                        FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

         This Forbearance Agreement and Release ("Agreement") is entered into by
Car Rental Direct, Inc., fkna Car Rental Direct.com, Inc. a Nevada corporation
("Borrower"), MAII Holdings, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Guarantor"), Christie
Tyler, Keenan Cheung, Car Rental Direct Holdings, Inc., ("CRD Holdings"), Car
Rental Direct of Central Arizona, Inc., an Arizona corporation ("CRD Arizona"),
and Ford Motor Credit Company, a Delaware corporation ("Ford Credit" or
"Lender"), effective as of January 21, 2003 (each is a "Party" and collectively
the "Parties").

                                    RECITALS

         A. Plaintiff Ford Credit is, and at all material times has been, a
Delaware corporation, having its principal place of business in the State of
Michigan.

         B. Defendant, Borrower is a Nevada corporation that is qualified to do
business in the State of California with its principal place of business in Van
Nuys, County of Los Angeles, California.

         C. Defendant, Guarantor is a Texas corporation that is qualified to do
business in the State of California with its principal place of business in Van
Nuys, County of Los Angeles, California.

         D. All parties to this Agreement stipulate and agree that there is
complete diversity between Ford Credit and all other signers to this Agreement
as defined under 28 U.SC. Section 1332 and applicable case law. The parties
agree and consent to the jurisdiction of the District Court for the Central
District of California for all purposes and that any

<PAGE>


disputes arising under this Agreement on the Stipulation shall be heard and
resolved in that forum.

         E. Borrower owns and operates a rental car business. By a Master Loan
and Security Agreement dated February 21, 2002, as amended and supplemented
("Loan Agreement") between Borrower and Lender, Lender agreed to provide
financing to Borrower from time to time to finance the acquisition of motor
vehicles for use in its rental car business. Borrower requested loans and
identified motor vehicles for acquisition through Loan Supplements.

         F. In consideration of the loans under the Loan Agreement and to secure
Borrower's obligations to Lender, Borrower granted Lender a security interest in
certain of Borrower's inventory of motor vehicles, proceeds of the motor
vehicles and rental income from any lease of the motor vehicles as described in
the Loan Agreement (the "Collateral").

         G. Ford Credit perfected its security interest in the Collateral by
filing UCC-1 financing statements with the Offices of the Secretary of State of
California and the Secretary of State of Nevada and by notating the Certificates
of Title to vehicle Collateral as lien holder.

         H. To induce Ford Credit to enter into the Loan Agreement, Guarantor
executed and delivered to Lender a Continuing Guaranty dated December 14, 2001,
of all obligations of Borrower owing to Lender.

         I. The Loan Agreement and the other documents identified on Exhibit A
to this Agreement and the documents executed in connection with those loan
documents are generally referred to as the "Loan Documents."

         J. By an Amendment to Master Loan and Security Agreement dated April
19, 2002, between Borrower and Lender, Lender agreed, among other things, to
increase the maximum loan amount under the Loan Agreement.

         K. By an Asset Purchase Agreement dated May 1, 2002, by and among Gisa
Holdings, Inc., an Arizona Corporation, dba Discount Rent A Car ("Gisa"), JMG
Holdings, LLC, Jack Gunion, Martha Gunion and CRD Arizona, Gisa agreed to sell
certain assets to CRD Arizona (the "Gisa Transaction"). Included within these
assets to be sold were assets of Gisa subject to a security interest in favor of
Ford Credit.

         L. By an Operating Agreement dated May 1, 2002, by and between Gisa and
CRD Arizona, CRD Arizona assumed the operation and management of Gisa, took
possession and used the Gisa assets which were subject to a security interest in
favor of Ford Credit, and agreed to pay Gisa's operating expenses pending the
close of the Gisa Transaction. Included within the Gisa operating expenses were
payment of monthly obligations of Gisa owing to Ford Credit.

