Holdings and Erevu are furnishing each other and the Stockholders with certain
information, which is either nonpublic, confidential or proprietary in nature.
All such information furnished by one party to the other or its representatives
is hereinafter referred to as the "Confidential Information". As used in this
Agreement, the "representatives" of any party shall mean such party's officers,
employees, agents or other representatives, including, without limitation,
attorneys, accountants, consultants and financial advisors. In consideration of
each party's being furnished with the Confidential Information of the other,
each party agrees that:

                  (a) The Confidential Information will be kept confidential and
except as required by law will not, without the prior written consent of the
party supplying the information, be disclosed by the receiving party or its
representatives in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, and will not be
used by the receiving party or its representatives directly or indirectly for
any purpose other than evaluating and facilitating the transactions contemplated
herein; provided, however, that upon the execution of this Agreement by Aladdin
Holdings, the Stockholders and Erevu, Aladdin Holdings and its representatives
will be free to use the Confidential Information to the extent required by law
in any subsequent filings with federal or state authorities relating to the
transactions contemplated herein. Each party agrees to transmit the Confidential
Information only to those of its representatives who need to know the
Confidential Information for the purpose of advising it regarding any of the
purposes for which it is permitted to use the Confidential Information under the
terms of this Agreement, who are informed by the party supplying such
information of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and who
are directed by such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement. Each
party will be responsible for any material breach of this Agreement by its
representatives.

                  (b) Without the prior written consent of the other parties to
this Agreement, no party or any of its representatives will disclose to any
other person the fact that the Confidential Information has been made available,
or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect to the transactions
contemplated herein, including the status thereof, except as required by law or
permitted under the terms of this Agreement.

                  (c) In the event the parties do not proceed with the
transactions contemplated herein, the Confidential Information and all copies
thereof will be destroyed or returned promptly without retaining any copies
thereof. Analyses, notes, studies or other documents prepared by any party or
its representatives for the purpose of assisting it in connection with the
transactions contemplated herein will be held by the receiving party and kept

                                       81
<PAGE>

confidential and subject to the terms of this Agreement or, at the election of
the other party, destroyed.

                  (d) This Section 7.7 shall be inoperative as to such portions
of the Confidential Information which (i) are or become generally available to
the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the receiving party or its
representatives which is not required by law; (ii) become available to the
receiving party from a source with no obligation of confidentiality to the other
party; (iii) describe technology independently developed by the receiving party;
or (iv) were known to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis prior to
its disclosure to the receiving party by the supplying party or one of its
representatives.

                  (e) In the event that a receiving party or any of its
representatives is requested or becomes legally compelled (by written or oral
interrogatories, subpoena, civil or criminal investigative demand or similar
process) to disclose any of the Confidential Information for purposes not
permitted by this Agreement, the receiving party will provide the supplying
party with prompt written notice so that the supplying party may seek a
protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the
provisions of this Agreement. In the event that such protective order or other
remedy is not obtained, or that the supplying party waives compliance with the
provisions of this Agreement, the receiving party will furnish only that portion
of the Confidential Information which is legally required, and will exercise
good faith efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will
be accorded the Confidential Information.

                  (f) Each party agrees that the other parties shall be entitled
to equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, in the event
of any breach of the provisions of clause (a), (b), (c) or (e) of this Section
7.7. Such remedies shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for a breach
of this Section 7.7 by any party or its representatives but shall be in addition
to all other remedies available at law or equity.

                  (g) It is further understood and agreed that no failure or
delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this
Section 7.7 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of such any right, power
or privilege hereunder.

         7.8      PAYMENT OF BROKERAGE FEES

         Any brokerage, finder's or other fee or expense due in violation of
Section 2.24 hereof shall be paid by the Stockholders.

         7.9      FURTHER ACTS

         After the Closing Date, each party hereto, at the request of and
without any further cost or expense to the other parties, will take any further
actions necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or
any Operative Document, to maintain for Aladdin Holdings full title to all

                                       82
<PAGE>

properties, assets and rights of Erevu and to effect the transfer of the Stock
to Aladdin Holdings and to effect the issuance of the Aladdin Holdings Stock to
the Stockholders and to consummate any other transaction contemplated herein.

