Payment.

                          3.3.3  Replacement Accounts.

Replacement Accounts.  Each Replacement Account must be located in Buyer's
existing market areas of Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, New Mexico
and Nevada or in Northwestern Idaho, and shall meet the representations agreed
to herein which are applicable to the Qualified Accounts, including without
limitation, the definitions of Alarm Accounts and QRR, as of the date of
transfer of the Replacement Account.  Buyer will not accept as Replacement
Accounts any accounts which are subject to oral agreements or which are more
than 30 days past due as of the date of transfer to Buyer.  In addition, on the
date each Replacement Account is transferred to Company, there shall be no more
than two (2) months of either free monitoring service or of prepaid monitoring

a form contract expressly approved by Buyer, one utilized by Buyer or a form
substantially similar to Buyer's form contract; provided however, that Xxxx
Xxxxxx Enterprises, Inc. may submit up to one hundred (100) alarm accounts
documented on Company's current forms, assuming they meet the other conditions

Stockholders shall also deliver to Company all contracts, records, information
and documents which Buyer may reasonably require in order to take possession
and control of the Replacement Account and to provide monitoring service.
Stockholders shall execute such documents as Buyer shall reasonably require to
evidence Company's ownership of the Replacement Accounts and the alarm system
equipment related thereto if it is owned by Stockholders.  The Replacement
Accounts will be monitored by Alarm Monitoring Systems on one of the telephone
lines which will be transferred to Buyer in accordance with the agreements
attached as Schedule 8.4.  In the event the Replacement Account must be
reprogrammed in order to be monitored by Buyer's central monitoring station,
Stockholders shall reprogram, at their cost, each Replacement Account within
fifteen (15) days after transfer to Company of the Replacement Account.

                          3.3.4   Transfer of Lost QRR Customer Files to
Stockholders.

                          Within fifteen (15) days after the end of each month
during the Guaranty Period, Buyer will transfer to Stockholders, without
recourse or warranty of any kind, the customer

files for those Subscribers whose accounts have been canceled or terminated
during the Guaranty Period and for which an adjustment to the Deferred Payment
was made.  Buyer reserves the right to collect past-due charges, Buyer's
customary cancellation fee, and any other amounts due under the Contracts with
the Subscribers, on any terms or conditions deemed acceptable by Buyer, in its
sole discretion.  Buyer makes no representations regarding the canceled or
terminated accounts transferred to Stockholders hereunder, and Stockholders
acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall have no liability to Stockholders if the
Subscribers of these canceled or terminated accounts fail to renew, reinstate
or reaffirm their alarm account contracts with Stockholders.

                          3.3.5  Payment of Balance of Deferred Payment.

                          Buyer shall instruct Escrow Agent to pay to
Stockholders in sufficient shares of Pro One Stock, in accordance with their
ownership percentage of SHI Stock,  seventy (70) days after the end of the
Guaranty Period any positive Deferred Payment balance (after any adjustments
under Section 3.3.2) remaining after subtracting the QRR Guaranty Payment.
Seventy (70) days after the end of the Guaranty Period, Escrow Agent shall pay
to Buyer in sufficient shares of Pro One Stock the amount of the Deferred
Payment equal to the QRR Guaranty Payment and such shares shall thereupon be
canceled by Parent.  In the event the share certificates of Pro One Stock need
to be reissued in order to allow distribution of the QRR Guaranty Payment to
Buyer and distribution of the remaining positive Deferred Payment to
Stockholders, Escrow Agent shall deliver to Buyer sufficient share certificates
of Pro One Stock, to enable Buyer to obtain sufficient shares of Pro One Stock
reissued, to the extent practicable, one-half in increments of one thousand
(1000) share certificates and one-half in increments of five thousand (5000)
share certificates to make the payments due to the parties hereunder.  Rather
than issue fractional shares of Pro One Stock, Buyer will pay to the Escrow
Agent in cash the amount of any fractional shares of Pro One Stock to which any
of the Stockholders would be entitled.  For purposes of calculating the number
of shares of Pro One Stock which from which the QRR Guaranty Payment will be
deducted, each share of Pro One Stock will be valued at the Closing Value,
rather than the current market value or trading price at the end of the
Guaranty Period.  Any disputes regarding the QRR Guaranty Payment and Deferred
Payment shall be resolved in accordance with Section 15.  Stockholders shall
notify Buyer and Escrow Agent of any dispute relating to the QRR Guaranty
Payment within fourteen (14) days after delivery of the schedule.  If there is
such a dispute, the Escrow Agent shall not deliver to any party any payment of
the Deferred Payment or QRR Guaranty Payment, except for any sums mutually
agreed to by Stockholders and Buyer, until the dispute has been resolved by
arbitration and all time periods for appealing any arbitrator's award have
expired or upon written confirmation to the Escrow Agent that the parties have
resolved the dispute.  If the QRR Guaranty Payment exceeds the Deferred
Payment, then Buyer shall have no obligation to pay any of the Deferred Payment
to Stockholders, and Stockholders shall have no obligation to pay to Buyer the
amount by which the QRR Guaranty Payment exceeds the Deferred Payment.

