            (a) The Shareholders acknowledge that, subject to the preemptive
rights set forth in Section 5.7, to the extent that the Company requires

Additional Shareholder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of a written
shareholders agreement to be entered between the Shareholders and the Additional
Shareholder(s).

            (b) The Company and the Shareholders will make available up to a

others selected by the Board on terms and conditions established by the Board.

terms and conditions approved by the Board, or (ii) by issuing up to 100,000,000

original purchase price for their respective Preference Shares, adjusted for any
share dividend, subdivision, combination, consolidation, or the like, plus the
amount of all declared but unpaid dividends relating to such Preference Shares
(the "Subscription Amount"). In the event that the proceeds available for
distribution in any liquidation or winding up are insufficient to satisfy the
full amount of the Subscription Amount, the holders of Preference Shares shall
share the available distributable proceeds ratably. After payment of the
Subscription Amount to all holders of Preferred Stock, the holders of all
classes of shares other than Preference Shares shall participate ratably (on an
as-converted basis) in any distribution of remaining assets.

the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.2(b) due to ICGA's
breach of a material provision of this Agreement, Breakaway shall be allowed to
conduct business activities in competition with the Business in the Territory
immediately upon termination, but shall not use the Licensed Marks (as defined
in the License Agreement) in connection with any such business activities until
three months after the date of termination.

      5.3 Confidentiality.

            (a) The Parties acknowledge and agree that proprietary or nonpublic

reasonably required to have the Confidential Information in connection herewith
or with any of the other Transaction Documents, (2) to its agent,
representatives, lawyers and other advisers that have a need to know such
Confidential Information and (3) pursuant to, and to the extent of, a request or
order by a Governmental Authority. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party

less than reasonable care.

            (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall
not include information that: (A) was known to the Receiving Party other than
under an obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party; (B) has become
publicly known through no wrongful act of the Receiving Party; (C) has
rightfully been received by the Receiving Party from a third party; or (D) has
been independently developed by the Receiving Party.

            (c) Each Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) its obligations
under this Section 5.3 are necessary and reasonable to protect the other Party
and its business, (ii) any violation of these provisions could cause irreparable
injury to the other Party for which money damages would be inadequate, and (iii)
as a result, the other Party shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief
against the threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 5.3 without the
necessity of proving actual damages. The Parties agree that the remedies set
forth in this Section 5.3 are in addition to and in no way preclude any other
remedies or actions that may be available at law or under this Agreement.

Interest equal to 50.1%; and

                  (ii) in connection with any subsequent issuance of new Shares,
the number of Ordinary Shares that would be necessary for ICGA to maintain a
Company Interest equal to the Company Interest it owned immediately prior to the
issuance of the new Shares.

      5.7 Preemptive Rights. The Company hereby grants to each Shareholder the
preemptive right to purchase its Pro Rata Share of Qualified New Securities
which the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue. A
Shareholder's "Pro Rata Share," for purposes of this preemptive right, is the
ratio of the number of Ordinary Shares, on an as-converted basis, owned by such
Shareholder immediately prior to the issuance of Qualified New Securities, to
the total number of Ordinary Shares, on an as-converted basis, outstanding
immediately prior to the issuance of Qualified New Securities. Each Shareholder
shall have a right of over-allotment such that if any Shareholder fails to
exercise its right hereunder to purchase its Pro Rata Share of Qualified New
Securities, the other Shareholders may purchase the non-purchasing Shareholder's
portion on a pro rata basis within 10 days from the date such non-purchasing
Shareholder fails to exercise its right hereunder to purchase its Pro Rata Share
of Qualified New Securities. This preemptive right shall be subject to the
following provisions:

            (a) In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of
Qualified New Securities, it shall give each Shareholder written notice of its
intention, describing the type of Qualified New Securities, and their price and
the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. Each
Shareholder shall have 20 days after any such notice is mailed or delivered to
agree to purchase such Shareholder's Pro Rata Share of such Qualified New
Securities for the price and upon the terms specified in the notice by giving
written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of Qualified New
Securities to be purchased.

                                       11
<PAGE>

            (b) In the event the Shareholders fail to exercise fully the
preemptive right within said 20 day period and after the expiration of the
10-day period for the exercise of the over-allotment provisions of this Section
5.7, the Company shall have 60 days thereafter to sell or enter into an
agreement (pursuant to which the sale of Qualified New Securities covered
thereby shall be closed, if at all, within 60 days from the date of said
agreement) to sell the Qualified New Securities with respect to which the
Shareholders' preemptive right option set forth in this Section 5.7 was not
exercised, at a price and upon terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof
than specified in the Company's notice to Shareholders pursuant to Section
5.7(a). In the event the Company has not sold within such 60 day period or
entered into an agreement to sell the Qualified New Securities in accordance
with the foregoing within 120 days from the date of said agreement, the Company
shall not thereafter issue or sell any Qualified New Securities, without first
again offering such securities to the Shareholders in the manner provided in
Section 5.7(a) above.

