Christopher's Original Formulas, Inc.
Robert (Butch) Scott, President
1195 Spring Creek Place
Springville, UT 84663

Dear Mr. Scott:

         This letter sets forth certain terms required by Vital Living, Inc.
("Lender" or "VL") as an inducement for Lender to lend Christopher's Original
Formulas, Inc., a Nevada corporation (referred to herein as the "Borrower" or
"Christopher's") $40,000 (the "Advance"). In addition, this letter constitutes
VL's non-binding intent to effectuate an acquisition (the "Acquisition") of
Christopher's by VL. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the same meaning as set forth in the Secured Promissory Note, Pledge Agreement,
Guaranties and related Security Agreement (collectively, the "Financing
Documents") being concurrently entered into.

    1.   Lender's obligation to make the Advance is subject to the following
         conditions:

         (a) Lender shall be repaid no later than the Maturity Date, which date
shall be thirty days after notice is hereby given by either party that the
Acquisition will not be effected.

         (b) Lender shall be entitled to a security interest in all of the
assets of Borrower and Borrower shall execute a Security Agreement, Secured
Promissory Note, UCC-1 and cause Robert Scott and James P. Jeppson, the
principal shareholders of Christopher's, to execute a Pledge Agreement and the
Guaranties, all substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibits 1, 2, 3
and 4 (the foregoing, together with this letter, being referred to as the
"Financing Documents"), shall each, as accommodation parties, enter into and
delivery the Guaranties substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 5.

         (c) Lender's verification of Schedule 1 hereto, which schedule
represents a list of those vendors who will be directly paid the proceeds of the
Advance.

                                       1

<PAGE>

         (d) Delivery of all original share certificates validly issued and
authorized in Christopher's Original Formulas, Inc. owned by Robert (Butch)
Scott, Sherrie Scott, Marlene Jeppson and James Jeppson, which shares equal in
total no less than 70% of the issued and outstanding shares of "Christopher's",
to Lender's counsel, Kelly Lytton & Vann LLP, attention: Bruce P. Vann, Esq.,
1900 Avenue of the Stars, Suite 1450, Los Angeles, CA 90067.

2.   As set forth in 1(c) above, VL shall disburse such funds directly to the
vendors. The foregoing shall not establish, as between VL and Christopher's any
form of partnership or fiduciary relationship, and an appropriate notice
regarding the same shall be sent to each such vendor.

3.   The Acquisition will be effectuated pursuant to the terms of a
definitive agreement containing appropriate representations and warranties from
VL and Christopher's as to the status of certain matters. The definitive
agreement, to the extent applicable, and any ancillary documents and any
employment arrangements (all collectively the "Definitive Agreements") will
provide as follows:

         a.       Price. The purchase price (the "Purchase Price") shall be in
the form of common stock of VL. Upon consummation of the Acquisition (the
"Closing"), VL shall issue 2,600,000 shares of common stock to Christopher's.
Christopher's will have the right to receive up to an additional 325,000 shares
of VL Common Stock if at the end of the 12 month period following the Closing,
certain to be defined sales and revenue targets are met, and an additional
325,000 shares of VL Common Stock if at the end of the next 24 month period
following the Closing, other defined sales and revenue targets are met. The
aggregate 650,000 shares are referred to as the "Bonus Shares". The sales and
revenue targets or as follows.

<TABLE>
<S>                  <C>                           <C>
First 12 months:     Gross Sales: $5.6 million     EBITDA: $1.6
Second 12 months:    Gross Sales: $7.3 million     EBITDA: $2.4
</TABLE>

For the avoidance of doubt each target must be reached in order to receive a
full release of the Bonus Shares. In the event that the above targets are not
reached, but the following targets the following targets are reached, each
traunche of Bonus Shares, will be reduced by 50% (i.e., to 162,500 sharers.)

<TABLE>
<S>                  <C>                           <C>
First 12 months:     Gross Sales: $4.2 million     EBITDA: $1.2
Second 12 months:    Gross Sales: $5.5 million     EBITDA: $2.0
</TABLE>

In the event that no Bonus Shares are awarded in the first twelve month, 325,000
(or 162,500 shares, as the case may be) may be awarded if the third twelve month
period after the Acquisition results for such year exceed the second 12 month
Gross Sales targets of $7.3 million Gross Revenue and $2.4 million of EBITDA (or
$5.5 million Gross Revenue and $2.0 million of EBITDA).

         b.       Escrow. A portion of the shares constituting the Purchase
Price shall be deposited into an escrow account to secure the accuracy of the
representations and warranties (and corresponding indemnification obligations)
of Christopher's contained in the Definitive

                                       2

<PAGE>

Agreements.

         c.       Funding. The Definitive Agreements will provide that VL will
provide financing to Christopher's in an amount necessary to implement the
agreed upon business plan, currently in an amount no less than $600,000 over the
next 9 months. In the event that the Acquisition is consummated, the $40,000
advance will be counted towards the $600,000, and Loan Agreements shall be
cancelled.

         d.       Structure. VL contemplates that the Acquisition will be
structured as a merger of Christopher's into a wholly owned subsidiary of VL.
The transaction shall be accounted for as a purchase.

         e.       Financial Condition; Due Diligence.

                  (i) Set forth as Schedule 2 hereto is the most current
financial statement of Christopher's. The Definitive Agreements will provide
that there has been no material change in the financial condition represented on
such schedule.

                  (ii) The Definitive Agreement will contain a requirement that
the IRS confirm that upon the payment of approximately $162,500 in Christopher's
back taxes, the IRS will waive all interest and penalties which could be
asserted against Christopher's.

                  (iii) Christopher's will permit VL, and VL's authorized
representatives (or other third party financiers) to conduct a complete due
diligence, accounting and legal review, which may commence as soon as this
letter has been executed by Christopher's. Christopher's will afford VL and its
advisors reasonable access during business hours to the offices, properties,
other facilities, books and records relating to the business of Christopher's
and to those officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and
representatives of Christopher's who have knowledge relating to its business. VL
commits to devoting the resources necessary to compress its due diligence
process into as short a time as possible to minimize the disruptions to
Christopher's business. Likewise Christopher's will have the freedom to perform
such due diligence as VL listed in this paragraph. Both parties hereby agree to
use its reasonable best efforts to negotiate and enter into Definitive
Agreements containing representations, warranties, covenants, conditions and
indemnities customary for transactions of this type.

         f.       Closing; Conditions to Closing. The parties shall use their
reasonable best efforts to consummate the Acquisition on or before April 5th,
2003. The Closing shall be conditioned upon the two principal executives, Robert
Scott (who will serve as the CEO) and Jim Jeppson (who will serve as
VP/Secretary/Treasurer) of Christopher's entering into three-year employment
agreements with the surviving subsidiary on terms to be negotiated in good
faith. The terms of such agreements will be substantially similar to the
agreements between the Company and Stuart Benson and Bill Coppel, including
provisions regarding termination, provided, however, that the salaries shall be
$100,000 per annum for each, and a car allowance of $500 per month for each.

                                       3

<PAGE>

         g.       Termination Fee. The Definitive Agreements shall provide that
in the event that Christopher's does not consummate the Acquisition through no
fault of VL, Christopher's shall pay to VL a breakup fee of $250,000. In the
event that VL does not consummate the Acquisition through no fault of
Christopher's, VL shall pay to Christopher's a breakup fee of $100,000.

4.   Both parties undertake, by sending and receiving this letter, to keep their
negotiations confidential, except as may be required by law, until such time as
it is agreed that it is appropriate to make a public announcement of the
transaction (which shall be on terms to be agreed between the parties) and not
to divulge the existence of this letter or any associated negotiations to any
third party (other than its professional advisors). VL shall hold any nonpublic
information with respect to Christopher's or its shareholder acquired in
connection with the activities contemplated herein, whether written or oral, in
confidence until such information otherwise becomes publicly available. VL will
use such information only for purposes reasonably related to the transactions
contemplated hereby. In the event that the Definitive Agreements are not
executed, VL shall use all reasonable efforts to return to Christopher's all
documents (and reproductions thereof) received from Christopher's or its
shareholder that include any such confidential information.

5.   Any disputes arising from the terms of this letter shall be governed by,
and resolved in accordance with, the laws of the State of California without
regard to the conflict of law principles thereof.