                 5.17     Benefit Plans.

                          5.17.1  Employee Benefit Plans.

                          Schedule 5 identifies each "employee benefit plan,"
as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended ("ERISA"), and each employment agreement, compensation
agreement, bonus, commission or similar arrangement, and fringe benefit
arrangement which is maintained, administered or contributed to by Company or
any of its affiliates (as defined below) and covers any employee or former
employee of Company or any affiliate or under which Company or any affiliate
has any liability.  Copies (or, if not in writing, detailed summaries) of such
plans (and, if applicable, related trust agreements) and all amendments thereto
and written interpretations thereof have been furnished to Buyer together with
(to the extent existing) (a) the most recent annual report prepared in
connection with any such plan and (b) the most recent actuarial valuation
report prepared in connection with any such plan.  Such plans are referred to
collectively herein as the "Employee Plans."  For purposes of this Section 5.17
only, an "affiliate" of any person or entity means any other person or entity,
which, together with such person or entity, would be treated as a single
employer under Section 414 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") or Title
IV of ERISA.  The only Employee Plans which individually or collectively would
constitute an "employee pension benefit plan" as defined in Section 3(2) of
ERISA are identified as such in Exhibit 2.10(a).

                          5.17.2  Multiemployer Plans.

                          No Employee Plan constitutes a "multiemployer plan"
as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA (a "Multiemployer Plan"), no Employee Plan
is maintained in connection with any trust described in Section 501(c)(9) of
the Code and no Employee Plan is subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of
the Code.  If Company or any of its affiliates ever maintained or was obligated
to contribute to a Multiemployer Plan or a plan subject to Title IV of ERISA or
Section 412 of the Code, any withdrawal or other liability under Title IV of
ERISA with respect to such plan has been fully satisfied.  Nothing done or
omitted to be done and no transaction or holding of any asset under or in
connection with any Employee Plan has or will make Company or any officer or
director thereof, subject to any liability under Title I of ERISA or liable for
any tax pursuant to Section 4975 of the Code.

                          5.17.3  Qualification of Employee Plan.

                          Each Employee Plan which is intended to be qualified
under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and has been so qualified
during the period from its adoption to date, and each trust forming a part
thereof is exempt from tax pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code.  Company has
furnished to Buyer copies of the most recent Internal Revenue Service
determination letters, if any, with respect to each such Employee Plan.  Each
Employee Plan has been maintained

   22
in substantial compliance with its terms and with the requirements prescribed
by any and all statutes, orders, rules and regulations, including but not
limited to ERISA and the Code, which are applicable to such Employee Plan.

                          5.17.4  Effect of this Agreement.

                          There is no contract, agreement, plan or arrangement
covering any employee or former employee of Company or any affiliate that
would, as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, (A) result in any payment (including, without limitation, severance,
unemployment compensation, golden parachute, bonus or otherwise) becoming due
to any director or employee of Company from the Company, under any Employee
Plan or otherwise, (B) materially increase any benefits otherwise payable under
any Employee Plan, (C) result in the acceleration of the time of payment or
vesting of any such benefits, or (D) otherwise obligate Company or any
affiliate to pay any additional compensation, including severance pay, that
would not be deductible pursuant to the terms of Sections 162(a)(1) or 280G of
the Code.

