         LICENSE.

                  USISL MARKS. Franchisor hereby grants Franchisee, during
the term of this Franchise Agreement and in accordance with the guidelines
described below, the non-exclusive right and license to use, reproduce and
display the USISL Marks in the following Franchise related activities: (i)
team uniforms; (ii) game programs; (iii) individual team advertising and
other individual team promotional materials and activities; and (iv) such
other activities as the Franchisor may require or approve in advance in
writing. Franchisee shall submit all proposed use, other than game promotion,
advertising or tickets, of the USISL Marks to Franchisor in advance for
approval which may not be unreasonably withheld. If Franchisor does not
object to the proposed use within 10 business days of receipt, Franchisor
shall be deemed to approve such use. Franchisee shall not transfer or
sublicense this license without the advance written approval of Franchisor.
Franchisee shall not use the USISL Marks or the Team Marks in combination
with the team marks of other franchisees, it being agreed that this shall be
the sole domain of Franchisor and its designees.

         Franchisee's use of the USISL Marks shall be of a quality
appropriate to be associated with the USISL and the sport of soccer, shall be
non-disparaging, and shall be in accordance with guidelines Franchisor may
issue from time to time to ensure a quality appropriate for the USISL and its
sponsors. Franchisee shall not allow its use of the USISL Marks to be
associated with any illegal activity or any activity that may disparage
Franchisor or the sport of soccer.

         Franchisee acknowledges that Franchisor may, from time to time and
in its sole discretion, add to, modify or discontinue use of any or all of
the current USISL Marks. Franchisor shall inform Franchisee of such changes
in the USISL Marks in writing, and, after a reasonable time period to
transition the marks, Franchisee agrees to operate under the revised USISL
Marks.

         Franchisee shall not use the term "USISL" or any USISL Mark in its
corporate name, commonly known name, or team name without Franchisor's prior
written approval, nor in any way that could cause Franchisee to be confused
with Franchisor.

                  TEAM MARKS. Franchisee's current Team Marks, if any, are
shown on Exhibit E hereto. Franchisee shall submit all proposed revisions or
additions to the Team Marks to Franchisor for advance approval, which shall
be granted unless Franchisor objects to the proposed revisions or additions
for reasons of duplication in the sport of soccer or in sporting activities
generally, appropriateness for the USISL, failure to be of professional
graphic design quality and any other reasonable factors Franchisor deems
relevant. If Franchisor fails to inform Franchisee of its denial of approval
of a proposed Team Mark within 30 days of delivery to Franchisor of a request
for approval by Franchisee and Franchisee's submission of all information
requested by Franchisor, the proposed Team Mark shall be deemed approved.
Franchisor assumes no responsibility, and in no way shall be liable, for
Franchisee's compliance with trademark law in its selection of Team Marks or
for the effectiveness or desirability of such Team Marks. Franchisor may,
from time to time, develop reasonable guidelines for the implementation of
new or revised Team Marks in order to allow for the completion of any
merchandising programs utilizing the previous Team Marks. Franchisee agrees
to comply with all such reasonable guidelines established by Franchisor.

         Franchisee shall be solely responsible for complying with all
trademark laws in its selection and use of Team Marks. If Franchisee has a
Franchise in the A-League or D3 Pro League, Franchisee shall apply for and
diligently pursue the registration of all Team Marks in the United States at
Franchisee's own cost and expense. Franchisee shall provide Franchisor proof
of its application to register the Team Marks within 30 days after their
approval by Franchisor. If Franchisee fails to register its Team Marks and
submit proof of its application to

<PAGE>

Franchisor, Franchisor, in its discretion, may apply to register the Team
Marks on behalf of Franchisee and deduct any costs associated with such
application from Franchisee's performance bond described in Section 4.1(c).

         Franchisee acknowledges and agrees that Franchisor shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to register the Team Marks in foreign
countries at Franchisor's own cost and expense. If Franchisor chooses to
register the Team Marks in any foreign countries, Franchisee shall cooperate
with such registration efforts and provide Franchisor with any assistance
Franchisor reasonably requests, including, without limitation, executing such
agreements as Franchisor determines to be reasonably necessary to effectuate
the purpose of this Section 2.2(b).

