available through a private, branded electronic exchange to be developed for
Reseller.

     D. StoresOnline desires to (i) sell and license the Services to Reseller
for Reseller's resale and sublicense to end-user customers or, with the written
permission of StoresOnline, to other resellers and (ii) develop certain on-line

     E. Reseller desires to purchase and license the Services for resale to
end-user customers and shall use its unique resources to promote the Services as
hereinafter set forth.

                                    AGREEMENT

     NOW, THEREFORE, on the basis of the foregoing recitals, and in
consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto covenant and
agree as follows:

     1. Services.

     a. Scope of Agreement. This Agreement covers (i) the purchase, licensing,
promotion and sale of the Services and (ii) the design and development of the
Malls pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth on
the Addendum.

     b. License Grant; Sale of Services. StoresOnline grants to Reseller,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the right and license to
resell and sublicense (in the case of software products) the Services to
Reseller's end-user customers or, with the written permission of StoresOnline,
to other resellers. During the term of this Agreement, Reseller shall have the
exclusive right to resell and sublicense the "Get It Nashville" Mall to end-user
customers or other resellers whose principal place of business is in the
"Nashville, Tennessee Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area." In the case of

proprietary to StoresOnline, is copyrighted and that Reseller acquires no right,
title or interest in or to any such software by this Agreement. Reseller agrees

to, the Standard License Agreement Terms set forth on Exhibit A hereto, and to
cause each of its customers or other resellers to sublicense the Services

     c. Product Name. It is expressly agreed that the ownership and all right,
title and interest in and to the Services and any trademark, trade name, patent
or copyright relating to the Services is and will remain vested solely in
StoresOnline; provided, however, that as permitted by this Agreement, Reseller
may use any existing or future trademark, trade name, patent or copyright
relating to the Services, such use to be limited to promoting, selling,
installing or maintaining the Services; and provided, further, that as permitted
by this Agreement, the Services may be branded around Reseller's name, brand and
image. Reseller shall use its reasonable business efforts during the term of
this Agreement to protect StoresOnline's trademarks, trade names, patents and
copyrights, but shall not be required to initiate legal action against third
parties for any infringement thereof. Reseller shall notify StoresOnline of any
infringement as soon as practicable after becoming aware of any act which in
Reseller's judgment may constitute such infringement. Reseller shall not use,
directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, StoresOnline's name or any other
trade name or trademark that is owned or used by StoresOnline in connection with
any product other than StoresOnline's products, without the prior written
consent of StoresOnline.

     d. Mall Development. StoresOnline shall develop the Malls in accordance
with the terms and conditions set forth herein and on the Addendum. The Malls
shall be branded around Reseller's name, brand and image and shall link to the
Reseller's branded StoresOnline solution. The Malls will include appropriate
Uniform Resource Locator (URL) addresses, four to six featured products and
stores from various Reseller and third party advertisers, additional Reseller
and non-Reseller advertiser stores and products catalogued with text references,
and links to top-tier eCommerce sites. The Malls will also include an
appropriate search engine, commerce functionality, banner and other appropriate
advertising space and such other features as the parties shall mutually agree.
The Mall will be capable of cataloguing stores independently or in conjunction
with all other Malls developed hereunder, if any, as well as other malls which
belong to the StoresOnline electronic mall network. Reseller agrees and
understands that the storefronts of its end-user customers may be placed in one
or more electronic malls developed and/or operated by StoresOnline.

     2. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the
execution hereof and continue for an initial term of one (1) year from the date
of this Agreement.

     a. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated in
accordance with the provisions of Sections 3(b) or 11.

     b. Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve either party of any
obligations incurred prior to termination, including outstanding delivery and
payment obligations and other contractual commitments herein or mutually agreed
to from time to time by the parties in writing. The obligations set forth in
Sections 3d, 6b, 8, 10, 11a, 12c, 12e, 12f and 12h are expressly intended to
survive termination of this Agreement.

