                      SETTLEMENT AND FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT

     This Settlement and Forbearance Agreement dated July 15, 1993 (this
"Agreement"), is executed in Canada by University Patents, Inc. ("UPI"), a
Delaware corporation, Unilens Corp. USA ("Unilens USA"), a Delaware corporation,
and Unilens Vision Inc. ("Unilens Vision"), a British Columbia corporation
formerly known as Unilens Optical Corp. (together, Unilens USA and Unilens
Vision are referred to as "Unilens"). This Agreement provides the terms and
conditions for a stipulated dismissal without prejudice of UPI's lawsuit against
Unilens (the "Ligation") styled University Patents Inc. v. Unilens Corp. USA and
Unilens Vision Inc., Case No. 93-2400, Division A. pending in the Circuit Court
for Hillsborough County, Florida, Civil Division (the "Court").

                                 OPERATIVE TERMS
                                 ---------------

     In consideration of the mutual promises set forth below and other valuable
consideration, the parties hereto agree:

     1.   Effective Date. This Agreement will become effective, if at all, on
the date (the "Effective Date") that: (1) the issuance of the Settlement Shares
(as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) is approved by the Vancouver Stock
Exchange on which Unilens Vision's stock is traded, pursuant to the
"shares-for-debt" exemption, without imposing any hold period which would
prohibit UPI from immediately transferring the Settlement Shares in Canada on
the Vancouver Stock Exchange in accordance with the rules of the Vancouver Stock
Exchange and all applicable Canadian securities laws, and(2) EBC Zurich AG
("EBC") consents to Unilens USA's execution of the Settlement Documents. If,
however, each of the foregoing conditions does not occur on or before September
30, 1993, the Settlement Documents will become permanently void on that date and
will never become effective.

     2.   Stock Purchase Agreement. As consideration for this Agreement, UPI,
Unilens USA, and Unilens Vision have executed, contemporaneously with the
execution of this. Agreement, a Stock Purchase Agreement in the form attached as
Exhibit "A" (the Stock Purchase Agreement") pertaining to Unilens Vision's
issuance of the Settlement Shares to UPI. Collectively, this Agreement, the
Stock Purchase Agreement, and the Dismissal Stipulation described herein
constitute the "Settlement Documents," and the Settlement Documents, together
with the Asset Purchase Agreement executed by UPI and Unilens on January 23,
1989, as modified in writing by the parties (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"),
constitute the "Governing Agreements."

     3.   Conditional Forbearance of Rights under the Asset Purchase Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, UPI will conditionally forbear its
right to receive and collect payments that were or are to be made pursuant to
the Asset Purchase Agreement, but only to the extent described herein and only
with respect to payments scheduled to be made during calendar years 1992

                                      - 2 -

through 1995 under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

     4.   Payments Due to UPI on or before January 31, 1993. In consideration of
UPI's forbearance of its right to receive and collect the unpaid amounts due to
UPI on or before January 31, 1993, under the terms of the Asset Purchase
Agreement, and totalling U.S. $262,500, Unilens will on the Effective Date: (1)
pay to UPI U.S. $50,000 in cash, by cashier's check (delivered to Mr. J. Wayne
Marsden at the offices of C.M. Oliver, 750 West Pender Street, Second Floor,
Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 1B5) or by wire transfer to the account of UPI,
and (2) convey to UPI the Settlement Shares, pursuant to the terms of the Stock
Purchase Agreement.

     5.   Payment Due to UPI on January 31, 1994. In consideration of UPI's
forbearance of its right to receive and collect the U.S. $275,625 payment due to
UPI on or before January 31, 1994, under the terms of the Asset Purchase
Agreement, Unilens will pay to UPI U.S. $75,000 in cash, by cashier's check or
wire transfer to the account of UPI, on January 31, 1994.

     6.   Payment Due to UPI on January 31, 1995. In consideration of UPI's
forbearance of its right to receive and collect the U. S. $289,406 payment due
to UPI on or before January 31, 1995, under the terms of the Asset Purchase
Agreement (1) on January 31, 1995 Unilens will pay to UPI U.S. $145,000 in cash,
by cashier's check or wire transfer to the account of UPI, and (2) on July 31,
1995 Unilens will pay to UPI U.S. $144,406 in cash, plus interest on U.S.
$144,406 at the prime rate specified in the Wall Street Journal (or, if that
rate is not available from the Wall Street Journal, the prime rate as
established by any similar publication or major banking institution
headquartered in the United States) for the period beginning January 31, 1995,
and ending July 31, 1995, by cashier's check or wire transfer to the account of
UPI.