         Franchisor and Sponsors shall have the right and a license to use
all Team Marks in its USISL related activities, merchandise and other
materials without charge, and Franchisee shall execute registered user
agreements for the Team Marks in favor of Franchisor or Sponsors upon
Franchisor's request. Franchisor's and Sponsor's use of the Team Marks shall
be of a quality appropriate to be associated with the USISL and the sport of
soccer and shall be non-disparaging. Franchisor and Sponsors shall not allow
their use of the Team Marks to be associated with any illegal activity or any
activity that may disparage Franchisee or the sport of soccer.

                  REQUIRED USE OF USISL MARKS. Franchisee acknowledges and
agrees that Franchisor may, from time to time, require Franchisee to display
the USISL Marks and the trademarks, logos and names of Sponsors in
promotional materials and merchandise, including, without limitation, team
uniforms, game programs, and signage. Franchisee shall comply with all such
requirements at its own cost and expense; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Franchisor
shall be responsible for all signage costs except cost of installation,
storage and maintenance.

                  LIMITATIONS ON USE OF MARKS. Franchisee shall not use the
USISL Marks or the Team Marks in combination with the marks or logos of other
franchisees in the USISL as this shall be the sole domain of Franchisor and
its Sponsors. The above prohibition does not apply to logo combinations used
to promote USISL games. Franchisee shall not pledge or encumber its right to
use the USISL Marks, nor shall Franchisee pledge or encumber any interest in
the Team Marks, to any third party.

                  COOPERATION IN ENFORCEMENT. Franchisor and Franchisee agree
to cooperate with each other in the enforcement of their rights to the USISL
Marks or Team Marks, as appropriate. In the event that Franchisor determines
that a Team Mark is being infringed, Franchisor shall notify Franchisee of
such suspected infringement, and shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to pursue all legal remedies in the name of Franchisee and retain
any proceeds of such actions. Franchisee shall notify Franchisor of any
suspected infringement of the USISL Marks or the marks of other USISL teams.

         REVENUE SHARING. Franchisor may, from time to time, grant
sub-licenses to use and display the Team Marks in connection with League
based programs for the sale, advertisement or promotion of the USISL, the
USISL teams, or any non-soccer-related products, services or events. In such
event, Franchisor shall divide the profits arising from such program with the
franchise owners whose Team Marks were utilized in the program as follows:
Franchisor shall retain seventy-five percent (75%) of the first $5,000 in
profits from such program and divide the remaining twenty-five percent (25%)
among the franchise owners whose Team Marks are featured in such programs;
Franchisor shall retain fifty percent (50%) of the profits between $5,000 and
$100,000 and divide the remaining fifty percent (50%) among the franchise
owners whose Team Marks are used; Franchisor shall retain twenty-five percent
(25%) of the profits between $100,000 and $500,000 and divide the remaining
seventy-five percent (75%) among the franchise owners whose Team Marks are
used; and for all profits in excess of $500,000 Franchisor shall retain
fifteen percent (15%) and divide the remaining eighty-five percent (85%)
among the franchise owners whose Team Marks are utilized in such program.
This allocation of profits from promotional programs utilizing the Team Marks
shall be determined and allocated on a program by program basis.

         For purposes of this Section 2.3, the term "profits" shall mean the
income derived from the appropriate promotion LESS any direct costs
associated with such promotion. Franchisor does not guarantee that it will
engage in

<PAGE>

league-wide promotions or that if it undertakes such promotions that profits
will be available or that Franchisee will have the opportunity to participate
in such promotions.

         Opportunities to participate in revenue sharing programs may not be
available to all Leagues. Franchisor makes no assurances that any revenue
sharing programs will generate profits.

contained in Section 4.1(b), Franchisor may change the amount of fees to be
paid by all owners of franchises in any League if such change is necessary in
Franchisor's reasonable judgment to reflect changes in costs of operation,
changes in applicable prices or other fees, to assure fair application of
USISL policies and procedures, or other controlling market factors. All
charges in fees by Franchisor shall apply to future fees only. Franchisor may
waive, suspend, or defer any fees required to be paid by franchise owners or
a class of owners, in whole or in part, in its discretion at any time and in
any instance or under any circumstances.

