AGREEMENT TO MAKE CONTRIBUTION: Parent owns 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Swiss Asset Management, Inc. (the "SAMI Stock"), which consists of one thousand (1,000) shares of common stock, no par value.

At the date of the contribution of SAMI Stock to American, Parent agrees that the net book value (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals) of SAMI shall be at least Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) and, in the event SAMI's net book value is less than Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000), Parent shall, at Parent's election made in Parent's sole and absolute discretion, either (i) make additional contributions of capital to SAMI in an amount equal to the difference between SAMI's actual net book value and Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) (the "Book Value Shortfall") for the purposes of funding additional loans to be extended by SAMI or (ii) purchase shares of American's unissued common stock at a price of $9.00 per share in the amount of the Book Value Shortfall, which purchase price shall be paid to American to be used in funding additional loans to be extended by SAMI or for such other purpose as American's board of directors determines. In addition, after consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, Parent agrees to ensure by such means as it deems appropriate that American is able to fulfill the following obligations as they become due (provided that such agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any defense otherwise available to American against the enforcement of such obligations): $405,000 obligation to the Humber family; $85,000 obligation to Why USA Financial Group; and $70,000 obligation for Employee CSV Insurance. 2. ISSUANCE OF STOCK: In consideration of the capital contribution referenced in Section 1 hereof, American shall issue to Parent 1,695,654 shares of American's authorized but unissued no par value common stock valued in connection with the capital contribution referenced in Section 1 hereof, at $9.00 per share (the "Stock"), and a warrant to acquire up to an additional 500,000 shares of American's authorized but unissued common capital stock at a price of $10.00 per share, such warrants to be exercisable at any time for a period of thirty (30) months from the date hereof (the "Warrant").

Upon any occurrence specified in Subsection 1.1(a) or (b) above, the Exercise Price will be adjusted so as to equal the quotient of (i) the sum of (a) the product of the number of shares of Stock outstanding immediately before such occurrence multiplied by the then effective Exercise Price plus (b) the consideration, if any, which shall have been received by the Company upon such occurrence, divided by (ii) the total number of shares of Stock outstanding immediately after such occurrence rounded to the nearest full cent; 13 provided, however, that the Exercise Price resulting from any such adjustment will in no event exceed the Exercise Price which would be in effect but for the making of such adjustment. 1.3 Any occurrence specified in Subsection 1.1(c) will be deemed to be an issuance of the maximum number of shares of Stock purchasable upon exercise of the conversion or other rights contemplated in Subsection 1.1(c), with such shares to be presumed issued for a consideration equal to the sum of that received by the Company for the issuance of the security conferring such rights plus that payable to the Company upon exercise of such rights. The Exercise Price and number of shares of Stock purchasable under this Warrant will, upon any occurrence specified in Subsection 1.1(c), be adjusted in the manner stated in Subsection 1.2. No further adjustment is to be made upon the issuance of additional shares of Stock at the time of the exercise of the rights contemplated in Subsection 1.1(c); however, further adjustment will be made upon expiration of such rights (unexercised) to eliminate adjustments made on account of the issuance of this Warrant as aforesaid; and in case the additional consideration payable upon the exercise of any such rights (remaining exercisable) is increased, or the number of shares deliverable is decreased, appropriate adjustments will be made to reflect such increase or decrease. 1.4. In computing cash consideration received or to be received by the Company upon any such issuance, no deduction will be made for any underwriting or brokerage discounts or commissions. In computing consideration consisting of something other than cash, the amount of this Warrant will be deemed to be its value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, irrespective of the accounting treatment of this Warrant. Additional shares of Stock, or securities convertible into Stock, issuable by way of a stock dividend will be presumed to have been issued, without consideration to the Company therefor, immediately before the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such dividend. Split or combined shares of Stock resulting from a stock split or reverse split will be presumed to have been issued at the time the split or reverse split becomes effective. Each adjustment required pursuant to Subsections 1.2 and 1.3 by any occurrence in this Warrant contemplated will be deemed made as of the close of business on the actual or presumed (as above stated) date of issuance of the Stock involved in such occurrence. 1.5. Upon each such adjustment in the Exercise Price, the number of shares of Stock purchasable under this Warrant will be adjusted by dividing the Total Purchase Price by the per share Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment rounded up to the nearest whole number. 1.6. If the Company consolidates with or merges into any other corporation or transfers substantially all of its assets to any other corporation, the surviving or acquiring corporation will execute and deliver to the holder a supplement to this Warrant providing that the holder has the right to purchase under this Warrant the kind and amount of securities to which such holder would be entitled upon such consolidation, merger or transfer were he then to own the number of shares of Stock of the Company which is purchasable under this Warrant immediately before such consolidation, merger or transfer. Any such supplement will provide for adjustments as nearly equivalent as practicable to those provided for in this Section 1. 