Re:  Lock-Up Agreement (the "Agreement")
     -----------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

1.        General. The undersigned (the "Stockholder") is an owner of record, or
          -------
     beneficially the owner, of such number of shares of Common Stock, par value
     $0.00001 per share ("Common Stock"), of Universe2U Inc., a Nevada
     corporation (the "Company"), and/or securities convertible into or
     exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock ("Derivative Securities"), as
     set forth on the signature page hereto. The Stockholder understands that
     the Company proposes to raise additional capital through private financing
     (the "Refinancing Plan"). The Stockholder recognizes that the Refinancing
     Plan will be of benefit to the Stockholder and will benefit the Company by,
     among other things, providing an enhanced basis upon which the Company may
     possibly raise additional capital for its operations. The Stockholder
     acknowledges that the Company and other stockholders of the Company are
     expressly relying on the covenants, representations, and agreements of the
     Stockholder contained in this letter for purposes of carrying out the
     Refinancing Plan. The Company agrees that any decision whether to enter
     into any and all financing arrangements during the Effective Period (as
     defined below) will be at the Company's sole discretion upon the consent of
     its Board of Directors.

2.        Lockup. To induce prospective financing sources to provide capital to
          ------
     the Company, the Stockholder hereby agrees that it will not, during the
     period commencing on the date hereof and ending one year from the date
     hereof (the "Effective Period"), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell,
     sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to
     sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise
     transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock
     or any Derivative Securities locked up under this agreement, or (2) enter
     into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or
     in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock
     or any Derivative Securities locked up under this agreement, whether any
     such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by
     delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.

3.        No Hedging. The foregoing restrictions are expressly agreed to
          ----------
     preclude the Stockholder from engaging in any hedging or other transaction
     which is designed to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a sale
     or disposition of the Common Stock even if such Common Stock would be
     disposed of by someone other than the Stockholder. Such prohibited hedging
     or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or
     any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any
     put option or put equivalent position or call option or call equivalent
     position) with respect to any of the Common Stock or with respect to any
     security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its
     value from such Common Stock.

4.        No Encumbrances. The Stockholder has title to all of shares owned of
          ---------------
     record, in each case subject to no mortgage, pledge, lien, security
     interest, conditional sale agreement, encumbrance, or charge, and the
     Stockholder undertakes not to subject any of such shares, or any shares
     issuable upon the exercise of any Derivative Securities, to any mortgage,
     pledge, lien, security interest, conditional sale agreement, encumbrance,
     or charge during the Effective Period except in accordance with the terms
     and conditions of this Agreement. The Stockholder further represents that
     it has no contract, undertaking, agreement, or arrangement with any person
     to sell, transfer, or grant participation to such person or to any third
     person, with respect to any of the shares of Common Stock except in
     accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

5.        Lockup Minimum Threshold. To induce the Stockholder to enter into this
          ------------------------
     Agreement, the Company and the Stockholder agree that this Agreement shall
     not be binding nor take effect unless and until the Company has obtained
     executed consent in the form of this Agreement with the owners of record,
     or beneficial owners, of an aggregate minimum of twenty-nine million

                                       1

<PAGE>

    (29,000,000) shares of Common Stock and all of the Derivative Securities
     held by affiliates, officers and directors of the Company and all
     certificates, instruments and option forms representing the same (the
     "Minimum Threshold"). In the event the Minimum Threshold is not obtained
     within 10 days following the date approved by the Board of Directors for
     solicitation of shareholders, this Agreement shall be of no further force
     or effect except as set forth in Section 22.

6.        Options Price Reset. To induce the officers, directors and employees
          -------------------
     of the Company to enter into this Agreement, the Company and the
     Stockholder agree that the exercise price of any and all of Stockholder's
     "out-of-money" options shall be reset to a purchase price of $0.75 per
     share of Common Stock and the Expiration Date for all such options shall be
     extended to March 31, 2007. In addition, any contractual provisions
     applicable to such options which may require the Stockholder to exercise
     such options within 30 days of leaving the Company shall be removed from
     the Option Agreement for all Options submitted to this Agreement. In
     addition, the Optionee shall have the right to exercise any and all such
     options on a "cashless" basis. Optionee may convert any and all vested
     options to common stock during the Effective Period, provided, however,
     that such Securities shall be and shall remain subject to the terms and
     conditions of this Agreement.