         M. In late August 2002, Borrower announced that the Asset Purchase
Agreement with Gisa had been terminated.

         N. On September 4, 2002, Lender notified Borrower that the maximum loan
under Loan Agreement was being reduced.

         O. In October 2002, Borrower demanded that Lender increase the maximum
loan amount under the Loan Agreement. Ford Credit and Borrower engaged in
meetings, an exchange of letters and negotiations concerning the Loan Agreement.
During this period, Borrower and Christie Tyler asserted claims for damages on
behalf of Borrower, and himself individually, against Ford Credit.

         P. In November 2002, Ford Credit notified the Borrower that it would
terminate the Loan Agreement effective March 2, 2003, and, it notified the
Borrower to obtain an alternative finance source.

         Q. Borrower defaulted on its obligations owing to Lender under the Loan
Documents by failing to pay the monthly amortization and interest payments that
came due on October 15, 2002. As of January 15, 2003, Borrower owes Lender for
monthly amortization payments due October 15, November 15, and December 15,
2002, in the combined amount of $1,302,901.79 (the "Past Due Payments).

         R. As of January 15, 2003, Borrower is obligated to Lender under the
Loan Agreement as follows:

<Table>
<S>                                         <C>
         Unamortized Balance                $11,279,981.06
         Past Due Payments                  $ 1,302,901.79
         January 15, 2003 Payment           $   441,500.07
         Total                              $13,024,382.92
</Table>

         S. As a result of Borrower's defaults under the Loan Documents, on
November 19, 2002, Lender filed its complaint against Borrower and Guarantor in
the United States District Court for the Central District of California (the
"Court"), Case Number CV 02-8880 GHK (RCx), entitled Ford Motor Credit Company
v. Car Rental Direct, Inc., fkna Car Rental Direct.com, Inc., a Nevada
corporation, MAII Holdings, Inc. a Texas corporation (the "Action").

         T. On December 20, 2002, Lender filed and served the Complaint and an
Ex Parte Application for Order for Writ of Possession and Injunctive Relief (the
"Motion"). On December 26, 2002, Borrower filed an opposition to the Motion. On
December 27,


                                      -4-
<PAGE>


2002, the Court issued a temporary restraining order concerning any transfer of
the Collateral and set hearing for the Motion on January 10, 2003. After oral
argument on January 10, 2003, the Court granted the Motion and issued its
"Memorandum of Decision and Order Granting Application for Writ of Possession
(Claim and Delivery)" (the "Order For Writ").

         U. Borrower and Guarantor have requested that Lender forbear from
exercising its rights and remedies as a result of the defaults by Borrower under
the Loan Documents and as authorized by the Court's Order for Writ. Borrower has
proposed that Lender modify the Loan Agreement under the terms and conditions
contained in this Agreement. Because of the existence of the defaults under the
Loan Documents, Lender has no obligation to make any further advances under the
Loan Documents and has the current right to exercise all its rights and remedies
under the Loan Documents and under the Order For Writ of Possession. Although
Lender is under no obligation to do so, Lender is willing to forbear from
exercising its defaults rights against Borrower and Guarantor under the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

         NOW THEREFORE for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

                                    AGREEMENT

         1. INCORPORATION OF RECITALS. Each of the above recitals is
incorporated herein and deemed to be the agreement of the Parties and is relied
upon by each Party to this Agreement in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement.


                                      -5-

         2. TERMS OF FORBEARANCE. Lender will forbear from exercising its rights
and remedies against Borrower and Guarantors due to the events of default
described above or defaults disclosed by Borrower to Lender prior to the date of
this Agreement, and in the Court's Order for Writ on the following terms and
conditions:

                  (a) PAST DUE PAYMENTS: Borrower shall pay $1,200,000 on
                      account of the Past Due Payments as follows:

                      (i)   $100,000 no later than 10:00 a.m. Pacific time on
                            Friday, January 24, 2003; and

                      (ii)  Monthly, commencing February 10, 2003, and
                            continuing thereafter, $50,000 on the 10th day and
                            $50,000 on the 20th day of each month (or the first
                            business day thereafter), until the total sum of
                            $1,200,000 has been paid.

