--------
WHEREAS, the Stockholders own beneficially and of record all of the issued
and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share (the "GLOBAL
Common Stock"), of GLOBAL; and
WHEREAS, SNELLING desires to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding
GLOBAL Common Stock, making GLOBAL a wholly-owned subsidiary of SNELLING and the
Stockholders desire to make a tax-free exchange of their GLOBAL Common Stock
solely for shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share (the "SNELLING
Common Stock"), of SNELLING; and

plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue

exchange solely for shares of SNELLING Common Stock.
1.2 Exchange of Stock. As of the date hereof, GLOBAL has 26,000,000 shares
of Common Stock issued and outstanding. At the Closing (as hereinafter defined),
all of such shares of GLOBAL Common Stock will be exchanged for 26,000,000
shares of restricted post reverse split SNELLING Common Stock. A list of the
holders of GLOBAL Common Stock, how many shares they own, and the shares of
SNELLING Common Stock each is to receive will be provided by GLOBAL to SNELLING
at least two business days prior to the date on which the Closing Date. This
list of GLOBAL shareholders shall be attached hereto as Exhibit "A". The
Stockholders represent and warrant to SNELLING that the shares of SNELLING
Common Stock that each will receive are being acquired for investment for each

except in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. The
Stockholders understand that the shares of SNELLING Common Stock they will
acquire have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), and applicable state securities law, that they are
"restricted securities" as defined under the Securities Act and that the
certificates representing such shares of SNELLING Common Stock will bear a
legend to such effect. The Stockholders further represent and warrant to
SNELLING that they are Accredited Investors (as defined pursuant to the
Securities Act) and that if any of the Stockholders is an entity, it was not
organized for the purpose of acquiring the SNELLING Common Stock. The
Stockholders have had access and examined through the Edgar program of the
Securities and Exchange Commission all reports, filings and other documents
filed by SNELLING with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
1.3 Delivery of Shares. At the Closing, certificates representing all of
the issued and outstanding shares of GLOBAL Common Stock shall be delivered to
SNELLING, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by appropriate stock powers
duly executed. SNELLING will receive valid title to such shares of GLOBAL Common
Stock, free and clear of all liens and other encumbrances. At the Closing,
SNELLING shall issue and deliver to the Stockholders shares of SNELLING Common
Stock as provided in the list delivered to SNELLING pursuant to Section 1.2.
1.4 Capital Structure of GLOBAL. The authorized capital stock of GLOBAL
consists of 20,000,000 shares of GLOBAL Common Stock, of which 20,000,000 shares
are issued and outstanding. No other class of stock is authorized.
1.5 Present Capital Structure of SNELLING. The authorized capital stock of
SNELLING consists of 100,000,000 shares of SNELLING Common Stock, of which
442,250 shares are issued and outstanding, and no shares of preferred stock. All

validly issued, and is fully paid and nonassessable and was issued free of
preemptive rights. Except for this Agreement, there are no outstanding options,
warrants, conversion rights, preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for,
purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of SNELLING Common Stock, or any
obligation of SNELLING to issue any shares of SNELLING Common Stock.
1.6 Capital Structure of SNELLING at the Closing. All of the liabilities of
SNELLING shall be satisfied in full prior to the Closing so that as of the
Closing it will have no assets or liabilities. Prior to the Closing, SNELLING
shall duly and validly adopt, in form and substance acceptable to GLOBAL,
corporate resolutions by unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors of
SNELLING and by the written consent of the holders of a majority of the SNELLING
Common Stock to authorize and approve the following actions:

of Incorporation or By-laws, issue any additional shares of SNELLING Common
Stock or any other security or grant any option, warrant or right to acquire any
shares of SNELLING Common Stock or any other security or alter or make any
change in any of its outstanding securities or its capitalization, whether by
reason of a reclassification, recapitalization, split, stock dividend,
combination, exchange or otherwise, or (ii) redeem, retire, purchase or
otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any shares of SNELLING Common Stock
or any other security or declare or pay any dividends or other distributions in
