THE DISCUSSION IN THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT CONTAINS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WHICH INVOLVE RISKS AND OTHER UNCERTAINTIES. REFERENCES TO THE "COMPANY" OR TO "IDS" REFER TO INDUSTRIAL DATA SYSTEMS CORPORATION. BUSINESS GENERAL Industrial Data Systems Corporation ("IDS") was incorporated in the State of Nevada in June 1994. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 600 Century Plaza Drive, Building 140, Houston, Texas 77073. The Company's telephone number is (281) 821-3200. IDS has never filed for protection under the bankruptcy protection act, nor has the Company or any of its assets been in receivership or any other similar proceedings. The Company's revenue is derived from two operating segments: the Industrial Products Division ("IPD") and the IDS Engineering Division ("IED"). The IPD is a provider of specialized microcomputer products that are targeted to be sold to the industrial market. The IPD manufactures and sells industrial and portable computers, microcomputers and color CRT monitors under the Company's trade name, which include the SafeCase Series 3000, 4000, 5000 and 7000. The microcomputer and peripheral products are designed to be used in industrial applications, which include manufacturing, process control, discrete manufacturing, data acquisition and man-machine interfaces. The computers and monitors that are manufactured by the Company are different from conventional, commercial desktop and portable computers by its architecture, packaging, functionality, integration services and value-added software. The computer products manufactured by the IPD are "open systems" that support "off-the-shelf" software operated under DOS or Windows. The Company also derives revenue from the integration and resale of industrial computer products manufactured by other companies. The IPD positions itself to provide engineered industrial personal computers. The IPD adds value to standard computer components by packaging these components in enclosures which withstand tough environmental conditions and/or enclosures that have a special form factor. The Company also adds value by integrating and technically supporting advanced microcomputer systems. The IDS Engineering Division ("IED") offers engineering services to the pipeline division of major integrated oil companies. These services are performed on facilities that include cross-country pipelines, pipeline pump stations, compressor stations, metering facilities, underground storage facilities, tank storage facilities and product loading terminals. The management team of the IED has the capability of developing a project from the initial planning stages through detailed design and 2 construction management. The services provided include project scoping, cost estimating, engineering design, material procurement, mechanical fabrication, in addition to project and construction management. The IED has ten blanket service contracts currently in place to provide services on a time and materials reimbursable basis. The IED also performs services for its clients on a turnkey lump sum basis. The Company has a long standing relationship with Exxon Pipeline Company, Arco Pipeline Company, Marathon Pipeline Company and Texas Eastern Products Pipeline Company. New business relationships with other major oil companies are developed through in-house personnel. ACQUISITION OF INDUSTRIAL DATA SYSTEMS, INC.

