Employment Agreements
 
  Mr. van Voorst Vader is party to an employment agreement with us, which is
scheduled to expire in February 2002, which calls for him to serve as our
chief executive officer at a current salary of R$141,600 per annum, with
provision for annual bonuses based upon future results of operations, in such
amounts, if any, as may be determined from time to time at the discretion of
our board.
 
  Mr. Rego is party to an employment agreement with us, which is scheduled to
expire on February 1, 2002, which calls for him to serve as our vice-
president-finance and chief financial officer at a current salary of R$147,600
per annum. This employment agreement contains a discretionary bonus provision
substantially identical to those contained in Mr. van Voorst Vader's
employment agreement.
 
Change of Control Arrangements
 
  Our employment arrangements with our two executive officers provide that if
we terminate the employment of either of them, other than for cause, following
a change of control, or any such person voluntarily terminates such employment
within 180 days subsequent to a change of control, we shall have to pay to
such person an amount of money equal to 2.9 times his base amount (a term
defined in the Internal Revenue Code, which essentially is such person's
annualized compensation).
 
  Further, all options, warrants and other rights to acquire our securities we
previously granted to any such persons and outstanding upon a change of
control shall fully vest and become immediately exercisable.
 
  Change of control is defined as either (i) the acquisition by a person or
group of persons acting in concert of 20% or more beneficial ownership of our
common stock or (ii) the commencement or announcement of an intention to make
a tender or exchange offer for 30% or more beneficial ownership of our common
stock or (iii) the acquisition by a person or group of persons acting in
concert of 10% or more beneficial ownership of our common stock, when such
person's ownership interest is deemed by our Board to have a material adverse
impact on our business or prospects.
 
  The stockholders' agreement discussed in the section entitled "Election of
Directors", among other matters, affords AIGLAEP and certain of its
transferees the right to designate one member of our board. AIGLAEP also is
afforded the right to nominate additional directors which, under certain
circumstances, may enable AIGLAEP to designate directors constituting a
majority of our board, such as through an expansion of our board and the
filling of vacancies created by the resignation of certain directors serving
at such time, if we do not attain certain operating goals. The stockholders'
agreement requires the other parties to the stockholders' agreement to take
any and all action, including voting their respective shares of common stock,
to cause the nominee(s) designated by AIGLAEP to be elected to our Board.
