-iii-
The parties to this Agreement, dated as of April 15, 1999, are FBR Capital
Corporation ("FBR"), a Nevada corporation having its principal place of business
at 00000 X. 00xx Xxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000; Vitrix Incorporated
("Vitrix"), an Arizona corporation having its principal place of business at 00
Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000; and each of the additional
parties (collectively "Shareholders" and individually "Shareholder"), severally,
whose respective names and addresses are shown with the signatures hereon. The
parties have agreed as follows.
1. RECITALS
The Shareholders are each shareholders of Vitrix. The purpose of this
Agreement is to provide for the acquisition by FBR of at least ninety percent
(90%) of the capital stock of Vitrix outstanding at the Closing (defined in
paragraph 4.2 hereof) in exchange for the issuance to the Shareholders, of a
certain number of shares of the Common Stock, $.005 par value, of FBR and of a
specified number of shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of FBR
(together, "FBR Shares") in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. It
is the intention of the parties that as soon as practicable after the Closing,
Vitrix shall be merged into FBR or a wholly-owned subsidiary of FBR, with any
remaining outstanding shares of Vitrix converted in such merger to FBR Shares on
the same basis as if such Vitrix shares were exchanged hereunder. For the
purpose of determining the number of FBR Shares to be issued to the Vitrix
Shareholders in this transaction, no effect is given to capital stock issuable
upon the exercise of the currently outstanding and unexercised stock purchase
warrants or options of either FBR or of Vitrix. It is, however, contemplated
that after the Closing of this transaction, (i) all warrants and options for the
purchase of Vitrix capital stock then outstanding will be converted, by due
action of the Board of Directors of FBR as then constituted, into warrants and
options to purchase such number of shares of FBR common stock as shall be
determined on the same basis as the ratio provided in this Agreement for the
exchange of Vitrix Common Stock for FBR Common Stock and (ii) the exercise price
thereunder shall be determined by dividing the aggregate exercise price under
the Vitrix warrants and options by the resulting number of shares of FBR Common
Stock.
This is intended to be a tax-free transaction under the Internal Revenue
Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder in which transaction Vitrix
shall become the subsidiary of XXX.
0. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS
OF VITRIX AND OF THE SHAREHOLDERS
As an inducement to FBR to enter into and to perform under this Agreement,
Vitrix and each Shareholder severally represents, warrants and agrees as

representations and warranties only on the basis of his or its own respective
knowledge (as defined in Section 9.5) and only with respect to Vitrix and such
Shareholder. The representations and warranties are true in all material
respects as of the date hereof and will be true and correct in all material
respects on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made on
such date.

2.1 ORGANIZATION AND GOOD STANDING OF VITRIX.
Vitrix is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Arizona, with full power and authority

description does not contain any untrue statement of any material fact nor does
it omit any statement of fact necessary to make the statements made therein not
misleading. There is no fact known to Vitrix or any Shareholder which has not
been disclosed in this Agreement or any Schedule hereto, which materially
adversely affects, or which may in the future (as far as Vitrix or any
Shareholder can reasonably foresee) materially adversely affect, the financial
condition, results of operations, business, properties, assets, liabilities, or
future prospects of Vitrix; provided, however, that no representation is made
herein as to political or economic matters of general applicability, or the
effect of any future technological developments by competitors of Vitrix which
are not currently known to Vitrix or the Shareholders.
2.4 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.
Except as described in Schedule 2.4 attached hereto, Vitrix is in
compliance with all requirements (including those relating to environmental
matters) of federal, state and local law, and all requirements of all
governmental bodies and agencies having jurisdiction over it or its assets and
properties and all premises occupied by it, except where failure to comply would
not have a material adverse effect. Without limiting the foregoing, Vitrix has
properly filed all reports, paid all monies and obtained all licenses, permits,
certificates and authorizations needed or required for the conduct of its
business and the use of its assets and properties and the premises occupied by
it and is in compliance in all material respects with all conditions,
restrictions and provisions of any of the foregoing, except where failure to
comply would not have a material adverse effect. Vitrix has not received any
notice from any federal, state or local authority or any insurance or inspection
body that any of its assets, properties, facilities, equipment or business
procedures or practices or its assets and properties fails to comply with any
applicable law, ordinance, regulation, building or zoning law or requirement of
any public authority or body.
2.5 LICENSES, PERMITS AND FRANCHISES.

