Cash Escrow Agreement, the second to be made upon payment by the Buyer
of the $50,000 principal of Promissory Note No. 1 into the Cash
Escrow, and the third to be made upon the sooner to occur of payment
of the entire principal balance of Promissory Note No. 2 or
cancellation of such note (or the remaining unpaid portion thereof, as
the case may be) in accordance with this Agreement, Promissory Note
Exhibit 10.1 - Pg. 2
No. 2 and the escrow agreements referred to herein as releases of
cash funds to Centrack are made from the Cash Escrow, provided that
all expenses incurred by Centrack after the Closing and before any
reverse merger have been paid from proceeds of the Buyer's payment of
Promissory Note No. 2 in response to demands therefor. Prior to such
releases, the Buyer shall have full voting rights to all of the
Shares, but may not hypothecate the Shares or any portion thereof.

exceeded at any time, provided that the overall Cash Budget of
$150,000 is not to be exceeded without the agreement of the Parties.
The Cash Escrow Agent shall be required to expend all such cash
releases solely to pay the aforesaid obligations.
