This Product Resale Agreement ("Agreement") is made by and between World Wide
Technology, Inc., a Missouri corporation, with offices at 127 Weldon Parkway, St
Louis Missouri 63043 ("Vendor") and Lucent Technologies Inc., a Delaware
corporation, with its principal place of business at 600 Mountain Avenue, Murray
Hill, New Jersey 07974 ("Lucent").

WHEREAS, Lucent desires to sell certain 5ESS(R) electronic switch system
apparatus [*Confidential treatment will be requested.] ("Product(s)") and is
desirous of having another company stock and furnish equipment to Ameritech
Services, Inc. ("ASI"); and

WHEREAS, Vendor represents that it is a reseller of telecommunications equipment
and has in place the facilities and organization to stock and furnish such
equipment to ASI; and

WHEREAS, Lucent believes that ASI desires to make purchases of Product(s) from a
certified Minority Business Enterprise ("MBE"); and

WHEREAS, Vendor represents and warrants that it is a certified MBE and desires
to purchase Product(s) for the sole purpose of reselling such Product(s) to ASI.

NOW THEREFORE the parties agree as follows:

1.       SCOPE OF AGREEMENT

(a)      The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to transactions
         in which Lucent furnishes Product(s) to Vendor so that Vendor may
         furnish such Product solely to and for ASI.

(b)      In consideration of the covenants by Vendor contained herein, Vendor is
         granted the right to obtain the Products [*Confidential treatment will
         be requested.], plus such additional items as Lucent may from time to
         time in writing agree to furnish to Vendor, solely for the purpose of
         selling, or otherwise furnishing Product to ASI. Vendor shall only sell
         or otherwise furnish Product to ASI against ASI orders placed with
         Vendor. Products purchased by Vendor from Lucent pursuant to this
         Agreement shall not be resold, assigned or delivered to any other
         person or entity other than ASI and are sold solely on the
         representation that such purchases are related to the sale and delivery
         of Product to ASI. Any Products Vendor desires to purchase for work
         competitively awarded by ASI shall be purchased through other
         distribution channels or as may be mutually agreed by the parties.

(c)      Vendor is also a participant in Lucent's Value Added Reseller ("VAR")
         program and acknowledges and agrees that in performing for and on
         behalf of ASI, Vendor is not participating in the VAR program and that
         any purchases for or on behalf of ASI hereunder shall not be counted
         towards any awards, discounts, credits or minimum purchase commitments
         as may exist under the VAR program. Vendor agrees that it shall not
         make any claim for any such benefits for the VAR program for any sales,
         deliveries or efforts hereunder.

uniformly and consistently applied in a format that will permit audit. Unless
otherwise provided in this Agreement, Vendor shall retain such records for a

         these forecasts are as accurate as possible. However, these purchasing
         forecasts are only projections or forecasts and are not to be construed
         as commitments to purchase any forecasted amount.

(b)      An order submitted by Vendor shall contain the information necessary
         for the furnishing of the Products including, without limitation,
         Lucent's contract number, the date of the order, the shipping
         destination and reference to any applicable Lucent specifications and
         information. Schedules and dates, including shipment dates, for the
         furnishing of the Products, must be agreed to by Lucent prior to its
         acceptance of the order. All orders submitted by Vendor shall be deemed
         to incorporate and be subject to the terms and conditions of this
         Agreement as well as any supplemental terms and conditions agreed to by
         authorized representatives of the parties in writing. Lucent reserves

modify the drawings and specifications relating thereto, or substitute Products

substitutions under normal and proper use do not impact upon form, fit, or
function or are recommended to enhance safety. Lucent may use either new,
reconditioned, refurbished or remanufactured Products or parts in the furnishing
of Products, spares, replacement parts or repairs under this Agreement.

Vendor acknowledges that Lucent will be changing during the term of this
Agreement the identity of some of the Products to be furnished hereunder to

thereof. At such time as Lucent elects to institute a new trade name, logo,
trademark, trade device, service mark, symbol, code and/or specification in

Vendor in writing ("Name Change Notice"). Said Name Change Notice shall include,
without limitation:

(a)      the new trade name, logo, trademark, trade device, service mark,
         symbol, code, and/or specification selected by Lucent (in its sole and

         the use by Vendor of such new trade name, logo, trademark, trade
         device, service mark, symbol, code and/or specification in connection
         with this Agreement.