         COMPLIANCE. Franchisee acknowledges that its management of the

for the USISL or Leagues. Sponsors may be engaged for items, products or
services used by all franchises in the USISL or a League, and, in such event,
Franchisee shall use the items or products provided by such Sponsor in its
USISL games during the duration of the sponsorship. Franchisee shall comply
with all reasonable requirements established by Franchisor regarding
identifying and recognizing Sponsors at USISL games and in promotional
materials and using Team Marks and player likenesses in Sponsors' promotional
materials. A list of current Sponsors, the requirements the Sponsorship
imposes on Franchisee and the duration of the Sponsorship is contained on
Exhibit H.

                  TEAM SPONSORSHIPS. Franchisee may enter into a team
sponsorship relationship with any entity subject to the terms of this
Agreement. If Franchisee is party to any team sponsorship agreements prior to
the effective date of this Agreement, such sponsorship agreements and team
sponsors are listed on Exhibit I hereto, and Franchisee shall not be subject
to the following requirements for such agreements.

                           (i)      Reserved Products. In order to encourage
league or League-wide sponsorships, Franchisee agrees not to enter into team
sponsorships after the date of this Agreement for soccer balls and team
sponsorships that would conflict with potential USISL sponsorships for
products identified by Franchisor after consultation with the Owners
Committee and the Marketing/Public Relations Committee and listed in a notice
to Franchisee by July 1 of each year (the "Reserved Products"). If the
Franchisor does not enter into a league or League-wide sponsorship for any of
the Reserved Products by January 1, Franchisor shall release such products
and individual teams, including Franchisee, shall be entitled to enter into
sponsorship agreements for such products for that year, subject to the
provisions of this Section 4.7(b).

                           Objections. Franchisee shall notify Franchisor of
any proposed team sponsorships before such sponsorships take effect.
Franchisor shall have ten (10) days to object to any proposed team
sponsorship on the basis of a significant potential conflict with a Reserved
Products category or if Franchisor, in its discretion, determines that the
proposed sponsorship is contrary to the best moral interest or image of the
USISL. If Franchisor does not notify Franchisee of its objection to a
proposed team sponsorship within such time period, Franchisee shall be
entitled to enter into the sponsorship agreement, provided Franchisee
complies with the right of first offer and right of first refusal described
below.

                           Right of First Offer and Right of First Refusal.
As long as Umbro International, Inc., or its affiliates ("UMBRO"), remains a
Sponsor, prior to entering into negotiations with any other entity for
sponsorship of the Franchise, Franchisee shall first offer UMBRO the
opportunity to enter into sponsorship negotiations with Franchisee. Prior to
entering into any sponsorship agreement with another entity, Franchisee shall
first offer the same sponsorship opportunities, subject to the same terms, to
UMBRO. If UMBRO fails to accept the sponsorship with such terms within thirty
days of receipt of the offer from Franchisee, Franchisee may enter into the
sponsorship agreement with the other entity.

                  UMBRO SPONSORSHIP. Franchisee acknowledges that UMBRO is a
Sponsor as provided in Exhibit H hereto, and that UMBRO may in the future
renew, supplement or extend its sponsorship of Franchisor and may in its
discretion become an equity owner of Franchisor. Franchisee agrees that the
UMBRO sponsorship shall not be subject to the revenue sharing provisions
contained in Section 2.3 of this Agreement. Franchisee acknowledges that
UMBRO is an affiliate of Franchisor, Franchisor and UMBRO may renew,
supplement or extend UMBRO's sponsorship of Franchisor and that any such
transaction will not be between fully independent parties.

