REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO
CYBER
Cyber

and Qualification.
(a) Cyber
is
a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under
the
laws of the State of California and has the requisite corporate power and
authority to own, lease and operate its assets and properties and to carry
on
its business as it is now being or currently planned by Cyber to be conducted.
To its Knowledge, Cyber is in possession of all Approvals necessary to own,
lease and operate the properties it purports to own, operate or lease and to
carry on its business as it is now being or currently planned by Cyber to be
conducted, except where the failure to have such Approvals could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect on Cyber. Complete and correct copies of the Charter Documents
of
Cyber, as amended and currently in effect, have been heretofore delivered to
the
Company. Cyber is not in violation of any of the provisions of Cyber’s Charter
Documents. The ownership records of Cyber’s shares of capital stock are true,
complete and accurate records of the ownership of the shares as of the date
of
such records and contain all transfers of such shares since the time of the
Cyber's organization (“Cyber’s Share
Records”),
and
Cyber’s Share Records have been heretofore delivered to the Company. Cyber is
not required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any other
jurisdiction.
(b) Cyber
is
duly qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign corporation and is in
good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned,
leased or operated by it or the nature of its activities makes such
qualification or licensing necessary, except for such failures to be so duly
qualified or licensed and in good standing that could not, individually or
in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on
Cyber.
22
4.2 Subsidiaries. As
of the
date of this Agreement, Cyber has no Subsidiaries and does not own, directly
or
indirectly, any ownership, equity, profits or voting interest in any Person
and,
other than this Agreement, has no agreement or commitment to purchase any such
interest, and Cyber has not agreed and is not obligated to make nor is bound
by
any written, oral or other agreement, contract, subcontract, lease, binding
understanding, instrument, note, option, warranty, purchase order, license,
sublicense, insurance policy, benefit plan, commitment or undertaking of any
nature, as of the date hereof or as may hereafter be in effect under which
it
may become obligated to make, any future investment in or capital contribution
to any other entity.
4.3 Capitalization.
(a) The

be
required to have occurred subsequent to the Closing (“Stockholder

recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares
occurring after the Closing with respect to such Series A Preferred Stock);
(ii)
Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver to each of the Shareholders any of the
certificates representing the Shares then held by it; and (iii) Escrow Agent
shall deliver the signed resignations of all of the then current officers and
directors of Cyber together with a written consent action of all of the then
current directors appointing Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx as the sole director of Cyber.
Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event this Agreement is
rescinded and the transactions consummated hereunder are voided ab
initio,
the
Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, Cyber against (i) any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, actions, Liens and
deficiencies which exist, or which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against Cyber or any of its assets, based upon, resulting from or arising out
of, the management, operation and ownership of Cyber from and after the Closing
and through and including the effective date of the Rescission, and (ii) any
cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) incurred
by Cyber in connection with the foregoing (including, without limitation, any
cost or expense incurred by Cyber in enforcing its rights pursuant to this
Section 9.6). The parties hereto agree that the provisions of this Section
9.6
shall survive the Closing.

or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force
and
effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances
will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto.

unenforceable provision.

parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent

to
the first sentence of this Section 11.9, this Agreement shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns.
55
11.10 Arbitration.
Any
disputes or claims arising under or in connection with this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereunder shall be resolved by binding arbitration.
Notice of a demand to arbitrate a dispute by either party shall be given in
writing to the other at their last known address. Arbitration shall be commenced
by the filing by a party of an arbitration demand with the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”)
in its
office in Los Angeles, California USA. The arbitration and resolution of the
dispute shall be resolved by a single arbitrator appointed by the AAA pursuant
to AAA rules. The arbitration shall in all respects be governed and conducted
by
applicable AAA rules, and any award and/or decision shall be conclusive and
binding on the parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in Los Angeles,

award, and judgment may be entered on the award in any court of competent
jurisdiction. Each party shall pay its own fees and expenses for the
arbitration, except that any costs and charges imposed by the AAA and any fees
of the arbitrator for his services shall be assessed against the losing party
by
the arbitrator. In the event that preliminary or permanent injunctive relief
is
necessary or desirable in order to prevent a party from acting contrary to
this
Agreement or to prevent irreparable harm prior to a confirmation of an
arbitration award, then either party is authorized and entitled to commence
a
lawsuit solely to obtain equitable relief against the other pending the
completion of the arbitration in a court having jurisdiction over the parties.
All rights and remedies of the parties shall be cumulative and in addition
to
any other rights and remedies obtainable from arbitration.