Name Change Notice, any and all rights of Vendor under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, Clause 20, TRADEMARKS) to use any mark (as
defined in Clause 20) which contains any reference to "AT&T" or any
abbreviation, contraction or simulation thereof shall be terminated and null and
void and thereupon all rights of Vendor under this Agreement to use any mark
shall apply to and be in accordance with the Name Change Notice.

         Lucent of any disputed invoices within six (6) months from the date of
         invoice.

(e)      Vendor shall be liable for and shall reimburse Lucent for all taxes and
         related charges (including any interest and penalties), however

         arising from the provision of or the transfer, sale, license, or use of
         Products, or other items provided by Lucent. Taxes reimbursable under
         this clause shall be separately listed on the invoice.

(f)      Lucent shall not collect the otherwise applicable tax if Vendor's
         purchase is exempt from Lucent's collection of such tax and a valid tax
         exemption certificate is furnished by Vendor to Lucent.

(g)      In no event shall Vendor's payment, as set forth in this Clause 13,
         INVOICING AND TERMS OF PAYMENT, be contingent on Vendor's resale of
         Product(s) or product(s) to ASI.

14.      DELIVERY, TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS

Shipments of Product shall be made FOB destination and title and risk of loss to
such Products shall pass to Vendor upon delivery to the Vendor. Shipments of
Licensed Materials shall be made FOB destination and risk of loss to such
Licensed Materials shall pass to Vendor upon delivery to the Vendor. Title to
Licensed Materials shall remain in Lucent. Vendor shall notify Lucent promptly
of any claim with respect to loss which occurred while Lucent bears the risk of
loss, of which Vendor has knowledge, and shall cooperate in every reasonable way
to facilitate the settlement of any claim. For the purposes of this Section,
"delivery" shall mean the point at which Lucent or Lucent's supplier or agent
turns over possession of the Products and/or Licensed Material ordered pursuant
to this Agreement to Vendor, Vendor's warehouse, Vendor's carrier (as may be
designated in the order), or Vendor's agent and not necessarily the final
destination shown on the order, prepaid and added to the invoice as may be
specified on individual orders. When Vendor requests Lucent to arrange the
transportation of the Product, Lucent shall ship all Products freight collect.
If Lucent is instructed to ship Product prepaid and add, Lucent shall select a
carrier based on the best rate, as negotiated by Lucent, and Vendor shall pay
Lucent's transportation costs in accordance with the standard factors then in
effect.

         applies, the expiration date and the insurer's agreement to provide
         written notice to Lucent at least thirty (30) days prior to the

(d)      Vendor's obligations to maintain the insurance and to provide policy
         endorsements as required herein shall survive the termination of this
         Agreement, and Vendor agrees to maintain such insurance and
         endorsements for a period of one (1) year beyond the written notice of
         termination by either party.

(e)      Vendor agrees to indemnify and save harmless Lucent from and against

         performance under this Agreement, including claims from Lucent's
         customers for warranty service, representations made by Vendor and
         incidental and consequential damage. At Lucent's request, Vendor agrees
         to defend Lucent against such claims, demands, or suits at Vendor's
         expense. Lucent agrees to notify Vendor within a reasonable time of any
         written claims or demands against Lucent for which Vendor is