<PAGE>

Franchisee will not be precluded from entering into sponsorship agreements
with apparel companies provided that Franchisee complies with the terms of
this Agreement. However, Franchisor has agreed as a condition of the UMBRO
sponsorship that it will not enter into league or League-wide sponsorships
with competitors of UMBRO. There is no guarantee that UMBRO will renew,
supplement or extend its sponsorship of Franchisor. In the event UMBRO enters
into a team sponsorship agreement with Franchisee, such agreement shall be
separate and distinct from UMBRO's sponsorship of Franchisor.

home games to Franchisor the day of the game in accordance with the policies
established by Franchisor.

         MEETINGS. Franchisee or its designees shall attend the annual
general meeting and winter business meetings for the USISL. Franchisor shall
inform Franchisee of the date for such meetings at least sixty (60) days in
advance. Franchisor shall set the agenda for such meetings in its discretion
and may include seminars and/or workshops regarding team operations.

FRANCHISE OPERATIONS

         GAME OFFICIALS. All game officials shall be registered in good
standing with USSF or the USASA, as appropriate. Game officials for each game
are assigned by the USSF, with the assistance of Franchisor. There shall be a
minimum of one (1) referee, two (2) assistant referees and a fourth official
for each game. Game officials shall be paid in accordance with USISL Rules
and USSF regulations by the home team. Franchisee and its players shall abide
by all decisions of game officials during games.

         RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN TEAMS. Franchisee (and any entity holding a
fifty percent (50%) or greater ownership interest in Franchisee) shall not
hold any direct or indirect interest of fifty percent (50%) or more or any
percentage that would give Franchisee controlling interest in any other
franchise or team in Franchisee's League in the USISL except temporarily, as
the result of promotion or relegation as provided in Section 5.13. Franchisee
shall not make or accept any gifts, loans, financial guarantees or other
financial favors to or from any other franchise owner in the USISL (or such
owner's affiliates), any game official or any player for another team in
Franchisee's League in the USISL, other than gifts of nominal value.

         TERRITORY. Exhibit B lists the Territory where the Franchise is
based and where its Stadium for home games shall be located. Franchisee
acknowledges that it will be required to obtain use of a Stadium meeting the
requirements of Section 4.4 and the current Minimum Standards required by
Franchisor in the Territory. Franchisor shall grant only one (1) franchise in
the Territory to a team in either the A-League or D3 Pro League and shall not
grant a franchise to a PDSL team if a team in the A-League or D3 Pro League
is already existing in the Territory. If Franchisee is in the PDSL,
Franchisor shall not grant more than one (1) franchise in the PDSL in the
Territory. If Franchisee is in the PDSL and Franchisor desires to establish a
franchisee in the A-League or D3 Pro League in the Territory, Franchisor
shall first offer Franchisee the opportunity to change to such other League
in accordance with the terms of Section 5.10. If Franchisee does not accept
this opportunity within 90 days, Franchisor shall have the right to offer a
franchise in the Territory in either the A-League or D3 Pro League in its
discretion. One (1) franchise in the W-League and Indoor League may be
granted for territories that contain a franchise in the A-League, D3 Pro
League or PDSL. Except as provided herein, and to the maximum extent
permitted by law, Franchisee shall be the exclusive holder of a franchise in
its League in the Territory.

         Franchisee shall not host games or conduct soccer camps or clinics
outside of the Territory without the written consent of the Franchisor and
the written consent of any owner of a franchise in the geographic area in
question. No other owner of a franchise in the USISL, other than a W-League
or Indoor team owner, shall host games or conduct soccer camps or clinics in
the Territory without Franchisee's consent. Any dispute between owners of
franchises regarding exclusive geographic territory shall be decided by
Franchisor.

<PAGE>

         Franchisee acknowledges and agrees that it has no right to change
the Territory where the Franchise is located. If Franchisee desires to
relocate, Franchisor may approve such request upon Franchisee's written
application. Such application must satisfy certain criteria to be established
by Franchisor from time to time (including, without limitation, proximity to
other USISL teams and potential impact on market). If Franchisee is permitted
to relocate, it must pay a relocation fee to any team(s) affected by this
relocation as determined by Franchisor. Franchisor may require the Franchisee
seeking to relocate to pay an additional relocation fee to be determined by
Franchisor.