            (c) The preemptive right set forth in this Section 5.7 shall expire
upon, and shall not be applicable to, a Qualified IPO.

      5.8 Transfer Restrictions.

            (a) Subject to Section 5.8(b), each Shareholder agrees to hold its
Securities during the Term and, except as otherwise specifically provided in
this Agreement or agreed to in writing by all other Shareholders, not to sell,
transfer, assign, hypothecate or in any way alienate any of such Shareholder's
Securities or any right or interest therein.

            (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.8(a), upon written
notice to the Company and the other Shareholder(s), each Shareholder shall have
the right to transfer all or any portion of its Securities to any Affiliate of
such Shareholder or to any other Shareholder (each of the foregoing, a
"Permitted Transferee"). In addition, any Shareholder shall have the right to
transfer all or any portion of its Securities to a third party that is not a
Permitted Transferee subject to the right of first refusal described in Section
5.9. In the case of any proposed transfer permitted under this Section 5.8, the
Shareholder proposing such transfer (the "Selling Shareholder") shall deliver to
the Company and the other Shareholder(s) (the "Non-Selling Shareholder(s)") (i)
at least 30 days prior to such transfer, a written notice (the "Sale Notice")
stating its intention to transfer the Securities to be transferred, the name of
the transferee, whether such transferee is a Permitted Transferee, the number of
Securities to be transferred, and the price and other material terms and
conditions of the transfer, and (ii) except as otherwise specifically provided
herein, on or prior to the effective date of the transfer and in a form
reasonably acceptable to the Non-Transferring Shareholder(s) and their
respective counsel, the transferee's written acknowledgment of and agreement to
be bound by, and to vote the transferred Securities at all times in accordance
with, the terms of this Agreement.

            (c) No Shareholder may transfer any of its Securities to any Person
who is a Competitor.

      5.9 Right of First Refusal. Each Non-Selling Shareholder has the right of
first refusal to purchase such Shareholder's Pro Rata Share of all (or any part)
of any Shares that a Selling Shareholder may from time to time offer to sell
after the date of this Agreement.

            (a) Each Shareholder shall have twenty (20) days from the date of
mailing of any Sale Notice to agree in writing to purchase such Shareholder's
Pro Rata Share of such

                                       12
<PAGE>

Shares for the price and upon the general terms specified in the Sale Notice by
giving written notice to the Selling Shareholder and stating therein the
quantity of Shares to be purchased (not to exceed such Shareholder's Pro Rata
Share). If any Shareholder fails to so agree in writing within such 20 day
period to purchase such Shareholder's full Pro Rata Share of an offering of
Shares (a "Non-Purchasing Shareholder"), then such Non-Purchasing Shareholder
shall forfeit the right hereunder to purchase that part of his Pro Rata Share of
such Shares that he did not so agree to purchase.

            (b) In the event that the Shareholders fail to exercise in full the
right of first refusal within such 20 day period, then the Selling Shareholder
shall have 90 days after the expiration of the 20 day period to sell the Shares
with respect to which the Shareholders' rights of first refusal hereunder were
not exercised, at a price and upon terms not materially more favorable to the
purchasers thereof than specified in the Sale Notice. In the event that the
Selling Shareholder has not sold the Shares within such 90 day period, then the
Selling Shareholder shall not thereafter sell or sell any Shares without again
first offering such Shares to the Shareholders pursuant to this Section 5.9.

            (c) This right of first refusal shall terminate upon the
consummation of a Qualified IPO.

      5.10 Consideration. Each of the Shareholders may elect, in its sole
discretion, to pay the purchase price for (i) any issuance of new Shares
pursuant to Section 5.6 above, or (ii) Qualified New Securities purchased
pursuant to Section 5.7 above, in the form of freely saleable, unrestricted
shares in such Shareholder, or in the form of restricted shares, subject to the
provisions of this Section 5.10. If any shares of the class of shares used as
consideration for the purchase of Company Securities are then publicly traded in
a recognized market in the United States of America, the Shareholder shall
register any restricted shares on a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any
equivalent or similar form) within 30 days. Such Shareholder shall issue to the
Company a number of such Shareholder's common shares ("Shareholder's Common
Shares") equal to the aggregate purchase price of the Securities being purchased
by such Shareholder divided by the Market Value of the Shareholder's Common
Shares, rounded to the nearest whole share. For the purposes hereof, the term
"Market Value" shall mean the average closing price of one share of the
Shareholder's Common Shares as reported on the applicable stock exchange on
which such shares are traded for the ten (10) trading days ending on the trading
day that is immediately prior to the closing of the purchase of the Qualified
New Shares. The value of ICGA's shares shall be converted to United States
Dollars by multiplying the Market Value by the mean of the bid and offer spot
Hong Kong Dollar/United States Dollar exchange rate quoted by The Hongkong and
Shanghai Banking Corporation on the trading day immediately prior to the Closing
or by such other internationally recognized exchange rate as from time to time
may be selected by the Board.

