      of
      which is hereby acknowledged, Holdings, H2Diesel and Xethanol agree as
      follows:

     

    TERMS

     

    
      1.    PURCHASE
        AND SALE OF SHARES

    

     

    Subject
      to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, in reliance on the
      respective representations, warranties and covenants contained herein and in
      consideration for the releases set forth herein:

     

    1.1    At
      the
      Closing (as hereinafter defined), Xethanol will sell, convey, assign and
      transfer to Holdings free and clear of all Liens (as hereinafter defined),
      and
      Holdings will purchase and redeem from Xethanol, all of the Shares for an
      aggregate purchase price equal to $7,000,000 (the “Purchase
      Price”);
      and

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    1.2    Upon
      execution of this Agreement, Holdings will pay Xethanol a non-refundable deposit
      of $250,000, which amount will be deducted from the Purchase Price payable
      at
      the Closing.

     

    
      2.    CLOSING

    

     

    2.1    Condition
      to Closing.
      The
      Closing (as hereinafter defined) is conditioned upon the closing of a
      transaction in which Holdings obtains a minimum of $10,000,000 of new financing
      (the “Financing
      Transaction”).
      Holdings may waive this condition in its sole discretion by providing written
      notice to the other parties.

     

    2.2    Closing
      Date.
      The
      Closing will occur simultaneously with or at a reasonably prompt time after
      the
      closing of the Financing Transaction, or at such date, time and location as
      mutually agreed upon by all parties in writing (the “Closing”).

     

    2.3    Termination.
      If the
      Closing does not occur on or before November 9, 2007, or such later date as
      may
      be agreed by the parties in writing, each party shall have an independent right
      to terminate this Agreement upon ten (10) calendar days’ written notice to the
      other party. No party shall incur any obligation to the other party as a result
      of such termination, unless such termination results from a failure to close
      arising from a breach by a party of its obligations hereunder, in which case
      the
      non-breaching party shall be entitled to pursue remedies at law or equity.
      The
      failure of Holdings to satisfy the condition specified in Section 2.1 shall
      not
      be a breach. However, in the event of a termination other than as a result
      of a
      breach by Xethanol of its obligations hereunder, Xethanol shall retain the
      non-refundable deposit of $250,000.

     

    2.4    Deliveries
      at Closing.
      At the
      Closing, 

     

    (a)   Xethanol
      shall deliver to Holdings

     

    
      	 	
              (i)

            	
              The
                stock certificates representing the Shares, duly endorsed in blank
                or
                accompanied by assignments separate from the certificates duly endorsed
                in
                blank; 

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (ii)

            	
              Any
                other documents necessary to transfer to Holdings good, valid and
                marketable title to the Shares, and

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (iii)

            	
              Originals
                of all promissory notes and instruments, each marked cancelled, evidencing
                any and all debt owed by Holdings or H2Diesel to Xethanol (the
                “Debt”);
                and

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (iv)

            	
              Such
                other documents as may reasonably be requested by Holdings or
                H2Diesel to further document the termination and release occurring
                effective as of the Closing.

            

    

     

    (b)   Holdings
      shall deliver to Xethanol $6,750,000, which is the Purchase Price for the Shares
      minus the $250,000 deposit previously delivered to Xethanol upon execution
      of
      the Agreement, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account
      previously designated by Xethanol. Holdings and H2Diesel
      shall also deliver such
      other
      documents as may 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    reasonably
      be requested by Xethanol to
      further document the termination and release occurring effective as of the
      Closing.

      no
      party thereto shall have any further rights or obligations
      thereunder; provided, however, that all provisions regarding confidential

      defined terms included therein, and all confidential information given by

      from any source or manner whatsoever, including without limitation those arising
      from or relating to the H2Diesel/Xethanol Agreements
      or the other agreements and documents contemplated thereby, which may exist

      future based upon events that have occurred or documents signed at any time
      prior to the date hereof or the date of Closing.

     

    3.3    Release
      by Xethanol.
      Effective as of the occurrence of the Closing, but not in the event that this

      future based upon events that have occurred or documents signed at any time
      prior to the date hereof or the date of Closing.

     

    3.4    Effectiveness
      of Termination and Release.
      For the
      avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the terminations, waivers and

    when,
      but
      only when, the sale and purchase of the Shares and payment therefor has taken
      place at the Closing. In the event this Agreement terminates prior to the
      Closing the terminations, waivers and releases in this Article 3 shall be of
      no
      force or effect, and the H2Diesel/Xethanol Agreements
      shall continue in full force and effect.

      and between MOTION PICTURE HALL OF FAME, INC., a Nevada corporation (“Owner”)
      and RIPLEY LEISURE MANAGEMENT, INC., a Delaware corporation

      development, operation, maintenance and management of a Motion Picture Hall
      of

      12.11 of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
      following new Section 12.11:

    

    “Successors
      and Assigns. Neither Operator nor Owner may assign its interest under this
      Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder to without the prior consent of
      the
      other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The
      transfer of a majority interest of the voting stock or general partnership
      interests in Operator of Owner shall be deemed to be an assignment; provided,
      however, if Operator or Owner shall be a publicly traded company, the foregoing
      shall not apply. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding
      upon
      and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
      and assigns. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary Operator
      may assign this Agreement to any Affiliate without the prior written consent
      of
      Owner.

    

    In
      the
      event either Owner or Operator shall desire to become a publicly traded company,
      the party desiring to become a publicly traded company (i) shall comply with
      all
      applicable laws, including disclosure and registration requirements, (ii) shall
      waive any and claims against the other party arising out of such securities
      offering, and (iii) shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party against
      any and all claims made against the other party arising out of such securities
      offering, and the procedures and terms set forth in Article X shall apply.”

    

    
      	
              2.

            	
              The
                effective date of this First Amendment shall be March 27,
                2004.

            

    

    

    
      	
              3.

            	
              All
                definitions, terms and conditions of the Agreement not specifically
                amended by this First Amendment shall remain unaltered in full force
                and
