as defined by federal law.

                          PROPERTY CONDITION

6. LAND USE: Seller will deliver the Property to Buyer at the time
agreed in its present "as is" condition, with conditions resulting
from Buyer's Inspections and casualty damage, if any, excepted.
Seller will maintain the landscaping and grounds in a comparable
condition and will not engage in or permit any activity that would
materially alter the Property's condition without the Buyer's prior
written consent.
(a) Flood Zone: Buyer is advised to verify by survey, with the
lender and with appropriate government agencies which flood zone the
Property is in, whether flood insurance is required and what
restrictions apply to improving the Property and rebuilding in the
event of casualty.
(b) Government Regulation: Buyer is advised that changes in
government regulations and levels of service which affect Buyer's
intended use of the Property will not be grounds for Canceling this
Contract if the Feasibility Study Period has expired or if Buyer has
checked choice (c)(2) below.
(c) Inspections: (check (1) or (2) below)
(x)(1) Feasibility Study: Buyer will, at Buyer's expense and within
245 days from Effective Date ("Feasibility Study Period"), determine
whether the Property is suitable, in Buyer's sole and absolute
discretion, for Developmental use.  During the Feasibility Study
Period, Buyer may conduct a Phase I environmental assessment and any
other tests, Analyses, surveys and investigations ("Inspections")
that Buyer deems necessary to determine to Buyer's satisfaction the
Property's engineering, architectural and environmental properties;
zoning and zoning restrictions; subdivision statutes; soil and
grade; availability of access to public roads, water, and other
utilities; consistency with local, state and regional growth
management plans; availability of permits, government approvals, and
licenses; and other Inspections that Buyer deems appropriate to
determine the Property's suitability for the Buyer's intended use.
If the Property must be rezoned, Buyer will obtain the rezoning from
the appropriate government agencies.  Seller will sign all documents
Buyer is required to file in connection with development or rezoning
approvals.

Seller gives Buyer, its agents, contractors and assigns, the right
to enter the Property at any time during the Feasibility Study
Period for the purpose of conducting Inspections; provided, however,
that Buyer, its agents, contractors and assigns enter the Property
and conduct Inspections at their own risk.  Buyer will indemnify and
hold Seller harmless from losses, damages, costs, claims and
expenses of any nature, including attorney's fees, expenses and
liability incurred in application for rezoning or related
proceedings, and from liability to any person, arising from the
conduct of any and all Inspections or any work authorized by Buyer.
Buyer will not engage in any activity that could result in a
construction lien being filed against the Property without Seller's
prior written consent.  If this transaction does not close, Buyer
will, at Buyer's expense, (1) repair all damages to the Property
resulting from the Inspections and return the Property to the
condition it was in prior to conduct of the Inspections, and (2)
release to Seller all reports and other work generated as a result
of the Inspections.

     Buyer will deliver written notice to Seller prior to the
expiration of the Feasibility Study Period of Buyer's determination
of whether or not the Property is acceptable.  Buyer's failure to
comply with this notice requirement will constitute acceptance of
the Property as suitable for Buyer's intended use in its "as is"
condition.  If the Property is unacceptable to Buyer and written
notice of this fact is timely delivered to Seller, this Contract
will be deemed terminated as of the day after the Feasibility Study
period ends and Buyer's deposit(s) will be returned after Escrow
Agent receives proper authorization from all interested parties.

( ) (2) No Feasibility Study: Buyer is satisfied that the Property
is suitable for Buyer's purposes, including being satisfied that
either public sewerage and water are available to the Property or
the Property will be approved for the installation of a well and/or
private sewerage disposal system and that existing zoning and other
pertinent regulations and restrictions, such as subdivision or deed
restrictions, concurrency, growth management and environmental
conditions, are acceptable to Buyer.  This Contract is not
contingent on Buyer conducting any further investigations.