7. Term and Termination

      7.1 Term. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date, and
shall continue in effect until terminated pursuant to Section 7.2 (the "Term").

      7.2 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated as follows:

            (a) Upon the mutual written agreement of ICGA and Breakaway.

            (b) By either ICGA and Breakaway effective immediately upon written
notice by one such Party to the other Parties, if the other Party breaches any
material provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Transaction
Documents and such breach continues uncured for a period of 60 days after the
delivery of written notice of the default, describing the default in reasonable
detail.

            (c) By either ICGA or Breakaway, effective immediately upon written
notice by one such Party to the other Parties, in the event that the other Party
is dissolved, liquidated or declared bankrupt or a voluntary or involuntary
bankruptcy filing is made by such other Party.

            (d) By ICGA, effective immediately upon written notice to Breakaway,
in the event that the Company has elected to terminate the License Agreement in
accordance with its terms.

                                       15

      7.3 Effect of Termination.

            (a) Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2(b),
due to a breach of a material provision of this Agreement by ICGA, Breakaway
shall have the option, exercisable by written notice within 14 days of the
termination, to require ICGA to purchase at fair market value all of the
Company's outstanding Securities. Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 7.2(b) due to a breach of a material provision of this Agreement by
Breakaway, ICGA shall have the option, exercisable by written notice within 14
days of the termination, to purchase all of the Company's outstanding Securities
at fair market value. The fair market value of the Company's outstanding
Securities shall be determined by mutual agreement of Breakaway and ICGA. If a
mutual agreement cannot be reached within 30 days of the written notice of
exercise, the fair market value shall be determined by a mutually acceptable
third-party auditor, who shall be instructed to complete its appraisal as
promptly as possible and, in any event, within 30 days after its appointment,
and whose fees and expenses shall be shared equally between Breakaway and ICGA.
The fair market value of the Company's outstanding Securities will be determined
based on the price per share that an unrelated third party would pay if it were
to acquire such Securities, in an arm's length transaction, based upon the value
of the Company as an ongoing, operational business entity. In calculating such
fair market value, the Securities shall be valued without regard to any premium
or discount for control or the absence of control. Any purchase of Securities
pursuant to this Section 7.3(a) shall be consummated as soon as reasonably
practicable, and in any event within 60 days, following the date of the
determination of the fair market value of the Securities. ICGA and Breakaway
agree to cooperate in good faith with respect to all actions necessary and
appropriate to effect such consummation, including, without limitation,
cooperation in the appraisal of the Company, the execution of all reasonably
requested documentation and the acquisition of all required approvals and
consents from, and the making of all required applications, notifications or
filings to or with, Governmental Authorities. The purchase price for the
Securities under this Section 7.3(a) shall be paid in cash in U.S. dollars on
the closing of the acquisition.

            (b) If the options in Section 7.3(a) are not available or not
exercised, the Shareholders shall negotiate in good faith a possible purchase by
one or more Shareholders of all outstanding Securities held by the other
Shareholders or the sale of the Company to a third party. In the event that,
notwithstanding their good faith negotiations, the Shareholders are unable to
agree upon such a purchase or sale within 30 days of the notice of termination,
the Shareholders shall cooperate to cause the Company to be liquidated as
promptly as practicable in accordance with Applicable Law. The rights and
obligations of the Shareholders under Sections 5.2(c) (Exclusivity), 5.3
(Confidentiality), 5.4 (Confidentiality of Agreement; Publicity), this Section
7.3 (Effect of Termination), and Sections 7.4 (Continuing Liability) and Article
8 (General Provisions) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

      7.4 Continuing Liability. Termination of this Agreement for any reason
shall not release any Party from any liability or obligation which has already
accrued as of the effective date of such termination, and shall not constitute a
waiver or release of, or otherwise be deemed to prejudice or adversely affect,
any rights, remedies or claims, whether for damages or otherwise, which a Party
may have hereunder, at law, equity or otherwise or which may arise out of or in
connection with such termination.

