games. At the end of the calendar year 2000, MYM's CEO, Xxxxx Rolling, began to

G. In or about June, 2001, the principals of MYM and Allpaq entered into
negotiations regarding the acquisition by MYM of assets of Allpaq. A draft of an
"Exchange Agreement and Plan of Reorganization" was circulated and discussed
which set forth in detail the contemplated purchase by MYM of all of Allpaq's
capital stock, as well as a purchase of assets, including all assets of Allpaq
necessary for the conduct of business in the manner in which Allpaq was
conducting business, as well as tangible and intangible property, including all
vehicles, equipment, inventory, contracts, customer lists, intellectual
property, cash, and accounts receivables. The "Exchange Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization" was never finalized or executed by the parties.
H. Certain issues have arisen, such that the parties desire not to proceed
with the sale of Allpaq assets to MYM, and the parties desire, through this
Agreement, to dissolve and rescind any agreements made between them during the
negotiations pertaining to the written "Exchange Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization." Through this Agreement, the parties desire to rescind any
relationship that may have arisen between them, and to bring this entire matter
to a final conclusion and settlement to avoid incurring any further costs and
expenses incident to the above-described negotiations. Therefore, the parties
each give their full, complete, and Mutual Release of all Claims to the other,
expressly recognizing that by the making of this Agreement and by its execution,
the parties do not admit liability or wrongdoing of any kind on their part, or
on the part of anyone else.