         7.10     RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER

         For a period of one year from the Closing Date, none of the
Stockholders shall (i) sell, assign, exchange, transfer, encumber, pledge,
distribute, appoint or otherwise dispose of (a) any shares of Aladdin Holdings
Common Stock received by the Stockholders at the Closing or (b) any interest
(including, without limitation, an option to buy or sell) in any such shares of
Aladdin Holdings Common Stock, in whole or in part, and no such attempted
transfer shall be treated as effective for any purpose; or (ii) engage in any
transaction, whether or not with respect to any shares of Aladdin Holdings
Common Stock or any interest herein, the intent or effect of which is to reduce
the risk of owning the shares of Aladdin Holdings Common Stock acquired
hereunder (including, by way of example and not limitation, engaging in put,
call, short-sale, straddle or similar market transactions). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Stockholders may transfer shares of Aladdin Holdings Common Stock
to immediate family members (or trusts for the benefit of the Stockholders or
family members, the trustees of which so agree) or; provided, that, the family
member, trust, trustee, pledge or other beneficiary of such transfer,
encumbrance or pledge, as the case may be, agrees in writing prior to such
transaction to be bound by (1) the provisions of this Section as if a
Stockholder and party hereto and (2) the indemnification provisions set forth in
this Agreement as if a Stockholder and party hereto. The provisions of this
Section shall apply to the shares paid to the Stockholders at the Closing and to
any Additional Shares paid to the Stockholders; provided that the restrictions
contained herein shall only apply to the Additional Shares for the balance of
the one (1) year period commencing upon the Closing Date.

         The certificates evidencing the Aladdin Holdings Common Stock delivered
to the Stockholders hereunder will bear a legend substantially in the form set
forth below and containing such other information as Aladdin Holdings may deem
reasonably necessary or appropriate:

               EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BY THAT CERTAIN STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT, A
               COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF
               THE COMPANY FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION, THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS
               CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, EXCHANGED, TRANSFERRED,
               ENCUMBERED, PLEDGED, DISTRIBUTED, APPOINTED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED
               OF, AND THE ISSUER SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED TO GIVE EFFECT TO ANY
               ATTEMPTED SALE, ASSIGNMENT, EXCHANGE, TRANSFER, ENCUMBRANCE,
               PLEDGE, DISTRIBUTION, APPOINTMENT OR OTHER DISPOSITION PRIOR TO
               THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF THE CLOSING DATE. UPON THE WRITTEN
               REQUEST OF THE HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE, THE ISSUER AGREES TO
               REMOVE THIS RESTRICTIVE LEGEND (AND ANY STOP ORDER PLACED WITH

                                       83
<PAGE>

               THE TRANSFER AGENT) AFTER THE DATE SPECIFIED ABOVE.

         7.11     ADJUSTMENTS TO ALADDIN HOLDINGS COMMON STOCK

         In the event that Aladdin Holdings shall: (i) pay a dividend in common
stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding common stock into a greater number of
shares of common stock, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of common stock
into a smaller number of shares of common stock (as contemplated by Section 7.14
below or otherwise), or (iv) issue, by reclassification of its shares of common
stock, any shares of its capital stock, (a) the number of shares of Aladdin
Holdings Common Stock payable to the Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.4 above
shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Stockholders shall be entitled to
receive that number of shares of Aladdin Holdings Common Stock which the
Stockholders would have owned or would have been entitled to receive had such
event occurred after the issuance of such shares to the Stockholder and (b) all
other references to shares of Aladdin Holdings Common Stock herein shall be so
adjusted.

         7.12       REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

         A. DEMAND RIGHTS. (a) If Aladdin Holdings shall receive a written
request from Stockholders holding twenty-five (25%) percent of the Aladdin
Holdings Common Stock payable to the Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.4 above
(the "Initiating Stockholders") that Aladdin Holdings file a registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")
covering the registration of the Aladdin Holdings Common Stock, then the Company
shall, within 30 days of receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to
all Stockholders, and subject to limitations of this Section, use its best
efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, the registration under the Securities
Act of all the Aladdin Holdings Common Stock received by the Stockholders
hereunder that the Stockholders request to be registered. The Demand Rights
granted hereunder may be exercised no more than three (3) times.

