    Dear
Tim:

    

    Real
Equity Solutions, Inc. (“RES”) has just closed its first secured loan on the
property at 28 Eagle Rock Rd, Mill Valley, CA in Marin county.  As we
has discussed, this loan is an interest-only 12 month loan (with a borrower
option to extend for an additional 6 months upon payment of certain
points).  The principal balance due upon the expiration of the 12
months (or 18 months, if 6 month extension is elected) is
$575,000.00.  The loan is secured by a 2nd deed of
trust on the property (subordinated to the primary lender, IndyMac Bank
FSB).

    

    As we had
discussed, CS Financing Corporation (“CSF”) will provide a lending facility to
RES for loans RES makes, but only for those transactions CSF has approved, in
its sole discretion.  The interest rate for the loan facility will be
15% per annum.  Upon the request of RES, interest payments may be
deferred for up to 180 days in the discretion of CSF.  Repayment of
loan principal will be due upon payment of principal of the underlying real
estate loan made by RES.  Under this lending facility, for the above
Eagle Rock loan, CSF has lent RES $478,000.00 as of today (February 26, 2008),
which per RES instructions was wired to the escrow account for the Eagle Rock
loan at Old Republic Title Company.  Interest shall commence to accrue
as of February 26, 2008 under this lending facility, as a result of the loan for
$478,000 for the Eagle Rock loan.  A Lending Facility Note, signed by
RES, is attached.

    

    RES
understands that CSF has expressed an interest in possibly purchasing these
loans for its investment portfolio of real estate projects.   RES
and CSF will discuss these possible investment purchases within the next 30-90
days.  RES acknowledges that CSF is under no commitment, and has not
agreed, to purchase any of the loans made under this lending facility or any
other loans made by RES.

    

    If this
is acceptable to you, please sign below.

    

    Sincerely,

    Real
Equity Solutions, Inc.

CSF dated February 28, 2008 (“Lending Facility Letter”) with interest at the
rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum to be accrued daily on a simple interest
basis.  Interest, shall be payable to CSF or its assignee, at 21 Tamal
Vista Blvd., Suite 230, Corte Madera, CA 94925 or such other place designated by
CSF (or its assignee).  Interest shall be due and payable on the first
business day of each calendar month.  Payment of interest for a
specific lending transaction may be deferred, upon the request of RES and upon
the approval of CSF, which approval is in CSF’s sole discretion, for 180
calendar days after the date on which the money is advanced to RES by CSF for
such specific transaction.  Upon expiration of the interest deferral
period, all of the deferred interest shall be due and payable.

    

     RES
may repay principal to CSF at any time.  Any payments to CSF will be
applied in the following priority: (1) first, to any fees; (2) second, to any
accrued and unpaid interest; and (3) third, to outstanding
principal.

    

    This
Lending Facility Note (and Exhibits)(“Note”) and the Lending Facility Letter
shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all
prior discussions, agreements and understandings of every kind and nature
between them as to such subject matter; and neither party will be bound nor
liable to the other party for any representation, promise or inducement made by
any agent or person in the other’s employ that is not embodied in the Note and

in connection with any payments made to Consultant by Customer pursuant to this
Agreement.

    

    7.           CONFIDENTIALITY.  Consultant
and Customer and their respective agents, directors, officers and employees

development, production, manufacturing and engineering processes, costs, profit

information marked confidential by either party.  "Confidential
Information" also includes proprietary or confidential information of any third
party who may disclose such information to Consultant or

known through no wrongful act of either party; (b) has been rightfully received
from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without breach of this
Agreement; (c) has been independently developed by the either party or its
agents; (d) has been approved for release by written authorization of either
party; (e) has been disclosed pursuant to a requirement of a governmental agency

the services will be error-free. If a particular deliverable is found to be
defective as a result of the work performed by Consultant, Consultant’s
sole obligation, at its option, under this warranty is to repair the defect or
develop a work around solution. NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY,
CONSULTANT SHALL NOT BE LIABLE WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS
AGREEMENT UNDER ANY CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER LEGAL OR
EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOST
PROFITS, OR COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS, TECHNOLOGY OR
SERVICES.

