         This Stock Option Agreement is made as of August 22, 2003 by and
between Garrett Miller, an individual currently residing at 130 Jefferson

         WHEREAS, the parties previously entered into a Stock Option Agreement
dated March 24, 2003 with respect to 2,110,639 shares of common stock, $.0001
par value per share, of Valesc (the "Common Stock") owned by Mr. Miller, which

additional 44,141 shares of Common Stock acquired by Mr. Miller;

         WHEREAS, Mr. Miller now owns 21,299 additional shares of Common Stock
and the parties desire to amend and restate the Amended and Restated Stock
Option Agreement to include these shares and to adjust the exercise price of all
of the shares to reflect the additional shares cash value;

         NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

         Garret Miller hereby grants a stock option to Valesc or its designee(s)
to purchase up to 2,176,079 shares of Common Stock of Valesc owned by Mr.

         1.       Purpose of the Option
                  ---------------------

                  ---------------------

         Subject to any adjustment required as set forth in Section 7 below, the
exercise price of shares covered by this Option shall now be as follows to
reflect the adjusted per share exercise price to give effect to the cash value
of (i) $30,889 for the additional shares on June 25, 2003, (ii) $14,909 for the
additional shares on August 22, 2003, and (iii) the original exercise price of

<PAGE>

         3.       Acceptance of Option
                  --------------------

         Valesc's acceptance of this Option indicates its acceptance of the
terms set forth herein. It imposes no obligation upon Valesc or its designee(s)
to purchase any or all of the shares subject to the Option, which may arise only
upon exercise of the Option in the manner set forth in Section 5 hereof. The
purchaser acknowledges that the stock certificates representing any of the
shares purchased from Mr. Miller may have a restricted legend and their resale
will be subject to the provisions of the federal securities laws and rules and
regulations published by the SEC.

         4.       When Option May Be Exercised
                  ----------------------------

         This Option may be exercised in full or in part at any time and from
time to time until March 31, 2008 (the "Expiration Date") and may not be
exercised for less than 10,000 shares at any one time.

         5.       How Option May Be Exercised
                  ---------------------------

         This Option or any portion thereof is exercisable by a written notice
signed by Valesc or its designee(s) and delivered to the Escrow Agent as
specified in the Amended and Restated Escrow Agreement entered into by Mr.
Miller and Valesc, attached as Exhibit A hereto, signifying Valesc's or its
designee's election to exercise the Option. The notice must state the number of
shares of Common Stock as to which the Option is being exercised and must be
accompanied by payment for the full purchase price of the shares being
purchased. Payment shall be in cash or check payable to the order of the Escrow
Agent on behalf of Garrett Miller.

         6.       Non-Transferability of Option
                  -----------------------------

         This Option shall not be transferrable, except that it may be exercised
by specified designees of Valesc.

         7.       Adjustments to Option Price and Shares
                  --------------------------------------

         If at any time after the date of grant of this Option, Valesc shall, by
stock dividend, split- up, combination, reclassification, exchange, merger,
consolidation or otherwise, change its shares of Common Stock into a different
number or kind or class of shares or other securities or property, then the
number of shares covered by this Option, and the price of each such share shall
be proportionately adjusted for any such change. If there is any dispute as to
the proper adjustment, so long as the Board of Directors' determination is not
unreasonable, such determination shall be conclusive. Any fraction of a share
resulting from any adjustment shall be eliminated.

                                       -2-

         8.       Reservation of Shares
                  ---------------------

         During the period from the date hereof until March 31, 2006, Mr. Miller
shall reserve and keep available such number of shares of Common Stock as will
be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this Option. In the event that Mr.
Miller does not have shares available prior to March 31, 2006 to satisfy the
exercise of an option, then Mr. Miller shall have ten (10) business days to
acquire those shares and fifteen (15) business days to deliver those shares to
the Company. To the extent that Mr. Miller cannot deliver all of the required
shares or elects not to, he shall pay Valesc 70% of the difference between the
aggregate exercise price and the aggregate fair market value of the shares
subject to the exercise on the date of that exercise. Subsequent to March 31,
2006, Mr. Miller will not be under any obligation to reserve shares to satisfy
the requirements of the Option. However, to the extent he still owns any shares
after July 1, 2006, he shall be obligated to deliver any of those shares to the
extent the Company elects to exercise its right to purchase pursuant to the
Option.

                             SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

         This Subscription Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and entered into
as of June 30, 2003 by and between Valesc Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), Jeremy Kraus, an individual residing at 2605 Woods Lane, Garland, TX
75044 (the "Subscriber").

         WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue to the Subscriber, and the
Subscriber desires to acquire from the Company, the Company's common stock and
attached option on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

         1.    Agreement to Purchase and Sell the Common Stock and Attached
Stock Options. Pursuant to resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the
Company dated June 23, 2003 the Company agreed to issue to the Subscriber, and
the Subscriber agrees to accept from the Company, 45,272 shares of its common
stock (the "Securities"), $.0001 par value per share (the "Shares"), in
cancellation of $31,690.50 in unpaid salary (the "Purchase Price").

         2.    Representations, Warranties and Certain Covenants of Subscriber.
The Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

    (a)  Disclosure of Risks. Subscriber, as an officer and director, is aware
         that the Company's financial condition is not stable: (i) the Company
         has received a "going concern" opinion from its independent auditor
         with respect to its last fiscal year and the Company may receive a
         subsequent "going concern" opinion to be issued in the Company's next
         audited financial statements; (ii) there is no assurance that the
         Company will be able to successfully commercialize any services or
         products thereby resulting in profits; and (iii) an investment in the
         Company involves a high degree of risk and should not be made unless
         the Subscriber is prepared to, and can afford to, lose the entire
         investment.

    (b)  Investment Experience and Access to Information. Subscriber (i) has
         sufficient knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and
         finance to capably evaluate information concerning an investment in the
         Company, (ii) has had an opportunity to ask detailed questions and
         receive satisfactory answers from other representatives of the Company,
         (iii) has had adequate opportunity to request and review any and all
         documents and other information, including the Company's publicly
         available filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, relevant
         to Subscriber's consideration of investment in the Company, (iv) has
         otherwise obtained sufficient information from the Company to evaluate
         the merits and risks of an investment in the Company; (v) has
         independently considered and discussed such prospective investment with
         the Subscriber's business, legal, tax and financial advisers as to the
         suitability of such investment with respect to the Subscriber's
         particular financial situation, and (vi) on the basis of the foregoing,
         the Subscriber has determined that investment in the Securities is a
         suitable investment.

    (c)  Dilution and Additional Indebtedness. Subscriber acknowledges that (i)
         the Company may make additional offerings of equity securities in the
         future which may cause Subscriber and other stockholders to experience
         dilution of their respective percentage

<PAGE>

         ownership of the Company, and any such securities subsequently offered
         may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the
         holders of the Securities, (ii) the Company may determine that it is
         necessary to incur additional indebtedness to finance its operations,
         which could restrict the Company's operations, and (iii) there can be
         no assurance that additional equity or debt financing will not be
         required, and if so required, that it will be available on terms
         favorable to the Company, if at all.

    (d)  Restricted Securities. Subscriber understands that the Securities are
         characterized as "restricted securities" under the Securities Act of
         1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), inasmuch as they are being
         acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public
         offering and that under the Securities Act and applicable regulations
         thereunder the Securities may be resold without registration under the
         Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this
         connection, the Subscriber represents that it is familiar with Rule
         144, as presently in effect, promulgated by the SEC under the
         Securities Act and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby
         and by the Securities Act. The Subscriber understands that the Company
         is under no obligation to register any of the Securities sold
         hereunder. The Subscriber understands that no public market now exists
         for the Securities and that it is uncertain whether a public market
         will ever exist for the Securities.

    (e)  Purchase for Own Account. The Securities to be granted to the
         Subscriber hereunder will be acquired for investment for the view to
         the public resale or distribution thereof, and the Subscriber has no
         present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or
         otherwise distributing the same.

    (f)  Accredited Investor Status. Subscriber is an "accredited investor"
         within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities
         Act.

    (g)  Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the
         representations set forth above, the Subscriber further agrees not to
         make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities, except:

               (i) pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act
         covering such disposition; or

               (ii) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the
         Securities Act, including, without limitation, Rule 144, Rule 144A or
         Regulation S thereunder.

    (h)  Legend. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the
         Securities will bear the legend set forth below:

                  THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE UNITED
                  STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES
                  COMMISSION OF ANY STATE, OR UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
                  AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"). THESE SECURITIES ARE RESTRICTED AND
                  MAY NOT BE OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS
                  PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
                  STATEMENT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS.

                                       2
<PAGE>

         The legend set forth above shall be removed by the Company from any
         stock certificate evidencing common stock upon delivery to the Company
         of an opinion by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that a
         registration statement under applicable securities laws is at that time
         in effect with respect to the legended security or that such security
         can be freely transferred in a public sale without such a registration
         statement being in effect and that such transfer will not jeopardize
         the exemption or exemptions from registration pursuant to which the
         Company issued the common stock.

    (i)  No Reliance on Oral Statements. Subscriber, in purchasing the
         Securities, is not relying on any oral representations, promises or
         statements made by the Company, or any officer, director, employee,
         agent or attorney of the Company.