liabilities for federal, state, local, or foreign taxes and liabilities to
customers, or suppliers, other than the following:
(a) Liabilities for which full provision has been made on the latest
balance sheet ("Last Vitrix Balance Sheet") which is a part of
Schedule 2.6 hereof; or
(b) Other liabilities arising since the Last Vitrix Balance Sheet Date and
prior to the Closing (as hereinbelow defined) in the ordinary course
of business which are not inconsistent with the representations and
warranties of Vitrix or any Shareholder or of any other provision of
this Agreement.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the amounts set up as
provisions for taxes on the Last Vitrix Balance Sheet are sufficient for all
accrued and unpaid federal, state, local, and foreign taxes of Vitrix, whether
or not due and whether or not disputed, under tax laws as in effect on the Last
Balance Sheet Date or now in effect, for the period ended on that date and for
all fiscal years prior thereto. Vitrix has filed all federal state, local, and
foreign tax returns required to be filed by it, and has paid (or has established
on the Last Vitrix Balance Sheet a reserve for) all taxes, assessments, and
other governmental charges payable or remittable by it or levied upon it or its
properties, assets, income, or franchises which are due and payable.
2.7 VITRIX LITIGATION AND CLAIMS.
Except as disclosed in Schedule 2.7 attached hereto, there is no
litigation, arbitration, claim, governmental or other proceeding (formal or
informal) or investigation pending or threatened (or any basis therefor known to
Vitrix or any Shareholder) with respect to Vitrix, any Shareholder (to the
extent material to this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby) or any
of its or his, to the extent material to this Agreement, business, properties,
or assets. Vitrix is not affected by any present or threatened strike or other
labor disturbance nor, to the knowledge of Vitrix or any Shareholder, is any
union attempting to represent any employee of Vitrix as collective bargaining
agent. Vitrix is not, in any material respect, in violation of, or in default
with respect to, any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, or decree; nor is
Vitrix or any Shareholder required to take any specific affirmative action,
outside of the ordinary course, in order to avoid such a violation or default.
2.8 VITRIX CONTRACT AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS.
Schedule 2.8 attached hereto describes each material contract, agreement,
instrument, lease, license or understanding (collectively referred to as
"Material Contracts") to which Vitrix is a party or by which it is bound which
is not listed on any other Schedule to this Agreement. Vitrix has furnished to
FBR:
(a) The certificate of incorporation (or other charter document) and
by-laws of Vitrix and all amendments thereto, as presently in effect,
certified by the Secretary of the corporation, and

Neither Vitrix or any Shareholder, nor (to the knowledge of Vitrix or any
Shareholder) any other party to any of the Material Contracts is now or expects
in the future to be in violation or breach of, or in default with respect to
complying with, any material provision thereof, and each Material Contract is in
full force and is the legal, valid, and binding obligation of the parties
thereto and is enforceable as to them in accordance with its terms (subject to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, other laws affecting the enforceability of
creditors' rights generally, and to the discretion of the court with respect to
the granting of equitable remedies). Each Material Contract is a valid and
continuing contract; neither Vitrix nor any other party to such Material
Contract has given notice of termination or taken any action inconsistent with
the continuance of such arrangement or understanding, and the execution,
delivery, and performance of this Agreement will not prejudice any such
arrangement or understanding in any way. Vitrix enjoys peaceful and undisturbed
possession under all leases and licenses under which it is operating. Vitrix is
not a party to or bound by any Material Contract or subject to any charter or
other restriction, which has had, or (to the knowledge of Vitrix or any
Shareholder) could reasonably be expected to in the future have, a material
adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, business,
properties, assets, liabilities, or future prospects of Vitrix or FBR.

