(H) Florida Act:    The Florida Securities and Investor Protection Act

(I) Florida Rule:   Florida  Rule   3E-500.005,   which   provides  as  follows:
                    Disclosure requirements of Section 517.061(11)(a)3., Florida
                    Statutes.

          (1)  Transactions  by an  issuer  which  do  not  satisfy  all  of the
          conditions  of this rule  shall not  raise  any  presumption  that the
          exemptions  provided by Section  517.061(11),  Florida Statutes is not
          available for such transactions.  Attempted  compliance with this rule
          does  not  act  as  an  election;   the  issuer  can  also  claim  the
          availability of Section  517.061(11),  Florida Statutes,  outside this
          rule.

          (2) The determination as to whether sales of securities are part of a
              larger  offering (i.e.,  are deemed to be integrated)  depends on
              the particular facts and  circumstances.  In determining  whether
              sales  should be regarded as part of a larger  offering  and thus
              should be  integrated,  the  facts  described  in Rule  3E-500.01
              should be considered.

          (3) Although  sales made  pursuant  to Section  517.061(11),  Florida
              Statutes,  and in compliance  with this rule, are exempt from the
              registration  provisions  of this Act,  such  exemption  does not
              avoid the antifraud  provisions of Sections  517.301 and 517.311,
              Florida Statutes.

          (4) The  provisions  of this rule shall  apply  only to  transactions
              which are consummated with persons in the State of Florida.

          (5) The requirements of Sections 517.061(11)(a)(3), Florida Statutes,
              that each purchaser,  or his  representative  be provided with or
              given  reasonable  access  to full  and  fair  disclosure  of all
              material  information  shall be deemed to be  satisfied if either
              paragraphs (5)(a) or (5)(b) are complied with:

              (a) Access to or Furnishing of  Information.  Reasonable  access
                  to, or the  furnishing  of,  material  information  shall be
                  deemed  to  have  been  satisfied  if  prior  to the  sale a
                  purchaser is given access to the following information:

                  1. All material books and records of the issuer; and

                  2. All  material   contracts  and  documents  relating  to the
                    proposed transaction; and

                  3. An  opportunity  to  question  the   appropriate  executive
                     officers or partners. ....

          (6)  In the case of an issuer  that is subject  to the  reporting
               requirements  of  Section  13 or  15(d)  of  the  Securities
               Exchange Act of 1934, the provisions of paragraph  (5)(b) of
               this  rule  shall  be  deemed  satisfied  by  providing  the

                    statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 14 of the

         (3)      To the Vista Individuals:

                              Scott Ugell, Esquire
                 155 North Main Street, New City, New York 10956

         forth.

(B)      At the request of any Party,  notice will also be provided by overnight

                  consultant to AmeriNet and has acted as scrivener for Amerinet
                  in this transaction but that Yankees is neither a law firm nor

may be made by or on behalf of any Party.

other than one of the conditions precedent or subsequent,  or the application of
such  provision or any portion  thereof to any person or  circumstance  shall be
held invalid or unenforceable,  the remaining portions of such provision and the
remaining  provisions of this Agreement or the  application of such provision or
portion of such  provision  as is held  invalid or  unenforceable  to persons or
circumstances  other  than those to which it is held  invalid or  unenforceable,

         entitled to recover from the  indemnifying  Party,  all costs  incurred
         including  reasonable  attorneys'  fees  throughout  any  negotiations,

                  shall  submit the  dispute to  binding  arbitration  before an

                           mediation and  arbitration  shall be borne equally by