7. RISK OF LOSS; EMINENT DOMAIN: If any portion of the Property is
materially damaged by casualty before closing, or Seller negotiates
with a governmental authority to transfer all or part of the
Property in lieu of eminent domain proceedings, or if an eminent
domain proceeding is initiated, Seller will promptly inform Buyer.
Either party may cancel this Contract by written notice to the other
within 10 days from Buyer's receipt of Seller's notification,
failing which Buyer will close in accordance with this Contract and
receive all payments made by the government authority or insurance
company, if any.

                                TITLE

8. TITLE: Seller will convey marketable title to the Property by

guardian deed as appropriate to Seller's status.
(a) Title Evidence: Title evidence will show legal access to the
Property and marketable title of record in Seller in accordance with
current title standards adopted by the Florida Bar, subject only to
the following title exceptions, none of which prevent Buyer's
intended use of the Property as Developmental: covenants, easements
and restrictions of record; matters of plat; existing zoning and
government regulations; oil, gas and mineral rights of record if
there is no right of entry; current taxes; mortgages that Buyer will
assume; and encumbrances that mortgages that Seller will discharge
at or before closing.  Seller will, prior to closing, deliver to
Buyer Seller's choice of one of the following types of title
evidence, which must be generally accepted in the county where the
Property is located (specify in Paragraph 5(c) the selected type).
Seller will use option (1) in Palm Beach County and option
(2) in Dade County.
(1)  A title insurance commitment issued by a Florida-licensed title
insurer in the amount of the purchase price and subject only to
title exceptions set forth in this Contract.
(2)  An existing abstract of title from a reputable and existing
abstract firm (if firm is not existing, then abstract must be
certified as correct by an existing firm) purporting to be an
accurate synopsis of the instruments affecting title to the Property
recorded in the public records of the county where the Property is
located and certified to Effective Date.  However if such an
abstract is not available to Seller, then a prior owner's title
policy acceptable to the proposed insurer as a base for re-issuance
of coverage.  Seller will pay for copies of all policy exceptions
and an update in a format acceptable to Buyer's closing agent from
the policy effective date and certified to Buyer or Buyer's closing
agent, together with copies of all documents recited in the prior
policy and in the update.  If a prior policy is not available to
Seller then (1) above will be the title evidence.  Title evidence
will be delivered no later than 10 days before Closing Date.

(b) Title Examination: Buyer will examine the title evidence and
deliver written notice to Seller, within 5 days from receipt of
title evidence but no later than closing, of any defects that make
the title unmarketable.  Seller will have 30 days from receipt of
Buyer's notice of defects ("Curative Period") to cure the defects at
Seller's expense.  If Seller cures the defects within the Curative
Period, Seller will deliver written notice to Buyer and the parties
will close the transaction on Closing Date or within 10 days from
Buyer's receipt of Seller's notice if Closing Date has passed.  If
Seller is unable to cure the defects within the Curative Period,
Seller will deliver written notice to Buyer and Buyer will, within
10 days from receipt of Seller's notice, either cancel this Contract
or accept title with existing defects and close the transaction.

(c) Survey: Buyer may, prior to Closing Date and at Buyer's expense,
have the Property surveyed and deliver written notice to Seller,
within 5 days from receipt of survey but no later than closing, of
any encroachments on the Property, encroachments by the Property's
improvements on other lands or deed restriction o zoning violations.
Any such encroachment or violation will be treated in the same
manner as a title defect and Buyer's and Seller's obligations will
be determined in accordance with subparagraph (b) above.  If any
part of the Property lies seaward of the coastal construction
control line, Seller will provide Buyer with an affidavit or survey
as required by law delineating the line's location on the property,
unless Buyer waives this requirement in writing.

                            MISCELLANEOUS

9. EFFECTIVE DATE; TIME:  The "Effective Date" of this Contract is
the date on which the last of the parties initials or signs the
latest offer.  Time is of the essence for all provisions of this
Contract.  All time periods expressed as days will be computed in

falls on a Saturday, Sunday or national legal holiday, performance

5:00 p.m. local time (meaning in the county where the Property is
located) of the appropriate day.

