COOPERATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT 

THIS COOPERATIVE
SERVICES AGREEMENT ("Agreement" or "CSA") is made and entered into on this the

(the "Company"). 

WITNESSETH: 

WHEREAS, the Company
desires to engage HFG to provide certain consulting services as specifically
enumerated below commencing as of the date hereof related to the Going Public
Transaction and the Post-Transaction Period (each as hereinafter defined), and
HFG is willing to be so engaged. 

NOW, THEREFORE, for

to be gained by the parties hereto, and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and adequacy of which are now and forever acknowledged and
confessed, the parties hereto hereby agree and intend to be legally bound as

provided that HFG shall be responsible for the actions and omissions of any such
third parties it engages and the fees and expenses of any such third parties
shall be included in the Fee (as hereinafter defined). In its capacity as a
consultant to the Company, HFG will: 

A. 

Going Public Transaction and Call Agreement. 

Assist the Company in evaluating the manner of effecting a going public
transaction with a public shell corporation ("Pubco") domiciled in the United
States of America which is neither obligated to file periodic reports under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 nor is quoted on the "OTC BB" (a "Going Public
Transaction"). It is anticipated that upon consummation of both the Going Public
Transaction and the Company’s current private placement of securities (the
"Company Offering"), which will generate estimated gross offering proceeds of at
least $9,000,000 (with the anticipation that the Company will have a post-money
valuation of approximately $39 million), Pubco’s current stockholders will hold
approximately 10% of all the issued and outstanding shares of Pubco’s common
capital stock. Upon consummation of the Going Public Transaction, it is
anticipated that the ownership percentage of the Pubco’s outstanding common
stock will be as follows: 

Existing Company Shareholders 67% 

Investors in the Offering 23% 

Original Pubco Shareholders 10%

COOPERATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT – Page 1 

Immediately prior to the closing of the Going Public Transaction, Pubco shall be
controlled by Halter Financial Investments, L.P., a Texas limited partnership
controlled by the limited partners of HFG. HFG shall ensure that at the time of
closing of the Going Public Transaction HFI and any persons to whom HFI is
obligated to transfer any of its holdings in Pubo (collectively the "Pubco
Shareholders") shall enter into a Call Agreement (the "Call Agreement") with
certain existing shareholders of the Company (the "Company Shareholders"). Under
the terms of the Call Agreement, the Company Shareholders shall have the right
to purchase from the Pubco Shareholders up to fifty percent (50%) of the shares
of Pubco’s common stock held by the Pubco Shareholders at the time of closing of
the Going Public Transaction at a per share price equal to 125% of the price per
share paid by participants in the Offering. The Call Agreement shall terminate 3
months following the Closing of the Going Public Transaction. The Company shall
be under no obligation to complete the Going Public Transaction in the event
that the Call Agreement providing for the terms set forth above is not executed
by the applicable Pubco Shareholders. 

B. 

Post
Transaction Period 

Upon consummation of the Going Public
Transaction, HFG agrees to: 

(i) 

assist Pubco in the preparation of a Form 211 Application to make
Pubco’s securities eligible for quotation on the OTC BB; 

(ii) 

if necessary, coordinate with the Company’s legal counsel the
preparation and assembly of application materials for the listing of Pubco’s
common stock on a national stock exchange; and 

(iii) 

provide Pubco with such additional advisory services as may be
reasonably requested, to the extent HFG has the expertise or legal right to
render such services. 

2. 

Authorization. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
Company hereby appoints HFG to act on a best efforts basis as its consultant
during the Authorization Period (as hereinafter defined). HFG hereby accepts
such appoint, with it being expressly acknowledged that HFG is acting in the
capacity of independent contractor and not as agent of either the Company,
affiliates of the Company or Pubco. 

3. 

Authorization Period. HFG’s engagement hereunder shall become effective
on the date hereof (the "Effective Date") and will automatically terminate (the
"Termination Date") on the first to occur of the following: (a) 180 days from
the Effective Date in the event the Going Public Transaction has not been
completed, (b) the mutual decision of the parties not to move forward with the
Going Public Transaction or (c) 12 months from the Effective Date. 

4. 

Fees and Expenses. In consideration for the services to be provided for
hereunder the Company shall pay to HFG the amount of $300,000 (the "Fee") to be
paid on the closing date of the Going Public Transaction. The Fee will also be
used to compensate HFG for any expenses incurred by either HFG or any third
party engaged by HFG in connection with HFG’s efforts to fulfill its obligations
under this Agreement. The Company shall be under no obligation to pay any part
of the Fee to HFG in the event this Agreement is terminated as a result of the
Company’s decision not to complete the Going Public Transaction because it was
either unable to complete the Company Offering or elected not to go forward with
the Company Offering for any business purpose.

agreement between the parties hereto with respect to HFG’s engagement hereunder,
and all prior writings and discussions are hereby merged into this Agreement. No