                       Provided that no further defaults occur under this
                  Agreement or the Loan Documents, upon payment of the entire
                  $1,200,000, Borrower's and Guarantor's obligations to Lender
                  on account of the Past Due Payments shall be discharged on
                  account of such Past Due Payments. Upon default under this
                  Agreement or further default under the Loan Documents, the
                  entire amount of Past Due Payments as identified in Recital
                  paragraph Q, less any payments received, together with
                  interest and other charges from such payment due dates shall
                  be due and owing.

                  (b) JANUARY 15, 2003 PAYMENT. Borrower shall pay to Lender the
                      January 15, 2003 payment of $441,500.07 no later than

<PAGE>


                  (c) UNAMORTIZED PAYMENT AMOUNTS. Monthly, commencing on
                      February 1, 2003, Lender shall bill Borrower in its normal
                      course of business for the amount due in arrears for the
                      previous month in the same manner as it has in the past.
                      Borrower shall pay each monthly billing on the 10th day
                      and 20th day of each month, with 50% of the total bill due
                      on the 10th day of the month and 50% due on the 20th day
                      of the month (or the first business day thereafter),
                      EXCEPT THAT the payments due February 10 and 20, 2003,
                      shall be paid on or before December 31, 2003, and the
                      payments due March 10, 2003 and March 20, 2003, may be
                      partially deferred in the amount of $150,000 each, and
                      this $300,000 total deferred amount will be repaid by
                      increasing the payments due August 10 and 20, September 10
                      and 20, and October 10 and 20, 2003 by $50,000 each. The
                      monthly billing may include payoffs on individual units
                      which payoffs will include the unamortized balance plus
                      three monthly amortizations for the Past Due Payment
                      attributable to that unit. Lender will not release the
                      certificate of title to a vehicle unless it receives the
                      complete payoff of all amounts including Past Due Payments
                      attributable to that vehicle. Past Due Payments received
                      for payoffs will be credited to satisfaction of the
                      obligation under subparagraph 2(a). The monthly billing
                      will also include and require payoffs on individual units
                      which are damaged or out of service for 30 days or more.

                  (d) NO ADDITIONAL ADVANCES OR EXTENSIONS. Lender may, in its
                      sole discretion, but is not obligated, to make any new or
                      additional advances, or grant any extension under the Loan
                      Documents for the Borrower's acquisition of inventory or
                      for any other purpose.

                  (e) GUARANTOR. Guarantor shall reaffirm its Guaranty of all
                      obligations of Borrower owing to Lender as set forth in
                      paragraph 7 below.

                  (f) VEHICLE LOCATION. Borrower shall immediately upon
                      execution of this Agreement and every ninety (90) days
                      thereafter deliver to Lender a list identifying the
                      location of each Vehicle subject to Lender's security
                      interest by VIN number. As of and after the date of
                      December 16, 2002, Borrower may relocate vehicles between
                      its locations within a state, but Borrower shall not
                      relocate any vehicles to states other than the state for
                      garaging indicated in the Loan Documents.

                  (g) STIPULATED JUDGMENT. Lender and Borrower will stipulate to
                      the Court's entry of Judgment against Borrower and
                      Guarantor substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached
                      hereto (the "Stipulation").

                  (h) CONTINUED PERFORMANCE UNDER LOAN DOCUMENTS. Borrower shall
                      strictly observe and perform each and every of the terms,
                      conditions and promises contained in the Loan Documents,
                      except as expressly excused or modified in this Agreement.
                      In particular,

<PAGE>


                      Borrower will permit Lender to conduct audits as provided
                      under the Loan Documents.

                  (i) PAYMENT. All payments must be received by Lender on the
                      due date and in certified funds or by wire transfer. It is
                      the responsibility of Borrower to strictly perform these
                      requirements.

                  (j) TERM. The balance of all money owing shall be paid on
                      December 31, 2003. In the event that the Unamortized

                      $1,200,000 owed under section 2(a) above shall be due and
                      payable at such time.