14 1.7. Notice of each adjustment or of any consolidation, merger or transfer, will be mailed to the holder of this Warrant at its address as it then appears on the Company's books. 1.8. The foregoing provisions of this Section 1 will apply to successive occurrences requiring adjustment or supplement as above provided. 2. This Warrant is exercisable at any time before the close of business on its expiration date, as to all, and from time to time during such period as to any part, of the shares of Stock which the holder is at the time entitled to purchase. 2.1. To effect any such exercise, the holder must surrender this Warrant, before its expiration, to the Company at its principal office, with the form of subscription attached hereto properly executed and with payment in full of the purchase price for the shares being purchased under this Warrant. Unless a registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is in effect with respect to such shares or unless the necessity for doing so is waived by the Company upon advice of legal counsel, any such surrender must be accompanied by the holder's affirmation of his investment intention and intent to comply with the Rules and Regulations promulgated under such Act, in form satisfactory to the Company, relative to the Stock being purchased by him. 2.2. As soon as practicable after such surrender, the Company will issue and deliver at its said office to such holder, or on the holder's written order (if consistent with his aforementioned investment intention), a certificate or certificates for the number of shares purchased and, in the case of any partial exercise of this Warrant, a new Warrant for the balance of the shares of Stock which remains purchasable under this Warrant. No adjustment is to be made upon exercise for dividends on shares of Stock issuable pursuant to such exercise. 2.3. Any such exercise will be deemed effected immediately before the close of business on the date when this Warrant has so been surrendered, and payment of the purchase price made, to the Company, and at that time the person in whose name the stock certificate or certificates are issuable as aforesaid will be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares evidenced. 3. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Stock, the full number of shares of Stock then issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. All shares of Stock which may be issued upon such exercise will, when issued, be fully paid and non-assessable. Pending such exercise, this Warrant confers no right to vote or consent or to receive notice as a stockholder of the Company, as such, with respect to any matter whatsoever, or any other rights or privileges as a stockholder of the Company. 15 4. At least fifteen days before any date on which a holder of Stock of the Company must appear of record on its books in order to participate tin this Warrant, the Company will give to the holder of this Warrant written notice of any proposed distribution of assets of the Company upon its dissolution or liquidation or of any dividend to be paid other than (i) out of earned surplus or (ii) by way of a dividend payable in shares of Stock. 5. This Warrant is issuable in fully registered form only. Subject to the effect of any investment representation made by the holder with respect thereto, this Warrant is transferable by the registered holder of this Warrant in person, or by its attorney duly authorized in writing, on a register to be maintained by the Company at its principal office, upon the surrender and cancellation of this Warrant. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant of like tenor will be issued to the transferee in exchange for this Warrant. The address which is shown for any registered holder on such register may be used by the Company for the giving of notices and all other proper purposes. The Company may deem and treat the registered holder as the absolute owner of this Warrant for the purpose of receiving notices and all other proper purposes, and the Company will not be affected by any notice to the contrary. 6. The provisions of this Section 6 relate: to the period between the date of issuance of this Warrant and the later to occur of (i) the expiration of this Warrant (unexercised) or (ii) the passage of two years after the exercise of this Warrant; and to the Stock ("Underlying Stock") purchasable or purchased upon the exercise of this Warrant (the term "holder", when subsequently used in reference to Underlying Stock remaining purchasable at any given time, means the holder of this Warrant, and when used in reference to Underlying Stock theretofore purchased upon exercise of this Warrant, means the holder of such Underlying Stock). If the Company intends to file at any time during that period a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") with respect to an offering of any of its securities, which statement is on a form appropriate for registering an offering of Underlying Stock under the Act, then, subject to the provisions of Subsection 6.8, the following procedure will be observed. 6.1. The Company will give the holder written notice, at least thirty days in advance of the filing date, of its intention to file such registration statement. If the holder so elects, it may have the Underlying Stock (or the portion of this Warrant specified by the holder) included in the registration statement which the Company proposes to file, provided that the holder requests such inclusion in writing within two weeks after the date of the Company's aforementioned notice of intention to file. Any such request made by the holder must include: a description of the transaction proposed by the holder with respect to the Underlying Stock to which the request pertains; an undertaking by the holder to furnish to the Company such information as the Company or the Securities and Exchange Commission may require in connection with the registration sought by the holder; an agreement to cooperate in the Company's efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable; and confirmation of the holder's obligations described in Subsection 6.3. 