         (b) Aladdin Holdings shall not be required to effect a registration
pursuant to this Section:

                  (i) prior to the one hundred eighty (180) days after the
Closing; or

                  (ii) after Aladdin Holdings has effected one (1) registration
pursuant to this Section and such registration has been declared or ordered
effective; or

                  (iii) if Aladdin Holdings shall furnish to Stockholders
requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section, a certificate
signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in good faith judgment of the
Board of Directors of Aladdin Holdings, it would be seriously detrimental to
Aladdin Holdings and its shareholders for such registration statement to be
effected at such time, in which event Aladdin Holdings shall have the right to
defer such filing for a period of not more than one hundred eighty (180) days
after receipt of the request of the Initiating Stockholders; provided that such

                                       84
<PAGE>

right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in
any twelve (12) month period.

         B. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS. Aladdin Holdings shall notify all
Stockholders in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing of any
registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of a public
offering of securities of Aladdin Holdings (including, and not limited to,
registration statements relating to secondary offerings of the securities of the
Company, but excluding a registration statement relating to employee benefit
plans, with respect to corporate reorganizations or other transactions under
Section 145 of the Securities Act) and will afford each such Stockholder an
opportunity to include in such registration statement all or part of the Aladdin
Holdings Common Stock held by such Stockholder.

         C. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. Except as specifically provided herein,
all registration expenses incurred in connection with any registration,
qualification or compliance pursuant to Section be borne by Aladdin Holdings
("Registration Expenses"). All underwriting discounts and selling commissions
incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder, shall be borne by the
holders of securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the number of
shares so registered. Aladdin Holdings shall not, however, be required to pay
for expenses of any registration proceeding, the request of which has been
subsequently withdrawn by the Initiating Stockholders.

         D. TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. All rights granted to each
Stockholder under this Section shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect upon the date on which the Aladdin Holdings' Common Stock issuable to
such a Stockholder may be sold under Rule 144 during any ninety (90) day period.

         7.13 TERMINATION OF FUTURE PAYMENT RIGHTS UPON SALE. In the event that
prior to the end of the Second Period, Aladdin Holdings shall enter into a
transaction for the sale of Aladdin Holdings, whether by merger or otherwise (a
"Holding Company Sale"), the parties hereby agree and acknowledge that it would
be in the best interests of Aladdin Holdings for the Stockholders to terminate
their right to receive the portions of the Purchase Price to be paid at the end
of the First Period and the Second Period, or at the end of the Second Period,
as the case may be (the "Future Payment Right"). In light of the foregoing, the
Stockholders hereby agree that in the event of a Holding Company Sale, the
Stockholders shall be deemed to have terminated and waived the Future Payment
Right in exchange for a one-time payment (the "Termination Payment") which
Termination Payment shall be based upon the consideration paid in connection
with the Holding Company Sale (the "Sale Consideration"), determined as follows:

         (a) In the event that the Sale Consideration shall be less than Ten
Million ($10,000,00) Dollars, the Termination Payment shall be zero.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Future Payment Right shall be deemed to be
terminated and waived.

         (b) In the event that the Sale Consideration shall be at least Ten
Million ($10,000,00) Dollars but less than Twenty Million ($20,000,00) Dollars,
the Termination Payment shall be calculated as follows: (i) the Sale
Consideration less (ii) Ten Million ($10,000,00) Dollars less (iii) the Sale

                                       85
<PAGE>

Consideration times a ratio the numerator of which is the number of shares
issued to the Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.4 above (the "Payment Shares")
and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Aladdin Holdings issued
and outstanding, on a fully diluted basis, immediately prior to such
transaction. Upon the Closing of such transaction, the Stockholders shall
surrender to Aladdin Holders for cancellation, their shares of Aladdin Holdings
Common Stock in exchange for a pro rata portion of the Sale Consideration in
addition to, and separate from, the Termination Payment.

