    Re: Millennia Purchase - Quaker Car Wash, Inc.
        ------------------------------------------

    Dear Patrick:

    It is my understanding that you and Reed Fisher discussed an extension of
    the escrow this morning. As you know, Millennia Car Wash, LLC ("Millennia")
    has the absolute right to cancel the Purchase and Sale escrow and receive a
    return of the Millennia monies held therein. As you also know, Millennia
    prefers not to cancel the escrow. Therefore, Millennia hereby notifies you
    that Millennia will refrain from exercising its right to cancel and demand
    return of its monies today, specifically conditioned on your agreement to
    (i) extend the date in BPI Item 21 - Days From Opening (Earliest Date On
    Which Buyer's Deposit Becomes Non-Refundable) to December 29, 1998 and (ii)
    extend the date in BPI Item 24 - Date for Close of Escrow - to not later
    than March 2, 1999.

    In order to accept this offer to refrain from canceling escrow immediately,
    Seller must indicate its acceptance by signing below. Further, a copy of
    this signed letter must be returned by FAX to me at 949-498-7772 and to
    Millennia at 760-635-0578 today, and the original sent via FedEx or other
    expedited service for delivery tomorrow, if possible, otherwise the
    following day. The FedEx should be sent to the Millennia offices at 511
    Encinitas Blvd., Suite 100, Encinitas, CA 92024, Attention: Carrie Tonini.
    In the absence of Seller's agreement and receipt of evidence thereof, this
    letter shall serve as notification that the escrow is canceled. I will be
    out of my office tomorrow, making time extremely short. If any signature
    lines have been overlooked, please add a signature sheet as necessary.

    Except as stated above, Millennia is not waiving, relinquishing, or
    modifying any rights or privileges whatsoever.

    As Reed has already told you, if you desire more information concerning the
    proposed extension, Stephen Prior is at the Millennia offices (phone
    760-635-0492) today and should be able to assist you.