     7.   Continued Effect of Asset Purchase Agreement. The Asset Purchase
Agreement is modified only to the extent set forth in the Settlement Documents.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Settlement Documents, all
payments scheduled to be made by Unilens to UPI on January 31, 1996, and
thereafter, shall be made as specified in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

     8.   Remedies for Breach: Termination of Forbearance. In the event Unilens
fails to make either the $50,000 payment described in section 4 or the $75,000
payment described in section 5 (the "Forbearance Payments") when due (a
"Breach"), UPI's forbearance described in this Agreement will automatically be
voided and terminated and all unpaid amounts that would otherwise have accrued
and would be due to UPI from Unilens on or before that time under the Asset
Purchase Agreement (the "Original Payments") will become due and payable
immediately and the other terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement
will continue in full force and

<PAGE>

                                      - 3 -

effect. In calculating the amounts payable in respect of the Original Payments
following a Breach, Unilens shall be given credit for any amounts that were paid
under section 4 or section 5. However, if Unilens makes both the $50,000 payment
described in section 4 and the $75,000 payment described in section 5, then all
amounts that would otherwise have been due from Unilens to UPI on or before
January 31, 1994, under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement shall be
permanently forgiven. If Unilens fails to timely make either the $50,000 payment
described in section 4 or the $75,000 payment described in section 5, (a) the
Asset Purchase Agreement will continue in full force and effect pursuant to its
terms as to all payments scheduled to be made after the date of the Breach and
(b) UPI may, at any time, file an action (the "Enforcement Action") against
Unilens in the Hillsborough County Court, to recover the full amount of the
Original Payments that would otherwise have accrued or would be due on or before
the date of Unilens' Breach under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement
together with UPI's attorney fees and costs incurred in connection with the
Enforcement Action as described in section 11. Unilens also agrees that for
purposes of the Enforcement Action, the Hillsborough County Circuit Court has
subject matter and personal jurisdiction over the parties and the controversy,
as well as sole venue over the parties. Unilens agrees that, upon filing an
Enforcement Action for any Original Payment on or before January 31, 1994, UPI
shall be entitled to have a judgment in its favour entered against Unilens USA
and Unilens Vision, jointly and severally, upon three days' notice to either
Unilens USA or Unilens Vision, and Unilens hereby waives all defense and
objections to the action. As a condition to entry of judgment, UPI shall file
documents showing that service of process has been perfected on either Unilens
USA or Unilens Vision, and that notice of UPI's application for judgment has
been given, as well as an affidavit stating that Unilens has failed to make
timely one or more of the Forbearance Payments. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, Unilens USA and Unilens Vision expressly agree that effective service
on either Unilens USA or Unilens Vision shall be deemed to be effective service
on both Unilens USA and Unilens Vision, and both Unilens USA and Unilens Vision
expressly agree to the authority of either Unilens USA or Unilens Vision to
accept service of process for both entities as described in the preceding
sentence.

     9.   Dismissal. UPI, Unilens USA and Unilens Vision authorize and direct
their respective counsel to file a stipulation for dismissal of the Litigation
without prejudice (the "Dismissal Stipulation") within ten calendar days after
the Effective Date. The Dismissal Stipulation and proposed order regarding same
will be in substantially the same form as attached to this Agreement as Exhibits
"B" and "C," respectively.

     10.  Voluntary Acceptance of Settlement Agreement. The parties hereto and
signatories hereto and/or their representatives

<PAGE>

                                      - 4 -

who execute this Agreement declare and represent the following: (a) they are
more than eighteen years of age; (b) they are duly authorized and empowered to
enter into this Agreement on behalf of their respective corporations; (c) they
have never been declared incompetent by any court or administrative agency; and
(d) they were not induced to enter into this Agreement by any representations
respecting the nature and extent of any damages, legal liability, or financial
responsibility made by any other party or their representatives.

     11.  Legal Proceedings. Each party to this Agreement shall bear his, her,
or its own costs and attorney fees incurred in connection with the Litigation.
However, in any legal proceeding arising from Unilens' failure to make the
payments described in sections 4 and 5 of this Agreement, the losing party shall
reimburse the prevailing party, on its demand, for all costs and expenses
incurred by the prevailing party as a result of the proceeding, including costs,
expenses, and all reasonable attorney fees, whether incurred before, during, or
after demand or litigation, and whether pursuant to trial, appellate,
arbitration, bankruptcy, or judgement-execution proceedings. Each party to this
Agreement consents to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts
of Hillsborough County, Florida, stipulates that the proper, exclusive, and
convenient venue for any legal proceeding relating to this Agreement or the
Governing Agreements is Hillsborough County, Florida, and waives any defense,
whether asserted by motion or pleading, that Hillsborough County, Florida, is an
improper or inconvenient venue.