INTRODUCTION OF SAFECASE SERIES 400 On August 14, 1996, the Company announced the introduction of the SafeCase Series 400 computer as its latest entry into the industrial portable computer market. This computer is the industrial equivalent of a contemporary commercial grade notebook computer. The size of the computer is 9" wide by 12" in length and 5" in height and provides the same basic footprint as commercial grade laptop computers, and complements the performance, durability and reliability of the Company's other 3 industrial computers. The SafeCase Series 400 is designed to be utilized in an environment with mild and severe weather conditions, from light rain to gusting winds and temperatures ranging from nine to 50 degrees Celsius, and is constructed to withstand shock at 10G and vibration loads of 0.5mm within a five to 100 Hz range. The SafeCase Series 400 is a fully featured portable computer with an introduction price of $3,995. Initial deliveries of this computer are scheduled to commence during the first quarter of 1997. The Company plans to increase sales through the introduction of additional computer products in 1997, and it is in the process of researching complementary computer products which are suitable to the industrial computer market. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW The market for computer products and services has experienced significant growth in recent years and the use of such products and services within organizations has been impacted by several concurrent trends. The introduction of LANs (local area networks) and WANs (wide area networks) has allowed organizations to supplement or replace expensive, centralized mainframe computer systems with more flexible and affordable PC-based client/server platforms. The emergence of widely accepted industry standards for hardware and software has increased the acceptance of open architecture LANs and WANs which can and frequently do contain products from numerous manufacturers and suppliers. Industrial personal computers and workstations are displacing other controllers in a growing number of applications. Suppliers of office grade (white box) personal computers have a price advantage. However, the necessity of "hardened" units for difficult industrial environments ensures growth in the sales of industrial personal computers and workstations. The worldwide industrial personal computer and workstation industry is one that predominantly services OEM and systems integrator applications. Growth is expected to be slightly higher for OEM and systems integrator applications than for end-user applications. Quality, reliability, shock resistance and speed of operation are key factors of significance for the user. The ability of the user to use the industrial personal computer in rugged environments, such as harsh office, light industrial and heavy industrial applications is also essential. Users have needs and expectations that will affect product designs in the industrial computer market. The type of backplane that is used, is of critical importance as it affects ruggedness, expandability and price. The supply side of the market is moving in diverse directions depending on price and performance. High-end industrial personal computer and workstation vendors are shifting more to active backplanes in order to lower prices, while low-end vendors are continuing to use predominantly passive backplanes to meet user demands for expansion and ease of servicing. The industrial personal computer market is following the desktop market in terms of bus architectures with industrial modifications. The ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) bus will remain the industry standard for primary buses, and will be integrated in hybrid form with PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) in a large percentage of shipments. The average number of board expansion slots is expected to increase over the next five years. The number of PCMCIA slots is expected to 4 remain the same, but more industrial PCI computers and workstations will have these features. The industrial personal computer and workstation market is moving heavily in the direction of Pentium, which will be followed by P-6, P-7 and Power PC microprocessors. The most popular enclosure type for industrial personal computers and workstations is rack mount. Panel mount is the second most popular enclosure for light and heavy industrial conditions, and third most popular for harsh office conditions. Bench top, desktop and tabletop is the second most popular for harsh office, and the third most popular enclosure type for light and heavy industrial environments. Relative use of these enclosures are expected to shift only slightly over the next five years, as are those of lesser used pedestal mounts, hand held, notebooks and luggable portables. Distribution channels for computer products changed significantly commencing in the early 1990's. During that period, many manufacturers of computers began to scale back their sales forces and, in order to ensure the continued wide distribution of their products, started to offer their products to wholesale computer distributors which previously had sold only software and peripheral equipment. In addition, manufacturers also began allowing resellers to purchase products from more than one distributor, a practice known as "open sourcing". Expanding computer sales to distributors and allowing open sourcing intensified price competition among suppliers. Rapid technological improvements in computer hardware and the introduction of new software operating systems have also created the need to expand or upgrade existing networks and systems. At the same time, price decreases have made such networks and systems affordable to a larger number of organizations. The Company believes that these trends have increased the general demand for computer products and related information technology services. The advent of open architecture networks has also impacted the market for information technology services. Wider use of complex networks involving a variety of manufacturer's equipment, operating systems and application software has made it increasingly difficult to diagnose problems and maintain the technical knowledge and repair parts necessary to provide support services. Increasingly, organizations seeking computer products often require prospective vendors not only to offer products from many manufacturers and suppliers, but to have available and proficient service expertise to assist them in product selection, system design, installation and post-installation assistance and service. The Company believes that the ability to offer customers a comprehensive solution to their information technology needs, including the ability to work within its customers' industrial environments as integral members of their management information system staff, are increasingly important in the marketplace. BUSINESS STRATEGY The Company intends to increase market share and market penetration through its existing product line, and also increase its sales through strategic relationships with other computer manufacturers. On September 20, 1996, the Company announced that it had entered into a Volume Purchasing Agreement with Texas Microsystems, a division of Sequoia Systems, Inc. Under the terms of the Purchasing Agreement, the Company will purchase OEM subsystems from Texas Microsystems and act as an authorized systems integrator for their industrial computer products. Texas Microsystems 5 is a leading manufacturer of industrial computer CPU boards and chassis products. The Company is actively pursuing similar OEM contracts with several major suppliers in the industrial computer and desktop workstation marketplace. The Company also intends to continue to pursue potential acquisitions of complementary businesses. The success of this strategy depends not only upon the Company's ability to acquire complementary businesses on a cost-effective basis, but also upon its ability to integrate acquired operations into its organization effectively, to retain and motivate key personnel and to retain customers of acquired firms. No specific acquisitions are being negotiated or planned as of the date of this Registration Statement and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to find suitable acquisition candidates or be successful in acquiring or integrating such businesses. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that financing required for any such transactions will be available on satisfactory terms. In order to achieve its growth objective, the Company intends to commence with the expansion of its national marketing network to increase sales of its current line of proprietary industrial computer products. This expansion into new locations within the United States will require additional in-house sales personnel and sales representatives. PRODUCTS INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS DIVISION The Company's Industrial Products Division ("IPD") provides Intel microprocessor-based microcomputer systems and system components that are extremely dependable and can withstand harsh weather conditions and demanding work environments. These computer systems are designed to withstand a wide fluctuation in temperatures, shock waves, vibration, electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, in addition to airborne dust particles and excessive moisture. SAFECASE SERIES 3000 The SafeCase Series 3000 is a microcomputer designed to be operated at sites where temperature, vibration and airborne dust particles are of primary concern. This microcomputer is designed to accommodate either active motherboard CPUs or passive backplanes with plug-in CPUs. Being extremely adaptable, it can be configured to accommodate various types of CPU boards, in addition to the installation of various floppy and hard drives. The microcomputer enclosure is constructed of 16 gauge steel and is pressurized by a filtered push-pull fan cooling system to prevent dust particles and other matter from entering into the computer. All of the computer components are modularly installed and shock mounted. The SafeCase Series 3000 is suitable for installation in a standard 19" equipment rack. 6 SAFECASE SERIES 4000 The SafeCase Series 4000 is a durable, rugged portable computer designed to be operated under extremely harsh environmental conditions normally encountered at industrial and commercial locations. The computer is constructed with a four slot passive backplane and three full-size open bus slots to allow the user to customize it with industry standard add-in boards. These computers are designed with dual cooling fans to control heat build-up, are fully gasketed to prevent the penetration of moisture and dust particles, and has a shock mounted disk drive which together enhance its service life. The locations and sites under which these computers are generally operated are unlike the environmental conditions under which the plastic notebook and laptop computers are operated. To complement the durability of the SafeCase Series 4000, its sturdy aluminum carrying case has been designed to withstand excessive mechanical loads. SAFECASE SERIES 5000 The SafeCase Series 5000 is a color CRT computer monitor designed with a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels, positive pressure fan and filter which protects against internal damage from airborne dust particles, and is mountable in a 19" equipment rack. This monitor can be interfaced with a touch screen adapter. The color CRT computer monitor is available in 14" and 20" diagonal models. SAFECASE SERIES 7000 The SafeCase Series 7000 is a microcomputer designed for applications which require an industrial computer to be mounted on a wall or attached to machinery or other equipment. The features of this microcomputer include a six slot passive backplane and plug-in CPU board, a positive pressure, filtered cooling system, two drives which will accommodate either floppy or hard disks in addition to a 150 watt power supply. IPD PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT The Company's engineering strategy is to continue to develop differentiated microprocessor based capabilities that can be delivered in "open-systems" using industry standard technology. Through this product development strategy, the Company is able to provide highly reliable and readily available microcomputers that are compatible with "off-the-shelf" application software and hardware. These microcomputers can also provide a much greater degree of system availability to users by focusing on reliability as its main feature. Product development during calendar 1997 will be concentrated on the completion of and revisions to the previously announced SafeCase 400 product. Revisions will also be made to the current SafeCase 4000 product line to increase functionality and reduce cost. In addition, the Company will continue to extend its products offerings to include high-end computer platforms. These enhancements will include the latest Pentium, Pentium Pro and/or Sun Sparc processors. 7 SALES AND MARKETING IPD Revenues derived from the IPD are approximately 53% in-house direct sales, approximately 42% from sales representatives and approximately 5% from catalog distributors sales. IED Revenues derived from the Company's IED are 100% direct in-house sales. DIRECT SALES The Company's SafeCase Series of computer products are primarily marketed through commissioned third-party sales representatives. These sales representatives are teamed with in-house sales managers and are assigned to territories within the United States. The Company believes that this method of selling leads to increased account penetration, proper management of its products, and enhanced customer service which create and maintain the foundation for long-term relationships with its customers. The Company's in-house sales personnel receive a salary in addition to commission, which is based upon a percentage of their sales. The Company believes that its past and future growth depends in large measure on its ability to attract and retain qualified sales representatives and sales management personnel. The Company promotes its products and services through general and trade advertising, participation in trade shows and through telemarketing. The Company believes that a significant percentage of new customers of its SafeCase Series of computer products originates through word-of-mouth referrals from existing customers and industry members, such as manufacturers representatives. Additionally, the sales personnel of its IPD seek to capitalize on customer relationships that have been developed by its IED personnel. Sales leads developed by this synergy are then jointly pursued. The IPD's customer base of over 200 accounts consists primarily of Fortune 500 companies in all industry segments within the United States. OTHER METHODS OF SALES Sales of the IPD are primarily through commissioned sales representatives and its in-house direct sales force. The Company also has an arrangement with two catalog distributors that offer industrial computer products and related peripherals. The SafeCase 4000 product is sold through catalog distribution. This method of sales currently accounts for approximately 5% of IPD's total revenue. All in-house sales personnel are located at the Company's principal executive offices in Houston, Texas. The IPD does not anticipate hiring direct regional sales managers who would be located in other states. 8 GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS Sales to branches of the United States government have accounted for less than 1% of total revenue. CUSTOMERS The Company's top ten customers (which varied from period to period) accounted in the aggregate for approximately 76%, 90% and 86% of the Company's total revenue during 1994, 1995 and the nine month period ended September 30, 1996, respectively. The Company had one customer that accounted for 39%, 62% and 40% of the Company's total revenue for the same periods. Based upon historical results and existing relationships with customers, the Company believes that a substantial portion of its total revenue and gross profit will continue to be derived from sales to existing customers. There are no long-term commitments by such customers to purchase products or services from the Company. Sales of the Company's computer products are typically made on a purchase order basis. A significant reduction in orders from any of the Company's largest customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Similarly, the loss of any one of the Company's largest customers or the failure of any one of such customers to pay its accounts receivable on a timely basis could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company's largest customers will continue to place orders with the Company or that orders by such customers will continue at their previous levels. There can be no assurance that the Company's customers for its engineering services will continue to enter into contracts with the Company for such services or that existing contracts will not be terminated. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- "Business" and "Customers." CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SUPPORT The Company provides service and technical support to its customers in varying degrees depending upon the product line and on customer contractual arrangements. The Company's Houston based technical support staff provides initial telephone trouble shooting services for end-user customers and distributors. These services include isolating and verifying reported product failures, authorizing product returns and tracking completion of repaired goods in support of customer requirements. Technical support also provides on-site engineering support in the event that a technical issue can not be resolved over the telephone. The Company generally provides end-user purchasers of its systems with a one year warranty. DEPENDENCE UPON SUPPLIERS The Company's business depends upon its ability to obtain an adequate supply of products and parts at competitive prices and on reasonable terms. The Company's suppliers are not obligated to have products on hand for timely delivery to the Company nor can they guarantee product availability in sufficient quantities to meet the Company's demands. There can be no assurance that such products will be available as required by the Company at prices or on terms acceptable to the Company. The 9 Company procures a majority of its computers, computer systems and computer components from distributors in order to obtain competitive pricing, maximize product availability and maintain quality control. In some cases, the Company's computer components are purchased through a single source. The Company does not always have a long term purchasing contract in place to purchase computer components from single sources. In the normal course of business, the Company executes blanket purchase orders with its major suppliers for a period of one year in order to maintain competitive pricing and service. The purchase orders include provisions for the delivery, on a monthly basis, of an adequate supply of computer parts to fulfill the Company's orders for a one year period. The Company relies on a few key contract manufacturers for the manufacture of some components used in the assembly of its microcomputers. Although such subcontracting arrangements offer cost and capacity advantages, and would eliminate the need to incur certain capital expenditures associated with manufacturing, reliance on third party manufacturers gives the Company less control over the manufacturing process for these components than if it undertook such activities itself. Any failure of such subcontractors to manufacture and deliver components as planned, or any problems with the quality of such components, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations. The Company purchases from other manufacturers substantially all peripheral devices and components used in its products. A majority of the components and peripherals are available from a number of different suppliers, although certain major items are procured from single sources. The Company believes that alternate sources could be developed for such single source items, if necessary, however, in the event that certain peripheral or component shortages were to occur, it could have an adverse effect on the Company's operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to obtain the necessary computer components from its single sources on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. There can be no assurance that such relationship will continue or that, in the event of a termination of its relationship, it would be able to obtain alternative sources of supply without a material disruption in the Company's ability to provide products to its customers. Any material disruption in the Company's supply of products would have a material adverse effect on the Company' financial condition and results of operations. RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE The business in which the Company competes is characterized by rapid technological change and frequent introduction of new products and product enhancements. The Company's success depends in large part on its ability to identify and obtain products that meet the changing requirements of the marketplace. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify and offer products necessary to remain competitive or avoid losses related to obsolete inventory and drastic price reductions. The Company attempts to maintain a level of inventory required to meet its near term delivery requirements by relying on the ready availability of products from its principal suppliers. Accordingly, the failure of the Company's suppliers to maintain adequate inventory levels of computer products demanded by the Company's existing and potential customers and to react effectively to new product introductions could have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition and 10 results of operations. In addition, certain of its computer products are subject to manufacturer or distributor allocations, which limit the number of units available to the Company, therefore, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to offer new products or product enhancements in sufficient quantities to satisfy customer demand. Failure of the Company to gain sufficient access to new products or product enhancements could also have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES The Company's success depends in part upon its proprietary technology, and relies primarily on trade secrecy and confidentiality agreements to establish and protect its rights in its proprietary technology. The Company does not own the rights to any U.S. or foreign patents. There can be no assurance that the Company's present protective measures will be adequate to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of its technology or independent third party development of the same or similar technology. Although the Company's competitive position could be affected by its ability to protect its proprietary and trade secret information, the Company believes other factors, such as the technical expertise and knowledge of the Company's management and technical personnel, and the timeliness and quality of support services provided by the Company, to be more significant in maintaining the Company's competitive position. EMPLOYEES As of December 31, 1996, the Company employed approximately 48 individuals. Of these, approximately four were employed in sales, marketing and customer services, 40 were employed in engineering and technical production positions and four were employed in administration, finance and MIS. The Company believes that its ability to recruit and retain highly skilled and experienced technical, sales and management personnel has been, and will continue to be, critical to its ability to execute its business plan. None of the Company's employees are represented by a labor union or are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. The Company believes that relations with its employees are good. COMPETITION The Company competes against various companies across its different product lines. The Company's line of industrial portable computers compete with products manufactured by Fieldworks, Dolch and Kontron. The Company's industrial computer products which are mountable in a 19" equipment rack compete with products from Advantek, Contec and Industrial Computer Source. There is also competition from much larger suppliers of commercial grade computers, such as Compaq, Dell, Toshiba and IBM. This commercial competition effectively sets pricing for the Company's product line, since the Company's customers are willing to pay a premium for industrial grade computers which is usually limited to approximately two times the equivalent of commercial grade products. 11 The Company believes that its products compete effectively based on its engineering responsiveness to specific industrial market requirements, the resulting functional specialization of its products, and its strategy of focusing on relatively "sheltered" market niches where major competitors have difficulty in tailoring their offerings to specific application requirements. These strategies help offset the greater name recognition and broader service and support resources of the Company's major competitors. The Company is engaged in business activities that are targeted to industrial markets which are less competitive and typically generate greater profit margins. The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in the business in which it operates are price and performance, product availability, technical expertise, adherence to industry standards, financial stability, service support and reputation. The pricing competition for the Company's IPD segment is from large manufacturers of commercial grade computer products. The IPD's pricing of its computer product line is governed by pricing in the commercial market. The pricing competition of the IED segment has intensified as a result of an increase in temporary personnel contracting agencies who can perform services at a higher volume level and lower profit margin. Some of the Company's current and potential competitors have longer operating histories and financial, sales, marketing, manufacturing, distribution, technical and other competitive resources which are substantially greater than those of the Company. As a result, the Company's competitors may be able to adapt more quickly to changes in customer demands or to commit resources to sales and service of its products than the Company has available. Such competitors could also seek to increase their presence in the markets where the Company is providing sales and services by creating strategic alliances with other competitors of the Company, by offering new or improved products and services to the Company's customers or increasing their efforts to gain and retain market share through competitive pricing. FACILITIES The Company does not own any real property and currently leases all of its existing facilities. The Company leases its principal executive offices in Houston, Texas, which consists of approximately 18,155 square feet that has been divided into administrative offices, computer production operations and warehouse facilities. This lease will expire on August 31, 2000. The Company also leases office space which consists of approximately 180 square feet in Clarksburg, West Virginia, for the purpose of providing an office facility for engineering and technical employees who reside in that State. This lease will expire on May 31, 1997. The Company believes that suitable facilities will be available as needed. HISTORY Industrial Data Systems, Inc., a Texas corporation, was incorporated in May 1985, to provide engineering consulting services to the pipeline divisions of major integrated oil companies. The Company grew slowly to ten employees in 1989. At that time, a strategic decision was made by management to enter the industrial computer marketplace. In 1989, the Company designed and built its first industrial computer and in 1991, hired its first marketing manager. The Company continued 12 to support both businesses and developed its industrial computer business through nationwide advertising. Its product sales grew through the creation of new product lines. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements including the Notes thereto, included elsewhere in this Registration Statement. OVERVIEW The Company was formed in 1985 to engage in the business of providing engineering consulting services to the pipeline divisions of major integrated oil and gas companies. For the period 1985 through 1989, most of its revenues were derived from the IED segment. In 1989, the Company introduced its IPD segment and has continued to introduce new products to the marketplace. The IPD segment has generated sales as a percent of total revenue of 55%, 30% and 34.8%, for 1994, 1995 and the nine months of 1996, respectively, while the IED segment has generated sales as a percent of total revenue of 45%, 70% and 65.2% for the same period. The Company commenced operations at its current facility on February 1, 1994. The computer products are assembled and distributed from its facility in Houston, Texas. The gross margin varies between each of its operating segments. Computer product sales have produced a gross margin ranging from 26.8% to 35.4% over the past two years and nine months ended September 30, 1996, due to the intense price competition characteristic of the computer products market. The gross margin for pipeline engineering services, which reflects direct labor costs, has ranged from 29.1% to 37.5% for the same period. The variation is primarily attributable to the pricing and the mix of services provided, and to the level of direct labor as a component of cost during any given period. The gross margin for Industrial Data Systems Corporation, which includes both product sales and pipeline consulting services, has varied between 29.2% and 36.4% since 1994. This variation reflects the different mix of product sales and the amount of revenue derived from pipeline engineering consulting services from period to period. The gross margin for computer product sales was 34.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, primarily due to the Company's decision to lower gross margin requirements in order to increase sales volume, coupled with one higher margin sale. Revenue from computer product sales accounted for 34.8% of the Company's total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The gross margin for pipeline engineering consulting services was 29.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, primarily due to an increase in payroll expense not being offset by an increase in billing rates to customers. Revenue from pipeline engineering consulting services accounted for 65.2% of the Company's total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. 13 The Company's largest supplier, Microbus, Inc., a vendor of CPU boards accounted for approximately 18% of total purchases for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The CPU boards are purchased on individual purchase orders. The Company does not have a long term contract with Microbus, Inc. to purchase the CPU boards. In the event that this supplier could not provide CPU boards to the Company, the Company believes that it would not have an adverse affect on the Company's results of operations due to an abundance of suppliers of CPU boards in the marketplace. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain financial data derived from the Company's consolidated statements of operations and indicates percentage of total revenue for each item.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 TOTAL REVENUE. Total revenue increased $643,380, or 15% from $4,152,510 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, when compared to $3,509,130 for the same period in 1995. Revenue from computer products, which comprised 34.8% of total revenue, increased 29.2%. The increase in computer products revenue was generally attributable to increased sales of its SafeCase 4000 product. Revenue from consulting services, which comprised 65.2% of total revenue, increased 15%. Revenue from pipeline engineering consulting services increased as a result of additional blanket service contracts with new clients. The IED had much greater diversity in its client base, with an 14 increase from one to six clients during the nine months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the same period in 1995. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased by $132,534 or 11.5% from $1,147,999 in the first nine months of 1995 to $1,280,533 in the first nine months of 1996, while gross margin decreased from 32.7% in the first nine months of 1995 to 30.8% in the first nine months of 1996. The gross margin for the IED decreased from 32.9% in 1995 to 29.1% in the corresponding period in 1996. The decrease was attributable to an increase in payroll expense not being offset by an increase in billing rates to clients. The gross margin for the IPD increased from 32.2% in the first nine months of 1995 to 34.1% for the same period in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to a sales blend of products that have higher gross margins. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $334,809 or 37% from $532,582 in the first nine months of 1995 to $907,341 in the corresponding period in 1996. As a percentage of total revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 15.2% in the nine months ended September 30, 1995 to 21.9% for the corresponding 1996 period. Of the dollar increase a large portion, or 5.8% was attributable to an increase in personnel, compensation costs and lease expenses which were expended in anticipation of future growth. OPERATING INCOME. Operating income decreased by $250,520 or 41.6% from $602,022 in the first nine months of 1995 to $351,502 in the same period in 1996. Operating income decreased as a percentage of total revenue from 17.1% in the 1995 period to 8.5% in the 1996 period. The decrease in operating income was a result of a decrease in the gross profit of the IED, coupled with increased selling, general and administrative expenses. OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Other income increased by $36,118 or 36.1% from $100,034 in the first nine months of 1995 to $136,152 in the first nine months of 1996. This increase was primarily due to gains in marketable securities, which were slightly offset by additional interest expense due to higher utilization of the Company's line of credit. NET INCOME. Net income decreased by $129,500 or 29.5% from $439,056 in the 1995 period to $309,556 in the 1996 period. Net income as a percentage of total revenue decreased from 12.5% in the first nine months of 1995 to 7.5% in the same period in 1996. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 TOTAL REVENUE. Total revenue increased by $2,813,530 or 164.4% from $1,711,656 in 1994 to $4,525,186 in 1995. Revenue from the IPD, which comprised 29.9% of total revenue in 1995 increased by $413,411 or 43.9%. The increase in IPD revenue was generally attributable to increased sales to new and existing customers which resulted from the hiring of additional sales personnel, in addition to the introduction of new product lines. Revenue from the IED which comprised 70.1% of total revenue in 1995 increased by $2,400,119 or 311.6%. The increase in IED revenue was primarily attributable to increased project activity of its only customer. 15 GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased by $696,299 or 111.7% from $623,184 in 1994 to $1,319,483 in 1995. The gross margin for the IED decreased from 37.5% in 1994 to 29.9% in 1995. The gross margin for IPD decreased from 35.5% in 1994 to 27.5% in 1995. In anticipation of future growth, management made a decision to increase the manufacturing capabilities of the IPD, which affected the gross margin due to increased personnel and related costs. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $520,193 or 166.1% from $313,280 in 1994 to $833,473 in 1995. As a percentage of total revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 18.3% in 1994 to 18.4% in 1995. The dollar increase was primarily attributable to an increase in general and administrative expenses and sales compensation to accommodate the Company's growth. Personnel costs, the largest other component of general and administrative expenses, increased at a slower rate than total revenue. Certain general and administrative expenses are relatively fixed, and the Company was able to leverage these expenses as revenue increased during 1995. OPERATING INCOME. Operating income increased by $164,463 or 54.1% from $303,916 in 1994 to $468,379 in 1995. Operating income decreased as a percentage of total revenue from 17.8% in 1994 to 10.3% in 1995. OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Other income increased by $148,045 from $(4,942) in 1994 to $143,152 in 1995. This increase was primarily due to gains in marketable securities, which were slightly offset by additional interest expense due to higher utilization of the Company's line of credit. NET INCOME. Net income after pro forma income taxes increased by $180,564 or 96.6% from $186,859 in 1994 to $367,423 in 1995. Net income after pro forma income taxes decreased as a percentage of total revenue from 10.9% in 1994 to 8.1% in 1995. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Historically, the Company has satisfied its cash requirements principally through borrowings under its line of credit and through operations. As of September 30, 1996, the Company's cash position, including marketable securities, was sufficient to meet its working capital requirements. In addition, the Company had, as of September 30, 1996, $250,000 in additional advances available under its line of credit agreement with a bank. The Company's working capital was $1,158,758 and $1,655,491 at December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1996, respectively. CASH FLOW Operating activities used net cash totaling $169,209 and $317,205 during 1994 and 1995, and $118,727 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The Company has not generated cash flow from operating activities due to the working capital requirements resulting from the rapid growth of the Company. Trade accounts receivable increased $167,109 and $281,908 for 1994 and 1995, respectively, and increased $229,157 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Inventory increased by $44,638, $42,200, and $216,667 for the same periods. 16 Investing activities used cash totaling $36,493,$28,805 and $243,182, respectively, during the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995 and the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The Company's investing activities that used cash during these periods were primarily related to cash advances to an affiliate (Thermaire, Inc.) and capital expenditures. Financing activities provided (used) cash totaling $(8,548) and $16,375 during 1994 and 1995. During 1994, $81,227 was provided from the issuance of Common Stock. For the first nine months of 1996, financing activities provided net cash of $92,324 as a result of the sale of treasury stock, and an increase in borrowings of $50,000 under its line of credit. The Company's primary source of additional financing is from amounts available on its line of credit ($250,000 at September 30, 1996), and the proceeds of $1,000,000 from a private placement of common stock. The line of credit has been used principally to finance accounts receivable and inventory purchases. Of the proceeds received from the sale of securities, $350,000 is expected to be used for working capital, and the balance of $650,000 to be used to purchase Thermaire, Inc. During the next twelve months, the Company expects to incur an estimated $100,000 for capital expenditures, a majority of which is expected to be incurred for specialized computer production equipment. The actual amount and timing of such capital expenditures may vary substantially depending upon, among other things, the Company's level of growth. ASSET MANAGEMENT The Company's cash flow from operations has been affected primarily by the timing of its collection of trade accounts receivable. The Company typically sells its products and services on short-term credit terms and seeks to minimize its credit risk by performing credit checks and conducting its own collection efforts. The Company had trade accounts receivable of $340,605 and $622,512 at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively, and $851,669 at September 30, 1996. The number of days' sales outstanding in trade accounts receivable was 73 days, 50 days and 56 days at those dates. Bad debt expenses have been insignificant (less than .01%) for each of these periods. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY The Company has a lease for a term of five years in Houston, Texas, which consists of 18,155 square feet of office space, which will expire on August 31, 2000. This lease has been divided into administrative offices, computer production operations and warehouse facilities. Management believes that it has the ability to sustain a 100% sales growth without having to expand its facilities or relocate its offices. The Company also leases a small office in Clarksburg, West Virginia to provide a facility for its technical and engineering personnel who reside in that State. The Company does not own any real property. Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $33,910, $79,269 and $75,000, respectively. The Company is obligated to pay rent expense under its lease in the amounts of $109,000, $109,000, $109,000 and $73,000 for each of the years ending 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000, respectively. 17 SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Company's Common Stock as of the date of this Registration Statement, by (i) each person or entity known to the Company to own beneficially 5% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (ii) each of the Company's directors, (iii) each of the named executive officers, and (iv) all officers and directors as a group.