10. NOTICES: All notices will be made to the parties and Broker by
mail, personal delivery or electronic media.  Buyer's failure to

if the contingency did not exist.

11. COMPLETE AGREEMENT: This Contract is the entire agreement
between Buyer and Seller.  Except for brokerage agreements, no prior
or present agreements will bind Buyer, Seller or Broker unless

this Contract, counterparts and written modifications communicated
electronically or on paper will be acceptable for all purposes,
including delivery, and will be binding.  Handwritten or typewritten

invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions will continue to
be fully effective.  This Contract will not be recorded in any
public records.

13. DEFAULT: (a) Seller Default: If for any reason other than
failure of Seller to make Seller's title marketable after diligent
effort, Seller fails,  refuses or neglects to perform  this
Contract, Buyer may choose to receive a return of Buyer's deposit
without having the right to seek damages or to seek specific
performance as per Paragraph 16.  Seller will also be liable to
Broker for the full amount of the brokerage fee. (b) Buyer Default:
If Buyer fails to perform this Contract within the time specified,
including timely payment of all deposits, Seller may choose to
retain and collect all deposits paid and agreed to be paid as
liquidated damages or to seek specific performance as per Paragraph
16; and Broker will, upon demand, receive 50% of all deposits paid
and agreed to be paid (to be split equally among cooperating

14. DISPUTE RESOLUTION: This Contract will be construed under
Florida law.  All controversies, claims, and other matters in
question between the parties arising out of or relating to this
Contract or its breach will be settled as follows:

(a) Disputes concerning entitlement to deposits made and agreed to
be made: Buyer and Seller will have 30 days from the date
conflicting demands are made to attempt to resolve the dispute
through mediation.  If that fails, Escrow Agent will submit the
dispute, if so required by Florida law, to Escrow Agent's choice of
arbitration, a Florida court or the Florida Real Estate Commission.
Buyer and Seller will be bound by any resulting settlement or order.

(b) All other disputes: Buyer and Seller will have 30 days from the
date a dispute arises between them to attempt to resolve the matter
through mediation, failing which the parties will resolve the
dispute through neutral binding arbitration in the county where the
Property is located.  The arbitrator may not after the Contract
terms or award any remedy not provided for in this Contract.  The
award will be based on the greater weight of the evidence and will
state findings of fact and the contractual authority on which it is
based.  If the parties agree to use discovery, it will be in
accordance with the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and the
arbitrator will resolve all discovery-related disputes.  Any
disputes with a real estate licensee named in Paragraph 17 will be
submitted to arbitration only if the licensee's broker consents in
writing to become a party to the proceeding.  This clause will
survive closing.

(c) Mediation and Arbitration; Expenses: "Mediation" is a process in
which parties attempt to resolve a dispute by submitting it to an
impartial mediator who facilitates the resolution of the dispute but
who is not empowered to impose a settlement on the parties.
Mediation will be in accordance with the rules of the American
Mediation Association or other mediator agreed on by the parties.
The parties will equally divide the mediation fee, if any.
"Arbitration" is a process in which the parties resolve a dispute by
a hearing before a neutral person who decides the matter and whose
decision is binding on the parties.  Arbitration will be in
accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association or
other arbitrator agreed on by the parties.  Each party to any
arbitration will pay its own fees, costs and expenses, including
attorneys' fees, and will equally split the arbitrators' fees and
administrative fees of arbitration.  In a civil action to enforce an
arbitration award, the prevailing party to the arbitration shall be
entitled to recover from the non prevailing party reasonable
attorneys' fees, costs and expenses.

                       ESCROW AGENT AND BROKER

15. ESCROW AGENT: Buyer and Seller authorize Escrow Agent to
receive, deposit and hold funds and other items in escrow and,
subject to clearance, disburse them upon proper authorization and in
accordance with the terms of this Contract, including disbursing
brokerage fees.  The parties agree that Escrow Agent will not be
liable to any person for misdelivery of escrowed items to Buyer or
Seller, unless the misdelivery is due to Escrow Agent's willful
breach of this Contract or gross negligence.  If Escrow Agent
interpleads the subject matter of the escrow, Escrow Agent will pay
the filing fees and costs from the deposit and will recover
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs to be paid from the escrowed
funds or equivalent and charged and awarded as court costs in favor
of the prevailing party.  All claims against Escrow Agent will be
arbitrated, so long as Escrow Agent consents to arbitrate.

