Item 4. Description of Securities

         Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

         Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officer

     The  Certificate  of   Incorporation  of  the  Company  provides  that  all
directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company shall be entitled to be
indemnified  by  the  Company  to the  fullest  extent  permitted  by  law.  The
Certificate of Incorporation also provides as follows:

     The corporation  shall, to the fullest extent  permitted by the Act, as the
same  may be  amended  and  supplemented,  indemnify  all  directors,  officers,
employees,  and agents of the corporation  whom it shall have power to indemnify
thereunder from and against any and all of the expenses,  liabilities,  or other
matters referred to therein or covered thereby.

     Such right to  indemnification or advancement of expenses shall continue as
to a person who has ceased to be a director,  officer, employee, or agent of the
corporation, and shall


                                        3





inure to the  benefit  of the  heirs,  executives,  and  administrators  of such

shall  have the  right to  purchase  and  maintain  insurance  on  behalf of its
directors, officers, and employees or agents to the full extent permitted by the
Act, as the same may be amended or supplemented.

Commission Policy

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of  1933  (the  "Act")  may be  permitted  to  directors,  officers  or  persons
controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions,  or otherwise, the
Company has been  advised  that in the opinion of the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed

         Not applicable.

Item 8.           Exhibits

     The  Exhibits  to this  registration  statement  are listed in the index to
Exhibits on page 8.

Item 9. Undertakings

(a)      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1) To file during any period in which  offers or sales are being  made,  a
post- effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

          (i) To include  any  prospectus  required  by Section  10(a)(3) of the
     securities Act 1933:

          (ii) To reflect in the  prospectus  any facts or events  arising after
     the  effective  date of this  Registration  Statement  (or the most  recent
     post-effective amendment thereof) which,  individually or in the aggregate,
     represent  a  fundamental  change  in the  information  set  forth  in this
     Registration Statement:

          (iii) To include any material  information with respect to the plan of
     distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any
     material  change  to  such  information  in  this  Registration  Statement;
     provided,  however,  that paragraph  (1)(i) and (I)(ii) do not apply if the
     information required to be included in a post-effective  amendment by those
     paragraph is contained in periodic reports filed by the


                                        4





     Company  pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15 (d) of the  Exchange Act that
     are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

     (2) That for the purpose of determining  any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933,  each such  post-effective  amendments  shall be deemed to be a new
registration  statement  relating to the  securities  offered  therein,  and the
offering of such  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     To remove from  registration by mean of a  post-effective  amendment any of
the securities being registered  hereunder that remain unsold at the termination
of the offering.

     The undersigned  Company hereby undertakes that for purposes of determining
any liability  under the  Securities  Act of 1933,  each filing of the Company's
annual report pursuant to Section 13 (a) or Section 15 (d) of the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable,  each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in the  Registration  Statement shall be
deemed to be a new  registration  statement  relating to the securities  offered
therein and the offering of such  securities  at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (3) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling  persons of
the Company pursuant to the above-described provisions or otherwise, the Company
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such  indemnification  is
against  public  policy  as  expressed  in the  Securities  act of 1933  and is,
therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities  (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or
paid  by a  director,  officer  or  controlling  person  of the  Company  in the
successful  defense of any  action,  suit or  proceeding)  is  asserted  by such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered,  the Company  will,  unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as  expressed in the  Securities  Act of 1933 and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.

     Termination:  This Agreement may be terminated by either Party upon written
notice to the other  Party for any  reason  which  shall be  effective  five (5)
business days from the date of such notice.  This Agreement  shall be terminated
immediately upon written notice for material breach of this Agreement.

discretion of the Consultant.

     Severability:  If any  provision of this  Consulting  Agreement is invalid,

enforceable in any court having  jurisdiction  thereof.  Arbitration shall occur

Agreement  shall be governed by  California  Law as applied to  residents of the
State of California relating to contracts executed in and to be performed solely
within the State of  California.  In the event any  dispute is  arbitrated,  the
prevailing Party (as determined by the arbiter(s))  shall be entitled to recover
that  Party's  reasonable   attorney's  fees  incurred  (as  determined  by  the

Parties as of the date first above written.

     Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-8

Gentleman:

     I have acted as counsel for  HouseHold  Direct,  Inc. (the  "Company"),  in
connection  with  the  preparation  and  filing  of the  Company's  Registration
statement  on Form S-8  under  the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as  amended,  (the
"Registration Statement"), relating to 26,000,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock, 0.001 par value, (the "Common Stock"), issuable pursuant to the Company's
Stock   Compensation   Plan,   (the  "Plan")  and  Consulting   Agreements  (the
"Agreements").

     I have  examined the  Certificate  of  Incorporation,  as amended,  and the
By-Laws of the Company and all amendments  thereto,  the Registration  Statement
and  originals,  or copies  certified  to my  satisfaction,  of such records and
meetings,  written  actions  in lieu of  meetings,  or  resolutions  adopted  at
meetings,  of the  directors  of the  Company,  and  such  other  documents  and
instruments  as in my judgment  are  necessary  or  appropriate  to enable me to
render the opinions expressed below.

     Based on the foregoing examination,  I am of the opinion that the shares of
Common Stock issuable with the Plan and the Agreements are duly  authorized and,
when  issued in  accordance  with the Plan and the  Agreements,  will be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

     Further,  I consent  to the  filing of this  opinion  as an  exhibit to the
Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Rebecca Wilson
Rebecca Wilson, Esq.

                             HOUSEHOLD DIRECT, INC.

                          2002 STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN

     1.  Purpose of the Plan.  The purpose of the 2002 Stock  Compensation  Plan
("Plan") of HouseHold Direct,  Inc., a Delaware  corporation,  ("Company") is to
provide  the  Company  with a  means  of  compensating  selected  key  employees

     2.1 Award or Sales of shares.  The  Company's  Board shall (a) select those
key employees (including officers),  directors and consultants to whom shares of
the  Company's  Common  Stock shall be awarded or sold,  and (b)  determine  the
number of shares to be awarded or sold;  the time or times at which shares shall
be awarded or sold;  whether the shares to be awarded or sold will be registered
with the  Securities and Exchange  Commission;  and such  conditions,  rights of
repurchase,  rights of first refusal or other transfer restrictions as the Board
may  determine.  Each  award or sale of shares  under the Plan may or may not be
evidenced  by a written  agreement  between  the Company and the persons to whom
shares of the Company's Common Stock are awarded or sold.

     2.2  Consideration  for Shares.  Shares of the Company's Common Stock to be
awarded or sold under the Plan shall be issued for such consideration,  having a
value not less than par value thereof,  as shall be determined from time to time
by the Board in its sole discretion.

     2.3 Board Procedures.  The Board from time to time may adopt such rules and
regulations  for carrying out the purposes of the Plan as it may deem proper and
in the best  interests  of the  Company.  The Board  shall  keep  minutes of its
meetings  and  records of its  actions.  A majority  of the members of the Board
shall  constitute a quorum for the transaction of any business by the Board. The
Board may act at any time by an affirmative  vote of a majority of those members
voting.  Such vote shall be taken at a meeting (which may be conducted in person
or by any  telecommunication  medium)  or by written  consent  of Board  members
without a meeting.

     2.4 Finality of Board Action. The Board shall resolve all questions arising
under the Plan.  Each  determination,  interpretation,  or other  action made or
taken by the Board shall be final and  conclusive  and  binding on all  persons,
including, without




                                       14





limitation, the Company, its stockholders,  the Board and each of the members of
the Board.

     2.5 Non-Liability of Board Members. No Board member shall be liable for any
action or  determination  made by him in good faith with  respect to the Plan or
any shares of the Company's Common Stock sold or awarded under it.

     2.6 Board Power to amend,  Suspend,  or Terminate the Plan.  The Board may,
from time to time,  make such changes in or additions to the Plan as it may deem
proper and in the best interests of the Company and its Stockholders.  The Board
may also suspend or terminate the Plan at any time,  without notice,  and in its
sole discretion.

