                                  TIMEKEEPING POLICY AND PROCEDURES

                  A.     INTRODUCTION

                         The accurate assignment of hours worked to proper project and overhead accounts is
                         essential  to  the  integrity  of  Molzen  Corbin's  accounting  and  billing  systems.
                         Through  the  accounting  process,  we  provide  clients  with  accurate  invoices  and
                         Company management with accurate and timely information, thereby contributing
                         positively to the financial health of the company.  As a service business, the accuracy
                         of  Molzen  Corbin's  accounting  and  financial  systems  is  dependent  upon  honest
                         recording and tracking of hours worked.

                         Supervisors are expected to assign team members specific tasks which are to be
                         completed within a requisite number of hours.  Team members are expected to know
                         the proper project or overhead account to which to assign their time and to record
                         time honestly and accurately.  Supervisors, in turn, are responsible for assuring that
                         team members are aware of proper project and overhead accounts, and for reviewing
                         and verifying timesheets for accuracy.

                  B.     RECORD ALL HOURS WORKED

                         All hours which advance the operation of our business are to be recorded on a daily
                         basis on an electronic timesheet. While time reported to a project should accurately
                         reflect time spent working on the project, the time spent on the project should fairly
                         reflect the time contemplated by Molzen Corbin and the client at the time the contract
                         was  made.  Time  spent  for  self-edification  is  not  always  time  that  was  fairly
                         contemplated under a contract with a client and, thus, time reported should account
                         for  the  client’s  expectations  of  expertise  and  efficiency  under  the  corresponding
                         agreement. Although changes may certainly be made with client approval and time-
                         estimates revised given a change of scope or the pragmatics of the project, generally
                         speaking, time reported on a project should reflect the expectations of the client and
                         project  manager  as  the  time  that  would  normally  be  required  to  accomplish  the
                         contemplated work.

                  C.     GENERAL ALLOCATION OF LABOR CHARGES

                         All recorded hours by Molzen Corbin employees will ultimately fall into one of two
                         general categories. The first general category is direct cost, which includes those
                         costs  that  have  a  direct  causal  or  beneficial  relationship  to  a  specific  contract.
