of the '33 Act, and applicable state securities laws. Such issuance or
reservation of shares shall be in reliance on representations and

compensation paid under this Agreement, including income and social
security taxes, unemployment insurance, and any other taxes due relative to
Advisor's Personnel, and any and all business license fees as may be
required. This Agreement neither expressly nor impliedly creates a
relationship of principal and agent, or employee and employer, between
Advisor's Personnel and the Company. Neither Advisor nor Advisor's
Personnel are authorized to enter into any agreements on behalf of the
Company. The Company expressly retains the right to approve, in its sole
discretion, each Business Opportunity introduced by Advisor, and to make
all final decisions with respect to effecting a transaction on any Business
Opportunity.
10. Rejected Business Opportunity

Company elects not to proceed to acquire, participate or invest in any
Business Opportunity identified and/or selected by Advisor, notwithstanding
the time and expense the Company may have incurred reviewing such
transaction, such Business Opportunity shall re-vest back to and become
proprietary to Advisor, and Advisor shall be entitled to acquire or broker
the sale or investment in such rejected Business Opportunity for its own
account, or submit such assets or Business Opportunity elsewhere. In such
event, Advisor shall be entitled to any and all profits or fees resulting
from Advisor's purchase, referral or placement of any such rejected
Business Opportunity, or the Company's subsequent purchase or financing
with such Business Opportunity in circumvention of Advisor.

employer as between Advisor's Personnel and the Company.

amended, or any similar successor statute.
14. Remedies
Advisor and the Company acknowledge that in the event of a breach of this
Agreement by either party, money damages would be inadequate and the
non-breaching party would have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, in
the event of any controversy concerning the rights or obligations

of its obligations, agreements, or conditions hereunder may be waived
in writing by the party to whom such compliance is owed. The failure
of any party to this Agreement to enforce at any time any
of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be
a waiver of any such provision or a waiver of the right of such party
thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any
breach of or non-compliance with this Agreement shall be held to be a
waiver of any other or subsequent breach or non-compliance.

be assignable by either party without the prior written consent of the
other.