16.      USE OF INFORMATION

All Information which bears a proprietary legend or notice restricting its use,
copying, or dissemination shall remain the property of the furnishing party
("Information"). The furnishing party grants the receiving party the right to
use such Information only as follows: such Information (1) shall not be
reproduced or copied, in whole or in part, except for use as authorized in this
Agreement; and (2) shall, together with any full or partial copies thereof; be
returned or destroyed when no longer needed. When Lucent is the receiving party,
Lucent shall use such information only for the purpose of performing under this
Agreement. When Vendor is the receiving party, Vendor shall use such Information
only (1) to evaluate or order Lucent's Products or (2) to install, operate and
maintain the particular Products for which it was originally furnished. Unless
the furnishing party consents in writing, such Information shall be held in
confidence by the receiving party, except for that part, if any, which is known
to the receiving party free of any confidential obligation, or which becomes
generally known to the public through acts not attributable to the receiving
party. The receiving party may disclose such Information to other persons, upon
the furnishing party's prior written authorization, but solely to perform acts
which this clause expressly authorizes the receiving party to perform itself and
further provided such other person agrees in writing (a copy of which writing
will be provided to the furnishing party at its request) to the same conditions
respecting use of Information contained in this clause and to any other
reasonable conditions requested by the furnishing party.

17.      INFRINGEMENT

In the event of any claim, action, proceeding or suit by a third party against
Vendor alleging an infringement of any United States patent, United States
copyright, or United States trademark, or a violation in the United States of
any trade secret or proprietary rights by reason of the use, in accordance with
Lucent's or other applicable specifications, of any Product, Licensed Material
(software or related documentation), if any, or other item furnished by Lucent
to Vendor under this Agreement, Lucent, at its expense, will defend Vendor,
subject to the conditions and exceptions stated below. Lucent will reimburse
Vendor for any cost, expense or attorney's fee, incurred at Lucent's written
request or authorization, and will indemnify Vendor against any liability
assessed against Vendor by final judgment on account of such infringement or
violation arising out of such use.

If Vendor's or ASI's use shall be enjoined or in Lucent's opinion is likely to
be enjoined, Lucent will, at its expense and at its option, either (a) replace
the affected Product, Licensed Material or other item furnished pursuant to this
Agreement with a suitable substitute free of any infringement or violation, (b)
modify it so that it will be free of the infringement or violation, or (c)
procure for Vendor or ASI a license or other right to use it. If none of the
foregoing options is practical, Lucent will accept the return of the enjoined
Product, Licensed Material or other item and refund to Vendor any amounts paid
to Lucent less a reasonable charge for any actual period of use by Vendor.

Vendor shall give Lucent prompt written notice of all such claims, actions,
proceedings or suits alleging infringement or violation and Lucent shall have
full and complete authority to assume the sole defense thereof; including
appeals, and to settle same. Vendor shall, upon Lucent's request and at Lucent's
expense, furnish all information and assistance available to Vendor and
cooperate in every reasonable way to facilitate the defense and/or settlement of
any such claim, action, proceeding or suit.

No undertaking of Lucent under this section shall extend to any such alleged
infringement or violation to the extent that it: (a) arises from adherence to
design modifications, specifications, drawings, or written instructions which
Lucent is directed by Vendor or ASI to follow, but only if such alleged
infringement or violation does not reside in corresponding commercial Product or
Licensed Material of Lucent's design or selection; or (b) arises from adherence
to instructions to apply Vendor's or ASI's trademark, trade name, or other
company identification; or (c) resides in a Product or Licensed Material which
is not of Lucent's origin and which is furnished by Vendor or ASI to Lucent for
use under this Agreement; or (d) relates to use of Products, Licensed Materials
or other items provided by Lucent in combinations with other Products, Licensed
Materials or other items, furnished either by Lucent or others, which
combination was not installed, recommended or otherwise approved by Lucent. In
the foregoing cases (a) through (d), Vendor will defend and save Lucent
harmless, subject to the same terms and conditions and exceptions stated above
with respect to Lucent's rights and obligations under this clause.

20.      TRADEMARKS

Vendor will not, without Lucent's express written permission, use in marketing,
advertising, publicity, or otherwise any trade name, trademark, trade device,
service mark, symbol, code, or specification or any abbreviation, contraction,
or simulation thereof ("mark") of the Lucent companies nor shall Vendor claim
any ownership therein. Vendor shall not remove, deface, alter or otherwise
obscure any mark of the Lucent companies which is on a Product sold under this
Agreement nor shall Vendor place any mark of any other company on any such
Product. Any such usage shall inure to the benefit of the Lucent company mark
owner. As used in this Clause the term "Lucent" means Lucent Technologies Inc.,
Bell Labs and its Affiliated companies.

