DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Business Development
Bad Toys, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on April 21, 1995 in the
State of Nevada. Our initial operations were conducted in southern California
but were moved to Kingsport, Tennessee in 1996. We first had revenues from
operations in March, 1998.
Business of the Company
The Company
o manufactures for sale Harley-Davidson-type motorcycles from
component parts,
o rebuilds used Harleys for resale,
o maintains a customizing and motorcycle servicing operation and,
o special orders premium accessories, parts, customizing items and
apparel related to Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
Distribution Methods
--------------------
We propose to market our custom manufactured, V-Twin, HD-type motorcycles
on a national basis. We presently sell premium accessories, parts, customizing
items and apparel through our Kingsport, Tennessee, retail outlet. We project
revenue increases to come from expansion to locations in additional cities and
from sales through catalogs we propose to distribute nationally. Subject to
availability of capital, we forecast the opening of nine additional stores
during the first 60 months.
New Products and Services
-------------------------
Through 1998 our efforts were limited to opening our first manufacturing
and retail facility in Kingsport, Tennessee. The facility was opened for
business in March 1998 and is equipped to conduct the business described above
in "Business of the Company."
Subject to the availability of additional capital, we will manufacture
V-Twin, Harley-Davidson-type motorcycles from component parts in five basic
styles for sale:
<PAGE>
1. Traditional-classic
2. Pro Street
3. Outlaw Low Riders
4. Tour Glide package
5. Street Custom conversion
Options will include high performance Evo or Pan/Shovel engines,
transmissions and ignition systems. A choice of frames will be available for
softtail or rigid erection and wide glide or springer front ends. The customer
will have a wide variety of fenders and dress to choose from.
We will acquire and recondition used Harley-Davidson motorcycles for
resale. All resale bikes will be in like-new condition. This includes
o new tires, paint and chrome,
o polished aluminum and,
o excellent running condition.
We are not in the "used - as is" resale business.
We will offer a complete "ground-up," custom-design, special construction
motorcycle that incorporates all the customers' desires.
Bolt-on Custom Conversion.
--------------------------
We will emphasize bolt-on upgrades like billet grips, pegs, mirrors, chrome
bolts and custom seats. In addition to maintaining an extensive inventory of
high-demand upgrade parts, we will provide immediate installation service so
that the customer - you - can drive out on your new, improved bike.
Motorcycle Repair Service.
-------------------------
One of the highlights we propose is a high level of service excellence
coupled with quick turnaround. We intend to revolutionize the service segment of
this business by operating seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day. We will
maintain four service crews with four days on, twelve hours per day and four
days off. This scheduling technique will greatly enhance customer access, quick
turnaround and customer satisfaction plus provide us with the highest employee
morale.
<PAGE>
During our retail business hours, 8 am to 8 pm, the service department will
be dedicated to quick turnaround service: first priority - one hour or less, and
second priority - same day repairs, three hours or less.
The second shift service crew, 8 pm to 8 am, will be responsible for the
major repair jobs, custom work, assembly of our V-Twin products and
reconditioning of used Harley-Davidsons for resale.
Since our primary objective is customer service, the day shift service crew
should be fully staffed with six senior mechanics, three helpers and a service
manager. When variations in quick turnaround business occur, the staff on the
day shift will be assigned to second shift projects.
The second shift should be staffed on a flexible basis with a minimum crew
of a night service manager and three senior mechanics to a full crew with six
senior mechanics and three helpers. As business volume should increase, the
assembly of V-Twin HD-type bikes and ground up customs will be relocated to a
separate facility.
Retail Parts and Accessories.
------------------------------
The fixed displays in the showroom will premiere the high markup, bolt-on,
premium custom items in bullet aluminum or chrome. We believe this will elicit
maximum customer impulse purchasing. Product lines we maintain include Pro One,
Bay Area Custom, J. Brake, Arlen Ness and Performance Machine.
We believe we will have the only customer self-service station that
includes all available catalogs and parts books plus a user-friendly computer
terminal and screen. Via the computer, you will be able to easily locate the
desired part and print an express parts purchase order. You can then proceed to
the express service register to experience the quickest parts purchase in the
industry.
Advertising.
-----------
We propose to implement a consistent, high quality and effective
advertising program consisting of:
1. Newsletters: monthly or quarterly
2. Direct mail - motorcycle listings
3. Cycle magazines
4. Nontraditional magazines
5. Internet home page
<PAGE>
The newsletter will highlight new product introductions, repair or
maintenance subjects, after-market product evaluations, local and major national
events and periodic Company-advertised specials.
Direct mail will include an annual mailing of a high-quality brochure. The
brochure will market our custom-built motorcycle program, our mail order catalog
program and the availability of refurbished or new motorcycles for sale. By
specific request we will add an addressee to our newsletter mailing list.
Our monthly program will be a consistent premium-quality advertisement in
all high-circulation magazines for Harley-Davidson riders such as American Iron,
Hot Bike, etc. We plan one-half to full-page, two-color ads for custom
manufacture and catalog sales.
