following paragraphs of this Section 3 are all true and correct:
3.1. Organization and Standing. The Company is a corporation duly organized
and validly existing under, and by virtue of, the laws of the State of
California and is in good standing under such laws. The Company has all
corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to
conduct its business as currently conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The
Company is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in each
jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business requires such qualification

its financial condition, business or operations. The Company has furnished the
Investors with true, correct and complete copies of its Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws.
3.2. Capitalization. Immediately prior to the First Closing (and after the
filing of the Restated Articles with the California Secretary of State), the
authorized capital stock of the Company will consist of (i) Forty-eight Million
Five Hundred Thousand (48,500,000) shares of Common Stock, of which Six Million

Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand (11,500,000) shares of Preferred Stock, all

Million Two Hundred Thousand (11,200,000) of which shares will be sold to the
Investors pursuant to this Agreement. The Company has reserved Eleven Million
Two Hundred Thousand (11,200,000) shares of its Common Stock for possible

Secretary of State, except for (i) the conversion privileges of the Shares, (ii)
the rights provided in Sections 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6 of the Investors' Rights
Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the "Investors' Rights
Agreement"), and (iii) the 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for

agreements with respect to the issuance thereof, presently outstanding to
purchase any of the capital stock of the Company. All shares are duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and have been issued by
the Company in compliance with the registration requirements of securities laws.
Apart from the exceptions noted in this Paragraph 3.2, no shares of the
Company's outstanding capital stock, or stock issuable upon exercise or exchange
of any outstanding options or other stock issuable by the Company, are subject
to any rights of first refusal or other rights to purchase such stock (whether
in favor of the Company or any other person), pursuant to any agreement or
commitment of the Company. Attached to this Agreement as Exhibit E is a complete
list of all outstanding shareholders, option holders and other security holders
of the Company as of immediately prior to the First Closing (and after the

shareholder has granted a third party an option or other right to purchase the
shares held by such shareholder.
3.3. Subsidiaries. The Company has no subsidiaries and does not presently
own or control, directly or indirectly, any interest in any other corporation,
partnership, trust, joint venture, association, or other entity.

Closing. This Agreement and the Investor Rights' Agreement are valid and binding
obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with
their terms, subject, as to enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium, reorganization and similar laws affecting creditors'
rights generally and to general equitable principles. The Shares are not subject
to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal pursuant to any agreement or
commitment of the Company. To the Company's knowledge, the execution, delivery
and performance by the Company of this Agreement and compliance herewith and the
sale and issuance of the Shares and Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Shares will not result in any violation of and will not conflict with, or result
in a breach of any of the terms of, or constitute a default under, any provision
of state or federal law to which the Company is subject, the Company's Articles
of Incorporation or Bylaws, each as amended, or any provision of any mortgage,
indenture, agreement, instrument, judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation or
other restriction to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound, the
breach of or default under which would have a material adverse effect upon the
business or operations of the Company, or result in the creation of any
mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or
assets of the Company pursuant to any such term; provided, however, that the
Shares (and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof) may be subject to
restrictions on transfer under state and/or federal securities laws. The shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares have been duly and
validly reserved and are not subject
3
5
to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal and, upon issuance, will be
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

and the Shares, when issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement for the consideration provided for herein, will be duly and
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and will be free of any liens or
encumbrances created by the Company. The Conversion Shares have been duly and
validly reserved for issuance and are not subject to any preemptive rights or
rights of first refusals, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the
Restated Articles, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
3.6. Liabilities. The Company has no indebtedness for borrowed money that
the Company has directly or indirectly created, incurred, assumed, or
guaranteed, or with respect to which the Company has otherwise become directly
or indirectly liable. The Company has no obligations or liabilities of any kind
whatsoever.

title to its properties and assets held in each case subject to no mortgage,
pledge, lien, encumbrance, security interest or charge of any kind, except such
mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance, security interest or charge that arises in
the ordinary course of business and does not materially impair the Company's
ownership or use of such property. With respect to the property and assets it
leases, the Company is in compliance with such leases and, to the Company's
knowledge, the Company holds valid leasehold interests in such assets free of
any liens, encumbrances, security interests or claims of any party other than
the lessors of such property and assets.