See accompanying notes to these consolidated financial statements. 32 INDUSTRIAL DATA SYSTEMS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (The Information Subsequent to December 31, 1995 is Unaudited) 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: ORGANIZATION - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Industrial Data Systems Corporation (IDS), a Nevada corporation, and its wholly-owned subsidiary Industrial Data Systems, Inc., a Texas corporation, d.b.a. IDS Technical Services. Effective August 1, 1994, IDS (the Company) exchanged 9,500,000 shares of its common stock for the outstanding shares of Industrial Data Systems, Inc. (Texas), a corporation wholly owned by the majority stockholders of the Company. This transaction involved companies under common control and, therefore, is accounted for similar to a pooling of interests. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Industrial Data Systems, Inc. (Texas) beginning January 1, 1994. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. INVENTORY - Inventory is composed of computer components and finished goods and is carried at the lower of cost or market value on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of accounting. The majority of inventory at December 31, 1994 and 1995 and September 30, 1996 consisted of computer components. MARKETABLE SECURITIES - Marketable securities to be held to maturity are stated at amortized cost. Marketable securities classified as available-for-sale are stated at market value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of deferred income taxes. If a decline in market value is determined to be other than temporary, any such loss is charged to earnings. Trading securities are stated at market value, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment is stated at cost, adjusted for accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from five to seven years. INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS - Investments in real estate limited partnerships were carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair market value of the underlying real estate. These investments were assigned to two officers, who are also major stockholders of the Company, during 1995 in lieu of cash compensation. INCOME TAXES - IDS accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement and tax bases of its existing assets and liabilities. Income tax expense or benefit 33 INDUSTRIAL DATA SYSTEMS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (The Information Subsequent to December 31, 1995 is Unaudited) 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED): represents the current tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the tax effect of the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities during the period. Prior to its merger with IDS in fiscal 1994, Industrial Data Systems, Inc. (Texas) was a Subchapter S Corporation as provided under the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, the taxable income or loss for this entity was reported in the stockholders' individual tax returns. Upon its merger with IDS, deferred taxes were recorded on the date of the merger for the differences between the financial and tax bases of its assets and liabilities at that date. Pro forma income taxes have been provided in the accompanying statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1994 as if the Company had been taxable for the entire year. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - Cash and cash equivalents include cash in bank and investments in highly liquid money market mutual funds. USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying results. Actual results could differ from these estimates. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE - Net income per common share was computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of average common shares outstanding. There were no common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods presented. For purposes of computing the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, common stock held in escrow accounts for issuance upon the closing of the contingent purchase transaction (see Note 11) and upon payment of the $1,000,000 note issued in exchange for 2,499,999 shares of common stock (see Note 9) have not been reflected as outstanding. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION - The accompanying financial information as of September 30, 1996 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1996 has been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present such information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 34 INDUSTRIAL DATA SYSTEMS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (The Information Subsequent to December 31, 1995 is Unaudited) 2. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK: The Company manufactures and distributes industrial and portable computers and computer monitors to commercial companies primarily in the United States and provides pipeline engineering services primarily to major integrated oil and gas companies. The caption product sales in the accompanying income statement represents sales of industrial and portable computers. The caption consulting fees represents pipeline engineering service revenues. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The Company assesses its credit risk and provides an allowance for doubtful accounts for any accounts which it deems doubtful for collection. The Company maintains deposits in banks which may exceed the amount of federal deposit insurance available. Management periodically assesses the financial condition of the institutions and believes that any possible deposit loss is minimal. 3.

COMMITMENTS: The Company has issued 600,000 shares of its common stock to acquire another company in a contingent purchase transaction. These shares are currently held in an escrow account pending completion of the acquisition by the Company exercising its option to repurchase the shares of the Company's stock held in escrow for one dollar per share.

Should the Company not complete the property purchase, it will lose its $100 earnest money deposit. The Company's financial statements do not reflect the accounts of the company to be acquired as of any date or for any period covered by the accompanying financial statements. Should the business combination be completed, it will be accounted for on the purchase method of accounting. The shares of common stock issued by the Company and held in escrow have been reflected as issued and outstanding in the accompanying financial statements.

Time is of the essence of this contract. Upon failure of Buyer to comply herewith, Sellers' sole remedy shall be to retain the earnest money as liquidated damages. If title is found objectionable and is not cleared within the time herein provided, or upon failure of Seller to comply herewith for any other reason, Buyer may demand back the earnest money, thereby releasing Seller from this contract, or Buyer may either enforce specific performance hereof or seek such other relief as may be provided by law.

THE COMPANY INDUSTRIAL DATA SYSTEMS CORPORATION (the "Company") is a Nevada Corporation organized on June 22, 1994. The Company subsequently acquired Industrial Data Systems Inc. of Texas. (See "Certain Transactions") The Company's current statutory office is located at 4350 East Sunset Road, Suite 101, Henderson, Nevada 89014. The Company's operational headquarters is currently located at 14900 Woodham, Suite 170, Houston, Texas 77073. The Company is engaged in business activity in Texas in the areas of engineering and technical support services for the pipeline industry as well as the design manufacturing and marketing of ruggedized computer hardware suitable for industrial and construction applications. It is this secondary area in which the Company plans to focus its expansion into southern Nevada through the use of proceeds from this offering. (See "The Company") THE OFFERING SECURITIES OFFERED: 500,000 Shares of Common Stock, par value $.001, to be offered on a "best efforts" basis at .30 per share COMMON STOCK TO BE OUTSTANDING AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THE OFFERING: 10,000,000 of 75,000,000 authorized SHARES HELD BY THE PUBLIC: If maximum ($150,000 is raised)....................... 500,000 Shares If minimum ($75,000 is raised)....................... 250,000 Shares USE OF PROCEEDS If the minimum number of 250,000 shares is sold the Company will net approximately $58,250 of $75,000 raised.