6.   Except for the commitments and undertakings of the parties in paragraphs 1
and 2 , as well as paragraph 4, this letter constitutes only a preliminary
non-binding statement of intentions of VL and Christopher's relating to the
negotiation of the terms of the Acquisition, does not contain all matters upon
which agreement must be reached for the Acquisition to be consummated and
creates no legal obligations with respect to the acquisition on the part of VL
or Christopher's.

7.   If the Definitive Agreements, and any related agreements, have not been
entered into by the parties by March 17th, 2003 (the "Termination Date") the
provisions of this agreement shall terminate and become null, void and have no
further force or effect. In the event that the Definitive Agreements are not
executed, both companies shall return all documents (and reproductions thereof)
to their rightful owners and/or their shareholders that include any such
confidential information. Nothing herein shall effect the rights of VL to the
repayment of the Advance in accordance with the terms of the Financing
Documents.

         VL's decision whether to proceed with the Acquisition will be subject
to the results of VL's due diligence and the review and approval of the
transaction by VL's Board of Directors. Subject to such due diligence, all
parties agree to use their best efforts to arrive at and execute Definitive
Agreements and to consummate the transactions as herein provided. Except as
otherwise set forth herein, all expenses incurred by any party pursuant to this
letter, shall be borne exclusively by the party incurring same.

         If you agree with the foregoing, please execute this letter and return
it to VL by no later

and warrants that:

                  (a)      Except for the security interest granted to Lender
         pursuant to this Security Agreement and other Permitted Liens, Debtor
         will be, upon the payment to Lender indicated in the Letter Agreement
         and related Note, the sole owner of each item of the Collateral in
         which it purports to grant a security interest hereunder (i.e.,
         Debtor's Option in the screenplay), having good and marketable title
         thereto, free and clear of any and all Liens.

                  (b)      No effective security agreement, financing statement,
         equivalent security or lien instrument or continuation statement
         covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in
         any public office, except such as may have been filed by Debtor in
         favor of Lender, pursuant to this Security Agreement or such as relate
         to other Permitted Liens.

                  (c)      Appropriate financing statements having been filed or
         to be filed in all jurisdictions in which the Collateral is located,
         this Security Agreement is effective to create a valid and continuing
         first priority lien on and first priority perfected security interest
         in the Collateral with respect to which a security interest may be
         perfected by filing pursuant to the UCC in favor of Lender, prior to
         all other Liens except Permitted Liens, and is enforceable as such as
         against creditors of and purchasers from Debtor (other than purchasers
         of Inventory in the ordinary course of business). To Debtor's best
         knowledge, all action necessary or desirable to protect and perfect
         such security interest in each item of the Collateral has been or will
         be duly taken.

                  (d)      Debtor's principal place of business and the place
         where its records concerning the Collateral are kept is located at the
         address of Debtor set forth above hereto, and Debtor will not change
         such principal place of business or remove such records unless it has
         taken such action as is necessary to cause the security interest of
         Lender in the Collateral to continue to be perfected. Debtor will not
         change its principal place of business or the place where its

                                       9

<PAGE>

         records concerning the Collateral is kept without giving thirty (30)
         days' prior written notice thereof to Lender.

         4. Covenants. Debtor covenants and agrees with Lender that from and
         after the date of this Security Agreement and until the Secured
         Obligations are fully satisfied:

                  (a)      Financing Statements and Further Documentation.
                  Debtor will join with Lender in the execution and filing of
                  such financing statement or statements in the form and content
                  reasonably required by Lender. At any time and from time to
                  time, upon the written request of Lender, Debtor will promptly
                  and duly execute and deliver any and all such further
                  instruments and documents and take such further action as
                  Lender may reasonably deem desirable to obtain the full
                  benefits of this Security Agreement and of the rights and
                  powers herein granted, including, without limitation, using
                  its reasonable efforts to secure all consents and approvals
                  necessary or appropriate for the assignment to Lender, of any
                  License or Contract entered into by Debtor or in which Debtor
                  has any rights not heretofore assigned, the filing of any
                  financing or continuation statements under the UCC with
                  respect to the liens and security interests granted hereby,
                  transferring Collateral to Lender's possession (if a security
                  interest in such Collateral can be perfected by possession),
                  placing the interest of Lender as lienholder on the
                  certificate of title of any vehicle and using its reasonable
                  efforts to obtain waivers of liens from landlords and
                  mortgagees. Debtor also hereby authorizes Lender to file any
                  such financing or continuation statement without the signature
                  of Debtor to the extent permitted by applicable law.

                  (b)      Maintenance of Records. Debtor will keep and maintain
                  at its own cost and expense satisfactory and complete records
                  of the Collateral, including, without limitation, a record of
                  all payments received and all credits granted with respect to
                  the Collateral and all other dealings with the Collateral.
                  Debtor will mark its books and records pertaining to the
                  Collateral to evidence this Security Agreement and the
                  security interests granted hereby.

                  (c)      Indemnification. In any suit, proceeding or action
                  brought by Lender relating to the Collateral, Debtor will
                  save, indemnify and keep Lender harmless from and against all
                  expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense,
                  setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability
                  whatsoever of the obligor thereunder, arising out of a
                  material breach by Debtor of any obligation thereunder or
                  arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability
                  at any time owing to, or in favor of, such obligor or its
                  successors from Debtor, and all such obligations of Debtor
                  shall be and remain enforceable against and only against
                  Debtor and shall not be enforceable against Lender.

                  (d)      Compliance with Laws, etc. Debtor will comply, in all
                  material respects, with all acts, rules, regulations, orders,
                  decrees and directions of any governmental authority,
                  applicable to the Collateral or any part thereof or to the
                  operation of Debtor's

                                       10

<PAGE>

                  business; provided, however, that Debtor may contest any act,
                  regulation, order, decree or direction in any reasonable
                  manner which shall not in the sole opinion of Lender,
                  adversely affect Lender's rights hereunder or adversely affect
                  the first priority of its security interest in the Collateral.

                  (e)      Payment of Obligations. Debtor will pay promptly when
                  due all Charges imposed upon the Collateral or in respect of
                  its income or profits therefrom and all claims of any kind
                  (including, without limitation, claims for labor, material and
                  supplies) except as otherwise provided in the Note.

                  (f)      Compliance with Terms of Accounts, etc. In all
                  material respects, Debtor will perform and comply with all
                  obligations in respect of Accounts Receivable, Chattel Paper,
                  Contracts and Licenses and all other agreements to which it is
                  a party or by which it is bound.

                  (g)      Limitation on Liens on Collateral. Debtor will not
                  create, permit or suffer to exist, and will defend the
                  Collateral against and take such other action as is necessary
                  to remove, any Lien on the Collateral except Permitted Liens,
                  and will defend the right, title and interest of Lender in and
                  to any of Debtor's rights under the Chattel Paper, Contracts,
                  Documents, Intangible Assets and Instruments and to the
                  Equipment and Inventory and in and to the Proceeds thereof
                  against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

                  (h)      Limitations on Disposition. Debtor will not sell,
                  lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral,
                  or attempt or contract to do so except in the ordinary course
                  of business.

                  (i)      Continuous Perfection. Debtor will not change its
                  name, identity or corporate structure in any manner which
                  might make any financing or continuation statement filed in
                  connection herewith seriously misleading within the meaning of
                  section 9-402(7) of the UCC (or any other then applicable
                  provision of the UCC) unless Debtor shall have given Lender at
                  least thirty (30) days' prior written notice thereof and shall
                  have taken all action (or made arrangements to take such
                  action substantially simultaneously with such change if it is
                  impossible to take such action in advance) reasonably
                  necessary or reasonably requested by Lender to amend such
                  financing statement or continuation statement so that it is
                  not seriously misleading.