conducted any special investigation or patent search), the Company has
sufficient title, license and/or ownership of all patents, trademarks, service
marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, information, proprietary rights
and processes necessary for its business as now conducted without any conflict
with or infringement of the rights of others. Except for the agreements with its
own employees or consultants referenced in paragraph 3.9 and licensing
agreements entered into by the Company in the ordinary course of its business,
there are no outstanding options, licenses, or agreements of the Company
relating to the foregoing, and the Company is not a party or bound by any
options, licenses or agreements with respect to the patents, trademarks, service
marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses, information,
proprietary rights and processes of any other person or entity. Neither the
Company nor any of its employees has received any communications alleging that
the Company has violated or, by conducting its business as proposed, would
violate any of the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights
or trade secrets or other proprietary rights of any other person or entity. The
Company warrants that to its actual knowledge no employee of the Company is
obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of
any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of
any court or administrative agency, that would conflict with his obligation to
use his best efforts to promote the interests of the Company or that would
conflict with the Company's business. Reasonable security measures have been
taken to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of the proprietary
information referred to in this Section 3.8.

which it is bound that are (i) material to the conduct and operations of its
business and properties; (ii) involve any of the officers, consultants,
directors, employees or shareholders of the Company; or (iii) obligate the

Closing a "Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement" concerning
nondisclosure of confidential information and assignment of inventions to the

indebtedness, liability or other obligation having an aggregate value, cost or
amount in excess of $10,000.
3.10. Litigation. There are no actions, proceedings or investigations
pending or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened, against or affecting the
Company or its property, that, either in any case or in the aggregate, might
result in any material adverse change in the business, prospects, condition,
affairs or operations of the Company or in any of its properties or assets, in
any material impairment of the right or ability of the Company to carry on its
business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, or in any change in
the current equity ownership of the Company, and none that questions the
validity of this Agreement or any action taken or to be taken in connection
herewith.

breach or default of any term of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws or, in
any material respect, of any term or provision of any mortgage, indenture,
contract, agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it
may be bound, or of any provision of any foreign or domestic state or federal
judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable and material to
the Company. The execution, delivery and performance of, and compliance with,
this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will
not result in any such violation or default, or be in conflict with or

5
7
giving of notice or both, (i) a default under the Company's Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws, or under any agreement or contract of the Company, (ii)
to the Company's knowledge, a violation of any statutes, laws, regulations or
orders, or (iii) an event which results in the creation of any lien, charge or
encumbrance upon any asset of the Company.
3.14. Disclosure. No representation or warranty by the Company in this
Agreement or in any written statement or certificate signed by the President of
the Company furnished pursuant to this Agreement contains or will contain any
untrue statement of a material fact which would cause the statements made herein

Company believes in good faith that the assumptions made by the Company in
preparing the business plan and any financial projections previously provided to
the Investors were reasonable when made.
3.15. Registration Rights. Except as provided in the Investors' Rights

Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), to be treated as a Subchapter S
corporation or collapsible corporation pursuant to Section 1362(a) or Section

(other than elections which relate solely to matters of accounting, depreciation
or amortization) which would have a material affect on the Company, its
financial condition, its business as presently conducted or presently proposed
to be conducted or any of its properties or material assets.
3.18. Shareholders, Directors and Officers. To the Company's knowledge,
none of the officers or directors or significant employees or consultants of the

knowledge, the Company has good and marketable title to its properties and
assets and has good title to all its leasehold interests, in each case subject
to no mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, conditional sale agreement,
encumbrance or charge, except (i) tax, materialmen's or like liens for
obligations not yet due or payable or being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings, or (ii) possible minor liens or encumbrances which do
not in any case materially detract from the value of the property subject
thereto or materially impair the operations of the Company and which have not
arisen otherwise then in the ordinary course of business.

3.20. Employees. To the Company's knowledge, no employee of the Company is
in violation of any term of any employment contract, patent disclosure
agreement, non-competition agreement, or any restrictive covenant to a former
employer relating to the right of any such employee to be employed by the
Company because of the nature of the business conducted or presently proposed to
be conducted by the Company or to the use of trade secrets or proprietary
information of others. There is neither pending nor, to the Company's knowledge,
threatened any actions, suits, proceedings or claims, or to its knowledge any
basis therefor or threat thereof with respect to any contract, agreement,
covenant or obligations referred to in the preceding sentence. The Company does
not have any collective bargaining agreement covering any of its employees. No
