     during  the  year  following  the  Effective  Date  or  anniversary  of the
     Effective Date on which the fee is paid or payable:

     7.1.1     technical assistance;

     7.1.2     engineering   samples  of  Bishop   steering   technologies   for
               evaluation purposes;

     7.1.3     machine spares for Bishop-designed and manufactured  machines for
               the manufacture of Licensed Products; and

     7.1.4     on site support, training and maintenance,

     Provided that the cost of such goods and services in any one such year does
     not exceed the fee specified in Item 6 of the Schedule.

     Bishop will invoice Licensee monthly for such goods and services,  and will
     indicate in each  invoice the  cumulative  total of such  invoices  for the
     year, as compared with the  technology  assistance fee paid by Licensee for
     that year.

     If Licensee requires any engineering  samples or machine spares as referred
     to in 7.1.2 and 7.1.3,  it must  place a written  order for them on Bishop.
     Bishop will give Licensee a written quotation for the supply of the samples
     or spares.  If Licensee does not accept that quotation,  Bishop will not be
     obliged to supply the samples or spares.

     The cost of such goods and services will be calculated as follows:

     7.1.5     the  cost  of  the   technical   assistance,   on  site  support,
               maintenance   and  training   referred  to  in  7.1.1  and  7.1.4
               respectively  will be  calculated on the basis of the Labour Rate
               and the cost to Bishop of the  materials  used,  and will exclude
               any costs and expenses as referred to in 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 below;

     7.1.6     the cost of any  engineering  samples and machine spares supplied
               by Bishop, as referred to in 7.1.2 and 7.1.3  respectively,  will
               be the amount  quoted by Bishop in the  quotation for the samples
               or  spares  as the case may be  (calculated  on the  basis of the
               Labour  Rate,  Bishop's  then  current  prices  for the  goods in
               question, and the cost to Bishop of the materials used in any one
               such year), which has been accepted by Licensee,  with or without
               amendments agreed between Bishop and Licensee.

7.2  If Bishop agrees to supply  Licensee in any one year of this Agreement with
     goods  and/or  services as referred to in Clause 7.1 which  exceed in total
     value the fee specified in Item 6 of the Schedule, Licensee will pay Bishop
     for such excess (on the valuation  basis  referred to in Clause 7.1) within
     30 days of invoice.

7.3  Licensee may carry over up to 50% of the unused balance of any single years
     technical  assistance  fee up to a  maximum  of  A$50,000.00.  This  unused
     balance  will be deemed to be added to the  amount  specified  in Item 6 in
     respect  of the  subsequent  years and to have been paid by  licensee.  Any
     unused balance from any one year is limited to the following year only.

7.4  Bishop undertakes to accept visits from Licensee's  representatives for the
     purpose of providing technical  assistance and training.  Such visits shall
     be subject to mutually acceptable arrangements and timing and in accordance
     with Bishop's  current work load and  commitments.  All reasonable  travel,
     accommodation,  labour  and other  costs  incurred  by  Bishop  shall be at
     Licensee's expense.  All labour costs by Bishop (calculated on the basis of
     the Labour Rate) shall be fully reimbursed by Henglong.

     development  or project then Bishop  agrees to submit a proposal  outlining
     the  terms  Bishop  would be  prepared  to offer for doing  such  work.  If
     Licensee  accepts  the  Bishop  proposal,  it  will  issue  Bishop  with an
     appropriate purchase order.

7.7  If Bishop,  upon the  request of  Licensee,  agrees to provide  information
     pertaining  to Licensed  Products  which is not  available to Bishop at the
     date of the  request  and which has to be  specially  prepared  by  Bishop,
     Licensee shall promptly  reimburse  Bishop for all costs which it incurs in
     preparing such information for Licensee.

8.   COMPENSATION, RECORDS & REPORTS

8.1  In  consideration  of the licence  granted  pursuant to this  Agreement  by
     Bishop  to   Licensee,   Licensee   shall  pay  to  Bishop  the   following
     non-refundable amounts:

     8.1.1     For each Licensed  Product  manufactured  by Licensee the royalty
               specified in Item 5 of the Schedule.