                          5.17.5  Post Retirement Benefits.

                          Neither Company nor any of its affiliates maintain or
administer any "defined benefit plans" for the benefit of their employees.
Neither Company nor its affiliates have any projected liability in respect of
post retirement health, life and medical benefits for retired employees of
Company or its affiliates, other than any liability to provide benefits under
Title I, Part 6 of ERISA, if any.  Other than provisions of applicable law, to
the best knowledge of Stockholders, no condition exists that would prevent
Company from amending or terminating any applicable Employee Plan.

                          5.17.6  Plan Maintenance Expenses.

                          Other than any increase in premiums imposed by the
insurer under an employee welfare benefit plan (as defined in ERISA Section
3(1)), there has been no amendment to, written interpretation or announcement
(whether or not written) by Company or any of its affiliates relating to, or
change in employee participation or coverage under, any Employee Plan which
would materially increase the expense of maintaining such Employee Plan above
the level of the expense incurred in respect thereof for the most recent fiscal
year.

                 5.18     Form Contracts.

                 Included in Schedule 5 is a true and correct copy of each type

alarm services requested by Subscribers or required to be provided pursuant to
the Contracts.

                 Stockholders have provided Buyer with a copy of the Company's
latest Payroll Register, the employee's name, whether such employee holds any
state-issued licenses in connection with his/her employment, hire-in date,
position, current salary and accrued vacation entitlements.  Except as set
forth in the employee information provided to Buyer, no bonuses, severance,
medical expense reimbursement, additional compensation (other than salary or
wage increases in the ordinary course of business) or other like benefits were

the Closing Date, or are payable to any such employees in respect of any other

monitoring charges or service charges payable by the Company's retail
Subscribers, other than for additions or changes in services or protection, nor
since August 1, 1996, has the Company made any capital expenditures (excluding
capitalized labor and equipment costs for alarm system installation) which in
the aggregate exceed $10,000.

                 5.21     No Defaults.

                 The Company is not in default, or alleged to be in default
under any material agreement, license or obligation relating to the Assets
and/or Assumed Liabilities.  Except for delinquent payments by some of its
Subscribers, no other party to any such agreement, license, or obligation is in
default thereunder and there exists no condition or event which, after notice
or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default by any party to any such
agreement, license or obligation.

                          Claim; and

                 (c)      A Buyer's Claim pursuant to Section 9.1(ii) for a
                          breach of Section 17 must be submitted before the
                          expiration of the applicable statute of limitations

                 9.3      Buyer's Claim Basket and Liability Limit.

                 With the exception of Buyer's Claims under Section 9.1(iv),
Stockholders' obligations with respect to indemnity pursuant to this section
shall be limited to the extent that the aggregate of such Buyer's Claims must
first exceed $50,000 ("Buyer's Claim Basket").  In no event shall the total
liability of the Stockholders for all Buyer's Claims exceed the Purchase Price
("Liability Limit"); provided however, any Buyer's Claim resulting from
Stockholders' (or their designee's) failure to pay or otherwise satisfy any of
the Excluded Liabilities shall not be included in the Buyer's Claim Basket or
Liability Limit described in this Section 9.3.

