the terms of such option, warrant or convertible security, become an option,
warrant or convertible security exercisable or convertible into shares of the
Issuer Common Stock at the same exercise or conversion price.

not affect or change the number of shares of the Issuer's capital stock
authorized in the Issuer's Certificate of Incorporation and, except pursuant to
the Reverse Split or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, will not affect or
change the shares of Issuer Common Stock which are outstanding as of the date of

additional shares of its capital stock, or rights to purchase its capital stock,
prior to the Merger, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which the

provided in this Agreement, the Issuer will have no other class of capital stock
outstanding immediately prior to the Merger.

             g) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. The completion of the Merger will

outstanding and the Merger Sub will remain a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Issuer.

             REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ISSUER AND MERGER SUB

         Merger Sub and the Issuer jointly and severally represent and warrant
to the Company as follows:

         6.1 Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, have been duly authorized and approved by the requisite Boards of
Directors of Merger Sub and the Issuer. Merger Sub and the Issuer have all
necessary corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement, to perform
their obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby. The Issuer, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, has duly adopted this
Agreement as required by the Florida BCA. The approval of the Issuer's
stockholders is not required under Florida law in order for the Issuer to enter
into this Agreement and to perform all of its obligations hereunder. This
Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by, and is the valid and binding
obligation of, Merger Sub and the Issuer enforceable in accordance with its
terms, except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights or remedies and by general principles of equity (whether such
enforcement is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity). Other than the
filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware, the amendment of the Issuer's Articles of Incorporation to effect the
Reverse Split and the designation of the Issuer's Preferred Stock, no consent or
authorization of any third party is required to be obtained, and no filing with
any government body is required to be made, in order to consummation the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         6.2 Organization. Each of Merger Sub and the Issuer is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their
respective states of organization, has the corporate power and authority to own
or lease its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now being
conducted and is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in each
jurisdiction where the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse
effect on it. The copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of
Merger Sub and the Issuer heretofore delivered to the Company are true and
correct.

         6.3 Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the authorized capital stock
of the Issuer consists of 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value
per share, of which 4,652,813 shares are issued and outstanding as of the date
of this Agreement, and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value per
share, of which no shares are outstanding as of the date of this Agreement;
provided, however, that the Issuer will designate prior to the Closing Date
1,000 shares of its Preferred Stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and
Issuer Preferred Stock will be issued in accordance with Article III. As of the
date of this Agreement, there are outstanding options to purchase an aggregate
of 55,000 shares of Issuer Common Stock. Except for such options, immediately
prior to the Closing Date, there will be outstanding no options, warrants,
convertible securities, or other rights to subscribe for, to purchase, or
contracts or other obligations to issue or grant any rights to acquire, any

                                       11

<PAGE>


equity securities of the Issuer, or to restructure or recapitalize the Issuer.
There are no outstanding contracts of the Issuer to repurchase, redeem or
otherwise acquire any equity securities of the Issuer. All outstanding equity
securities of the Issuer are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable, were issued in conformity with applicable securities laws and
are not subject to any preemptive rights. Except for the Merger Sub, the Issuer
has no Subsidiaries. Issuer shall not issue any additional shares of capital
stock prior to the Merger. Giving effect to the Reverse Split and not taking
into account the additional shares which will result from rounding up to the
nearest whole the fractional shares which will result from the Reverse Split,
the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which the Issuer will have
outstanding immediately prior to the Merger (including stock options to purchase
44,020 shares) will be 3,768,000 shares and the Issuer will have no other class
of capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger.

         6.4 No Conflict or Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or
performance of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, nor compliance by the Merger Sub and Issuer with any of the
provisions hereof, will result in (a) a violation of or a conflict with any
provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of Merger Sub or
Issuer, (b) a breach of, or a default under, any term or provision of any
Contract, Encumbrance, or Permit, to which Merger Sub or Issuer is a party or by
which its assets are bound, or (c) a violation by Merger Sub or Issuer of any
statute, rule, regulation, ordinance, code, order, judgment, ruling, writ,
injunction, decree or award.

         6.5 No Brokers. Neither Merger Sub nor Issuer or any of their officers,
directors, employees, shareholders or affiliates has employed or made any
Contract with any Person which obligates the Company or the Stockholders or any
of their respective affiliates to pay any finder's fee, brokerage fees or
commission or similar payment in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby.

         6.6 Status of Issuer Shares. The Issuer Shares issued and delivered

as set forth in the SEC Filings, the Issuer has no liabilities, contingent or
otherwise, other than (i) non-material liabilities incurred in the ordinary
course of business subsequent to June 30, 2005, and (ii) obligations under
contracts and commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business and not
required, under generally accepted accounting principles, to be reflected in

the financial condition or operating results of the Issuer.

         6.10 Absence of Certain Changes. Since June 30, 2005, there has been no
material adverse change and no material adverse development in the assets,
liabilities, business, properties, operations, financial condition or results of

their capacity as such. There are no facts which, if known by a potential
claimant or governmental authority, could give rise to a claim or proceeding
unfavorable to the Issuer or the Merger Sub.