         5.       Lender's Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact; Release of Lien;
         Non-Disturbance.

                  (a)      Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints
         Lender and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of
         substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full
         irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Debtor and in
         the name of Debtor or in its own name, from time to time in Lender's
         discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Security
         Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and

                                       11

<PAGE>

         deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or
         desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement and,
         without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives Lender
         the power and right, on behalf of Debtor:

                           (i)      to ask, demand, collect, receive and give
                  acquittances and receipts for any and all moneys due and to
                  become due under any Collateral and, in the name of Debtor or
                  its own name or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse
                  and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other
                  Instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Collateral
                  and to file any claim or to take any other action or
                  proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed
                  reasonably appropriate by Lender for the purpose of collecting
                  any and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever
                  payable and to file any claim or to take any other action or
                  proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed
                  reasonably appropriate by Lender for the purpose of collecting
                  any and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever
                  payable;

                           (ii) to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security
                  interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or
                  threatened against the Collateral, to effect any repairs or
                  any insurance called for by the terms of this Security
                  Agreement and to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor
                  and the costs thereof; and

                           (iii) (A) to direct any party liable for any payment
                  under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all
                  moneys due, and to become due thereunder, directly to Lender
                  or as Lender shall direct; (B) to receive payment of and
                  receipt for any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due,
                  and to become due at any time, in respect of or arising out of
                  any Collateral; (C) to sign and indorse any invoices, freight
                  or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse
                  receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications
                  and notices in connection with accounts and other Documents
                  constituting or relating to the Collateral; (D) to commence
                  and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in
                  equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the
                  Collateral or any part thereof and to enforce any other right
                  in respect of the Collateral; (E) to defend any suit, action
                  or proceeding brought against Debtor with respect to the
                  Collateral; (F) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit,
                  action or proceeding described above and, in connection
                  therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Lender may
                  deem appropriate; (G) to license or, to the extent permitted
                  by an applicable license, sublicense, whether general, special
                  or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive
                  basis, any Patent or Trademark pertaining to the Collateral,
                  throughout the world for such term or terms, on such
                  conditions, and in such manner, as Lender shall in its sole
                  discretion determine; and (H) generally to sell, transfer,
                  pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal
                  with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though
                  Lender were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and
                  to do, at Lender's option and Debtor's expense, at any time,
                  or from time to time, all acts and things which Lender
                  reasonably deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize
                  upon the Collateral and Lender's Lien therein, in order to

                                       12

<PAGE>

                  effect the intent of this Security Agreement, all as fully and
                  effectively as Debtor might do.

                  (b)      Lender agrees that, except upon the occurrence and
         during the continuation of an Event of Default, it will not exercise
         the power of attorney or any rights granted to Lender pursuant to this
         Section 5. Debtor hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all
         that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue
         hereof. The power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 5 is a
         power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the
         Secured Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full.

                  (c)      The powers conferred on Lender hereunder are solely
         to protect Lender's interests in the Collateral and shall not impose
         any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Lender shall be
         accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of
         the exercise of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers,
         directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Debtor for any
         act or failure to act, except for its own gross negligence or willful
         misconduct.

                  (d)      Debtor also authorizes Lender, at any time and from
         time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
         Event of Default, (i) to communicate in its own name with any party to
         any Contract with regard to the assignment of the right, title and
         interest of Debtor in and under the Contracts hereunder and other
         matters relating thereto and (ii) to execute, in connection with the
         sale provided for in Section 8 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or
         other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the
         Collateral.

                  (e)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon repayment of the
Advance and any other amounts outstanding under the Note and Letter Agreement,
Lender will immediately file appropriate UCC Termination Statements. The failure
of Lender to do so shall be a material breach and shall entitle Debtor to
liquidated damages of $50,000.

         6. Performance by Lender of Debtor's Obligation. If Debtor fails to
perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein within the
allotted cure period and Lender, as provided for by the terms of this Security
Agreement, shall itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or
compliance, with such agreement, the reasonable expenses of Lender incurred in
connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon
at the rate then in effect in respect of the Loans, shall be payable by Debtor
to Lender on demand and shall constitute Secured Obligations secured hereby.

         7.       Events of Default. The following conditions or events shall
constitute an Event of Default:

                  (a)      A default in the payment of principal or interest
         under the Note;

                  (b)      Any representation or warranty which materially
         adversely affects the rights of Lender in connection with this
         Agreement, the Letter Agreement of the Note shall be false in

                                       13

<PAGE>

         any material respect on the date as of which made not otherwise cured
         within ten (10) business days; or

                  (c)      (i) A court having jurisdiction in the premises shall
                  enter a decree or order for relief in respect of Debtor in an
                  involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency
                  or any other similar law now or hereafter in effect, which
                  decree or order is not stayed; or any other similar relief
                  shall be granted under any applicable federal or state law and
                  such order is not dismissed or discharged within thirty (30)
                  days; or

                           (ii)     An involuntary case shall be commenced
                  against Debtor under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
                  similar law now or hereafter in effect; or a decree or order
                  of any court having jurisdiction in the premises for the
                  appointment of a receiver, liquidator, sequestrator, trustee,
                  custodian or other officer having similar powers over Debtor
                  or over all or over a substantial part of its property, shall
                  have been entered; or there shall have been an involuntary
                  appointment of an interim receiver, trustee or other custodian
                  of Debtor for all or a substantial part of its property; or
                  there shall have been issued a warrant of attachment,
                  execution or similar process against any substantial part of
                  the property of Debtor and any such event in this clause (ii)
                  shall have continued for thirty (30) days unless dismissed,
                  bonded or discharged; or

                  (d)      Debtor shall have an order for relief entered with
         respect to it or commence a voluntary case under any applicable
         bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect,
         or shall consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary
         case, or to the conversion of an involuntary case to a voluntary case,
         under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking
         possession by a receiver or other custodian for all or a substantial
         part of its property; or Debtor shall make any assignment for the
         benefit of creditors; or Debtor shall fail or be unable or shall admit
         in writing its inability to pay its debts as such debts become due; or
         the Managing Directors of Debtor (or any committee thereof) shall adopt
         any resolution or otherwise authorize any action to approve any of the
         foregoing; or

                  (e)      Debtor shall be dissolved or shall file a petition
         for dissolution, unless Debtor's successor executes and delivers to
         Lender a security agreement substantially similar in all respects to
         this Agreement.

         8.       Remedies, Rights Upon an Event of Default.

                  (a)      If any Event of Default shall occur and be
         continuing, Lender may exercise in addition to all other rights and
         remedies granted to it in this Security Agreement and in any other
         instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured
         Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.
         Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Debtor expressly
         agrees that in any such event Lender, without demand of performance or
         other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice
         specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon
         Debtor or any other person (all and each of which demands,
         advertisements and/or notices are hereby expressly waived to the

                                       14

<PAGE>

         maximum extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable law), may
         forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the
         Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease,
         assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise
         dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any
         part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or
         sales, at any exchange or broker's board or at any of Lender's offices
         or elsewhere at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit
         or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Lender
         shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the
         extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to
         purchase the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any
         right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption Debtor hereby
         releases. Debtor further agrees, at Lender's request, to assemble the
         Collateral and make it available to Lender at places which Lender shall
         reasonably select, whether at Debtor's premises or elsewhere. Lender
         shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt,
         appropriation, realization or sale, as provided in Section 8(d) hereof,
         Debtor remaining liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after such
         application, and only after so paying over such net proceeds and after
         the payment by Lender of any other amount required by any provision of
         law, including Section 9-504(1)(c) of the UCC, need Lender account for
         the surplus, if any, to Debtor. To the maximum extent permitted by
         applicable law, Debtor waives all claims, damages, and demands against
         Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the
         Collateral except such as arise out of the gross negligence or wilful
         misconduct of Lender. Debtor agrees that Lender need not give more than
         ten (10) days' notice (which notification shall be deemed given when
         mailed or delivered on an overnight basis, postage prepaid, addressed
         to Debtor at its address referred to in Section 11 hereof) of the time
         and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale
         may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such
         matters. Debtor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds
         of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay
         all amounts to which Lender, for its benefit, is entitled, Debtor also
         being liable for the fees of any attorneys employed by Lender to
         collect such deficiency.

                  (b)      Debtor also agrees to pay all reasonable costs of
         Lender, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees,
         incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of its rights and
         remedies hereunder.

                  (c)      Debtor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or
         any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any
         kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

                  (d)      The Proceeds of any sale, disposition or other
         realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be distributed
         by Lender in the following order of priorities:

                           first, to Lender in an amount sufficient to pay in
                  full the reasonable expenses of Lender in connection with such
                  sale, disposition or other realization, including all

                  unpaid principal of and accrued interest on the Note.