     12.  Third Party Rights. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or should be
construed to confer upon, or grant to any person, except the parties to this
Agreement, any claim, right, or remedy under, or because of, either this
Agreement or any provision of it.

     13.  Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and
shall be binding upon, UPI, Unilens USA, Unilens Vision, and their respective
successors, assigns, representatives, directors, officers, employees, and
agents.

     14.  Complete Agreement. The Governing Agreements record the final,
complete and exclusive understandings among the parties regarding the subject
matter of the Governing Agreements, and the Governing Agreements supersede any
prior or contemporaneous agreement, understanding, or representation, oral or
written, by any of the parties, except for the written agreement executed by the
parties.

     15.  Headings: References: Exhibits. The headings preceding the text of the
sections of this Agreement are solely for convenient reference and neither
constitute a part of this

<PAGE>

                                      - 5 -

Agreement nor affect its meaning, interpretation, or effect. Unless otherwise
indicated, all references in this Agreement to a section or an exhibit are to a
section or an exhibit of this Agreement. All exhibits referred to in this
Agreement are an integral part of it and are incorporated by reference in it.

     16.  Waiver, Assignment and Modification. A waiver, amendment, discharge,
extension, termination, or modification of this Agreement will be valid and
effective only if it is in writing and signed by all the parties to this
Agreement. A written waiver by a party of any breach of this Agreement will not
operate as a waiver of any a succeeding breach under the same provision or as a
waiver of the provision itself. No delay or course of dealing by any party will
operate as a waiver of any right, power, or remedy of the party, except to the
extent manifested in writing by the party. This Agreement is not assignable by
any party without the advance written consent of the other party, and any
attempted assignment without the other party's advance written consent will be
invalid and unenforceable against the other party. However, Unilens USA may
assign this Agreement to a purchaser of all or substantially all Unilens USA's
assets or a controlling interest in Unilens USA's stock with the advance written
consent of UPI, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that the
purchaser expressly assumes Unilens USA's obligations under the Governing
Agreements, in writing. Further, Unilens Vision may assign this Agreement to a
purchaser of all or substantially all Unilens Vision's assets or a controlling
interest in Unilens Visions's stock with the advance written consent of UPI,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that the purchaser expressly
assumes Unilens Vision's obligations under the Governing Agreements, in writing.

     17.  Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement
should be construed and interpreted so that it is valid and enforceable under
applicable law. However, if a provision in this Agreement (other than section 8)
is held by a court to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law that
provision will be deemed separable from the remaining provisions of this
Agreement and will not affect the validity, interpretation, or effect of other
provisions of this Agreement or the application of that provision to
circumstances in which it is valid and enforceable.

     18.  Directly and Indirectly. When any provision of this Agreement requires
or prohibits action to be taken by a person, the provision applies regardless of
whether the action is taken directly or indirectly by the person.

     19.  Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, construction, and
enforcement of this Agreement are governed by the laws of the State of Florida
and the United States of America, excluding the laws of those jurisdictions
pertaining to resolution of conflicts with laws of other jurisdictions.

                                      - 6 -

     20.  Certain Words. As used in this Agreement, (a) the word "including" is
always without limitation, (b) words in the singular number include words of the
plural number and vice versa, and (c) the word :person" includes a trust,
corporation, partnership, joint venture, association, unincorporated
organization, public body or authority, and a government or any governmental
body, agency, authority, department, or subdivision, as well as a natural
person.

     21.  Necessary Documents. Unilens and UPI agree that they shall execute,
deliver, and perform every other document that the parties' respective legal
counsel reasonably consider necessary to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Settlement Documents, provided that the requested document
does not enlarge or extend any existing liability or obligation of a party any
new or additional liability or obligation, or require unreasonable effort or
expense on the part of any party, except as provided under the Governing
Agreements.