Bad Toys plans to commence a non-traditional advertising program in
magazines such as Newsweek, Time, Sports Illustrated, and the New Yorker. Thanks
to high-profile individuals such as Malcom Forbes and Arnold Schwarzenegger, the
demographics for Harley-Davidson riders now span every social economic group
from truck drivers to company presidents, doctors, lawyers and accountants.
Upper-middle class to the wealthy now comprise the largest group of Harley
riders.
Competition
-----------
Licensed Harley-Davidson dealerships generally offer for sale only new,
manufactured HD motorcycles. Dealerships generally do not maintain significant
inventories of used or custom-built motorcycles for resale to the riding public.
Individuals account for the majority of used motorcycle sales with the remainder
being provided by small, under-capitalized, sole-proprietor motorcycle shops.
Titan has commenced to use some of these shops as a distribution network for its
motorcycles, but Titan does not compete at Harley-Davidson prices.
The provision of special construction, custom-built motorcycles, HD type,
as we propose to do, is an emerging market. Only a few companies like Arlen
Ness, Ultra, CMC and Titan are adequately capitalized to offer this service.
This segment has been treated as an ancillary business and not as a primary
focus. There are currently few companies that are manufacturing custom-built
motorcycles for inventory for sale. Bad Toys proposes to maintain a ten to
fifteen, custom-built-motorcycle inventory at each location in addition to our
ground-up, custom-built, customer-selected program.
<PAGE>
Repair service is the most neglected segment in the motorcycle business.
Dealers provide the most significant competition in this arena, as they are
adequately capitalized, maintain a significant number of service bays, and have
large inventories of parts. Dealerships typically have the negative attributes
of limited hours for access - 8 am to 5 pm, closed Sundays - and no concept of
quick service turnaround. In essence, the traditional queuing system is the
foundation for all repair service; i.e., if the customer needs a three-hour seal
replacement, he can leave the bike for a month. Small shops exhibit the same
characteristics as the large dealerships, but service turnaround is further
exaggerated by limited inventories and no capital. In many instances the small
shop has to collect the money from the customer in advance to purchase the
necessary replacement parts; this, of course, extends the service turnaround
time.
Supplies
--------
We obtain our supplies from Harley-Davidson and other manufacturers of
motorcycle parts, such as Pro One, Bay Area Custom, J. Brake, Arlen Ness and
Performance Machine. These supplies are readily available.
Dependence on Major Customers
-----------------------------
We are not dependent on any major customers.
Patents, Trademarks and Licenses
--------------------------------
We own no patents or trademarks. We are not a licensed Harley Davison
dealer, as we do not sell new Harley Davidson motorcycles.
Government Approval and Regulations
-----------------------------------
We need no U.S. Department of Transportation approval to build special
construction motorcycles that are custom-made to a customer's order, to rebuild
motorcycles or to assemble a motorcycle from component parts that are available
in the open market. Our business is subject to no government regulations other
than those of OSHA, regulating safety in the workplace, and those of EPA,
regulating the disposal of oil, grease, and tires and the prevention of
pollution.
<PAGE>
Research and Development
------------------------
We have expended no funds during the last two years on research and
development.
Cost of Compliance with Environmental Laws
------------------------------------------
The expense of complying with environmental regulations is of minimal
consequence.
Employees
---------
We employ five persons, four persons full time and one person part time.
MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION
The Company's plan of operation for the next twelve months is to expand our
operations in Kingsport, Tennessee and to open a second facility from which to
conduct our business in Phoenix, Arizona.
The lessor of our Kingsport facility has agreed to add an additional 3,000
square feet to the facility during 1999. The lessor will bear all the costs of
this expansion but will charge additional rent once the expanded space is in
use.
We plan, subject to the availability of capital, to add approximately
$50,000 in inventory to the present approximately $140,000 in inventory in order
to offer a complete line of equipment, helmets and soft goods. We also plan to
add approximately $30,000 in plant equipment (benches, lifts, a milling machine
and a drill press) in order to eliminate the present practice of subcontracting
all our machine work.
We plan to open a second facility in Phoenix, Arizona in March 1999,
subject to the availability of capital. We plan for the facility $50,000 in shop
equipment and, depending upon available capital, between $50,000 and $300,000 in
inventory.
We believe our Tennessee facility will cash flow positively by March 1999
and that the planned Phoenix facility will cash flow positively within 90 days
after opening for business.
A shareholder, David Barrick of Phoenix, Arizona (Barrick Properties,
<PAGE>
LLC), has advanced funds to the Company for working capital and offers to
continue to advance working capital funds, as needed, during 1999. Should the
above plans be realized, we would add approximately fifteen employees to our
payroll.
PROPERTIES
The Company leases a retail and manufacturing operation at a single
facility in a specially designed 3,000-square-foot retail and service building.
The retail facility is at 2046 West Stone Drive, Kingsport, Tennessee 37660.
The facility is in a high traffic area with approximately 15,000 vehicles
passing by a day. The facility is easily accessible by freeway and should draw
customers from a 150-mile radius with a population of 3,000,000 people. The
property has ample parking and an outside area for weekend events and motorcycle
display.
The forward area of the showroom is for the display of company custom-built
and rebuilt Harleys for sale.
