THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of
February __, 2004 by and between NuTech Digital, Inc., a California corporation
(the "Company"), and the purchaser whose name and address is set forth on the

RECITALS
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Subscription Application of Purchaser
dated February __, 2004 (the "Subscription Application"), an executed copy of
which is attached hereto as EXHIBIT A, the Company desires to sell to Purchaser
and Purchaser desires to purchase from the Company the number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock set forth on the signature page hereto (the "Common
Stock" or the "Shares") at a price of $0.40 per share, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and a warrant (the "Warrant" and collectively with
the Subscription Application, the "Transaction Documents") to purchase two
shares of the Company's Common Stock for every one Share purchased hereunder,
such Warrant providing for an exercise price of $0.75 per share pursuant to the
executed Warrant attached hereto as EXHIBIT B (the "Warrant Shares").
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
Section 1. Sale and Issuance of Common Stock.
1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company has
authorized the sale and issuance (the "Issuance") to Purchaser of the Common
Stock, subject to a maximum aggregate investment by all Purchasers of
$1,750,000. At the Closing (as defined in Section 2.1), the Company shall sell
to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from the Company (i) the Common Stock
at a purchase price of $0.40 per share and (ii) the Warrant Shares, subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Warrant and the other documents
or instruments contemplated hereby or thereby.
1.2 For a period of the later of June 30, 2004, or two months after an
effective registration statement has been filed pursuant to Section 5 hereof,
but in either case only for so long as the Purchaser shall hold the Shares, if
the closing price of the Company's common stock has on the OTCBB falls below
$0.40 per share for five consecutive trading days, or if said stock shall be
de-listed for any reason, the Company shall issue to Purchaser the number of
additional shares of common stock (the "Additional Shares") necessary to bring
the effective price per share equal to the Reset Price. The "Reset Price" shall
be the lowest average closing price during any such five consecutive trading day
period, provided, however, that the Reset Price shall never be less than $0.20
per share. The number of Additional Shares to be issued shall be calculated by
the following formula:
Additional Shares = ((Shares * $0.40)/Reset Price)-Shares
Section 2. The Closing.
2.1 The closing of the Issuance to Purchaser (the "Closing") shall take
place simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement at the
principal office of the Company.
2.2 At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser a stock
certificate representing the Common Stock duly executed by the Company and the
Warrant, against receipt by the Company of a wire transfer in an aggregate

