purchase price payable by the Company will be $675,000 of which $100,000 shall
be paid in cash and the remainder in Common Stock of the Company. The number of
shares of Common Stock to be delivered to Prompt Medical shall be determined by

to secure Prompt Medical's guaranty of certain minimum revenue levels. Assuming
that these revenue levels are maintained, the cash portion of the purchase price
shall be shall be paid out in equal quarterly installments. The shares of Common
Stock will be held in escrow for the entire two year period.

         The Company anticipates entering into an employment agreement with
Judith Prussin, a shareholder and officer of Prompt Medical, whereby Ms. Prussin
will be retained to operate the business. Additionally, the Company anticipates
entering into a consulting agreement with Health Systems Development Corporation
whereby Health Systems will assist the Company in developing and expanding the
business.

of all due diligence matters and preparation of audited financial statements of
Prompt Medical satisfactory to the Company. There can be no assurance that the
transaction will be consummated or if consummated, upon the terms as described