The facility showroom, when stocked with inventory, will emphasize
permanently affixed displays of products with secured inventory storage
compartments. This should provide an efficient use of display space, increased
security, efficient showroom stocking maintenance and enhanced inventory
control.
The showroom will be organized to allow for variation in location of
displays to accommodate customer traffic flow within the store and to heighten
interest.
The warehouse area of the facility has adequate space to stock and store
quantities of all items on display in the showroom in addition to numerous other
mechanical parts and items not displayed which are in daily demand.
The service and assembly area is large enough to house a staff of mechanics
and service personnel and is capable of accommodating the custom building and
rebuilding of motorcycles.
The lease on the facility expires in September 2002.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Under Nevada corporation law, a corporation is authorized to indemnify
officers, directors, employees and agents who are made or threatened to be made
parties to any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative suit or
proceeding by reason of the fact that they are or were a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation or are or were acting in the same capacity
for another entity at the request of the corporation. Such indemnification
includes expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such persons if they acted in
good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation or, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was
unlawful. In the case of any action or suit by or in the right of the
corporation against such persons, the corporation is authorized to provide
similar indemnification, provided that, should any such persons be adjudged to
be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of duties to the
corporation, the court conducting the proceeding must determine that such
persons are nevertheless fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. To
the extent any such persons are successful on the merits in defense of any such
action, suit or proceeding, Nevada law provides that they shall be indemnified
against reasonable expenses, including attorney fees. A corporation is
authorized to advance anticipated expenses for such suits or proceedings upon an
undertaking by the person to whom such advance is made to repay such advances if
it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified
by the corporation. Indemnification and payment of expenses provided by Nevada
law are not deemed exclusive of any other rights by which an officer, director,
employee or agent may seek indemnification or payment of expenses or may be
entitled to under any by-law, agreement, or vote of shareholders or
disinterested directors. In such regard, a Nevada corporation is empowered to,
and may, purchase and maintain liability insurance on behalf of any person who
<PAGE>
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation. As a result
of such corporation law, the Company may, at some future time, be legally
obligated to pay judgments (including amounts paid in settlement) and expenses
in regard to civil or criminal suits or proceedings brought against one or more
of its officers, directors, employees or agents.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Company has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of
1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

To the Board of Directors
Bad Toys, Inc.
Kingsport, Tennessee
I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Bad Toys, Inc., (a development
stage company) as of December 31,1998 and December 31, 1997, and the related
statements of income, retained earnings, and cash flows for the year then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on my audits.
I conducted my audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain a reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Bad Toys, Inc. as of December 31,
1998 and December 31, 1997, and the results of operations and its cash flows for
the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note H to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations
and has a net capital deficiency, which raise substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those
matters also are described in Note H. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management
who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting
policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been
consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Nature of Operations
--------------------
The Company was organized and incorporated on April 21, 1995 and began business
on April 1, 1998. The company operates a custom motorcycle manufacturing and
service facility in Kingsport, TN. The Company offers retail parts and product
sales as well as motorcycle service to its customers seven days a week. Although
principally located in Kingsport, TN, the Company's customers are located
primarily throughout the United States.
Inventories
-----------
The Company's inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost (which
approximates average cost) or market.
Property and Equipment
----------------------
Property and equipment are carried at cost. For financial statement and federal
income tax purposes, depreciation is computed using the modified accelerated
cost recovery system. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that
extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation of
property and equipment is provided using rates based on the following useful
lives:
Years
Machinery and equipment 3 - 10
Furniture and fixtures 3 - 10
Leasehold Improvements 20 - 30
Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 1998 is $6,544.
<PAGE>
Organization Costs
------------------
Costs of organizing the Company are recorded as organization costs and amortized
over five years on a straight-line basis.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
-----------------------------
The Company is engaged in the manufacture and servicing of highly custom
motorcycles.
The sales revenues are primarily derived from an area encompassing a two hundred
mile radius of Kingsport Tennessee. The company performs credit evaluations of
customers in the rare cases where credit is granted, and generally requires no
collateral from its customers.

NOTE G - LEASING ARRANGEMENTS
The Company conducts its operations from facilities that are leased under a
five-year non-cancelable operating lease expiring in September, 2002. There is
no option to renew the lease. The lessor of the facility is a stockholder of the
Company. Lessor has received shares of stock as prepaid rent for the term of the
lease. Monthly rent is $1,420, which includes monthly-prepaid rent expensed of
$520.

NOTE H - OPERATING AND CASH FLOW DEFICITS
The Company has experienced significant adversity during the development stage
of its existence. As a result, the Company has a cumulative operating deficit of
$290,192, and current liabilities, including the current portion of long term
debt, exceeds cash and current receivables by $71,551 at December 31, 1998.
Management is anticipating a large capital inflow from a planned initial public
offering scheduled for April 1999. While the proposed capital injection as well
as potential conversions of long term debt to common stock, do project to
improve the Company's working capital position, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives.

or sooner as provided here, payable in equal monthly installments in advance on
the first day of each month in the amount of $900.00 each, with the fist payment
being September 1, 1997.
