subject to the exclusive control of MANAGERS.
(b) All gross revenues from the motor vehicle operations of MF&LC shall be
subject to the control of MANAGERS, who shall determine the costs of such

otherwise or applied to any other operations of MF&LC.
(c) From the existing credit lines of MF&LC, the credit lines to be
established with respect to the motor vehicle operations and from the gross
revenues from the motor vehicle operations of MF&LC, MANAGERS shall purchase all
required vehicles. Upon disposition of each leased vehicle, MANAGERS shall pay
off all credit lines, notes, liens, debts and liabilities applicable to such
motor vehicle and the balance shall, for purposes hereof and without regard to
tax or GAAP accounting, shall be deemed gross revenues from the motor vehicle
operations.
Likewise, insurance proceeds for any vehicle shall be deemed gross
revenues from the motor vehicle operations.
(d) From the gross revenues from the motor vehicle operations of MF&LC
(including gross proceeds from the disposition of vehicles and insurance
proceeds), the MANAGERS shall service all credit lines financial obligations,
debts, and liabilities now existing or incurred with respect to the motor
vehicle operations, including but not limited to all principal, interest,
points, financing charges, and other such financing costs and charges.
(e) From the revenues from the motor vehicle operations of MF&LC, MANAGERS

not limited to furniture, equipment, supplies.
(f) MANAGERS shall pay to MF&LC a corporate management fee in a sum equal
to fifteen percent (15%) of the net income of the motor vehicle operations
treated as a separate division, calculated prior to deduction of the management
fee being determined, which is to reimburse MF&LC f or it share of corporate
group costs (e.g., audit costs) and costs incurred on MF&LC's behalf (e.g.,
corporate/SEC legal and other professional fees).
(g) The net revenues of the motor vehicle operations shall be (i) the
gross revenues, as defined above, including but not limited to all lease/rental
income, vehicle disposition proceeds and insurance proceeds, less (ii) the
financing costs and costs and expenses of the motor vehicle operations, as
defined above, including the MF&LC corporate management fee.
-5-
(h) The net revenues of the motor vehicle operations shall be calculated
annually by the independent certified public accountants of FIDELITY as part of
the audit of the financial statements of FIDELITY. In making the calculation,
income derived from the block of leases held by MF&LC as of the date of the
acquisition of MF&LC shall be segregated, as owned by FIDELITY. "Income derived
from the block of leases" shall include all items of income including gains on
the disposition of vehicles, financing buy-out discounts, release of reserves
attributable to leased vehicles, as well as the on-going interest and other
income from such leases. The calculation shall utilize GAAP, following MF&LC's
existing accounting procedures and methods consistently, and shall not be
adjusted for other costs, expenses and charges of MF&LC outside the motor
vehicle operations. Prior to such audit, MANAGERS may withdraw quarterly, as a
draw against their anticipated management fee, a sum not to exceed twenty
percent (20%) of the net revenues derived from "new business" (i.e., not from 7
the block of business as of the date of acquisition of MF&LC by FIDELITY)
calculated on a quarterly, cumulative basis utilizing the compiled quarterly
financial statements. Upon release of the audit, there shall be first be
segregated the income derived from the block of leases held by MF&LC as of the
date of the acquisition of MF&LC ("old" operations). This portion of the
proceeds shall be deposited in the Sinking Fund required under the Plan of
Reorganization for redemption of the Preferred Stock and/or the Debentures. The
balance of such net income less any quarterly draws previously withdrawn shall
be paid over to the MANAGERS as their compensation for the management of the
motor vehicle operations.
In the event that the balance of the net proceeds of the motor vehicle
operations of MF&LC payable to MANAGERS as their compensation are insubstantial
or negative, MF&LC has no obligation to pay any management fee to MANAGERS, or
to assure that MANAGERS achieve any specific level of compensation, or to
reimburse MANAGERS for any loss or deficit in the motor vehicle operations. If
MANAGERS shall have made quarterly withdrawals which are more than ten percent
(10%) greater than the management fee to which they are entitled, as determined
from the audit, MANAGERS shall (a) immediately (within ten business days after
written demand, by MF&LC) repay the excess to MF&LC and (b) not make further
quarterly withdrawals until after a quarterly profit & loss statement showing
that a management fee is being earned.
(j) In the event of a loss or def icit in the motor vehicle operations,
MANAGERS shall be responsible for such and shall pay any unpaid costs and
expenses of the motor vehicle operations. However, in the event of any such loss
or losses, MANAGERS may, in the exercise of their management authority, in their
discretion, determine to terminate the motor vehicle operations. Such
termination shall affect all "new" operations, but MANAGERS shall continue the
operations for the purpose of completing all "old" operations, as purchased by
FIDELITY. MANAGERS shall not be responsible for any losses with respect to such
"old" operations.
-6-
(k) To the extent that any funds remain in the Sinking Fund, unexpended
for the purposes thereof, upon the termination thereof as provided In the Plan
of Reorganization and related documents, MANAGERS shall be entitled to receive
therefrom the reimbursement of all losses or deficits paid pursuant to
subparagraph (j) above.
(1) The calculation in subparagraph (h) above assumes the continuance of
the existing credit lines, guaranteed by or cross-collateralized by MANAGERS
and/or Major Automotive Group. As the existing credit lines and financial
accommodations are assumed by FIDELITY and/or MF&LC without such guarantees
and/or cross collateralization, the parties shall renegotiate the calculation in
subparagraph (h) above to provide FIDELITY and/or MF&LC with appropriate
compensation for the providing of such credit'. MANAGERS may, in their
discretion, continue existing or obtain new credit lines or financial
accommodations requiring their guarantees and/or cross collateralization and not
use the new lines, in which event no compensation shall be due to FIDELITY
and/or MF&LC.
8. SIGNING BONUS, (a) As a "signing bonus", to induce MANAGERS to execute
this Management Agreement and undertake the responsibilities herein, FIDELITY
hereby agrees to issue to MANAGERS, 50% / 50% to each, Common Stock Purchase
Warrants exercisable f or the purchase of One Hundred Thousand (100, 000) shares
of FIDELITY'S Common Stock at an exercise (purchase) price of One Dollar and
Twenty-five Cents ($1.25) per share; (i.e., Fifty Thousand (50,000) each). Such
Common Stock Purchase Warrants shall not be transferable nor exercisable prior
to December 31, 1996. FIDELITY covenants that it will register sufficient shares
of its Common Stock in its proposed SB-2 Registration Statement, expected to be
filed in the fourth quarter of 1996,- to permit MANAGERS to exercise such
warrants for free trading shares following effectiveness. The Common Stock
Purchase Warrants shall expire at the close of the business day (5:00 p.m.) six
(6) months after effectiveness of the SB-2 Registration Statement. MANAGERS
acknowledge awareness that if they exercise such common Stock Purchase Warrants
prior to the effectiveness of FIDELITY'S SB-2, they will acquire shares which
are restricted as to further transfer (non-free trading); MANAGERS jointly and
severally represent and warrant that they are acquiring the Common Stock
Purchase Warrants and any shares, issued upon exercise of such warrants prior to
effectiveness of the SB-2 for personal investment purposes and not with a view
to resale or distribution; the Common Stock Purchase Warrants and the
certificates for such shares if 9 exercised prior to effectiveness of the SB-2,
shall bear a legend on the face thereof indicating that such warrants and shares
have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and are restricted as
to further transfer.
(b) If MANAGERS breach the terms of this Management Agreement at any time
prior to exercise of the Common Stock Purchase Warrants, and such breach is
material and is uncured within the time period provided, or within a reasonable
time if no time period is provided, such warrants shall be cancelable by
FIDELITY and the value thereof shall be forfeited by MANAGERS.

