                  the Company has made with the Securities Exchange Commission
                  during the past 12 months. The Company represents and warrants
                  to the Subscriber that all such filings are correct and
                  accurate in all material respects and in all material respects
                  state all facts necessary to make such filings not misleading.
                  Subscriber has had the opportunity to discuss the Company's
                  affairs with the Company's officers.

         (b)      The Company and Sub represent and warrant that Sub is wholly
                  owned by the Company.

2.       Sale of Units.

                  principal amount of $1,000 and in the form of Exhibit A (a
                  "Note"), and 500 shares (the "shares") of common stock of the
                  Company ("common stock").

         (b)      Effective upon the Closing (as hereinafter defined), the
                  Company (as to the shares included in the Units) and Sub (as
                  to the Notes included in the Units) hereby sell to Subscriber,
                  and Subscriber hereby purchases from the Company, the number
                  of Units set forth opposite Subscriber's name below.

         (c)      The purchase price of each Unit is $1,000.50, allocable $1,000
                  to the Note and $0.50 to the shares. The purchase price is
                  payable on the date of the Closing by wire transfer directly
                  to the person or entity who at the Closing sells Parcel 11 (as
                  hereinafter defined) to the Company.

         (d)      The Notes to be issued to the Purchasers will upon the Closing
                  be secured by a first mortgage in the form of Exhibit B (the

                  certain proceeds under an instrument in the form of Exhibit C
                  (the "Assignment"), and will be guaranteed by the Company
                  pursuant to a guaranty in the form of Exhibit D. The interest
                  of each Purchaser in the Mortgage and the Assignment will be
                  pro rata with the respective number of Units purchased by it.

         (e)      This Agreement shall terminate and shall be of no further
                  force or effect if the Closing has not occurred by the close

                  the same tenor as this Agreement.

                  Mortgage. The "Closing" means the consummation of the
                  currently contemplated purchase by the Company of Parcel 11.

         (h)      Concurrently with the Closing and as a condition to the
                  obligations of Subscriber hereunder, the Company shall cause
                  Annis, Mitchell, Cockey, Edwards & Roehn to deliver to the
                  Subscriber an opinion of such counsel (which opinion shall be
                  satisfactory to counsel to Subscriber) to the effect that the
                  Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage, the Assignment and the
                  Guaranty are valid. binding and enforceable in accordance with
                  their respective terms, that the Mortgage and the Assignment
                  are superior to and are not subordinate to or on a parity with
                  any other liens or claims then in effect or which may arise
                  thereafter, that the Mortgage and the Assignment have been
                  duly recorded and that the security interests thereunder have
                  been perfected by all requisite UCC and other filings, and
                  that the shares are duly and validly issued, fully paid and
                  non-assessable.

3.       Registration.

         (a)      The Company will include the shares in the first registration
                  statement which is hereafter filed by the Company on Form S-1
                  or S-3 (the "Registration Statement"). The registration shall
                  be accompanied by blue sky clearances in such states as
                  Subscriber may reasonably request.

         (b)      The Company shall pay all expenses of the registration
                  hereunder, other than Subscriber's underwriting discounts.

         (c)      The Company shall supply to Subscriber a reasonable number of
                  copies of all registration materials and prospectuses. The
                  Company and Subscriber shall execute and deliver to each other
                  indemnity agreements which are conventional in registered
                  offerings of this type. The Subscriber shall reasonably
                  cooperate with the Company in the preparation and filing of
                  the Registration Statement and appropriate amendments thereto.

         (d)      Subscriber may transfer a proportionate part of its
                  registration rights to a limited number of permitted
                  transferees of the Units or portions thereof.

4.       Securities Representations.

         (a)      Subscriber represents and warrants that it is purchasing the
                  shares solely for investment solely for its own account and
                  not with a view to or for the resale or distribution thereof
                  except as permitted under the Registration Statement or as
                  otherwise permitted by law.

         (b)      Subscriber understands that it may sell or otherwise transfer
                  the Note or the shares only if such transaction is duly
                  registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under
                  the Registration Statement or otherwise, or if Subscriber
                  shall have received the favorable opinion of counsel to the
                  holder, which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to
                  counsel to the Company, to the effect that such sale or other
                  transfer may be made in the absence of registration under the
                  Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and registration or
                  qualification in every applicable state. The certificates
                  representing the shares will be legended to reflect these
                  restrictions, and stop transfer instructions will apply.
                  Subscriber realizes that the Units are not a liquid
                  investment.

         (c)      Subscriber has not relied upon the advice of a "Purchaser
                  Representative" (as defined in Regulation D of the Securities
                  Act) in evaluating the risks and merits of this investment.
                  Subscriber has the knowledge and experience to evaluate the
                  Company and the risks and merits relating thereto.

         (d)      Subscriber represents and warrants that Subscriber is an
                  "accredited investor" as such term is defined in Rule 501 of
                  Regulation D promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act of
                  1933, as amended, and shall be such on the date any shares are
                  issued to the holder; Subscriber acknowledges that Subscriber
                  is able

                  to bear the economic risk of losing Subscriber's entire
                  investment in the Note and the shares and understands that an
                  investment in the Company involves substantial risks;
                  Subscriber has the power and authority to enter into this
                  agreement, and the execution and delivery of, and performance
                  under this agreement shall not conflict with any rule,
                  regulation, judgment or agreement applicable to the
                  Subscriber; and Subscriber has invested in previous
                  transactions involving restricted securities.

         Company a 10% commission on all amounts paid by Purchasers to the
         Company.

                  Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
