2.7 Contracts. Seller has provided to Buyer a true, correct and complete
copy of all contracts, licenses, agreements, arrangements and/or commitments for
which Seller is bound pertaining to the Assets (the "Contracts"). Each of the
Contracts is valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms, is in full
force and effect, and neither Seller nor, to Seller's knowledge after due
inquiry, any other party is in default of any of its obligations under the
Contracts and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice, lapse of
time or both, could constitute such a default by Seller or, to Seller's
knowledge after due inquiry, any other party under the Contracts; Seller has not

has been made by Seller to the other parties to the Contracts except as
incorporated in the written Contracts; all representations made by Seller in the

2.8 Investor Status. Seller represents that each of the Seller and the
Nominees (i) is able to bear the economic risks of his or her investment in the
shares of Buyer's common stock included in the Purchase Price and to afford the
complete loss of the investment; and (ii) has a pre-existing personal or
business relationship with either the Buyer or any affiliate thereof of such
duration and nature as would enable a reasonably prudent investor to be aware of
the character, business acumen and general business and financial circumstances
of the Buyer or such affiliate, or by reason of his or her business or financial
experience or the business or financial experience of his or her professional
advisors who are unaffiliated with and who are not compensated by the Buyer or
any affiliate or selling agent of the Buyer, directly or indirectly, could be
reasonably assumed to have the capacity to protect his or her own interests in
connection with the investment, and is otherwise personally qualified to
evaluate and assess the risks, nature and other aspects of the investment.
Seller understands that the Purchase Price is being offered to him in reliance
upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States
federal and state securities laws and that Buyer is relying upon the truth and
accuracy of, and Seller's compliance with, the representations, warranties,
agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of Seller set forth herein in
order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of
Seller to receive the Purchase Price.
5
2.9 Investment Experience; Suitability. Seller is familiar with the type
of risks inherent in the acquisition of securities such as the shares of common
stock of Buyer and each of Seller's and the Nominee's financial position is such
that each can afford to retain the Purchase Price for an indefinite period of
time without realizing any direct or indirect cash return on his or her
investment.
2.10 Investment Purpose. Seller represents that the shares of Buyer's
common stock included in the Purchase Price are being issued to each of the
Seller and the Nominees for his or her own account, for investment purposes only
and not for distribution or resale to others in contravention of the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. Seller agrees that he will not
sell or otherwise transfer the shares of Buyer's common stock included in the
Purchase Price being issued to him unless such shares are registered under the
Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available.
2.11 Information. Seller and his advisors, if any, have been furnished
with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of Buyer
and materials relating to the offer and sale of the shares of Buyer's common
stock included in the Purchase Price which have been requested by Seller or his
advisors. Seller and his advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to
ask questions of the Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer has not
disclosed to Seller any material nonpublic information and will not disclose
such information unless such information is disclosed to the public prior to or
promptly following such disclosure to Seller. Neither such inquiries nor any
other due diligence investigation conducted by Seller or any of his advisors or
representatives shall modify, amend or affect Seller's right to rely on Buyer's
representations and warranties contained in Section 3 below. Seller understands
that his investment in the shares of Buyer's common stock included in the
Purchase Price involves a significant degree of risk. Seller represents that the
issuance of the shares of Buyer's common stock included in the Purchase Price is
not being accomplished by the publication of any advertisement.
2.12 Disclosure. The representations, warranties and statements contained
in this Agreement and in the certificates, exhibits and schedules delivered by
Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement do not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact, and, when taken together, do not omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make such
representations, warranties or statements not misleading in light of the
circumstances under which they were made. There are no facts known to Seller
which presently or may in the future have a material adverse effect (financial
or otherwise) on the Assets which have not been specifically disclosed herein or
in a schedule furnished herewith, other than general economic conditions
affecting the Assets generally.

9.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the exhibits hereto,
constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes and cancels any and all prior or contemporaneous
arrangements, understandings and agreements between them relating to the subject
matter hereof.
9.10 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated prior to
the Closing as follows:
(a) At the election of Seller or Buyer, on or after March 20, 2006,
if the Closing shall not have occurred by the close of business on such date,
provided that the terminating party is not in default of any of its obligations
hereunder;
(b) by mutual consent of Seller and Buyer; or
(c) by Seller or Buyer if there shall be in effect a final
nonappealable order of a governmental body of competent jurisdiction
restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby; it being agreed that the parties hereto shall
promptly appeal any adverse determination which is not nonappealable (and pursue
such appeal with reasonable diligence).
12
If this Agreement is terminated as provided herein each party shall deliver all
documents, work papers and other material of any other party relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby, whether so obtained before or after the
execution hereof, to the party furnishing the same. In the event this Agreement
is validly terminated as provided herein, then each of the parties shall be
relieved of their duties and obligations arising under this Agreement after the
date of such termination and such termination shall be without liability to
Seller or Buyer; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 9.10 shall
relieve Seller or Buyer of any liability for a breach of this Agreement.
9.11 Severability. In the event that any provision or any portion of any
provision of this Agreement shall be held to be void or unenforceable, then the
remaining provisions of this Agreement (and the remaining portion of any
provision held to be void or unenforceable in part only) shall continue in full
force and effect.
9.12 Governing Law. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be governed and construed by and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of laws principles.
9.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall
constitute the same instrument.
9.14 Expenses. Each party shall pay its own expenses incident to the
negotiation, preparation and performance of this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby, including all fees and expenses of its counsel and
accountants for all activities of such counsel and accountants undertaken
pursuant to this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated.
9.15 Remedies. It is specifically understood and agreed that certain
breaches of this Agreement will result in irreparable injury to the parties
hereto, that the remedies available to the parties at law alone will be an
inadequate remedy for such breach, and that, in addition to any other legal or
equitable remedies that the parties may have, a party may enforce its rights by
an action for specific performance and the parties expressly waive the defense
that a remedy in damages will be adequate.
9.16 Dispute Resolution. Except as provided below, the parties agree to
submit disputes between them relating to this Agreement and its formation,
breach, performance, interpretation and application to arbitration as follows:
Each party will provide written notice to the other party of any dispute within
one year of the date when the dispute first arises or occurs. If a party fails
to provide such notice, recovery on the dispute will be barred. Arbitration will
be conducted in Los Angeles County, California pursuant to the Rules of the
American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified herein. The arbitration
shall be conducted by one (1) arbitrator chosen in accordance with the rules of
the AAA. Unless the arbitrator finds that exceptional circumstances require
otherwise, the arbitrator will grant the prevailing party in arbitration its
costs of arbitration and reasonable attorneys' fees as part of the arbitration
award. Neither party will be required to arbitrate any dispute relating to
actual or threatened violation of Intellectual Property rights. Either party
will be entitled to receive in any court of competent jurisdiction injunctive,
preliminary or other equitable relief, in addition to damages, including court
costs and fees of attorneys and other professionals, to remedy any actual or
threatened violation of its rights with respect to which arbitration is not
required hereunder.
13
9.17 Third Party Rights. Except as regards to the indemnification rights
and obligations herein, this Agreement is for the benefit of the parties hereto
and is not entered into for the benefit of, and shall not be construed to confer
any benefit upon, any other party or entity.
9.18 Representation by Counsel. Each of the parties hereto represents,
warrants and covenants that it has had ample opportunity to consider entering
into this Agreement and has had an opportunity to consult with counsel regarding
this Agreement prior to executing the same. The parties further agree that any
rule that provides that an ambiguity within a document will be interpreted
against the party drafting such document shall not apply.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Seller and Buyer have caused this Asset Purchase
Agreement to be executed as of the date first above written.