         For purposes of illustration, in the event that the Sale Consideration
is $18,000,000, the number of Payment Shares if 5,000,000 and the total number
of shares of Aladdin Holdings, issued and outstanding are 15,000,000, the
Termination Payment shall be $2,000,000 (($18,000,000 less $10,000,000) less
($18,000,000 divided by 5,000,000/15,000,000)).

         (c) In the event that the Sale Consideration shall be at least Twenty
Million ($20,000,00) Dollars, the Termination Payment shall be calculated as
follows: (i) one-half the Sale Consideration less (ii) the Sale Consideration
times a ratio the numerator of which is the number of Payment Shares and the
denominator of which is the number of shares of Aladdin Holdings issued and
outstanding, on a fully diluted basis, immediately prior to such transaction.
Upon the Closing of such transaction, the Stockholders shall surrender to
Aladdin Holders for cancellation, their shares of Aladdin Holdings Common Stock
in exchange for a pro rata portion of the Sale Consideration in addition to, and
separate from, the Termination Payment.

         For purposes of illustration, in the event that the Sale Consideration
is $30,000,000, the number of Payment Shares is 5,000,000 and the total number
of shares of Aladdin Holdings, issued and outstanding are 15,000,000, the
Termination Payment shall be $5,000,000 (($30,000,000 divided by 2) less
($30,000,000 times 5,000,000/15,000,000)).

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above: in the event
that the Stockholders have received, or have earned the right to receive Payment
Shares which constitute fifty percent (50%) or more of the number of shares of
Aladdin Holdings Common Stock then issued and outstanding, the provisions of
this Section 7.13 shall not apply.

         7.14     REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.

         Aladdin Holdings shall, within thirty (30) days of the date of the
Effective Date, conduct a 1-for-3 reverse stock split.

                           ARTICLE VIII - TERMINATION

         This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

         (a) by the mutual consent of Erevu and Aladdin Holdings;

                                       86
<PAGE>

         (b) by either Erevu or Aladdin Holdings if the other parties shall have
substantially and materially breached their agreements hereunder; provided,
however, that Erevu may not terminate this Agreement for a breach by the
Stockholders, and Aladdin Holdings may not terminate this Agreement for a breach
by Aladdin Holdings. Furthermore, this Agreement shall not be terminated (nor
shall any other action be taken) for any breach hereunder, unless the party
seeking termination shall have provided to all other parties written notice
describing the breach with sufficient specificity to permit cure thereof and the
other parties shall have a reasonable opportunity (of not less than 30 days) to
cure such breach. In the event of such cure, the cured breach shall be deemed a
nullity and no action of any nature arising out of such nullified breach,
against the breaching party shall be permitted; or

         (c) by either Erevu or Aladdin Holdings if the Closing has not occurred
by September 15, 2002; provided that the party electing to terminate has used
its best efforts to consummate the Closing prior to September 15, 2002.

         In the event of any termination pursuant to this Article VIII (other
than pursuant to clause (a) above), written notice setting forth the reasons
therefor shall forthwith be given by the terminating party to the other parties
hereto. Such termination shall not prejudice any party's right to seek remedies
for another party's breach of this Agreement. All provisions of this Agreement
regarding confidentiality and non-disclosure shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.

                              ARTICLE IX - GENERAL

         9.1      EXPENSES

         Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are
consummated, each party shall pay its own fees and expenses incident to the
negotiation, preparation and carrying out of this Agreement and the Operative
Documents (including legal and accounting fees and expenses), provided that,
should any action be brought hereunder, the attorneys' fees and expenses of the
prevailing party shall be paid by the other party to such action.

         9.2      AMENDMENT

         Aladdin Holdings, Erevu and the Stockholders may amend, modify or
supplement this Agreement at any time, but only in writing duly executed on
behalf of each of the parties to be bound thereby.

         9.3      INDEMNIFICATION AND SURVIVAL OF WARRANTIES

                  9.3.1 (a) Erevu and the Stockholders agree to indemnify,
Aladdin Holdings, its successors and assigns, and the officers, directors,
affiliates, employees, controlling Persons and agents of the foregoing, and to
hold each of them harmless against and in respect of any and all losses,
damages, Taxes, penalties or other additions to Taxes, costs and expenses,
including attorneys' and accountants' fees incurred by any of them by reason of
(i) a breach of any of the representations or warranties made by Erevu or the
Stockholders in this Agreement or the Operative Documents or (ii) the

                                       87
<PAGE>

nonperformance (whether partial or total) of any covenants or agreements made by
Erevu or the Stockholders in this Agreement or the Operative Documents.