All rental payments shall be made to Lessor or such other place as the
Lessor may designate in writing. Lessee shall pay the rent at the time and place

any and all requirements for written notice for nonpayment of rent.
Exhibit 10
Page 1 of 12 Pages
<PAGE>
3. Lessor agrees to pay the state, county and municipal property taxes
and insurance on the building and improvements on the demised premises,
including all alterations and additions, against loss or damages by fire during
the term of this lease.
4. No substantial portion of the building shall be demolished or removed by
Lessee, and if necessary, Lessee may at any time during the lease term, at its
own expense, make any alteration, additions or improvements in and to the
demised premises and the building.
Alterations shall be performed in a workmanlike manner and shall not
weaken or impair the structural strength, or lessen the value, of the building
on the premises, or change the purpose for which the building, or any part
thereof, may be used.
Any alterations, additions and improvements must be approved by Lessor
prior to the beginning of any work.
All alterations, additions and improvements on or in the demised
premises at the commencement of the term, and that may be created or installed
during the term, shall become part of the demised premises and the sole property
of Lessor, except that all movable trade fixtures installed by Lessee shall be
and remain the property of Lessee.
5. Lessee shall, at all times during the lease and at its own cost and
expense, repair, replace, and maintain in a good, safe and substantial
condition, the demised premises and any
Exhibit 10
Page 2 of 12 Pages
<PAGE>
improvements, additions and alterations thereto, and shall use all reasonable
precaution to prevent waste, damage or injury to the demised premises.
6. Lessee shall be responsible for the payment and procurement of telephone
and utility services for the demised premises, and all telephone and utility
services on the demised premises shall be made in the name of Lessee only, and
Lessee shall be solely liable for said telephone and utility charges as they
become due.
7. Lessee shall secure and maintain in force at its expense during the term
of this lease and any extension thereof public liability insurance with insurers
and through brokers approved by Lessor. Such coverage shall be in an amount
adequate to protect against liability occurring in or around the leased
premises, but not to be less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000).
Lessee shall provide and keep in force other insurance in amounts that may from
time to time be required by Lessor against other insurable hazards as are
commonly insured against for the type of business activity that Lessee will
conduct. Lessee shall be responsible at its own cost and expense for any and all
insurance for equipment and other personal property on the premises.
8. The Parties shall be bound by all existing casements, agreements and
encumbrances now or hereafter of record relating to

the demised premises, if any, and Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any
damage resulting from any action taken by a holder of an interest pursuant to
the rights of that holder thereunder.
Except as stated herein Lessor covenants and warrants that Lessee shall
have and enjoy full, quiet and peaceful possession of the demised premises
during the term of this lease and any extensions and renewals thereof.
9. If at any time the premises become totally untenantable by reason of
damage or loss by fire or other casualty, which has not been caused by the
wrongful act of Lessee, the rent shall abate until the premises have been
restored to a tenantable condition. If the premises are so damaged, but not to
the extent that they are totally untenantable, Lessee shall continue to occupy
the same or the tenantable portion thereof, and the rent shall abate
proportionately in the rate that the usable portion bears to the entire
premises. In the event of a loss, fire or other casualty, Lessor shall have an
election not to rebuild or recondition the premises, which election may be
exercised by written notice to Lessee given within 60 days from the date of such
loss. If Lessor exercised its election, this lease shall cease and be
terminated, effective on the date of such loss, and Lessee shall pay the accrued
rent up to the date of such loss, or the Lessor, if the rent has been paid
beyond such date, will refund to Lessee that portion or part of such rent
prepaid, and
Exhibit 10
Page 4 of 12 Pages
<PAGE>
thereafter this lease shall become null and void with no further obligation on
the part of either party.
10. A condemnation of the entire building occupied by Lessee shall result
in a termination of this lease agreement. Lessor shall receive the total of any
consequential damages awarded as a result of condemnation proceedings. All
future rent installments to be paid by Lessee under this lease shall be
terminated in such event. If only a portion, but not less than 25%, of the
improved premises are taken by condemnation, Lessee may terminate this lease at
its option.
Lessee shall not be entitled to participate in or receive any part of
the damages or award which may be paid to or award to Lessor by reason of taking
under this paragraph, except where said award shall provide for moving or other
reimbursable expenses for Lessee under applicable statute. Provided, however, so
long as the condemnation award to Lessor shall not be reduced, the rights of the
Lessor as set forth herein shall in no way prejudice or interfere with any claim
which Lessee may have against the authority exercising the power of eminent
domain for damages or otherwise for the taking of destruction of, or
interference with, the leasehold investment and/or the interest of Lessee in the
leased premises.
11. Lessee waives all claims against Lessor for damages to goods, or for
injuries to persons on or about the premises from any cause arising at any time.
Lessee will indemnify Lessor on
Exhibit 10
Page 5 of 12 Pages
<PAGE>
account of any damage or injury to any person, or to the goods of any person,
arising from the use of the premises by Lessee, or arising from failure of
Lessee to keep the premises in good condition as provided herein. Lessor shall
not be liable to Lessee for any damage by or from any act or negligence of any
owner or occupant of adjoining or contiguous property. Lessee agrees to pay for
all damages to the building, as well as all damage or injury suffered by tenants
or occupants thereof caused by misuse or neglect of the premises by Lessee.