intention to have any Material Contract with, any Shareholder, any director,
officer, or employee of Vitrix, any relative or affiliate of any Shareholder or
of any director, officer, or employee, or any other corporation or enterprise in
which any Shareholder, any director, officer, or employee, or any relative or
affiliate then had or now has a five percent or greater equity or voting or
other substantial interest, other than Material Contracts described and so
specified in Schedule 2.8. The stock ledgers and stock transfer books and the
minute book records of Vitrix relating to all issuances and transfers of stock
by Vitrix, and all proceedings of the shareholders and the Board of Directors
and committees thereof of Vitrix since its incorporation made available to FBR's
counsel are the original stock ledgers and stock transfer books and minute book
records of Vitrix or exact copies thereof.
Vitrix is not in violation or breach of, or in default with respect to, any
term of its certificate of incorporation (or other charter document) or by-laws,
except where such violation, breach, or default would not have a material
adverse effect.
2.9 VITRIX PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, ETC.

application, trade name, service xxxx, copyright, franchise, or other intangible

Closing or earlier rightful termination of this Agreement, Vitrix will and the
Shareholders will cause Vitrix to conduct its business and operations, in all
respects, only in the ordinary course.
7.3 ADVICE OF CHANGES.
Until the Closing or the earlier rightful termination as contemplated under
this Agreement, Vitrix will and the Shareholders will immediately advise FBR, in
a detailed written notice, of any fact or occurrence or any pending or
threatened occurrence of which any of them obtains knowledge and which
(a) if existing and known at the date of the execution of this Agreement
would have been required to be set forth or disclosed in or pursuant
to this Agreement or a Schedule hereto,
(b) if existing and known at any time prior to or at the Closing would
make the performance by any party of a covenant contained in this
Agreement impossible or make that performance materially more
difficult than in the absence of that fact or occurrence, or
(c) if existing and known at the time of the Closing would cause a
condition to any party's obligations under this Agreement not to be
fully satisfied.
8. COVENANTS OF FBR
8.1 ACCESS.
FBR will afford the officers, employees, attorneys, agents, investment
bankers, accountants, and other representatives of Vitrix during normal business
hours access to the plants, properties, books, and records of FBR, will permit

time to time, furnish Vitrix with such additional financial and operating data
and other information as to the financial condition, results of operations,
business, properties, assets, liabilities, or future prospects of FBR that
Vitrix from time to time may request. FBR will cause the independent certified
public accountants of FBR to make available to Vitrix and its independent
certified public accountants the work papers relating to the FBR Financial
Statements.
8.2 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS.
FBR will conduct its affairs so that at the Closing no representation or
warranty of FBR will be inaccurate, no covenant or agreement of FBR will be
breached, and no condition in this Agreement will remain unfulfilled by reason
of the actions or omissions of FBR. Except as otherwise requested by Vitrix in
writing, until the Closing or the earlier rightful termination of this
Agreement, FBR will use its best efforts to preserve intact the business
operations of FBR, to keep available the services of its present personnel, to
preserve in full force and effect the Material Contracts, and to preserve the
goodwill of its suppliers, customers, and others having business relations with
it. Until the Closing or earlier rightful termination of this Agreement, FBR
will conduct its business and operations, in all respects, only in the ordinary
course.
-21-
8.3 ADVICE OF CHANGES.
Until the Closing or the earlier rightful termination as contemplated under
this Agreement, FBR will immediately advise Vitrix, in a detailed written
notice, of any fact or occurrence or any pending or threatened occurrence of
which any of them obtains knowledge and which (a) if existing and known at the
date of the execution of this Agreement would have been required to be set forth
or disclosed in or pursuant to this Agreement or a Schedule hereto, (b) if
existing and known at any time prior to or at the Closing would make the
performance by any party of a covenant contained in this Agreement impossible or
make that performance materially more difficult than in the absence of that fact
or occurrence, or (c) if existing and known at the time of the Closing would
cause a condition to any party's obligations under this Agreement not to be
fully satisfied.