8. General Provisions

      8.1 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. Except to the extent that the laws
of another jurisdiction must govern any aspect of the transactions contemplated
hereby, the validity, construction and enforceability of this Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of
New York (as permitted by Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law) without
giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of laws
of any jurisdiction other than the internal laws of the State of New York to the
rights and duties of the parties. All disputes between the Parties arising out
of this Agreement shall be settled by the Parties amicably through good faith
discussions upon the written request of any Party. In the event that any such
dispute cannot be resolved thereby within a period of 60 days after such notice
has been given, such dispute shall be finally settled by arbitration
administered by the American Arbitration Association in New York, New York,
using the English language, and under its International Arbitration Rules. The
arbitration panel may grant specific performance, and to allocate between the
Parties the costs of arbitration in such equitable manner as the panel may
determine. The prevailing Party in the arbitration shall be entitled to receive
reimbursement of its reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith.
Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of
any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any Party shall have the right to institute a legal action in a court
of proper jurisdiction for injunctive relief or a decree for specific
performance pending final settlement by arbitration. Subject to the foregoing
the Parties hereto consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York
State or Federal Court of competent jurisdiction in the Borough of Manhattan,
New York City, and any court having jurisdiction of any appeal therefrom in any
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

      8.2 Notices and Other Communications. Any and all notices, requests,
demands and other communications required or otherwise contemplated to be made
under this Agreement shall be in writing and in English and shall be provided by

of a transmittal confirmation, (c) if transmitted by facsimile originating in
the United States, on the first (1st) Business Day following receipt of a

and if no feasible interpretation would save such provision, it shall be severed
from the remainder of this Agreement which shall remain in full force and effect
unless the severed provision is essential and material to the rights or benefits
received by any Party. In such event, the Parties shall use best efforts to
negotiate, in good faith, a substitute, valid and enforceable provision or
agreement which most nearly affects the Parties' intent in entering into this
Agreement.

      8.5 References; Subject Headings. Unless otherwise indicated, references
to Sections and Exhibits herein are to Sections of, and Exhibits to, this
Agreement. The subject headings of the Sections of this Agreement are included
for the purpose of convenience of reference only, and shall not affect the
construction or interpretation of any of its provisions.

      8.6 Further Assurances. The Parties shall each perform such acts, execute
and deliver such instruments and documents, and do all such other things as may
be reasonably necessary to accomplish the transactions contemplated in this
Agreement.

      8.7 Expenses. Prior to the Establishment Date, each party shall bear its
respective costs and expenses, including, without limitation, fees and expenses
of legal counsel, accountants, brokers, consultants and other representatives
used or hired in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this
Agreement or the License Agreement and consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby, subject to the reimbursement by the Company of such costs
and expenses. After the Establishment Date, the Company shall reimburse each

Shareholder for reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such Shareholder on
behalf of the Company, including, without limitation, costs and expenses
incurred by the Shareholders in connection with the formation of the Company.
The Operating Committee of the Company shall have the right to approve all such
reimbursable costs and expenses incurred, such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld.

      8.8 No Waiver. No waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement shall
be valid or binding on a Party unless the same shall have been set forth in a
written document, specifically referring to this Agreement and duly signed by
the waiving Party. The failure of a Party to enforce at any time any of the
provisions of this Agreement, or the failure to require at any time performance
by one or both of the other Parties of any of the provisions of this Agreement,
shall in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such
provisions, nor in any way affect the ability of a Party to enforce each and
every such provision thereafter.

      8.9 Entire Agreement; Amendments. The terms and conditions contained in
this Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) and the Transaction Documents
constitute the entire agreement between the Parties and supersede all previous
agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, between the Parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof. No agreement or understanding amending
this Agreement shall be binding upon any Party unless set forth in a written
document which expressly refers to this Agreement and which is signed and
delivered by duly authorized representatives of each Party.

      8.10 Assignment. No Party shall have the right to assign its rights or
obligations under this Agreement except in connection with a transfer of all of
such Party's Securities in a manner permitted hereunder, under terms reasonably
acceptable to the non-assigning Party and providing for the assignee to be bound
by the terms hereof, and for the assigning Party to remain liable for the
assignee's performance of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall inure
to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the Parties and their respective
successors and permitted assigns.

      8.11 No Agency. The Parties are independent contractors. Nothing contained
herein or done in pursuance of this Agreement shall constitute any Party being
the agent of any other Party for any purpose or in any sense whatsoever.

      8.12 No Beneficiaries. Nothing herein express or implied, is intended to
or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person, other than the
Parties and their Affiliates who hold Securities, any interests, rights,
remedies or other benefits with respect to or in connection with any agreement
or provision contained herein or contemplated hereby.

      8.13 Effective Date of License Agreement. The License Agreement shall
become effective concurrently with consummation, on the Establishment Date, of
the transactions described in Section 3.2(a).

      8.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, and each counterpart shall constitute an original instrument, but
all such separate counterparts shall constitute only one and the same
instrument.

      8.15 Incidental and Consequential Damages. No Party or its Affiliates will
be liable to the other Party(ies) under any contract, negligence, strict
liability or other theory for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages
(including without limitation lost profits) with respect to a breach of this
Agreement or any Transaction Document.