    

    9. TERMS AND
TERMINATION.  This Agreement
shall commence on the date first written above and shall continue until
terminated as follows:

    

    (a)           Either
party may terminate the Agreement in the event of a breach by the other party of
any of its obligations contained herein if such breach continues uncured for a
period of ten (10) days after written notice of such breach to the other
party;

    

    (b)           Either
party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other party if
either party is adjudicated bankrupt, files a voluntary petition of bankruptcy,
makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, is unable to meet its
obligations in the normal course of business as they fall due or if a receiver
is appointed on account of insolvency;

    

    (c)           Either
party may terminate this Agreement for its convenience upon fifteen (15) days
written notice to the other or if there is no outstanding Project
Assignment.

    

    Upon the
termination of this Agreement for any reason, each party shall be released from
all obligations and liabilities to the other occurring or arising after the date
of such termination, except that any termination shall not relieve Consultant or
Customer of their obligations under Paragraph 6 ("Taxes
and Benefits"), Paragraph 7
("Confidentiality"), Paragraph 8 ("Right to Hire") and Paragraph 14
("General"), nor shall any such termination relieve Consultant or Customer from
any liability arising from any breach of this Agreement.

    

    10.           BINDING
ARBITRATION.  In the event a
dispute of any kind or nature arises under this Agreement, any documents
executed in connection with this Agreement, or any matters related to this
Agreement, the parties shall, within ninety (90) days of the receipt by the
other party of a demand for arbitration, submit the dispute to binding
arbitration, through the San Francisco office of the American Arbitration
Association, under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration
Association.  In the event the parties are unable to agree upon an
arbitrator, the arbitrator shall be appointed in accordance with the rules and
procedures of the American Arbitration Association.  The fees for the
arbitration proceedings shall be forwarded by the party demanding
arbitration.  However, the arbitration fee shall be paid or reimbursed
by the non-prevailing party, as determined by the arbitrator, who shall also
award appropriate attorney's fees and costs to the prevailing
party.

    

    11.           INDEMNIFICATION.  Customer
shall defend, indemnify and hold Consultant harmless from any and all damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to reasonable
attorneys' fees) incurred by Consultant as a result of (i) any breach of this
Agreement by Customer; or (ii) Customer’s violation of any governmental laws,
rules, orders or regulations. Consultant shall provide Customer with written
notice of the claim and permit Customer to control the defense, settlement,
adjustment or compromise of any such claim.  Consultant may employ
counsel at its own expense to assist it with respect to any such claim;
provided, however, that if such counsel is necessary because of a conflict of
interest of either Customer or its counsel or because Customer does not assume
control, Customer will bear the expense of such counsel.

    

    In
connection with this indemnification, the Customer agrees to insure Consultant
under the Directors and Officers insurance policy obtained by the Customer at
the Customer’s expense.

    

    12.           GENERAL

    

    (a)        Assignment.  The
rights and liabilities of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit
of their respective successors, executors and administrators, as the case may
be.

    

    (b)       Attorney's
Fees.  If any action at law or in equity is necessary to
enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses in addition to any other relief
to which such prevailing party may be entitled.

    

    (c)      Governing Law; Jurisdiction
and Severability.  This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.  The
parties agree that the United Nations Conventions on Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods is specifically excluded in its entirety from
application to this Agreement.  Except as set forth in paragraph 12,
the sole and exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute or legal brought in
connection with this agreement shall be the Superior Court of Santa Clara County
or the Federal District Court Northern District of California.  If any
provision of this Agreement is for any reason found by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue
in full force and effect.

    

    (d)           Counterpart.   This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an
original and all of which shall be one and the same instrument. A facsimile copy
shall serve as an original.

Modification.  This Agreement constitutes the full and complete
understanding and Agreement of the parties hereto and supersedes all prior
understandings and agreements.  Any waiver, modification or amendment
of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective only in writing and signed
by the parties thereto.

    

    (f)           Waiver.  The
failure of either party to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms,
covenants or conditions of this Agreement by the other party shall not be deemed
a waiver of that term, covenant or condition, nor shall any waiver or
relinquishment of any right or power at any one time be deemed a waiver or
relinquishment of that right or power for all or any other time.

    

    (g)           Incorporation by

Agreement shall be considered as incorporated into, and part of, this