     3. Prices and Taxes.

     a. Prices for Services. StoresOnline shall charge Reseller's end-user
customers the one-time Store Set-up Price set forth on the Addendum.
StoresOnline shall charge Reseller the applicable Monthly Base Wholesale Price
set forth on the Addendum for each active storefront. Unless Reseller elects to
bill its customers directly in accordance with paragraph 6.c hereof, the Monthly
Base Wholesale Price shall be offset by StoresOnline against payments due to
Reseller in accordance with paragraph 6.b hereof.

     b. Price Adjustments for Services. The prices for the Services are subject
to change by StoresOnline at any time, and shall become effective ninety (90)
days after written notification of such change to Reseller; provided, however,
that Reseller may terminate this Agreement upon thirty days' written notice to
StoresOnline after Reseller's receipt of any price adjustments in accordance
with this Section 3(b).

     c. [ Omitted. ]

     d. Prices for Mall Development; Mall Revenue Split. All prices for Mall
design, development and operation provided hereunder shall be as set forth on
the Addendum. Reseller and StoresOnline shall divide the net revenue generated
from all Mall revenue sources on a [redacted] basis for revenue derived in
connection with this Agreement. Such revenue sources to be divided shall
include, but are not limited to: (i) eCommerce advertisers provided by
StoresOnline; (ii) the pro rata share of Mall banner advertising attributable to
Reseller; (iii) click-through revenue from eTailer sales; and (iv) revenue
generated from featured product sales. The parties hereto shall mutually agree
to pricing in the event advertising space is sold on a straight-buy basis and
such revenue shall be divided equally between the parties.

<PAGE>


     e. Taxes. All prices for any services or products supplied hereunder are
exclusive of any federal, state or local sales, use, excise, ad valorem or
personal property taxes levied, or any fines, forfeitures or penalties assessed
in connection therewith, as a result of this Agreement or the installation or
use of services or products hereunder (collectively, but exclusive of taxes
based upon StoresOnline's income, "Taxes"). Reseller or Reseller's customers, as
applicable, shall pay any and all such Taxes, or StoresOnline may pay such Taxes
for Reseller's account or Reseller's customers' account, in which case Reseller
shall be obligated to reimburse StoresOnline for amounts so paid. Any such Taxes
which are charged to or payable by StoresOnline will be invoiced to and paid by
Reseller in the manner set forth in Section 6 below. In the event that Reseller
directly invoices its customers pursuant to paragraph 6.c hereof, StoresOnline
shall not be responsible for the collection and payment of any such Taxes.

     4. Promotion. Reseller shall promote the Mall and the Services by
cablecasting two thirty second television commercials provided to Reseller by
StoresOnline which conform to Reseller's cable advertising guidelines. In the
event Reseller elects to produce additional commercials, it shall do so at its
own expense. All commercials promoting the services shall be cumulatively
cablecast at Reseller's sole expense a minimum of 500 times per broadcast month
throughout the Nashville, Tennessee broadcast market on cable channels of cable
television systems on which Reseller has a right to insert such advertisements.
Reseller shall use its reasonable business efforts to ensure that the
commercials are placed in even rotations on a variety of such cable television
channels.

     5. Customer Accounts.

     a. Customer Account Registration Process. The Services provided hereunder
include an online registration process that Reseller's customers will use to
establish storefront accounts with StoresOnline (the "Accounts"). In order to
establish an Account, Reseller's customers must complete a registration process
in accordance with the terms set forth on the StoresOnline web site, a copy of
which are attached hereto as Exhibit B. At the option of the customer,
registration may also be completed non-electronically. To establish an Account,
Reseller's customers must also provide credit card information and authorize the
payment of fees for Services on a monthly basis in advance. The general terms
and conditions for the use of Accounts shall be delivered to Reseller in advance
and shall be posted from time to time on the StoresOnline web site, or in the
event that, with Reseller's prior consent, StoresOnline establishes an
electronic exchange for Reseller, such information shall be delivered to
Reseller in advance and will be posted on Reseller's exchange. The terms and
conditions as posted shall, in all events and at all times, be binding upon
Reseller's customers who establish Accounts. The terms and conditions governing
such Accounts may be amended from time to time by StoresOnline, upon prior
written consent from Reseller.

     b. Continuation of Customer Accounts. Continuation of each customer Account
is subject to the timely payment of the monthly fees associated with each
respective such Account, and failure to do so shall constitute grounds for
StoresOnline to cancel and terminate an Account.