     7.1.2     An annual technical  assistance fee, being as specified in Item 6
               of the  Schedule  for  each  and  every  year of the term of this
               Agreement,  and pro  rata  for any  part of a year to the date of
               expiration or  termination of this  Agreement.  Licensee will pay
               this fee 3 days after the Effective  Date and then within 30 days
               of each and every  anniversary of the Effective Date,  regardless
               of the amount of goods and/or  services  provided by Bishop under
               Clause 7.1 in the previous year. Licensee will open a irrevocable
               Letter of Credit equal to the value of the  technical  assistance
               fee for Year 2 to Year 5 inclusive with reputable bank.

8.2  The royalty  rates  specified in Items 5 of the  Schedule  shall be revised
     upon or as soon as  practicable  after  each and every  anniversary  of the
     Effective Date in accordance with the calculation in Item 7 of the Schedule
     and such revised  royalty  shall be effective  from and  including the next
     quarter immediately following such anniversary.

8.3  Royalties for each calendar quarter (or part in the case of a period at the
     beginning or end of this Agreement being less than a calendar  quarter) are
     payable,  unless otherwise agreed between Licensee and Bishop,  by the 15th
     day of the  second  month  following  the  end of  such  quarter  (15th  of
     February, May, August and November). All royalty payments are to be paid in
     Australian  Dollars [at the official rate (buying  rate)  prevailing at the
     Licensee's  bank in the Licensed  Manufacturing  Territory on the due dates
     for remittance].

8.4  Each royalty payment shall be accompanied by a report showing:

     8.4.1     For each  calendar  quarter,  the  number  of  Licensed  Products
               manufactured   in  that   quarter  by   Licensed   Product   type
               identification  number, vehicle make, model and all other details
               necessary or reasonably  requested by Bishop for  calculating the
               amounts payable to Bishop;

     8.4.2     If  requested  by Bishop  from time to time,  forward  orders and
               projected  sales of Licensee's  vehicles  incorporating  Licensed
               Products for the 10 years following the calendar quarter.

8.5  Licensee will advise Bishop immediately it decides to cease production of a
     model incorporating a Licensed Product.

8.6  Without limiting in any way Bishop's remedies  elsewhere  contained in this
     Agreement, Licensee must pay Bishop interest on all overdue payments due to
     Bishop under this  Agreement at the Indicator  Lending Rate of Interest (or
     its  successor  as the base rate of interest  charged on loans in excess of
     $100,000) from time to time charged by Westpac  Banking  Corporation,  plus
     three percent (3%) per annum,  calculated on daily rests from and including
     the due date to and  including  the date of  payment.  The  payment of such
     interest  shall  not  replace  any of  Bishop's  other  rights  under  this
     Agreement or at law resulting from Licensee's default by failure to pay any
     amount due.

8.7  Licensee  shall at all times  during the life of this  Agreement  and for 3
     years after its expiration or termination:

     8.7.1     keep  and  preserve  full and  proper,  accurate  and  up-to-date
               records  which  contain  complete  data from which amounts due to
               Bishop under this Agreement can be readily calculated;

     8.7.2     permit,    upon   reasonable    notice,   any   duly   authorised
               representative  of Bishop to have access to all relevant  records
               of Licensee;

     8.7.3     supply to such  representatives  upon request all information and
               explanations  required  by them to verify  the  reports  provided
               under  Clause  8.4 and  the  amounts  due to  Bishop  under  this
               Agreement; and

     8.7.4     permit such  representatives  to take copies of and extracts from
               the Licensee's records for the purposes of verification.

8.8  Bishop  will treat as  confidential  all and any  information  obtained  by
     Bishop or its  representatives  from Licensee under Clause 8.7 and will not
     disclose any such information to its other licensees.