     22.  Notice. Every notice, consent, or approval required or permitted under
this Agreement will be valid only if it is in writing and delivered personally
or by telex, telecopy, telegram, commercial courier, or first-class, postage
prepaid, United States mail (whether or not certified or registered and
regardless of whether a return receipt is requested or received by the sender),
and addressed by the sender to the other party who is the intended recipient at
its address listed in this Agreement or to such other address as the party may
have designated by notice to the other parties. A validly given notice, consent,
or approval will be effective on the earlier of its receipt, if delivered
personally or by telex, telecopy, telegram, or Postal Service, if delivered by
United States mail. The current mailing addresses and telecopy numbers for UP,
Unilens USA, and Unilens Vision are as follows:

                                   Exhibit "A"

                            STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     This Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") dated July __________,
1993, is executed in Canada by University Patents, Inc. ("UPI"), a Delaware
corporation, Unilens Corp. USA ("Unilens USA"), a Delaware corporation, and
2Unilens Vision Inc. ("Unilens Vision"), a British Columbia corporation formerly
known as Unilens Optical Corp. (together, Unilens USA and Unilens Vision are
referred to in this Agreement22 as "Unilens").

                                   BACKGROUND
                                   ----------

UPI and Unilens are parties to a Settlement Agreement (the "Settlement
Agreement") executed contemporaneously with this Agreement. The Settlement
Agreement provides the terms and conditions for a stipulated dismissal without
prejudice of UPI's litigation against Unilens styled University Patents, Inc.
vs. Unilens Corp. USA and Unilens Vision Inc. Case No. 93-2400, Division A,
pending in the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County, Florida, Civil Division
(the "Court"). Contemporaneously with their execution of the Settlement
Agreement, UPI, and Unilens execute this Agreement to record their exclusive
understandings regarding, (1) the issuance to UPI by Unilens Vision of 275,000
shares of Unilens Vision common stock, no par value (the "Settlement Shares"),
solely in exchange for UPI's execution of the Settlement Documents, (2) Unilens'
option to convert its then outstanding balance of its indebtedness to UPI under
the Governing Agreements (the "Indebtedness") into the common stock of Unilens
USA upon a registered initial public offering of shares of common stock in
Unilens USA in an aggregate amount of at least $2 million U.S. (the "Unilens USA
Shares"), (3) Unilens Vision's option to exchange any marketable securities
that it receives from the sales of a controlling interest in Unilens USA for the
then outstanding balance of the Indebtedness, (4) Unilens' Vision's option to
convert the then outstanding balance of the Indebtedness into common stock in
Unilens Vision; and (5) certain other ancillary transactions described in this
Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
Except as otherwise expressly defined herein, all capitalized terms in this
Agreement have their respective meanings ascribed to those terms in the
Settlement Agreement.

                                 OBJECTIVE TERMS
                                 ---------------

     In consideration of the mutual promises set forth below, and other valuable
consideration, the parties hereto agree:

     1.   Effective Date. This Agreement will become effective, if at all, on
the date (the "Effective Date") that: (1) the issuance of the Settlement Shares
(as defined in this Agreement) is approved by the Vancouver Stock Exchange on
which Unilens Vision's stock is traded, pursuant to the "shares-for-debt"
exemption, without imposing any hold period which would prohibit UPI from
immediately

<PAGE>

                                      - 2 -

transferring the Settlement Shares in Canada on the Vancouver Stock Exchange in
accordance with the rules of the Vancouver Stock Exchange and all applicable
Canadian securities laws, and (2) EBC Zurich AG ("EBC") consents to Unilens
USA's execution of the Settlement Documents. If, however, each of the foregoing
conditions does not occur on or before September 30, 1993, the Settlement
Documents will become permanently void on that date and will never become
effective.

     2.   Acknowledgement of "Shares-for-Stock" Transaction. UPI and Unilens
expressly acknowledge that the Settlement Shares are being issued to UPI in
consideration for indebtedness owed from Unilens to UPI on date this Agreement
is executed. UPI and Unilens further expressly acknowledge that the value of the
Settlement Shares is approximately equivalent to the amount of debt in respect
of which UPI is granting forbearance under the Settlement Documents.

     3.   Issuance of Settlement Shares. On the Effective Date, and subject to
Unilens' representations and warranties set forth below, Unilens Vision shall
issue and deliver to UPI, and UPI shall accept from Unilens Vision, the
Settlement Shares solely in consideration of UPI's execution of the Settlement
Documents. On the Effective Date, Unilens Vision shall issue and deliver the
Settlement Shares to UPI by delivering to Mr. J. Wayne Marsden at the offices of
C.M. Oliver & Co., 750 West Pender Street, Second Floor, Vancouver, British
Columbia, V6C 1B5, a stock certificate or stock certificates evidencing the
Settlement Shares, duly executed by the appropriate officers of Unilens Vision,
in the name of UPI.

