than, one day prior to the merger between AUSA and Telespace, Ltd. ("TS") a

later than September 30, 1999. The basic terms and conditions of this
transaction (the "Transaction") shall be as follows:
A. Acquisition of DC Stock. AUSA shall exchange 3,500,000 shares of its
common stock (the "AUSA Stock") for all issued and outstanding shares
of DC's Stock and all outstanding stock options, whether vested,
exercised or otherwise. Subsequent to the completion of the
Transaction, DC shall remain a fully operating, wholly owned
subsidiary of AUSA.
B. Acquisition Condition. This Transaction is conditioned on AUSA's being
satisfied through due diligence performed by its legal counsel and its
outside accounting firm confirming that the information presented by
DC to AUSA in support of this Transaction is substantially as
represented by DC.