The balance of the proceeds will be used to continue the predecessor Company's business and expand its computer division into southern Nevada. (See "Use of Proceeds") RISK FACTORS Investment of the Shares offered by the Company involve a high degree of risk. Prospective investors considering subscription of these shares should be able to sustain a loss of their entire investment without undue hardship. (See "Risk Factors" and "Dilution") RISK FACTORS THE SHARES BEING OFFERED HEREIN INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED EXTREMELY SPECULATIVE. THESE SECURITIES SHOULD BE PURCHASED BY ONLY THOSE PERSONS WHO CAN AFFORD THE LOSS OF THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT. THE PURCHASE OF THESE SHARES INVOLVES NUMEROUS RISK FACTORS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH A NEW VENTURE, RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH A SMALL DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY TRYING TO COMPETE WITH LARGER, MORE ESTABLISHED COMPANIES, RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH STRONG COMPETITION, AND RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION FROM THE PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD READ THE ENTIRE OFFERING MEMORANDUM CAREFULLY AND CONSIDER IF SUCH AN INVESTMENT IS SUITABLE FOR THEM. RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE OFFERING POSSIBLE LOSS OF ENTIRE INVESTMENT Investors could lose all or part of their investment in the securities should they decide to invest. SUBSTANTIAL AND IMMEDIATE DILUTION This offering involves immediate and substantial dilution in book value from the public offering price. BEST EFFORTS OFFERING The offering of these securities is being done on a "best efforts" basis. No individual firm or corporation has agreed to purchase any of the shares offered herein. Provisions have been made to deposit all funds received from the sale of these securities in escrow. If the minimum shares are not subscribed for within one (1) calendar year from the effective date of this Offering Memorandum, all funds being held in escrow will be returned. The escrow period may last up to one (1) calendar year, so subscribers will not have use of their funds for up to one (1) full year, nor will they receive any interest for the use of their money should the offering not be completed. NO PUBLIC MARKET FOR SECURITY Prior to this offering there was no public market for the shares being offered. Should the offering be successful, and no representation can be given that it will be, there is no assurance that a market will develop. If such a market develops there is no assurance that the market price will be equal to or greater than the offering price. This could result in a loss of all or part of the money invested in these shares. NO DIVIDENDS ANTICIPATED The Company has not paid any dividends nor does it contemplate or anticipate paying a dividend in the foreseeable future. RISKS OF ADVERSE ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION; OTHER SALES The shares of common stock described in this Offering Memorandum are offered under an exemption from federal registration as contained In Section 504 of Regulation D. Because the offering is to be made exclusively in Nevada, where the securities have been registered, and because delivery of a disclosure document is required under Nevada law, it is the Company's position that the offering is not subject to the federal limitations on the manner of offering or resale of securities. However, it is possible that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "S.E.C.") may seek to impose such requirements, which could cause the offering to be terminated, result in penalties or assessments against the Company, or result in shares purchased in this offering being considered "restricted shares". If the shares were to become restricted, they would not be saleable in any location by purchasers in the absence of registration of the shares or use of any exemption from registration. The Company does not intend to register the shares described in this Offering Memorandum with the S.E.C. Presently there are 9,500,000 shares outstanding, all of which are restricted shares. While resale of the presently outstanding shares is limited, it is possible that these shares could be sold by federal registration or an exemption from such registration, (17 C.F.R. S230.144 "Rule 144") is the most commonly available exemption. Possible future sales of the presently outstanding shares under registration or an exemption from registration may have a depressive effect on the price of the Company's stock in any market which may develop. 2 LIMITATION ON RESALE The shares are registered only in the State of Nevada and may not be resold or assigned outside of Nevada without registration/qualification from such laws. The Company has no obligation or intent to register or qualify the shares for sales outside Nevada. Accordingly, the ability of investors to resell shares pursuant to this Offering Memorandum may be limited. NOT AN INVESTMENT COMPANY Because the Company seeks to obtain public financing prior to entry into specific, identifiable business interests, it must carefully conduct its activities so as to avoid becoming inadvertently classified as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") which classification would involve a number of negative considerations. Accordingly, the Company intends to expend a majority of proceeds hereof for the investigation, evaluation and acquisition of business opportunities as soon as reasonably practicable. Should the Company delay in locating and obtaining opportunities and in expanding a majority of the proceeds of this offering on opportunities other than investment securities, the S.E.C. may find that the Company is deemed subject to provisions of the 1940 Act, and direct the Company to register under such Act. The Company would vigorously resist any such order or finding by the S.E.C. However, whether the S.E.C. or the Company prevailed in such dispute, the Company would be damaged by the costs and delays involved. NO CUMULATIVE VOTING OR PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHTS There are no pre-emptive rights in connection with the Company's common stock. The shareholders' purchasing in this offering may be further diluted in their percentage ownership of the Company in the event additional shares are issued by the Company in the future. Cumulative voting in the election of the directors is not allowed. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock, present in person or by proxy, will be able to elect all of the Company's Board of Directors. (See "Capitalization" and "Description of Common Stock") PURCHASES BY AFFILIATED PARTIES Officers, directors, principal shareholders and affiliates may purchase shares owned by non-affiliated parties and increase the holdings of affiliated parties. This reduction in shares owned by the non-affiliated public shareholders could result in limited level of interest by the investing public and shareholders may lose their entire investment. Such purchases may be necessary to assure that the minimum amount of escrow will be met. Affiliates will not purchase in excess of 10% of the offering and no representation is given that they will insure the offerings successful completion. RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE COMPANY'S ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT RECENT DEVELOPMENTS The Company was recently reorganized via the acquisition of Industrial Data System Inc. of Texas by Industrial Data Systems Corporation of Nevada. (See "Certain Transactions") The Company believes that it can grow through development and expansion into the southern Nevada area while keeping its technical services business in Texas. Such expansion could prove very costly. Should costs exceed management expectations or revenues fall short of projections, the negative effect on the Company would be substantial. Prospective investors should be aware of unforeseen risks that may occur in the Company's proposed expansion. DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL The Company is extremely dependent on Key Personnel. A loss of such personnel for any reason could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business. Specifically the loss of William A. Coskey 3 would be catastrophic to the Company. Currently the Company has a key man life insurance policy on Mr. Coskey for $600.000. No assurance is given that the Company could continue as an ongoing concern even with proceeds from this policy. Additionally, because of the Company's somewhat limited resources, personnel to assist the Company's expansion plans may not be available in the marketplace laden with larger better capitalized companies more able to recruit and reward desired personnel. Without the ability to keep existing personnel and hire qualified new personnel to assist the Company in its expansion no assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in its endeavors. POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST Conflicts of interest may from time to time arise. Management will endeavor to resolve conflicts of interest in shareholders behalf notwithstanding such conflicts may have an adverse effect upon the Company and pose additional risk to shareholders. (See "Certain Transactions" and "Conflicts of Interest") RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE COMPANY'S COMPUTER BUSINESS SUBSTANTIAL COMPETITION The computer industry is one of the most competitive industries in the world. Competition comes from both foreign and domestic entities. The size and scope of many of these companies cannot be overstated. The Company's small stature and limited financial capacity pose certain problems and risks to shareholders. Economics of scale will offer a substantial advantage to the companies in the industry and while the Company hopes to be a "niche" player, larger companies hold substantial advantages and can easily penetrate any market through competitive pricing advantages gained by economics of scale. Should larger better capitalized computer companies seek entrance into the Company's niche in the market, the competitive pricing may reduce or eliminate the Company's profitability and pose a risk of opportunity loss to the Company. Because of the Company's limited capital, it is doubtful it could sustain such a loss over an extended period of time. This could result in loss of the investors entire investment. CAPITAL INTENSIVE NATURE OF THE BUSINESS The computer business is a very capital intensive business. Once again this puts the Company at a strategic disadvantage. Inventories need to be purchased and such being the case, larger better capitalized companies are able to have a delivery time advantage to customers. If such a disadvantage becomes too great, the Company may seek additional financing. (See "Need for Additional Financing") TECHNOLOGICAL OBSOLESCENCE The computer industry is a fast paced, ever changing business. Such rapid change in technology often renders today technologies useless in tomorrows world. Once again the advantage is with large well capitalized companies that have superior research and development divisions. No representation is made to prospective shareholders that the Company will continue to develop new and additional products and technologies. 4 RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE COMPANY'S ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT BUSINESS SUBSTANTIAL COMPETITION As in the computer business, the pipeline service and engineering field is dominated by large established and well capitalized firms. The Company has established itself as a small efficient entity, but it is still competing with companies who by economics of scale are in a position of extreme advantage. CYCLICAL NATURE OF THE BUSINESS The Company's services are performed primarily for oil and gas companies. As such, these services are subject to the risk of a cyclical industry. Oil and gas prices are extremely volatile and impacted by many factors on a global scale. Hence, the Company could be negatively impacted by cyclical factors in the global economy over which it has no control. This translates to additional risk for prospective investors. RELIANCE ON MAJOR CUSTOMERS From time to time the Company may do a large portion of its engineering business with one or more major customers. The Company currently has one major client, Exxon, which provides the Company with 50% of the Company's revenue through its pipeline engineering services. The Company has no written agreements with any such customer to assure future level of sales. The loss of such a major customer would have an extremely adverse impact on the Company's operations. The factors of dependence on major customers coupled with the cyclical nature of the oil and gas industry, which the Company serves, combine to make this portion of the Company's business extremely subject to volatility. This volatility translates to investors risk. Prospective investors should be aware that their entire investment is at risk in such a volatile industry. RISK FACTORS RELATING THE COMPANY'S OVERALL BUSINESS, FINANCES AND CAPITALIZATION RISK ASSOCIATED WITH EXPANSION The Company wishes to use the proceeds to finance its expansion of its computer business. Such expansion is costly and no assurances can be given that it will be fruitful. The expansion will occur in two ways. First, the Company will seek to expand market for its ruggerized computers by more aggressively marketing through trade journals and trade show in the construction and industrial areas. Second, the Company hopes to expand the target of its geographic bounds westward into southern Nevada. The Company views this expansion as a great opportunity to capitalize on the growth of construction in this area. Prospective investors should be aware that corporate expansion in both areas adds risk to the Company because of the increased level of expenses. No assurance can be given to prospective investors that such expenses will ultimately result in increased corporate revenue. UNINSURED LIABILITY As the Company pursues its business, it may a party to a lawsuit. Should the Company sustain an uninsured liability, the limited capital of the Company could be completely depleted forcing the Company into bankruptcy. In such case it is likely shareholders would lose their entire investment. NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING The survival of the Company may at some time depend upon additional financing. No assurance can be made that such financing would be available, and if available that it take either the form of debt or equity. In either case, the financing could have a negative impact on the conditions of the Company and its shareholders. 5 To seek additional financing, the Company may pursue one of the following methods: (1) DEBT FINANCING IN THE FORM OF A LOAN. The loan could be from an individual or financial institution. Such loan could put the Company at risk for amounts greater than its assets and if such a loan was not promptly repaid, could result in bankruptcy. In such a case, the shares of the Company would most likely become worthless. (2) EQUITY FINANCING. Equity financing could take the form of either a private placement or a secondary public offering. Either type of equity offering would consist of offering more of the Company's shares for sale at prices that may be below the offering price of this offering. No assurance can be given that such an offering would be successful if attempted. Even if such an offering were to be successful, the existing shareholders from this offering would most likely experience dilution in addition to that disclosed in this Offering Memorandum. (See "Dilution"). PARTNERSHIPS AND JOINT VENTURES The Company's limited capital may necessitate partnership or joint ventures. While no agreements to form partnerships or joint ventures currently exist, the Company could pursue them in the future. Sales revenue would be split among other entities which could negatively affect the Company's potential earnings. No guarantee can be made that if partnerships or joint venture were entered into that they would be profitable. DILUTION Dilution is the difference between the public offering price of a security and the net book value immediately after the offering of said security, reflecting the receipt of net proceeds from the offering. Net book value is the amount that results from subtracting total liabilities from total assets. Net book value per share takes the net book value and divides by the number of shares issued and outstanding. For purposes of determination of dilution of stock only, the value of services (an intangible asset) contributed as capital is excluded from net book value and investment capital amounts stated. In the event that the minimum number of shares are sold and there can be no assurance made that such will be the case, public investors will own 250,000 shares (approximately 2.56%) of the Company's common voting shares then issued and outstanding, for which they will have paid in cash $75,000 (approximately 9.7% of investment capital), and the present shareholders, consisting of officers, directors and founders will own 9,500,000 shares (approximately 97.44%) of the Company's issued and outstanding shares for which they have paid $698,006 (approximately 90.3% of the investment capital). In the event that the maximum number of shares are sold, and no assurance is given that such will be the case, public investors will own 500,000 shares (approximately 5%) of the Company's voting shares then issued and outstanding, for which they will have paid in cash $150,000 (approximately 17.69% of investment capital) and the present shareholders consisting of officers, directors and founders will own 9,500,000 shares (approximately 95%) of the Company's issued and outstanding shares for which they will have paid $698,006 (approximately 82.31%) of investment capital. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, the Company has 9,500,000 issued and outstanding with a net book value of $.0735 per share. Assuming the minimum number of shares being offered, 250,000 shares are sold, the Company will have a net book value of $756,256 (after offering costs) or approximately $.0776 per share. Thus the present stockholders, being officers, directors and founders of the Company will have experienced a substantial increase in the value of their shares from $.0735 to $.0776. Conversely the public investors will experience a substantial and immediate dilution of $.2224 or 74.13% of the offering price paid for such shares. Should the maximum of 500,000 shares be sold, the Company will have a net book value of $827,506 (after offering costs) or approximately $.0828 per share. Thus the present shareholders being the officers, 6 directors and founders will experience a substantial increase in the book value of their shares from $.0735 to $.0828. Conversely the public investors will experience substantial and immediate dilution of $.2172 per share or 72.4% of the offering price paid. Hence one may conclude that if the minimum number of shares are sold, the public investor will have provided approximately 9.7% of the capital and retained 2.56% of the equity, while if the maximum number of shares is sold the public investor will have provided 17.69% of the capital and retained approximately 5% of the equity. 7 THE COMPANY INTRODUCTION INDUSTRIAL DATA SYSTEMS CORPORATION (the "Company") was formed in Nevada on June 22, 1994 for the purpose of designing, manufacturing and marketing ruggetized computers. The Company's local office and statutory office in Nevada is located at 4350 E. Sunset Rd. #101, Henderson, Nevada 89014. The Company's operational office is currently located at 14900 Woodham, Suite 170, Houston, Texas 77073. ACQUISITION On August 1, 1994, the Company acquired through a tax-free exchange of common stock, 100% of Industrial Data Systems, Inc. (a Texas corporation). Industrial Data Systems, Inc. of Texas was founded in 1985 by current president and director William A. Coskey for the purpose of providing engineering services. (See "Certain Transactions"). HISTORY Industrial Data Systems, Inc. (Texas) dba Industrial Data Systems Tech, has been profitable since inception and has grown to a company with two distinct areas of business. Industrial Data Systems Tech continue to service the pipeline industry with a wide range of engineering and design, construction, supervision, material procurement, cost and material control, testing and start-up services. In 1993, Industrial Data Systems Tech was expanded to provide full pipeline services to clients such as Exxon Pipeline Company, Texas Eastern Products Pipeline and Texaco Pipeline Inc. Industrial Data Systems PC, the Company's computer division designs, manufactures and sells industrial PCs for applications in hostile work environments. To date Industrial Data Systems Corporation of Nevada's only activities have been related to corporate organization, the acquisition of Industrial Data Systems (Texas) and the preparation of this Offering Memorandum. 8 SUMMARY HISTORICAL FINANCIAL DATA The selected financial information for the year ended December 31, 1992, for the year ended December 31, 1993 and were compiled from unaudited financials of the acquired company Industrial Data Systems, Inc. (a Texas corporation). This information should be read with the Company's Financial Statement and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus, and is by no means meant to be a complete representation of the Company's financial picture.

