Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i)to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii)to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration
Statement; and
(iiito include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any
material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

RE: LottoWorld, Inc. ("LWI") Form S-8 Registration Statement
Dear Mr. Schroeder:
As counsel for LWI I have reviewed the Registration Statement on Form
S-8 (the "Registration Statement") dated as of the date of this opinion and to
be filed by LWI with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to
750,000 shares of the $.001 par value LWl common stock under LottoWorld, Inc,
Key Employee and Consultant Stock Option Program (the "Program"). As General
Counsel, I have examined such documents, corporate records and instruments as I
have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.
Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that any shares of LWI
common stock issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Program will be
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission as an Exhibit to the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ James D. Cullen, Esq.

The period for exercising this option shall commence from the date of
grant and shall not be exercised after May 31, 1999. In the case of death of the
Optionee, all unexercised rights under this Agreement shall expire six (6)
months after said date of death by the estate or devise of Optionee.
2. Option Price.
This Option is granted by the Optionor to the Optionee in consideration
of Optionee's past services rendered for the benefit of Optionor.
3. Option Exercise Price.
The purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the Shares shall equal
$x.xx per Share for an aggregate sum of $x.xx.
4. Method of Exercise.
This Option may be exercised by Optionee in whole or in part. This
Option shall be exercisable by written notice to Optionor which shall state the
number of Shares to be acquired, the date the acquisition is to be consummated
and such other representations and agreements as to the Optionee's investment
intent with respect to such Shares as may be required by the Optionor pursuant
to applicable law. Such written notice shall be signed by the Optionee,
delivered to Optionor and shall be accompanied by payment of the Purchase Price
in cash, certified or cashier's check or by common stock of LWI.
5. Certificate Legend.
The certificate or certificates for Shares as to which this Option may
be exercised shall be registered in the name of the Optionee and shall contain a
legend substantially similar to the following:
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR
INVESTMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO THE DISTRIBUTION THEREOF, AND
SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS
REGISTERED UNDER SUCH ACT OR THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE
HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH SALE OR
TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT, AND UNLESS
SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS AUTHORIZED UNDER APPLICABLE STATE LAW.
<PAGE>
6. Restriction of Exercise.
This Option may be exercised only pursuant to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement and the Plan and shall not be exercised if the issuance of
Shares upon such exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal
or state securities laws or other laws or regulations.
7. Transferability of Option.
This Option is transferable and assignable by Optionee prior to
exercise, valid option rights may be transferred by testamentary instrument or
by the laws of descent and distribution to the personal representatives,
executors, administrators, heirs and successors of the Optionee and the terms of
this Option shall be binding upon said transferee, personal representatives,
executors, administrators, heirs and successors of the Optionee.
8. No Voting Rights.
This Option shall not entitle the Optionee to any voting rights or other
rights as a shareholder of LWI with respect to the Shares covered hereby until
said Shares have been registered in the name of Optionee.
9. Covenants of Optionor.
The Optionor covenants and agrees that all Shares which may be sold upon
the exercise of this Option will be retained by Optionor with no lien, pledge or
encumbrance of any type or nature which may prohibit, limit or restrict the full
and absolute transfer of the Shares to Optionee upon the exercise of any right
to acquire Shares herewith without the prior written consent of Optionee.
Further, the Optionor covenants and agrees that the Optionee shall receive, upon
exercise of this Option, in the event the common shares of LWI are changed into
a different number of securities by reason of stock dividends, split-ups,
recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, combinations or exchanges of shares
and the like, the new number of securities recorded by the LWI on account of any
such change.
10. Miscellaneous.

inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Option. This
Option is being delivered and is intended to be performed in the State of