     4.   Antidilution Protection. If, at any time subsequent to the date of
this Agreement, Unilens Vision issues common shares, no par value, of its
capital stock ("New Shares") to any person (other than to employees under any
existing or future incentive stock option program) for consideration less than
U.S. $1.25 per share, then Unilens Vision shall issue to UPI a number of common
shares, no par value, ("Antidilution Shares") calculated in accordance with the
following formula:

No. of Shares = (343,750) X (3,032,000 + N) - 275,000 - P
to be issued           3,790,250 + C

where:

"N"  is the total number of shares issued as New Shares (other than shares
     issued to employees under any existing or future incentive stock option
     program) subsequent to the date of this Agreement, up to and including the
     issuance of the New Shares in question;

"C"  is the total consideration in U.S. funds received for all shares issued as
     New Shares (other than shares issued to

<PAGE>

                                      - 3 -

     employees under any existing or future incentive stock option program)
     subsequent to the date of this Agreement, up to and including the issuance
     of the New Shares in question; and

"P"  is the number of Antidilution Shares issued under this section prior to the
     issuance of the New Shares in question.

If the common shares, no par value, of Unilens Vision are split or consolidated,
then the figure of U.S. $1.25 per share, the figures of 343,750 and 275,000 in
the formula set out above, and the amounts calculated as "P" and "N" shall be
adjusted pro rata. If application of the formula set out above produces a
negative number, then no Antidilution Shares shall be issued. For greater
certainty, this section 4 provides antidilution protection in respect of the
Settlement Shares only. It does not, and shall not be construed to, provide any
antilution protection in respect of any shares issued pursuant to the options
contained in sections 7 or 11, below.

     5.   Unilens Vision to Continue Listing on Vancouver Stock Exchange.
Unilens Vision will continue its listing on the Vancouver Stock Exchange until
the earlier of (1) the date that UPI has disposed of all of the Settlement
Shares and (2) the effective date of a registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") relating to an initial public offering
in the United States of either (i) shares of Unilens Vision common stock or (ii)
shares of Unilens USA common stock, if, as a result of a merger, restructuring
or other similar corporate transaction, the Settlement Shares are converted into
shares of Unilens USA common stock. Unilens Vision or Unilens USA, as the case
may be, shall at its own cost register under the 1933 Act, pursuant to such
registration statement, any Settlement Shares which have not been disposed of by
UPI prior to such time, unless the managing underwriter for such initial public
offering objects, in which case Unilens Vision or Unilens USA, as the case may
be, shall at its own cost register such Settlement Shares under the 1933 Act as
promptly as is practicable thereafter under a separate registration statement.

     6.   UPI Acquiring Settlement Shares for Investment Purposes. UPI
represents and warrants to Unilens as follows:

     (a)  UPI understands that (i) the Settlement Shares and Antidilution Shares
to be issued to it pursuant to sections 3 and 4 hereof and any Unilens USA
Shares or other shares of Unilens Vision common stock which may be issued to it
on exercise of the options provided in sections 7 and 11 hereof will not be
registered at the time of issuance under the 1933 Act and may not be registered
under the 1933 Act thereafter (ii) such issuance without registration will be
effected in reliance on available exemptions from such registration and (iii)
such reliance will be based in

<PAGE>

                                      - 4 -

part on the representations and warranties of UPI set forth in this section 6;

     (b)  UPI is acquiring the Settlement Shares and may acquire any Unilens USA
Shares or other shares of Unilens Vision common stock solely for its own
account, for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection
with, any distribution thereof within, or directed to, the United States;

     (c)  Should UPI wish to resell the Settlement Shares, it is the intention
of the parties that the Settlement Shares be resold by UPI through the
facilities of the Vancouver Stock Exchange. UPI agrees that unless and until the
Settlement Shares or any Unilens USA Shares or other shares of Unilens Vision
common stock which UPI may acquire under this Agreement, as the case may be, are
validly registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from such registration is
available for the resale of such securities by UPI in the United States, UPI
shall not sell such securities within or to the United States or knowingly to a
citizen or resident of the United States.