                  (b) Aladdin Holdings agrees to indemnify and to hold harmless
the Stockholders and his successors, assigns heirs, and legatees against and in
respect of all losses, damages, Taxes, penalties or other additions to Taxes,
costs and expenses, including attorneys' and accountants' fees incurred by any
of them by reason of (i) a breach of any of the representations or warranties
made by Aladdin Holdings in this Agreement or the Operative Documents or (ii)
the nonperformance (whether partial or total) of any covenants or agreements
made by Aladdin Holdings in this Agreement or the Operative Documents.

                  9.3.2 If any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to
Section 9.3.1 hereof (an "Indemnitee") is threatened in writing with any claim,
or any claim is presented in writing to, or any action or proceeding is formally
commenced against, any of the Indemnitees which may give rise to the right of
indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitee will promptly give written notice
thereof to each indemnifying party; provided, however, that any delay by an
Indemnitee in so notifying the indemnifying party shall not relieve the
indemnifying party of any liability to any of the Indemnitees hereunder except
to the extent that the indemnifying party shall have been actually prejudiced as
a result of such failure.

                  9.3.3 The indemnifying party or parties, by delivery of
written notice to an Indemnitee within 30 days of notice of claim to indemnity
from an Indemnitee, may elect to assume the defense of such claim, action or
proceeding at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that (a)
unless such written notice shall be accompanied by a written agreement of each
indemnifying party acknowledging the liability of the indemnifying parties to
the Indemnitees as a result of this Agreement for any indemnified damage which
any Indemnitee might incur or suffer as a result of such claim, action or
proceeding or the contesting thereof, each indemnifying party shall be jointly
and severally liable for the attorneys' fees and expenses of the Indemnitee, if
any, incurred in connection with defending such claim; (b) counsel undertaking
such defense shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; (c) the
indemnifying parties shall mutually elect to contest such claim, action or
proceeding and shall conduct and settle such contest in a joint manner, and if
the indemnifying parties shall fail at any time to agree, the Indemnitee shall
have no obligation to contest such claim, action or proceeding and (d) if the
Indemnitee requests in writing that such claim, action or proceeding not to be
contested, then it shall not be contested but shall not be covered by the
indemnities provided herein. The indemnifying parties may settle an
indemnifiable matter after delivering a written description of the proposed
settlement to and receiving consent from the Indemnitee. In the event the
Indemnitee unreasonably declines to consent to such settlement, then the
Indemnitee shall have no right to indemnification beyond the amount of the
proposed settlement. In the event the indemnifying parties jointly elect to
contest an indemnifiable matter, the Surviving Corporation, Aladdin Holdings and
the Stockholders shall permit each other reasonable access, subject to the
provisions of Section 7.9 hereof, to their respective books and records and
shall otherwise cooperate in connection with such claim. If the indemnifying
parties do not jointly elect to contest an indemnifiable matter, they shall
cooperate with the Indemnitee to the extent any of them has knowledge of facts
or circumstances relating to such matter, and the Indemnitee shall have the
exclusive right to prosecute, defend, compromise, settle or pay any claim, but
the Indemnitee shall not be obligated to do so; provided, however, that, should

                                       88
<PAGE>

the Indemnitee elect not to exercise its right exclusively to prosecute, defend,
compromise, settle or pay such claim, any indemnifying party may elect to do so
at its sole expense.

                  9.3.4 The representations and warranties contained in this
Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of sixteen (16) months from the
Closing.

                  9.3.5 Indemnity obligations hereunder of Erevu and the
Stockholders shall be limited in that the same shall be satisfied solely by
offsetting any amounts due from the Stockholders against shares of Aladdin
Holdings Common Stock which are issuable to the Stockholders pursuant to Section
1.4 above, such shares to be valued at the time that any such payment is to be
made.

         9.6      COUNTERPARTS

         This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