                 9.4      Notice; Tendering Defense to Stockholders.

                 Stockholders' obligation to indemnify and reimburse Buyer

Buyer shall provide Stockholders with notice of such litigation within





Page 31 -  AGREEMENT FOR STOCK PURCHASE
   32
twenty (20) days after receipt of such complaint by Buyer; and provided,
however, that Stockholders shall have the right to defend any Buyer's Claim
made by a third party, and Stockholders shall have the right to control the
defense, settlement or compromise of such Buyer's Claim and Buyer shall have
the right to be kept currently informed and to reasonably participate in all
aspects of such litigation to the extent deemed necessary to protect Buyer's
interest, unless the amount of damages demanded or alleged or prayed for in the
complaint (or if no damages are demanded, alleged or prayed for in the
complaint, the damages reasonably likely to result from such a Buyer's Claim)
exceeds the Stockholders' Liability Limit, as such term is defined in Section
9.3, in which case the party with the greatest economic risk shall have the
right to such control, subject to the other party's right of information and
participation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, Buyer shall control the defense, settlement or compromise of any
Buyer's Claim where the damages demanded or alleged or prayed for in the
complaint (or if no damages are demanded or alleged or prayed for in the
complaint, the damages reasonably likely to result from such a Buyer's Claim)
do not exceed the Buyer's Claim Basket, and after the Buyer's Claim Basket has
been exceeded, Buyer shall control the defense, settlement or compromise of any
Buyer's Claim where the damages demanded or alleged or prayed for in the
complaint do not exceed the sum of $2,500, and Stockholders shall have no right
to be kept informed or to participate in such litigation.

                 In addition, Stockholders will indemnify and hold harmless
Buyer from, for and against any costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees
at trial and in any appeal) which it may suffer or incur in connection with
enforcement of the indemnification obligation of the Stockholders hereunder.

                 9.5      Right of Setoff.

                 In addition to the rights of Buyer under Sections 9.1 through
9.4, Stockholders agree that Buyer shall have the right at any time following
the Closing Date to setoff against any amounts payable to Stockholders under
this Agreement an amount equal to any and all losses, damages, liabilities,
costs and expenses incurred by Buyer, including without limitation, reasonable
attorney fees, for which Buyer has a right to indemnification under Sections
9.1 through 9.4.

         10.     Indemnification by Buyer.

                 10.1     Indemnification.

                 Notwithstanding any investigation by Stockholders, Buyer
agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Stockholders, including
Stockholders' agents (collectively, the "Stockholder Parties") from and
against, and to reimburse the Stockholder Parties with respect to, any and all
losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including interest, penalties
and reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the Stockholder Parties, or any of
them, by reason of or arising out of or in connection with:  (i) any breach or
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Buyer made in





Page 32 -  AGREEMENT FOR STOCK PURCHASE
   33
this Agreement or the schedules or exhibits hereto, (ii) the nonfulfillment or
inadequate performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of Buyer under
this Agreement, or (iii) any liabilities of the Company to third parties of any
nature arising out of any act performed or state of facts suffered to exist by
the Company on or after the Closing Date.  This indemnification extends to any
losses suffered or costs incurred by the Stockholder Parties arising out of or
relating to claims pursuant to this Section 10.1, including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, whether or not a lawsuit is commenced
by any third party.  Any claim for indemnification by any of the Stockholder
Parties pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall hereinafter be referred to as a
"Stockholders' Claim."

                 10.2     Survivability.

                 In order for any Stockholder Parties to be entitled to
indemnification for a Stockholders' Claim as provided for in Section 10.1, a
notice of Stockholders' Claim must be submitted to Buyer within the following
applicable time limitations:

                 (a)      Except in cases of fraud or intentional
                          misrepresentation, a Stockholders' Claim pursuant to
                          Section 10.1(i) must be submitted on or before
                          December 31, 1997; and

                 (b)      All other Stockholders' Claims must be submitted on 
                          or before December 31, 1999.

                 10.3     Stockholders' Claim Basket and Liability Limit.

                 Buyer's obligations with respect to indemnity pursuant to this
section shall be limited to the extent that the aggregate of such Stockholders'
Claims must first exceed $50,000 ("Stockholders' Claim Basket").  In no event
shall the total liability of the Buyer for all Stockholders' Claims exceed the
Purchase Price ("Buyer's Liability Limit"); provided however, any Stockholders'
Claim resulting from Buyer's (or its designee's) failure to pay or otherwise
satisfy any of the Assumed Liabilities up to the amounts set forth in Schedule
1.4 shall not be included in the Stockholders' Claim Basket or Buyer's
Liability Limit described in this Section 10.3.