     7.   Option to Convert Indebtedness into Common Stock of Unilens USA or to
Exchange Indebtedness for Marketable Securities. During the period beginning on
the Effective Date and ending on the earlier of June 30, 1998, or the date
Unilens commits a material breach of this Agreement or fails to make a payment
due under the Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Exercise Period"), Unilens USA may,
at its option, but subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
convert the Indebtedness into Unilens USA Shares if Unilens USA successfully
completes an initial registered public offering of its common stock in an
aggregate amount of at least U.S. $2 million in conformity with all applicable
laws. Additionally, during the Exercise Period, Unilens Vision may exchange the
Indebtedness for readily-marketable securities of an unaffiliated, publicly
traded corporation if Unilens Vision sells a controlling interest in the Unilens
USA Shares to an unaffiliated third party, in exchange for readily-marketable
securities of an unaffiliated publicly traded corporation. (For purposes of this
Agreement, the determination whether an entity is "affiliated" with Unilens
Vision will be made in accordance with United States securities laws in effect
on the Effective Date). Unilens USA's conversion or exchange right described in
this section is conditioned upon Unilens' compliance with the terms of the
Governing Agreements.

     8.   Conversion or Exchange Rate. If Unilens USA elects to exercise its
conversion right described in the preceding section, the Indebtedness will be
converted into Unilens USA Shares, in an amount of shares equal to the
Indebtedness Present Value (as defined in section 12, below) on the conversion
date divided by the net price of the shares to the underwriter, if the Unilens
USA

<PAGE>

                                      - 5 -

Shares are sold through an initial public offering in conformity with all
applicable securities laws. The Unilens USA Shares received by UPI will be (at
Unilens' option) either (1) registered for public sale as part of Unilens USA's
initial public offering; or (b) subject to UPI's demand registration rights
described in the following section. If a controlling interest in the Unilens USA
Shares is sold to an unaffiliated third party and Unilens USA elects to exercise
its exchange right described in the preceding section, the Indebtedness may be
exchanged for the same securities of the unaffiliated, publicly traded
corporation at the same rate as that consideration is received by Unilens Vision
and any other existing holders of Unilens USA Shares on the date of the
transaction. However, Unilens may not exercise its conversion or exchange right
described in this Agreement by effectuating a transaction pursuant to which UPI
would receive cash, Unilens USA Shares, or marketable securities of a third
party, with a value of less than the amount of the Indebtedness Present Value.
Moreover, Unilens USA many not sell all or substantially all its assets, and
Unilens Vision may not sell a controlling interest in Unilens USA, unless: (1)
Unilens exercises its conversion option set forth in this Agreement; or (2) the
purchaser expressly assumes Unilens' obligation under the Governing Agreements
(in writing) in conformity with the terms of section 26 of this Agreement.

     9.   Demand Registration Rights. For five years following the date on which
the Indebtedness is converted into Unilens USA Shares, and upon written receipt
from UPI specifying the number of Unilens USA Shares that UPI desires to
register for public sale (the "Registration Shares"), Unilens promptly shall
prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under
the Securities Act of 1993 ("the Act") a registration statement covering a
public offering of the Registration Shares and shall use its best efforts to
cause the registration statement to become effective as soon as is practicable.
UPI shall pay all costs and expenses incident to UPI's demand registration. If
Unilens is required to register any of the Unilens USA Shares pursuant to this
Agreement, it shall: (1) not grant to anyone any registration rights of any
kind, other than registration rights that are on parity with, or subordinate to,
the registration rights granted to UPI in this Agreement; (2) keep the
registration statement current and effective until the date UPI notifies Unilens
that all the Unilens USA Shares included in the registration statement have been
sold; (3) immediately amend or supplement the prospectus upon notice from UPI
that the amendment or supplement is necessary to make the prospectus not
misleading; (4) promptly file all documents required to be filed by it with the
SEC; (5) refrain from filing any document with the SEC if it does not comply
with the Act; (6) upon UPI's request, furnish to UPI two complete copies of the
registration statement and any prospectus; (7) upon UPI's request, take all
action necessary to qualify any Unilens USA Shares included in the registration
for offer and sale under the "blue sky" or securities laws of those states that
UPI designates in

<PAGE>

                                      - 6 -

writing; (8) promptly notify UPI in writing of Unilens' communications with the
SEC; and (9) use its best efforts to prevent or obviate a stop order from the
SEC suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement.

