This agreement ("Agreement") is entered into on this 1st day of January, 1999,
by and between GW Services, Inc., a California corporation, (hereinafter

"Operating Company" and collectively as "Retailer") listed and identified in
Exhibit A, supplemental pages attached is Retailer store list (which exhibit is

("Equipment") and water services ("Services") and wishes to provide Equipment
and Services to Retailer at all supermarket locations now or hereafter owned or

considered cancelled and superceded by this Agreement except for the
representation and warranties (and corresponding indemnification's and
provisions) set forth in those agreements which shall continue to survive.

Retailer is agreeable to permitting the equipment to be placed and services to
be provided at and for the Locations under the following terms and conditions:

Groups:  Each of the following shall be a separate "Group" for purposes of
- ------
calculations made on a Group basis under this Agreement:  (i) all Fred Meyer
store Locations; (ii) all Quality Food Center, Inc. ("QFC") store Locations;
(iii) all RGC and Hughes store Locations; (iv) all Cala store Locations; (v)

Clark County and metropolitan Las Vegas ("New SFD"); and (vi) all SFD store
Locations not included in clause (v) of this paragraph ("Old SFD").

Effective Date:  the effective date ("Effective Date") of this Agreement will be
- --------------
January 1, 1999.

Term:  the term ("Initial Term") of this Agreement shall be for five years from
- ----

Should this Agreement automatically renew a pro-rated amount of the Marketing
Allowance will be paid for the renewal period.

Placement of Equipment:  Retailer grants GWS the exclusive right to place
- ----------------------
Equipment at such places as GWS and Retailer shall mutually determine inside
and/or outside the supermarket buildings located at all existing Locations owned
or leased by Retailers (subject to any approvals required by the landlord(s) of
Retailer), including but not limited to those Locations listed on Schedule A to
this Agreement, and at any additional locations not previously listed on
Schedule A owned or leased by Retailer during the term of this Agreement (a "New

the New Location shall be added to Schedule A.  During the term of this
Agreement, Retailer shall not authorize or permit

<PAGE>

the placement of any other water-vending device inside or outside of any
existing or New Location without obtaining the prior written consent of GWS. If
a New Location is acquired or operated by retailer after the date of this
Agreement and the Retailer determines, in its sole discretion, that because of
the format of such store it does not desire to supply the New Location with
Equipment under this Agreement, such New Location shall not be subject to this
Agreement.

Compensation Allowance:  GWS will pay a compensation allowance ("Compensation
- ----------------------
Allowance") in the amount of ** by check upon execution of this agreement to
reimburse Retailer for expenses incurred to do market research, operational
evaluation, equipment testing, product testing, financial analysis, and other
expenses.  Such Compensation Allowance shall be considered nonrefundable and
earned upon receipt by Retailer and shall have no further performance
requirements after the date of receipt.  Such Compensation Allowance will be
paid to each Operating Company involved as follows:  ** to RGC, Hughes and Cala
(collectively) and  ** to Old SFD.

Marketing Allowance:  GWS will pay to Retailer a marketing allowance ("Marketing
- -------------------
Allowance") of **.  Such Marketing Allowance will be paid for locations at RGC,
Hughes, Cala, and Old SFD and shall be allocated as follows:  ** to RGC, Hughes,
Cala (collectively) and ** to Old SFD.  The Marketing Allowance paid shall be
based on a store location count ("Store Count"), calculated initially as
follows:  RGC, Cala and Hughes, collectively at ** Locations (at ** per store
Location per month over the Initial Term); Old SFD at ** Locations (at ** per
store Locations per month over the Initial Term).  Amounts paid in respect of
the Marketing Allowance shall be refundable, and additional amounts shall be
payable as an additional Marketing Allowance, after the first twelve (12) months
of the Initial Term as follows:

RGC, Hughes and Cala:  if the number of RGC, Hughes or Cala store Locations in
- --------------------
operation at the beginning of any month during the Initial Term is in excess of
the Store Count for such stores as of the beginning of the previous month, then
Retailer shall be entitled to receive from GWS a payment equal to the difference
between such amounts multiplied by ** , multiplied by the number of months
remaining during the Initial Term.  If the number of RGC, Hughes and Cala store
Locations in operation at the beginning of any month during the Initial Term is
less than the Store Count for such stores as of the beginning of the previous
month, then GWS shall be entitled to receive from Retailer a refund payment
equal to (x) the difference between such amounts, multiplied by (y) ** ,
multiplied by (z) the number of months remaining during the Initial Term.