                           third, to Debtor, all remaining amounts.

                  9.       Limitation on Lender's Duty in Respect of Collateral.
Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its
possession or under its control. Lender shall not have any other duty as to any

agent or nominee of it or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights
against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. Upon request of
Debtor, Lender shall account for any moneys received by it in respect of any
foreclosure on or disposition of the Collateral.

                  10.      Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or

time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof,

otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations,
whether as a "voidable preference", "fraudulent conveyance", or otherwise, all
as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any
payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the
Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount
paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

                  11.      Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein,
whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent,
approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served

                  (b)      If to Debtor, at

The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the
party entitled to receive such notice. Every notice, demand, request, consent,
approval, declaration or other communication hereunder shall be deemed to have
been duly given or served on the date on which personally delivered, with
receipt acknowledged, or the date of the telecopy transmission, or three (3)
Business Days after the same shall have been deposited in the United States
mail. Failure or delay in delivering copies of any notice, demand, request,
consent, approval, declaration or other communication to the persons designated
above to receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the effectiveness of
such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other
communication.

                  12.      Severability. Any provision of this Security
Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

                  13.      No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Lender shall not by
any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights
or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by
Lender and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Lender of any
right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to
any right or remedy which Lender would otherwise have had on any future
occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of
Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies
hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently,
and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. None of the
terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified
or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Lender and
Debtor.

                  14.      Successor and Assigns. This Security Agreement and
all obligations of Debtor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and
assigns of Debtor, and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Lender
hereunder, inure to the benefit of Lender, and all future holders of instruments
or agreements evidencing the Secured Obligations and their respective successors
and assigns. No sales of participation, other sales, assignments, transfers or
other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the
Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any
manner affect the security interest granted to Lender hereunder.

MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES THEREOF
REGARDING CONFLICT OF LAWS, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA. AGENT, EACH OF LENDER AND DEBTOR AGREE TO SUBMIT TO PERSONAL
JURISDICTION AND TO WAIVE ANY OBJECTION AS TO VENUE IN THE COUNTY OF LOS
ANGELES, STATE OF CALIFORNIA. SERVICE OF PROCESS ON DEBTOR, AGENT OR ANY LENDER
IN ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE
EFFECTIVE IF MAILED TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS LISTED IN SECTION 11 HEREOF.
DEBTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS CT CORPORATION SYSTEM AS DEBTOR'S AGENT FOR
THE PURPOSE OF ACCEPTING THE SERVICE OF ANY PROCESS WITHIN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. DEBTOR AGREES NOTHING HEREIN SHALL PRECLUDE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR
DEBTOR FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER
JURISDICTION.

                  16.      Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise explicitly
provided in this Security Agreement, a conflict or inconsistency, if any,
between the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement and the terms and
provisions of the Note shall be controlled by the terms and provisions of the
Note to the extent of such conflict or inconsistency.

                  17.      Further Indemnification. Debtor agrees to pay, and to
save Lender harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting
from any delay in paying, any and all excise, sales or other similar taxes which
may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral
or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Security
Agreement.

                  18.      Subsequent Modification or Termination of Security
Interest. Upon the amendment or termination of Lender's security interest
granted hereunder (as contemplated by Paragraph 1(e) of the Letter Agreement),
Lender agrees to execute either an amendment or termination statements to
acknowledge such amendment or termination. Debtor shall be granted the power of
attorney to execute the foregoing amendments, termination statements or releases
in the event Lender fails to do so within ten (10) days of being requested to do
so.

agreements executed and to be wholly performed therein. any controversy or claim

performance of this Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be resolved by
arbitration in accordance with the rules and procedures of[ ] , as said rules
may amended from time to time with rights of discovery if requested by the
arbitrator. Such rules and procedures are incorporated and made a part of this
Agreement by reference. If [ ] shall refuse to accept jurisdiction of such
dispute, then the parties agree to arbitrate such matter before and in
accordance with the rules

and that the prevailing party in such arbitration and/or confirmation proceeding
shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorney's fees and expenses. The
arbitration will be held in Phoenix, Arizona and any award shall be final,
binding and non-appealable. The parties agree to accept service of process in
accordance with [ ].

                  20.      MUTUAL WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT SECTION 19
IS INAPPLICABLE BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND
EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY
(RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE
RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE
BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE
PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS

OTHER AGREEMENTS.

Security Agreement to be executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer
on the date first set forth above.

                             SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE

$40,000                                                  As of February 28, 2003

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, each of the undersigned, (the "Borrower") hereby
promises to pay to the order of Vital Living, Inc., a Nevada corporation
("Lender"), or holder, at 5080 N. 40th Street, Suite 105, Phoenix Arizona 85018
or at such other address as the holder may specify in writing, the principal sum
of Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000), plus interest, in lawful money of the
United States of America, or such amount thereof as has been advanced hereunder,
in the manner and upon the terms and conditions set forth below (collectively,
the "Indebtedness"). This Secured Promissory Note ("Note") relates to that
certain letter agreement (the "Letter Agreement") and related Security Agreement
(the "Security Agreement"), Pledge Agreement (the "Pledge Agreement") and
Guaranty, , dated as of the date hereof, between and among, as the case may be,
Borrower, the shareholders of Borrower, and Lender.

         Any capitalized term herein, unless otherwise defined herein, shall
have the meaning set forth in the Security Agreement.

         1.       Rate and Payment of Interest.

                  The principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at the
rate of 10%. The Indebtedness shall be payable no later than 30 days after
notice of a termination of the Acquisition (as such term is defined in the
Letter Agreement) (the "Maturity Date").

         2.       Prepayment.

                  The undersigned may prepay the principal of this Note, without
penalty, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time, upon at least
two (2) business days' prior written notice to the Lender and (b) all
prepayments of the principal of this Note shall be accompanied by the payment of
all accrued but unpaid interest on this Note through the date of prepayment. Any
prepayment under this Section of less than all of the outstanding principal of
this Note shall be applied to the installments of principal in the inverse order
of maturity.

         3.       Holder's Right of Acceleration.

                  If an "Event of Default" has occurred under the Security
Agreement and the Letter Agreement, the entire remaining principal balance and
all accrued and unpaid interest and other fees and charges with respect to this
Note shall, at Lender's option, become due and payable on the effective date of
termination.

4.       Holder's Rights Upon Default.

                                       20

<PAGE>

                  If an "Event of Default" has occurred and such default remains
uncured for 30 days after written notice under this Note or Security Agreement,
(other than a payment default, for which only five days written notice shall be
required), then the principal balance of this Note shall thereafter, at Lender's
option, bear interest at 2.5% in addition to the rate set forth in Section 1
above, calculated over a year of 360 days.

         5.       Additional Rights of Holder.

                  5.1      If the principal or interest hereunder is not paid
when due, the holder shall have, in addition to the rights set forth herein, in
the Security Agreement and under law, the right to compound interest by adding
the unpaid interest to principal, with such amount thereafter bearing interest
at the rate provided in this Note.

                  5.2      Holder shall receive, no later than the 10th day of
each month, a sales report from Borrower detailing the activity in the preceding
month respect to all sales and accounts receivables.

         6.       Events of Default.

                  6.1      Each of the following specified events hereby
constitutes and is herein referred to individually as an "Event of Default":

                           (a)      Borrower's failure to make (or cause to be
made) any payments to the Lender under this Note when the same are due; or

                           (b)      Default in the due and timely observance or
performance of the material terms, provisions, covenants, conditions, agreements
or obligations of Borrower contained in the Letter Agreement, the Security
Agreement or this Note which would adversely and materially affect the validity,
perfection or priority of the security interest of the Lender in the Collateral,
or the value of the Collateral or the Note; or

                           (c)      Suspension by Borrower of its business
operations and failure to reinstate operations within twenty (20) business days
of such suspension; or

                           (d)      Borrower transfers all or substantially all
of its assets to a third party other than Lender.