         3. FORBEARANCE. Lender will forbear from pursuing its rights and
remedies under the Loan Documents, this Agreement and in the Action arising out
of the events of default contained in the Recitals above or defaults disclosed
by Borrower to Lender prior to the date of this Agreement, so long as the
Borrower timely performs as provided in paragraph 2 above. If Borrower fails to
perform timely or satisfy any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or
the Loan Documents, Lender may immediately exercise any and all rights and
remedies as provided by the Loan Documents, this Agreement, the Order For Writ,
the Stipulation and applicable law. If Borrower fails to perform or satisfy any
of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, or the Loan Documents, then Lender
is no longer obligated to forbear and may proceed to exercise its rights under
this Agreement, the Stipulation, the Order for Writ and the Loan Documents.


                                      -9-
<PAGE>


         4. NON WAIVER. Lender by this Agreement is not waiving any existing
default and such defaults shall remain until full compliance with this Agreement
and payment in full of all amounts owed Lender.

         5. PROVISIONAL REMEDIES. Borrower and Guarantor expressly acknowledge
that due to Borrower's default under the Loan Documents and the Court's issuance
of the Order For Writ, Lender has the right to enforce a writ of possession and
a preliminary injunction, which right Lender is forbearing from exercising under
the terms of this Agreement. By this Agreement, Borrower and Guarantor each
expressly waive any right to oppose Lender's recovery or realization on property
of Borrower subject to Lender's security interest after December 31, 2003 or any
additional default of Borrower under the Loan Documents or this Agreement, and
Borrower and Guarantor each agree to cooperate in Lender's exercise of rights to
recover and realize on such property if Borrower fails to perform under this
Agreement or the Loan Documents.

         6. EFFECT OF PRIOR DOCUMENTS. The Loan Documents remain in full force
and effect, except as specifically modified by this Agreement, and this
Agreement shall not be construed to:

                 a) Impair the validity, perfection or priority or any lien or
                    security interest securing Borrower's or Guarantor's
                    obligations to Lender;


                                      -10-
<PAGE>


                 b) Waive or impair any rights, powers or remedies of Lender
                    under the Loan Documents;

                 c) Constitute an agreement by Lender or require Lender to
                    extend any period of forbearance or grant additional
                    forbearance or extend the term of the Loan Agreement or the
                    time for payment of any of Borrower's or Guarantor's
                    obligations to Lender, none of which Lender agrees or has
                    agreed to do, and all of which matters are in Lender's sole
                    and absolute discretion; or

                 d) Require Lender to make any loans or other extensions of
                    credit to Borrower or Guarantors at the termination of the
                    period of forbearance set forth in this Agreement.

         7. CONFIRMATION OF GUARANTY. Guarantor reaffirms its obligations under
the Guaranty and reaffirms and restates each and every term, condition and
provision of the Guaranty. In addition, Guarantor hereby agrees that its
obligations under the Guaranty shall be unconditional, irrespective of (1) the
absence of any attempt to collect under the Loan Documents from Borrower or any
other guarantor or any other action to enforce the same, or (2) the waiver or
consent by Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the
Loan Documents or any party thereof. Guarantor further reaffirms that its
obligations under the Guaranty are primary and are separate and distinct from
Borrower's obligations. Guarantor further represents and warrants that it has no
defense or claims against Lender that would or might affect the enforceability
of the Guaranty and that the Guaranty remains in full force and effect.

         8. RELEASE. By this Agreement, Borrower, Guarantor, Christie Tyler,
Keenan Cheung, CRD Holdings, and CRD Arizona ("Releasors") for themselves, their
successors and assigns, release, acquit and forever discharge Lender, its
agents, servants, successors, heirs, executors, officers, directors,
shareholders, employees, attorneys, or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate
entity, past, present or future, from any and all rights, claims, demands,
losses, debts, damages, obligations, costs, including attorneys' fees,
liabilities, rights of action, causes of action, suits, liens, expenses,
compensation, indemnities, responsibilities or damage of every kind and nature,
whether in law or in equity, or known or unknown, or suspected or unsuspected,
which Releasors ever had or now have or make claim to or have against Lender of
any type, nature or description arising out of, relating to, or in any way
connected with the Loan Documents, the Action or the Gisa Transaction.

