                    RULE 144 SELLER'S REPRESENTATION LETTER

To: PaineWebber Incorporated

In conjunction with my order to sell 2000 shares of Gainsco as broker or dealer
for my account in the manner permitted by Rule 144 (the "Rule") under the
Securities Act of 1933, I advise you as follows:

1.  During the 3 months prior to the date of this letter, a total of 0 shares of
    the above security have been sold by me and by any person whose sales must
    be aggregated with mine as provided in paragraphs (a) and (e) of Rule 144
    which I confirm I have read. Neither I, nor to the best of my knowledge, any
    person whose shares must be aggregated with mine, intend to sell any
    additional shares within the next 3 months (other than as
    follows_________________).

2.  I (am/am not) an affiliate of the issuer.

3.  The number of shares which I have ordered you to sell as broker or dealer
    for my account, combined with the number of shares set forth in paragraph
    (1) above, does not exceed the greater of:

    a)  1% of the outstanding shares of the security, as shown by the most
        recent report or statement published by the issuer, or

    b)  if the security is listed on a national securities exchange and/or
        NASDAQ, the average weekly volume of trading on all such securities
        exchanges and/or NASDAQ during the four calendar weeks preceding my
        filing of the Form 144 Notice with the Securities and Exchange
        Commission or, if no notice is required, preceding the receipt of this
        sell order.

4.  Enclosed is an executed copy of Form 144, three copies of which have been
    filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and one copy of
    which has been filed with the principal stock exchange, if any, where the
    Securities are traded. The statement made on such Form 144 are complete,
    true and correct, and I will advise you of any change prior to the execution
    of my order.

5.  The Company whose shares I am selling has filed the required periodic
    reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission as described in Rule 144
    (c) (1). If I rely on written advice from the issuer, I attach a copy
    hereto.

6.  If the Securities being sold are "restricted securities" as defined in
    paragraph (a) (3) of Rule 144, I confirm that I have been the beneficial
    owner of such securities for a period of one year as provided in paragraph
    (d) of the Rule.

7.  a)  I have not solicited nor arranged for the solicitation of any orders to
        buy in anticipation of or in connection with my proposed sale.

    b)  I have made no payment to any other person in connection with your
        execution of my order.

    c)  I have not agreed to act in concert with any other person in connection
        with my proposed sale.

8.  It is my bona fide intention to sell subject shares within a reasonable time
    after the filing of the Form 144 and/or receipt of this sell order. If
    shares have not been sold within 90 days of such date, I understand a new
    filing will be required.

9.  I understand that payment of the proceeds will be delayed until the shares
    are transferred and delivered free of restriction into PaineWebber's name.

10. I know of no important development affecting the Company or its business or
    products which has not been made public, and I confirm that I have requested
    you to sell such shares for personal reasons and not because of any
    information which I may have with respect to the Company or its current or
    prospective operations.

The undersigned represents that the information furnished above is correct and
complete to the best of his/her knowledge, information and belief. In the event
that any of the information furnished is found to be no longer accurate or
complete, the undersigned will promptly notify his/her PaineWebber branch