         CHANGE IN TEAM MARKS. Once approved by Franchisor, Franchisee shall
not change its Team Marks without Franchisor's written consent, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld. Franchisee acknowledges and agrees not to
change or alter the Team Marks in any way during the Season. Franchisee must
obtain Franchisor's written consent to any new proposed marks in accordance
with the terms of Section 2.2(b). Franchisor may, from time to time, develop
reasonable guidelines for the implementation of new or revised Team Marks in
order to allow for the completion of any merchandising programs utilizing the
previous Team Marks. Franchisee agrees to comply with all such reasonable
guidelines established by Franchisor.

         OWNERSHIP OF FRANCHISE. If Franchisee is a corporation, partnership,
limited liability company or other entity, the primary purpose of Franchisee
at all times shall be the operation of a soccer team. Franchisee shall
maintain its principal place of business in the Territory.

         LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER. In order to ensure that franchise owners
are committed to the sport of soccer and will enhance the image of the sport
of soccer and of the USISL, Franchisee shall not transfer the Franchise to
anyone other than an immediate family member or affiliate without the advance
written consent of Franchisor, which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. If Franchisee is other than an individual, the ownership
of 50% or more of Franchisee shall not be transferred to anyone other than an
immediate family member of the current owner or an affiliate, and ownership
interests in the Franchise shall not be sold to the public, without the
advance written consent of Franchisor. Any attempted transfer in violation of
the foregoing shall be ineffective and may, in Franchisor's discretion,
result in a termination of the Franchise. For purposes of this Section 5.6,
"immediate family member" shall mean a spouse, child, parent, or sibling and
"affiliate" shall mean an entity that owns or controls at least fifty percent
(50%) of Franchisee.

         TERMINATION OF FRANCHISE. A-League Franchisees may terminate this
Agreement at the end of any USISL Season by notifying Franchisor that it will
not be participating in the next year's Season by July 1 of the previous
year. All other Franchisees shall notify Franchisor of their intent to not
participate in the next USISL Season by September 1 of the previous year.
Franchisor may terminate this Agreement at any time if Franchisee attempts to
transfer the Franchise in violation of Section 5.6 above, if Franchisee
violates any of the performance bond obligations described in Section 4.1(c)
above, or if Franchisor, in its good business judgment determines that
Franchisee's continued participation in the USISL will be significantly
detrimental to the USISL, including, without limitation, if Franchisor
receives reasonably convincing evidence that Franchisee has attempted to fix
game results or bribe game officials or if Franchisee has continually failed
to adhere to the Minimum Standards.

         In addition, Franchisor may terminate this Agreement in the event
that Franchisee's League contains less than twelve (12) teams, in which case
Franchisor shall terminate all franchises in such League and cease operating
such League. Franchisor also may terminate this Agreement and all franchises
in Franchisee's League if the League ceases to be recognized by the USSF or
USASA, as appropriate. Franchisor also may terminate this Agreement and all
franchises in Franchisee's League if such League or the USISL incurs
substantial and continuing losses as determined by Franchisor in its
reasonable discretion. Upon a termination of this Franchise Agreement
pursuant to the terms of this paragraph on or before December 31, 1998,
Franchisor shall refund Franchisee any Franchise Fee actually paid by
Franchisee. Franchisee shall not be entitled to any other refunds after such
termination. Franchisee shall not be entitled to any refund upon the
termination of this Agreement after such date. Franchisor may also terminate
this Agreement upon Franchisee's failure to provide a performance bond or
replace a performance bond that has been forfeited pursuant to Section 4.1(c)
herein and not replaced within thirty (30) days.

<PAGE>

         Except as specifically provided above, Franchisee shall not be
entitled to any refund of the Franchise Fee or any participation fees upon
termination of this Agreement. Other than a partial refund of the franchise
fee for failure to obtain a Stadium within the required time periods as
provided in Section 4.4, all other fees shall not be refundable except to the
limited extent provided in this Franchise Agreement for each fee. Franchisor
and Sponsors shall have the right to sell products and engage in promotional
programs utilizing the Team Marks, and the licenses granted to Franchisor and
Sponsors in Section 2.2(b) herein shall continue, for a period of two (2)
years from the date of termination of this Agreement. In addition, any rights
of Franchisor or Sponsors to use player likenesses shall not terminate upon
any termination of this Agreement. Franchisee shall discontinue all use of
USISL Marks immediately upon termination of this Agreement.

