Contract, shall furnish in writing to Owner the names of the Subcontractors
planned for each of the principal portions of the Work. Contractor shall not

objection. Contracts between Contractor and Subcontractors shall require each
Subcontractor, to the extent of the Work to be performed by the Subcontractor,
to be bound to Contractor by the terms of the Contract Documents, and to assume

<PAGE>

D.   Owner shall have no obligation to pay, or to see to the payment of, any

any contractual relationship between Owner and any Subcontractor or to create
any rights in any Subcontractor against Owner; provided that Owner shall be a
third party beneficiary of any warranty of any Subcontractor and shall have the
right to pursue claims for improper Work or other violations of this Contract

any default by Contractor in any of its obligations to such Subcontractor.
Except for Subcontractors approved pursuant to Section IV.B., the performance of
Contractor's right or obligations under this Contract may not be assigned by
Contractor without first obtaining consent therefor, in writing, from Owner
(which consent may be given or withheld in Owner's sole discretion) and any
attempted assignment without Owner's consent shall be void and unenforceable. In
the event Contractor assigns the right to receive the Contract Sum, upon written
notice thereof to Owner by Contractor, Contractor agrees that all payments to
become due under this Contract shall be by joint check to Contractor and
Contractor's assignee. If Contractor makes any such assignment, it shall not be
relieved of responsibility for any of its obligations under this Contract.

V.   SEPARATE CONTRACTORS

A.   Not an Exclusive Contract. Owner reserves the right to perform construction
or operations related to the Project with Owner's own forces. In the event that

representative of Owner and Contractor. Such Change Order Request Forms shall
set forth any changes to the project sum or project completion date. Change
Order approval, if granted (in whole or in part), will be communicated by Owner
to Contractor through an approved written Change Order Purchase Order. Owner and
Contractor will provide each other with a list of individuals who are authorized
representatives of their respective companies.

B.   Contractor shall notify Owner within five (5) working days after learning
about any potential claim, change to scope of work, or change to schedule.

over any change in Contract Sum or Contract Time shall be resolved pursuant to
Section IX. Contractor shall not stop work pending resolution, but shall comply
with Construction Change Order Directive.

VII. TIME

A.   Substantial Completion of the Work shall be defined as the date upon which
Contractor's Work has received final inspection and approval from the
appropriate governmental agency. Upon Substantial Completion, Contractor may
request that Owner pay Contractor an amount equal to one-hundred percent (100%)
of the Contract Sum less any prior payments, which payment shall be subject to
the other terms and conditions of this Agreement.

B.   If the Contractor is delayed at any time in the progress of the Work by
labor dispute, fire, unusual delay in delivery not the fault of the Contractor,
abnormal adverse weather conditions not reasonably anticipated, unavoidable
casualties or other causes beyond the Contractor's reasonable control (provided
that Contractor's inability to pay money shall not be considered beyond its
reasonable control) and not reasonably ascertainable

<PAGE>

pursuant to an investigation that was done (or reasonably could have been done)
pursuant to Section XV, then the Contract Time shall be extended by Change Order

100% of the invoices billed since there will no longer be a 10% credit given by
Contractor.

defective Work not remedied by Contractor, (2) claims) filed by a third party,

Owner a complete release of all liens arising out of each Purchase Order or a
bond satisfactory to Owner to indemnify Owner against such liens and receipts in

applicable. If any such lien remains unsatisfied after payments are made,
Contractor shall refund to Owner all money that Owner may be compelled to pay in
discharging such lien, including all costs, reasonable attorney's fees, and

Purchase Orders signed by the Owner prior to the termination date.

XIII. SAFETY; PROTECTION OF PERSONS AND PROPERTY

A.   Contractor shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining, and
supervising all safety precautions and programs in connection with the
performance of this Contract, and complying with all applicable state and
federal laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and orders related to persons on
the job site, including, without limitation, OSHA. Contractor shall take all
reasonable precautions for safety of, and shall provide reasonable protection
to, prevent damage, injury or loss to:

     1.  employees on the Work and other persons who may be affected thereby;

     2.  the Work and materials and equipment to be incorporated therein; and

     3.  other property at the site or adjacent thereto.

B.   Contractor shall be responsible for completing and having at each job site
a site specific fall protection plan.

C.   Contractor shall hold a safety meeting at each job site before work begins
at the particular job site. Documentation of the safety meeting shall be made
available to Owner upon request.

D.   Owner has the right to perform, or have an agent perform on its behalf,
periodic random safety inspections of the job site, without prior notice to
Contractor. Such safety inspection results shall be available to Owner;
otherwise such results will be deemed confidential material. If Owner becomes
aware of a safety violation, Owner may require Contractor to provide additional
safety precautions at Contractor's expense, including, but not limited to,
on-site safety supervisions.

E.   Contractor shall, at its sole cost, promptly remedy damage and loss to
person or property at the site caused in whole or in part by Contractor, a
Subcontractor, a Sub-subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by
any of them, or by anyone for whose acts they may be liable and for which the
Contractor is responsible.

F.   Without limiting any of Owner's other rights under this Contract or the
Contract Documents, Owner shall retain the right to stop the construction
activities of Contractor at any time on the basis of work quality (standard
construction practices) or concerns about safety with respect to Contractor or
any of its subcontractors.

G.   Contractor shall have a safety program in place that addresses all
applicable safety concerns, including those set forth above.