certain environmental hazards, such as the removal and disposal of used motor
oil, the replacement of air conditioner gases, and the disposal of parts
containing toxic, hazardous wastes. MANAGERS shall manage the motor vehicle

necessary) strictly in conformity with the terms of all permits and the
regulations of all environmental agencies having jurisdiction. MANAGERS shall
establish and maintain strict controls and procedures to protect against
discharge, emission, spillage or other contamination or pollution, whether

of the contamination and to terminate its source, and (iii) promptly remediate
the contamination in accordance with the requirements of environmental agencies
having jurisdiction.
10. MAINTENANCE OF AND ACCESS To BOOKS AND RECORDS. Although intended to
operate as an autonomous division within MF&LC, the motor vehicle operations
are, in fact, a part of the on-going business of MF&LC which, in turn, is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of FIDELITY, a public company which anticipates SEC
financial filing requirements. During the term of this Management Agreement,
MANAGERS shall:
(a) maintain the books and records of the motor vehicle operations in a
timely, complete and accurate manner, consistent with the existing accounting
procedures and methods, but subject to the requirements of FIDELITY'S
accountants for GAAP and SEC accounting purposes;

documents, and other data depositaries, at any reasonable time and from time to
time, to FIDELITY, MF&LC and their agents and representatives. MANAGERS shall

vehicle operations that FIDELITY and/or MF&LC may reasonably request; and
(c), keep such books and records as required by FIDELITY's and/ or MF&LC's
accountants, in compliance with GAAP and SEC requirements and cooperate fully
and in good faith to meet all quarterly and annual filing deadlines.
FIDELITY shall designate the accountants for the motor vehicle operations,
consistent with the appointment for MF&LC and FIDELITY.
11. TERMINATION, In reliance upon this Management Agreement, and pending
renegotiation and replacement of the existing credit lines and financial
accommodations, MANAGERS are maintaining their personal financial guarantees and
the guarantees of constituent corporations of the Major Automotive Group, and
are continuing (and may expand) the motor vehicle operations under such credit
lines and financial accommodations. Accordingly, this Management Agreement shall
not be subject to termination by MF&LC, regardless of the violation of this
Agreement by MANAGERS and regardless of MANAGERS' default, until and unless MFUC
shall have made provision for the assumption, servicing and repayment of all
such indebtedness, together with the release of all such existing guarantors.
Subject to such requirement, this Management Agreement may be terminated:
