EXHIBIT 10.52
SECOND AMENDMENT
TO
MERGER AGREEMENT
BY AND BETWEEN
NATIONAL DIAGNOSTICS, INC.,
A FLORIDA CORPORATION
AND
AMERICAN ENTERPRISE SOLUTIONS, INC.,
A FLORIDA CORPORATION
EFFECTIVE APRIL 29, 1998
A-63

SECOND AMENDMENT
This Second Amendment (the "2nd Amendment") is made and entered into as
of this 29th day of April, 1998 by and between NATIONAL DIAGNOSTICS, INC., a
Florida corporation ("NDI" or the "Company") and AMERICAN ENTERPRISE SOLUTIONS,
INC., a Florida corporation ("AES").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, NDI and AES have entered into that certain Merger Agreement
dated February 23, 1998, as amended by that certain First Amendment dated March
17th, 1998 (the "Agreement"), pursuant to which it is contemplated that AES will
be merged (the "Merger") with and into NDI under the terms and conditions
specified in the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, AES and NDI have mutually agreed to proceed with the Merger
via the implementation and effectuation of the terms and conditions set forth
hereinbelow.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth herein, and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound,
agree that the Agreement is hereby amended to incorporate and reflect the
following facts, terms and conditions:
AES currently owns an aggregate of 5,786,570 shares of Company
Common Stock and 368,815 shares of Company Preferred Stock. Each share
of Company Preferred Stock is convertible into 44.11 shares of Company
Common Stock. An additional 3,093,430 shares of Company Common Stock
are owned by stockholders other than AES. Therefore, at the present
time, an aggregate of 8,880,000 shares of Company Common Stock are
issued and outstanding. In conjunction with the Merger, the
A-64

Company proposes to issue a stock dividend to holders of Company Common
Stock based on the following formula:
x = $3.50 - y
---------
y
where x = the dividend (i.e., the number of additional
shares of Company Common Stock to be issued on each
outstanding share of Company Common Stock).
$3.50 = the valuation of each share of Company Common Stock,
based on projected revenues for 1998.
y = the average market price of each share of Company
Common Stock during the 5 business days immediately
preceding the closing date.
For example, if y = $1.125, each outstanding share of Company Common Stock will
receive a dividend of [3.50 - 1.125] = 2.11 shares of Company Common Stock.
------------
1.125
The declaration and payment of such a dividend will require
the availability of approximately 18,745,680 additional shares of
Company Common Stock. However, because the Company's Articles of
Incorporation currently provide for the issuance of a maximum of
9,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock, of which amount a total of
8,880,000 shares have already been issued and are currently
outstanding, at the present time the Company can only issue an
additional 120,000 shares of Company Common Stock. It will therefore be
necessary to amend the Company's Articles of Incorporation to, among
other things, provide for the issuance of at least an additional
18,625,680 shares of Company Common Stock.
After payment of the contemplated stock dividend, a total of
27,505,680 shares of Company Common Stock will be issued and
outstanding; 18,002,019 of these shares

(approximately 65%) will be owned by AES, and the remaining 9,623,661
shares (approximately 35%) will be owned by other stockholders of NDI.
Shortly after payment of the stock dividend described above,
but before the closing of the Merger, the Company will effect a stock
combination transaction of all issued and outstanding Company Common
Stock in accordance with the provisions of Section 607.10025 and
607.1003 of the Florida Business Corporation Act (the "FBCA") such that
AES will own approximately 2,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock and
the other stockholders of NDI will own approximately 1,000,000 shares
of Company Common Stock.
In conjunction with the Merger, the approximately 2,000,000
shares of Company Common Stock and 368,815 shares of Company Preferred
Stock owned by AES will be canceled.
It is anticipated that on the date of closing the Merger,
there will be approximately 6,000,000 shares of AES Common Stock issued
and outstanding. In conjunction with and upon consummation of the
Merger, each outstanding share of AES Common Stock will be exchanged
for one share of Company Common Stock. As a result of the Merger, the
AES stockholders will own approximately 6,000,000 shares (85.7%) of the
issued and outstanding Company Common Stock, while other NDI
stockholders will own approximately 1,000,000 (14.3%) of the issued and
outstanding Company Common Stock.

which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute but
