CHANGE IN CONTROL

     Effective September 20, 1996, Red River Concepts, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Red River"), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of
September 20, 1996 ("Purchase Agreement") with Mr. Troy Lowrie, the Company's
then President, director and largest shareholder, to purchase 1,300,000 shares
of the Company's Common Stock owned by Mr. Lowrie.  Under the Purchase
Agreement, on October 10, 1996, Mr. Lowrie sold: (i) 200,000 shares to certain
assignees of Red River for $200,000 in cash; and (ii) 800,000 shares to Red
River for an $800,000 promissory note due the earlier of June 1, 1997, or the
effective date of a planned public offering, and secured by the 800,000 shares.
The balance of 300,000 shares were to be sold for $300,000 cash on or before
April 15, 1997.

     On November 5, 1996, James E. Blacketer and Joe R. Love were elected
Directors and the former board members, other than Mr. Lowrie, resigned.  James
E. Blacketer was then appointed President, Dominic W. Grimmett was appointed
Vice President of Operations and Ted W. Strickland was appointed Chief
Financial Officer and Treasurer.  The Purchase Agreement also required Red
River to use its best efforts to arrange a suitable public offering for the
Company.

     Under an agreement dated February 4, 1997, Mr. Lowrie resigned as a
director of the Company and agreed to divest himself of all beneficial
ownership in the Company by May 15, 1997.  As part of the divestiture, Mr.
Lowrie agreed to sell 90,000 shares to a company owned by the adult sons of Mr.
Blacketer for a $75,000 promissory note due May 15, 1998, payable in two
semi-annual installments, bearing interest at eight percent per year, and
secured by the 90,000 shares.  The Company agreed to hold Mr. Lowrie harmless
from loss on certain promissory notes and guarantees made in favor of the
Company and to indemnify him against certain claims until February 4, 1999.
Mr. Strickland became a Director upon Mr. Lowrie's resignation.

     On April 14, 1997, the parties amended the Purchase Agreement so that (i)
Red River purchased 800,000 shares for $100,000 and a $300,000 promissory note
due July 14,1997, bearing interest at the rate of 10% per annum, secured by
550,000 shares and personally guaranteed by James E. Blacketer, Joe R. Love and
C.H. Financial Corporation, a company controlled by Mr. Love; (ii) L A F, an
Oklahoma limited partnership, purchased 137,500 shares for $68,750; (iii) the
John Michael Love Trust purchased 122,500 shares for $61,250; (iv) JEBCO,
L.L.C. purchased 30,000 shares for $15,000; and (v) Mr. Lowrie cancelled the
$800,000 note previously made by Red River.  The Company has agreed to pay a
bank note with a current balance of approximately $278,000 and a note to Mr.
Lowrie with a current balance of approximately $106,000 from the proceeds of a
pending public offering; and, in the event the public offering is not closed by
June 1, 1997, the Company will begin on June 1, 1997 to make payments to the
bank of $10,000 per month and payments to Mr. Lowrie of $3,000 per month and
will pay both notes in full by December 31, 1997.

     The merger was approved by Troy H. Lowrie, the only disinterested member
of the Board of Directors, with Messrs. Blacketer and Love abstaining from
voting.  The Company's Board of Directors received an opinion from American
Business Capital Corporation ("ABCC"), which was engaged to act as the
Company's financial advisor, stating that the merger was fair, from a financial
point of view, to the holders of the Company's Common Stock.  In rendering its
opinion, ABCC considered the historical financial statements of both the
Company and EWI, projections of future income from operations of both entities,
the increase in the market capitalization which might be expected as a result
of the merger, similarity of operations and the fact that cash was not required
for the purchase of EWI.  See Item 11, "Beneficial Ownership Of Directors,
Officers And Certain Shareholders".