     3.  Shares  Subject to the Plan.  For  purposes  of the Plan,  the Board of
Directors is authorized to sell or award up to 25,279,509  shares and/or options
of the Company's Common Stock, .001 par value per share ("Common Stock").

     4. Participants.  All key employees  (including  officers) and directors of
and consultants to the Company and any of its subsidiaries  (sometimes  referred
to herein as ("Participants") are eligible to participate in the Plan. A copy of
this Plan shall be delivered to all  requesting  participants,  together  with a
copy of any  Board  resolutions  authorizing  the  issuance  of the  shares  and
establishing the terms and conditions,  if any, relating to the sale or award of
such shares.

     5. Rights and Obligations of  Participants.  The award or sale of shares of
Common Stock shall be conditioned upon the participant  providing to the Board a
written representation that, at the time of such award or sale, it is the intent
of such person(s) to acquire the shares for investment  only and not with a view
toward  distribution.   The  certificate  for  unregistered  shares  issued  for
investment  shall be restricted by the Company as to transfer unless the Company
receives  an opinion of counsel  satisfactory  to the Company to the effect that
such  restriction is not necessary  under the  pertaining  law. The providing of
such  representation  and such  restriction on transfer shall not,  however,  be
required  upon any person's  receipt of shares of Common Stock under the Plan in
the event that, at the time of award or sale, the shares shall be (i) covered by
an effective and current  registration  statement  under the  Securities  Act of
1933, as amended,  and (ii) either qualified or exempt from qualification  under
applicable  state  securities  laws.  The  Company  shall,  however,   under  no
circumstances  be required to sell or issue any shares under the Plan if, in the
opinion of the  Board,  (i) the  issuance  of such  shares  would  constitute  a
violation by the  participant or the Company of any applicable law or regulation
of  any  governmental  authority,  or  (ii)  the  consent  or  approval  of  any
governmental  body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection
with, the issuance of such shares.

     6. Payment of Shares.





                                       15





     (a) The  entire  purchase  price of shares  issued  under the Plan shall be
payable in lawful  money of the  United  States of America at the time when such
shares are purchased, except as provided in subsection (b) below.

     (b) At the discretion of the Board,  Shares may be issued under the Plan in
consideration of services rendered.

     7.  Adjustments.  If  the  outstanding  Common  Stock  shall  be  hereafter
increased or decreased,  or changed into or exchanged for a different  number or
kind of shares or other securities of the Company or of another corporation,  by
reason  of  a  recapitalization,   reclassification,   reorganization,   merger,
consolidation,  share  exchange,  or other  business  combination  in which  the
Company is the surviving  parent  corporation,  stock  split-up,  combination of
shares, or dividend or other distribution  payable in capital stock or rights to
acquire capital stock,  appropriate adjustment shall be made by the Board in the
number and kind of shares which may be granted under the Plan.

     8. Tax Withholding.  As a condition to the purchase or award of shares, the
participant  shall  make such  arrangements  as the Board  may  require  for the
satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations
that may arise in connection with such purchase or award.

     9. Terms of the Plan.

     9.1 Effective Date. The Plan shall become effective on January 1, 2002.

     9.2  Termination  Date. The Plan shall  terminate at Midnight on January 1,
2004,  and no shares  shall be awarded or sold after that time.  The Plan may be
suspended or terminated at any earlier time by the Board within the  limitations
set forth in Section 2.6.

     10.  Non-Exclusivity of the Plan. Nothing contained in the Plan is intended
to amend,  modify,  or  rescind  any  previously  approved  compensation  plans,
programs or options entered into by the Company. This Plan shall be construed to
be in addition to and  independent of any and all such other  arrangements.  The
adoption  of the Plan by the  Board  shall  not be  construed  as  creating  any
limitations  on the power of  authority  of the Board to adopt,  with or without
stockholder approval, such additional or other compensation  arrangements as the
Board may from time to time deem desirable.

     11.  Governing Law. The Plan and all rights and obligations  under it shall
be  construed  and  enforced  in  accordance  with  the  laws  of the  state  of
California.
