                  corporate structure;

</TABLE>

                  None of the Controlling Persons beneficially owns shares of

         In February 1997, the Issuer and Cameron entered into a Loan and
Security Agreement and related documents, whereby Cameron was issued a
Convertible Note by the Issuer in the principal amount of $4 million. In
February 1998, Cameron filed a lawsuit against the Issuer and Rubin, alleging
breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty, among other claims.\

         Cameron, the Issuer and Rubin entered into the Settlement Agreement on
February 18, 1998. The Settlement Agreement required the Issuer to make a cash
payment to Cameron in the amount of $1,300,000 and convert the remaining
outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Note into 670,000 shares (post 1
for 10 reverse split) of Common Stock.

         basis of 7,604,717 outstanding shares of Common Stock, as reported to
         the Reporting Person by an authorized representative of the Issuer (as
         of the filing of this Schedule 13D, the Issuer's Quarterly Report on
         Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 has not been filed,
         and the Reporting Person has reason to believe that the information on

         670,000 shares of Common stock issued, in the aggregate, to the
         Reporting Person pursuant to the Settlement Agreement.

                                       III
                                     PAYMENT

         3.1 In consideration of Plaintiff's agreement to move to vacate the
Temporary Restraining Order entered on February 13, 1998 (the "TRO") and to
dismiss with prejudice the Lawsuit, as well as the release and remaining
promises set forth in this Agreement, Defendants agree: (i) to make a one-time,
total cash payment in the amount of One Million Three Hundred Thousand and
no/100 dollars ($1,300,000.00) on or before 5:00 p.m. (EST) on February 18,
1998, such payment to be made by wire transfer to the client trust account of
Freeborn & Peters, counsel to Plaintiff, in accordance with the following wire
transfer instructions:

                           Norwest Bank Colorado, N.A.
                           1050 Seventeenth Street
                           Denver, CO  80265
                           Account #2648016089
                           ABA #102000076
                           (303) 893-9881


and (ii) to deliver to Freeborn & Peters a duly executed stock certificate or
certificates, registered in the name of Cameron Capital Ltd., representing Six
Hundred Seventy Thousand (670,000) (post-reverse split) fully-paid and
non-assessable shares of Country Star Common Stock on or before 5:00 p.m. (EST)
on February 26, 1998, provided however, that such deadline for delivery of such
certificates may be extended once for a reasonable period of time if Country
Star's transfer agent fails to perform its duties in a timely manner. Such
certificate or certificates shall bear a restrictive legend under the Securities
Act of 1933 as follows:

         THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
         SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED
         OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS (A) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IS IN EFFECT FOR
         SUCH SHARES UNDER SUCH ACT OR THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF
         COUNSEL


<PAGE>   4



         THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED, OR (B) THE SECURITIES ARE SOLD
         PURSUANT TO RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER SUCH ACT.

         3.2 Defendants further agree to use their best efforts to permit
resales by Plaintiff under Rule 144, including supplying Country Star's transfer
agent with opinions of Country Star's counsel, it being acknowledged and agreed
by Country Star that Cameron may "tack" its holding period for the Convertible
Note to the holding period for the shares delivered hereunder.

         3.3 Defendants shall have no further responsibility or liability for
disbursements (such as attorneys' fees) that Plaintiffs make or are obligated to
make from this settlement payment.


                                       IV
                  PLAINTIFFS' RELEASE AND AGREEMENT RESPECTING
                 PRESENT AND FUTURE CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION

         In consideration of and effective upon the above payment and delivery,
as well as the other promises set forth in this Agreement, Plaintiff agrees to
the following:

         4.1 Immediately upon receipt of the payment set forth in Section 3.1(i)
herein, Plaintiff and its attorneys shall file, or cooperate in filing, and take
all further steps that may be necessary to secure the Court's entry of an
appropriate Order vacating the TRO, and upon receipt of the stock certificates
described in Section 3.1(ii), Plaintiff and its attorneys shall file, or
cooperate in filing, and take all further steps that may be necessary to secure
such an Order dismissing with prejudice the Lawsuit and all of Plaintiff's
claims against Defendants. Should Defendants fail to make such payment or
deliver such certificates by such date, then Plaintiff shall not be required to
dismiss the Lawsuit and the mutual releases herein shall not be effective.
However, should such payment be made, but such certificates not be so delivered
then (i) Plaintiff shall be obligated to vacate the TRO as set forth above, but
shall not further be obligated to dismiss the Lawsuit, and (ii) the Obligations


<PAGE>   5



(as defined in the Loan Agreement) to Plaintiff shall be deemed to have been
reduced by $2.6 million in consideration of such $1.3 million payment.