         It is the intention of Releasors that this Agreement shall be effective
as a full and final release of each and every claim, obligation and matter
included within the claims released herein. In furtherance of this intention,
Releasors hereby expressly waive the provisions of California Civil Code section
1542 or any similar state or federal law, which provides that:

                  A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor
                  does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of
                  executing the release, which if known by him must have
                  materially affected his settlement with the debtor.



                                      -12-
<PAGE>



         Releasors acknowledge, warrant and represent that they are familiar
with section 1542 of the California Civil Code and that the effective import of
that provision has been fully explained to them by their attorneys, and
specifically waive and relinquish any right or benefit which they may have under
California Civil Code section 1542 to the full extent they may lawfully waive
such right or benefit. In connection with such waiver and relinquishment
Releasors acknowledge that they fully understand that they may hereafter
discover facts in addition to or different from those which they now know or
believe to be true with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, but
that it is their intention hereby to fully, finally and forever release the
claims, released herein, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which now
exist, may exist in the future and heretofore have existed, and that in
furtherance of such intention, the release given herein shall be and remain in
effect as a full and complete release of the matters released herein,

                           RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM

                  b)       JURISDICTION AND FORUM: In any action arising out of
                           the Loan Documents, this Agreement, the Stipulation,
                           or any claim related to the conduct of the parties in
                           connection with the Loan Documents, the parties agree
                           that any action shall be brought in the United States
                           District Court for the Central District of California
                           and consent to the jurisdiction of that court to
                           resolve any and all such disputes.

                  c)       CONFLICT. To the extent any provision of this dispute
                           resolution clause is different than the terms of any

                           clause shall prevail.

         10.      MISCELLANEOUS.

                  a)       AGREEMENT TO COOPERATE. All parties agree to and will
                           cooperate fully with each other in the performance of
                           this Agreement and the Loan Documents, including,
                           without limitation, executing any additional
                           documents and instruments reasonable or necessary to
                           the full performance of this Agreement.

                  b)       INTEGRATION. This Agreement incorporates all the
                           negotiations of the parties hereto and is the final
                           expression and agreement of the parties as of the
                           effective date. Borrower and Guarantor each
                           acknowledge that they are relying on no written or
                           oral agreement, representation, warranty or
                           understanding of any kind made by Lender or any
                           employee or agent of Lender, except for the
                           agreements of the Lender set forth herein or in the
                           other Loan Documents. Except as expressly

                           set forth in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents
                           remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

                  c)       SEVERABILITY. In case any provision of this Agreement
                           shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such
                           provision shall be severable from the remainder of
                           this Agreement and the validity, legality and
                           enforceability of the remaining shall not in any way
                           be affected or impaired thereby.

                  d)       MODIFICATION. This Agreement may not amended, waived
                           or modified in any manner without the written consent
                           of all the parties hereto.

                  e)       BINDING EFFECT; NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This
                           Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
                           benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto,
                           their respective successors and assigns. No other
                           person or entity shall be entitled to claim any right
                           or benefit hereunder, including, without limitation,
                           the status of a third party beneficiary hereunder,
                           except the parties receiving the release in Section 7
                           above.

                  f)       DEBTOR-CREDITOR RELATIONSHIP. This Agreement and the
                           other Loan Documents shall not be deemed or construed
                           to create a partnership, tenancy in common, joint
                           tenancy, joint venture, co-ownership or any other
                           relationship aside from a continuing debtor-creditor
                           relationship between Borrower and Guarantor on the
                           one hand, and Lender on the other.

                  g)       BANKRUPTCY. In the event Borrower seeks relief under
                           Title 11 of the United States Code, Borrower agrees
                           that it will not oppose a motion



                                      -15-

                           for relief from stay by Lender pursuant to 11 U.S.C.
                           Section 362 unless it continues to make the payments
                           required under this Agreement. Borrower acknowledges
                           and agrees that such payments made in a timely manner
                           represent adequate protection of Lender's interest in
                           the Vehicle Collateral.

                  h)       REIMBURSEMENT OF ATTORNEYS' FEES AND COSTS. Borrower
                           and Guarantor shall reimburse Lender for all costs
                           and expenses, including without limitation,
                           reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (and
                           fees and disbursements of Lender's in-house counsel)
                           expended or incurred by Lender subsequent to the
                           effective date of this Agreement in any arbitration,
                           mediation, judicial reference, legal action or
                           otherwise in connection with (a) the negotiation,
                           preparation, amendment, interpretation, and
                           enforcement of the Loan Documents, including without
                           limitation, during any workout, attempted workout,
                           and/or in connection with the rendering of legal
                           advise as to Lender's rights, remedies and
                           obligations under the Loan Documents, (b) collecting
                           any sum which becomes due Lender under any Loan
                           Document, (c) any proceeding for declaratory relief,
                           any counterclaim to any proceeding, or any appeal, or
                           (d) the protection, preservation or enforcement of
                           any rights of Lender. For purposes of this Section,
                           attorneys' fees shall include without limitation,
                           fees incurred in connection with the following: (1)
                           contempt proceedings; (2) discovery; (3) any motion,
                           proceeding or other activity of any kind in



                                      -16-

                           connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or case
                           arising out of or relating to any petition under
                           Title 11 of the United States Code, as the same shall
                           be in effect from time to time, or any similar law;
                           (4) garnishment, levy and debtor and third party
                           examination; and (5) post judgment motions and
                           proceedings of any kind, including without
                           limitation, any activity taken to collect or enforce
                           any judgment. All of such costs and expenses shall
                           bear interest from the time of demand at the rate
                           then in effect under the Security Agreements.

                  i)       GOVERNING LAW. Except as otherwise provided herein,

                           rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be
                           governing by the laws of the State of California
                           without regard to principles concerning choice of
                           law. In any action arising out of or connected with
                           this Agreement, Borrower and Guarantor each hereby
                           expressly consent to the personal jurisdiction of any
                           state and federal court located in the State of
                           California and also consent to service of process by
                           any means authorized by federal or governing state
                           law.

                  j)       COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any
                           number of counterparts which, when taken together,

                  k)       CONFIDENTIALITY. The Parties and their counsel agree
                           that they will not disclose the terms of this
                           Agreement, specifically or generally, except to the
                           extent reasonably believed necessary to comply with
                           applicable

                           law or regulations, to carry out the obligations set
                           forth in this Agreement, or to respond to requests by
                           their auditors.

                  l)       INTERPRETATION. In the event of any inconsistency
                           between the terms of this Agreement and any other
                           Loan Document, this Agreement shall govern. Borrower

                           negotiation, execution and delivery of this
                           Agreement, or have had an opportunity to so consult
                           and have knowingly chosen not to do so. This
                           Agreement shall be construed without regard to any
                           presumption or rule requiring that it be construed
                           against the party causing this Agreement or any part
                           hereof to be drafted. The headings used in this
                           Agreement are for convenience only and shall be
                           disregarded in interpreting the substantive
                           provisions of this agreement.

                                        1    STIPULATION FOR JUDGEMENT AND ENTRY
                                                                     OF JUDGMENT

                                    RECITALS

         A. On November 19, 2002, Ford Credit filed its complaint in District
Court for the Central District of California, Los Angeles Division, as Case No.
02-8880 GHK(RCx). The complaint alleges six causes of action: (1) Breach of
Security Agreement Against Defendant CRD; (2) Replevin (Claim and Delivery)
against Defendant CRD; (3) Specific Performance against Defendant CRD; (4)
Injunctive Relief against Defendant CRD; (5) Breach of Continuing Guaranty
Against Defendant MAII; (6) Book Account against Defendant CRD; and, (7)
Conversion against Defendant CRD (the "Complaint").

