I. WHEREAS, the parties hereto wish to enter into this Agreement
pursuant to the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes.

----------------------
1.1 Subject to the conditions set forth herein on the "Closing Date"
(as herein defined), the subscribing Shareholders of Warp shall exchange all of
their shares of Warp for a total of 8,405,263 shares of RMI common stock. The
transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed at a closing
("Closing") on a closing date ("Closing Date"), which shall be as soon as
practical after compliance with all SEC regulations and Nevada Revised Statutes
but no later than June 30, 2003.
1.2 At the Closing Date, Warp shall become a wholly owned subsidiary of
RMI. Warp's shareholders shall receive pro rata shares of voting common stock,
par value $0.001 per share, as follows:
RMI shall issue 12.5 shares of its shares of common stock for
each one of the outstanding common shares of Warp owned by
subscribing shareholders of Warp, ratably according to their
interests.
1.3 The effective date of this Agreement for actions to be taken under
this Agreement is June 30, 2003.
ARTICLE II
Issuance and Exchange of Shares
---------------------------------
2.1 The shares of common stock of RMI, par value $0.001 per share,
shall be issued by it to the subscribing Warp shareholders at Closing.
-2-
2.2 RMI represents that no outstanding options or warrants for its
unissued shares exist.
2.3 The stock transfer books of Warp shall be closed on the Closing
Date, and thereafter no transfers of the stock of Warp shall be made. Warp shall
appoint an exchange agent ("Exchange Agent"), to accept surrender of the
certificates representing the common shares of Warp, and to deliver in exchange
for such surrendered certificates, shares of common stock of RMI. The
authorization of the Exchange Agent may be terminated by RMI after six months
following the Closing Date. Upon termination of such authorization, any shares
of Warp and any funds held by the Exchange Agent for payment to Warp
shareholders pursuant to this Agreement shall be transferred to RMI or its
designated agent who shall thereafter perform the obligations of the Exchange
Agent. If outstanding certificates for shares of Warp are not surrendered or the
payment for them not claimed prior to such date on which such payments would
otherwise escheat to or become the property of any governmental unit or agency,
the unclaimed items shall, to the extent permitted by abandoned property and
other applicable law, become the property of RMI (and to the extent not in its
possession shall be paid over to it), free and clear of all claims or interest
of any persons previously entitled to such items. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
neither the Exchange Agent nor any party to this Agreement shall be liable to
any holder of Warp shares for any amount paid to any governmental unit or agency
having jurisdiction of such unclaimed item pursuant to the abandoned property or
other applicable law of such jurisdiction.
2.4 No fractional shares of RMI stock shall be issued as a result of
the Agreement. Shares shall be rounded up to nearest whole share.
2.5 At the Closing Date, each holder of a certificate or certificates
representing common shares of Warp, upon presentation and surrender of such
certificate or certificates to the Exchange Agent, shall be entitled to receive
the consideration set forth herein, except that holders of those shares as to
which dissenters' rights shall have been validly asserted and perfected pursuant
to Delaware law shall not be converted into shares of RMI common stock, but
shall represent only such dissenters' rights. Upon such presentation, surrender,
and exchange as provided in this Section 2.5, certificates representing shares
of Warp previously held shall be canceled. Until so presented and surrendered,
each certificate or certificates which represented issued and outstanding shares
of Warp at the Closing Date shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence the
right to receive the consideration set forth in Section 1.2 of this Agreement.
If the certificates representing shares of Warp have been lost, stolen,
mutilated or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall require the submission of an
indemnity agreement and may require the submission of a bond in lieu of such
certificate.