transactions contemplated thereby which is intended for or may result in the
public dissemination thereof, it shall cooperate with Vitrix and the
Shareholders, shall furnish them with drafts of all documents or proposed oral

-22-

Since a material breach of the provisions of this Agreement could not
adequately be compensated by money damages, any party shall be entitled, either
before or after the Closing, in addition to any other right or remedy available
to it, to an injunction restraining the breach or threatened breach of this
Agreement and to specific performance of any provision of this Agreement, and,
in either case, no bond or other security shall be required in connection
therewith, and the parties hereby consent to the issuance of such an injunction
and to the ordering of specific performance.

shall survive the Closing and any delivery of the FBR Shares by FBR in respect
of any investigation made by or on behalf of any party.
9.5 KNOWLEDGE OF VITRIX SHAREHOLDERS.
For purposes of this Agreement, when any representation, warranty or
statement is made to the "knowledge" of a Vitrix Shareholder, "knowledge" shall
mean the actual knowledge of such Shareholder without additional inquiry;
provided, however, that any Shareholder who has served as a director and/or
officer of Vitrix shall be presumed to have such knowledge as would be gained in
the course of such service by a person of reasonable prudence and diligence
acting in the proper exercise of his fiduciary obligations.
9.6 APPOINTMENT OF SHAREHOLDERS' AGENT.

of Shareholders for all purposes of this Agreement. Without giving notice to

Agreement, except for his criminal acts (acts which would constitute crimes were
-23-
they prosecuted therefor and convicted thereof), acts constituting bad faith or
acts constituting willful misconduct, the Representative is not and shall not in
any way be liable to the Shareholders for any acts or omissions taken in his
capacity as Representative, either directly or indirectly, in connection with
this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby.
9.7 MODIFICATION.
This Agreement and the attachments hereto set forth the entire
understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof,
supersede all existing agreements among them concerning the subject matter, and
may be modified only by a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of
each party with the approval of the Board of Directors of each corporate party
(except as otherwise provided in paragraph 9.5).
9.8 NOTICES.
Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by certified mail, return
receipt requested (or by the most nearly comparable method if mailed from or to
a location outside of the united States), or delivered against receipt to the
party to whom it is to be given at the address of that party set forth in the
preamble to this Agreement (or to another address the party shall have furnished
in writing in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph 9.7) with a copy
to each of the other parties hereto. Any notice given to any corporate party
shall be addressed to the attention of the Corporate secretary. Notice to the

this paragraph 9.7. Any notice or other communication given by certified mail
(or by such comparable method) shall be deemed given at the time of
certification thereof (or comparable act), except for a notice changing a
party's address which will be deemed given at the time of receipt thereof.
9.9 NO WAIVER.
Any waiver by any party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement
shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of that
provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement. The failure
of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on one
or more occasions will not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the
right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term
of this Agreement. Any waiver must be in writing and, in the case of a corporate
party, be authorized by a resolution of the Board of Directors or by a duly
authorized officer of the waiving party.
9.10 SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS.
The representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements of Shareholders
in this Agreement are several, but no Shareholder shall have any rights against
Vitrix if a remedy is sought or obtained against any Shareholder because both
Vitrix and any Shareholder breach a representation, warranty, covenant, or
agreement.
9.11 BINDING EFFECT.

rights enforceable by any person not a party to this Agreement (except as
provided in paragraph 9.10).
9.13 SEVERABILITY.
If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable,
the balance of this Agreement shall remain in effect, and if any provision is
inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain
applicable to all other persons and circumstances.

shall be given no effect in the construction or interpretation of this
Agreement.