                 10.4     Notice; Tendering Defense to Buyer.

                 Buyer's obligation to indemnify and reimburse Stockholders
hereunder is subject to prior written thirty (30) day notice by Stockholders of
a Stockholders' Claim, unless the Stockholders' Claim involves litigation, in
which case Stockholders shall provide Buyer with notice of such litigation
within twenty (20) days after receipt of such complaint by Stockholders;
provided, however, that Buyer shall have the right to defend any Stockholders'
Claim made by a third party, and Buyer shall have the right to control the
defense, settlement or compromise of such Stockholders' Claim and Stockholders
shall have the right to be kept currently informed and to





Page 33 -  AGREEMENT FOR STOCK PURCHASE
   34
reasonably participate in all aspects of such litigation to the extent deemed
necessary to protect Stockholders' interests, unless the amount of damages
demanded or alleged or prayed for in the complaint (or if no damages are
demanded, alleged or prayed for in the complaint, the damages reasonably likely
to result from such a Stockholders' Claim) exceeds the Buyer's Liability Limit,
in which case the party with the greatest economic risk shall have the right to
such control, subject to the other party's right of information and
participation.  Provided, however, that Stockholders shall control the defense,
settlement or compromise of any Stockholders' Claim where the damages demanded
or alleged or prayed for in the complaint (or if no damages are demanded or
alleged or prayed for in the complaint, the damages reasonably likely to result
from such a Stockholders' Claim) do not exceed the Stockholders' Claim Basket,
and after the Stockholders' Claim Basket has been exceeded, Stockholders shall
control the defense, settlement or compromise of any Stockholders' Claim where
the damages alleged or prayed for in the complaint do not exceed the sum of
$2,500, and Buyer shall have no right to be kept informed or to participate in
such litigation.

                 In addition, Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless
Stockholders from, for and against any costs and expenses (including attorneys'
fees at trial and in any appeal) which they may suffer or incur in connection
with enforcement of the indemnification obligation of the Buyer hereunder.

         11.     Conditions Precedent to Obligations of Buyer.

         16.     Transition Support.

         After the Closing Date and continuing for a period of no less than

the Closing Date) reasonably available to respond to Buyer's questions as
necessary to assist Buyer during such period with the transition of Assets,
business and operations to Buyer as a result of the sale contemplated hereby.
There will be no charge to Buyer for such transition assistance, other than
reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses directly incurred in
connection with any travel or other expenses undertaken at the written request
of Buyer.  The assumed business names listed on Schedule 1.3(b) have been

         17.     Nonsolicitation and Confidentiality.

                 17.1     Nonsolicitation Covenants.

                 For this Section 17.1 only, the term "Alarm Accounts" shall
mean only the Qualified Accounts.  Stockholders agree that for ten (10) years
following the date of this Agreement, Stockholders will not, individually or as
a director, officer, partner, limited partner, member, employee, agent,
representative, stockholder, creditor or consultant or in any other capacity
with any business, in any manner, directly or indirectly, in or with regard to
any Alarm Accounts in the States of Oregon, Idaho and Washington, solicit,
divert or knowingly accept orders for sale or leasing, installation,





