Attention: ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, President
Gentlemen:
1. Reference is made to the letter agreement between AMRE, Inc. ("AMRE")
and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ("▇▇▇▇▇"), dated June 17, 1994 (the "LETTER AGREEMENT"), the
Plan of Compensation and Indemnification Agreement entered into by such parties
as of August 1, 1994 (the "COMPENSATION PLAN"), the reinstatement letter
between the parties dated September 12, 1995 (the "REINSTATEMENT LETTER") and
all amendments thereto.
2. Pursuant to paragraph 6 of the Letter Agreement, AMRE's right to
consummate the Strategy (as defined in the Letter Agreement) expired on June
17, 1995. Such right was reinstated pursuant to the Reinstatement Letter
through October 15, 1995, which was terminated due to a failure of condition on
or about September 27, 1995. At AMRE's request, ▇▇▇▇▇ hereby again reinstates
AMRE's right to consummate the Strategy as of the date hereof through November
15, 1995 (the "REINSTATEMENT PERIOD"); on condition and in consideration of the
following actions and undertakings by AMRE as set forth herein:
3. The Board of Directors of AMRE shall or shall cause AMRE to: (a) on
or before November 15, 1995 increase the size of the AMRE Board of Directors by
one seat and shall appoint ▇▇▇▇▇ to fill such new director's seat for an
interim term commencing on the earlier of (i) November 15, 1995 and (ii)
immediately prior to the next AMRE Board of Directors meeting, and running
until the general election of directors at the next meeting held for the
purpose of such election; (b) prior to the next such meeting, the AMRE Board of
Directors shall nominate ▇▇▇▇▇ as a member of the directors' slate for a
subsequent one year term as director and the AMRE Board of Directors will vote
all shares of Common Stock which they have the right to so vote as a body (if
any) at such meeting in favor of ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ election to such one year term; (c)
during his term as a director of AMRE, AMRE shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇ the same
compensation and benefits, including without limitation director and officer
insurance, available to other AMRE outside directors; (d) promptly upon notice
from ▇▇▇▇▇ of the identity of the parties thereof, execute and deliver a Stock
Purchase Agreement in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A; (e) on or before
November 15, 1995 deliver to ▇▇▇▇▇ 200,000 shares of AMRE common stock (the

deliver the Stock Option Agreement in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B; (g)
simultaneously with the execution hereof execute and deliver the Stock Option
Agreement in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C; and (h) promptly pay to
▇▇▇▇▇ $900,000 in cash if ▇▇▇▇▇ does not receive such cash payment from HFS
Incorporated on or before November 15, 1995; and (i) on or before November 15,
1995 AMRE shall execute and deliver a sub-license agreement between AMRE and
Garden State Exterior Remodeling, Inc., reasonably satisfactory to the parties
and containing the material terms set forth in the term sheet annexed hereto as
Exhibit D. The ▇▇▇▇▇ Shares shall have registration rights as a separate block
of registerable securities, not contingent on any conversion of the HFS Senior
Convertible Preferred Stock, identical to the registration rights set forth in
paragraph 10 of that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date
hereof, between AMRE and HFS Incorporated, except that the demand and
incidental registration rights shall be exercisable for five years from the
date hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all payments and
other obligations in favor of ▇▇▇▇▇ set forth in (a) - (i) above shall be
deemed to have been earned and ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ rights thereto established irrevocably
as of the execution of the License Agreement between AMRE and an affiliate of
HFS Incorporated and shall be payable as described above.
4. If AMRE does not consummate the Strategy, execute and deliver the
aforementioned documents and perform the foregoing actions, and if ▇▇▇▇▇ does
not receive such $900,000 in accordance with and within the time frames set
forth in the foregoing paragraph during the Reinstatement Period, AMRE shall
immediately return to ▇▇▇▇▇ all information furnished to AMRE with respect to
the Strategy and shall not implement and/or use any part of the Strategy until
June 17, 1999.
5. By granting this reinstatement, ▇▇▇▇▇ is in no way agreeing,
representing or implying that he will grant any further reinstatement or
extension in the future. The decision to grant or withhold any such future
reinstatements or extensions shall be within ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ absolute discretion.
6. Each of paragraph 3 of the Letter Agreement and paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4,
5 and 6 of the Compensation Plan is hereby terminated in its entirety and shall
be of no further force or effect. ▇▇▇▇▇ hereby irrevocably releases and
forever discharges AMRE, its officers, directors, agents, representatives and
affiliates of and from any and all claims, actions, demands, lawsuits, causes
of action, losses, costs or liability of whatever kind or nature, now existing
or which may hereafter accrue, whether known or unknown, that have been or
might be asserted, whether or not heretofore asserted, arising from paragraph 3
of the Letter Agreement and paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 of the Compensation
Plan.
7. Other than as expressly provided herein, this Agreement does not
supersede the Letter Agreement, the Compensation Plan, the Reinstatement
Letter, the Agreement of Consent, Waiver and Release, dated December 5, 1994
between ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and AMRE, or the Second Agreement of Consent, Waiver and
Release dated December 28, 1994, between ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

and AMRE, or any amendments thereto all of which, except as specifically
modified hereby, remain in full force and effect as described therein.
8. AMRE has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into
this Agreement and the Agreements annexed hereto and the actions contemplated
thereby. This Agreement and the Exhibits annexed hereto and the actions
contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary
corporate action on the part of AMRE, and with respect to the documents being
executed and delivered simultaneously herewith, such documents have been duly
executed and delivered by AMRE and constitute legal, valid and binding
agreements of AMRE, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and,
with respect to the documents to be executed hereafter, such documents shall,
upon execution and delivery by a duly authorized officer of AMRE, constitute
legal, valid and binding agreements of AMRE, enforceable in accordance with
their respective terms.