16. PROFESSIONAL ADVICE; BROKER LIABILITY: Broker advises Buyer and
Seller to verify all facts and representations that are important to
them and to consult an appropriate professional for legal advice
(for example, interpreting contracts, determining the effect of laws
on the Property and transaction, status of title, foreign investor
reporting requirements, etc.) and for tax, property condition,
environmental and other specialized advice. Buyer acknowledges that
Broker does not reside in the Property and that all representations
(oral, written or otherwise) by Broker are based on Seller
representations or public records unless Broker indicates personal
verification of the representation. Buyer agrees to rely solely on
Seller, professional inspectors and governmental agencies for
verification of the Property condition and facts that materially
affect Property value. Buyer and Seller respectively will pay all
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees at all
levels, incurred by Broker and Broker's officers, directors, agents
and employees in connection with or arising from Buyer's or Seller's
 misstatement or failure to perform contractual obligations. Buyer
and Seller hold harmless and release Broker and Broker's officers,
directors, agents and employees from all liability for loss or
damage based on  (1) Buyer's or Seller's misstatement or failure to
perform contractual obligations;  (2) Broker's performance, at
Buyer's and/or Seller's request, of any task beyond the scope of
services regulated by Chapter 475, F.S., as amended, including
Broker's referral, recommendation or retention of any vendor, (3)
products or services provided by any vendor; and (4) expenses

              ADDENDUM TO CONTRACT FOR SALE AND PURCHASE

In reference to Contract dated ___________________________ between
BIGHAM FARMS INC., a Florida corporation, ("SELLER") and SOLOMAN
LAM, ("BUYER"), it is further AGREED as FOLLOWS:

1.   All land to be acquired for the widening of County Road 468 or
for any interchange to be constructed for the Florida Turnpike is
specifically excluded from this Contract and Seller shall have the
sole right and authority to sell or donate said land to the
appropriate government entity should that become necessary during
the contract period.  In that event, all monies from any sale shall
be the sole property of Seller and the legal description and
purchase price shall be revised to reflect the deletion of the land
sold or donated.

2.   Any and all deposits received under paragraph 2 shall be
non-refundable to the purchaser, but shall be applied to the
purchase price at closing.  Should the Contract not close for any
reason, including all contingencies, other then the default of
Seller, all such monies deposited shall become the sole and absolute
property of the Seller as and for liquidated damages for removing
the property from the market for the contract period.  This Contract
is subject to a feasibility study for a period of 245 days from the
effective date.  That feasibility study is outlined in paragraph
6(c), but it is hereby acknowledged by both the Buyer and Seller
that this Contract is not contingent upon the Buyer receiving any
permits, development of regional impact

<PAGE>

approval, comprehensive plan amendment approval, Southwest Florida
Water Management approval, Department of Environmental approval or
any other approvals.  The only contingency shall be obtaining
rezoning of the property within to feasibility study period.

3.   The closing date for this Contract shall be on or before
September 1, 2001.  That closing date shall not be affected by the
feasibility study or any other contingencies to this Contract.  If
any contingencies are not met by September 1, 2001, this Contract
shall then become null and void at the option of either party.

4.   Seller is contemplating the sale of this property as an
Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 Exchange with Seller locating
"replacement property " under such code.  Buyer agrees to cooperate
with Seller to effectuate the acquisition of replacement property,
with all additional costs attributable to the tax deferred exchange
to be the responsibility of the Seller.  Buyer understands that the
Internal Revenue Service imposes strict time limitations on tax
deferred exchanges and therefore agrees that time shall be of the
essence of this agreement and any contract entered into subsequently
by the parties.  Buyer further understands that to carry out the
intent of the Seller regarding a tax deferred exchange, certain
rights and obligations of the Seller may be assigned to a Qualified
Intermediary and Buyer agrees to cooperate in such assignment at no
expense to Buyer.  In the event Seller

<PAGE>

cannot find suitable property by the end of the feasibility study
period, then Seller shall have the option of canceling this
Contract.

