Dear Tom,

This letter outlines the manner in which Bristol Capital, LLC ("Bristol
Capital") proposes to assist you in obtaining investment capital financing for
GlobalETutor.com, and its successors in interest, affiliates, partners and
related business entities (the "Business"). Please review the terms of this
agreement and, if acceptable, return a signed copy to us.

TERMS

SUCCESS FEE. Bristol Capital shall receive a fee Contingent upon, the completion
of a transaction involving Financing as defined below. If the financing of the
Business or any interest of the Business is effectuated with financiers or
investors presented by Bristol Capital, Bristol shall be paid in cash at closing
or at each subsequent closing and if accomplished in multiple transactions, a
success fee equal to 10 percent for any Financing related to equity, debt or
other bridge loans as well as warrants for 10% of stock in the Business.
Additionally, as part of the Success Fee, the Business will grant to Bristol
Capital a First Right of Refusal for any subsequent financing on terms to be
negotiated. In the event public financing is included in any subsequent
financing, where Bristol Capital is involved, Bristol reserves the right to
require warrants or stock options as part of its fee. Finally, it is agreed that
Mr. Robert Willison will compensate Crescent Capital out of the Success Fee
received by Bristol Capital.

FINANCING. The term "Financing" as used herein is total invested monies
including equity, debt or other financing paid in connection with the investment
or financing of the Business in any form which may or may not include the
purchase or acquisition of various other corporations, intellectual property
rights and other business entities.

TERM.  The contract period (the "Contract Period ") shall be one year, (unless
GlobalETutor continuea to use the funding sources provided by Bristol) during
which time Bristol Capital agrees

<PAGE>

to perform the activities outlined above. However, the Business has the right to
terminate ("Termination") the Project at any time after the sixth month
following the commencement of the project, upon thirty (30) days written notice.

TERMINATION. Termination does not relieve the Business of its responsibility
regarding the Success Fee owed to Bristol Capital or the other associated costs
or expenses as defined herein. At the end of the Contract Period (if Financing
has not been effectuated), or after Termination, Bristol shall submit to the
Business a list of all potential investors/financiers who have been contacted by
Bristol, or with whom Bristol is actively working in connection with this
agreement. If any investors/financiers on the contact list actually invest in,
lend to or otherwise provide Financing to the Business within twelve (12) months
of the end of the Contract Period, after Termination, or at any time in the
future for the purpose of funding, expanding or constructing new or existing
call centers, the Success Fee shall be due to Bristol Capital, regardless of the
fact that the contract Period may have expired or been Terminated. Bristol
Capital recognizes that time is of the essence regarding this project, and will
do its utmost to assist the Business in effectuating a transaction as soon as
possible.

CONFIDENTIALITY. When engaged, Bristol Capital agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of all information concerning the Business. Bristol Capital will
also maintain as confidential the existence of the overall project.

CONSTRUCTION. The terms of this agreement shall be construed under the laws of
the State of Georgia.

LEGAL ADVICE. Bristol Capital does not provide legal advice and recommends that
the Business retain counsel of its own choosing as needed for any legal advice.

SECURITIES. Bristol Capital is not in the business of and does not sell
securities as defined under Federal and State law regulations. The hiring of
Bristol involves the finding of private funding and Financing not associated
with the sale of securities and disclosure requirements. By entering into this
Agreement, the business agrees and stipulates that it is not hiring Bristol to
engage in the sale of securities.

Finally, as we discussed, we are excited about the prospects for the Business.
Beyond this initial arrangement, we look forward to working with you to help
make your business a great success.

Sincerely,

/s/ Robert V. Willison
ROBERT V. WILLISON, for BRISTOL CAPITAL

NETWORK AVAILABILITY GUARANTEE

This Service Level Agreement (SLA) is to provide you with Internet access 100%
of the time. You will be credited one day for each hour we fail to meet this
Network Availability Guarantee up to the maximum of your monthly fee for the
Service suffering interruption.

If we fail to sustain higher than 99.9% availability for 2 consecutive months
for the facilities and network contracted for usage by you under this agreement,
it will constitute unacceptable network/facilities availability and entitle you
to terminate this agreement without further penalty. If we fail to sustain
higher than 99% uptime within any 30-day period for the facilities and network
contracted for usage by you under this agreement, it will constitute
unacceptable network/facilities availability and entitle you to terminate this
agreement without further penalty.

Said guarantee does not apply if the network is unavailable due to (a) our
standard network maintenance, (b) your applications, equipment, or facilities,
(c) acts or omissions by you, your supplier, or any use or user of the Service
you authorize, or (d) reasons of catastrophic network outages beyond our
reasonable control.

NETWORK LATENCY GUARANTEE

Comstar's Backbone Latency Guarantee is average round-trip transmissions of 100
milliseconds or less between our designated transit backbone routers ("Hub
Routers"). If we fails to meet the Backbone Latency Guarantee, your account will
be credited for the pro-rated charges for one day of our monthly fee for service
to you with respect to which this Guarantee has not been met. No credits will be
made if failure to meet the Backbone Latency Guarantee is attributable to
reasons beyond our reasonable control.

Failure to meet the above state latency metrics at least 99.9% of the time for
two consecutive months constitutes unacceptable network performance and entitles
you to terminate this agreement without further penalty or any additional
payment requirement. Failure to meet the above state latency metrics at least
99% of the time for any 30-day period constitutes unacceptable network
performance and entitles you to terminate this agreement without further penalty
or any additional payment requirement.

INSTALLATION GUARANTEE

Our Circuit Install Guarantee is to have installation of the telephone company
circuit and activation of a Comstar port completed within 20 business days for
56K leased line services, 40 business days for fractional T1 services. Services
above T1 will be installed within the scheduled installation date provided in
writing by a Comstar Sales Manager. These dates shall be counted from the date
we receive your fully executed copy of this entire agreement, completed customer
contact information form credit application. The Circuit Install Guarantee is
not available if installation delay is attributable to your equipment or
facilities or acts or omissions by you, your employees or agents, you not
passing our credit check, or reasons beyond our reasonable control.

If we determine in our reasonable commercial judgement that we have failed to
meet this Circuit

<PAGE>

Installation Guarantee, your account shall be credited 50% of our Installation
fee for the service with respect to which this Guarantee has not been met.

GENERAL

Our terms and conditions apply to the provision of the Services and the Service
Levels herein outlined, including but without prejudice to the generality of the
foregoing any clauses relating to Improper Use and Limitation of liability.

The regular Scheduled Maintenance Period is the 3-hour period from 3 am to 6 am
every day, in the local time zone, for the network concerned.

We reserve the right to carry out emergency maintenance work at any time on the
network, or at our Points of Presence, giving the Customer as much warning as is
reasonably possible. Any period of time for which connections are unavailable
during scheduled or emergency maintenance will be included in calculations of
network availability.