         B. On or about January 10, 2003, this court issued a Memorandum of
Decision and Order for Writ of Possession in favor of Ford Credit and against
Defendants CRD and MAII. Neither CRD nor MAII have filed answers to the
Complaint.

         C. After various settlement discussions, CRD and MAII have agreed to
make payments to payoff and satisfy all amounts that they owe to Ford Credit.
The specific terms for repayment of the principal obligation and all past due
and defaulted payments on that principal obligation are set forth in the terms
of a separately executed Forbearance Agreement and Release (the "Agreement").
CRD and MAII entered into the Agreement at the same time that they have executed
this Stipulation. The terms for repayment as set forth in the Agreement are
incorporated herein. If CRD or MAII default on the payments as set forth below,
then Ford Credit may file this Stipulation and seek entry of judgment in the
amount of $13,024,382.92, plus accrued interest, costs, and attorney's fees as
allowed under the Agreement, less credit for any payments made thereto.

         D. The Agreement is to remain confidential and is not to be appended to
this Stipulation but its terms are fully incorporated herein. In the event of a
default under the terms of the Agreement or this Stipulation, Ford Credit may
submit a copy of the Agreement to the Court in support of its application for
entry of Judgment without violating the confidentiality provision of the
Agreement or this Stipulation.

         1. INCORPORATION OF RECITALS. Each of the recital paragraphs A through
D, inclusive, are incorporated by this reference and admitted by the parties to
be true. The recitals are part of the entire agreement between the parties, and
their terms are contractual and not mere recitals.

         2. STIPULATION TO JUDGMENT. CRD and MAII stipulate to judgment in favor
of Ford Credit in the amount of $13,024,382.92, plus all accrued interest,
costs, and attorney's fees as are allowed under the Agreement, less credit for
any payments made thereto. In addition, any judgment entered shall include
judgment for possession of all of Ford Credit's collateral as identified in the
complaint and the Order for Writ of Possession. CRD and MAII hereby consent to
and approve of the form and content of the judgment (the "Judgment") which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 1. CRD and MAII consent to and approve of and admit
the enforceability of the form and content of the Judgment. Ford Credit agrees
to forbear from entering the Judgment pursuant to this Stipulation so long as
CRD and MAII comply with the terms described in Paragraph 4 below and as set
forth in the Agreement. The specific terms and schedule for payment of the
obligation are set forth in the Agreement and those terms are incorporated
herein by reference. Ford Credit specifically agrees that if all payments are
tendered timely then the dispute set forth by the lawsuit shall be deemed
satisfied for the amounts specified in the Agreement and Ford Credit shall move
promptly to dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice.

to comply with the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26 or any
local rules intended to move this action to a final judgment. The intent of this
Stipulation is to finally conclude the litigation and disputes between the
parties subject to a default in the performance of the Stipulation and/or
Agreement.

         3. ENTRY OF AND EXECUTION ON JUDGMENT. Ford Credit agrees to forbear
from filing and entering the Judgment in the amount of $13,024,382.92, plus all
accrued interest, costs, and attorney's fees as are allowed under the Agreement,
less credit for any payments made thereto, and forbear from enforcing the
Judgment and initiating its rights and remedies under the Judgment, so long as
CRD and MAII comply with the terms described in Paragraph 4 below and

and shall pay and satisfy the amounts due and owing under this lawsuit pursuant
to the terms of the Stipulation and Agreement by making payment to Ford Credit
as set forth in Agreement. This Stipulation incorporates by reference the
specific terms and schedule for payment of the Judgment as are set forth in the
Agreement. Ford Credit specifically agrees that if all payments are tendered
timely as specified in this Stipulation and the Agreement, then Ford Credit
shall file a request for dismissal of this lawsuit with prejudice.