12. Lessee will use and occupy the demised premises for lawful purposes
only, and will comply with any and all laws, ordinances, orders and regulations
of any governmental authority which are applicable to the use of the demised
premises.
Lessee shall be responsible at its own expense for obtaining any
license required for said purposes, and Lessee shall further be liable for any
and all taxes connected with said business.
13. Lessee shall not use or permit the premises, or any part thereof, to be
used for any purposes other those set forth herein. Lessee shall neither permit
on the premises any act, sale, or storage that may be prohibited under standard
forms of fire insurance policies, nor use the premises for any such purposes.
14. Lessee shall have the right to sublease, assign, underlet or grant the
permissive use of the leased premises or any
Exhibit 10
Page 6 of 12 Pages
<PAGE>
part thereof with the prior written consent of the Lessor on the express
condition that the Lessee shall remain primarily responsible to Lessor for the
performance of all covenants and conditions of this lease. In no event shall any
sublease, assignee or tenant be considered whose overall use of the demised
premises would be detrimental. Consent as herein requires shall not be
unreasonably withheld.
15. If Lessee shall at any time be in default in payment of the rent herein
reserved or in the performance of any of the covenants, terms or conditions of
the lease, or if Lessee shall be adjudged a bankrupt, or shall make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver of any property of the
Lessee in or upon said premises be appointed in any action, suit or proceeding
by or against it, or if the interest of the Lessee in said premises shall be
sold under execution or under legal process, Lessor shall have right to declare
the lease or any renewal thereof forfeited, shall have the right to re-enter
said premises, demand for same being waived, and repossess and enjoy the same,
and thereupon this lease and everything herein contained on the part of the
Lessor to be done and performed shall cease and determine, without prejudice,
however, to the right of Lessor to recover from the Lessee all rent due up to
the time of such entry, and for the remainder of the term except to the extent
that Lessor may collect rent from others to whom said space may be rented
Exhibit 10
Page 7 of 12 Pages
<PAGE>
during the remainder of the term at the highest rent obtainable and may recover
from the Lessee all rent due up to the time of such entry, and for the remainder
of the term, except to the extent that Lessor may collect rent from others whom
said space may be rented during the remainder of such term.
Lessee shall not vacate or abandon the premises at any time during the
term, but if Lessee does vacate or abandon the premises or is dispossessed by
process of law, any personal property left on the premises shall be deemed
abandoned at the option of Lessor and shall become the property of Lessor.
16. If Lessor is compelled to incur any expenses, including reasonable
attorney fees, in instituting and prosecuting any action or proceeding by reason
of any default of Lessee hereunder the sum or sums so paid by Lessor with all
interest, cost and damages shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and
shall be due from Lessee to Lessor following the incurring of such respective
expenses.
17. Lessee shall permit Lessor, his agents and other employees, to have
access to and to enter the leased premises at all reasonable and necessary times
to inspect the premises for any purposes connected with the repair, improvement,
care and management of the premises or for any other purpose reasonably
connected with Lessor's interest in the premises and to perform any work or
other act found necessary on such inspection.

<PAGE>
18. Lessee shall immediately quit and surrender possession of the demised
premises or any improvements thereon to Lessor at the termination of this lease,
by expiration of lease term or otherwise, in as good condition as reasonable use
and wear will permit, damage by fire and other elements excepted. Lessee shall
return the keys to the demised premises to Lessor at the place stipulated herein
for the payment of rent. Lessee shall pay as liquidated damages for the whole
time the possession is not surrendered as required herein a sum equal to twice
the amount of the rent herein reserved, prorated and averaged per day of any
withholding. The provisions of this clause and acceptance of any liquidated
damages by Lessor shall not constitute a waiver by Lessor or any right of
re-entry as herein set forth, nor shall any other act in apparent affirmance of
the tenancy operate as a waiver of the right to terminate this lease or operate
as an extension hereof.
19. Time is of the essence in all provisions of this lease, and all
covenants, terms, provisions and conditions contained herein shall enure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the heirs, representatives, successors and
assigns of the Parties hereto.

sold under the Plan is 500,000 shares. The shares may be authorized, but
unissued, or reacquired Stock. If an Option should expire or become
unexercisable for any reason without having been exercised in full, the
unpurchased Shares which were subject thereto shall, unless the Plan shall have
been terminated, become available for future grant under the Plan.
4. Administration of the Plan.
4.1 Administration By Board or Committee. The Plan shall be
administered by (a) the Board or (b) a committee designated by the Board to
administer the Plan, which committee shall be constituted in such a manner as to
permit the Plan to comply with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or
any successor thereto ("Rule 16b-3") with respect to a plan intended to qualify
thereunder as a discretionary plan. Once appointed, such committee shall
continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the
Board. From time to time the Board may increase the size of the committee and
appoint additional members thereof, remove members (with or without cause) and
appoint new members in substitution therefor, fill vacancies, however caused,
and remove all members of the committee and thereafter directly administer the
Plan, all to the extent permitted by Rule 16b-3 with respect to a plan intended
to qualify thereunder as a discretionary plan.