7.        Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stockholder may
          ----------
     transfer shares of Common Stock or Derivative Securities (i) as a bona fide
     gift or gifts, provided that the donee or donees thereof agree in writing
     to be bound by the restrictions set forth herein; (ii) following unanimous
     approval of the Board of Directors, to any person, trust or other legal
     entity, in a non-public transaction exempted from registration under the
     Securities Act, provided that such transferee and/or entity agrees in
     writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and provided further
     that any and all certificates and/or instruments representing the Common
     Stock or Derivative Securities which are the subject matter of such
     transfer remain under the sole control of the Escrow Agent, except with
     respect to delivery to the Company's transfer agent and return to the
     Escrow Agent for purposes of registration of the transfer of title thereof.
     In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Stockholder is a
     corporation, the corporation may transfer the capital stock of the Company
     to any wholly-owned subsidiary of such corporation; provided, however, that
     in any such case, it shall be a condition to the transfer that the
     transferee execute an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving
     and holding such capital stock subject to the provisions of this Agreement
     and there shall be no further transfer of such capital stock except in
     accordance with this Agreement. During the Effective Period, the Company
     agrees that it shall not issue any Common Stock or any Derivative
     Securities except in connection with the Refinancing Plan; (iii) a pledge
     by any stockholder that would directly benefit the company as approved by
     the Officers of the Company.

8.        No Warranties; Informed Consent. The Stockholder understands that
          -------------------------------
     whether or not the Refinancing Plan is successful depends on a number of
     factors, including, without limitation, prospects for near-term performance
     of the Company and stock market conditions. The Company makes no
     representation or warranty that the Refinancing Plan will be successful or
     that the Company will enter into any arrangements or agreements that will
     provide any financing to the Company. The legally binding obligations set
     forth herein shall not be contingent on the success or results of the
     Refinancing Plan. The Stockholder represents that: (a) it has such
     knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable
     of evaluating the merits and risks of entering into this Agreement; (b) it
     believes it has received all the information it has requested from the
     Company and considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to
     enter into this Agreement; (c) it has had the opportunity to discuss the
     Company's business, management, and financial affairs with the Company's
     management, (d) it has the ability to bear the economic risks of this
     Agreement; and (e) it is able, without materially impairing its financial
     condition, to subject its shares of Common Stock and/or Derivative
     Securities to the terms of this Agreement during the Effective Period and
     to suffer a complete loss on its investment if the Refinancing Plan is not
     successful.

9.        Escrow. The Company and the Stockholder agree that any and all shares
          ------
     of Common Stock and Derivative Securities, which are subject to this
     Agreement, shall be placed in physical escrow and shall be maintained in
     paper form until the end of the Effective Period subject to the terms of
     this Agreement. Such escrow shall be subject to the terms and conditions of
     the escrow agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A. In the event of any
                                             ---------
     conflict between the escrow agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement
     shall control.

10.       No Ancillary Restrictions. Except for the foregoing escrow, the
          -------------------------
     Company shall not request the Company's transfer agent to place any
     restrictive transfer legends on any of the shares of Common Stock or shares
     issuable upon exercise of Derivative Securities for any reason except as
     may be required under U.S. federal securities laws, and the Company shall
     not issue any instructions to the Company's transfer agent preventing the
     transferability of any such shares of Common Stock or Derivative Securities
     for any reason, and to the extent any such instructions have previously
     been given for any reason, such instructions shall

                                       2

<PAGE>

     irrevocably be removed pursuant to a supplemental instruction provided in
     writing upon commencement of the Effective Period.

11.       Beneficial Rights. Notwithstanding the terms of the Escrow, the owner
          -----------------
     of record of each issued and outstanding share of Common Stock subject to
     this Agreement shall continue to have one vote per share. Such owners of
     record shall not vote separately as a class. Except for the limitations on
     disposition set forth herein, owners of record of Common Stock subject to
     this Agreement shall be entitled to any and all rights incident to
     ownership of their respective securities, including, without limitation,
     notice of any shareholders' meetings, dividends, and stock splits in
     accordance with the Company's charter instruments. Nothing in this
     Agreement shall be construed to operate as a proxy to grant to any person
     the right to vote any of the shares of Common Stock which are subject to
     this Agreement or to grant to any person a power-of-attorney with respect
     to powers of disposition over any of the shares of Common Stock or any
     Derivative Securities subject to this Agreement.

12.       Due Authorization and Binding Intent. If the holder of shares of
          ------------------------------------
     Common Stock or Derivative Securities is a corporation, partnership trust,
     estate or other legal entity, the person executing this Agreement on behalf
     of such legal entity represents and warrants to the Company that such
     person has reached the age of 21 and has been duly authorized and is fully
     qualified to execute and deliver this Agreement, and this Agreement does
     not result in any violation of, or conflict with any term of the charter,
     bylaws, partnership agreement, trust instrument or other governing
     instrument of such legal entity or any other agreement to which it is bound
     or any law or regulation applicable to it. If the Common Stock and/or
     Derivative Securities are held in joint-tenancy, tenancy-in-common and/or
     subject to spousal consent or subject to any other similar statutory law,
     common law, rule, regulation, court order, contract or understanding of any
     nature with respect to any prerequisite authorization prior to execution of
     this Agreement, the Stockholder represents and warrants that any and all
     such consents have been obtained and duly documented under reasonable
     conditions of fully informed consent.

13.       Arbitration. Except for injunctive relief as provided below, the
          -----------
     parties hereto agree to submit to arbitration any and all matters in
     dispute or in controversy among them concerning the terms and provisions of
     this Agreement. All such disputes and controversies shall be determined and
     adjudged by the decision of a panel of three arbitrators (hereinafter
     sometimes called the "Arbitration Panel"). Each party shall select one
     arbitrator for the Arbitration Panel and the two such arbitrators shall
     mutually select a third arbitrator for the Arbitration Panel. Arbitration
     shall take place in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, or such other place as the
     parties hereto may agree in writing. The Arbitration Panel shall reach and
     render a decision in writing with respect to the amount, if any, of payment
     respecting the disputed matter. Any award rendered shall be final and
     conclusive upon the parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in any
     court of the forum, provincial, state, federal or national, having
     jurisdiction. The fees and expenses of the Arbitration Panel and the
     respective fees and expenses of the parties hereto in connection with any
     such arbitration (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and
     expenses of legal counsel and consultants) shall be paid by the party
     against whom a decision by the Arbitration Panel is rendered, provided,
     however, that the Arbitration Panel shall be specially empowered, in
     addition to making any award, to award fees and expenses of the prevailing
     party to be paid by the non-prevailing party. If the two arbitrators are
     unable to agree on a third arbitrator within 10 business days of the
     commencement of arbitration, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the
     American Arbitration Association who shall be an attorney with not less
     than ten years of corporate and securities legal experience. In the event
     any matter or issue in connection with this Agreement requires the
     interpretation of law, this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
     accordance with the laws of Nevada without giving effect to any choice of
     law principles that would require the application of the laws of a
     different state or jurisdiction.

14.       Injunctive Remedies. The remedies provided in this Agreement shall be
          -------------------
     cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this
     Agreement, under arbitration, law or in equity (including a decree of
     specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), no remedy contained
     herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving
     rise to such remedy and nothing herein shall limit either party's right to
     pursue actual damages for any failure by the other party to comply with the
     terms of this Agreement. Each of the parties acknowledge that a breach by
     it of its respective obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to
     the other party and that any remedy at law for any such breach may be
     inadequate. Each party therefore agrees that, notwithstanding anything to
     the contrary herein, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach,
     each party shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies,
     to an injunction issued by any court of competent jurisdiction restraining
     any breach of this Agreement, without the necessity of showing economic
     loss and without any bond or other security being required.

     such other address as such party may designate by five (5) business days
     advance written notice to the other parties hereto.

19.       Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be
          ------------
     invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and
     enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
     or impaired thereby.

20.       Indemnities. Each party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the

     reasonable attorney's fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by such
     other party as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the
     representations, warranties or covenants made by such party herein. In the
     event that any dispute among the parties to this Agreement should result in
     an action for injunction or arbitration, the prevailing party in such
     dispute shall be entitled to recover all fees, costs and expenses of
     enforcing any right of such prevailing party under this Agreement,
     including without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys
     and all fees, costs and expenses of appeals.

21.       Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of

                            Form of Escrow Agreement

                                ESCROW AGREEMENT

               THIS AGREEMENT made as of the* day of April, 2002.