         FUTURE MARKETING OPPORTUNITIES. Franchisor and Franchisee recognize
that if one or more Leagues of the USISL are successful, there may be
significant opportunities to market the USISL and to obtain TV and other
media rights. Franchisor shall have the exclusive right to arrange for all
television broadcasts of all USISL games. Franchisor shall license the right
to broadcast Franchise games locally in the Territory to Franchisee upon
Franchisee's reasonable request. Any request by Franchisee to broadcast its
games locally shall be accompanied by all available information relating to
such proposed broadcast including the date(s) of games and the date(s) of
broadcast, the name of the broadcaster and the area in which the game will be
broadcast. For all regional or national broadcasts arranged by Franchisor,
Franchisor shall share any revenues received from such broadcasts with the
teams in the League that is being broadcast. Such sharing of revenues shall
be determined according to objective policies established by Franchisor from
time to time. In addition, as the USISL develops, Franchisor may develop
additional policies regarding broadcast rights with the advice of the
Marketing/Public Relations Committee. Franchisor does not guarantee that
Franchisee or its League will participate in any regional or national
broadcast coverage or that Franchisee will be entitled to any revenues from
such broadcast.

         SOCCER CAMPS. Franchisee may sponsor soccer camps in the Territory.
Franchisor consents to Franchisee using the USISL name in describing such
camp; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Franchisee shall not use the USISL Marks, other than
the USISL name, in conjunction with any camp without Franchisor's advance
written consent. Franchisee shall maintain liability insurance meeting
minimum standards determined by the Insurance Committee from time to time for
all soccer camps owned or operated by, or associated with, Franchisee, and
such insurance shall name Franchisor as an additional insured. Franchisee
shall provide Franchisor with proof of soccer camp liability insurance each
year prior to the commencement of camp activities. In the event that
Franchisor contracts with a third party camp operator to operate USISL soccer
camps and requests Franchisee to participate in such arrangement, Franchisee
shall participate in such arrangement upon reasonable terms unless Franchisee
currently operates its own soccer camp or is party to a current agreement
with a third party camp operator.

         FRANCHISEE'S CHANGE OF LEAGUES. Franchisee may change the League in
which the Franchisee participates in advance of any Season if Franchisee
meets the minimum standards for the higher League and with the consent of
Franchisor. Franchisor may grant or withhold consent to Franchisee's proposed
change in League in its sole and absolute discretion. If Franchisee desires
to move to a higher League, and Franchisor approves of such change,
Franchisee shall pay Franchisor the franchise fee for the upcoming Season
charged to owners of franchises in the higher League (described in Section
4.1(a)), LESS any franchise fee previously paid by Franchisee to Franchisor
or any membership fee paid by Franchisee to USISL, Franchisor's predecessor.
If Franchisee desires to move to a lower League, and Franchisor approves of
such change, Franchisee shall not be required to pay any additional franchise
fee and shall not be entitled to any refund of any franchise fee previously
paid to Franchisor. Franchisor may require, in its sole discretion, that
Franchisees in the A-League or D3 Pro League who cannot adhere to the Minimum
Standards or financial requirements of Franchisee's League be placed in a
lower League. Such Franchisees shall pay the participation fees associated
with the lower League, but shall not be entitled to any refund of the initial
franchise fee.

         SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN INDOOR FRANCHISE. If Franchisee
obtains a Franchise in the A-League or D3 Pro League upon entering into this
Agreement, Franchisee shall have the exclusive right to obtain a franchise
for

<PAGE>

Indoor Soccer in the Territory, provided that an Indoor team franchise for
the Territory does not exist on the effective date of this Agreement. The
exclusive right to obtain an Indoor franchise in the Territory shall continue
for a period of three (3) years from the date of this Agreement. This right
shall be subject to Franchisee entering into a separate franchise agreement
for the Indoor team franchise and Franchisee's payment of all franchise and
other fees for the Indoor team franchise. Franchisee must be in good standing
under the terms of this Agreement in order to exercise this right. If
Franchisee does not exercise this right within the three (3) year period,
Franchisor may offer an Indoor team franchise in the Territory in its
discretion.

