                  Under this Statement of Work, we will provide Project Services
                  (called "Services") to you on a time basis. The Services we
                  provide are described in the section of this Statement of Work
                  entitled "Our Responsibilities".

1.1      Project Description

                  The Return Assured Strategic Initiatives Project - Phase 1
                  (called the "Project") objective is to determine the
                  functional requirements, IT strategy and high-level technical
                  and application architecture design for the Return Assured
                  Strategic Business Model.

                      design phases of your project;
                  o   provide the required computer hardware and IBM software
                      required by our personnel.

                  With your support and participation, our efforts will be spent
                  in the following areas:

                  1.  Functional Requirements Document

                      Document

                  During the first 5 to 10 days of the project, Return Assured
                  and IBM will work jointly to develop the project plan for this
                  statement of work and the scope description of the above 3
                  documents, including a table of contents.

                  IBM will re-estimate the hours based on the project plan
                  developed during the first 5 to 10 days of the project. IBM
                  will present a change order reflecting any changes to scope,
                  effort, duration, or price.

1.3      Your Responsibilities

                  You agree to:

                  o   provide any decisions, approvals, and information within

                      otherwise in this Statement of Work;

                  o   provide office space and facilities for the Project Team
                      that are of the same standard as you provide for your own
                      personnel;

                      project plan

                      taking appropriate actions to migrate to Year 2000 ready
                      systems, and

                                                                               2

                      necessary for us to fulfill our obligations under this

                      obligations adversely affected by your failure to do this.

                  us for the performance of Services, you warrant that you may

                  any confidential or contractual relationship.

                  2000 (called the "End Date") unless both of us agree to in
                  writing to another schedule.

1.5      Completion

                  The Project Services will be considered complete when the End
                  Date is reached or we supply the estimated number of hours,
                  whichever comes first.

                  You agree to pay a minimum charge of three hours at the
                  applicable rate for Services under this Transaction Document.

                  In addition to our net charges, you agree to reimburse us for
                  all out-of-pocket expenses such as travel, lodging and meals
                  associated with travel, courier charges, long distance
                  telephone charges and other similar expenses. We will obtain
                  your approval before we incur expenses that will result in
                  total reimbursements exceeding fifteen percent of our net
                  charges.

                  A prepayment of $75K required upon contract signing. The
                  actual charges and expenses will be invoiced monthly. The
                  prepayment balance will be deduced from the monthly invoice.
                  Your payment is due on receipt of our invoice.

                  We may change our rates upon three (3) months' prior written
                  notice. If we determine that the Estimated Total will be
                  exceeded, we will advise you in writing. If we change the
                  rates or advise you that the Estimated Total will be exceeded,
                  you may immediately end the Services by giving us written
                  notice.

                                                                               3

1.7      Ending Project Services Early

                  You may end Project Services immediately as described in the
                  section entitled "Charges". Either of us may end the Project
                  Services on one month's written notice to the other.

1.8      Products and Materials

                  Under this Statement of Work we are not responsible for (1)

                  Products"), to correctly process or properly exchange accurate
                  date data. For greater certainty, we will be relieved of our
                  obligations under this Statement of Work due to the inability
                  of Other Products to correctly process or properly exchange
                  date data.

                  Under this Statement of Work we do not make any
                  representations, warranties or conditions with respect to
                  Products.

                  Materials
                  Materials are deliverable items created by us under this
                  Statement of Work.

                  We will deliver one copy of each Material to you. We grant or
                  will have granted to you an irrevocable, non-exclusive,
                  world-wide, paid-up license to use, execute, reproduce,
                  display, perform, distribute (within your Enterprise only)
                  copies of the Materials. We or third parties reserve all
                  right, title and interest (including ownership of copyright)
                  in the Materials.

1.9      No-hire Term

                  Both of us agree that without the other's written consent,
                  neither of us will directly solicit the services of any
                  other's personnel or the other's subcontractor personnel who
                  perform the services or have responsibilities under this
                  Statement of Work:
                  o   As an employee,
                  o   As an independent contractor, or
                  o   Indirectly through a third party,

                  Until one year has elapsed after this Statement of Work ends.

                  This does not prohibit either of us from giving consideration
                  to any application for employment submitted on an unsolicited
                  basis or in response to a general advertisement of employment
                  opportunities.
