                        RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT

     This RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into as
of August 19, 2002 by and among The Bluebook International Holding Company, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Mark A. Josipovich, Daniel E. Josipovich,
Daniel T. Josipovich and Dorothy E. Josipovich (each a "Founder" and
collectively, the "Founders") and Cotelligent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Purchaser").

                                    RECITALS

     The Company and the Purchaser are parties to the Series C Preferred Stock
Purchase Agreement of even date herewith, pursuant to which the Purchaser is
purchasing shares of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock (the "Series C
Preferred");

     The Founders are the beneficial owners of the number of shares of Common
Stock set forth opposite each Founder's name on Schedule A hereto; and

     The Founders wish to provide further inducement to the Purchaser to
purchase the Series C Preferred by providing the Purchaser with a right of first
refusal to purchase the Founders' Common Stock as provided in this Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises
set forth in this Agreement;

     The parties agree as follows:

     1. Restrictions on Transfer of Shares by the Founders. Except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, the Founders will not sell, assign, transfer,
pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise encumber or dispose of in any way, all or any
part of or any interest in the Equity Securities (as defined below) now or
hereafter owned or held by the Founders. Any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge,
hypothecation or other encumbrance or disposition of Equity Securities not made
in conformance with this Agreement shall be null and void, shall not be recorded
on the books of the Company and shall not be recognized by the Company.

     2. Definitions.

     Equity Securities. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Equity
Securities" shall mean any securities having voting rights in the election of
the Board of directors of the Company not contingent upon default, or any
securities evidencing an ownership interest in the Company, or any securities
convertible into or exercisable for any shares of the foregoing, or any
agreement or commitment to issue any of the foregoing.

     3. Agreements Among the Company, the Purchaser and the Founders.

          3.1 Rights of First Refusal.

               (a) Transfer Notice. If at any time any Founder proposes to
          transfer Equity Securities to one or more third parties pursuant to an
          understanding with such third parties (a "Transfer"), then such
          Founder shall give Purchaser written notice of the Founder's intention
          to make the Transfer (the "Transfer Notice"), which Transfer Notice
          shall include (i) a description of the Equity Securities to be
          transferred ("Offered Shares"), and (ii) the consideration and the
          material terms and conditions upon which the proposed Transfer is to
          be made. The Transfer Notice shall certify that the Founder has
          received a firm offer from the prospective transferee(s) and in good
          faith believes a binding agreement for the Transfer is obtainable on
          the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice. The Transfer Notice shall
          also include a copy of any written proposal, term sheet or letter of
          intent or other agreement relating to the proposed Transfer, subject
          to any obligation to keep the identity of the prospective transferee
          confidential.

               (b) Purchaser's Option. Purchaser shall have an option for a
          period of ten (10) days from receipt of the Transfer Notice to elect
          to purchase the Offered Shares at the same price and subject to the
          same material terms and conditions as described in the Transfer
          Notice. Purchaser may exercise such purchase option and, thereby,
          purchase all (or a portion of) the Offered Shares by notifying such
          Founder in writing before expiration of the such ten (10) day period.
          If Purchaser gives the Founder notice that it desires to purchase such
          shares, then payment for the Offered Shares shall be by check or wire
          transfer, against delivery of the Offered Shares to be purchased at
          the Company's principal place of business or such other place agreed
          upon between the parties and at the time of the scheduled closing
          therefor, which shall be no later than thirty (30) days after
          Purchaser's receipt of the Transfer Notice, unless the value of the
          purchase price has not yet been established pursuant to Section 3.1(c)
          below.

               (c) Valuation of Property. Should the purchase price specified in
          the Transfer Notice be payable in property other than cash or
          evidences of indebtedness, Purchaser shall have the right to pay the
          purchase price in the form of cash equal in amount to the value of
          such property. If such property does not have a readily ascertainable
          value, and if the Offered Shares are common stock or other Equity
          Securities sold on the public market, then the value of such property
          shall be deemed to be the value of such Offered Shares, which shall be
          equal to the average daily trading price over the ten (10) day period
          immediately preceding the date of the Transfer Notice. For any other
          Offered Shares, Founder and Purchaser shall use their best efforts to
          agree upon a value of such property within ten (10) days of
          Purchaser's receipt of the Transfer Notice. If the Founder and
          Purchaser cannot agree on such cash value within ten (10) days after
          Purchaser's receipt of the Transfer Notice, Founder and Purchaser
          shall mutually select an appraiser who is active in the appraisal of
          the type of property at issue within twenty (20) days after
          Purchaser's receipt of the Transfer Notice. Founder shall submit
          Founder's determination of value ("Founder's Value") and Purchaser
          shall submit Purchaser's determination of value ("Purchaser's Value")
          to such appraiser, at such time or times and in such manner as Founder
          and Purchaser shall agree (or as soon as possible as determined and
          directed by the appraiser if Founder and Purchaser do not promptly
          agree). The appraiser shall promptly (but in no event beyond ten (10)
          days) select either Founder's Value or Purchaser's Value as the fair
          value of the subject property, and such determination shall be binding
          on Founder and Purchaser. If Founder's determination is selected as