         LIMITATIONS ON PARTICIPATION IN OTHER LEAGUES. Franchisee recognizes
that Franchisor invests considerable time and resources in the promotion of
the USISL and each of its teams. In this regard, Franchisee acknowledges and
agrees that it may not use the Franchise or the Team Marks in any other
amateur or professional soccer league in North America while this agreement
is in effect, and after it has participated in the USISL for more than one
(1) Season, for a period of one (1) year after the termination of this
Agreement, unless Franchisor otherwise agrees in writing.

         PROMOTION AND RELEGATION. Franchisor may give certain teams in the
D3 Pro League the opportunity to be promoted to the A-League without payment
of an additional Franchise Fee provided that such teams meet the Minimum
Standards for such League. Franchisor, in its discretion, shall determine
which teams shall be given this opportunity. After the A-League reaches 32
teams, and after a start-up period of three (3) years, Franchisor may develop
a system of promotion and relegation. This system would provide that one or
two (1-2) teams in the A-League will be moved to the D3 Pro League and an
equal number of teams in the D3 Pro League would be moved to the A-League. In
order for a team to be promoted to the A-League in this manner, it must meet
the Minimum Standards for the A-League and such other criteria as Franchisor
may establish from time to time with the advice of the A-League and D3 Pro
League executive committees. These criteria shall be made available to
Franchisee in advance of each Season and may include team standing, paid gate
attendance and ability to meet Minimum Standards.

         Teams that are to be promoted to the A-League would not be required
to pay an additional franchise fee but would be required to pay the
participation fees then being charged for the A-League. Teams that are to be
relegated to the D3 Pro League would not be entitled to any refund of any
franchise fee or participation fees previously paid but once the relegation
becomes effective would be able to pay participation fees then being charged
for the D3 Pro League.

         Prior to the promotion or relegation becoming effective, Franchisor
shall notify the teams eligible for promotion or to be relegated. Each team
eligible for promotion shall have the opportunity to accept or reject the
promotion. Each team to be relegated shall have the opportunity to accept the
relegation or object to it by written notice to Franchisor. If a team objects
to its selection for relegation, Franchisor shall arrange for a hearing with
Franchisor and the objecting team owner on the matter of whether the team was
properly relegated according to the criteria for relegation existing at the
time the relegation was made. The hearing shall be before a neutral tribunal
to be determined by Franchisor and agreed to by Franchisee, such agreement
not to be unreasonably withheld. The decision of the tribunal after the
completion of the hearing shall be final.

         In the event that Franchisee owns two teams that, as a result of
promotion or relegation, are in the same League, Franchisee shall transfer
ownership of one of the teams to a person or entity approved by Franchisor
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) within six (6) months of the
effective date of the promotion or relegation.

         PLAYER AGREEMENTS WITH MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER. Franchisee hereby
appoints Franchisor as its agent for negotiating a player selection agreement
with Major League Soccer ("MLS") by which players under contract with USISL
teams will have the opportunity to play in MLS games upon payment of agreed
upon compensation to the USISL and the affected franchisees. Franchisor does
not guarantee that it will enter into a player selection agreement with MLS
or that Franchisee will be entitled to any revenues as a result of such
agreement. Any player selection agreement with MLS will not be subject to the
revenue sharing procedures of Section 2.3 of this Agreement.

<PAGE>

         DISCONTINUATION OF FRANCHISE. In order to ensure the continuation of
the League and the smooth operation of the game schedule during the Season,
if Franchisee ceases to operate the Franchise during the Season or if
Franchisor terminates this Agreement during the Season because of a material
breach of this Agreement by Franchisee, in order to preserve the integrity of
the League's game schedule, Franchisor may (but shall not be obligated to)
take any necessary action to continue operation of the Franchise during the
Season, including but not limited to, Franchisor's assumption of the
Franchise, the Team Marks, any contract or lease for use of the Stadium and
the Franchise's player contracts and sponsorships.