                  6.2      At the Lender's option, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, and at any time thereafter if such Event of Default shall then
be continuing:

                           (a)      Unless such Event of Default is cured within
the time period provided for hereunder, the Indebtedness may, without
presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
expressly waived by Borrower, be forthwith called due and payable, if not
otherwise then due and payable (anything in this Note or other agreement,

                                       21

<PAGE>

contract, indenture, document or instrument contained to the contrary
notwithstanding) and the Maturity Date shall be accelerated accordingly;

                           (b)      The Lender may pursue the remedies afforded
to it hereunder or under any of the documents executed in connection herewith,
or any other remedy afforded to it by law or equity, and the Lender may, at its
option, do and perform all other acts and things reasonably necessary for the
proper preservation and protection of its rights hereunder, or pursuant to the
Security Agreement, all at the cost and expense of Borrower, which amount so
expended shall constitute costs recoupable by the Lender; and

                           (c)      The Lender may, at its option, engage others
to exercise or discharge any of its rights or obligations hereunder.

         7.       General Provisions.

                  7.1      If this Note is not paid when due, the undersigned
further promises to pay all costs of collection, foreclosure fees, and
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the holder, whether or not suit is filed
hereon, and the fees, costs and expenses as provided in the Agreement.

                  7.2      Presentment for payment, demand, notice of dishonor,
protest and notice of protest are hereby expressly waived.

other charges charged hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under any
law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination,
deem applicable hereto. In the event that a court determines that the payee
hereunder has received interest in excess of the highest rate applicable hereto,
the payee shall promptly refund such excess amount to the undersigned and the
provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate.

                  7.4      No delay or omission on the part of the holder of
this Note in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any
other right.

                  7.4      A waiver by the holder of this Note upon any one
occasion shall not be construed as a bar or waiver of any right or remedy on any
future occasion.

                  7.5      Should any one or more of the provisions of this Note
be determined illegal or unenforceable, all other provisions shall nevertheless
remain effective.

                  7.06     This Note cannot be changed, modified, amended or
terminated orally.

                  7.07     This Note shall be governed by, construed and

Pledged Securities will be, the sole holder of record free and clear of any Lien
thereon or affecting the title thereto except for the Lien created by this
Agreement.

                  (b)      Pledgor has the right and requisite capacity or
authority to pledge, assign, transfer, deliver, deposit and set

<PAGE>

over the Pledged Securities pledged by such Pledgor to Secured Party, as
provided herein.

                  (c)      None of the Pledged Securities of Pledgor has been
transferred n violation of the securities registration, securities disclosure or
similar laws of any jurisdiction to which such transfer may be subject.

                  (d)      No consent, approval, authorization or other order of
any Person and no consent, authorization, approval or other action by, and no
notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is
required to be made or obtained by such Pledgor either (i) for the pledge by
Pledgor of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Agreement or for the
execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by such Pledgor or (ii) for
the exercise by Secured Party, of the voting or other rights provided for in
this Agreement or the remedies in respect of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to
this Agreement, except as may be required in connection with such disposition by
laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally.

                  (e)      The pledge, assignment and delivery of the Pledged
Securities pursuant to this Agreement will create a valid first priority Lien on
and a first priority perfected security interest in the Pledged Securities
pledged by such Pledgor, and the proceeds thereof, securing the payment of the
Obligations.

                  The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 5
shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

                  6.       Covenants. Each Pledgor covenants and agrees that
until (i) the obligation is paid in full,:

                  (i)      Without the prior written consent of Secured Party,
except as otherwise provided herein, Pledgor will not sell, assign, transfer,
pledge or otherwise encumber any of their rights in or to the Pledged Collateral
pledged by Pledgor or any unpaid dividends or other distributions or payments
with respect thereto or grant a Lien in any thereof.

                  (ii)     Pledgor has and will defend the title to the Pledged
Securities pledged by the Pledgor and the Liens of Secured Party against the
claim of any Person and will maintain and preserve such Liens until the
Obligation is paid in full.

                  7.       Pledgors' Rights. As long as no Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing and until written notice shall be given to
Pledgors in accordance with Section 8(a) hereof. Pledgors shall be entitled,
from time to time, to collect and receive for their own use and shall not be
required to pledge pursuant to Section 2, all cash dividends paid in respect of
the Pledged Securities pledged by each Pledgor.

                  8.       Defaults and Remedies. (a) Upon the failure of COF to
pay any payment under the Note on the date due (an "Event of Default") and
during the continuation of such Event of Default (provided that such is not
waived by Secured Party), Secured Party, without written notice to the Pledgors,
(personally or through an agent) is hereby authorized and empowered to transfer
and register in his name or in the name of his nominee the whole or any part of
the Pledged Securities to exchange certificates or instruments representing or
evidencing Pledged Securities for certificates or instruments of smaller or
larger denominations, to exercise the voting rights with respect thereto, to
collect and receive all cash dividends and other distributions made thereon, to
sell in one or more sales after ten (10) days' notice of the time and place of
any public sale or of the time after which a private sale is to take place
(which notice Pledgors agree is commercially reasonable), but without any
previous notice or advertisement, the whole or any part of the Pledged
Securities and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though
Secured Party was the outright owner thereof; Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably
appoints Secured Party as the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, with
full power of substitution to do so. Any sale shall be made at a public or
private sale at Secured Party's place of business either for cash or upon credit
or for future delivery at such price as Secured Party may deem fair, and Secured
Party may be the purchaser of the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral so
sold and hold the same thereafter in his own right free from any claim of
Pledgors or any right of redemption. Each sale shall be made to the highest
bidder, but Secured Party reserves the right to reject any and all bids at such
sale which, in his discretion, it shall deem inadequate. Demands of performance,
except as otherwise herein specifically provided for, notices of sale,
advertisements and the presence of property at sale are hereby waived and any
sale hereunder may be conducted by an auctioneer or any officer or agent of
Secured Party.

                  (b)      If, at the original time or times appointed for the
sale of the whole or any part of the Pledged Securities, the

                                       27

<PAGE>

highest bid, if there be but one sale, shall be inadequate to discharge in full
all the Obligations, or if the Pledged Securities be offered for sale in lots,
if at any of such sales, the highest bid for the lot offered for sale would
indicate to Secured Party, in his discretion, the unlikelihood of the proceeds
of the sales of the whole of the Pledged Securities being sufficient to
discharge all the Obligations, Secured Party may, on one or more occasions and
in his discretion, postpone any of said sales by public announcement at the time
of sale or the time of previous postponement of sale, and no other notice of
such postponement or postponements of sale need be given, any other notice being
hereby waived; provided, however, that any sale or sales made after such
postponement shall be after ten (10) days' notice to the Pledgors.

                  (c)      In the event of any sales hereunder, Secured Party
shall, after deducting all costs or expenses of every kind (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements) for care, safekeeping, collection, sale,
delivery or otherwise, apply the residue of the proceeds of the sales to the
payment or reduction, either in whole or in part, of the Obligations in
accordance with the agreements and instruments governing and evidencing the
Obligations, returning the surplus, if any, to the Pledgors.

                  (d)      Pledgors agree that following the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default they will not at any time plead,
claim or take the benefit of any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension,
moratorium or redemption law now or hereafter in force in order to prevent or
delay the enforcement of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of the whole or
any part of the Pledged Securities or the possession thereof by any purchaser at
any sale hereunder, and each Pledgor waives the benefit of all such laws to the
extent it lawfully may do so. Pledgors agrees that they will not interfere with
any right, power and remedy of Secured Party provided for in this Agreement or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, or the
exercise or beginning of the exercise by Secured Party of any one or more of
such rights, powers or remedies. No failure or delay on the part of Secured
Party to exercise any such right, power or remedy and no notice or demand which
may be given to or made upon any Pledgor by Secured Party with respect to any
such remedies shall operate as a waiver thereof, or limit or impair Secured
Party's right to take any action or to exercise any power or remedy hereunder,
without notice or demand, or prejudice his rights as against any Pledgor

                                       28

<PAGE>

in any respect.

                  (e)      Pledgors further agree that a breach of any of the
covenants contained in this Section 8 will cause irreparable injury to Secured
Party, that Secured Party has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such
breach and, as a consequence, agrees that each and every covenant contained in
this Section 8 shall be specifically enforceable against Pledgors, and Pledgors
hereby waive and agree not to assert any defenses against an action for specific
performance of such covenants except for a defense that the Obligations are not
then due and payable in accordance with the Secured Promissory Note.