         5. ENFORCEMENT OF JUDGMENT. In the event CRD and MAII, either
individually or collectively, fail to comply with any term of Paragraph 4 of
this Stipulation above, and the Agreement, then Ford Credit shall no longer be
obligated to forbear from filing the Stipulation and seeking entry of Judgment.
Time is of the essence as to each and every obligation contained in this
Stipulation and the Agreement. Upon any default, Ford Credit may prepare and
file a competent declaration setting forth that CRD and/or MAII have defaulted
on the terms of the Stipulation and/or Agreement and an Ex Parte Application
requesting entry of Judgment in the form that is appended to this Stipulation. A
default by any one Defendant shall entitle Ford Credit to Judgment against both
Defendants. A copy of the Declaration, Ex Parte Application, and form of
proposed Judgment shall be faxed to Richard Griffin as counsel for CRD and MAII
at (713)752-4221 at any time prior to the filing of the Ex Parte Application.
CRD and MAII may not oppose entry of the Judgment on any grounds other than
competent evidence that they have not defaulted under the terms of the
Stipulation and/or Judgment. CRD and MAII shall have no opportunity for notice
and cure of the stated default(s). CRD and MAII waive the right to contest the
entry of Judgment on any other grounds other than a lack of breach. CRD and MAII
shall bear the burden of proof to establish the failure of a breach of the
Stipulation and/or Agreement. Any opposition to the entry of Judgment shall be
submitted to the District Court for the Central District

of California within three (3) court days after service of the Declaration and
Ex Parte Application on Richard Griffin. CRD and MAII shall serve any opposition
that it files with the Court on Mark Kenney, Esq., Severson & Werson, a
Professional Corporation, by facsimile transmission at (415) 956-0439.

of $13,024,382.92, plus all accrued interest, costs, and attorney's fees as
allowed under the Agreement, less credit for any payments made thereto. In
addition, the Judgment shall include judgment for possession of Ford Credit's
collateral, and in particular of the Vehicles as described in the Court's prior
order for Writ of Possession.

         CRD, MAII and Ford Credit expressly acknowledge and agree that Ford
Credit shall not be obligated to file any motion to seek entry of Judgment and
that the Court may enter the Judgment as set forth above. CRD and MAII expressly
waive any rights under CCP Section 664.6 to require Ford Credit to notice a
hearing before the Court enters the Judgment, unless the Court orders such
notice.

         6. EXECUTION OF JUDGMENT. After entry of Judgment, Ford Credit may take
any and all steps it chooses, in its absolute discretion, and as allowed by law
to execute the Judgment and enforce its rights.

covenants and conditions contained herein and in the Agreement shall be binding
upon the parties and their representatives, agents, assigns, heirs, and
successors-in-interest.

         8. ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event that any party brings an action to
enforce or interpret or for breach of this Stipulation, the prevailing party in
that action shall be entitled to recover his/its costs and attorneys' fees.

         9. GOVERNING LAW. This Stipulation and the rights and obligations of
the parties hereto shall be governed by the substantive and procedural law of

<PAGE>



         10. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. No provision of this Stipulation is
intended or shall be interpreted to provide or create any rights of any kind in
any third party, including without limitation any rights as a third party
beneficiary.

         11. FURTHER ASSURANCES. All of the parties hereto agree and will
cooperate fully with each other in the performance of this Stipulation, and will
execute such additional agreements, documents or instruments as may reasonably
be required to carry out the intent of the parties.

         12. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance
of the obligations required by this Stipulation.

         13. ENTIRE AGREEMENT, TERMS READ AND UNDERSTOOD. This Stipulation and
the Agreement contain the entire agreement between the parties hereto. The terms
of this Stipulation and Agreement are contractual and not mere recitals. The
undersigned hereby certify that they have read all of the foregoing Stipulation
and Agreement, including the Judgment and other exhibits, have conferred with
counsel pertaining to the same, and fully understand all of the terms hereof,
and the parties acknowledge and represent that they enter into this Stipulation
of their own will and not due to any representation, commitment, promise,
pressure or duress from any other party.

         14. COUNTERPARTS. This Stipulation may be executed and delivered in two
or more counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an
original, but such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.

         15. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this agreement is found to be
contrary to any law, that portion of this Stipulation may be severed from the
balance of the Stipulation and remaining provision will be fully enforceable.