                                       2

<PAGE>

          the fair value of the property, then Purchaser shall bear all of the
          appraiser's costs and fees. If Purchaser's determination is selected
          as the fair value of the property, the Founder shall bear all of the
          broker's costs and fees. If the time for the closing of Purchaser's
          purchase has expired but for the determination of the value of the
          purchase price offered by the prospective transferee(s), then such
          closing shall be held on or prior to the fifth (5th) business day
          after such valuation shall have been made pursuant to this subsection.

          3.2 Non-Exercise of Rights. To the extent Purchaser has not exercised
     its rights to purchase all of the Offered Shares within the time periods
     specified in Section 3.1, the Founder shall have until the later of (1) the
     closing date set forth in the Transfer Notice, or (2) a period of sixty
     (60) days from the expiration of such rights in which to sell the Offered
     Shares not so purchased (the "Open Period") upon terms and conditions
     (including the purchase price) no more favorable than those specified in
     the Transfer Notice to the third-party transferee(s). The third-party
     transferee(s) shall acquire any such Offered Shares free and clear of
     subsequent rights of first refusal under this Agreement. In the event the
     Founder does not consummate the sale or disposition of all of the Offered
     Shares not purchased by Purchaser within the Open Period, Purchaser's first
     refusal rights shall continue to be applicable to any subsequent
     disposition of any of the Offered Shares by the Founder until such right
     lapses in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Furthermore, the
     exercise or non-exercise of the rights of Purchaser under this Section 3 to
     purchase Equity Securities from the Founder shall not adversely affect its
     right to make subsequent purchases from the Founder of Equity Securities.

          3.3 Limitations to Rights of First Refusal. Notwithstanding the
     provisions of Section 3.1 of this Agreement, any Founder may sell or
     otherwise assign, with or without consideration, Equity Securities to
     either (i) the Founder's spouse, parent, sibling, child, or any of their
     lineal descendants (collectively, the "Immediate Family") or to a
     custodian, trustee (including a trustee of a voting trust), executor, or
     other fiduciary for the account of the Founder's Immediate Family, or to a
     trust for the Founder's own self or any partnership, limited liability
     company or corporation qualified under Subchapter "S" of the Internal
     Revenue Code beneficially owned solely by the Founder and/or the Immediate
     Family; provided that each such transferee or assignee, prior to the
     completion of the sale, transfer, or assignment shall have executed
     documents assuming the obligations of the applicable Founder or Founders
     under this Agreement with respect to the transferred securities; or (ii) to
     Microsoft, Cisco, KPMG or Hewlett Packard and their successors-in-interest
     by merger, division or sale of substantially all the assets or stock of any
     of the foregoing companies, which transfer shall be made free and clear of
     subsequent rights of first refusal under this Agreement.

          3.4 Failure to Close. In the event that Purchaser elects to purchase
     the Offered Shares within the time period specified in Section 3.1 above
     but fails to close such purchase within the time period specified therein,
     then Founder may seek any contract remedy it may have in such event,
     including specific performance.

     4. Assignments and Transfers; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Purchaser may
not assign any rights under this Agreement, except to a successor-in-interest by
merger or sale of substantially all of the assets or stock of Purchaser. Subject
to the foregoing, this Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties
hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, their respective
successors, assigns (except as provided in Section 3.3 above) and legal
representatives, but shall not otherwise be for the benefit of any third party.

hereafter acquired by a Founder shall bear the following legend upon its face

     6. Effect of Change in Company's Capital Structure. The provisions of this

reclassification or like change in the capital structure of the Company.

Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be delivered personally or by

after deposit in the United States mail. Notices sent by courier or overnight
delivery shall be deemed received two (2) days after they have been so sent.

     8. Further Instruments and Actions. The parties agree to execute such
further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be

cooperate affirmatively with the Company and Purchaser, to the extent reasonably
requested by the Company or Purchaser, to enforce rights and obligations
pursuant hereto.

of the Company, Purchaser and each of the Founders, (ii) upon the transfer of
all the Equity Securities in accordance with this Agreement, or (iii) upon the

     10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of
the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, supersedes all

the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or
in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with
the written consent of the Company, the written consent of each Founder and the
