                  3. Representations by and Covenants of Amendola and GP
Strategies

                  (a) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies acknowledges that the
Company is a private corporation which intends to file a registration statement
(the "Registration Statement") for its initial public offering on Form S-1 with
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") pursuant to the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").


                  (b) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies recognizes that the
acceptance of the Shares and the Options (collectively, the "Securities")
involves a high degree of risk in that (i) the Company will need additional
capital but has no assurance of additional necessary capital; (ii) an investment
in the Company is highly speculative and only investors who can afford the loss
of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company and the
Securities; (iii) an investor may not be able to liquidate his investment; (iv)
transferability of the Securities is extremely limited; and (v) an investor
could sustain the loss of his entire investment, as well as other risks, as more
fully set forth herein and in the Offering Documents (as hereinafter defined).



                  (c) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies represents that he or
it is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities and can
afford the loss of his or its entire investment.



                  (d) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies acknowledges that he or
it has prior investment experience, including investments in non-listed and
non-registered securities, or he or it has employed the services of an
investment advisor, attorney or accountant to read all of the documents
furnished or made available by the Company both to him and to all other
prospective investors in the Securities and to evaluate the merits and risks of
such an



                                      -3-
<PAGE>   4
investment on his or its behalf, and that he or it recognizes the highly
speculative nature of this investment.

                  (e) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies acknowledges receipt
and careful review of a draft of the Registration Statement (draft dated April
7, 2000) and the attachments thereto (the "Offering Documents") and hereby
represents that he or it has been furnished by the Company during the course of
this transaction with all information regarding the Company which he or it had
requested or desired to know; that all documents which could be reasonably
provided have been made available for his or its inspection and review; that he
or it has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers
from duly authorized officers or other representatives of the Company concerning
the terms and conditions of the Offering, and any additional information which
he or it had requested.


                  (f) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies acknowledges that the
offering of the Securities respectively contemplated hereby may involve tax
consequences, and that the contents of the Offering Documents do not contain tax
advice or information. Each of Amendola and GP Strategies acknowledges that he
or it must retain his or its own professional advisors to evaluate the tax and
other consequences of an investment in the Securities, respectively.



                 (g) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies acknowledges that the
offering of the Securities respectively contemplated hereby has not been
reviewed by the SEC because of the Company's representations that this is
intended to be a nonpublic offering pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act. Each of
Amendola and GP Strategies represents that the Securities respectively to be
acquired by him or it pursuant hereto are being acquired for his or its own
account, for investment and not for distribution or resale to others. Each of
Amendola and GP Strategies agrees that he or it will



                                      -4-
<PAGE>   5
not sell or otherwise transfer such securities unless they are registered under
the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available.


                  (h) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies understands that the
Securities respectively have not been registered under the Act by reason of a
claimed exemption under the provisions of the Act which depends, in part, upon
his or its investment intention. In this connection, each of Amendola and GP
Strategies understands that it is the position of the SEC that the statutory
basis for such exemption would not be present if his or its representation
merely meant that his or its present intention was to hold such securities for a
short period, such as the capital gains period of tax statutes, for a deferred
sale, for a market rise, assuming a market develops, or for any other fixed
period. Each of Amendola and GP Strategies realizes that, in the view of the
SEC, acceptance of Options now with an intent to resell would create a purchase
with an intent inconsistent with his or its representation to the Company, and
the SEC might regard such a sale or disposition as a deferred sale to which such
exemptions are not available.



                  (i) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies understands that there
is no public market for the Securities. Each of Amendola and GP Strategies
understands that even if a public market were to exist following the Company's
proposed initial public offering for the Common Stock, Rule 144 (the "Rule")
promulgated under the Act requires, among other conditions, a one year holding
period prior to the resale (in limited amounts) of securities acquired in a
nonpublic offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements under
the Act. Each of Amendola and GP Strategies understands that the Company makes
no representation or warranty regarding its fulfillment in the future of any
reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or
its dissemination to the public of any current financial or other information
concerning the Company, as is required by the Rule as one



                                      -5-
<PAGE>   6

of the conditions of its availability. Each of Amendola and GP Strategies
understands and hereby acknowledges that the Company is under no obligation to
register the Securities to be issued pursuant to this Agreement under
the Act. Each of Amendola and GP Strategies consents that the Company may, if it
desires, permit the transfer of the Shares and the securities comprising the
Options respectively out of his or its name only when his or its request for
transfer is accompanied by an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Company that neither the sale nor the proposed transfer results in a violation
of the Act or any applicable state "blue sky" laws (collectively "Securities
Laws"). Each of Amendola and GP Strategies agrees to hold the Company and its
directors, officers and controlling persons and their respective heirs,
representatives, successors and assigns harmless and to indemnify them against
all liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by them as a result of any
misrepresentation made by him or it contained herein or any sale or distribution
by each of Amendola and GP Strategies in violation of any Securities Laws.


                 (j) Each of Amendola and GP Strategies consents to the
placement of one or more legends on any certificate or other document evidencing
his or its Shares or Options respectively and the common Stock stating that they
have not been registered under the Act and setting forth or referring to the
restrictions on transferability and sale thereof.

         4. Representations of The Company

         The Company represents and warrants to Amendola and GP Strategies that:

                  (a) The Company is a corporation duly organized, existing and
in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the corporate
power to conduct the business which it conducts and proposes to conduct.

<PAGE>   7

                 (b) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
by the Company will have been duly approved by the Board of Directors of the
Company and all other actions required to authorize and effect the offer, sale
and transfer of the Securities will have been duly taken and approved.



                 (c) The Shares have been duly and validly authorized, issued
and fully paid and nonassessable.



                 (d) The Options have been duly and validly authorized and when
exercised, the shares of Common Stock, upon payment of the applicable exercise
price, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.



                 (e) The Company has obtained, or is in the process of
obtaining, all licenses, permits and other governmental authorizations necessary
to the conduct of its business; such licenses, permits and other governmental
authorizations obtained are in full force and effect; and the Company is in all
material respects complying therewith.



                 (f) The Company knows of no pending or threatened legal or
governmental proceedings to which the Company is a party which could materially
adversely affect the business, property, financial condition or operations of
the Company.



                 (g) The Company is not in violation of or default under, nor
will the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the issuance of the Shares
and the Options, and the incurrence of the obligations herein and therein set
forth and the consummation of the transactions herein or therein contemplated,
result in a violation of, or constitute a default under, the certificate of
incorporation or by-laws of the Company, in the performance or observance of any
material obligations, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any bond,
debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness or in any material contract,
indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, lease, joint venture or other agreement or
instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its
properties may be bound or in violation of any material order, rule, regulation,
writ,



                                      -7-

injunction, or decree of any government, governmental instrumentality or court,
domestic or foreign.

         5.       Miscellaneous

                  (a) This Agreement and the rights of the parties hereto shall
be governed as to the validity, construction, enforcement and in all other
respects by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of
laws rules.

                  (b) At any time, and from time to time, each party hereby
agrees with the other party that it will execute such additional instruments and
take such actions as may be reasonably requested by such other party in order
for it to realize the benefit of the transactions contemplated hereby.

                  (c) This Agreement embodies the entire agreement and
understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior
agreements and understandings between the parties hereto, written or oral,
relating to the subject matter hereof.

                  (d) This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts
which, taken together, shall constitute the original action of the signatories
