has not experienced any change that has had or could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect on ECSI.
2.10 Litigation. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule or
incorporated by reference therein to the ECSI Commission Documents, there is no
legal, administrative, arbitration, or other proceeding, suit, claim or action
of any nature or investigation, review or audit of any kind, or any judgment,

to the ECSI Commission Documents. Except as disclosed in Disclosure Schedule and
other than the Derivative Securities the holders of which have executed and
delivered Waivers, none of ECSI Contracts contains a provision requiring the
consent of any party with respect to the consummation of the Transaction without
triggering a conversion price adjustment in any Derivative Security. ECSI is not
in breach, violation or default, however defined, in the performance of any of
its obligations under any ECSI Contract, and no facts and circumstances exist
which, whether with the giving of due notice, lapse of time, or both, would
constitute such breach, violation or default thereunder or thereof, and, to the

connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, nor is there any basis
known to ECSI for any such fee or commission to be claimed by any person or
entity.

finder's or other fee or commission in connection with the Transaction based
upon arrangements made by or on behalf of ECSI.

employee, stockholder, or affiliate of ECSI, on the other hand, including,

by or for any of such persons, that are effected with all corporate consents and
approvals necessary under controlling law, and currently in effect.

set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, the properties, business and operations of
ECSI are and have been in compliance in all respects with all Laws applicable to
ECSI's assets, properties, business and operations, except where the failure to
comply would not have a Material Adverse Effect. ECSI possesses all material
permits, licenses and other authorizations from all Authorities necessary to
permit it to operate its business in the manner in which it presently is
conducted and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement will not prevent ECSI from being able to continue to use such permits
and operating rights. ECSI has not received notice of any violation of any such
applicable Law, and is not in default with respect to any order, writ, judgment,
award, injunction or decree of any Authority, other than any such violation or
default that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

all of those books and records will be in the possession of ECSI.

warranty made by ECSI in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule, or in any
document, agreement or certificate furnished or to be furnished to HYUNDAI at
the Closing by or on behalf of ECSI in connection with the Transaction contains
or will contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit or will omit to
state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements herein or
therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made, and
all of the foregoing completely and correctly present the information required
or purported to be set forth herein or therein.
