Dear Xx. Xxxxxxxxxx:
Generation Capital Associates (GCA) hereby agrees to purchase and
Westmark Group Holdings, Inc. (WGHI) hereby agrees to issue and sell 3,500,000
shares of WGHI Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (Series I Preferred Stock)
for the sum of $2,000,000 upon the following terms and conditions:
1. The closing of the transaction contemplated between WGHI and First NLC
Financial Services, LLC (1st NLC) as set forth in the letter of intent
dated May 15, 2000, takes place on or before July 31, 2000 (1st NLC
Closing).
2. WGHI wholly-owned subsidiary Westmark Mortgage USA is authorized to
originate and purchase mortgage loans.
3. Upon the consummation of the 1st NLC Closing and the purchase of the

worth of at least $2,200,000.
4. At or before the GCA Closing WGHI must provide GCA with a budget of all
corporate overhead and general and administrative items for the
following 24 months which is acceptable to GCA.
5. The 3,500,000 shares of Series I Preferred Stock shall be convertible
into 3,500,000 shares of WGHI common stock. However, if immediately
after the conversion of the last Series I Preferred Stock GCA's
interest in WGHI is less than forty-eight percent of WGHI's issued and
outstanding common stock, on a fully-diluted basis, then the final
conversion shall be for the number of shares of WGHI common stock
required for GCA to have such an interest.
6. The Holders of the Series I Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote
their shares of Series I Preferred Stock on the same basis as holders
of common stock (one share equals one vote).
7. The WGHI common stock shall be listed for trading on the NASDAQ Small
Cap Stock Market at all times between today and the GCA Closing and the
purchase and sale of the Series I Preferred Stock shall not require the
filing by WGHI of a New Listing Application.
8. The issuance and sale of the Series I Preferred Stock is subject to
approval of the WGHI shareholders as required by the rules of the
NASDAQ Small Cap Stock Market.
GCA confirms that it has deposited the sum of $2,000,000.00 with Xxxxx
X. Xxxxxxxx (General Counsel of GCA), as escrow agent (Escrow Agent), to be held
by the Escrow Agent until the earlier of: (a) the 1st NLC Closing; (b) August 1,
2000; or (c) delisting of the WGHI common stock from trading on the NASDAQ Small
Cap Stock Market. In the event the 1st NLC Closing has not been consummated on
or before July 31, 2000 or the WGHI common stock is delisted from trading on the
NASDAQ Small Cap Stock Market prior to July 31, 2000, GCA shall have the right
to require the Escrow Agent to return the $2,000,000 to GCA or to proceed with
the GCA Closing eliminating compliance with Item 8 above. In the event the 1st
NLC Closing is held on or before July 31, 2000, the Escrow Agent shall deliver
the $2,000,000 to WGHI in return for the 3,500,000 shares of Series I Preferred
Stock immediately upon WGHI's compliance with the terms and conditions of Item 1
