                                  New Contract

Following the successful delivery of 250 containers in late 2004, AeroBox
Composite Structures, LLC has now signed a contract with Virgin Atlantic Airways
Limited for an additional 250 containers. The sale is composed of 100 units at
the standard weight of 83 kilos for immediate delivery. The remaining 150 units
weighing approximately 79 kilos are scheduled for delivery in the fourth quarter
of this year.

Charles Edwards, President of AeroBox Composite Structures, LLC said: "There is
no higher recommendation than to receive a follow-on order and this is our first
repeat customer order to date. Virgin Atlantic was the initial airline that
trialed AeroBox containers in 2003 and clearly like what they see. However,
intense competition from aluminium box manufacturers means that the sales
margins on new orders are unlikely to be as satisfactory as had been previously
projected."