                  9.       Application of Proceeds. All cash proceeds received
by Secured Party in respect of any sale of, liquidation of, or other realization
upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral shall be applied by Secured Party
as follows:

                  (a)      First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of
such sale, including reasonable compensation to Secured Party and his agent and
counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Secured
Party in connection therewith;

                  (b)      Next, to the payment of the Obligations; and

                  (c)      Finally, after payment in full of all Obligations, to
the payment equally to each Pledgor, or successors or assigns, or to whomsoever
may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such proceeds.

                  10.      Waiver. No delay on Secured Party's part in
exercising any power of sale, option or other right hereunder, and no notice or
demand which may be given to or made upon the Pledgors by Secured Party with
respect to any power of sale, option or other right hereunder, shall constitute
a waiver thereof, or limit or impair Secured Party's right to take any action or
to exercise any power of sale, Lien, option, or any other right hereunder,
without notice or demand, or prejudice Secured Party's rights as against the
Pledgors in any respect.

                  11.      Assignment. Secured Party may assign, endorse or
transfer any instrument evidencing all or any part of the Secured Obligations
and the holder of such instrument shall be entitled to the benefits of this
Agreement.

                                       29

<PAGE>

                  12.      Termination. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 10 hereof, immediately following the payment of all Obligations, Secured
Party shall deliver to Pledgors the Pledged Securities pledged by Pledgors at
the time subject to this Agreement and all instruments of assignment executed in
connection therewith, free and clear of the Liens hereof, and any assignment
required to be executed by Secured Party to effect such redelivery and, except
as otherwise provided herein, all of the Pledgors' obligations hereunder shall
at such time terminate.

                  13.      Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein,
whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent,
approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served
upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties
desires to give or serve upon any other communication with respect to this

                                    GUARANTY

         This Guaranty (this "Guaranty"), dated as of February 28, 2003, is
executed and delivered by Robert (Butch) Scott, a Utah resident ("Guarantor").

                                    RECITALS

         This Guaranty is entered into in reference to the following facts:

                  (a)      Christopher's Original Formulas, Inc., a Nevada
corporation ("Borrower"), and Vital Living, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("VL"),
are entering into a letter agreement, promissory note and security agreement,
all dated of even date herewith, pursuant to which VL is loaning to Borrower
$40,000 (the "Loan Agreements").

                  (b)      The Guarantor is materially interested in the
financial success of the Borrower, agrees that the Loan Agreements are in the
Borrower's best interests, and acknowledges that VL will not enter into the Loan
Agreements absent the execution and delivery to VL of this Guaranty.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the Guarantor hereby
agrees, in favor of VL, as follows.

                             ARTICLE 1 - DEFINITIONS

         1.1      Definitions. The following capitalized terms, as used in this
Guaranty, shall have the following meanings:

                  "Bankruptcy Code" means the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11
U.S.C. Sections 101 et seq.), as amended or supplemented from time to time, and
any successor statute, and any and all rules issued or promulgated in connection
therewith.

                  "Guaranteed Obligations" means the payments due to VL from the
Borrower under the terms of the Loan Agreements.

         1.2      Construction. Unless the context of this Guaranty clearly
requires otherwise, references to the plural include the

                                       34

<PAGE>

singular, references to the singular include the plural, and the term
"including" is not limiting. The words "hereof," "herein," "hereby,"
"hereunder," and other similar terms refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not
to any particular provision of this Guaranty. Any reference herein to any of the
Loan Agreements includes any and all alterations, amendments, extensions,
modifications, renewals, or supplements thereto or thereof, as applicable.
Neither this Guaranty nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed
or resolved against VL or Guarantor, whether under any rule of construction or
otherwise. This the Guaranty has been reviewed by the Guarantor, VL, and their
respective counsel, and shall be construed and interpreted according to the
ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and
intentions of VL and the Guarantor.

                             ARTICLE 2 - GUARANTIES

         2.1      Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally guarantees to VL, as and for the Guarantor's own debt, until
final and indefeasible payment thereof has been made, payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations, in each case when and as the same shall become due and payable,
whether at maturity, pursuant to a mandatory prepayment requirement, by
acceleration, or otherwise; it being the intent of the Guarantor that the
guaranty set forth herein shall be a guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of
collection.

         2.2      Performance Under This Guaranty. In the event that the
Borrower fails to make any payment of any Guaranteed Obligations on or before
the due date thereof, the Guarantor immediately shall cause such payment to be
made.

         2.3      Primary Obligations. This Guaranty is a primary and original
obligation of the Guarantor, is not merely the creation of a surety
relationship, and is an absolute, unconditional, and continuing guaranty of
payment and performance which shall remain in full force and effect without
respect to future changes in conditions, including any change of law or any
invalidity or irregularity with respect to the Loan Agreements. The Guarantor
agrees that the Guarantor is severally and not jointly and severally liable,
with any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, to VL, to the extent set
forth in Section 2.1 hereof, that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are
independent of the obligations of the Borrower, or any other guarantor, and that
a separate action may be brought against the Guarantor whether such

                                       35

<PAGE>

action is brought against the Borrower or any other guarantor or whether the
Borrower or any such other guarantor is joined in such action. The Guarantor
agrees that the Guarantor's liability hereunder shall be immediate and shall not
be contingent upon the exercise or enforcement by VL of whatever remedies it may
have against the Borrower or any other guarantor, or the enforcement of any lien
or realization upon any security VL may at any time possess. The Guarantor
agrees that any release which may be given by VL to the Borrower, or any other
guarantor shall not release Guarantor. The Guarantor consents and agrees that VL
shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets of the Borrower or any other
guarantor in favor of the Guarantor, or against or in payment of any or all of
the Guaranteed Obligations.

         2.4      Indefeasible Payment. The Guaranteed Obligations shall not be
considered indefeasibly paid for purposes of this Guaranty unless and until all
payments to VL are no longer subject to any right on the part of any person,
including the Borrower as a debtor in possession, or any trustee (whether
appointed under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) of any of their assets, to
invalidate or set aside such payments or to seek to recoup the amount of such
payments or any portion thereof, or to declare same to be fraudulent or
preferential. Upon such full and final performance and indefeasible payment of
the Guaranteed Obligations, whether by the Borrower pursuant to the Loan
Agreements or by any other person, VL shall have no obligation whatsoever to
transfer or assign its interests in the Loan Agreements to the Guarantor. In the
event that, for any reason, any portion of such payments to VL is set aside or
restored, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, after the making thereof, then
the obligation intended to be satisfied thereby shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if said payment or payments had not been made, and
the Guarantor shall be liable for the full amount VL is required to repay plus
any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses and
attorneys' fees and expenses incurred pursuant to proceedings arising under the
Bankruptcy Code) paid by VL in connection therewith.

         2.5      Separate Property. Any married individual who signs this
Guaranty in his or her individual capacity hereby expressly agrees that recourse
may be had against his or her separate property for all Guaranteed Obligations
hereunder.

                                       36

<PAGE>

         2.6      Death of Guarantor.

                  (a)      The death of Guarantor shall not terminate this
Guaranty. Within two (2) months after the date of Guarantor's death, the
Guarantor's successor(s)-in-interest shall notify VL of such event. The
Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives
the benefits of any statute of limitations governing the time limit within which
VL must commence an action to enforce this Guaranty against the Guarantor's
successor(s)-in-interest following the Guarantor's death, including under
Section 366.2 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or any similar law of
any other jurisdiction.

                  (b)      To the extent that the Guarantor is the grantor of
any trust which is a guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or is otherwise
liable for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, upon the death of the
Guarantor, the Guarantor agrees that VL shall have the right to obtain
accounting for each such trust and obtain judicial review of the actions and
proceedings of the trustees of each such trust.

                          ARTICLE 3 -WAIVERS; RELEASES

         3.1      Waivers.

                  (a)      The Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly,
and expressly waives:

                  (i)      (1) notice of acceptance hereof; (2) notice of any
loans or other financial accommodations made or extended under the Loan
Agreements or the creation or existence of any Guaranteed Obligations; (3)
notice of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, subject, however, to
Guarantor's right to make inquiry of VL to ascertain the amount of the
Guaranteed Obligations at any reasonable time; (4) notice of any adverse change
in the financial condition of the Borrower, or of any other fact that might
increase Guarantor's risk hereunder; (5) notice of presentment for payment,
demand, protest, and notice thereof as to any instruments among the Loan
Agreements; (6) notice of any breach of the Loan Agreements; and (7) all other
notices (except if such notice is specifically required to be given to the
Guarantor hereunder) and demands to which the Guarantor might otherwise be
entitled.