The sales of the minimum of 250,000 shares will result in a gross of $75,000 for the Company and should the Company sell all of the Shares offered hereby, the gross proceeds to the Company would be $150,000. The Company anticipates incurring costs related to the Offering. Set forth below are estimates of such costs the Company believes to be accurate. The actual costs of the Offering could be more or less expensive. MINIMUM MAXIMUM -------- -------- Legal and Filing..................... $ 5,000 $ 5,000 Accounting........................... 7,000 7,000 Commissions.......................... 3,750 7,500 Printing............................. 500 500 Miscellaneous........................ 500 500 -------- -------- $16,750 $20,500 After incurring the preceding Offering costs, the Company will receive net proceeds of $58,250 should the minimum dollar amount of $75,000 be raised from the Offering. In the event the maximum of $150,000 is raised from the Offering, the Company will incur offering expenses of $20,500 and receive net proceeds from the Offering of $129,500. After incurring the preceding Offering costs, the Company plans to use the net proceeds from the Offering as noted on page 10. Management wished to point out that these are only estimates and if costs overrun and unforeseen costs occur, such costs will likely have an adverse effect upon the Company's financial condition and pose additional risk for shareholders. In the event that the Company has overestimated costs in any given area, such a surplus would be added to working capital. MINIMUM MAXIMUM ------- -------- Salaries................................ $15,000 $30,000 Inventories............................. 15,000 50,000 Packaging............................... 1,000 2,000 Production Equipment.................... 2,000 4,000 Rent.................................... 6,000 6,000 Utilities............................... 1,200 1,200 Printing................................ 4,000 6,000 Legal................................... 2,000 2,000 Accounting.............................. 2,000 2,000 Advertising............................. 5,000 12,000 Travel.................................. 2,000 5,000 Working Capital......................... 3,050 9,300 ------- -------- $58,250 $129,500 BUSINESS PLAN The "Use of Proceeds" section outlined how the Company plans to use proceeds from the Offering. It should be noted that the Company will still remain operational in Texas operating as Industrial Data Systems Inc. The focus of this Offering is to expand the Company's computer division. The Company hopes revenues will continue from its technical/engineering division, IDS Technical Services to allow additional funds for the computer division to grow and expand particularly into southern Nevada. No 10 assurance can be given that this will be the case and prospective investors are urged to evaluate the Company accordingly. Hence, the following business plan and preceding "Use of Proceeds" are related only to the Company's computer division. Management believes that IDS Technical Services is fully self sustaining. Should IDS Technical Services see a reduction in revenues, the consequences would jeopardize the Company's future plans and possibly threaten the Company's ability to continue to do business. THE MARKET The industrial PC market is expected to increase from sales of $453 million in 1992 to $757 million in 1997. Fully integrated Industrial PCs (IPCs) are expected to grow from $315 million or 69.2% of the 1992 market to $538.4 million or 71.1% of the 1997 market while modular IPCs are expected to grow from 96.7 million or 30.8% of the 1992 market to 28.9% of the 1997 market. (Information provided from Venture Development Corp. of Nantick, MA) THE PRODUCT In the growing industrial PC market, the Company has found its niche by designing, manufacturing and selling industrial PCs that are suitable for hostile work environments. The Industrial Data Systems PCs are personal computers incased in a way that "hardens" them to protect them from vibration, heat, dust, moisture and in some cases electrical flux. The Company has two main products which are similar but do not compete with each other. The "Safecase 4000", intended for industrial use, is a product for extremely hostile environments while the "Powercase 8000" has a lower cost and unlimited uses but is not quite so durable in hostile environments. The Company sees huge opportunities for the "Powercase 8000", intended for commercial use, as various software applications evolve. THE COMPETITION The Company recognizes that there are larger better capitalized firms in the industrial PC business but believes its products to be highly competitive in the current market environment. The Company believes it can be a "niche" player and target particularly harsh environments and develop new software applications for the "Powercase 8000". The Company will endeavor to seek strategic alliances of acquisitions to assist towards this objective. Currently the Company holds no patents or trademarks on its products but is in the process of securing trademarks for the hardened industrial computer design and the name Industrial Data Systems. Although the Company is currently in the process of obtaining trademarks, no assurance or guarantee can be made at this time that the Company trademarks will be granted. As such, any investment in the Company shall not be done in reliance upon the Company obtaining the above trademarks. MARKETING The Company will market its products in three ways. First: The Company will market to trade shows focussing on the construction and industrial conventions and trade shows. Because of the large number of such shows in Las Vegas, the Company sees a golden opportunity upon which it can market its product. Second: The Company will use advertising in trade journals and publications. Such advertising should generate orders as well as leads for the Company's third area of marketing which utilized direct sales representatives. Third: Direct Sales Representatives. These representatives will follow leads from magazine and trade journal ads and market directly to end users as well as wholesalers. 11 Numerous studies have shown Texas and Nevada to be two of the fastest growing states in the nation. Being located in both states will afford the Company the opportunity to market to these fast growing areas with their numerous construction projects. PRODUCT MANUFACTURING The Company operates a manufacturing facility in its Texas location and will explore locating such a facility in southern Nevada if sales justify such a venture. If this were to occur, such cost would be borne by the Company and could negatively affect corporate earnings. PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Because of the Company's limited capital, product development will mainly focus on new applications for the "Powercase 8000". The Company hopes revenues and strategic alliances develop that will allow the Company more opportunity for new product development but no assurance can be given that this will occur. 12 CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth the capitalization of the Company as of the date of this Offering Memorandum and adjusts to reflect the issuance of all shares offered hereby:
AMOUNT AMOUNT OUTSTANDING OUTSTANDING IF MINIMUM IF MAXIMUM TITLE OF CLASS AUTHORIZED OUTSTANDING SHARES SOLD SHARES SOLD - ------------------------------------- ---------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Common Stock $.001 Par Value......... 75,000,000 9,500,000 9,750,000 10,000,000
No assurance can be given that any number of shares offered herein will be sold. DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK The capital stock of the Company consists of 75,000,000 authorized shares of common stock with a par value of one mill ($.001) per share, 9,500,000 shares of which are issued and outstanding on the date hereof. The offering to the public by this Offering Memorandum is 500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $.30 per share with a par value of one mill ($.001) per share. The shares are all of one class, common, with like rights and privileges. Each share is entitled to participate equally in dividends and distributions declared by the Company. Each share is entitled to one (1) vote on each matter for which shareholders are entitled to vote. The shares of common voting stock, when issued and paid for, shall be fully paid and non-assessable and will have no preference, preemptive, conversion or exchange rights. The Company has no senior securities or long-term debt authorized, issued or outstanding, and has no present intention of issuing either such security or debt instrument. All voting is non-cumulative. Accordingly, the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the shares of the Company's common stock will be able to elect all representatives to the Board of Directors, and holders of less than fifty percent (50%) will not be able to elect any of the members of the Board of Directors. OPTIONS, WARRANTS OR CALLS There are no issued or outstanding options, warrants or calls entitling any person to purchase any shares of the Company's common stock. The Company may, however, adopt a plan in the future, pursuant to which options, warrants or calls would be an incentive to attract and maintain their services on behalf of the Company. Presently, the Company has no agreement or understanding, expressed or implied, with anyone concerning such options, warrants or calls entitling the future purchase of the Company's common voting stock, and any such plan will first be submitted to the stockholders of the Company for their approval before becoming effective. SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE All of the 9,500,000 Shares of Common Stock which is owned by William A. Coskey and Hulda L. Coskey issued in reliance on the "private placement" exemption under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Such shares will not be available for sale in the open market without registration except in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Act. In general, under Rule 144 a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned shares acquired in a non-public transaction for at least two years, including persons who may be deemed "affiliates" of the Company, as that term is defined under the Act, would be entitled to sell, within any three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, or the average weekly reported trading volume on all national securities exchanges and through NASDAQ during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale, provided that certain current public information is then available. In August, 1996, all of the shares of Common Stock acquired by the initial shareholders may be eligible for public sale under Rule 144 subject to the foregoing restrictions. If a substantial number of the shares owned by the initial shareholders were sold pursuant to Rule 144 or registered offering, the market price of the Common Stock could be adversely affected. 13 COMPANY POLICIES DIVIDENDS The Company is a new corporation and no assurance can be given that it will generate earnings on which cash dividends can be paid. If cash earnings are generated, management intends to follow policy of retaining all such earnings to finance the development of its business. It is expected that this policy will be maintained as long as necessary to provide funds for the Company's operations. Any dividends that may be paid in the future will be dependent upon the earnings and financial requirements of the Company and all other relevant factors. ANNUAL REPORTS The Company has initially elected a December 31 calendar year-end. Thereafter, the Company will furnish its shareholders with annual reports containing unaudited financial statements within ninety (90) days after the Company's year-end. From time to time, the Company may also furnish its stockholders with such other information as it may deem appropriate, relative to the business operations of the Company. Such information may include news of a change of management, purpose and control of the Company, or any material condition affecting the Company. The Company may change its tax year, accounting methods and procedures according to its business needs.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS On August 1st, 1994, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Industrial Data Systems Inc. (Texas) were acquired by Industrial Data Systems Corporation, a Nevada Corporation duly incorporated in June of 1994 in a tax-free exchange of Common Stock. All 9,500,000 Shares issued in this transaction were issued to William A. Coskey and Hulda L. Coskey who are President and Secretary of both Companies. The management team and ownership of both Companies are essentially one in the same. The Company used audited financial statements dated June 30, 1994 to provide financial information contained in the exhibits at the end of this Offering Memorandum. The 9,500,000 shares discussed in this section represents all of the issued and outstanding shares of the new company. Mr. and Mrs. Coskey were the sole owners of Industrial Data Systems Inc. of Texas prior to the Company's acquisition of Industrial Data Systems Corp. of Nevada hence there is no apparent conflict of interest in the aforementioned transactions. Mr. and Mrs. Coskey believe all material facts of the acquisition to be done in accordance with the state laws of Nevada and Texas. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST It is the opinion of management that no conflict of interest existed in the transaction discussed in the section prior as the beneficial ownership was not effected. Management will endeavor to uphold the highest of standards in all future dealings. The Company's management may become involved in other business entities which may create conflicts of interest with respect to the Company's activities and unforeseen conflicts of interest could develop. In such an event, it would be expected of the original incorporators to resolve said conflicts of 15 interest in the best interest of the Company. Although it is not contemplated, the Company may become involved in joint ventures or acquisitions with or from companies which are controlled by or otherwise associated with the Company's management. If such transactions do occur, they will be handled on terms and conditions which would prevail in an "arms-length" transaction. If such transactions do occur, it is expected that management of the Company will ask for shareholders' approval or ratification of said transactions, or will have such transactions approved by majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors. Failure by the Company to conduct its business in the best interest of the Company could result in liability upon the Company's officers, directors and controlling persons under Nevada State Laws. FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS The officers and directors have a fiduciary responsibility to the shareholders and others to exercise good faith and integrity in matters involving the Company. The shareholders retain rights to inspect the Company's books and records. Should there be a breach of fiduciary responsibility to shareholders, they may seek remedy in a court of law. The officers and directors of the Company are not responsible for errors in judgement or acts of omission which do not constitute fraud or a knowing violation of the law. Additionally, the officers and directors are indemnified for liability suffered by them while acting in the Company's behalf unless they were knowingly violating a law. Therefore, shareholders may have a more limited right of action then otherwise afforded by law. In the opinion of the S.E.C., indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 is contrary to public policy and therefore unenforceable. REMUNERATION Mr. William A. Coskey and Mrs. Hulda C. Coskey both will receive salaries from the Company. Mr. Coskey's salary will be $72,000 and Mrs. Coskey's salary will be $48,000 per year. The Company will maintain a policy of scheduled annual salary reviews with adjustments based on performance. The Company will provide bonuses to employees including management based on profitability. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION The securities described in this Memorandum may be offered only in the State of Nevada. The Company will sell a minimum of 250,000 and a maximum of 500,000 shares of its Common Stock, par value $.001 per Share, to the public on a "best efforts" basis, at the public offering price. There can be no assurance that any of these Shares will be sold. If the Company fails to sell 250,000 Shares within the offering period of one year from the date of this Memorandum, the Offering will be terminated and the subscription payments will be promptly refunded in full to subscribers, without paying interest or deducting expenses. At such time as the escrow agent receives in good funds a minimum of $75,000, the proceeds of this offering will be made available to the Company. While funds are held in escrow, subscribers will not receive interest or have the right of use of such funds and this period may last for up to one calendar year. Shares offered hereby are subject to prior sale and the Company reserves the right to reject all or part of any subscription. RESTRICTIONS ON SUBSCRIBING AND RESALE Shares offered hereby are registered in the state of Nevada to bona fide Nevada residents or entities or to persons whose dealings with regard to this Offering have taken place within the state of Nevada. Such being the case, the Common Stock offered hereby has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended. Restrictions on the resale of such Common Stock may be imposed by state Blue Sky Laws or Federal Securities Laws. 16 SALES AGENT Leisa C. Stilwell is the registered sales agent for the Company for which she will receive a commission of 5% at such time as escrowed funds are released.

This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the balance sheet is free of material misstatement.

In our opinion, the balance sheet referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Industrial Data Systems, Inc. dba IDS Technical Services as of June 30, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in Note 1 to the balance sheet, the Company's investment in real estate limited partnerships amounting to $82,616 was valued based upon a valuation of the underlying real estate prepared by a commercial real estate broker as opposed to a qualified real estate appraiser. We have reviewed the aforementioned valuation and underlying documentation, and in the circumstances, we believe the valuation to be reasonable. However, because of the inherent uncertainty valuation, the commercial real estate broker's valuation of the underlying real estate may differ significantly from the actual fair market value of such real estate, and the differences could be material.