     10.  Exercise of Conversion or Exchange Right. To exercise its conversion
or exchange right set forth in sections 7 to 9 above, Unilens must use its best
efforts to perform each of the following steps during the period of time
specified for their performance: (1) between 7 and 60 calendar days preceding
the event giving rise to Unilens' exercise of the conversion or exercise option,
notify UPI in writing, setting forth: (a) the pendency of the proposed
transaction; (b) the substantive terms of the proposed transaction; (c) the
anticipated consideration to be received for the Indebtedness; and (d) a
statement, signed by authorized representatives of Unilens USA and Unilens
Vision, certifying that Unilens USA and Unilens Vision have complied with each
of their respective obligations under the Governing Agreements; and (2) within
approximately ten calendar days following the effectuation of the transaction
giving rise to the conversion feature, again notify UPI in writing, setting
forth: (a) the date of effectuation of the transaction; (b) the substantive
terms of the transaction; (c) the actual consideration to be received by UPI for
the Indebtedness; and (d) a statement, signed by authorized representatives of
Unilens USA and Unilens Vision, certifying that Unilens USA and Unilens Vision
have complied with each of their respective obligations under the Governing
Agreements: Unilens must then deliver to UPI, concurrently with the written
notice described in the preceding sentence (and in any event within ten calendar
days following the effectuation of the transaction giving rise to the
conversion) the consideration into which the Indebtedness has been converted.

     11.  Option to Convert Indebtedness into Common Stock of Unilens Vision. At
any time during the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the
earlier of June 30, 1998 or the date Unilens commits a material breach of this
Agreement or fails to make a payment due under the Asset Purchase Agreement (the
"Exercise Period"), Unilens Vision may at its option, by written notice to UPI,
convert the Indebtedness into Unilens Vision common stock, no par value. The
date upon which written notice is delivered by Unilens Vision to UPI pursuant to
this section is referred to as the "Notice Date". Unilens Vision may only
exercise its right of conversion under this section if, at the time, its shares
are listed for trading on a Recognized Stock Exchange. The term "Recognized
Stock Exchange" includes the Vancouver Stock Exchange, the Toronto Stock
Exchange, NASDAQ and any over-the-counter exchange in the United States.

     12.  Conversion Rate for Unilens Vision Common Stock. If Unilens Vision
elects to exercise its conversion right as set out in section 11, the
Indebtedness will be converted into Unilens

<PAGE>

                                      - 7 -

Vision common shares, no par value, in an amount of shares equal to the
Indebtedness Present Value on the Notice Date divided by the average public
trading price of Unilens Vision shares during the period of ten trading days
preceding the Notice Date. The "Indebtedness Present Value" shall be equal to
the discounted present value of the remaining payments under sub-section 1.4(b)
of the Asset Purchase Agreement. In calculating the Indebtedness Present Value,
a discount rate of 10% shall be used, and the calculation shall be made on the
basis that the outstanding balance under sub-section 1.4(b) of the Asset
Purchase Agreement would be repaid in annual instalments of $250,000.00 as set
forth in subsection 1.4(b) of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

     13.  Exercise of Conversion Right for Unilens Common Stock. If Unilens
Vision elects to exercise its conversion right as set out in section 11, then
(1) Unilens Vision shall forthwith and diligently apply for the approval of any
regulatory authorities whose approval is required for Unilens Vision to exercise
its right of conversion, (2) Unilens Vision shall forthwith and diligently
proceed with any statutory and regulatory filings required in connection with
the exercise of its right of conversion, (3) UPI shall cooperate fully and
diligently with the efforts of Unilens Vision in seeking required regulatory
approvals as referred to above and in completing any required statutory and
regulatory filings as referred to above, and (4) as soon as practicable
following completion of required approvals and filings, if any, referred to
herein, Unilens Vision shall issue to UPI the number of common shares, no par
value, in Unilens Vision calculated in accordance with section 12.

     14.  Demand Registration of Unilens Vision Stock. For five years following
the date on which the Indebtedness is converted into Unilens Vision shares (the
"Conversion Shares") pursuant to sections 11 through 13 of this Agreement, UPI
may give notice to Unilens Vision specifying a number of Conversion Shares that
UPI wishes to qualify for public sale. If, at the time of such notice, Unilens
Vision stock is trading on the Vancouver Stock Exchange, UPI may by such notice
require that Unilens Vision, at the cost and expense of UPI, take steps to
qualify the specified number of Conversion Shares for sale to the public through
the facilities of the Vancouver Stock Exchange. Upon receipt of such notice,
Unilens Vision shall use its best effort to complete the filing of a prospectus
or statement of material facts, or carry out such other steps as may be
necessary, to qualify the specified number of Conversion Shares for sale to the
public through the facilities of the Vancouver Stock Exchange. All costs and
expenses in connection with the steps taken to qualify the Conversion Shares for
sale shall be born by UPI. If, at the time of the notice given by UPI under this
section, Unilens Vision shares are not trading on the Vancouver Stock Exchange,
then UPI may by its notice require that Unilens Vision, at the cost and expense
of UPI, use its best efforts to qualify the specified number of Conversion
Shares for

<PAGE>

                                      - 8 -

sale under American securities laws following the procedures set out in section
9 hereof. All costs and expenses in connection with such procedures shall be
born by UPI.

