         exchange for an annual fee of $25,000.  At the time that Sodbury             
         was incorporated, Ronde Klip and Pietermaai each received one-               
         half or 3,000 shares of the 6,000 shares of Sodbury common stock

         (RCA) under which ABN-Willemstad agreed to loan Sodbury up to