         4.2 Plaintiff releases and forever discharges Defendants, Roy B. Rubin,
Rob Lyszczarz, Roy B. Rubin, M.D., P.C., M.P.P.P., and all of their assignees,
(hereinafter all collectively referred to as the "Defendant Released Parties"),
of and from all past, present or future claims, demands, obligations, actions,
or causes of action, however denominated, known or unknown, related to the
Lawsuit or arising directly or indirectly from the Loan Transactions or
Plaintiff's status as a stockholder of Country Star and/or Plaintiff's damages
sustained as a result thereof, including, but not limited to, all claims that
were or that could have been asserted in the Lawsuit, excepting any actions
necessary to enforce this Agreement. The parties intend for the Defendant
Released Parties that are not parties to this Agreement to be third-party
beneficiaries of the release provided for by this paragraph.

         4.3 Except as may be necessary to enforce this Agreement, Plaintiff
will indemnify and hold the Defendant Released Parties harmless against any
future or further exposure or payment with reference to the matters set forth in
this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any lawsuit or claim, however
presented, which may hereafter be instituted, presented or effected against them
by or on behalf of Plaintiff.

         4.4 Plaintiff acknowledges that the payment reflected in this Agreement
is full and fair compensation, is made to compromise and settle claims disputed
as to both liability and amount, and is made to Plaintiff in settlement and
release of all past, present and/or future claims against any of the Defendant
Released Parties as a result of the events described in the Lawsuit. Neither
payment of the sums reflected herein nor any statements or communications made
by Defendants or their


<PAGE>   6



agents during the negotiations leading to this Agreement shall be considered
admissions of liability by or on behalf of any of them.

         4.5 To the extent that any payment made by Defendants to Plaintiff is
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, disgorged,
set aside and/or otherwise required to be repaid to any person, then, subject to
applicable law, to the extent of such payment, repayment or disgorgement, that
part of Country Star's Obligations (as defined in the Loan Agreement) that had
been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued
in full force and effect as of the day before such initial payment under this
Agreement. Furthermore, subject to applicable law, in the event that all or any
part of this Agreement is declared invalid or illegal, or all or any part of the
payment set forth in Section III herein is declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, disgorged, set aside and/or otherwise required to be repaid to any
person, then the parties agree that they shall, at Plaintiff's election, be
restored to status quo existing as of February 16, 1998, to the extent of twice
the amount of such disgorgement payment.


                                        V
                  DEFENDANTS' RELEASE AND AGREEMENT RESPECTING
                 PRESENT AND FUTURE CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION

Plaintiff, and all of its assignees, (hereinafter all collectively referred to
as the "Plaintiff Released Parties"), of and from all past, present or future
claims, demands, obligations, actions, or causes of action, however denominated,
known or unknown, related to the Lawsuit or arising directly or indirectly from
the

<PAGE>   7



Loan Transactions including, but not limited to, all claims, counterclaim,
cross-claims, or affirmative defenses that could have been asserted in the
Lawsuit by Defendants, excepting any actions to enforce this Agreement. The
parties intend for the Plaintiff Released Parties that are not parties to this
Agreement to be third-party beneficiaries of the release provided for by this
paragraph.

         5.2 Except as may be necessary to enforce this Agreement, Defendants
jointly and severally will indemnify and hold the Plaintiff Released Parties
harmless against any future or further exposure or payment with reference to the
matters set forth in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any lawsuit
or claim, however presented, which may hereafter be instituted, presented or
effected against them by or on behalf of: Defendants.

                                       VI
                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

         6.1 Except as expressly set forth herein, neither Plaintiff nor
Defendants make any representation or warranty to the other.

         6.2 All parties agree to execute any and all supplementary documents
and to take all additional steps reasonably necessary to give full force and
effect to the basic terms and intent of this Agreement. Not in limitation of the
generality of the foregoing, Plaintiff agrees that it shall, upon request, on or
after ninety-one days after the date of the payment described in Section 3.1(i)
herein, execute and deliver (i) for cancellation all of the promissory notes
representing the Obligations, except for those promissory notes previously
delivered for conversion to Country Star or its agents; and (ii) such U.C.C.
termination statements and other documents and instruments as may be reasonably
necessary to reflect the termination of Plaintiff's status as a secured creditor
of Country Star; provided, however, that Plaintiff shall not be so obligated if
Country Star files a petition in

<PAGE>   8



bankruptcy, or if an involuntary petition in bankruptcy is filed against Country
Star, within such ninety-one day period.

         6.3 Plaintiff and Defendants shall separately bear their own respective
attorneys' fees and costs arising from the Lawsuit and/or the actions of their
own respective counsel in connection with the matters referred to in this
Agreement.

completely upon their own judgment and upon the advice of their attorneys, and

         6.5 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the personal representatives, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of
Plaintiff and Defendants.

         6.6 This Agreement should be deemed to have been entered into in the

agreement between