XIV. INTERPRETATION OF PLANS, CORRECTIVE WORK, GUARANTEE

The Work included under this Contract is to be completed to the reasonable
satisfaction of Owner. Contractor shall immediately take down all portions of
the Work found by the Owner as being improper, unsound or not in conformity with
the Plans and Specifications, and Contractor at its own expense shall make such
Work good;

<PAGE>

provided, however, that if the Work is not acceptable because of the materials
supplied by Owner, then Owner shall pay Contractor for the expense of making
such Work acceptable.

XV.  UNFORESEEN CONDITIONS. ADDITIONAL COSTS, AND INADEQUATE BID

A.   If Contractor's written Proposal does not cover all the Work as shown in
Owner-provided documents, then any additional costs and expenses to complete
those components of the Work shall be the responsibility of Owner. Prior to
Contractor starting such additional work, Owner shall be notified of any
additional costs or expenses and shall be advised of the excess amount that will
be due as a result of said additional work.

B.   Contractor will examine the site, the nature and location of the Work, the
local conditions, particularly those bearing on availability of transportation,
disposal, handling and storage of materials, availability of labor, water,
electric power, roads, and uncertainties of weather, or similar physical
conditions at the site, the conformation and conditions of the ground, the
character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the
prosecution of the Work, the difficulties of making and maintaining any required
excavations, and all other matters required to perform the Work. Contractor will
satisfy itself as to the character, quality, and quantities of Work to be
performed, materials to be furnished, and as to the requirements of this
Contract. Contractor will use its own judgment obtaining and interpreting any
necessary investigations or tests of the site.

C.   Contractor is responsible for requiring and obtaining any necessary
subsurface investigations and tests of the site, including information regarding
the site's projected soil-bearing values, rock profiles, soil stability and the
present, level, and extent of underground water. Contractor is responsible for
reviewing and evaluating all such information, regardless of the source of the
information, with the knowledge and due diligence of a construction
professional, and to advise Owner of any conditions Contractor believes to be
incorrect or inconsistent with the investigations and/or tests obtained.
Information derived from inspection of test results, of topographic maps, or
from plans showing location of utilities and structures will not in any way
relieve the Contractor from responsibility for properly examining the site and
making such additional investigations as it may elect, or from properly
fulfilling all the terms of this Contract, liability for any additional expense,
etc.

D.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the express intent of the parties to
this Contract that Owner bear the risk and full cost of any unexpected,
concealed, or changed conditions encountered at the site, whether such
conditions be related to the physical characteristics of the site, inclement
weather, availability of labor, location of utilities, or any other unexpected
or unanticipated condition or event.

XVI. ASSIGNMENT

     Neither party to this Contract shall assign this Contract or any interest
therein without written consent of the other party except in the event that the
assignee is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Owner or Contractor. However, in no
event shall ANY assignment serve to release the assigning party ("assignor")
from any liability incurred as a result of this Contract.

XVII. MISCELLANEOUS

A.   Governing Law/Venue and Jurisdiction. This Contract shall be governed by
the laws of the state where the Project is located. Venue in any action brought
with respect to this Agreement shall be in San Diego, California, and each party
consents to the jurisdiction of the courts sitting therein.

B.   Independent Contractor. Contractor is an independent contractor to the
Owner under this Contract. Nothing in this Contract shall be deemed to create a
relationship of employer-employee, principal-agent, partner, or joint venture
between Contractor and the Owner. Neither party has any authority to bind the
other to any contract or agreement without the other's written permission.
Contractor shall operate an independent business and agrees to be responsible
for all of Contractor's federal and state and local taxes, withholding, social
security, insurance, and other benefits. Upon request, Contractor shall provide
the Owner with satisfactory proof of independent contractor status (including
without limitation applicable business licenses). Contractor further warrants
that, in the event the Internal Revenue Service or any other state or local
agency determines that Contractor is a common law employee of the

<PAGE>

Owner and therefore subject to withholding and payroll taxes (e.g. federal
income tax, FICA, FUTA, etc.), Contractor shall fully indemnify Owner for all
such withholding and payroll taxes, and associated interest and penalties, if
any, assessed against Owner in connection with such determination.

C.   Entire Agreement. This Contract, together with the Contract Documents,
constitutes the complete Agreement between Owner and Contractor with respect to
the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior oral or written negotiations
or agreements relating to the Work. In the event there is a conflict between
Contractor's written Proposal and other aspects of this Contract, those other
aspects of this Contract shall prevail.

D.   Headings. The headings and subheadings used herein are for convenience only
and are not part of the Contract.

E.   Confidentiality Agreement. Contractor shall sign the confidentiality
agreement attached hereto as EXHIBIT C.

F.   Authority. The persons executing this Contact for Contractor and Owner
represent and warrant that they have all necessary company authority to execute
this Contract and bind the respective contracting party.

G.   Remedies. The parties agree that damages may be inadequate to compensate
for the unique losses to be suffered in the event of a breach hereof by the
other party. Accordingly, a party will be entitled, in addition to any other
remedy it may have under this Contract or at law, to seek and obtain injunctive
relief and other equitable relief, including specific performance of the terms
of this Contract, without the necessity of posting bond.

H.   Severabilitv. If any provisions of this Contract is held to be invalid or
unenforceable, then it shall be deemed severed from this Contract and a
replacement provision shall be deemed included herein to replace such severed
provision and to enforce the severed provision to the maximum extent permitted
by law.