16 6.2. After the filing of a registration statement including Underlying Stock, the Company will use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable. The Company will not be required to keep any such registration statement effective for more than nine months after its effective date. The Company will cooperate in reasonable efforts of the holder to have the Underlying Stock qualified for sale or other disposition under such blue sky or state securities laws as may be involved in the holder's aforementioned description of its proposed transaction, but the Company will not be required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any state. All of the costs and expenses of any such registration statement and of any such state qualification, other than those which would not be incurred if Underlying Stock were not being registered and qualified, will be borne by the Company, and it will be reimbursed by the holder for the extra costs and expenses attributable to the Underlying Stock. 6.3. To the extent reasonably requested by the Company or its underwriters, the holder will cooperate in efforts of such underwriters to maintain an orderly distribution of all securities (including the Underlying Stock) covered by such registration statement. In any event, the holder will cause any marketing of Underlying Stock covered by such registration statement to comply strictly with the Act, with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and with all rules and regulations promulgated under either of such Acts. The holder will indemnify the Company and each of its directors and officers against all liabilities to which it or any such director or officer may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, by reason of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement covering Underlying Stock at the request of the holder, or by reason of any omission or alleged omission to state in any such registration statement a material fact required to be stated tin this Warrant or necessary to make the statements tin this Warrant not misleading, but only if, and only to the extent that, such statement or omission was in reliance upon, in conformity with, and within the scope of the body of, written information furnished to the Company by the holder specifically for use in the preparation of such registration statement. 6.4. Conversely, the Company will indemnify the holder against all liabilities to which the holder may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, by reason of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement covering Underlying Stock, or by reason of any omission or alleged omission to state in any such registration statement a material fact required to be stated tin this Warrant or necessary to make the statements tin this Warrant not misleading, except to the extent that such statement or omission is the subject matter of indemnification afforded to the Company by the holder pursuant to Subsection 6.3. 6.5. For the purposes of Subsection 6.3, each person who may control the Company within the meaning of the Act will be deemed included in all references to it. For the purposes of Subsection 6.4, each person who may control the holder within the meaning of the Act will be deemed included in all references to the holder. Any reference in Subsections 6.3 and 6.4 to "liabilities" will be deemed to include losses, claims and damages, joint and several, and legal and other expense incurred by an indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage or liability or any action brought in regard thereto. Any reference made in Subsections 6.3 and 6.4 to a 17 "registration statement" will be deemed to relate to the applicable registration statement as finally amended at the time when it becomes effective, inclusive of the applicable prospectus as so amended, and to each post-effective amendment or supplement to such registration statement. 6.6. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action asserting liability on the part of such party, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect of this Warrant is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party in writing of such commencement (and omission so to notify the indemnifying party will relieve it from any liability under this Section, but not from any other liability which it may have to an indemnified party). If notice of such commencement is given as aforesaid, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in the action and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of this Warrant, with counsel satisfactory (in a reasonable exercise of judgment) to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume such defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with such defense, other than reasonable costs of investigation. No such indemnifying party will be liable to any such indemnified party on account of any settlement of any claim or action effected without the consent of the indemnifying party. 6.7. Any provision in this Warrant contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company will not be required to register any Underlying Stock which, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the holder and to the Company, may then be sold or otherwise disposed of in the manner contemplated by the holder without registration of this Warrant under the Act. If the counsel settled upon for the giving of any such opinion is other than the counsel initially proposed by the Company, the fees of such other counsel will be paid by the holder. 6.8. The Company's obligation to give notice of its intention to register securities under the Act, and the holder's right to include Underlying Stock in any such registration, will terminate and be of no further force or effect at such time as any shares of Underlying Stock have, pursuant to this Section 6, been included at the request of the holder in any registration statement which has become effective under the Act.