This addendum, upon its execution by both parties, is herewith made
an integral part of the aforementioned Contract.

6. LAND USE: Seller will deliver the Property to Buyer at the time
agreed in its present "as is" condition, with conditions resulting
from Buyer's Inspections and casualty damage, if any, excepted.
Seller will maintain the landscaping and grounds in a comparable
condition and will not engage in or permit any activity that would
materially alter the Property's condition without the Buyer's prior
written consent.
(a) Flood Zone: Buyer is advised to verify by survey, with the
lender and with appropriate government agencies which flood zone the
Property is in, whether flood insurance is required and what
restrictions apply to improving the Property and rebuilding in the
event of casualty.
(b) Government Regulation: Buyer is advised that changes in
    government regulations and levels of service which affect
    Buyer's intended use of the Property will not be grounds for
    Canceling this Contract if the Feasibility Study Period has
    expired or if Buyer has checked choice (c)(2) below.
(c) Inspections: (check (1) or (2) below)
    (x)(1) Feasibility Study: Buyer will, at Buyer's expense and
    within 245 days from Effective Date ("Feasibility Study Period"),
    determine whether the Property is suitable, in Buyer's sole and
    absolute discretion, for Developmental use.  During the
    Feasibility Study Period, Buyer may conduct a Phase I
    environmental assessment and any other tests, Analyses, surveys
    and investigations ("Inspections") that Buyer deems necessary to
    determine to Buyer's satisfaction the Property's engineering,
    architectural and environmental properties; zoning and zoning
    restrictions; subdivision statutes; soil and grade; availability
    of access to public roads, water, and other utilities;
    consistency with local, state and regional growth management

    determine the Property's suitability for the Buyer's intended use.
    If the Property must be rezoned, Buyer will obtain the rezoning
    from the appropriate government agencies.  Seller will sign all
    documents Buyer is required to file in connection with development
    or rezoning approvals.

    Seller gives Buyer, its agents, contractors and assigns, the right
    to enter the Property at any time during the Feasibility Study
    Period for the purpose of conducting Inspections; provided,
    however, that Buyer, its agents, contractors and assigns enter the
    Property and conduct Inspections at their own risk.  Buyer will
    indemnify and hold Seller harmless from losses, damages, costs,
    claims and expenses of any nature, including attorney's fees,
    expenses and liability incurred in application for rezoning or
    related proceedings, and from liability to any person, arising

    the Property resulting from the Inspections and return the

    expiration of the Feasibility Study Period of Buyer's
    determination of whether or not the Property is acceptable.
    Buyer's failure to comply with this notice requirement will
    constitute acceptance of the Property as suitable for Buyer's
    intended use in its "as is" condition.  If the Property is
    unacceptable to Buyer and written notice of this fact is timely
    delivered to Seller, this Contract will be deemed terminated as
    of the day after the Feasibility Study period ends and Buyer's
    deposit(s) will be returned after Escrow Agent receives proper
    authorization from all interested parties.

    ( ) (2) No Feasibility Study: Buyer is satisfied that the

    and that existing zoning and other pertinent regulations and
    restrictions, such as subdivision or deed restrictions,
    concurrency, growth management and environmental conditions, are
    acceptable to Buyer.  This Contract is not contingent on Buyer
    conducting any further investigations.