Old SFD:  if the number of Old SFD store Locations in operation at the beginning
- -------
of any month during the Initial Term is in excess of the Store Count for such
stores, then Retailer shall be entitled to receive from GWS a payment equal to
the difference between such amount multiplied by ** , multiplied by the number
of months remaining during the Initial Term.  If the number of Old SFD store
Locations in operation at the beginning of any month during the Initial Term is
less than the Store Count for such stores as of the beginning of the previous
month, then GWS shall be entitled to receive from Retailer a refund payment
equal to (x) the difference between such amounts, multiplied by (y) ** ,
multiplied by (z) the number of months remaining during the Initial Term.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, GWS shall not be entitled to a refund under this
Marketing Allowance provision for any Locations if GWS's inability to operate
its Equipment at such Location arises primarily from a material breach of GWS's
obligations under this Agreement.  The foregoing provision regarding refund of
the Marketing Allowance no longer shall be in effect if GWS previously has been
refunded or will be refunded the Marketing Allowance under the provisions of the
Termination section of this Agreement.

c)   with respect to Locations where both coin operated and non-coin operated
     Equipment is located, (i) if estimated commissions based upon estimated

Each party to this Agreement will hold in strict confidence from any other
person or entity, the subject matter and the terms and provisions of this
Agreement, unless compelled to disclose such information by governmental or
regulatory authorities.

This Agreement is made on February 11, 1999, between SAFEWAY, INC., herein
                                                     -------------
called ACCOUNT, and GW SERVICES, INC., herein called GLACIER, and relates to the
placement and operation of GLACIER'S Water Vending Machines, as follows:

GLACIER is the owner of water processing machine(s), herein called machine(s),
and desires to place the machine(s) at the premises owned or leased by the
ACCOUNT in order to sell processed water to the public.

The ACCOUNT agrees to permit a machine(s) to be placed at its place of business
under the below described terms and conditions:

1.   PLACEMENT AND OPERATION OF MACHINES

      a)   ACCOUNT agrees that GLACIER shall have the right to place a
           machine(s) at the specific location(s) designated by ACCOUNT within
           the municipality known and numbered (see Exhibit A), and any new
           locations acquired by ACCOUNT while under this Agreement, upon
           approval by GLACIER. ACCOUNT represents and warrants to GLACIER that
           ACCOUNT has full authority to permit GLACIER to operate its water
           processing machine(s) at the property described in this paragraph and
           that there are no restrictions or agreements with any person or
           entity which prohibit the operation of a machine at the property.
           ACCOUNT will cause to be removed immediately, any water vending
           equipment that provides substantially the same function as GLACIER'S
           equipment.

      b)   GLACIER agrees to place a machine(s) at the location(s) designated by
           ACCOUNT and to incur the initial costs of permits and licenses,
           water, electrical and drain connection improvements necessary for the
           operation of the machine(s).

      c)   ACCOUNT agrees to provide GLACIER with electrical current and city
           tap water at ACCOUNT'S expense during the term of this Agreement in
           sufficient amounts to allow the machine(s) to properly operate.

      d)   GLACIER agrees to maintain the machine(s) in good condition and
           repair and in full compliance with all health and safety regulations
           of government authorities pertaining to water quality. GLACIER agrees
           to maintain in full force and effect any permits or licenses required
           by governmental authorities to sell processed water.

      e)   ACCOUNT agrees to promptly report any damage to, or malfunction of
           the machine to GLACIER. ACCOUNT agrees to allow GLACIER, its agents,
           contractors, and employees access to the property for the purpose of
           maintaining and servicing the machine(s). GLACIER will maintain all
           machines in accordance with federal and state standards in effect at
           the machine location(s).

      f)   GLACIER shall have the discretion to determine whether the
           machine(s), once placed on ACCOUNT'S property, is sufficiently
           profitable to merit continued operation at that location. If GLACIER
           determines that the machine(s) is not sufficiently profitable, the
           machine(s) shall be removed from the location by GLACIER and this
           Agreement will be terminated with respect to that location only.