     6. Billing and Payment Terms.

     a. Invoicing for Services. Reseller shall from time to time provide
StoresOnline with a list of the Reseller prices charged for each class of
Accounts or for each Account. In the event Reseller requests that StoresOnline
invoice Reseller's customers directly, StoresOnline shall electronically invoice
Reseller's customers for the retail price of the Services charged by Reseller
and shall directly charge against the respective credit card accounts provided
by such customers for such purpose during the registration process. All
recurring fees due from customers shall be paid in advance and are due on the
first day of each month. In preparing the invoices and charging against the
applicable credit cards, StoresOnline shall use the most recent Reseller retail
prices provided to StoresOnline by Reseller for the Accounts invoiced.

<PAGE>


     b. Payment and Collection for Services. StoresOnline shall collect the
monthly fees set by Reseller from Reseller's customers and, after deducting any
monthly fees and expenses to which it is entitled hereunder, shall remit the
balance to Reseller on a monthly basis, together with a statement setting forth
the amounts collected, the amounts deducted and the total amount remitted. In
the event payment from Reseller's customers is not received by StoresOnline
within the specified time, an additional late charge of no more than one and one
half percent (1.5%) of the past due amount will be assessed by StoresOnline for
each thirty (30) days outstanding, prorated on a daily basis, which late charges
shall be due and payable to StoresOnline in full. All payments for Services
shall be made in United States dollars.

     c. Direct Reseller Billing for Services. Reseller may invoice its customers
directly for the Services provided hereunder. In the event that Reseller chooses
to bill its customers directly for the Services, Reseller shall remit directly
to StoresOnline the applicable Monthly Base Wholesale Price (per storefront), as
set forth in the Addendum. All such fees shall be paid in advance and are due on
the first day of each month.

     d. Billing for Mall Related Charges; Advertising and Related Revenues.
StoresOnline shall invoice Reseller directly for all charges due hereunder in
connection with the design and development of the Malls, which charges shall be
payable in accordance with the Addendum. All revenues generated from the Malls
(including advertising and related revenues) which are required to be divided
between StoresOnline and Reseller pursuant to paragraph 3(d) hereof shall be
invoiced and collected by StoresOnline. StoresOnline shall thereafter forward
all amounts due, if any, to Reseller (net 30 days) at the address provided on
the signature page hereto, together with a statement setting forth the total
amount collected, the amounts payable to Reseller and the total amount remitted,
and such other information as Reseller may reasonably request.

     7. Real Time Payment Processing. In the event that a customer wishes to use
the StoresOnline real-time credit card payment processing option, such customer
must establish a customer account with an FDIC network bank and must open an
account with a participating credit-card processor. Any such arrangement shall
be between the customer and StoresOnline.

     8. Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation of Liability; Warranties.

     a. Disclaimer of Warranty. EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED HEREIN, THERE

EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

     b. Limitation of Liability. Each party shall be responsible for its own
acts and omissions. NEITHER PARTY, NOR ITS RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS,
AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY
THIRD PARTY AS A RESULT OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE, WHETHER DIRECT
OR INDIRECT, RESULTING FROM DELAYS OR INTERRUPTIONS OF SERVICE DUE TO MECHANICAL
ELECTRICAL OR WIRE DEFECTS OR DIFFICULTIES, STORMS, STRIKES, WALK-OUTS,
EQUIPMENT OR SYSTEMS FAILURES, OR OTHER CAUSES OVER WHICH SUCH PARTY, ITS
DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS AGAINST WHOM LIABILITY IS
SOUGHT, HAVE NO REASONABLE CONTROL, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY THE
NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH PARTY.

     c. [ Omitted. ]

follows:

hereunder or a material breach by Reseller of its obligations hereunder shall
constitute an event of default by Reseller. Upon the occurrence of an event of
default by Reseller, StoresOnline shall provide Reseller with written notice

remedies available at law or in equity.

     b. StoresOnline's Default. The failure by StoresOnline to make any payment
required hereunder or a material breach by StoresOnline of its obligations

promptly return or destroy all Proprietary Information under its control and all
copies thereof.

these terms and conditions. Each party shall also comply with the United States
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and shall indemnify the other party from
violations of such act. This provision 12(f) shall survive any termination or
expiration of the Agreement.