Section 5. Registration Rights.
5.1 Registration Rights Granted. The Company hereby grants the following
registration rights to the Purchaser:
(a) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its
securities under the Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or
for the account of other security holders or both, except with respect to
registration statements on Forms X-0, X-0 or another form not available for
registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, provided the
Registrable Securities are not otherwise subject to an effective registration
statement, the Company will give the Purchaser written notice ("Notice of
Registration") to cause such Registrable Securities to be included with the
securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by
the Company. In the event that any registration pursuant to this Section 5.1(a)
shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of Common Stock
of the Company, the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in
such an underwriting may be reduced by the managing underwriter if and to the
extent that the Company and the underwriter shall reasonably be of the opinion
that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be
sold by the Company therein; provided, however, that the Company shall notify
the Purchaser in writing of any such reduction. "Registrable Securities" means
the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock set forth on the signature
page hereto, issuable upon exercise of the Warrant and issued as Additional
Shares.
(b) The Company shall file, or use its best efforts to file, a Form
SB-2 Registration Statement (or such other form that it is eligible to use) (a
"Registration Statement") in order to register the issuance of the Registrable
Securities to the Purchaser under the Securities Act with the SEC within sixty
days after the last closing (the "Filing Date"), and cause, or use its best
efforts to cause, such registration statement to be declared effective within
one hundred twenty days after the last Closing (the "Effective Date"). The
Company will include the number of shares of Common Stock in the aforedescribed
registration statement that is equal to the Shares, the Warrant Shares, and any
Additional Shares (calculated as of the date of filing).
(c) In the event that (i) the Company fails to file a Registration
Statement within 60 days after the last closing; or (ii) the Company fails to
respond to comments on the Registration Statement from the SEC within 30 days of
receipt; or (iii) the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the
SEC within 120 days of the last closing; or (iv) subject to customary blackout
periods, the Registration Statement does not remain effective and available for
use, the Company will pay Purchaser a cash payment equal to 1% of the Purchase
Price. If any of the foregoing shall continue for more than 30 days, the Company
will pay Purchaser a cash payment equal to another 1% of the Purchase Price. If
any of the foregoing delinquencies shall continue thereafter, the Company shall
pay Purchaser a cash payment equal to 2% of the Purchase Price per month
thereafter until the delinquency no longer continues, or one year after the last
closing, whichever is first.
6
(d) The Company agrees not to enter into any acquisition agreements
which, upon consummation, would require the filing of a Form 8-K with audited
financial statements (a "Material Acquisition") until the Registration Statement
is declared effective, or 180 days after the last closing, whichever is first.
The Company also agrees that, after the Registration Statement is declared
effective, it will not enter into an agreement for any Material Acquisition for
a period of at least 60 days unless the Registration Statement is on Form S-3.
5.2 Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by
the provisions hereof to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities
under the Act, the Company will:
(a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration
statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution
contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), and promptly provide to
the Purchaser copies of all filings and SEC letters of comment;
(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as
may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until the earlier
date of when: (i) all Registrable Securities have been sold or (ii) all
Registrable Securities may be sold immediately without registration under the
Securities Act and without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k), as
determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to
such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the
affected Holders (the "Effectiveness Period");
(c) furnish to the Purchaser such number of copies of the
registration statement and the prospectus included therein (including each
preliminary prospectus) as the Purchaser reasonably may request to facilitate
the public sale or disposition of the securities covered by such registration
statement;
(d) register or qualify the Purchaser's Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement under the securities or "blue sky" laws
of such jurisdictions as the Purchaser requests, provided, however, that the
Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to
transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not
so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction;
(e) list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company
is then listed;
5.3 Provision of Documents. In connection with the registration hereunder,
the Purchaser will furnish to the Company in writing such information and
representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by
it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal
and applicable state securities laws.
7
5.4 Expenses. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with
Section 5, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees,
printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public
accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel
fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or "blue sky"
laws, fees of the NASD, transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars,
fees of, and disbursements incurred by, and costs of insurance are called
"Registration Expenses". All underwriting discounts and selling commissions
applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees and
disbursements of any special counsel to the Purchaser beyond those included in
Registration Expenses, are called "Selling Expenses." The Company shall be
responsible for all Registration Expenses. All Selling Expenses in connection
with each registration statement shall be borne by Purchaser.
5.5 Indemnification.
(a) In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities
under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 5, the Company will indemnify and
hold harmless the Purchaser, and its officers, directors and each other person,
if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act,
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which
the Purchaser, or such persons may become subject under the Securities Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement
under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act
pursuant to Section 5, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based
upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and will reimburse the Purchaser, and each such person for any reasonable legal
or other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending
any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the
Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such
loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in
conformity with information furnished by the Purchaser or any such person in
writing specifically for use in any such document.
(b) In the event of a registration of the Registrable Securities
under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 5, the Purchaser will indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, and its officers, directors and each other person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against
all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the
Company or such persons may become subject under the Securities Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement
under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act
pursuant to Section 5, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based
upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and will reimburse the Company and each such person for any reasonable legal or
other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending
any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that the
Purchaser will be liable in any such case if and only to the extent that any
such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in
conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Purchaser
specifically for use in any such document.
8
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of
notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder,
notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify
the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have
to such indemnified party other than under this Section 5.5(c) and shall only
relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under
this Section 5.5(c) if and to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by
such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified
party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof,
the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it
shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel
satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying
party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified
party under this Section 5.5(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; if the
indemnified party retains its own counsel, then the indemnified party shall pay
all fees, costs and expenses of such counsel, provided, however, that, if the
defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from
or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests
of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests
of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties shall have the right to
select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to
participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees
of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be
reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the
event of joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either
(i) the Purchaser, or any controlling person of the Purchaser, makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.5 but it is judicially determined (by
the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and
the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that
such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact
that this Section 5.5 provides for indemnification in such case, contribution
under the Securities Act may be required on the part of the Purchaser or
controlling person of the Purchaser in circumstances for which indemnification
is provided under this Section 5.5; then, and in each such case, the Company and
the Purchaser will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or
liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in
such proportion so that the Purchaser is responsible only for the portion
represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities
offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all
securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in
any such case, (A) the Purchaser will not be required to contribute any amount
in excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it
pursuant to such registration statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Act)
will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation.
9
Section 6. Brokers and Finders.
The Company shall not be obligated to pay any commission, brokerage fee or
finder's fee based on any alleged agreement or understanding between Purchaser
and a third person in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser
hereby agrees to indemnify the Company against any claim by any third person for
any commission, brokerage or finder's fee or other payment with respect to this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby based on any alleged agreement
or understanding between Purchaser and such third person, whether express or
implied from the actions of Purchaser.
Section 7. Indemnification.
Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and defend (with counsel acceptable
to the Company) the Company and its officers, directors, employees and agents
and hold them harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, damage,
cost or expense, including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred on
account of or arising from:
(i) Any breach of or inaccuracy in Purchaser's representations, warranties
or agreements herein or in the Subscription Application; and
(ii) Any action, suit or proceeding based on a claim that any of
Purchaser's representations and warranties in the Subscription Application were
inaccurate or misleading, or otherwise cause for obtaining damages or redress
from the Company or any officer, director, employee or agent of the Company
under the Securities Act.

Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns.

supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among the parties with
respect thereto.

Section 12. Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.
All questions concerning the construction, interpretation and validity of
this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
with the domestic laws of California without giving effect to any choice or
conflict of law provision or rule (whether in the State of California or any
other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the State of California. In furtherance of the
foregoing, the internal law of the State of California will control the
interpretation and construction of this Agreement, even if under such
jurisdiction's choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of
some other jurisdiction would ordinarily or necessarily apply.
BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS
ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON
AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES),
THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH
APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF
THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY
RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENTS RELATED HERETO.
11
Section 13. Submission to Jurisdiction.
Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the other
Financing Documents may be brought in the courts of the State of California and
the United States of America located in the City of Los Angeles, California,
U.S.A. and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company hereby
accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and
unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Purchaser hereby
irrevocably waives, in connection with any such action or proceeding, any
objection, including, without limitation, any objection to the venue or based on
the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the
bringing of any such action or proceeding in such respective jurisdictions.
Purchaser hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the
aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies
thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to it at its address
as set forth herein.
Section 14. Severability.
It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this
Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the law and public
policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.
Accordingly, in the event that any provision of this Agreement would be held in
any jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason, such
provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating
the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be
invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining
provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such
provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 15. Independence of Agreements, Covenants,
Representations and Warranties.
All agreements and covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect
so that if a certain action or condition constitutes a default under a certain
agreement or covenant, the fact that such action or condition is permitted by
another agreement or covenant shall not affect the occurrence of such default,
unless expressly permitted under an exception to such covenant. In addition, all
representations and warranties hereunder shall be given independent effect so
that if a particular representation or warranty proves to be incorrect or is
breached, the fact that another representation or warranty concerning the same
or similar subject matter is correct or is not breached will not affect the
incorrectness of or a breach of a representation and warranty hereunder. The
exhibits and any schedules attached hereto are hereby made part of this
Agreement in all respects.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and each

but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement. Facsimile
counterpart signatures to this Agreement shall be acceptable and binding.

The section and paragraph headings contained in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.

connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the
Financing Documents.

separate and independent of legal counsel for any other party hereto; (ii) the