4.2 Limitation on Administration by Board.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan shall not be administered
Exhibit 10.1
Page 3 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
by the Board if (a) the Company and its officers and directors are then subject
to the requirements of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and (b) the Board's
administration of the Plan would prevent the Plan from complying with Rule
16b-3.
4.3 Multiple Administrative Bodies. If permitted by Rule
16b-3, the Plan may be administered by different bodies with respect to
directors, non-director officers and Employees who are neither directors nor
officers.
4.4 Powers of the Option Committee. Subject to the provisions
of the Plan and in, the case of a committee, the specific duties delegated by
the Board to such committee, the Option Committee shall have the authority, in
its discretion:
4.4.1 to determine whether and to what extent
Options shall be granted hereunder;
4.4.2 to select the officers, Consultants and
Employees to whom Options may from time to time be granted
hereunder;
4.4.3 to determine the number of shares of Stock to
be covered by each such award granted hereunder;
4.4.4 to determine the Fair Market Value of the
Stock, in accordance with Section 2.9 of the Plan;
4.4.5 to approve forms of agreement for use under
the Plan;
4.4.6 to determine the terms and conditions, not
inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any award granted hereunder
(including, but not limited to, the per share exercise price for the Shares to
be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option and any restriction or
limitation, or any vesting, acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions
regarding any Option or other award and/or the shares of Stock relating thereto,
based in each case on such factors as the Option Committee shall determine, in
its sole discretion);
4.4.7 to determine whether and under what
circumstances an Option may be bought-out for cash under subsection
10.4;
4.4.8 to determine whether, to what extent and
under what circumstances Stock and other amounts payable with respect to an
award under this Plan shall be deferred either
Exhibit 10.1
Page 4 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
automatically or at the election of the participant (including providing for and
determining the amount, if any, of any deemed earnings on any deferred amount
during any deferral period); and
4.4.9 to reduce the exercise price of any Option to
the then current Fair Market Value if the Fair Market Value of the Stock covered
by such Option shall have declined since the date the Option was granted.
4.5 Effect of Option Committee's Decision. All decisions,
determinations and interpretations of the Option Committee shall be final and
binding on all Optionees and any other holders of any Options. Neither the
Board, the Committee, nor any member thereof shall be liable for any act,
omission, interpretation, construction or determination made in connection with
the Plan in good faith, and the members of the Board and of the Committee shall
be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement by the Company in respect of
any claim, loss, damage or expense (including counsel fees) arising therefrom to
the full extent permitted by law.
5. Eligibility.
5.1 Nonqualified Stock Options may be granted to Employees and
Consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. An
Employee or Consultant who has been granted an Option may, if he is otherwise
eligible, be granted an additional Option or Options.
5.2 Each Option shall be designated in the written option
agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option.
However, notwithstanding such designations to the extent that the aggregate Fair
Market Value of the Shares, with respect to which Options designated as
Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionee
during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary), exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as
Nonqualified Stock Options. For this purpose, Incentive Stock Options shall be
taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market
Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect
to such Shares is granted.
5.3 The Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee any right with
respect to continuation of employment or consulting relationship with the
Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his right or the Company's right
to terminate his employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or
without cause,
Exhibit 10.1
Page 5 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company and such
Optionee.
6. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by
the Board of Directors subject only to approval by the holders of a majority of
the outstanding Shares within 12 months after such date. Should the Plan not be
approved by a vote of shareholders as specified above, the Plan shall terminate
12 months after the effective date, all options issued prior to that termination
date shall continue in effect but without the benefits that would accrue under
the Code or the Act from such shareholder approval. Otherwise, it shall continue
in effect until ten years from the effective date, unless extended by the Board
or sooner terminated under Section 15 of the Plan. No grants of Options will be
made pursuant to the Plan after termination of the Plan.
7. Term of Option. The term of each Option shall be the term stated in
the Option Agreement; provided, however, that in the case of an Incentive Stock
Option, the terms shall be no more than 10 years from the date of grant thereof
or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement. However, in the
case of an Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Option is granted,
owns Stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of
stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Option shall
be five years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be
provided in the Option Agreement.
8. Option Exercise Price and Consideration.
8.1 The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued
pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the
Option Committee; provided, however, that as to an Incentive Option:
8.1.1 granted to an Employee who, at the time of
the grant of such Incentive Stock Option, owns stock representing more than 10%
of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair
Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
8.1.2 granted to any other Employee, the per Share
exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on
the date of grant.
8.2 The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be
issued upon exercise of an Option may be paid by certified or
Exhibit 10.1
Page 6 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
cashier's check. In the discretion of the Option Committee as set forth in the
Option Agreement or, except for Incentive Options, determined at the time of
exercise, payment may also be made by any or all of the following:
8.2.1 check,
8.2.2 promissory note,
8.2.3 other shares of the Company's capital stock
which (a) in the case of shares of the Company's capital stock acquired upon
exercise of an Option either have been owned by the Optionee for more than six
months on the date of surrender or were not acquired, directly or indirectly,
from the Company, and (b) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender
equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares to which said Option shall
be exercised,
8.2.4 authorization for the Company to retain from
the total number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised that number of
Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the exercise
price for the total number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised,
8.2.5 delivery of a properly executed exercise
notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to
the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise
price, or
8.2.6 such other consideration and method of
payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted under
applicable laws.