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
THIS STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT is made as of the 17th day of October,
1995, between AMRE, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), and ▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇, an individual resident of New York, New York (the "OPTIONEE").
The Company wishes to grant to the Optionee an option to purchase
shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to the Plan of Compensation and
Indemnification Agreement dated as of August 1, 1994 (as amended to date),
between the Company and the Optionee, and the Optionee wishes to accept the
Option (as defined below). Therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants
herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ AND EXERCISE OF OPTION
1.1 GRANT OF OPTION. The Company grants to the Optionee an option
(the "OPTION") to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of Common Stock,
$0.01 par value, of the Company (the "SHARES"), at a price of $5.50 per share
(the "EXERCISE PRICE"), subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth. The Option is a non-qualified option and is not intended to constitute
an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Option shall be irrevocable.
1.2 VESTING OF OPTION. All or any part of the Shares may be
purchased at any time or times during the term of the Option.
1.3 TERM OF OPTION. The term of the Option is five years from
the date hereof.
1.4 EXERCISE OF OPTION. The Option may be exercised by giving
written notice to the Company, addressed to its corporate headquarters,
attention of the Secretary, specifying the number of Shares to be purchased,
accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price, either in cash or by
check, bank draft or money order; provided, however, that in lieu of cash the
Optionee may exercise the Option by instructing the Company to withhold from
the Shares otherwise issuable upon the exercise of the Option that number of
Shares having a fair market value equal to the cash Exercise Price of the
Shares being purchased. For this purpose, the per share value of the Shares
shall be the fair market value on the date of exercise (or, if the date of
exercise is not a trading date, on the first trading date immediately preceding
the date of exercise), which shall be the average of the highest and lowest
sales prices of shares of common stock of the Company on the New York Stock
Exchange (or, if the shares of common stock of the Company are not listed on
the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., on the principal national stock exchange or,
if not so listed, on the quotation service on which such shares are listed) as
reported in The Wall Street Journal--Southwest Edition, on such date.
18
1.5 RESTRICTIONS ON EXERCISE. Any exercise of the Option by the
Optionee is subject to the representation by the Optionee that he is acquiring
the Shares solely for his own account for investment and not with a view to, or
for offer or sale in connection with, the distribution of all or any part of
the Shares within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"ACT"), and it is understood that a legend to the following effect will be
placed on any certificates representing the Shares:
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD
OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL
SUCH SHARES ARE REGISTERED UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IS
OBTAINED SATISFACTORY TO AMRE, INC. TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
The Optionee understands and agrees that the Shares may not be sold, pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise transferred unless they are registered under the Act
and applicable state securities laws or an opinion of counsel is obtained
satisfactory to the Company to the effect that said registration is not
required. The Optionee further understands that stop transfer instructions
will be placed with the Transfer Agent of the Shares so as to restrict resale,
pledge, hypothecation or other transfer thereof subject to the provisions
hereof, including the provisions of the legend referred to above. The Optionee
understands and agrees that he shall have no registration rights of any kind or
character with respect to the Shares.
1.6 LIMITATIONS ON EXERCISE. The provisions of Paragraph 3.1
hereof notwithstanding, the Option shall not be exercisable following
expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in Paragraph 1.3 hereof.
ARTICLE II. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS
The Company represents, warrants and agrees as follows:
2.1 The Shares to be issued under the Option will be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will be free of any liens and
encumbrances. The Shares subject to the Option are not subject to any
pre-emptive rights.
2.2 Upon the occurrence of any event requiring an adjustment
pursuant to Section 3.3 hereto, the Company shall give written notice to
Optionee of any adjustment thereunder and shall set forth the calculations and
basis therefor. Optionee shall have ten days within receipt of such notice to
object to the proposed adjustment. In the event Optionee objects to such
adjustment, the dispute shall be resolved by an independent accountant mutually
agreed to, and whose expenses shall be shared equally by, the Company and
Optionee.
2.3 Within 60 days of the date hereof, Company shall file a
listing application for the Shares with the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.
2
19
2.4 Optionee shall be entitled to registration rights with respect
to the Shares, as a separate block of registerable securities not contingent on
the conversion of the HFS Senior Convertible Preferred Stock, to the same
extent as set forth in Section 10 of that certain Stock Purchase Agreement,
dated as of the date hereof, between the Company and HFS Incorporated, except
that the demand and incidental registration rights shall be exercisable for
five years from the date hereof and that Optionee shall pay all expenses of any
such registration applicable to the Shares, but not the fees and expenses of
Company counsel or auditors.
ARTICLE III. MISCELLANEOUS
3.1 DEATH. In the event of the death of the Optionee, the
personal representatives, heirs, legatees or distributees of the Optionee, as
appropriate, shall have the right at any time or times during the term of the
Option to exercise the Option to the extent that the Option had not been
exercised.
3.2 NONTRANSFERABILITY OF OPTION. The Option shall not be
transferable by the Optionee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution or a transfer to the Optionee's immediate family or a transfer
with the prior consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. During the lifetime of the Optionee, the Option shall be exercisable
only by the Optionee. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge,
hypothecation or other disposition of the option, or the levy of an execution,
attachment or similar process upon the Option, shall be null and void and
without effect.
3.3 CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. In the event that the number of
shares of common stock of the Company shall be changed by reason of stock
splits, combinations of shares, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations or
stock dividends, the number of Shares then subject to the Option shall be
proportionately adjusted so as to reflect such change; and, in such event, the
Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased or decreased, as the case may
be, all to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of the Optionee. No
adjustment provided for in this Paragraph 3.3 shall require the issuance of any
fractional shares.