BETWEEN:

                       The persons whose names are set out
                             in the First Column of
                           Schedule "A" annexed hereto

                            (the "Security Holders")

                                                              OF THE FIRST PART;

                                     - and -

                          Equity Transfer Services Inc.
                    a corporation formed and subsisting under
                       the laws of the Province of Ontario

                              (the "Escrow Agent")

                                                             OF THE SECOND PART;

       WHEREAS the Security Holders have agreed to enter into a Lock-Up
       Agreement dated April *, 2002, pursuant to which each of the Security
       Holders has agreed to deposit with the Escrow Agreement the number of
       Common Shares of Universe2U Inc. (the "Issuer") indicated in Schedule A
       attached hereto (the "Escrowed Shares");

         AND WHEREAS the Escrow Agent has agreed to undertake and perform its
duties according to the terms and conditions hereof;

         NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSETH that for and in consideration
of the aforesaid agreements, and of the sum of one dollar ($1.00) now paid by
the parties hereto each to the other (receipt of which sum the parties do hereby
respectively acknowledge each to the other) the Security Holder and the Escrow
Agent covenant and agree each with the other as follows:

1.       Contemporaneous with the execution of this Agreement, the Security
         Holders hereby place and deposit in escrow with the Escrow Agent the
         Escrowed Shares and hereby undertake and agree forthwith to deliver
         those certificate(s) representing the Escrowed Shares (including any
         replacement securities or certificates if and when such are issued) to
         the Escrow Agent for deposit in escrow.

2.       The parties hereby agree that the Escrowed Shares and the beneficial
         ownership of or any interest in them and the certificates representing
         them (including any replacement securities or certificates) shall not
         be sold, assigned, hypothecated, pledged, charged, alienated, released
         from escrow, transferred within escrow, or otherwise in any manner
         dealt with, until such Escrowed Shares are released to the Security
         Holders in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. The foregoing
         shall not prevent any transfer or assignment of title to the Escrowed
         Shares that may be required by reason of the death, bankruptcy or
         dissolution, as the case may be, of any of the Security Holders, in
         which case, the Escrow Agent shall thereafter hold the said securities
         and certificates in escrow, subject to the provisions of this
         Agreement, for whatever person or company shall be legally entitled to
         be or become the registered owner thereof. In addition, should an
         officer, director, or employee of the Company terminate their
         relationship with the Company for any reason, if requested the
         securities held shall be released from this Agreement provided that the
         number of securities does not drop below the Minimum Threshold.

3.       It is agreed that the Escrowed Shares will be released from escrow on
         the 365/th/ day following the date of this Agreement.

4.       The Security Holders hereby direct the Escrow Agent to retain the
         Escrowed Shares and the certificates (including any replacement
         securities or certificates) representing the same and not to do or
         cause anything to be done to release the same from escrow or to allow
         any sale, assignment, hypothecation, pledge, charge, or alienation
         thereof except in accordance with the terms hereof. The Escrow Agent
         accepts the responsibilities placed on it hereby and agrees to perform
         the same according to the terms hereof.

5.   Other than as set out in Section 2, nothing in this Agreement shall
     diminish the rights of the Security Holder as shareholders of the Issuer.
     If during the period in which any of the Escrowed Shares retained in escrow
     pursuant hereto any cash dividend is received by the Escrow Agent in
     respect of the Escrowed Shares, any such cash dividend shall be forthwith
     paid or transferred to the Security Holder entitled thereto. If during the
     period in which any of the Escrowed Shares are retained in escrow pursuant
     hereto, any share dividend or other distribution of securities is received
     by the Escrow Agent in respect of the Escrowed Shares, any certificates
     representing such share dividend or securities must be held by the Escrow
     Agent on and subject to the terms of this agreement. If during the period
     in which any of the Escrowed Shares are retained in escrow pursuant hereto,
     any share dividend or other distribution of securities is received by the
     Security Holders in respect of the escrowed securities, any certificates
     representing such share dividend or securities must be forthwith deposited
     with the Escrow Agent to be held by the Escrow Agent on and subject to the
     terms of this agreement.

6.   All voting rights attached to the Escrowed Shares shall at all times be
     exercised by the Security Holders and the Escrow Agent shall take all
     necessary steps from time to time to permit the Security Holders to
     exercise such rights.

7.   The Security Holders hereby agree to and do hereby release and indemnify
     and save harmless the Escrow Agent from and against all claims, suits,
     demands, costs, damages and expenses which may be occasioned by reason of
     the Escrow Agent's compliance in good faith with the terms hereof.

8.   The reasonable costs and expenses of the Escrow Agent and any replacement
     of the Escrow Agent will be paid by the Security Holders. The Issuer shall
     bear no responsibility for the costs and expenses of the Escrow Agent or
     any replacement of the Escrow Agent.

9.   If the Escrow Agent should wish to resign, it shall give at least six
     months' notice to the Security Holders, whereupon the Security Holders may
     by writing jointly agree and appoint another Escrow Agent in its place and
     such appointment shall be binding on the Security Holders, and the new
     Escrow Agent shall assume and be bound by the obligations of the Escrow
     Agent hereunder.
