additional legal expenses, out-of-pocket expenses and allocable share of
employee compensation incurred in connection with such participation for any
employee whose participation is so requested. If the Indemnifying Party desires

14)A list of the competitors and their principal products or services and a
description of the nature of the competition:
o WebRamp: Manufacture IP Shareing/Firewall Devices Public company

o Flowpoint: Business unit of Cabletron (Nasdaq: CA). Manufacturer
of integrated DSL Devices. Very large company. Much higher
prices.
o WebBeedle: Manufacture IP Sharing/Firewall Devices. Private
company. Aggressive price points. Their products have certain
limitations that the Nexland products to not (not PPPoE
compliant, limits the numbers of users for IP Sharing).
o Cayman Systems: Manufacture IP/Sharing/Firewall Devices.
Private company. Higher prices. Their products are very similar
to Nexland's, but with higher pricing. They do not support PPPoE.

in IP Sharing. Private company. Their product is not as feature
rich as the ISB2LAN. A bit more expensive.
15)The company's appropriate rank, if any, in the industry for any total
revenues, and whether the company is a significant factor in these fields:
Nexland, Inc. is becoming the "recommended" IP Sharing device for ISP's and
Telcos. At this time we could not accurately rank the company.
16)The extent to which the competitors are better established, better known, or
possess greater financial and technical resources: From a marketing
standpoint, Webramp and Flowpoint and better known than Nexland. Both
companies have significant financial resources. However, due to our limited
resources, Nexland's strategy has been to create exposure for
the Company by establishing a technical network of Beta Testers and users on
the "inside" of major corporations. Additionally, Nexland has established
strategic alliances with major technology companies. Redback Networks (RBAK),
Net to Net Technologies and Copper Mountain Networks (CMTN) and "piggybacked"
with them into their customers locations. As far as technical resources,
Nexland Inc. posses the same technical expertise but has a smaller laboratory
environment and less engineers on staff than our competitors.
l7)The ease or difficulty, of entry into the Company's principal fields of
business: It is rather difficult to become a manufacturer of IP Sharing and
Firewall devices, even if you are a major manufacturer. The technology is
available, but the constant changes in the customer requirements and firmware
make it a very expensive and tedious task. Nexland's advantage is two fold:
1) We already have the manufacturing molds and processes in place and 2) We
already have beta-testers and customers in the field; this enables us to
change the product on the fly, whenever necessary.
18)A complete description of present and projected research and development
activities: Research and Development is one of Nexland, Inc.'s strong areas.
Following are some of the projects that are currently under development:
o Integrated DSL Box with ISB2LAN (Cable & DSL)

----------------
AGREEMENT by and among the shareholders (the "Shareholders") of
Nexland, S.A., a French corporation having its principal address at 00 xxx
Xxxxxxxx, 00000 Xxxx-xxx-Xxxxx, Xxxxxx (the "Company").
WHEREAS, Nexland, Inc., a Florida Corporation, intends to enter into a
binding legal agreement (the "Acquisition Agreement") with WindStar Resources,
Inc., an Arizona corporation ("WindStar") whereby WindStar will acquire Nexland,
Inc. (the product of such acquisition, if and when it should occur, shall be
referred to herein as the "Option Holder"); and
WHEREAS, Section 9.6 of the Acquisition Agreement requires, as a
condition to the closing of the transactions contemplated therein, that the
Company grant to Option Holder an option (together with the rights conveyed in
Paragraph 3 below, the "Option") to purchase all of the Company's issued and
outstanding shares on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, the Shareholders collectively own all of the issued and
outstanding shares of the Company;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for such other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the Shareholders agree as follows:
1. Incorporation of Recitals. Without limitation, the foregoing is
incorporated herein and made a part hereof.
2. Grant of Option. Each of the Shareholders does hereby grant to Option
Holder the irrevocable option, subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, to purchase their respective interests in the Company, as
represented by their shareholdings in the Company.
3. Right of First Refusal. As a part of the Option granted hereby, the
Shareholders agree that should a bona fide third party make an offer to
purchase (the "Third Party Offer") substantially all of the assets of
the Company, or all of the shares held by the Shareholders, Option
Holder shall have the right to make such purchase on the same terms and
conditions as set forth in the Third Party Offer. Option Holder shall
have 60 days after receipt of written notice of the Third Party Offer
to exercise its right to purchase and if exercised, such purchase shall
be binding and enforceable on the Shareholders.
4. Time for Exercise. The Option shall expire at 5:00 p.m. on June 30,
2000 (the "Expiration Date").
5. Exercise Price. Should it choose to exercise the Option prior to the
Expiration Date set forth above, Option Holder shall first cause an
independent valuation of the Company to be made by a French accounting
firm. The valuation shall be presented to both Option Holder and
the Company for review. If acceptable to both, the consideration
payable in exercise of the Option shall be equal to the amount of the
valuation (the "Valuation Amount"), payable at Option Holder's sole
option in either cash or in common shares of the Option Holder having
an aggregate market value equal to the Valuation Amount.
6. Notice of Exercise. The Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable
by the Option Holder giving not less than seven (7) days' written
notice of its intention to exercise to each of the Shareholders with a
copy of the valuation accompanying such notice. Within seven (7) days
after the receipt of such written notice and a copy of the valuation,
each of the Shareholders shall deliver a duly executed share
certificate transferring all of their right, title and interest in the
Company to the Option Holder in exchange for their pro rata portion of
the consideration set forth in Paragraph 4 above.
7. Manner of Delivering Notices. All notices provided for by this Option
Agreement shall be made in writing and sent, either (i) by actual
delivery of the notice into the hand of the party entitled; (ii) by
delivery by registered or certified mail to the last known address of
the party entitled thereto (such notice deemed received one week after
deposit); (iii) by delivery via overnight courier service (such notice
deemed received two days after deposit); or (iv) by facsimile
transmission (such notice deemed received two days after deposit).
8. Non-Transferrability of Option. The Option and the rights and
privileges conferred hereby may not be transferred, assigned, pledged
or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise)
and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.
Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise
dispose of this Option or any right or privilege conferred hereby,
contrary to the provisions hereof, or upon the levy of any attachment
or similar process on the rights and privileges conferred hereby, this
Option shall immediately become null and void.
9. "All or Nothing". Option Holder expressly acknowledges and agrees that
the Option may be exercised only with respect to all of the shares held
by the Shareholders, if it is to be exercised at all. In no event shall
Option Holder be permitted to exercise the rights hereunder in any
amount less than the entire amount of the outstanding shares of the
Company.
10. Interpretation of Agreement; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This
Option Agreement, and any amendment, claim or controversy relating
thereto, shall be governed by and interpreted exclusively in accordance
with the laws of the United States of America and of the State of
Florida without regard to its conflicts of law provisions. The Parties
agree to submit any controversy to the jurisdiction and venue of a
state or federal court located in Miami-Dade County, Florida, AND WAIVE
ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.
11. Attorney's Fees; Litigation. The prevailing party in any litigation
arising out of this agreement shall be entitled to recover all of its
attorney's fees and costs (to include all paralegal's costs) through
all appeals.
12. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
Florida law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited
by, or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating
the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.
13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes and expresses the entire
Option Agreement, and no agreements, warranties, representations or
covenants not expressed herein shall be binding upon the Shareholders.
14. Captions. The captions appearing before Paragraphs in this Option
Agreement have been inserted solely for the purposes of convenience and
ready reference. They do not purport to, and shall not be deemed to,
define, limit or extend the scope or intent of the Paragraphs to which