<PAGE>

                                     - 12 -

USA Shares or Settlement Shares by any person other than Unilens.

     20.  Continued Effect of Asset Purchase Agreement. The Asset Purchase

payments scheduled to be made by Unilens to UPI on January 31, 1996, and

party shall reimburse the prevailing party, on its demand, for all costs and
expenses incurred by the prevailing party as a result of the proceeding,
including costs, expenses, and all reasonable attorney fees, whether incurred
before, during, or after demand or litigation, and whether pursuant to trial,
appellate, arbitration, bankruptcy, or judgment-execution proceedings. Each
party to this Agreement consents to the personal jurisdiction of the state and
federal courts of Hillsborough County, Florida, stipulates that the proper,
exclusive, and convenient venue for any legal proceedings relating to the

any defense, whether asserted by motion or pleading, that Hillsborough County,
Florida, is an improper or inconvenient venue.

     22.  Third Party Rights. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or should be
construed to confer upon, or grant to any person, except the parties to this
Agreement, any claim, right, or remedy under, or because of, either this
Agreement or any provision of it.

     23.  Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and
shall be binding upon, UPI, Unilens USA, Unilens Vision, and their respective
successors, assigns, representatives, directors, officers, employees, attorneys,

     24.  Complete Agreement. The Governing Agreements record the final,
complete, and exclusive understandings among the parties regarding the subject
matter of the Governing Agreements, and the Governing Agreements supersede any
prior or contemporaneous agreement, understanding, or representation, oral or
written, by any of the parties.

the text of the sections of this Agreement are solely for convenient reference
and neither constitute a part of this Agreement nor affect its meaning,
interpretation, or effect. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all references
in this Agreement to a section or an exhibit are to a section or an exhibit of
this Agreement. All exhibits referred to in this Agreement are an integral part
of it and are incorporated by reference in it.

     26.  Waiver, Assignment and Modification. A waiver, amendment, discharge,
extension, termination, or modification of this Agreement will be valid and
effective only if it is in writing and signed by all the parties to this
Agreement. A written waiver by a party of any breach of this Agreement will not
operate as a waiver of any succeeding breach under the same provision or as a
waiver of the provision itself. No delay or course of dealing by any party will
operate as a waiver of any right, power, or remedy of the party, except to the
extent manifested in writing by the party. This Agreement is not assignable by
any party without the other party's advance written consent will be invalid and
unenforceable against the other party. However, Unilens may assign this
Agreement to a purchaser of all or substantially all Unilens USA's stock or
assets with the advance written consent of UPI which shall not be unreasonably
withheld, and provided that the purchaser expressly assumes Unilens USA's
obligations under the Governing Agreement, in writing. Further, Unilens Vision
may assign this Agreement to a purchaser of all or substantially all Unilens
Visions's stock or assets with the advance written consent of UPI, shall not be
unreasonably withheld, provided that the purchaser expressly assumes Unilens
Vision's obligations under the Governing Agreements, in writing.

     27.  Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement
should be construed and interpreted so that it is valid and enforceable under
applicable law. However, if a provision in this Agreement is held by a court to
be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, that provision will be deemed
separable from the remaining provisions of this Agreement and will not affect
the validity, interpretation, or effect of other provisions of this Agreement or
the application of that provision to circumstances in which it is valid and
enforceable.

     28.  Directly and Indirectly. When any provision of this Agreement requires
or prohibits action to be taken by a person, the provision applies regardless of
whether the action is taken directly or indirectly by the person.

     29.  Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, construction, and
enforcement of this Agreement are governed by the laws of the State of Florida
and the United States of America, excluding the laws of those jurisdictions
pertaining to resolution of conflicts with laws of other jurisdictions.

plural number and vice versa, and (c) the word "person" includes a trust,
corporation, partnership, joint venture, association, unincorporated

     31.  Necessary Documents. Unilens and UPI agree that they shall execute,
deliver, and perform every other document that the parties' respective legal
counsel reasonably consider necessary to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Settlement Documents provided that the requested document
does not enlarge or extend any existing liability or obligation of a party,
impose on a party an new or additional liability or obligation, or require
unreasonable effort or expense on the part of any party.

this Agreement will be valid only if it is in writing and delivered personally

prepaid, United States mail (whether or not certified or registered and

its address listed in this Agreement or to such other address as the party may
have designated by notice to the other parties. A validly given notice, consent,