9. Limitation on Exercise. The following limitations on exercise of
Options shall apply to all Incentive Options and, except to the extent waived by
the Option Committee and stated in the Option Agreement, to all other Options.
9.1 Termination of Employment. In the event of termination of
an Optionee's relationship as a Consultant (unless such termination is for
purposes of becoming an Employee of the Company) or on termination of an
Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee with the Company (as the case may
be), such Optionee may, but only within 90 days (or, as to Options other than
Incentive Options, such longer period of time as is determined by the Option
Committee) after the date of such termination, but in no event later than the
expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement,
exercise his Option to the extent
Exhibit 10.1
Page 7 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
that Optionee was entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination. To
the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of
such termination, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so
entitled within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.
9.2 Disability of Optionee. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 9.1 above, in the event of termination of an Optionee's relationship as
a Consultant or Continuous Status as an Employee as a result of his total and
permanent disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may,
but only within 12 months from the date of such termination and in no event
later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the
Option Agreement, exercise the Option to the extent otherwise entitled to
exercise it at the date of such termination. To the extent that Optionee was not
entitled to exercise the Option at the date of termination, or if Optionee does
not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified
herein, the Option shall terminate.
9.3 Death of Optionee. In the event of the death of an
Optionee, the Option may be exercised, at any time within 12 months following
the date of death (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of
such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), by the Optionee's estate or
by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or
inheritance, but only to the extent the Optionee was entitled to exercise the
Option at the date of death. To the extent that the Optionee was not entitled to
exercise the Option at the date of termination, or if the Optionee's estate (or
such other person who acquired the right to exercise the Option) does not
exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein,
the Option shall terminate.
10. Exercise of Option.
10.1 Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder. An
Option shall be deemed to be exercised, and the Optionee deemed to be a
stockholder of the Shares being purchased upon exercise, when written notice of
such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the
Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and full payment for the
Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised has been received by the
Company. Full payment may, as authorized by the Board, consist of any
consideration and method of payment allowable under Section 8.2 of the Plan. An
Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.
Exhibit 10.1
Page 8 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
10.2 Effect on Number of Shares. Exercise of an Option in any
manner shall result in a decrease in the number of shares which thereafter may
be available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by
the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.
10.3 Rule 16b-3. Options granted to persons subject to Section
16(b) of the Exchange Act must comply with the Rule 16b-3 and shall contain such
additional conditions or restrictions as may be required thereunder to qualify
for the maximum exemption from Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to
Plan transactions.
10.4 Buyout Provisions. The Option Committee may at any time
offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares, an Option previously granted,
based on such terms and conditions as the Option Committee shall establish and
communicate to the Optionee at the time that such offer is made.
11. Non-Transferability of Options. The Options may not be sold,
pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other
than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised,
during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee.
12. Stock Withholding to Satisfy Withholding Tax Obligations.
12.1 At the discretion of the Option Committee, Optionees may
satisfy withholding tax obligations as provided in this paragraph. When an
Optionee incurs tax liability in connection with an Option, which tax liability
is subject to tax withholding under applicable tax laws, and the Optionee is
obligated to pay the Company an amount required to be withheld under applicable
tax laws, the Optionee may satisfy the withholding tax obligation by electing to
have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the
Option, that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount
required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld
shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be
determined (the "Tax Date").
12.2 All elections by an Optionee to have Shares withheld for
this purpose shall be made in writing in a form acceptable to the Option
Committee and shall be subject to the following restrictions:
12.2.1 the election must be made on or prior to the
applicable Tax Date;
Exhibit 10.1
Page 9 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
12.2.2 once made, the election shall be irrevocable
as to the particular Shares of the Option as to which the election
is made;
12.2.3 all elections shall be subject to the
consent or disapproval of the Option Committee; and
12.2.4 if the Optionee is subject to Rule 16b-3,
the election must comply with the applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3 and shall
be subject to such additional conditions or restrictions as may be required
thereunder to qualify for the maximum exemption from Section 16 of the Exchange
Act with respect to Plan transactions.
12.3 In the event the election to have Shares withheld is made by an
Optionee, the Tax Date is deferred under Section 83 of the Code and no election
is filed under Section 83(b) of the Code, the Optionee shall receive the full
number of Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised but such Optionee
shall be unconditionally obligated to tender back to the Company the proper
number of Shares on the Tax Date.