                              LOCATION AGREEMENT
                    FOR COIN AND NON-COIN OPERATED MACHINES


II.   FINANCIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

      a)   This Agreement shall commence on the date of installation of initial
           GLACIER machine(s) or upon signature of both parties, whichever is
           later, and shall remain in effect for a period of sixty (60) months.
           This Agreement will automatically renew for one year at the
           conclusion of the initial term and for each anniversary thereafter
           until canceled in writing with at least 60 days notice by ACCOUNT or
           GLACIER.

      b)   For non-coin operated machine(s), ACCOUNT agrees to collect and remit
           to GLACIER the proceeds from the sale of water dispensed by the
           machine(s). ACCOUNT shall make the necessary additions to its in-
           store accounting system to enable it to transact the sale of
           processed water dispensed by GLACIER'S machine(s). ACCOUNT shall be
           responsible for collecting from the customer the sales price, as
           determined in accordance with this Agreement, for each gallon of
           water dispensed.

      c)   For non-coin operated machine(s), on a weekly basis, GLACIER's
           Service Representative shall record, and ACCOUNT's store
           representative shall sign and receive a copy of, the meter reading
           from the machine(s) indicating the number of gallons of water
           dispensed. Gallons sold shall be computed by GLACIER on a four-week
           period based on total gallons dispensed as indicated by the weekly
           meter readings, multiplied by the sales price. Gallons sold will be
           multiplied by the sales price to determine Gross Sales for the
           reporting period.

      d)   GLACIER will determine the sales price for all locations with regard
           to the area and the competitive market.

      e)   ACCOUNT will earn a Commission based on a percentage of Gross Sales,
           which commission shall be calculated in accordance with the
           commission structure attached as Exhibit B, and shall be net of taxes
           and fees (including but not limited to permits, licenses, regulatory
           fees and inspection costs) relating to the operation of the machines
           (cumulatively, the Fees). A commission percentage shall be calculated
           separately for each location, based on the joint performance of all
           machines at that location. GLACIER shall provide a monthly accounting
           of pertinent financial data on each machine to ACCOUNT.

      f)   For coin-operated machine(s), GLACIER agrees to pay to ACCOUNT on or
           before the 25/th/ of each month, for the previous month's sales
           performance, a percentage of the net water sales from each coin-
           operated machine per the attached Exhibit B. The amount paid will be
           determined by the joint performance of all water processing machines
           at any given location.

      g)   ACCOUNT agrees to honor all promotional coupons or other giveaways
           authorized by GLACIER. ACCOUNT will redeem such coupons with GLACIER
           in accordance with instructions on the coupons, and GLACIER, upon
           receipt of such coupons, will reimburse ACCOUNT the value of the
           coupons on a monthly basis.

      h)   ACCOUNT agrees to and is bound by the terms set forth in the attached
           CREDIT AGREEMENT.

III.  ADDITIONAL TERMS

      a)   GLACIER shall provide evidence of Commercial General Liability
           Insurance at Account's request. The limits of said coverage shall be
           not less than $1,000,000 Combined Single Limit for Bodily Injury,
           Death and/or Property Damage. Further, Glacier agrees to place this
           insurance with a company rated by A.M. Best and have a "Best" rating
           of at least A-,VII.

           remain the property of GLACIER.

      c)   GLACIER understands and agrees that this Agreement constitutes only a
           license to use a portion of the property

your Account by the Payment Due Date, you will be obligated to pay us a Finance
Charge at a periodic rate of 1.5% per month (ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE:  18.0%) on
the outstanding balance of your Account assessed from the Payment Due Date until
paid in full.  The Finance Charge shall be payable on the entire unpaid balance
of your Account, including unpaid Finance Charges from previous periods.

     6.   NON PAYMENT.  If your Account balance is delinquent or in default, we
may suspend or cancel your Account in our discretion.  We may remove our water
vending machine(s) from your location in our discretion without further notice
to you if your Account is in default.

     7.   DEFAULT - COLLECTION COSTS AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.  You are in default
if you fail to comply with the terms of this Agreement, including failing to
make a required payment when due.  If you are in default, we may charge you
reasonable attorney's fees and court or other collection costs as permitted by
law and as actually incurred by us, including post-judgment motions, contempt
proceedings, garnishment, levy, debtor and third party examinations, discovery,
bankruptcy litigation and appeals of any order or judgment.  If we remove our
water vending machines from your location because your Account is in default,
you agree to pay us $1,000.00 as Liquidated Damages to offset the costs that may
be incurred by us in undertaking such removal, whether our actual costs are
greater or less than $1,000.00.  You acknowledge that the actual costs of such
removal are difficult or impossible to estimate and that the amount of
Liquidated Damages provided in this paragraph is a reasonable estimate of the
costs of removal, travel, storage and administrative expenses that may be
incurred by us.  Notwithstanding our right to receive Liquidated Damages from
you pertaining to removal of our water vending machine(s) pursuant to this
paragraph, we reserve all of our rights to seek damages against you for your
breach of this Credit Agreement, the Location Agreement and any other agreements
between us.

and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the state of California.