21.      LEGISLATION AND GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS

Vendor shall at all times comply with all applicable requirements of federal,
state and local laws, ordinances, administrative rules and regulations. Vendor
shall contractually require its subcontractors, distributors and agents to
comply with all such legal requirements as well, and Vendor shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Lucent for any damages, losses, costs, or penalties
incurred by Lucent by virtue of such noncompliance by Vendor or its
subcontractors, distributors, or agents. If requested by Lucent, Vendor shall
advise Lucent in writing of the identity and addresses of its subcontractors,
distributors and agents in connection with the Products.

22.      TERMINATION OF ORDERS

Vendor may, upon notice to Lucent, and upon terms that will compensate Lucent
from all loss, terminate any order or portion thereof, issue a "hold" on an
order, or suspend performance under the Agreement in whole or in part, except
with respect to Products which have already been shipped or services which have
already been performed. Vendor's liability to Lucent for any

such termination, "hold" or suspension shall include, but not be limited to, the
price of all services performed and of Products delivered or held for
disposition, loss of profits, incurred costs (including charges made by Lucent
suppliers), work in progress, and an allocation of general and administrative
expenses.

23.      TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

(a)      Either party may terminate this Agreement without cause or reason
         whatsoever upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to the other
         setting forth the effective date of such termination. The termination
         of this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of the parties with
         respect to any orders previously entered into hereunder, and the terms
         and conditions of this Agreement shall continue to apply to such orders
         as if this Agreement had not been terminated.

         Upon termination of this Agreement without cause pursuant to this
         paragraph neither party shall be liable to the other, either for
         compensation or for damages of any kind or character whatsoever,
         whether on account of the loss by Lucent or Vendor of present or
         prospective profits on sales or anticipated sales, or expenditures,
         investments, or commitments made in connection therewith or in
         connection with the establishment, development or maintenance or
         Vendor's business, or on account of any other cause or thing
         whatsoever, provided that termination shall not prejudice or otherwise
         affect the rights or liability of the parties with respect to Products
         theretofore sold hereunder, or any indebtedness then owing by either
         party to the other.

(b)      Either party may terminate this Agreement, immediately, upon
         twenty-four (24) hours written notice:

         (i)      if the other party files a petition in bankruptcy, or is
                  adjudicated bankrupt, or makes a general assignment for the
                  benefit of creditors, or becomes insolvent, or is otherwise
                  unable to meet its business obligations for a period of six
                  (6) months. Such party shall promptly and fully inform the
                  other party of the imminence or occurrence of any event
                  described in this subparagraph; or

         (ii)     in the event of change in the controlling ownership of Vendor
                  or in the event of a sale or assumption of all or
                  substantially all of the assets of Vendor on or after the
                  effective date of this Agreement, if such change, sale or
                  assumption is unacceptable by Lucent.

         (iii)    in the event the agreement between Vendor and ASI terminates
                  in which event Vendor shall notify Lucent of said termination
                  immediately and in writing.

(c)      Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other party breaches
         any of the material terms and conditions of this Agreement and the
         other party fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after
         written notice thereof from the non-breaching party.

(d)      Notwithstanding any other terms and provisions of this Agreement or
         other arrangements agreed to by the parties, termination of this
         Agreement shall automatically accelerate the due date of all invoices
         for Products such that they shall become immediately due and payable on
         the effective date of termination.

(e)      Upon notice of termination, Lucent shall be entitled to reject all or a
         part of any orders received from Vendor after notice but prior to the
         effective date of termination.

