2       PERIOD OF THIS AGREEMENT

2.1     This  Agreement  shall commence on the Effective Date and continue until
        terminated in accordance with clause 19 of this Agreement.

3       PROVISION OF SERVICES

3.1     Each Schedule  attached to and made a part of this  Agreement  describes
        the  services  to be provided by Service  Provider  to the  Company,  as
        amended  from time to time by  written  agreement  of the  Parties  (the
        "Services").  The Parties  have made a good faith  effort as of the date
        hereof to  identify  each  Service  and to  complete  the content of the
        Schedules accurately. It is anticipated that the Parties will modify the
        Services  from  time to time.  In that  case or to the  extent  that any
        Schedule  is  incomplete,  the  Parties  will use good faith  efforts to
        modify the  Schedules.  There are  certain  terms that are  specifically
        addressed  in the  Schedules  attached  hereto  that may differ from the
        terms provided  hereunder.  In those cases, the specific terms described
        in the Schedules shall govern.

3.2     The  Parties may also  identify  additional  Services  that they wish to
        incorporate  into this  Agreement.  The Parties  will create  additional
        Schedules  setting forth the description of such Services,  the fees for
        such Services and any other applicable terms.

3.3     Subject to the terms of this Agreement,  Service Provider  undertakes to
        and shall provide the Services to the Company to the best of its ability
        at all times and to a standard  that would  reasonably be expected of it
        by a professional, independent person or body.

3.4     Without  prejudice to clause 3.3, to the extent that Service Provider is
        unable to  perform  any part of the  Services  in  accordance  with this
        Agreement,   it  shall   advise  the  Company  as  soon  as   reasonably
        practicable.   In  addition,  Service  Provider  shall,  to  the  extent
        possible,  advise the Company of a timetable for it to be able to resume
        full  performance of the Services in accordance  with this Agreement and
        the steps it is taking in that regard. Service Provider shall notify the
        Company  to the  extent  there is  likely to be any  deviation  from the
        timetable proposed.

3.5     The Parties  acknowledge  and agree that Service  Provider and the Staff
        shall be entitled  to provide  similar  services as the  Services to any
        other  legal  entity,  provided  that in doing so the  operation  of the
        Company is not unreasonably prejudiced and the provision of the Services
        to the Company is not materially adversely affected. The Parties further
        acknowledge  and agree that the  Company  may retain any  individual  or
        legal  entity,  other than Service  Provider  and the Staff,  to perform
        services similar or identical to the Services; provided that in doing so
        the ability of Service  Provider to perform any part of the  Services in
        accordance with this Agreement is not materially adversely affected.

4       PROVISION OF STAFF TO PERFORM THE SERVICES

4.1     Service Provider  acknowledges it has been given sufficient  information
        to understand  and  appreciate  the  requirements  and operations of the
        Company relating to the provision of the Services currently described in
        each Schedule.  Service  Provider shall and undertakes to provide at all
        times,  Staff  or  Non-SCA  Third  Party  Contractors  of the  requisite
        calibre,  and with appropriate training and experience and in sufficient
        numbers as required by the Company and as agreed between the Parties and
        in accordance with the attached Schedules.

4.2     The Company  acknowledges  and agrees that at the  commencement  of this
        Agreement  the Staff or Non-SCA  Third  Party  Contractors  provided  to
        perform the  Services are of the  requisite  calibre,  have  appropriate
        experience and training and are of a sufficient number.

4.3     If Service  Provider  cannot  provide Staff to perform the Services,  it
        shall,  with the agreement of the Company,  contract or subcontract with
        Non-SCA Third Party  Contractors to provide all or part of the Services.
        The  direction and  management  of the Non-SCA  Third Party  Contractors
        provided  to perform the  Services on behalf of the Company  will be the
        responsibility  of  Service  Provider,  unless  otherwise  agreed by the
        Parties in writing  but only to the extent  that  Service  Provider  has
        contracted directly with such Non-SCA Third Party Contractors.

5       THIRD PARTY CONTRACTORS

5.1     The Company  acknowledges  and agrees that the provision of the Services
        may in part be delegated or contracted or  subcontracted  to Third Party
        Contractors by Service Provider.

        including, but not limited to, for the provision of the Services, either
        on its own  behalf or on its own  behalf  and on behalf of the  Company,
        whichever Service Provider  reasonably deems appropriate and in the best
        interests of the Company.

5.3     When  entering  into  contracts  with Third Party  Contractors,  Service
        Provider  will  have  regard to the  stated  interests  of the  Company,
        including,  but  not  limited  to,  the  identity  of  the  Third  Party
        Contractor, the terms, costs and period of the contract.

