hereunder shall not be exercisable unless any of the presently outstanding
options are exercised and shall terminate to the same extent that any of the
presently outstanding options expire unexercised. The parties hereto agree that
in consideration of the Purchased Shares the Purchaser will invest $750,000 in
the Seller and lend the Seller $1,750,000 (the "Buyer Loans"), to be paid to the
Seller as follows (each a "Closing"): (i) $250,000 as a Buyer Loan to the Seller

Buyer Loan to the Seller on April 10, 2000 (the "Third Closing"); (iv) $250,000
as a Buyer Loan to the Seller on May 3, 2000 (the "Fourth Closing") and (v)
$500,000 as a Buyer Loan to the Seller by May 15, 2000; provided, however, the
Seller has delivered to the Purchaser the Tax Returns of the Seller for fiscal
year 1999 and an opinion of counsel regarding the Seller's compliance with the
laws of the State of Georgia, the Bulk Sales Act and related law of the State of
Georgia and the "Blue Sky" laws of the State of Georgia by May 15, 2000, subject

obligations of the Seller and the Purchaser arising under this Agreement shall
terminate; and (vi) $750,000 in cash and $250,000 as a Buyer Loan to the Seller
within six months of the Initial Closing (the "Sixth Closing"). Of the Buyer
Loans, an aggregate of $1,750,000 is to be a loan on the books of the Seller as
follows: (i) a $1,500,000 loan to the Seller; (ii) a $150,000 loan to Women
Xxx.Xxx ("Women, Inc."), a majority owned subsidiary of the Seller; and (iii) a
$100,000 as a loan for use in the Seller's Hispanic program (the "Hispanic