                  (ii)     its right, under Sections 2845 or 2850 of the
California Civil Code, or otherwise, to require VL to institute

                                       37

suit against, or to exhaust any rights and remedies which VL has or may have
against, the Borrower, or any third party, or against any collateral for the
Guaranteed Obligations provided by the Borrower or any third party. In this
regard, Guarantor agrees that the Guarantor is bound to the payment of all
Guaranteed Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter accruing, as fully as
if such Guaranteed Obligations were directly owing to VL by the Guarantor. The
Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or
other defense (other than the defense that the Guaranteed Obligations shall have
been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid) of the Borrower or by
reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the
Borrower in respect thereof.

                  (iii)    (1) any rights to assert against VL any defense
(legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which the Guarantor may
now or at any time hereafter have against the Borrower or any other party liable
to VL; (2) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind or nature,
arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection,
sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any
security therefor; (3) any defense the Guarantor has to performance hereunder,
and any right the Guarantor has to be exonerated, provided by Sections 2819,
2822, or 2825 of the California Civil Code, or otherwise, arising by reason of:
the impairment or suspension of VL's rights or remedies against the Borrower;
the alteration by VL of the Guaranteed Obligations; any discharge of the
Guaranteed Obligations to VL by operation of law as a result of VL's
intervention or omission; or the acceptance by VL of anything in partial
satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations; (4) the benefit of any statute of
limitations affecting the Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement
thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation of any statute of
limitations applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations shall similarly operate to
defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations applicable to the
Guarantor's liability hereunder.

                  (c)      The Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly,
and expressly waives any defense arising by reason of or deriving from (i) any
claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by VL; or (ii) any election
by VL under the Bankruptcy Code Section 1111(b) to limit the amount of, or any
collateral securing, its claim against the Borrower.

<PAGE>

         3.2      Election of Remedies. Pursuant to Section 2856 of the
California Civil Code, the Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out
of an election of remedies by the creditor, even though that election of
remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a
guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Guarantor's rights of subrogation and
reimbursement against the Borrower.

         3.3      Waiver of Subrogation. The Guarantor hereby absolutely,
unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives: (i) any right of subrogation
the Guarantor has or may have as against the Borrower with respect to the
Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any right to proceed against the Borrower, or any
other person or entity, now or hereafter, for contribution, indemnity,
reimbursement, or any other suretyship rights and claims, whether direct or
indirect, liquidated or contingent, whether arising under express or implied
contract or by operation of law, which the Guarantor may now have or hereafter
have as against the Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; and
(iii) any right to proceed or seek recourse against or with respect to any
property or asset of the Borrower.

         3.4      General Waiver. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER
WAIVER OR OTHER PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR HEREBY
ABSOLUTELY, KNOWINGLY, UNCONDITIONALLY, AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO
ASSERT ANY AND ALL BENEFITS OR DEFENSES ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY UNDER ANY
ONE OR MORE OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 2799, 2808, 2809, 2810, 2815,
2819, 2820, 2821, 2822, 2825, 2839, 2845, 2848, 2849, AND 2850, AND 726,
CALIFORNIA UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SECTIONS 3116, 3118, 3119, 3419, 3605, 9504,
AND 9507, AND CHAPTER 2 OF TITLE 14 OF PART 4 OF DIVISION 3 OF THE CALIFORNIA
CIVIL CODE.

         3.5      Releases. The Guarantor consents and agrees that, without
notice to or by the Guarantor, and without affecting or impairing the
obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, VL may, by action or inaction:

                  (a)      compromise, settle, extend the duration or the time
for the payment of, or discharge the performance of, or may refuse to or
otherwise not enforce this Guaranty, the other Loan Agreements, or any part
thereof, with respect to the Borrower or any other person;

                  (b)      release the Borrower or any other person or grant

                                       39

<PAGE>

other indulgences to the Borrower or any other person in respect thereof;

                  (c)      amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or
from time to time) any of the Loan Agreements; or

                  (d)      release or substitute any other guarantor, if any, of
the Guaranteed Obligations, or enforce, exchange, release, or waive any security
for the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guaranty of the Guaranteed
Obligations, or any portion thereof.

         3.6      No Election of Remedies. VL shall have all of the rights to
seek recourse against the Guarantor to the fullest extent provided for herein,
and no election by VL to proceed in one form of action or proceeding, or against
any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of VL's right to
proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other parties
unless VL has expressly waived such right in writing. Specifically, but without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or proceeding by VL under
any document or instrument evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations shall serve to
diminish the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty except to the extent
that VL finally and unconditionally shall have realized indefeasible payment by
such action or proceeding.

         3.7      Subordination. The Guarantor hereby agrees that any and all
present and future indebtedness of the Borrower owing to the Guarantor is
postponed in favor of and subordinated to payment, in full, in cash, of the
Guaranteed Obligations. In this regard, no payment of any kind whatsoever shall
be made with respect to such indebtedness until the Guaranteed Obligations have
been indefeasibly paid in full.

         3.8      Payments; Application. All payments to be made hereunder by
the Guarantor shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at
the time of payment, shall be made in immediately available funds, and shall be
made without deduction (whether for taxes or otherwise) or offset. All payments
made by the Guarantor hereunder shall be applied as follows: first, to all costs
and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses and attorneys' fees and
expenses incurred pursuant to proceedings arising under the Bankruptcy Code)
incurred by VL in enforcing this Guaranty or in collecting the Guaranteed
Obligations; second, to all accrued and unpaid interest, premium, if any, and
fees owing to VL constituting Guaranteed Obligations; and third, to the balance
of the Guaranteed Obligations.

<PAGE>

         3.9      Cumulative Remedies. No remedy under this Guaranty or under
any of the Loan Agreements is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but
each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any and every other
remedy given hereunder or under any of the Loan Agreements, and those provided
by law or in equity. No delay or omission by VL to exercise any right under this
Guaranty shall impair any such right nor be construed to be a waiver thereof. No
failure on the part of VL to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right.

                   ARTICLE 4 - REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

         4.1      Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor hereby
represents and warrants to VL that upon their execution and delivery in
accordance with their respective terms, this Guaranty and the Loan Agreements
will constitute legal, valid and binding agreements and obligations of the
Guarantor enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with their respective
terms, except as enforceability may be limited by the bankruptcy, insolvency,
fraudulent conveyance, and similar laws and equitable principles affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally.

         4.2      Financial Condition. The Guarantor represents and warrants to
VL that the Guarantor is currently informed of the financial condition of the
Borrower and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal
and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. The
Guarantor further represents and warrants to VL that the Guarantor has read and
understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreements. The Guarantor
hereby covenants that the Guarantor will continue to keep informed of the
Borrower's financial condition, the financial condition of other guarantors, if
any, and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or
nonperformance of the Guaranteed Obligations.

                                       5

                  (a)      To cooperate with VL and follow all directives,
policies, procedures and guideline established by VL relating to the conduct of
the business.

                  (b)      To deposit into the Company Accounts all funds, in
whatever form, received by Company in connection with the Business.

                  (c)      Not to incur any debts, enter into any agreements, or
incur any expenses, make any commitments relating to the Business, or otherwise
incur obligations unless approved by VL or undertaken pursuant to guidelines and
procedures established by VL.

                  (d)      Not to issue any stock in the Company or rights to
acquire any stock, options, warrants, or securities convertible in to the stock
of the Company without the prior written consent of VL.

         11.      Company Accounts.

                  A list of each of the Company's operating accounts is attached
hereto as Exhibit A ("Company Accounts"). VL shall have the right to designate
two employees as a signatory to each of the Company Accounts, whose signature
will be required to transfer to disburse funds over $500. Mitchel Feinglas and
Stuart Benson are approved as such designees.