THE OPTION
OPTION AGREEMENT
THIS OPTION AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into effective the 1st day
of July 1999, by and between Xxxx X. Xxxx, individually and on behalf of NuVen
Advisor Limited Partnership, a Nevada Limited Partnership (collectively
"NuVen"), and NuOasis Las Vegas, a Nevada corporation (the "Company").
WHEREAS, the Company has agreed to issue to NuVen the option to purchase
shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") to induce NuVen to
execute the Advisory Agreement of even date between the Company and NuVen, such
agreement incorporated herein by reference (the "Advisory Agreement").
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises herein, and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
below, NuVen and the Company agree as follows:
1. The Option
The Company hereby grants to NuVen the option to acquire Five Hundred
Thousand (500,000) shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Option"),
subject to adjustment as set forth herein (such shares, as adjusted, are
hereinafter referred to as the "Option Shares"), at a purchase price of
Fifty Cents ($.50) per share ("Option Price").
2. Term and Exercise of Option
A. Term of Option. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Holder shall
have the right to exercise the Option in whole or in part, commencing
the date hereof through the close of business on July 1, 2004.
B. Exercise of the Option. The Option may be exercised upon written
notice to the Company at its principal office setting out the number
of Option Shares to be purchased, together with payment
of the Option Price
C. Issuance of Option Shares. Upon such notice of exercise and payment
of the Option Price, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered
within five (5) business days following the written order of Holder,
or its successor as provided for herein, and in such name or names as
the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number
of Option Shares so purchased. The rights of purchase represented by
the Option shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder
thereof, either in full or from time to time in part, and in the event
the Option is exercised in respect of less than all of the Option
Shares purchasable on such exercise at any time prior to the date of
expiration hereof, the remaining Option Shares shall continue to be
subject to adjustment as set forth in paragraph 4 hereof. The Company
irrevocably agrees to reconstitute the Option Shares as provided
herein.
3. Reservation of Option Shares
The Company shall at all times keep reserved and available, out of its
authorized Common Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock sufficient
to provide for the exercise of the Option represented by this Agreement.
The transfer agent for the Company's Common Stock and any successor
transfer agent for any shares of the Company's capital stock issuable upon
the exercise of any of such Option rights, will be irrevocably authorized
and directed at all times by the Company in writing to reserve such number
of shares. The Company will cause a copy of this Agreement to be
kept on file with the Company's current transfer agent or its successors.
4. Adjustment of Option Shares
The number of Option Shares purchasable pursuant to this Agreement shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain
events, as follows:
A. Adjustment for Recapitalization. In the event the Company shall
(a) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (b) issue or
convert by a reclassification or recapitalization of its shares of
Common Stock into, for, or with other securities (a
"Recapitalization"), the number of Option Shares purchasable hereunder
immediately following such Recapitalization shall be adjusted so that
the Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of
Option Shares or other securities of the Company measured as a
percentage of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company's
Common Stock as of the date hereof, which it would have been entitled
to receive immediately preceding such Recapitalization, had such
Option been exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event
or any record date with respect thereto; provided however that, in the
event of any change in the Company's Common Stock by reason
of a reverse stock split, neither the number nor the Option Price of
the shares subject to this Option shall be changed or be adjusted.
B. Preservation of Purchase Rights Under Consolidation. Subject to
paragraph 4 above, in case of any Recapitalization or any other
consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company
into another corporation, or in case of any sale or conveyance to
another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, the Company shall prior to the closing
of such transaction, cause such successor or purchasing corporation,
as the case may be, to acknowledge and accept responsibility for the
Company's obligations hereunder and to grant the Holder the right
thereafter upon payment of the Option Price to purchase the kind
and amount of shares and other securities and property which he would
have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of
such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. The provisions of this
paragraph shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers,
sales or conveyances.
C. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Option Shares
purchasable hereunder is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company
shall mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the
Holder notice of such adjustment or adjustments, and shall deliver to
Holder setting forth the adjusted number of Option Shares purchasable
and a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment,
including the computation by which such adjustment was made.
5. Failure to Deliver Option Shares Constitutes Breach Under Advisory
Agreement
Failure by the Company, for any reason, to deliver the certificates
representing any shares purchased pursuant to this Option within the five
(5) business day period set forth in paragraph 2 above, or the placement of
a Stop Transfer order by the Company on any Option Shares once issued,
shall constitute a "Breach" under the Advisory Agreement and, for the
purpose of determining the terms of this Agreement, shall automatically
toll the expiration of this Agreement for a period of time equal to the
delay in delivering the subject shares or term of the Stop Transfer order.
6. Indemnification for Section 16 (b) Violation
The Company agrees to indemnify NuVen for expenses and the payment of
profits arising from the exercise of the Option and sale by NuVen of Option
Shares in violation of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, or any similar successor statute.
7. Assignment
The Option represented by this Agreement may only be assigned or
transferred by NuVen to an Affiliate or subsidiary, or as the result of a
corporate reorganization or recapitalization. For the purpose of this
Option the term "Affiliate" shall be defined as a person or enterprise that
directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is
controlled by, or is under common control with the Company otherwise, this
Agreement and the rights hereunder shall not be assigned by either party
hereto.
8. Counterparts
A facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction of this instrument may be
executed by one or more parties hereto and such executed copy may be
delivered by facsimile or similar instantaneous electronic transmission
device pursuant to which the signature of or on behalf of such party can be
seen, and such execution and delivery shall be considered valid, binding
and effective for all purposes. At the request of any party hereto, all
parties agree to execute an original of this instrument as well as any
facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction hereof.

such action as may be reasonably requested by the other party to affect the
transaction, or otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of this
Agreement.