Unless notice is waived by the shareholders, the secretary shall mail, in the manner provided in Section 2.05 of these bylaws, or deliver a written or printed notice of each annual meeting to each shareholder of record, entitled to vote thereat, or may notify by telegram, at least ten and not more than sixty days before the date of such meeting. 2.03 PLACE OF MEETING. The board of directors may designate any place either within or without the State of Nevada as the place of meeting for any annual meeting or for any special meeting called by the board of directors. A waiver of notice signed by all shareholders may designate any place either within or without the State of Nevada, as the place for the holding of such meeting. If no designation is made, or if a special meeting be otherwise called, the place of meeting shall be the registered office of the corporation in the State of Nevada, except as otherwise called, the place of meeting shall be the registered office of the corporation in the State of Nevada, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.06 of these bylaws, entitled "Meeting Without Notice." 2.04 SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the shareholders shall be held at the registered office of the corporation or at such other place as shall be specified or fixed in a notice thereof. Such meetings of the shareholders may be called at any time by the president or secretary, or by a majority of the board of directors then in office, and shall be called by the president with or without board approval on the written request of the holders of record of at least fifty percent (50%) of the number of shares of the corporation then outstanding and entitled to vote, which written request shall state the object of such meeting. 2.05 NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Unless waived by the shareholders, written or printed notice stating the place, day and hour of the meeting and, in case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting, either personally or by mail, by or at the direction of the president or the secretary to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail, addressed to the shareholder at his address as it appears on the records of the corporation, with postage prepaid. Notwithstanding the above, if either notice of two consecutive annual meetings and notices of all meetings and actions taken by shareholder consent in the interim or two payments of dividends or interest on securities sent by first class mail during a twelve month period are returned as undeliverable, the giving of further notices is not required. In that event, any action taken without notice to the shareholder shall be deemed to have been taken with notice to the shareholder. Any shareholder may at any time, by a duly signed statement in writing to that effect, waive any statutory or other notice of any meeting, whether such statement be signed before or after such meeting. 2.06 MEETING WITHOUT NOTICE. If all the shareholders shall meet at any time and place, either within or without the State of Nevada, and consent to the holding of the meeting at such time and place, such meeting shall be valid without call or notice and at such meeting any corporate action may be taken. 2.07 QUORUM AND SHAREHOLDER ACTS. At all shareholders' meetings, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding stock entitled to vote shall be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, but a lesser number may adjourn to some future time not less than seven nor more than twenty-one (21) days later, and the secretary shall thereupon give at least three days notice by mail to each shareholder entitled to vote who is absent from such meeting. Except where a higher percentage is expressly required by the bylaws or by law, an act of the holders of the majority of voting shares that are present at a meeting is an act of the shareholders. 2.08 MODE OF VOTING. At all meetings of the shareholders the voting may be voice vote, but any qualified voter may demand a stock vote whereupon such stock vote shall be taken by ballot, each of which shall state the name of the shareholder voting and the number of shares voted by him and, if such ballot be cast by proxy, it shall also state the name of such proxy; provided, however, that the mode of voting prescribed by statute for any particular case shall be in such case followed. 2.09 PROXIES. At any meeting of the shareholders, any shareholder may be represented and vote by a proxy or proxies appointed by an instrument in writing. Execution may be accomplished by the signing of the writing by the shareholder or other persons authorized to sign on his behalf, or by causing the signature of the shareholder to be made by any reasonable means including, but not limited to, a facsimile signature. In the event any such instrument in writing shall designate two or more persons to act as proxies, a majority of such persons present at the meeting, or, if only one shall be present, then that one shall have and may exercise all of the powers conferred by such written instrument upon all of the persons so designated unless the instrument shall otherwise provide. Additionally, a shareholder may designate a proxy by transmission of a telegram or cablegram that sets forth sufficient information to determine that the transmission was authorized by the shareholder. No such proxy shall be valid after the expiration of six months from the date of its execution, unless coupled with an interest, or unless the person executing it specified therein the length of time for which it is to continue in force, which in no case shall exceed seven years from the date of its execution. Subject to the above, any proxy duly executed is not revoked and continues in full force and effect until an instrument revoking it or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date is filed with the secretary of the corporation. At no time shall any proxy be valid which shall be filed less than ten hours before the commencement of the meeting. 2.10 VOTING LISTS. The officer or agent in charge of the transfer books for shares of the corporation shall make, at least three days before each meeting of shareholders, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting, arranged in alphabetical order with the number of shares held by each, which list for a period of two days prior to such meeting shall be kept on file at the registered office of the corporation and shall be subject to inspection by any shareholder at any time during the whole time of the meeting. The original share ledger or transfer book, or duplicate thereof, kept in this state, shall be prima facie evidence as to who are the shareholders entitled to examine such list or share ledger or transfer book or to vote at any meeting of shareholders. 2.11 CLOSING TRANSFER BOOKS OR FIXING OF RECORD DATE. For the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice or to vote for any meeting of shareholders, the board of directors of the corporation may provide that the stock transfer books be closed for a stated period but not to exceed in any case sixty (60) days before such determination. If the stock transfer books be closed for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of a meeting of shareholders, such books shall be closed for at least fifteen days immediately preceding such meeting. In lieu of closing the stock transfer books, the board of directors may fix, in advance, a date in any case to be not more than sixty (60) days, nor less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring such determination of shareholders, is to be taken. If the stock transfer books are not closed and no record date is fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to notice of a meeting of shareholders, or shareholders entitled to receive payment of a 2 dividend, the date of which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the board of directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determinations of shareholders. 2.12 VOTING OF SHARES. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.14, each outstanding share entitled to vote shall be entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to vote at a meeting of shareholders. 2.13 VOTING OF SHARES BY CERTAIN HOLDERS.

Shares standing in the name of a deceased person may be voted by his administrator or executor, either in person or by proxy. Shares standing in the name of a guardian, conservator or trustee may be voted by such fiduciary either in person or by proxy, but no guardian, conservator, or trustee shall be entitled, as such fiduciary, to vote shares held by him without a transfer of such shares into his name. Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by such receiver, and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by such receiver without the transfer thereof into his name if authority so to do be contained in an appropriate order of the court at which such receiver was appointed. A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such shares until shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter the pledgee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred. Shares of its own stock belonging to this corporation shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any time, but shares of its own stock held by it in a fiduciary capacity may be voted and shall be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any given time. 2.14 ELECTION OF DIRECTORS. Directors shall be elected by a majority vote. At each selection of directors, every shareholder entitled to vote at such election shall have the right to vote, in person or by proxy, the number of shares owned by him for as many persons as there are directors to be elected and for whose election he has a right to vote. A shareholder does not have a right to cumulate his vote for any one director. A shareholder may only cast a vote for each director to be elected which does not exceed the number of shares owned by that shareholder. Directors of this corporation shall not be elected otherwise. 2.15 INFORMAL ACTION BY SHAREHOLDERS.

Borrower will also pay interest on the unpaid principal balance outstanding from time to time at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the sum of the Prime Rate (as hereinafter defined) from time to time in effect plus ***ONE AND NO/1000 *** percent (1.000%), (the "STATED RATE") or (ii) the maximum nonusurious rate of interest from time to time permitted by applicable law, (the "HIGHEST LAWFUL RATE"). If the Stated Rate at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the actual rate of interest to accrue on the unpaid principal amount of this Note will be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the Stated Rate due to reductions in the Prime Rate will not reduce the interest rate payable upon the unpaid principal amount of this note below the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest accrued on this Note equals the amount of interest which would have accrued if the Stated Rate had at all times been in effect. "PRIME RATE" means the rate determined from time to time by Bank as its prime rate. The Prime Rate shall change automatically from time to time without notice to Borrower or any other person. THE PRIME RATE IS A REFERENCE RATE AND MAY NOT BE BANK'S LOWEST RATE. If Texas law determines the Highest Lawful Rate, Bank has elected the "indicated" (weekly) ceiling as defined in the Texas Credit Code or any successor statute. Bank may from time to time, as to current and future balances, elect and implement any other ceiling under such Code and/or revise the Index, formula or provisions of law used to compute the rate on this open-end account by notice to Borrower, if and to the extent permitted by, and in the manner provided in such Code. Each advance must be at least N/A UNITED STATES DOLLARS (U.S.$ N/A ) unless the amount available for borrowing under this Note is less. Accrued and unpaid interest is due and payable MONTHLY, beginning on JULY 11, 1996, and continuing on the 11TH day of each MONTH thereafter and at maturity when all unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest is finally due and payable. Interest will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year comprised of: H 365 (or 366 as the case may be) days H 360 days, unless such calculation would result in a usurious interest rate, in which case such interest will be calculated on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as the case may be. All past-due principal and interest on this Note will, at Bank's option, bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate, or if applicable law does not provide for a maximum nonusurious rate of interest, at a rate per annum equal to 18%. In addition to all principal and accrued interest on this Note, Borrower agrees to pay: (a) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Bank and all owners and holders of this Note in collecting this Note through probate, reorganization, bankruptcy or any other proceeding; and (b) reasonable attorney's fees if and when this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection. Borrower and Bank intend to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Therefore, the total amount of interest (as defined under applicable law) contracted for, charged or collected under this Note will never exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If Bank contracts for, charges or receives any excess interest, it will be deemed a mistake. Bank will automatically reform the contract or charge to conform to applicable law, and if excess interest has been received, Bank will either refund the excess to Borrower or credit the excess on the unpaid principal amount of this Note. All amounts constituting interest will be spread throughout the full term of this Note in determining whether interest exceeds lawful amounts. The unpaid principal balance of this Note at any time will be the total amounts advanced by Bank, less the amount of all payments or prepayments of principal. Absent manifest error, the records of Bank will be conclusive as to amounts owed. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Note and the Loan Documents, Borrower may use all or any part of the credit provided for herein at any time before the maturity of this Note and may borrow, repay and reborrow. There is no limitation on the number of advances made so long as the total unpaid principal amount at any time outstanding does not exceed the Maximum Amount of Note. Borrower may at any time pay the full amount or any part of this Note without the payment of any premium or fee. Any partial prepayment will be in the amount of U.S.$ N/A (U.S.$ N/A ), or an integral multiple thereof. All payments may, at Bank's sole option, be applied to accrued interest, to principal, or to both. "LOAN DOCUMENT" means this Note and any document or instrument evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or given in connection with this Note. "OBLIGATIONS" means all principal, interest and other amounts which are or become owing under this Note or any other Loan Document. "OBLIGOR" means Borrower and any guarantor, surety, co-signer, general partner or other person who may now or hereafter be obligated to pay all or any part of the Obligations. Where appropriate the neuter gender includes the feminine and the masculine and the singular number includes the plural number. Each of the following events or conditions is an "EVENT OF DEFAULT:" (1) any Obligor fails to pay any of the Obligations when due; (2) any warranty, representation or statement now or hereafter contained in or made in connection with any Loan Document was false or misleading in any respect when made; (3) any Obligor violates any covenant, condition or agreement contained in any Loan Document; (4) any Obligor fails or refuses to submit financial information requested by Bank or to permit Bank to inspect its books and records on request; (5) any event of default occurs under any other Loan Document; (6) any individual Obligor dies, or any Obligor that is an entity dissolves; (7) a receiver, conservator or similar official is appointed for any Obligor or any Obligor's assets; (8) any petition is filed by or against any Obligor under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law; (9) any Obligor makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (10) a final judgment is entered against any Obligor and remains unsatisfied for 30 days after entry, or any property of any Obligor is attached, garnished or otherwise made subject to legal process; (11) any material adverse change occurs in the business, assets, affairs or financial condition of any Obligor; and (12) Borrower is in default of any other obligations to or any other agreement with Bank. If any Event of Default occurs, then Bank may do any or all of the following: (i) cease making advances hereunder; (ii) declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, without notice of acceleration or of intention to accelerate, presentment and demand or protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived; (iii) set off, in any order, against the Obligations any debt owing by Bank to any Obligor, including, but not limited to, any deposit account, which right is hereby granted by each Obligor to Bank; and (iv) exercise any and all other rights under the Loan Document, at law, in equity or otherwise. No waiver of any default is a waiver of any other default. Bank's delay in exercising any right or power under any Loan Document is not a waiver of such right or power. Each Obligor severally waives notice, demand, presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, protest, notice of protest, and the filing of suit and diligence in collecting this Note and all other demands and notices, and consents and agrees that its liabilities and obligations will not be released or discharged by any or all of the following, whether with or without notice to it or any other Obligor, and whether before or after the stated maturity hereof: (i) extensions of the time of payment; (ii) renewals; (iii) acceptances of partial payments; (iv) releases or substitutions of any collateral or any Obligor; and (v) failure, if any, to perfect or maintain perfection of any security interest in any collateral. Each Obligor agrees that acceptance of any partial payment will not constitute a waiver and that waiver of any default will not constitute waiver of any prior or subsequent default.

