represented by Carlo Bondone, Director and Special Attorney (hereinafter

                                    WHEREAS:

     A.   The parties have signed (or are the successors to the original party
          of) the Agreement for Strategic Alliance dated October 1, 1998
          ("Agreement") and a License Agreement dated October 30, 1998 ("License
          Agreement").

     B.   Prior to the date hereof, the entry fees and royalties required to be
          paid by Marelli to MIDAS under the Agreement and the License Agreement
          have been subsequently renegotiated according to Attachment A hereto.

     C.   The parties have thereafter and recently agreed on the additional
          modifications to the Agreement and the License Agreement set forth
          herein.

                      NOW THEREFORE IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS

     1.   Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
          contained in the Agreement and License Agreement, as applicable.

     2.   The royalties required to be paid by Marelli to MIDAS under the
          License Agreement from and after January 1, 2003, are hereby modified
          by agreement of the parties, and they will be as set forth below:

         (a)      Fixed Amounts
                  -------------

                  2003 = US $   8,40 MM
                  2004 = US $   8,82 MM
                  2005 = US $   9,26 MM
                  2006 = US $   9,72 MM
                  2007 = US $   8,90 MM



     (b)  Royalties on Turnover

          2008 and beyond = 1,00% of Gross Revenue, until such time as the
          Marelli business using the MIDAS System achieves annual Gross Revenue
          of US $650 MM, at which time, starting from the following fiscal year,
          the royalties on turnover shall be 1,25% of Gross Revenue

3.       With respect to the countries and continents set forth in Attachment B
         (the "New Countries") the entry fees otherwise required to be paid by
         Marelli to MIDAS under Section II, 5.3, of the Agreement are hereby
         modified by agreement of the parties, and, effective as of the date of
         this Amendment, they will be eliminated (including those still due
         under Attachment A hereto). Instead of entry fees, Marelli shall pay to
         MIDAS, for each new MIDAS shop opened in a New Country after the date
         of this Amendment (whether a newly-built MIDAS shop, an existing
         competitor's shop converted to a MIDAS shop, or otherwise) a new shop
         opening fee ("Shop Opening Fee") equal to:

         (a)  US $5,000 for each of the first fifty (50) new MIDAS shops opened
              in each New Country; and

         (b)  US $10,000 for each additional new MIDAS shop in excess of fifty
              (50) opened in each New Country.

         With respect to Russia, Great Britain, Ireland and South Africa, the
         Shop Opening Fee shall be equal to US $10,000 for each new MIDAS shop
         opened in such country or on such continent.

         No Shop Opening Fees are required to be paid by Marelli for Argentina,
         Turkey, Germany, Morocco and those countries set forth in Annex A to
         the Agreement.

4.       By completing the payments due to MIDAS under the Agreement and the
         License Agreement up to and including the date of this Amendment, and
         subject to Marelli's payment to MIDAS of the Shop Opening Fees provided
         under Section 3 above, Marelli will acquire exclusive rights to exploit
         the MIDAS System in the New Countries without any further obligation to
         pay New Country entry fees to MIDAS under Section II, 5.3, of the
         Agreement. Marelli is free to exploit the MIDAS System in the New
         Countries effective from the date hereof in the manner provided under
         the Agreement and the License Agreement.

5.       Marelli's exclusive right to exploit the MIDAS System in each of the
         New Countries, as contained in Section 4 above, is subject to Marelli
         submitting to MIDAS, on or before April 30, 2003, a Shop Development
         Plan reasonably acceptable to MIDAS, which sets forth the number of new
         MIDAS shops to be opened in each of the New Countries and the timeline
         for such openings, and meeting such development requirements in
         accordance with the schedule set forth thereon. Marelli shall have a
         one (1) year cure period for any failure to meet the Shop Development
         Plan.

6.       The support contemplated in Section II, 2.1, of the Agreement is
         intended to be only upon Marelli's written request to MIDAS.

                                        2



7.       The support contemplated in Section II, 2.2, of the Agreement will no
         longer be required to be made available to Marelli, which will arrange
         for any training on its own care and expenses.

8.       The reports mentioned under Section II, 2.6, of the Agreement will be
         exchanged by the parties on a semi-annual basis.

9.       The meetings under Section II, 2.5 and 2.7, of the Agreement are
         intended to be held on a semi-annual basis.

10.      By executing this Amendment, MIDAS is formally notifying Marelli that
         it does not intend to exercise its right of first option and first
         refusal under Section II, 5.5, of the Agreement to acquire Marelli's
         assets and rights relevant to the MIDAS system in the countries of
         Poland and Austria. However, any purchaser of those assets and rights
         must satisfy the requirements set forth in Section II, 5.5, of the
         Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by MIDAS, such
         agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed by MIDAS.

11.      All other terms and conditions of the Agreement and of the License
         Agreement not expressly modified by this Amendment shall remain
         unchanged and continue in full force and effect.
