                             EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

                  Chicago Rivet & Machine Co., its parent, affiliates,
subsidiaries, predecessors, successors, assigns, and their current and former
owners, representatives, directors, officers, employees and agents
(hereinafter "Chicago Rivet"), and James Labold, his heirs, executors,
administrators, assigns, attorneys and all other persons claiming through
James Labold (hereinafter "Mr. Labold"), hereby enter into this Employment
Agreement (the "Agreement") on the later of the two dates stated on the last
page. The parties anticipate that the primary obligations under this agreement
will commence on July 5, 2005 ("Effective Date"). In consideration of the
mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

         1. Employment. Chicago Rivet agrees to employ Mr. Labold on the terms
and conditions set forth below for the term of employment described below and
Mr. Labold accepts such employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
interpreted to mean that the only terms of employment are those contained in
this Agreement.

         2. Position. Mr. Labold shall perform all reasonable duties and
services incident to his position as Sales Manager of Chicago Rivet, and such
other reasonable duties and services as may from time to time be assigned to
him by Chicago Rivet, consistent with his position. Primary responsibilities
will include(but are not be limited to): increasing sales volume, improve
existing relationships with customers and sales representatives, establish new
customers, evaluate representative performance, train representatives,
generally improve the Company's position in the marketplace and other duties
as may be assigned by management from time-to-time.

         3. Term. Mr. Labold's term of employment shall begin as of the
Effective Date and continue for a period of three years. ("Ending Date"),
which term may be extended for additional one-year periods by written
agreement sixty days prior to the Ending Date, unless earlier terminated as
provided in Section 6 below ("Term"). In the event that Mr. Labold chooses to
terminate this Agreement prior to the Ending Date or thereafter, he may do so,
without penalty, by providing thirty days advance notice, in writing. In the
event of Mr. Labold's termination of the Agreement, Chicago Rivet's
obligations under this Agreement cease upon the expiration of the thirty-day
notice period, or earlier, if Mr. Labold ceases the full performance of his
duties during such thirty-day period.

         4. Loyalty. Mr. Labold agrees that during the period of his
employment he will devote his full business time and attention to the business
and affairs of Chicago Rivet and will not, without the prior written
permission of Chicago Rivet's President, engage in any other business activity
which requires the personal time or attention of Mr. Labold. The foregoing
shall not prevent the purchase, ownership or sale by Mr. Labold of investments
or securities of any business which is not competitive and does not have any
business relations with Chicago Rivet or up to two percent of the outstanding
publicly traded stock of any company, provided the time or attention devoted
to such activities does not interfere with the performance of his duties
hereunder. Mr. Labold represents and warrants that he is not bound by any
agreements or other business commitments that would in any manner limit his
work, effort or activity on behalf of, and while employed by, the Company.

         In consideration of Chicago Rivet's promise to employ Mr. Labold for
a minimum of three years or to continue his pay for three years, other than as
may be terminated by the terms of this Agreement, Mr. Labold agrees to cease
all activity, involvement, ownership and financial interests with any current
business he has, including but not limited to that of Labold Corporation. Mr.
Labold agrees to provide written verification no later than one week prior to
the Effective Date that he has no current or future commitments for activity,
involvement, ownership, or financial interests associated with Labold
Corporation or any other organization, except as particularly allowed by this
section. Mr. Labold agrees to cooperate fully with Chicago Rivet and its
attorney(s) if requested to do so, in order to facilitate compliance by
Chicago Rivet with securities or other laws as may relate to Mr. Labold's
current or former business activities.

         In the event Mr. Labold Does not produce such written verifiaction at
least one week before the Effective Date, Chicago Rivet agrees to
automatically extend the Effective Date and all related dates in this
Agreement as long as the new Effective Date is no later than August 1, 2005.
Mr. Labold agrees that if he is unable to provide written verification that he
has ceased all activity in other businesses one week in advance of the July 5,
2005 Effective Date, he will provide written notice of the additional time he
believes he will require to provide such written verification. If Mr. Labold's
notice indicates that he will be able to provide written verification of
cessation of any other businesses no later than July 22, 2005, Chicago Rivet
agrees to extend the Effective Date and all related dates I this Agreement by
the additional time needed as long as the new Effective Date is not later than
August 1, 2005. If such situation occurs, the parties will agree to a new
Effective Date in July or of August 1, 2005. if Mr. Labold does not provide
suche written verification and/or notice as contemplated in this paragraph,
Chicago Rivet will have no additional obligations under this Agreement and the
agreement will be terminated.

         5. Compensation. For the full, prompt and faithful performance of all
of the duties and services to be performed by Mr. Labold hereunder, Chicago
Rivet agrees to pay, and Mr. Labold agrees to accept, the amounts set forth

agreements between Chicago Rivet and Mr. Labold. No agreements,
representations or understandings (whether oral or written and whether

and enforced in accordance with and subject to, the laws of the State of

         13. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is declared
void, unenforceable or against public policy, such provision shall be deemed
severable and severed from this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect. If a court determines any clause,
sentence or provision to be unenforceable or invalid because of its scope, the
court may reduce or limit such clause, sentence or provision so as to be
enforceable to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law.

         14. Withholding. All payments made pursuant to this Agreement will be
subject to withholding of applicable taxes and other deductions required or
permitted by law.

         15. No Conflicting Contracts. Mr. Labold represents and warrants that