13. Changes in the Company's Capital Structure. The existence of
outstanding Options shall not affect in any way the right or power of the
Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments,
recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company's capital
structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any
issue of bond, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or
affecting the Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of
the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or
business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar
character or otherwise; subject to the following:
13.1 If the Company shall effect a subdivision or
consolidation of shares or other capital readjustment, the payment of a stock
dividend, or other increase or reduction of the number of shares of the Stock
outstanding, without receiving compensation therefor in money, services or
property, then (a) the number, class, and per share price of shares of Stock
subject to outstanding Options hereunder shall be appropriately adjusted in such
a manner as to entitle an Optionee to receive upon exercise of an Option, for
the same aggregate cash consideration, the same total number and class of shares
as he would have received had he exercised his Option; (b) the number and class
of shares of Stock then reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be adjusted
by substituting for the total number and class of shares of Stock then
Exhibit 10.1
Page 10 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
reserved that number and class of shares of stock that would have been received
by the owner of an equal number of outstanding shares of each class of Stock as
the result of the event requiring the adjustment.
13.2 Unless otherwise expressly provided in an Option
Agreement, upon a Corporate Change (as defined below), notwithstanding any other
term of this Plan, any and all outstanding Options not fully vested and
exercisable shall vest in full and be immediately exercisable, and any other
restrictions on such Options including, without limitation, requirements
concerning the achievement of specific goals shall terminate. The foregoing
shall apply to Incentive Options, unless stated to the contrary in the Option
Agreement, even though the effect may be to convert part of the Option to a
Nonqualified Option.
13.3 As used in this Plan, a "Corporate Change" shall be
deemed to have occurred upon, and shall mean (a) the acquisition by any
individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2)
of the Exchange Act) (a "Person"), of beneficial ownership (within the meaning
of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 80% or more of either (i)
the then outstanding shares of Stock of the Company (the "Outstanding Company
Common Stock") or (ii) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"); provided, however, that
the following transactions shall not constitute a Corporate Change: (u) any
acquisition by virtue of the conversion of preferred stock of the Company
outstanding on the effective date hereof; (v) customary transactions with and
between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona fide
public offering of securities, (w) any acquisition directly from the Company
(excluding an acquisition by virtue of the exercise of a conversion privilege),
(x) any acquisition by the Company, (y) any acquisition by any employee benefit
plan(s) (or related trust(s)) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any
corporation controlled by the Company or (z) any acquisition by any entity
pursuant to a reorganization, merger or consolidation, if, immediately following
such reorganization, merger or consolidation the conditions described in clauses
(i), (ii) and (iii) of clause (b) of this paragraph are satisfied; or (b) the
approval by the stockholders of the Company of a reorganization, merger or
consolidation, in each case, unless immediately following such reorganization,
merger or consolidation (i) more than 60% of, respectively, the then outstanding
shares of common stock (or other equivalent securities) of the entity resulting
from such reorganization, merger or consolidation and the combined voting power
of the then outstanding
Exhibit 10.1
Page 11 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
voting securities of such entity entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (or other similar governing body) is then beneficially owned, directly
or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who
were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Company Common Stock and
Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such reorganization,
merger or consolidation in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership, immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation of
the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities,
as the case may be, (ii) no Person (excluding the Company, any employee benefit
plan(s) (or related trust(s)) of the Company and/or its subsidiaries or such
entity resulting from such reorganization, merger or consolidation and any
Person beneficially owning, immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or
consolidation, directly or indirectly, 80% or more of the Outstanding Company
Common Stock or Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be)
beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 80% or more of, respectively, the
then outstanding shares of common stock (or other equivalent securities) of the
entity resulting from such reorganization, merger or consolidation or the
combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such entity
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or other similar
governing body) and (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board of
directors (or other similar governing body) of the entity resulting from such
reorganization, merger or consolidation were members of the Incumbent Board (as
defined below) at the time of the execution of the initial agreement providing
for such reorganization, merger on consolidation. The "Incumbent Board" shall
mean individuals who as of the effective date hereof constitute the Company's
Board of Directors; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director
subsequent to such date whose election, or nomination for election by the
Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the
directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such
individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this
purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a
result of either (i) an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are
used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act), or an
actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a
Person other than the Company's Board of Directors or (ii) a plan or agreement
to replace a majority of the members of the Board of Directors then comprising
the Incumbent Board.
13.4 The Company intends that this Section shall comply with
the requirements of Rule 16b-3 and any future rules promulgated in substitution
therefor under the Exchange Act during
Exhibit 10.1
Page 12 of 14 Pages
<PAGE>
the term of the Plan. Should any provision of this Section not be necessary to
comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or should any additional provisions
be necessary for this Section to comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, the
Board of Directors may amend the Plan to add to or modify the provisions of the
Plan accordingly.
13.5 Except as hereinbefore expressly provided, the issue by
the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into
shares of stock of any class, for cash or property, or for labor or services
either upon direct sale or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe
therefor, or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible
into such shares or other securities, shall not affect, and no adjustment by
reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number, class, or price of
shares of Stock then subject to outstanding Options.
14. Time of Granting Options. The date of grant of an Option shall, for
all purposes, be the date on which the Option Committee makes the determination
granting such Option, or such other date as is determined by the Option
Committee. Notice of the determination shall be given to each Employee or
Consultant to whom an Option is so granted within a reasonable time after the
date of such grant.
15. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.
