financial advisory and investment banking services to PhotoLoft and any person,
corporation or other entity formed by or affiliated with such person (the
"Company") which participates in, or which was formed for the purpose of
effecting a Transaction (as hereinafter defined) and effecting a certain
Financing as hereinafter described. In the context of this Agreement,
"Transaction" shall mean, whether effected in one transaction or -a series of
transactions, (i) any merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or
other business combination pursuant to which the business of PhotoLoft is
combined with that of another entity (the "Merger Candidate"),whether or not
-----------------
PhotoLoft is the surviving entity in such business combination.
1. SERVICES. Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, Baytree will assist PhotoLoft in negotiating and effecting: (i) a
Loan (as hereinafter described in subparagraph (a) if such is requested by
PhotoLoft; and (ii) a Transaction; and will act as the placement agent with
regard to obtaining the Financing (as hereinafter described in Paragraph 2) for
the Company. In this regard, Baytree proposes to undertake certain activities on
behalf of PhotoLoft, including, the following:
1
(a) structuring and negotiating a loan (the "Loan") in the
principal amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand ($250,000) Dollars should said
loan be requested in writing by PhotoLoft prior to the consummation of the
Transaction, provided, however, that said Loan shall be subject to Baytree's
satisfactory completion of its due diligence review of PhotoLoft (as herein
further described in paragraph 2 (a) ). In the event that PhotoLoft shall
request the Loan, it shall simultaneously execute and deliver the Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization with regard to the Transaction arid execute and deliver
the Note (as hereinafter defined). Said Loan will be provided to PhotoLoft
within five (5) days of such a request on terms and conditions substantially in
the form of the Note (the "Note) as set forth in Annex B attached hereto;

within the meaning of Rule 15(c)-2 of the Securities Act of 1934;

(g) arranging for financing on behalf of the Company as otherwise
discussed in this Agreement;
(h) rendering such other financial advisory and investment banking
services as may from time to time be agreed upon by Baytree and PhotoLoft or the
Company.
Any obligations pursuant to this Paragraph I shall survive the termination
or expiration of this Agreement.
2. FINANCING.
----------
(a) Baytree shall arrange (i) the Loan (if one has been so requested
pursuant to Paragraph(a) and(ii) a financing (the "Financing") on behalf of the
Company. The Financing shall be arranged either by the conversion of the Loan
into equity of PhotoLoft or other funding or a combination of conversion and
other funding, and will be completed through a limited offering. The Financing
will be for a maximum of One Million ($1,000,000.00 US) Dollars and
2
will be completed contemporaneously with consummation of the Transaction. The
limited offering comprising the Financing will be of Common Stock of the
Company. The Loan and the Financing will be subject to Baytree's successful and
satisfactory completion in Baytree's sole and absolute discretion of its due
diligence prior to the funding of the Loan or the Financing, such shall include,
but not be limited to, a review and analysis of PhotoLoft's financial status,
business plans and any pending or potential litigation. The placement of the
Common Stock will rely on Rule 504 of Regulation D ("Regulation D")promulgated
------------
under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),and shall thereby
-----
be exempt from the registration requirements of the Act, provided, however, that
should Rule 504 of Regulation D be changed so that the exemption from
registration for stock so issued is altered then no further Financing as
contemplated in this Agreement will occur unless and until the parties to this
Agreement enter into a separate and distinct Agreement to continue with a
financing wherein the terms of said financing shall be specifically described.
In connection with their purchase of the Common stock in the Financing, the
purchasers will receive Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) shares of the Common
Stock of the Company for every One Hundred Thousand ($ 100,000 US) Dollars so
invested and a prorata number of shares for any portion thereof so invested.
Baytree shall not be deemed an agent of the Company nor an agent of
PhotoLoft for any other purpose. Any proceeds shall be paid, less the Expense
Allowance and legal fees reimbursement (each as defined in Paragraph 4 below),
to the Company at a closing held with respect to the sale of the Common Stock in
the Financing (the "Closing" against delivery of certificates representing the
securities sold. The Company agrees that until the later of the termination of
the Offering Period, or twelve (12) months from the Closing, it will not,
directly or indirectly, seek to arrange or place any equity or convertible
security financing, without Baytree's prior written consent except if such
financing is a sale of securities of nonconvertible debt. Additionally, the
Company agrees that upon Closing, the Company shall grant Baytree a right of
first refusal for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the Closing with
respect to any sale of securities by the Company except if the sale is either
pursuant to an underwritten public offering or is of securities of
non-convertible debt and except for the issuance of securities upon the exercise
of currently outstanding options and warrants. Baytree shall have ten (10)
business days following receipt of written notice from the Company setting forth
the terms of any proposed financing to be conducted by it (a "Notice"), to
exercise the right of first refusal by presenting a letter of intent for a
proposed financing on the same or better economic terms as presented to the
Company. In the event Baytree fails to exercise this right to present a letter
of intent for a proposed financing, the Company shall be free to sell such
securities in the manner, amount and for the prices and terms set forth in the
Notice without liability to Baytree, subject to Baytree's right of consent for a
period of twelve (12) months as set forth above.
(b) In the event that the Loan shall have been converted to stock
pursuant to the terms of the Note, then and in that event Baytree shall be
deemed to have provided the Company that portion of the Financing contemplated
in subparagraph (a) hereof
3
and shall therefore be entitled to all Fees and Expenses provided for in
Paragraph 4 of this Agreement.
This Agreement does not constitute an understanding or a commitment,
express or implied, by Baytree to provide any of the Financing from its own
account. Any obligations pursuant to this Paragraph 2 shall survive the
termination or expiration of this Agreement.