7. RISK OF LOSS; EMINENT DOMAIN: If any portion of the Property is
   materially damaged by casualty before closing, or Seller
   negotiates with a governmental authority to transfer all or part
   of the Property in lieu of eminent domain proceedings, or if an
   eminent domain proceeding is initiated, Seller will promptly
   inform Buyer.  Either party may cancel this Contract by written
   notice to the other within 10 days from Buyer's receipt of
   Seller's notification, failing which Buyer will close in
   accordance with this Contract and receive all payments made by
   the government authority or insurance company, if any.

      accordance with current title standards adopted by the
      Florida Bar, subject only to the following title exceptions,
      none of which prevent Buyer's intended use of the Property as
      Developmental: covenants, easements and restrictions of
      record; matters of plat; existing zoning and government
      regulations; oil, gas and mineral rights of record if there is
      no right of entry; current taxes; mortgages that Buyer will
      assume; and encumbrances that mortgages that Seller will
      discharge at or before closing.  Seller will, prior to
      closing, deliver to Buyer Seller's choice of one of the
      following types of title evidence, which must be generally
      accepted in the county where the Property is located (specify
      in Paragraph 5(c) the selected type).  Seller will use option
      (1) in Palm Beach County and option (2) in Dade County.
         (1)  A title insurance commitment issued by a
         Florida-licensed title insurer in the amount of the
         purchase price and subject only to title exceptions set
         forth in this Contract.
         (2)  An existing abstract of title from a reputable and
         existing abstract firm (if firm is not existing, then
         abstract must be certified as correct by an existing firm)
         purporting to be an accurate synopsis of the instruments
         affecting title to the Property recorded in the public
         records of the county where the Property is located and
         certified to Effective Date.  However if such an abstract
         is not available to Seller, then a prior owner's title
         policy acceptable to the proposed insurer as a base for
         re-issuance of coverage.  Seller will pay for copies of
         all policy exceptions and an update in a format acceptable
         to Buyer's closing agent from the policy effective date
         and certified to Buyer or Buyer's closing agent, together
         with copies of all documents recited in the prior policy
         and in the update.  If a prior policy is not available to
         Seller then (1) above will be the title evidence.  Title
         evidence will be delivered no later than 10 days before
         Closing Date.

(b) Title Examination: Buyer will examine the title evidence and
deliver written notice to Seller, within 5 days from receipt of
title evidence but no later than closing, of any defects that make
the title unmarketable.  Seller will have 30 days from receipt of
Buyer's notice of defects ("Curative Period") to cure the defects at
Seller's expense.  If Seller cures the defects within the Curative
Period, Seller will deliver written notice to Buyer and the parties
will close the transaction on Closing Date or within 10 days from
Buyer's receipt of Seller's notice if Closing Date has passed.  If
Seller is unable to cure the defects within the Curative Period,
Seller will deliver written notice to Buyer and Buyer will, within
10 days from receipt of Seller's notice, either cancel this Contract
or accept title with existing defects and close the transaction.

(c) Survey: Buyer may, prior to Closing Date and at Buyer's expense,
have the Property surveyed and deliver written notice to Seller,
within 5 days from receipt of survey but no later than closing, of
any encroachments on the Property, encroachments by the Property's
improvements on other lands or deed restriction o zoning violations.
Any such encroachment or violation will be treated in the same
manner as a title defect and Buyer's and Seller's obligations will
be determined in accordance with subparagraph (b) above.  If any
part of the Property lies seaward of the coastal construction
control line, Seller will provide Buyer with an affidavit or survey
as required by law delineating the line's location on the property,
unless Buyer waives this requirement in writing.

                           MISCELLANEOUS

the date on which the last of the parties initials or signs the
latest offer.  Time is of the essence for all provisions of this
Contract.  All time periods expressed as days will be computed in

5:00 p.m. local time (meaning in the county where the Property is

10. NOTICES: All notices will be made to the parties and Broker by
mail, personal delivery or electronic media.  Buyer's failure to
deliver timely written notice to Seller, when such notice is
required by this Contract, regarding any contingencies will render
that contingency null and void and the Contract will be construed as
if the contingency did not exist.