         12.      Miscellaneous Authority and Duties of the Parties.

                  Each of the parties agrees to cooperate fully with each other
in connection with the performance of their respective obligations under this
Agreement, and the parties agree to employ reasonable efforts to resolve any
dispute that may arise under or in connection with this Agreement. Subject to VL
maintaining the confidentiality of Company's confidential information, Company
shall provide to VL full and complete access to Company's premises, and to
Company's charts, books, and records, in order that VL can perform its functions
hereunder.

                  Notwithstanding any other provisions contained herein, VL
shall not be liable to Company, and shall not be deemed to be in default
hereunder, for the failure to perform any of VL's obligations to be performed or
provided by VL pursuant to this Agreement if such failure is a result of a labor
dispute, act of God, or any other event which is beyond the reasonable control
of VL.

         13.      Term of Agreement.

                  (a)      This Agreement shall remain in effect through the
Term unless mutually terminated or terminated as provided herein.

                  (b)      VL may terminate this agreement at any time.

                  (c)      Company may terminate this Agreement if, and only if,
VL gives written notice that it does not intend to consummate the transaction
contemplated by the VL Letter of Intent

                                       6

<PAGE>

and the amount of the VL Note is repaid in full, and VL shall have received all
VL Recoupable Amounts.

                  (d)      Unless otherwise terminated during the Term,
or unless either party gives the other party one hundred twenty (120) days
advance written notice of its intention not to renew, the Term shall
automatically renew for successive one year periods following the expiration of
the Term. If either party gives a non-renewal notice, they will meet to discuss
whether there is any other basis to continue the relationship.

         14.      Default; Remedies on Default.

                  (a)      Except as otherwise provided herein, upon the Default
of a party, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the non-defaulting
party may terminate this Agreement upon delivery of thirty (30) days prior
written notice to the other party. A "Default" shall be deemed to occur as set
forth below in Section 14(b).

                  (b)      In the event of a party's commitment of a breach of
any material term, covenant, or condition of the Agreement ("Material Breach"),
no Default may be declared by the non-breaching party and no remedy provided
hereunder may be undertaken until the provisions of this paragraph 14 have been
complied with fully and in good faith. If the party to whom a notice Material
Breach ("Notice of Breach") is delivered fails to respond in writing to said
Notice of Breach and fails to cure or to undertake the cure of the alleged
Material Breach within thirty (30) days after delivery of the said Notice of
Breach, such party shall be deemed to be in Default and the other party may
pursue any and all remedies available to such party hereunder. If, however, the
party to whom the Notice of Breach is delivered within thirty (30) days after
delivery of such Notice of Breach notifies the other party in writing that the
Notice of Breach is rejected and that no Material Breach has occurred or (with
or without an admission that a Material Breach has occurred) proposes a cure
which is not reasonably acceptable to the other party, the parties shall be
required to meet and consult with one another and exercise all reasonable
efforts to resolve the dispute.

                  (c)      The parties agree that during the consultation period
they will meet at least monthly and take other reasonable good faith measures to
resolve the dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute within
sixty (60) days after either party has delivered written notice to the other of
its election to initiate such consultation then, within the following thirty
(30) days, either party may elect to submit the dispute to non-binding
mediation.

                  (d)      Each party will select a mediator and the two
mediators will select a third mediator. Each party will present to the mediators
their respective arguments in support of their positions. The parties agree to
meet with the mediators and use all reasonable good faith efforts to resolve the
dispute through mediation. If the mediators and the parties are unable to
resolve the dispute within one hundred twenty (120) days of the appointment of
the mediators, the party who delivered the Notice of Breach may, but is not
required to, seek whatever remedies are available under California law,
including initiating proceedings in law or in equity.

                                       7

<PAGE>

                  (e)      VL agrees that until such dispute is resolved, or if
not resolved, until the mediation process is completed, whichever first occurs,
that VL will continue to provide Company the services as required by this
Agreement.

                  (f) The various rights and remedies herein provided shall be
cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies the parties may be
entitled to pursue under applicable NEVADA LAW. The exercise of one or more of
such rights or remedies shall not impair the rights of either party to exercise
any other right or remedy at law or in equity. Termination of this Agreement
shall not release or discharge any party from any obligation, debt or liability
which shall have previously accrued, and remain to be performed as of the
effective date of termination. THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO THE JURISDICTION OF
ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEVADA, AND IRREVOCABLY
AGREE THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS. THE PARTIES ACCEPT THE EXCLUSIVE
JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVE ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM
NON-CONVENIENS, AND IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED
THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

         15.      Confidential Information and Trade Secrets.

                  Each party hereto recognizes that due to the nature of this
Agreement, the other party will have access to information of a proprietary
nature owned by VL including, but not limited to, any and all computer programs
(whether or not completed or in use) and any and all operating manuals or
similar materials, policies and procedures, and methods of doing business
developed by the other. Consequently, each party acknowledges and agrees that
they respectively have a proprietary interest in all such information and that
all such information constitutes confidential and proprietary information and is
the trade secret property of each such party. Each party hereby waives any and
all right, title and interest in and to such trade secrets and confidential
information and agrees to return all copies of such trade secrets and
confidential information related thereto to the other, at the other's expense,
upon the termination of the Agreement.

                  Each party further acknowledges and agrees that the other is
entitled to prevent its competitors from obtaining and utilizing their
respective trade secrets and confidential information. Therefore, each party
agrees to hold the other party's trade secrets and confidential information in
strictest confidence and not to disclose them or allow them to be disclosed,
directly or indirectly, to any person or entity other than those persons or
entities who are employed by or affiliated with VL or Company, as the case may
be, without the prior written consent of the other. Each party shall not, either
during the term of this Agreement, or at any time after the expiration or sooner
termination of this Agreement, disclose to anyone other than persons or entities
who are employed by or affiliated with the other any confidential or proprietary
information or trade secret information obtained by either of them, except as
otherwise required by law.

                  Each party acknowledges and agrees that a breach of this
Section 15 will result in irreparable harm to the other which cannot be
reasonably or adequately compensated in damages, and

                                       8

<PAGE>

therefore VL shall be entitled to injunctive and/or equitable relief to prevent
a breach and to secure enforcement thereof, in addition to any of the relief or
award to which such party may be entitled.

         16.      Indemnification.

                  (a)      Indemnification of VL. Company shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless VL, its agents, representatives, employees, officers,
directors, and representatives from and against any and all losses, liabilities,
claims, damages, deficiencies, and expenses including interest; penalties, court
costs and reasonable attorneys' fees ("Losses") which may be incurred by or
suffered by such persons or entities and which arise out of or result from any
breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Company
contained in this Agreement or which related to the operation of the Business
prior to the date hereof, or to the operation of the Business after the date
hereof unless arising from VL's gross negligence, willful misconduct or any
breach of fiduciary duty.

                  (b)      Indemnification of Company. VL shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Company, its agents, representatives, employees,
officers, directors, and representatives from and against any and all Losses
which may be incurred by or suffered by such persons or entities relating to the
breach by VL of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the gross
negligence or intentional misconduct of VL in the performance of its duties
hereunder.

         17.      Assignment.

                  This Agreement and the rights and obligations created
hereunder shall not be assigned or subcontracted by Company, either voluntarily
or by operation of the law, without the express prior written consent of VL. Any
assignment without such consent shall be null and void. In addition to its
rights to delegate its duties hereunder as set forth above, VL may only assign,
transfer, pledge or hypothecate this Agreement and VL's rights, interests and
benefits hereunder to any entity which has beneficial ownership of a majority of
VL's outstanding equity securities or to any entity in which VL owns such
beneficial ownership.

         19.      Governing Law.

                  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the
laws of the State of Nevada.

         20.      Waiver.

                  The waiver of any covenant, condition or duty hereunder by
either party shall not prevent that party from later insisting upon full
performance of the same.

         21.      Amendment.

                  No amendment to the terms of this Agreement shall be binding
on any party unless in writing and executed by the duly authorized
representatives of each party.

         22.      Entire Agreement.

                  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties
in connection with the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior
agreements, whether written or oral, and whether explicit or implicit, which
have been entered into before the execution hereof. Should any litigation arise
among the parties, no party shall (and each party hereby waives the right to)
introduce any parol evidence which would tend to contradict or impeach any of
the express written terms, conditions, and covenants of this Agreement.

         23.      Notice.

                  Any notice or other communication required or which may be
given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally,
telegraphed, telexed or sent by facsimile, or sent by certified, registered or