ANNEX A: INDEMNIFICATION
PhotoLoft agrees to indemnify and to cause the Company to indemnify
Baytree, any broker-dealers who participate in the Financing, and their
respective employees, directors, officers, agents, affiliates, and each person,
if any, who controls them within the meaning of either Section 20 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933
(each such person, including Baytree and such broker-dealers, is referred to as
"Indemnified Party") from and against any losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, joint or several including all legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with the preparation for or
defense of any threatened or pending claim, action or proceeding, whether or not
resulting in any liability ("Damages"), to which such Indemnified Party, in
connection with its services or arising out of its engagement hereunder, may
become subject under any applicable Federal or state law or otherwise, including
but not limited to liability (i) caused by or arising out of an untrue statement
or an alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make a statement not
misleading in light of the circumstances under which it was made, (ii) caused by
or arising out of any act or failure to act or (iii) arising out of Baytree's
engagement or the rendering by any Indemnified Party of its services under this
Agreement; provided, however, that neither PhotoLoft nor the Company will be
liable to the Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that any Damages are
found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to
have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the
Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder.
These indemnification provisions shall be in addition to any liability
which PhotoLoft and/or the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Party.
If for any reason, other than a final non-appealable judgment finding an
Indemnified Party liable for Damages for its gross negligence, bad faith, or
willful misconduct the foregoing indemnity is unavailable to an Indemnified
Party or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then PhotoLoft
shall and shall cause the Company, to contribute to
10
the amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of such Damages
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
received by PhotoLoft or the Company, as the case may be and its shareholders on
the one hand, and Baytree on the other, but also the relative fault of PhotoLoft
or the Company, as the case may be, and the Indemnified Party as well as any
relevant equitable considerations, subject to the limitation that in no event
shall the total contribution of all Indemnified Parties to all such Damages
exceed the amount of fees actually received and retained by Baytree and the
broker-dealers selected by Baytree that participate in the placement of the
Common Stock.
Promptly after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of any claim or
of the commencement of any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought,
the Indemnified Party will notify PhotoLoft or the Company in writing of the
receipt or commencement thereof and PhotoLoft or the Company shall have the
right to assume the defense of such claim or action (including the employment of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of fees
and expenses of such counsel), provided that the Indemnified Party shall have
the right to control its defense if, in the opinion of its counsel, the
Indemnified Party's defense is unique or separate to it as the case may be, as
opposed to a defense pertaining to PhotoLoft or the Company In any event, the
Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory
to PhotoLoft or the Company, at PhotoLoft's or the Company's expense, to
represent it in any claim or action in respect of which indemnity may be sought
and agrees to cooperate with PhotoLoft or the Company and PhotoLoft's or the
Company's counsel in the defense of such claim or action, it being understood,
however, that PhotoLoft or the Company shall not, in connection with any one
such claim or action or separate, but substantially similar or related claims or
actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or
circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm of attorneys, for all the Indemnified Parties unless the defense
of one Indemnified Party is unique or separate from that of another Indemnified
Party subject to the same claim or action. In the event that PhotoLoft or the
Company does not promptly assume the defense of a claim or action, the
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory
to PhotoLoft or the Company, at PhotoLoft's or, the Company's expense, to defend
such claim or action. The omission by an Indemnified Party to promptly notify
PhotoLoft or the Company of the receipt or commencement of any claim or action
in respect of which indemnity may be sought will relieve PhotoLoft or the
Company from any liability PhotoLoft or the Company may have to such Indemnified
Party only to the extent that such a delay in notification materially prejudice
PhotoLoft's or the Company's defense of such claim or action. PhotoLoft or the
Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such claim or action
effected without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed. Any obligation pursuant to this Annex shall survive the termination
or expiration of this Agreement.

