NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual
covenants and agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby mutually

agree as follows:
1. Simultaneously with the Transfer, Sands will pay to SSI $250,000
(the "Sands Payment") payable by wire transfer.
2. Simultaneously with the Transfer, BlueStone will pay to SSI $64,000

Schedule 5(a) to the August Agreement (the "Sands Leases"). Regardless of

under each BlueStone Lease, and will make such payments directly to the lessor
for the remaining terms of each such BlueStone Lease. BlueStone shall indemnify
SSI against all claims arising under the terms of the BlueStone Leases from
August 31, 2001 onward.
6. Each of Sands and BlueStone, at their respective cost, shall fully
cooperate with SSI and its counsel in securing the necessary lessor consents and
documentation required to effect the actions contemplated in Sections 4 and 5
above.
7. This Agreement will become effective only upon SSI's receipt of the
Sands Payment and the BlueStone Payment. If the Sands Payment and the BlueStone
Payment are not received by SSI by the next business day following the date of
the Transfer, this Agreement will become automatically and immediately null and
void.
8. Except as expressly provided herein, the August Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect.