Page 38 -  AGREEMENT FOR STOCK PURCHASE
   39
maintenance or monitoring of alarm systems or for providing armed response
services from any Subscribers whose Alarm Accounts are owned by the Company as
of the Closing Date.  Stockholders also agree for that ten (10) years following
the date of this Agreement, if any of the Stockholders individually or as a
director, officer, partner, limited partner, member, employee, agent,
representative, stockholder, creditor or consultant or in any other capacity
with any business, in any manner, directly or indirectly, in or with regard to
any Alarm Accounts in the States of Oregon, Idaho and Washington, solicit,
divert or unknowingly accept orders for sale or leasing, installation,
maintenance or monitoring of alarm systems or for providing armed response
services from any Subscribers whose Alarm Accounts are owned by the Company as
of the Closing Date, that Stockholders shall be responsible for notifying Buyer
promptly (but in no event more than thirty (30) days after discovery of such
Subscriber's alarm account) and shall, upon request of Buyer, transfer to Buyer
such Subscriber's alarm account, at no cost to Buyer, plus all amounts prepaid
by such Subscriber for monitoring and other services to be performed by Buyer
after the date of such transfer.  Before accepting new customers at Xxxx Xxxxxx
or any other alarm companies in which either Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Xx. or Xxxxxxx
X.  XxxXxxxxxxx has any ownership interest or management responsibility, they
shall determine if the new customer's address is the same address as any of the
Subscribers, and shall not, within ten (10) years after the date of this
Agreement, accept such new customer if the customers' Alarm Account was owned
by Company.  The parties agree that general advertising which is not directed
to or targeted to the Subscribers shall not violate the nonsolicitation
restrictions set forth herein, so long as all other restrictions against
diverting or knowingly accepting orders for sale or leasing, installation,
maintenance or monitoring of alarm systems or for providing armed response
services are observed.  Stockholders also agree that, for five (5) years
following the date of this Agreement, Stockholders will not, individually or as
a director, officer, partner, limited partner, member, employee, agent,
representative, stockholder, creditor or consultant or in any other capacity
with any business, recruit, offer to employ, or otherwise solicit the
employment of any person who was at any time within three (3) months prior to
such action an employee of Buyer or to whom the Company has extended an offer
to continue their employment after the Closing Date; provided however, that a
general classified advertisement which is not directed to Buyer's or Company's
employees shall not violate the restrictions set forth herein so long as no
offer of employment is made to any employee of Buyer or Company or to a person
who was an employee of Buyer or Company within the previous three (3) months.
Buyer recognizes that Stockholders own and operate a subcontract central
station (AMS) and this Agreement places no restrictions on alarm company
customers of AMS where Stockholders have no other financial interest in the
alarm company.

                 17.2     Nondisclosure of Confidential Information.

                 Stockholders agree to maintain as secret and confidential all
"Confidential Information," as defined herein, and agree not to use, disclose,
transfer, sell, or make such information available to any successors or third
parties, except as authorized in advance and in writing by Buyer or in the
following circumstances:  (a)  as required in order to comply with any
subpoena, court order or applicable law, provided that the disclosing party
shall use its best efforts to give Buyer prior written notice of such
disclosure; or (b)  if such information becomes publicly available not due to
the fault of Stockholders.  The term "Confidential Information" means any trade
secrets, proprietary or other information which is either reasonably designated
in writing to Stockholders as confidential by Buyer or reasonably known by
Stockholders to be confidential relating to the Alarm Accounts or Assets,
including without limitation, any of the following information, which is hereby
designated as confidential:  any customer or Subscriber lists; any lists,





Page 39 -  AGREEMENT FOR STOCK PURCHASE
   40
notes, or compilations which contain the names, addresses, telephone numbers,
or any contract information for or relating to the Subscribers; monitoring
information and Subscriber codes and passwords; and copies of contracts,
agreements, and related documents between Company and the Subscribers under the
Alarm Accounts.

                 17.3     Enforcement.

                 Stockholders acknowledge and agree that the time, scope,
geographic area and other provisions of Sections 17.1 and 17.2 have been
specifically negotiated by sophisticated parties and specifically hereby agree
that such time, scope, geographic area and other provisions are reasonable
under the circumstances.  Stockholders further agree that if, at any time,
despite the express agreement of the parties hereto, a court of competent
jurisdiction holds that any portion of Sections 17.1 and 17.2 are unenforceable
for any reason, the maximum restrictions of time, scope or geographic area
reasonable under the circumstances, as determined by such court, will be
substituted for any such restrictions held unenforceable.  Stockholders agree
that Buyer will suffer irreparable harm if any of the Stockholders fail to
comply with the provisions of Section 17 this Agreement and that Buyer will be
entitled to injunctive relief to enforce the terms of this Agreement in
addition to any other remedies available to Buyer.

         18.     Miscellaneous.

                 18.1     Notices.

                 Any and all notices, demands or other communications required