    (j)  Transferee Undertaking. In connection with any disposition of all or
         any portion of the Securities permitted under this Agreement, the
         Subscriber shall obtain an undertaking from each offeree or purchaser
         of the Securities pursuant to which the offeree or purchaser shall
         represent and warrant the following:

                  (i) purchaser understands that the Securities have not been
                  registered under the Securities Act and that, if in the future
                  it decides to offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer such
                  Securities, such Securities may be offered, sold, pledged or
                  otherwise transferred only (A) to a person whom the seller
                  reasonably believes is a qualified institutional buyer in a
                  transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (B) in an
                  offshore transaction pursuant to and in compliance with
                  Regulation S, (C) pursuant to an exemption from registration
                  under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144, if available,
                  or (D) pursuant to a registration statement under the
                  Securities Act covering such disposition, in all cases in
                  accordance with all applicable securities laws of any state of
                  the United States.

                  (ii) purchaser understands that the Securities will contain a
                  legend to the following effect unless the Company determines
                  such legend is not necessary under applicable laws:

                  "THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S.
                  SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND SUCH SECURITIES MAY
                  NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT
                  (1) TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A
                  QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A
                  UNDER SUCH ACT IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF
                  RULE 144A, (2) IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION PURSUANT TO
                  REGULATION S UNDER SUCH ACT, OR (3) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION
                  FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144, IF
                  AVAILABLE, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE
                  SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES."

                  (iii) If the offeree or transferee is a qualified
                  institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A of the Securities
                  Act, that it is aware that the sale to it is being made in
                  reliance on Rule 144A and it is acquiring the Securities for
                  its own account or for the account of a qualified
                  institutional buyer.

Valesc Inc.
2300 Coit Road, Suite 300B
Plano, TX 75075

Dear Sirs:

         The undersigned hereby accepts 45,272 shares of Valesc Inc. ("Valesc"),
$.0001 par value per share common stock (the "Shares"), pursuant to a
Subscription Agreement dated the date hereof (the "Subscription Agreement"), and
Valesc hereby delivers the Shares pursuant to the Subscription Agreement (the
"Securities").

         In connection with the foregoing, the undersigned represents that:

         (i)   the Securities are being purchased for investment, not for resale
or distribution and not for the purpose of effecting or causing to be effected,
a public offering of any of the Securities;

         (ii)  the Securities will not be sold, transferred, assigned or
disposed of, except in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
promulgated thereunder; and

         (iii) the Securities are being purchased for the sole account of the
undersigned and no other understanding exists with regard to the disposition,
sale, transfer or assignment of the Securities other than that set forth herein.

         The undersigned has been advised and understands that it is the view of
the SEC that the foregoing investment representation would be inaccurate if it
merely meant that the present intention of the undersigned was to hold the
Securities for the long term capital gains period of the tax statutes, or for a
deferred sale, or for a market rise, or for sale if the market declines, or for
sale after a fixed period in the future or for sale only if the issuer fails to
operate profitably. The undersigned further understands that, in the view of the
SEC, a change in the market value of Valesc's common stock, a change in the
condition of Valesc, a change in the conditions within the industry in which
Valesc is engaged or, should the Securities be pledged as security for a loan,
foreclosure or threatened foreclosure of such a loan, would not be such a change
in the circumstances as to justify sale of the Securities. The undersigned
understands that it is the view of the SEC that if there is an intention, at the
time the Securities are acquired, to resell them to the public after the passing
of some more or less definitive time period, the Securities were not truly
acquired for investment. The undersigned further understands that the foregoing
is not

                                       8

<PAGE>

intended to be a complete listing of the views held by the SEC relating to the
foregoing investment representation.

         The undersigned acknowledges it has been advised that the Securities
have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and that
none of the Securities may be sold, transferred, assigned or disposed of, except
in accordance with such Act and the Rules and Regulations of the SEC promulgated
thereunder. The undersigned hereby consents that the face of the Securities to
be issued and delivered to it shall contain a restrictive legend as set forth in
the Subscription Agreement.

         The undersigned understands that Valesc is in its initial developmental
stage and that the Securities being purchased involve a high degree of risk. It
is the best judgment of the undersigned that the Securities being purchased
hereby are securities of the kind which the undersigned wishes to purchase and
hold for investment and that the nature and amount of the Securities being
acquired are consistent with the investment program of the undersigned. The
undersigned represents and warrants that the present and anticipated financial
position of the undersigned permits the undersigned to hold the Securities for
investment, as aforesaid.

         The undersigned hereby acknowledges that neither Valesc nor any persons
or parties associated with Valesc has made any representation or warranties of
any kind, nature or description in connection with the sale or offer of the
Securities other than those set forth in the Subscription Agreement. The
undersigned is also relying on its investigation of Valesc and its prospects and
represents that Valesc has answered all its questions and made available all
information requested.

                                          Very truly yours,

                                          ----------------------------------