         TEAM BANKRUPTCY. If Franchisee files a petition for bankruptcy or
has a petition for bankruptcy filed against it which is not dismissed within
sixty (60) days, or if Franchisee admits in writing its inability to pay its
debts when they come due, Franchisor shall be entitled to relief from any
automatic stay imposed by the laws of bankruptcy or otherwise on or against
the exercise of Franchisor's rights as provided in this Agreement, including,
without limitation, Franchisor's rights under Section 5.15 and 5.7 above, and
such rights as are otherwise provided by law.

         ASSIGNMENT BY FRANCHISOR. This Agreement may be assigned in whole or

shall not modify or diminish Franchisee's obligations hereunder.

         ARBITRATION. Subject to the terms of Section 6.2 herein, any claim
or controversy between Franchisor, its affiliates, shareholders, officers,
directors, agents or employees and Franchisee, its affiliates, shareholders,
officers, directors, agents or employees arising out of or relating to this

entity, separate from Franchisor at all times and shall not hold itself out
as Franchisor's employee, agent, affiliate or partner. Franchisor shall not
be liable for the acts of Franchisee, and Franchisee shall defend and hold
Franchisor harmless in any action against Franchisee which names Franchisor
as an additional defendant.

         NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. There shall be no third party
beneficiaries to this Agreement.

         ROLE OF UMBRO. Franchisee acknowledges that UMBRO is the majority
equity owner of the USISL. Consequently, interactions between UMBRO and the
USISL are not between fully independent parties, and UMBRO may be the
beneficiary of special opportunities not offered to other Sponsors or other
persons. There is no guarantee that UMBRO will participate in any such
opportunities.

         MATURATION OF LEAGUE. As the USISL League develops and matures,
Franchisor may, from time to time, adopt additional league rules or
procedures in order to promote competition among USISL teams and to promote
the competitiveness of the USISL in the sports and entertainment industry, to
the extent that such rules are permitted by law. These rules and procedures
may include a player draft, salary caps, team budgets, procedures for fining
teams that make expenditures in excess of those allowed and sharing such
penalties among all other teams in the relevant League, and waiver of rights
for released players, among other things. Franchisor makes no guarantee that
these rules or procedures will be adopted or that Franchisee will derive any
revenue if they are adopted.

RISK FACTORS

         Franchisee hereby acknowledges that participation in the USISL contains
the following risks:

         -        Franchisor does not guarantee the success of the Franchise,
                  Franchisee's League, or the USISL for any period of time.

         -        Franchisor does not provide Franchise with any assurances
                  regarding sponsorship, merchandising, or broadcast
                  opportunities, or that Franchisee will realize any revenues
                  from any such opportunities that become available.

<PAGE>

         -        Franchisor makes no representations regarding, and does not
                  guarantee, the profitability of the Franchise or the USISL.

         -        Franchisor does not guarantee that the USISL or any League
                  will be expanded or that Franchisee will derive any profit
                  from such expansion if it occurs.

         -        Franchisor makes no assurances that its existing sponsorships
                  or other agreements, including those with UMBRO and Major
                  League Soccer will be renewed or continued or that UMBRO will
                  continue to support Franchisor. There are no assurances or
                  representations regarding the extent of UMBRO's involvement in
                  the USISL other than those explicitly set forth in this
                  Agreement.

         NO PROJECTIONS OR REPRESENTATIONS

         Franchisee acknowledges and represents that it has not received from
Franchisor or its representatives any projections or representations
regarding the amount of income it can expect to earn from the Franchise
granted hereby. Franchisee acknowledges that no representations or warranties
inconsistent with the Offering Circular or this Agreement were made to induce
it to execute this Agreement.

         Franchisee acknowledges that neither Franchisor nor any other person
can guarantee the success of the Franchise. By signing this Agreement,
Franchisee acknowledges that it has read this Agreement and that it has been
requested to state in writing hereafter any terms, claims, covenants,
promises or representations including representations as to any income or
gross revenue projections that were made to Franchisee by Franchisor or its