11. COMPLETE AGREEMENT: This Contract is the entire agreement
between Buyer and Seller.  Except for brokerage agreements, no prior
or present agreements will bind Buyer, Seller or Broker unless
incorporated into this Contract.  Modifications of this Contract

without having the right to seek damages or to seek specific
performance as per Paragraph 16.  Seller will also be liable to
Broker for the full amount of the brokerage fee. (b) Buyer Default:
If Buyer fails to perform this Contract within the time specified,
including timely payment of all deposits, Seller may choose to
retain and collect all deposits paid and agreed to be paid as
liquidated damages or to seek specific performance as per Paragraph
16; and Broker will, upon demand, receive 50% of all deposits paid
and agreed to be paid (to be split equally among cooperating
brokers) up to the full amount of the brokerage fee.

14. DISPUTE RESOLUTION: This Contract will be construed under
Florida law.  All controversies, claims, and other matters in
question between the parties arising out of or relating to this
Contract or its breach will be settled as follows:

(a) Disputes concerning entitlement to deposits made and agreed to
be made: Buyer and Seller will have 30 days from the date
conflicting demands are made to attempt to resolve the dispute
through mediation.  If that fails, Escrow Agent will submit the
dispute, if so required by Florida law, to Escrow Agent's choice of
arbitration, a Florida court or the Florida Real Estate Commission.
Buyer and Seller will be bound by any resulting settlement or order.

(b) All other disputes: Buyer and Seller will have 30 days from the
date a dispute arises between them to attempt to resolve the matter
through mediation, failing which the parties will resolve the
dispute through neutral binding arbitration in the county where the
Property is located.  The arbitrator may not after the Contract
terms or award any remedy not provided for in this Contract.  The
award will be based on the greater weight of the evidence and will
state findings of fact and the contractual authority on which it is
based.  If the parties agree to use discovery, it will be in
accordance with the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and the
arbitrator will resolve all discovery-related disputes.  Any
disputes with a real estate licensee named in Paragraph 17 will be
submitted to arbitration only if the licensee's broker consents in
writing to become a party to the proceeding.  This clause will
survive closing.

(c) Mediation and Arbitration; Expenses: "Mediation" is a process in
which parties attempt to resolve a dispute by submitting it to an
impartial mediator who facilitates the resolution of the dispute but
who is not empowered to impose a settlement on the parties.
Mediation will be in accordance with the rules of the American
Mediation Association or other mediator agreed on by the parties.
The parties will equally divide the mediation fee, if any.
"Arbitration" is a process in which the parties resolve a dispute by
a hearing before a neutral person who decides the matter and whose
decision is binding on the parties.  Arbitration will be in
accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association or
other arbitrator agreed on by the parties.  Each party to any
arbitration will pay its own fees, costs and expenses, including
attorneys' fees, and will equally split the arbitrators' fees and
administrative fees of arbitration.  In a civil action to enforce an
arbitration award, the prevailing party to the arbitration shall be
entitled to recover from the non prevailing party reasonable
attorneys' fees, costs and expenses.

                     ESCROW AGENT AND BROKER

15. ESCROW AGENT: Buyer and Seller authorize Escrow Agent to
receive, deposit and hold funds and other items in escrow and,
subject to clearance, disburse them upon proper authorization and in
accordance with the terms of this Contract, including disbursing
brokerage fees.  The parties agree that Escrow Agent will not be
liable to any person for misdelivery of escrowed items to Buyer or
Seller, unless the misdelivery is due to Escrow Agent's willful
breach of this Contract or gross negligence.  If Escrow Agent
interpleads the subject matter of the escrow, Escrow Agent will pay
the filing fees and costs from the deposit and will recover
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs to be paid from the escrowed
funds or equivalent and charged and awarded as court costs in favor
of the prevailing party.  All claims against Escrow Agent will be
arbitrated, so long as Escrow Agent consents to arbitrate.