5.4     To  the  extent   Service   Provider   delegates  to,  or  contracts  or
        subcontracts  with,  Third Party  Contractors to perform any part of the
        Services  or to  perform  specific  functions,  Service  Provider  shall
        (remain  responsible  and)  be  liable  to the  Company  for  the  (non)
        performance  of the Services and the (non)  performance of such specific
        functions in their entirety (and for the oversight and management of the

        unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company.

6.1     Except to the extent set out in clauses 6.2, to 6.3 below or as a result
        of a breach by the Company of its obligations under Clause 15.1, Service
        Provider  shall be  liable to  indemnify  the  Company  for any loss the
        Company incurs  (including  defence costs) caused by (i) the acts and/or
        omissions of Service Provider, its employees,  directors and officers in
        providing the Services,  (ii) the breaches of  obligations,  acts and/or
        omissions of Third Party  Contractors,  and (iii) the failure of Service
        Provider to abide by the terms and  conditions of this  Agreement.  Both
        Parties shall take all  reasonable  steps to mitigate any loss including
        pursuing recovery from any third party. Where  appropriate,  the Parties
        further  agree they will  consult each other in respect of such steps in
        accordance with clause 10 below.

6.2     Service  Provider  shall not be liable to the  Company in respect of any
        loss caused by acts of God, or any event beyond the  reasonable  control
        of  the  Parties,   including   but  not  limited  to   nationalization,
        expropriation, devaluation, seizure, or similar action by any government
        authority, de facto or de jure; or acts of war, terrorism,  insurrection
        or revolution.

6.3     Service Provider agrees to take all reasonable steps to recover any loss
        suffered  by the  Company  (for  which  Service  Provider  is  liable to
        indemnify  the  Company  under this  Agreement)  from any insurer or any
        third party liable to Service Provider in respect of

<PAGE>
                                      -4-


        such loss.  Provided that Service Provider complies with such obligation
        in a timely manner,  the Company agrees to delay commencing  proceedings
        against  Service  Provider  to enforce  payment in respect of any claim,
        which it may have  under  this  Agreement  until such time as and to the
        extent that Service  Provider has  obtained  recovery  against any third
        party  (including  but  not  limited  to  Third  Party  Contractors  and
        insurers) in respect of such losses.

7       INSURANCE

7.1     Service  Provider  undertakes it or one of its  affiliates  has and will
        maintain   throughout   the  duration  and  period  of  this   Agreement
        appropriate errors and omissions and directors' and officers'  insurance
        in full force and effect to cover its liabilities to third parties.

8       LIMITATION OF AUTHORITY

8.1     Except as expressly  provided for in this Agreement,  or by the Company,
        neither  Service  Provider  nor the Staff shall enter into any  contract
        (including  verbal)  on  behalf  of the  Company  or  commit or bind the
        Company to any agreement or obligation,  or hold it or themselves out as
        having authority to do so.

9       COMPLIANCE

9.1     In providing the Services,  Service Provider shall, to the extent within
        its  control,  comply  with,  and  will  not do  anything  or fail to do

        applicable  laws,  legislation  and  regulations.  In addition,  Service
        Provider shall comply with relevant principles and guidelines,  manuals,
        codes and policies  issued by the Company to the extent it is made aware
        of such principles and guidelines,  manuals,  codes and policies.  It is

        legal compliance.

9.2     Service   Provider  shall  direct  all  enquiries  from  any  regulatory

                offence  which  may  materially  affect  the  operation  of this
                Agreement.

19.3    Each Party shall inform the other immediately upon becoming aware of the
        occurrence of any of the events set out in Clause 19.2 above.

19.4    In the event of persistent and material breaches of any discreet part of
        the Services,  the Company shall inform the  Representatives  of Service
        Provider in writing of the nature of such breaches.  The Representatives
        shall meet as soon as reasonably  practicable  to discuss these breaches
        (such meeting being  expected to occur within seven (7) business days of
        receipt of the written  notice) and try to agree an action plan designed
        to remedy the breaches within a reasonable  timeframe  acceptable to the
        Company.  Should  an  action  plan not be  agreed  within  a  reasonable
        timeframe,  or the  implementation  of an action  plan not result in the
        Services  being   performed  to  the  specified   standards,   then  the
        Representatives  shall raise the matter with the Steering Committee,  in
        accordance with clause 10 above. If the material  breaches  continue and
        the  Steering  Committee  does not  provide a  resolution  to the matter
        within  a  reasonable  timeframe,  then  the  Company  has the  right to
        terminate the relevant part of the Services with one (1) month's notice.
        Such  termination  will not affect the  continuance  of the Services not
        subject to the persistent and material breaches.

        Provider  will  cooperate  in good faith with the Company to provide the
        Company (or its designee) with reasonable  assistance to make an orderly
        transition  from Service  Provider to another  supplier of the Services.
        Service Provider  undertakes to work with the Company to ensure a smooth