Notwithstanding any credit terms made available to Vendor prior to that time,
any Product shipped after notice of termination and prior to effective date of
termination shall be paid for by certified or cashier's check prior to shipment.
Upon termination or non-renewal of this Agreement, Vendor shall immediately:

         (1)      Discontinue any and all use of marks (as defined in the Clause
                  TRADEMARKS) except to identify the Products, including but not
                  limited to such use in advertising or business material of
                  Vendor;

         (2)      Remove and return to Lucent or destroy at Lucent's request,
                  any and all promotional material supplied without charge by
                  Lucent;

         (3)      Return, upon request, all Lucent Information as described in
                  the paragraph Use of Information except that which Lucent
                  agrees is necessary to operate and maintain previously
                  furnished Products;

         (4)      Cease holding itself out, in any other manner, as a Vendor
                  capable of purchasing or obtaining Products for or on behalf
                  of ASI directly from Lucent; and

         (5)      Notify ASI and others who may, at the initiation of Vendor,
                  identify, list or publish Vendor's name as a Vendor capable of
                  purchasing or obtaining Products for or on behalf of ASI
                  (including but not limited to publishers of other business
                  directories) to discontinue such listings.

24.      SURVIVAL OF OBLIGATIONS

The respective obligations of Vendor and Lucent under this Agreement which by
their nature would continue beyond the termination, cancellation or expiration
hereof shall survive such termination, cancellation or expiration.

25.      FORCE MAJEURE

Except with respect to Vendor's obligation to make timely payments, neither
party shall be liable to the other party for any loss, damage, delay or failure
of performance resulting directly or indirectly from any cause which is beyond
its reasonable control, including, but not limited to the elements;
extraordinary traffic conditions, riots; civil disturbances, wars; states of
belligerency or acts of the public enemy; labor disputes; strikes, work
stoppages, inability to secure raw

materials, product or transportation facilities; or the laws, regulations, acts
or failure to act of any governmental authority, including but not limited to
denial of a U.S. Export License, hereinafter referred to as "Force Majeure". A
Party shall promptly notify the other party of the occurrence of a Force Majeure
event and the notifying party shall be excused from any further performance of
these obligations affected by the Force Majeure event for as long as such Force
Majeure event continues and such party uses and continues to use its best
efforts to recommence performance. Failure of either party to perform under this
Agreement because of the endurance of a Force Majeure event for more than three
(3) months will represent grounds by either party for its termination of the
portion of this Agreement affected by the Force Majeure event.

26.      ASSIGNMENT

Except as provided in this clause, neither party shall assign this Agreement or
any right or interest under this Agreement, nor delegate any work or obligation
to be performed under this Agreement, (an "Assignment") without the other
party's prior written consent. Nothing shall preclude a party from employing a
subcontractor in carrying out its obligations under this Agreement, but a
party's use of such subcontractor shall not release the party from its
obligations under this Agreement. An attempted assignment or delegation in
contravention of this clause shall be void and ineffective. Lucent has the sole
right to assign this Agreement and to assign its rights and delegate its duties
under this Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time and without Vendor's
consent, to any corporate parent or to any present Affiliate or to any
combination of the foregoing, provided that Lucent give prompt written notice of
such assignment to Vendor.

27.      SEVERABILITY

If any provision in this Agreement, or any portion thereof is subsequently held
to be invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then
that provision or portion notwithstanding, this Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect and such provision or portion shall be deemed omitted and this
Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision or
portion had not been contained herein.

28.      RELEASE VOID

Neither party shall require release or waivers of any personal rights from
representatives of the other in connection with visits to its premises and both
parties agree that no such releases or waivers shall be pleaded by them in any
action or proceeding.

29.      NON-WAIVER

No waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or the failure of
either party to strictly enforce any term or condition of this Agreement on one
or more occasions shall be construed as a waiver of the same or of any other
term or condition of this Agreement on any other occasion.

30.      CHOICE OF LAW

The construction, interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be
governed by the laws of the State of New York, except for its conflicts of law
provisions.

31.      TECHNOLOGY OWNERSHIP

Lucent retains sole ownership of the design, assembly, testing rights and
information, regardless of Vendor's contribution to the value of those rights,
design and information. Lucent's sale of the Products to Vendor; Lucent's grant
to Vendor of the right to assemble, package, and sell the Product, conveys no
ownership rights whatsoever in any Product or the Product.