WITNESSETH: 1. PREMISES AND TERM. In consideration of the obligation of Tenant to pay rent as herein provided, and in consideration of the other terms, provisions and covenants hereof, Landlord hereby demises and leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby takes from Landlord certain premises ("Premises") situated within the County of Harris, State of Texas, more particularly described on Exhibits "A" and "A-1" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, together with all rights, privileges, easements, appurtenances and immunities belonging to or in any way pertaining to the Premises. TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the same for a term commencing on February 1, 1991 ("Commencement Date") and ending January 31, 1994 thereafter; provided, however, that in the event the "Commencement Date" is a date other than the first day of a calendar month, said term shall extend for said number of months in addition to the remainder of the calendar month following the "Commencement Date". Tenant accepts the Premises on an "as-is" basis, except that the Premises will be cleaned and the lighting and air conditioning systems will be operational. Tenant acknowledges that no representations as to the condition of the Premises have been made by Landlord, unless such are expressly set forth in this Lease. After such Commencement Date Tenant shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord a letter of acceptance of delivery of the Premises. Landlord will furnish miniblinds in all front offices with windows. 2. RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSIT. A. As part of the consideration for the execution of this Lease, and for the Lease and use of the Premises, Tenant covenants and agrees and promises to pay as rental to Landlord or Landlord's assignees, a total sum of Seventy Three Thousand Five Hundred Seventy Five Dollars and 00/100 DOLLARS ($73,575.00), payable in the amount of One Thousand Eight Hundred Dollars and 00/100 DOLLARS ($1,800.00) per month for months one through twelve, One Thousand Nine Hundred Twelve Dollars and 50/100 DOLLARS ($1,912.50) per month for months thirteen (13) through twenty-four (24) and Two Thousand Four Hundred Eighteen Dollars and 75/100 DOLLARS ($2,418.75) per month for months twenty-five (25) through thirty-six (36). The first such monthly installment shall be due and payable on the date hereof and the appropriate monthly installment shall be due and payable in advance without demand, deduction or set off, on or before the first day of each calendar month succeeding the Commencement Date during the hereby demised term, except that the rental payment for any fractional calendar month at the commencement or end of the Lease period shall be prorated. Failure by Tenant to pay any monthly installment of rent by the fifth (5th) day from the date such payment was due shall be considered an event of default in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 18(a) of this lease Agreement. B. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, as additional rental, all charges for any service, goods, or materials furnished by Landlord at Tenant's request which are not required to be furnished by Landlord under this Lease, (as well as all other sums payable by Tenant hereunder), within ten (10) days after Landlord renders a statement therefor to Tenant. All past due additional rental amounts shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the maximum rate allowed by law. 1 C. In addition, Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord on the date hereof the sum of One Thousand Eight Hundred Dollars and 00/100 DOLLARS ($1,800.00), which sum shall be held by Landlord, without obligation for interest, as security for the performance of Tenant's covenants and obligations under this Lease, it being expressly understood and agreed that such deposit is not an advance rental deposit or a measure of Landlord's damages in case of Tenant's default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy provided herein or provided by law, use such fund to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of rent or other payments due Landlord hereunder, and any other damage, injury, expense or liability caused by such event of default; and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, the amount so applied in order to restore the security deposit to its original amount. Although the security deposit shall be deemed the property of Landlord, any remaining balance of such deposit shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant at such time after termination of this Lease providing that all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease have been fulfilled. 3. USE. The Premises shall be used only for the purposes of receiving, storing, shipping, and selling (other than retail) products, materials and merchandise made and/or distributed by Tenant and for such other lawful purposes as may be incidental thereto. Tenant shall conduct such activities in such a manner as to not constitute a violation of the covenants and deed restrictions of Century Plaza. Outside storage, including, without limitation, trucks and other vehicles, is prohibited without Landlord's prior written consent. Tenant shall obtain, at its own cost and expense, any and all licenses and permits necessary for any such use. Tenant shall comply with all governmental laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to the use of the Premises, and shall promptly comply with all governmental orders and directives for the correction, prevention and abatement of nuisances in, upon, or in connection with the Premises, all at Tenant's sole expense. Tenant shall not permit any objectional or unpleasant odors, smoke, dust, gas, noise or vibrations to emanate from the Premises, nor take any other action which would constitute a nuisance or would disturb or endanger any other Tenants of the building situated on the Premises or unreasonably interfere with their use of their respective Premises. Without Landlord's prior written consent, Tenant shall not receive, store or otherwise handle any product, material or merchandise which is explosive or highly inflammable. Tenant will not permit the Premises to be used for any purpose or in any manner, (including, without limitation, any method of storage) which would render the insurance thereon void or the insurance risk more hazardous or cause the State Board of Insurance or other insurance authority to disallow any sprinkler credits. 4. TAXES. A. Landlord agrees to pay, before they become delinquent, all taxes, assessments, and governmental charges of any kind and nature whatsoever (hereinafter collectively referred to as "taxes") lawfully levied or assessed against the Premises. If the Tenant's proportionate share of Taxes on the Premises, during a real estate tax year, occurring within the term hereof or during any renewal or extension of this term, shall exceed an amount equal to $1991 EXPENSE/sq. ft. of net rental area in the Premises/year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, upon demand, the amount of such excess. In the event any such amount is not paid within ten (10) days after the date of Landlord's invoice to Tenant, the unpaid amount shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the maximum interest rate allowed by law. B. Tenant's "proportionate share", as used in this Lease, shall mean a fraction, the numerator of which is the net rentable square footage of the space contained in the Premises and the denominator of which is the net rentable square footage of the entire space contained in the building of which the Premises is a part, as further defined in Subparagraph 27.0. C. If at any time during the term of this Lease the present method of taxation shall be changed so that in lieu of the whole or any part of any taxes, assessments or governmental charges levied, assessed or imposed on real estate and the improvements thereon, there shall be levied, assessed or imposed on Landlord a capital levy or other tax directly on the rents received therefrom and/or a franchise tax, assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in whole or in part, upon such rents from the Premises, then all such taxes, assessments, levies or charges or the part thereof so measured or based, shall be deemed to be included within the term "taxes" for the purposes hereof. 2 D. The Landlord shall have the right to employ a tax consulting firm to attempt to assure a fair tax burden on the building and grounds of which the Premises is a part within the applicable taxing jurisdictions. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of Tenant's "proportionate share" (as defined in Subparagraph 4B above) of the cost of such service. E. Any payment to be made pursuant to this Paragraph 4 with respect to the real estate tax year in which this Lease commences or terminates shall be prorated. F. Tenant shall pay all ad valorem and similar taxes or assessments levied upon or applicable to all equipment, fixtures, furniture, and other property placed by Tenant in the Premises and all license and other fees or charges imposed on the business conducted by Tenant on the Premises. It is agreed that Tenant will also be responsible for ad valorem taxes on the value of Leasehold improvements to the extent that such leasehold improvements exceed standard building allowances. 5. LANDLORD'S REPAIRS. Landlord shall, at his expense, maintain only the roof, foundation, and the structural soundness of the exterior walls of the building in good repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall repair and pay for any damage caused by the negligence of Tenant, or Tenant's employees, agents or invitees, or caused by Tenant's default hereunder. The term "walls" as used herein shall not include windows, glass or plate glass, doors, special store fronts or office entries. Tenant shall immediately give Landlord written notice of defect or need for repairs, after which Landlord shall have reasonable opportunity to repair same or cure such defect. Landlord's liability with respect to any defects, repairs or maintenance for which Landlord is responsible under any of the provisions of this Lease shall be limited to cost of such repairs or maintenance or the curing of such defect. 6. TENANT'S REPAIRS. A. Tenant shall, at his own cost and expense, keep and maintain all parts of the Premises (except those for which Landlord is expressly responsible under the terms of this Lease) in good condition, promptly making all necessary repairs and replacements, including, but not limited to, windows, glass and plate glass doors, special store fronts or office entries, interior walls and finish work, floors and floor covering, downspouts, gutters, heating and air conditioning systems, truck doors, dock bumpers, paving, plumbing work and fixtures, termite and pest extermination, regular removal of trash and debris, keeping the parking areas, driveways, alleys, and the whole of the Premises in a clean and sanitary condition. Tenant shall not be obligated to repair any damage caused by fire, tornado or other casualty covered by the insurance to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to Subparagraph 13A below, except that Tenant shall be obligated to repair all wind damage to glass, except with respect to tornado or hurricane damage. B. Tenant shall not damage any demising wall or disturb the integrity and support provided by any demising wall and shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly repair any damage or injury to any demising wall caused by Tenant or its employees, agents or invitees. C. Tenant and its employees, customers and licensees shall have the right to use the parking areas, if any, as may be designated by Landlord in writing, subject to such reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to time prescribe and subject to rights of ingress and egress of other Tenant's. Landlord shall not be responsible for enforcing Tenant's parking rights against any third parties. Landlord reserves the right to perform the paving and landscape maintenance, exterior painting, common sewage line plumbing, and care for the grounds around the building of which the Premises is a part, and Tenant shall be liable for its proportionate share (as defined in Subparagraph 4B above) of the cost and expense. If Tenant or any other particular Tenant of the building of which the Premises is a part can be clearly identified as being responsible for obstructions or stoppage of the common sanitary sewage line, then Tenant, if Tenant is responsible, or such other responsible Tenant, shall pay the entire cost thereof, upon demand, as additional rent. Tenant shall pay, when due, its share, determined as aforesaid, of such costs and expenses along with the other Tenants of the building to Landlord, upon demand, as additional rent, for the amount of 3 its share as aforesaid of such costs and expenses in the event Landlord elects to perform or cause to be performed such work. In the event any such amount is not paid within ten (10) days after the date of Landlord's invoice to Tenant, the unpaid amount shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the maximum interest rate allowed by law. D. Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense maintain and service all hot water, heating and air conditioning systems and equipment within the Premises. This maintenance should include regular filter changes and lubrication of equipment, as well as other prudent preventive maintenance procedures. Landlord's representatives will inspect and service the heating and air conditioning equipment prior to the Commencement Date and will certify the equipment to be operational on the Commencement Date. 7. COMMON AREA MAINTENANCE. A. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord as additional rent $.04 PER SQUARE FOOT of net rentable area in the Premises per month as its estimated share of the common area services which are provided by Landlord for mutual benefit of all Tenants. These services may include but are limited to general landscaping, mowing of grass, care of shrubs (including replacement of dead or diseased plants); operation and maintenance of lawn sprinkler system; operation and maintenance of exterior security lighting; water service and sewer charges; repainting of exterior surfaces of truck doors, handrails, downspouts, and other parts of the building which require periodic preventative maintenance; and the prorata share of Century Plaza common area maintenance and security service charges. B. The actual cost of these services shall be prorated among Tenants on a basis of net rentable square footage occupied in the same manner as provided in Subparagraph 4B above. Landlord shall send Tenant an annual statement of actual common area service costs along with either an invoice or a rebate for the amount that Tenant's actual proportionate share exceeded, or was less than, Tenant's $.04/SQ. FT. of net rentable area in the Premises per month common area service payment for the year then ended. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt of such invoice from Landlord. Subject to Landlord's reasonable discretion, this monthly common area service charge may be renegotiated periodically based upon increases in Landlord's annual cost of providing these services. 8. ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises (including, but not limited to, roof and wall penetrations) without the prior written consent of Landlord. If Landlord consents to Tenant's contractors doing the work, Landlord may require, at Landlord's sole option, that Tenant provide, at Tenant's expense, a lien and completion bond in an amount equal to one and one half (1-1/2) times any and all estimated costs of improvements, additions or alterations in the Premises to insure Landlord against any liability or mechanic's and materialmen's liens which may arise in accordance with Paragraph 23 of this Lease Agreement and to insure completion of the work. Tenant may, without the consent of Landlord, but at its own cost and expense and in a good workmanlike manner, erect such shelves, bins, machinery and trade fixtures as it may deem advisable, without altering the basic character of the building or improvements and without overloading or damaging the building or improvements, and in each case complying with all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements. All alterations, additions, improvements and partitions erected by Tenant shall be and remain the property of Tenant during the term of this Lease and Tenant shall, unless Landlord otherwise elects as hereinafter provided, remove all alterations, additions, improvements, and partitions erected by Tenant and restore the Premises to their original condition by the date of termination of this Lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises; provided, however, that if Landlord so elects prior to termination of this Lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises, such alterations, additions, improvements, and partitions shall become the property of Landlord as of the date of termination of this Lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises and shall be delivered up to the Landlord with the Premises. All shelves, bins, machinery and trade fixtures installed by Tenant may be removed by Tenant prior to the termination of this Lease if Tenant so elects, and shall be removed by the date of termination of this Lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises if required by Landlord. Upon any such removal, Tenant shall restore the Premises to their original condition. All such 4 removals and restoration shall be accomplished in a good workmanlike manner so as not to damage the primary structure or structural qualities of the building and other improvements situated on the Premises. 9. SIGNS. Tenant shall have the right to install signs upon the Premises only when first approved in writing by Landlord and subject to any applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations, Landlord's standard sign criteria and other requirements. At Landlord's direction, Tenant shall be responsible for the removal of all such signs by the termination of this Lease. Such installations and removals shall be made in such a manner as to avoid injury or defacement, including, without limitation, discoloration caused by such installation and/or removal. 10. INSPECTION. Landlord and Landlord's agents and representatives shall have the right to enter and inspect the Premises at any reasonable time during business hours, for the purpose of ascertaining the condition of the Premises or in order to make such repairs as may be required or permitted to be made by Landlord under the terms of this Lease. During the period that is six (6) months prior to the end of the term hereof, Landlord and Landlord's agents and representatives shall have the right to enter the Premises at any reasonable time during business hours for the purpose of showing the Premises and shall have the right to erect on the Premises a suitable sign indicating the Premises are available. Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to vacating the Premises and shall arrange to meet with Landlord for a joint inspection of the Premises prior to vacating. In the event of Tenant's failure to give such notice or arrange such joint inspection, Landlord's inspection at or after Tenant's vacating the Premises shall be conclusively deemed corrected for purposes of determining Tenant's responsibility for repairs and restoration. 11. UTILITIES. Landlord agrees to provide, at its cost, water, electricity and telephone service connections into the Premises; but Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, sewer, sprinkler charges and other utilities and services used on or from the Premises, together with any taxes, penalties, surcharges or the like pertaining thereto and any maintenance charges for utilities and shall furnish all electric light bulbs and tubes. If any such services are not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant shall pay it's proportionate share as determined by Landlord of all charges jointly metered with other premises. Landlord shall in no event be liable for any interruption or failure of utility services on the Premises. 12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not have the right to assign this Lease or to sublet the whole or any part of the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. Notwithstanding any permitted assignment or subletting, Tenant shall at all times remain directly, primarily and fully responsible and liable for the payment of the rent herein specified and for compliance with all of its other obligations under the terms, provisions and covenants of this Lease. Upon the occurrence of an "event of default" as hereinafter defined, if the Premises or any part thereof are then assigned or sublet, Landlord, in addition to any other remedies herein provided, or provided by law, may, at its option, collect directly from such assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due to Tenant under such assignment or sublease and apply such rent against any sums due to Landlord from Tenant hereunder, and no such collection shall be construed to constitute a novation or a release of Tenant from the further performance of Tenant's obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the terms above, Landlord reserves the right to either: 1) enter into a new Lease Agreement with the proposed assignee or subtenant and terminate the Lease coincident with occupancy by the new Tenant and commencement of the new Lease; or, 2) Landlord and Tenant may mutually agree to terminate this Lease. 13. INSURANCE; FIRE AND CASUALTY DAMAGE. A. Landlord agrees to maintain standard fire and extended coverage insurance covering the building, of which the Premises are a part, in any amount not less than ninety (90) percent (or such greater percentage as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of any co-insurance clauses of the policy) of the 5 "replacement cost" thereof, as such term is defined in the Replacement Cost Endorsement to be attached thereto insuring against the perils of Fire, Lightning and Extended Coverage, such coverages and endorsements to be defined, provided and limited in the standard bureau forms prescribed by the insurance regulatory authority for the State of Texas for use by insurance companies admitted in the State of Texas for the writing of such insurance on risks located with the State of Texas. Subject to the provisions of Subparagraphs 13C, 13D, and 13E below, such insurance shall be for the sole benefit of Landlord and under its sole control. In addition Landlord agrees to maintain general liability coverage insurance in an amount deemed prudent and necessary by landlord or required by mortgagee presently (or in the future) holding a mortgage and/or deed(s) of trust constituting a lien against the building of which the Premises are a part. If the annual premiums charged Landlord for insurance exceed the standard premium rates because the nature of the Tenant's operation results in extra hazardous exposure, and if Landlord permits such operations, then Tenant, upon receipt of appropriate premium notices, shall reimburse landlord for such increase in such premiums as additional rent hereunder. Tenant shall maintain, at its own expense, fire and extended coverage insurance on all of its personal property, including removable trade fixtures located in the Premises and on all additions and improvements made by Tenant and not required to be insured by Landlord. In addition, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord annually, as additional rent and upon receipt of notice from Landlord, for Tenant's proportionate share of all amounts paid by landlord for insurance premiums which exceed an amount equal to 1991 EXPENSE/SQ. FT. of net rentable area in the Premises/year. In the event the Premises constitute a portion of a multiple occupancy building, Tenant shall be responsible for reimbursing Landlord for Tenant's full proportionate share of such excess, as such share is defined in Subparagraph 4B above. Said payments shall be made to Landlord within ten (10) days after presentation to Tenant of Landlord's statement setting forth the amount due. Any payment to be made pursuant to this Subparagraph A with respect to the year in which this Lease commences or terminates shall bear the same ratio to the payment which would be required to be made for the full year as the part of such year covered by the term of this Lease bears to a full year. In the event any such additional rental amount is not paid within ten (10) days after the date of Landlord's invoice to Tenant, the unpaid amount shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the maximum interest rate allowed by law. B. If the Premises should be damaged or destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice thereof to Landlord. C. If the Premises should be totally destroyed by fire, tornado, or other casualty, or if they should be so damaged thereby that rebuilding or repairs cannot, in Landlord's estimation, be completed within two hundred (200) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, this Lease shall terminate and the rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage. D. If the Premises should be damaged by any peril covered by the insurance to be provided by Landlord under Subparagraph 13A above, but only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can, in Landlord's estimation, be completed within two hundred (200) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, this lease shall not terminate, and Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, thereupon proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair such building to substantially the condition in which it existed prior to such damage, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by Tenant. if the Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, the rent payable hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable shall be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances. In the event that Landlord should fail to complete such repairs and rebuilding within two hundred (200) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, Tenant may, at its option, terminate this lease by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord as Tenant's exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate. E. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the holder of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed of trust covering the building of which the Premises are a part requires that 6 the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination of Tenant within fifteen (15) days after such requirement is made by any such holder, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate. F. Landlord and Tenant each hereby release the other from any loss or damage to the property caused by fire or any other perils insured through or under them by way of subrogation, or otherwise for any loss or damage to property caused by fire or any other perils insured in policies of insurance covering such property, even if such loss or damage shall have been caused by the fault of negligence of the other party or anyone for whom such party may be responsible; provided, however, that this release shall be applicable and in force and effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such times in which the releasers policies contain a clause or endorsement stating that any such release shall not adversely affect or impair said policies or prejudice the right of the releasor to recover thereunder and then only to the extent of the insurance proceeds payable under such policies. Both Landlord and Tenant agree that they will request their insurance carriers to include such a clause or endorsement in their policies. If extra cost shall be charged therefor, each party shall advise the other thereof and of the amount of the extra cost, and the other party, at its election, may pay the same, but shall not be obligated to do so. G. If the Premises should be damaged or destroyed by a casualty other than a peril covered by the insurance to be provided under Subparagraph 13A above, and the casualty or loss was the result of an action or failure to act by Tenant or Tenant's employees, agents, guests, customers, representatives or invitees, Tenant shall at its sole cost and expense thereupon proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair the Premises to substantially the condition in which they existed prior to such damage or destruction, subject to Landlord's approval of the plans and specifications for such rebuilding and repairing. 14. LIABILITY. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or Tenant's employees, agents, patrons or visitors, or to any other person whomsoever, for any injury to person or damage to property on or about the Premises, resulting from and/or caused in part or whole by the negligence or misconduct of Tenant, its agents, servants, employees, or of any other person entering upon the Premises, or caused by the buildings and improvements located on the Premises becoming out of repair, or caused by leakage of gas, oil, water or steam or by electricity emanating from the Premises, or due to any cause whatsoever, and Tenant hereby covenants and agrees that it will at all times indemnify and hold safe and harmless the property, the Landlord (including, without limitation, the trustee and beneficiaries if Landlord is a trust), Landlord's agents and employees from any loss, liability, claims, suits, costs, expenses, including, without limitation, attorney's fees and damages, both real and alleged, arising out of any such damage or injury; except injury to persons or damage to property the sole cause of which is negligence of Landlord or the failure of Landlord to repair any part of the Premises which Landlord is obligated to repair and maintain hereunder within a reasonable time after the receipt of written notice from Tenant of needed repairs. Tenant shall procure and maintain throughout the term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance, at its sole cost and expense, insuring both the Landlord and Tenant against all claims, demands or actions arising out of or in connection with (i) the Premises; (ii) the condition of the Premises; (iii) Tenant's operations in maintenance and use of the Premises; and (iv) Tenant's liability assumed under this Lease, the limits of such policy or policies to be the amount of not less than One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for bodily injury or death of one person, Three Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($300,000.00) for any one occurrence, and not less than Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) for property damage or destruction, including loss of use thereof. All such policies shall be procured by Tenant from responsible insurance companies satisfactory to Landlord. Certified copies of such policies, together with receipt evidencing payment of premiums therefor, shall be delivered to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date of this Lease. Not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration date of any such policies, certified copies of the renewals thereof (bearing notations evidencing the payment of renewal premiums) shall be delivered to Landlord. Such policies shall further provide that not less than thirty (30) days written notice shall be given to Landlord before such policy may be canceled or changed to reduce insurance provided thereby. 15. CONDEMNATION. 7 A. If the whole or any substantial part of the Premises should be taken for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof and the taking would prevent or materially interfere with the use of the Premises for the purpose for which they are being used, this Lease shall terminate and the rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective when the physical taking of said premises shall occur. B. If part of the Premises shall be taken for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, and the taking does not prevent or materially interfere with the use of the Premises, and this Lease is not terminated as provided in the subparagraph above, this Lease shall not terminate but the rent payable hereunder during the unexpired portion of this Lease shall be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances. C. In the event of any such taking or private purchase in lieu thereof, Landlord shall be entitled to receive and retain all compensation awarded in any condemnation proceedings. 16. HOLDING OVER. Tenant will, at the termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise, yield up immediate possession to Landlord. If Landlord agrees in writing that Tenant may hold over after the expiration or termination of this Lease, unless the parties hereto otherwise agree in writing on the terms of such holding over, the hold over Tenancy shall be subject to termination by Landlord at any time upon not less than five (5) days advance written notice, or by Tenant at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days advanced written notice, and all of the other terms and provisions of this Lease shall be applicable during that period, except that Tenant shall pay Landlord from time to time upon demand, as rental for the period of any hold over, an amount equal to two (2) times the rent, including any additional rents defined in the Lease, in effect on the termination date, computed on a daily basis for each day of the hold over period. No holding over by the Tenant, whether with or without consent of Landlord, shall operate to extend this Lease except as otherwise expressly provided. The preceding provisions of this paragraph 16 shall not be construed as Landlord's consent for Tenant to hold over. 17. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord covenants that it now has, or will acquire before Tenant takes possession of the Premises, good title to the Premises, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, excepting only the lien for current taxes not yet due, such mortgage or mortgages as are permitted by the terms of this Lease, zoning ordinances and other building and fire ordinances and governmental regulations relating to the use of such property, and easements, restrictions and other conditions of record. In the event this Lease is a sublease, then Tenant agrees to take the Premises subject to the provisions of the prior Leases. Landlord represents and warrants that it has full right and authority to enter into this Lease and that Tenant, upon paying the rental herein set forth and performing its other covenants and agreements herein set forth, shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the term hereof without hindrance or molestation from Landlord, subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease. 18.

REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any of such events of default described in Paragraph 18 hereof, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice or demand whatsoever. (a) Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying such Premises or any part thereof, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages therefor; and Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, on demand, the amount of all loss and damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination, whether through inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise. TENANT HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO THREE DAYS NOTICE OF LANDLORD'S INTENT TO FILE A FORCIBLE DETAINER OR FORCIBLE ENTRY AND DETAINER ACTION AS PROVIDED IN V.T.C.A., PROPERTY CODE, SECTION 24.005. (b) Enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying such Premises or any part thereof, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages therefor, and relet the Premises and receive the rent therefor, and Tenant agrees to pay the Landlord, or demand, any deficiency that may arise by reason of such reletting. In the event Landlord is successful in reletting the Premises at a rental in excess of that agreed to the paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant each mutually agree that Tenant shall not be entitled, under any circumstances, to such excess rental, and Tenant does hereby specifically waive any claim to such excess rental. (c) Terminate this Lease and treat the event of default as an entire breach of the Lease and Tenant immediately shall become liable to Landlord for damages for the entire breach in the amount equal to the amount by which the total rent now due and payable as adjusted by the amount of additional rent which would be payable by Tenant during the unexpired balance of the term of this Lease and all other p;ayments due for the balance of the term is in excess of the fair market rent value of the Premises for the balance of the term as of the time of default, both discounted at the rate of six (6) percent per annum to the then present value. Such amount shall be due and payable upon Lessor's notice to Lessee of termination of the Lease and shall bear interest until paid at the maximum annual rate permitted by law. (d) Enter upon the Premises, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages therefor, and do whatever Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease; and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord, on demand, for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenant's obligations under this Lease, and Tenant further agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to the Tenant from such action, whether caused by the negligence of Landlord or otherwise. (e) Alter locks and other security devices at the Premises, without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages therefor, and such alteration of locks and security devices shall not be deemed or unauthorized or constitute a conversion. (f) Receive payment from Tenant, in addition to any sum provided to be paid above, for any and all of the following expenses for which Tenant shall be considered liable: 1. Broker's fees incurred by Landlord in connection with reletting the whole or any part of the Premises; 9 2. The cost of removing and storing Tenant's or other occupant's property; 3. The cost of repairing, altering, remodeling or otherwise putting Premises into condition acceptable to a new Tenant or Tenants, plus a reasonable charge to cover overhead; and 4. All reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in enforcing Landlord's remedies. In the event Tenant fails to pay any installment of rent hereunder as and when such installment is due, to help defray the additional cost to Landlord for processing such late payments Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand a late charge in the amount equal to five (5) percent of such installment; and the failure to pay such amount within ten (10) days after demand therefor shall be an event of default hereunder. The provision for such late charge shall be in addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord's remedies in any manner. Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any of the other remedies herein provided or another remedies provided by law, nor shall pursuit of any remedy herein provided constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due to Landlord hereunder or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained. No act or thing done by the Landlord or its agents during the term hereby granted shall be deemed a termination of this Lease or any acceptance of the surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to terminate this Lease or accept a surrender of said Premises shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by Landlord. No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained shall be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any other violation or breach of any of the other terms, provisions and covenants herein contained. Landlord's acceptance of the payment of rental or other payments hereunder after the occurrence of an event of default shall not be construed as a waiver of such default, unless Landlord so notifies Tenant in writing. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default or of Landlord's right to enforce any such remedies with respect to such default of any subsequent default. If, on account of any breach or default by Tenant in Tenant's obligations under the terms and conditions of this Lease, it shall become necessary or appropriate of Landlord to employ or consult with an attorney concerning any of Landlord's rights or remedies hereunder or to enforce or defend any of the Landlord's rights or remedies hereunder, Tenant agrees to pay any reasonable attorney's fees so incurred. 20. LANDLORD'S LIEN. IN ADDITION TO ANY STATUTORY LIEN FOR RENT IN LANDLORD'S FAVOR, LANDLORD SHALL HAVE, AND TENANT HEREBY GRANTS TO LANDLORD, A CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST FOR ALL RENTALS AND OTHER SUMS OF MONEY BECOMING DUE HEREUNDER FROM TENANT, UPON ALL GOODS, WARES, EQUIPMENT, FIXTURES, FURNITURE, INVENTORY, ACCOUNTS, CONTRACT RIGHTS, CHATTEL PAPER ANOTHER PERSONAL PROPERTY OF TENANT SITUATED ON THE PREMISES, AND SUCH PROPERTY SHALL NOT BE REMOVED THEREFROM WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF LANDLORD UNTIL ALL ARREARAGES IN RENT AS WELL AS ANY AND ALL OTHER SUMS OF MONEY THEN DUE TO LANDLORD HEREUNDER SHALL FIRST HAVE BEEN PAID AND DISCHARGED.

In addition, Landlord's mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure or remedy such default during the period that is permitted to Landlord hereunder, and Tenant will accept such curative or remedial action taken by Landlord's mortgagee with the same effect as if such action had been taken by the Landlord.

Tenant's exclusive remedy shall by an action for damages against Landlord, and Tenant hereby waives the benefit of any laws granting it a lien upon the property of Landlord and/or upon rent due Landlord. In the event Tenant pays any mortgage debt in full, in accordance with this paragraph, it shall, at its election, be entitled to the mortgage security by assignment or subrogation. 23. MECHANIC'S LIENS. Tenant shall have no authority, express or implied, to create or place any lien or encumbrance of any kind or nature whatsoever upon, or in any manner to bind, the interest of Landlord in the Premises or to charge the rentals payable hereunder for any claim in favor of any person dealing with Tenant, including those who may furnish materials or perform labor for any construction or repairs, and each such claim shall affect and each such lien shall attach to, if at all, only the leasehold interest granted to Tenant by this instrument. Tenant covenants and agrees that it will pay or cause to be paid all sums legally due and payable by it on account of any labor performed or materials furnished in connection with any work performed on the Premises on which any lien is or can be validly and legally asserted against its leasehold interest in the premises or the improvements thereon, and that it will save and hold Landlord harmless from any and all loss, cost or expense based on or arising out of asserted claims or liens against the leasehold estate or against the right, title and interest of the Landlord in the Premises or under the terms of this Lease. 24. ASSIGNMENT BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall have the right to assign or transfer, in whole or in part, every feature of its rights and obligations hereunder and in the building or real property of which the Premises is a part. Such assignments or transfers may be made to a corporation, trust, trust company, individual or group of individuals, and howsoever made shall be in all things respected and recognized by Tenant. 25. DISCLAIMER.
