incorporated herein as Exhibit 2.1) (the "Agreement"), Mully Corporation (the
"Company") acquired all of the issued and outstanding securities of Baby's Best

an aggregate of 18,000,000 shares of its "restricted" common stock to the former
shareholders of BBI in exchange for all of their stock in BBI. BBI did not
survive the transaction. The Company also changed its name to "Baby's Best.com,
Inc." and reincorporated in Florida.

to be returned to the undersigned.
The undersigned hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees with you that,
in connection with the undersigned's acceptance of the Exchange Shares and as of
the date of this letter:
1. The undersigned is aware that his acceptance of the Exchange Shares
is irrevocable, absent an extension of the Expiration Date of any material
change to any of the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
2. The undersigned warrants full authority to deposit all shares
referred to above and the Company will acquire good and unencumbered title
thereto.
3. The undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this

"Securities"), will be acquired for investment for the undersigned's own
account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or
distribution of any part thereof, and that the undersigned has no present
intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing
the same. By execution hereof, the undersigned further represents the
undersigned does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement
with any third party, with respect to any of the Securities.
5. The undersigned understands that the Securities are being issued
pursuant to available exemption thereto and have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or under any state
securities laws. I understand that no registration statement has been filed with

accrue to a holder such as me by an impartial review of such a registration
statement by the Securities and Exchange Commission or other regulatory
authority will not be forthcoming. I understand that I cannot sell the
Securities unless such sale is registered under the 1933 Act and applicable
state securities laws or exemptions from such registration become available. In
this connection I understand that the Company has advised the Transfer Agent for
the Common Shares that the Securities are "restricted securities" under the 1933
Act and that they may not be transferred by me to any person without the prior
consent of the Company, which consent of the Company will require an opinion of
my counsel to the effect that, in the event the Securities are not registered
under the 1933 Act, any transfer as may be proposed by me must be entitled to an
exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act. To this end, I
acknowledge that a legend to the following effect will be placed upon the
certificate representing the Securities and that the Transfer Agent has been
advised of such facts:
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY BE OFFERED AND SOLD ONLY IF REGISTERED
PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE ACT OR IF AN EXEMPTION FROM
REGISTRATION THEREUNDER IS AVAILABLE, THE AVAILABILITY OF WHICH MUST BE
ESTABLISHED TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE COMPANY.
I understand that the foregoing legend on my certificate for the Common
Shares limits their value, including their value as collateral.
6. The undersigned represents that he is experienced in evaluation and
investing in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges
that it is able to fend for himself, can bear the economic risk of this
investment and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment
in the Securities.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has duly executed this Investment
Letter as of the date indicated hereon.