32.      NOTICES

All notices, requests, approvals and other communications ("Notices") required
or allowed under this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed as set forth
below or to such other person and/or address as either party may designate by
written Notice pursuant hereto. Such Notices shall be deemed to have been given
when received. Notices may be delivered by hand or sent by prepaid certified or
registered airmail, confirmed facsimile or electronic mail, provided a copy is
also forwarded by prepaid registered airmail.

33.      PURCHASE MONEY SECURITY INTEREST

(a)      Subject to Lucent's prior written notice hereunder to Vendor of
         Lucent's intent to file purchase money security documents as set forth
         in the following and Vendor's failure to resolve any default(s) leading
         to such action within ten (10) days of Lucent's notice, Lucent reserves
         and Vendor agrees that Lucent shall have a purchase money security
         interest in all Products heretofore sold or hereafter sold to Vendor by
         Lucent under this Agreement, until any and all payments and charges due
         Lucent under this Agreement including, without limitation, shipping and
         installation charges, are paid in full. Lucent shall have the right, at
         any time during the Term and without notice to Vendor, to file in any
         state or local jurisdiction such financing statements (e.g., UCC1
         financing statements) as Lucent deems necessary to perfect its purchase
         money security interest

         hereunder. Vendor agrees to execute and deliver to Lucent all such
         financing statements and other documents as Lucent deems necessary to
         perfect its purchase money security interest hereunder. Notwithstanding
         the foregoing obligation, Vendor hereby irrevocably appoints Lucent as
         its attorney-in-fact for purposes of executing and filing such
         financing statements and such other documents prepared by Lucent or its
         designated agent for purposes of perfecting Lucent's security interest
         hereunder. Vendor also agrees that this Agreement may be filed by
         Lucent in any state or local jurisdiction as a financing statement (or
         as other evidence of the Lucent's purchase money security interest).

(b)      In addition to any other remedy available to Lucent as provided herein,
         by common law and by statute, Lucent may exercise its right to reclaim
         all Products sold to Vendor pursuant to U.C.C. Section 2-702 or such
         other applicable provision as it may exist from state to state, upon
         discovery of Vendor's insolvency, provided Lucent demands in writing
         reclamation of such Products before ten (10) days after receipt of such
         Products by Vendor, or if such 10 day period expires after the
         commencement of a bankruptcy case, before twenty (20) days after
         receipt of such Products by the Vendor.

34.      SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTES

The following procedures shall apply after the Effective Date to any dispute or
disagreement between the parties arising out of this Agreement, provided,
however, that this Clause shall not apply to indemnification claims arising
under this Agreement nor to actions for injunctive relief by one party against
the other.

(a)      Either party may give written notification of such dispute or
         disagreement to the other party, if the other party is Vendor, to the
         President and CEO of Vendor, or if the other party is Lucent, to the
         Vice President Sales, ASI Region ("RVP") (together being the Senior
         Executive Officers or "SEOs") and

(b)      The SEOs shall communicate with each other promptly with a view to
         resolving such dispute or disagreement within sixty (60) days of

38.      AGREEMENT

(a)      The terms and conditions contained in this Agreement supersede all
         prior oral or written understandings between the parties and shall
         constitute the entire Agreement between them concerning the subject
         matter of this Agreement and shall not be contradicted, explained or
         supplemented by any course of dealing between Lucent or any of its
         Affiliates and Vendor or any of its Affiliates. Lucent's employees,
         statements and its advertisements or descriptions other than its
         published specifications do not constitute warranties or other
         contractual obligations and shall not be relied upon by Vendor as such.
         There are no understandings or representations, express or implied, not
         expressly set forth in this Agreement. No terms or conditions contained
         in any order or other form originated by Vendor shall apply except for
         quantity, description, and delivery schedule terms. Notwithstanding
         anything herein to the contrary, the parties intend that any agreement
         between the parties not otherwise identified herein not related to the
         Vendor status shall continue unaffected by this Agreement.

(b)      This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except by a writing
         signed by the parties to be charged, and no changes or additions to
         this Agreement shall be binding upon Lucent unless signed by an
         authorized representative of Lucent.

(c)      Both parties acknowledge they are sophisticated business entities with
         access to legal and financial counsel of their choosing and that each
         has had the opportunity to comment
