The registrant hereby amends Items 2.01 and 9.01 of its Current Report on Form
8-K filed on April 13, 2005, as follows:

Item 2.01 - Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

         On April 6, 2005, Defense Technology Systems, Inc. ("DFTS"), completed
the acquisition of a majority interest in Digital Computer Integration
Corporation ("DCI"), pursuant to a purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with
NewMarket Technology, Inc. The Registrant announced the signing of the Agreement
on February 28, 2005 and filed a copy of the Agreement in the Current Report on
Form 8-K filed on April 13, 2005. Subsequently it has come to the attention of
the Registrant that information included on Schedule 3.5 to the Agreement,
related to outstanding stock options, was incorrect, and that certain related
information, applicable to Schedule 3.6, was omitted. The corrected information,
related principally to unvested stock options granted to the Chief Executive and
Chief Financial Officers, as well as the corrected number of vested options
outstanding, is included in the revised schedules accompanying this filing.

     The amendment to the Agreement acknowledging the above changes and
reaffirming the Agreement with the amended disclosure is attached herewith as
Exhibit 10.2.

Item 9.01 -   Financial Statements and Exhibits.
