from Louis Goldstein at $1.85 per share for a total purchase price of
$1,775,998.15. The purchase price was made available to HAH Holdings in the form
of a loan from LJB. Such funds were made available to LJB by American National
Bank and Trust Company of Chicago ("Lender") in the form of a $2,000,000
unsecured loan that will mature on February 28, 2001, and bears interest at 1%
per annum in excess of the Lender's prime rate (the "Loan"). The Loan is
personally guaranteed by Lloyd J. Baretz. HAH Holdings may assume LJB's
obligations for the $2,000,000 unsecured loan.

share for a total purchase price of $132,241. The purchase price was made

impede the acquisition of control of Help at Home by any person other than HAH
Holdings, (iii) changes in Help at Home's corporate or business structure,
including, but not limited to, liquidation or reorganization, (iv) a sale or
transfer of a material amount of assets of Help at Home or of any of Help At