16. PROFESSIONAL ADVICE; BROKER LIABILITY: Broker advises Buyer and
Seller to verify all facts and representations that are important to
them and to consult an appropriate professional for legal advice
(for example, interpreting contracts, determining the effect of laws
on the Property and transaction, status of title, foreign investor
reporting requirements, etc.) and for tax, property condition,
environmental and other specialized advice.  Buyer acknowledges that
Broker does not reside in the Property and that all representations
(oral, written or otherwise) by Broker are based on Seller
representations or public records unless Broker indicates personal
verification of the representation.  Buyer agrees to rely solely on
Seller, professional inspectors and governmental agencies for
verification of the Property condition and facts that materially
affect Property value.  Buyer and Seller respectively will pay all
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees at all
levels, incurred by Broker and Broker's officers, directors, agents
and employees in connection with or arising from Buyer's or Seller's
misstatement or failure to perform contractual obligations.  Buyer
and Seller hold harmless and release Broker and Broker's officers,
directors, agents and employees from all liability for loss or
damage based on (1) Buyer's or Seller's misstatement or failure to
perform contractual obligations; (2) Broker's performance, at
Buyer's and/or Seller's request, of any task beyond the scope of
services regulated by Chapter 475, F.S., as amended, including
Broker's referral, recommendation or retention of any vendor, (3)
products or services provided by any vendor; and (4) expenses
incurred by any vendor.  Buyer and Seller each assume full
responsibility for selecting and compensating their respective
vendors.  This paragraph will not relieve Broker of statutory
obligations.  For purposes of this paragraph, Broker will be treated
as a party to this Contract.  This paragraph will survive closing.

          ADDENDUM TO CONTRACT FOR SALE AND PURCHASE

In reference to Contract dated ___________________________ between
BIGHAM HIDE COMPANY, INC., a Florida corporation, ("SELLER") and
SOLOMAN LAM, ("BUYER"), it is further AGREED as FOLLOWS:

1.   All land to be acquired for the widening of County Road 468 or
for any interchange to be constructed for the Florida Turnpike is
specifically excluded from this Contract and Seller shall have the
sole right and authority to sell or donate said land to the
appropriate government entity should that become necessary during
the contract period.  In that event, all monies from any sale shall
be the sole property of Seller and the legal description and
purchase price shall be revised to reflect the deletion of the land
sold or donated.

2.   Any and all deposits received under paragraph 2 shall be
non-refundable to the purchaser, but shall be applied to the
purchase price at closing.  Should the Contract not close for any
reason, including all contingencies, other then the default of
Seller, all such monies deposited shall become the sole and absolute
property of the Seller as and for liquidated damages for removing
the property from the market for the contract period.  This Contract
is subject to a feasibility study for a period of 245 days from the
effective date.  That feasibility study is outlined in paragraph
6(c), but it is hereby acknowledged by both the Buyer and Seller
that this Contract is not contingent upon the Buyer receiving any
permits, development of regional impact

<PAGE>

approval, comprehensive plan amendment approval, Southwest Florida
Water Management approval, Department of Environmental approval or
any other approvals.  The only contingency shall be obtaining
rezoning of the property within to feasibility study period.

3.   The closing date for this Contract shall be on or before
September 1, 2001.  That closing date shall not be affected by the
feasibility study or any other contingencies to this Contract.  If
any contingencies are not met by September 1, 2001, this Contract
shall then become null and void at the option of either party.

4.   Seller is contemplating the sale of this property as an
Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 Exchange with Seller locating
"replacement property " under such code.  Buyer agrees to cooperate
with Seller to effectuate the acquisition of replacement property,
with all additional costs attributable to the tax deferred exchange
to be the responsibility of the Seller.  Buyer understands that the
Internal Revenue Service imposes strict time limitations on tax
deferred exchanges and therefore agrees that time shall be of the
essence of this agreement and any contract entered into subsequently
by the parties.  Buyer further understands that to carry out the
intent of the Seller regarding a tax deferred exchange, certain
rights and obligations of the Seller may be assigned to a Qualified
Intermediary and Buyer agrees to cooperate in such assignment at no
expense to Buyer.  In the event Seller

<PAGE>

cannot find suitable property by the end of the feasibility study
period, then Seller shall have the option of canceling this
Contract.

This addendum, upon its execution by both parties, is herewith made
an integral part of the aforementioned Contract.

                                   Bigham Hide Company, Inc.