8.9  Bishop  may from time to time  appoint  an  external  auditor  to audit the
     accounts  and records of Licensee  and/or the reports  provided by Licensee
     pursuant to Clause 8.4, and Licensee shall in the event of such appointment
     make available or cause to be made  available to such external  auditor all
     its accounts and records and shall provide or cause to be provided all such
     information and  explanations  as such auditor shall require.  The costs of
     such audit shall be borne by Bishop unless the audit reveals the Licensee's
     records or accounts or reports are  inaccurate or in error to the extent of
     2% or more of the  royalties or other  amounts  payable to Bishop,  for the
     period covered by such audit, in which case the auditor's fees and expenses
     shall be paid by the Licensee.

8.10 If Bishop  determines  that the amounts  payable to it under this Agreement
     have been  underpaid,  Licensee must  immediately  pay that difference plus
     interest to Bishop.

8.11 If requested  by Bishop,  Licensee  must pay on Bishop's  behalf and deduct
     from the payments due to Bishop under this Agreement,  the withholding tax,
     if any, imposed upon Bishop with respect to such payments by the country of
     the Licensee.  Licensee shall provide Bishop with evidence  proving payment
     of such withholding tax in the name of and on behalf of Bishop.

     (whether to subcontractors or otherwise).

     remove from this Agreement any Licensed Patent in respect of which Licensee
     has not commenced commercial  production of Licensed Products or in respect
     of which  Licensee has not  manufactured  Licensed  Products in  commercial
     quantities for at least 12 months.

10.2 Any removal under Clause 10.1 shall be  conditional  upon  Bishop's  giving
     Licensee 6 months'  notice of its  intention to remove the patents and will
     be effective immediately upon the expiration of the notice period.

     New South Wales and all Courts  competent to hear appeals from any of those
     Courts.

16.2 All  communications  whether  written or oral in respect of this  Agreement
     shall be in English.

16.3 Failure  of  either  party to insist  upon the  strict  performance  of any
     provisions  hereof or to exercise any right or remedy shall not be deemed a
     waiver of any right or remedy with  respect to any  existing or  subsequent
     breach or default;  the  election by any party of any  particular  right or
     remedy  shall  not be deemed to  exclude  any  other;  and all  rights  and
     remedies of all parties shall be cumulative.

16.4 If  any  provision  of  this  Agreement  is  void,  voidable,   illegal  or
     unenforceable in any state,  province or country in which this Agreement is
     intended to be  effective,  or if this  Agreement  would,  if a  particular
     provision were not omitted, be so void, voidable, illegal or unenforceable,
     then:

     16.4.1    if the  offending  provision  can be  read  down so as to make it
               valid and enforceable  without materially changing its effect, it
               must  be  read  down,  in so far as it  applies  in  that  state,
               province  or country,  to the extent  necessary  to achieve  that
               result;

     16.4.2    otherwise, that provision shall be severed from this Agreement in
               so far as it applies in that state, province or country, and this
               Agreement  shall be read and  construed and shall take effect for
               all  purposes  in that  state,  province  or  country  as if that
               provision  were not contained in this  Agreement,  but without in
               any  way  affecting  the  effectiveness,  validity,  legality  or
               enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

16.5 Licensee may not assign the benefit of or any of its rights or  obligations
     under this Agreement  without the prior written consent of Bishop which may
     be granted or withheld in the  absolute  discretion  of Bishop and which if
     granted may be granted  subject to such terms and  conditions as Bishop may
     prescribe.

     Licensee will be deemed to have assigned its rights and  obligations  under
     this Agreement if:

     16.5.1    any body corporate or any related  bodies  corporate not holding,
               or not holding  between them,  as at the date of this  Agreement,
               more  than 50% of the  issued  capital  or  voting  rights of the
               Licensee,  acquires or acquire between them so much of the issued
               capital or voting  rights of the  Licensee  as, when added to the
               issued capital or voting rights (if any)  previously held by such
               body  corporate  or related  bodies  corporate,  represent in the