to the Due Date, or (2) as a part of being acquired by a public company prior to
the Due Date.
Maker shall offer the Payee the option to convert this note into shares of
common stock of any corporation which acquires at least fifty-one (51%) percent
of the Maker at any time prior to the Due Date. The terms of the issuance of
such shares shall be part of a structure wherein it is contemplated that such
corporation shall have 13,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding after the
acquisition of Maker (but before the conversion of a maximum of $250,000 of
Notes or further financing). In connection with said acquisition, it is
contemplated that the company shall issue 12,375,000 shares to the shareholders
of the Maker and shall undertake a financing by selling 2,000,000 shares at $.50
per share (the "Offering Shares"). The shares issuable upon conversion of this
Note shall be a part of the Offering Shares and shall be converted at $.50 per
share.

All principal and interest payments hereunder are payable in lawful money
of the United States of America to the Payee at the address first shown above,
or at such other address as may be directed by Payee, in immediately available
funds.
The Maker hereby waives presentment, demand, dishonor, protest, notice of
protest, diligence and any other notice or action otherwise required to be given
or taken under the law in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance,
default, enforcement or collection of this Note, and expressly agrees that this
Note, or any payment hereunder, may be extended, modified or subordinated (by
forbearance or otherwise) from time to time, without in any way affecting the
liability of the Maker.
In the event that (a) the Maker shall fail to pay when due, any payment of
principal or interest due hereunder and such failure to pay is not cured within
ten (10) days of the date such payment was due, or (b) if the maker shall (i)
make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) be adjudicated a
bankrupt or insolvent; (iii) file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy-, (iv) take
advantage of any bankruptcy or insolvency law or statute of the United States of
America or any state or jurisdiction thereof now or hereafter in effect; (v)
have a petition or proceeding filed against the Maker under any bankruptcy or
insolvency law or statute of the United States of America or any state or
jurisdiction thereof, which petition or proceeding is not dismissed within
forty-five (45) days from the date of commencement thereof; or (vi) have a
receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator or other person appointed by any court
to take charge of the Maker's affairs, assets or business and such appointment
is not vacated or discharged within forty-five (45) days thereafter; then, and
upon the happening of any such event, the Payee, at Payee's option, by written
notice to the Maker, may declare the entire indebtedness evidenced by this Note
immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall forthwith mature and
become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or
further notice.
In the event that Maker shall fail to pay when due any principal or
interest payment, and the Payee shall exercise or endeavor to exercise any of
its remedies hereunder, the Maker shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred in connection therewith including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees, and the Payee may take judgment for all such amounts in
addition to all other sums due hereunder.
No consent or waiver by the Payee with respect to any action or failure to
act by maker which, without such consent or waiver, would constitute a breach of
any provision of this Note shall be valid and binding unless in writing and
signed by the Payee.
All agreements between the Maker and the Payee are expressly limited to
provide that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
acceleration of maturity of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or otherwise,
shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the
13
Payee for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced hereby
exceed the maximum amount which the Payee is permitted to receive under
applicable law. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any
provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall
involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then, without the
necessity of any action by Payee or Maker, the obligation to be fulfilled shall
automatically be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any
circumstance the Payee should ever receive as interest an amount which would
exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest
shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance hereof, and not to
the payment of interest. As used herein, the term "applicable law" shall mean
the law in affect as of the date hereof, provided, however, that in the event
there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of
interest, then this Note shall be governed by such new law as of its effective
date. This provision shall control every other provision of all agreements
between the Maker and the Payee.
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of New York, except to the extent that such laws are superseded by
Federal enactments.
If any covenant or other provision of the Note is invalid, illegal, or
incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all
other covenants and provisions of the Note shall nevertheless remain in full
force and effect, and no covenant or provision shall be deemed dependent upon
any other covenant or provision.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Maker, by its duly authorized officer, has
executed this Note as of the date first above written.
