Section 3. Representations and Warranties. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holder as follows:

(a) The Company has been duly formed, is validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation, is in good standing or duly qualified as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions where the conduct of its business so requires and where the failure to so qualify could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Note and all other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. Each of this Note and all other Transaction Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitute its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Note and all other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the incurrence by it of obligations hereunder and thereunder, do not (i) contravene or conflict with the Company’s certificate of formation, operating agreement or similar governing documents or any law applicable to the Company or other instrument binding on or otherwise affecting the Company, or (ii) give rise to any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance (other than in favor of the Holder) upon any of the Company’s properties. No consent or approval of or notice to or filing with any governmental authority or other third party is or will be required on the part of the Company as a condition to the validity or enforceability of this Note or the other Transaction Documents, other than such consents which have been obtained and are in full force and effect, true and complete copies of which have been previously provided to the Holder.

(b) The Company is in compliance in all material respects with all laws and regulatory requirements to which it or its properties are subject. There is no litigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company. The Company’s principal place of business is at the address set forth at the beginning of this Note. The Company has paid all federal, foreign, state and local taxes required to be paid by it on or prior to the date they were due. All documents, instruments and other written material heretofore or hereafter furnished to the Holder pursuant to the terms of any Transaction Document contain no misstatements of a material fact and do not fail to disclose any material fact and the Company has not failed to disclose to the Holder any material information.

(c) All financial statements of the Company delivered to Holder, if any, fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments. None of such financial reports, as of their date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

If notice prior to disposition of the Collateral or any portion thereof is necessary under applicable law, written notice mailed to the Debtor at its notice address specified in the Red Xxxxx Note ten (10) days prior to the date of such disposition shall constitute commercially reasonable notice, but notice given in any other reasonable manner shall be sufficient. Without precluding any other methods of sale or other disposition, the sale or other disposition of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall have been made in a commercially reasonable manner if conducted in conformity with commercial practices of creditors disposing of similar property; but in any event the Secured Party may sell, lease, deliver, grant options to purchase or otherwise retain, liquidate or dispose such Collateral on such terms and to such purchaser(s) (including the Secured Party) as the Secured Party in its absolute discretion may choose, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery, without assuming any credit risk, at public or private sale or other disposition, without demand of performance, and without any obligation to advertise or give notice of any kind other than that necessary under applicable law. The Debtor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale or other disposition hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale or other disposition, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Secured Party may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. The Secured Party shall not be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall it be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto.

-22-

The Secured Party shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to this Agreement. The Debtor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

The Debtor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Secured Party may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the relevant Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Debtor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Secured Party than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Secured Party shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to enable the registration of the Collateral or related transaction so as to permit a public offer to be made with respect thereto;

(e) license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any Intellectual Property included in the Collateral throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions and in such manner as the Secured Party shall in its sole discretion determine;

(f) without assuming any obligation or liability thereunder, at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, enforce (and shall have the exclusive right to enforce) against any licensee or sublicensee all rights and remedies of the Debtor in, to and under any of its Intellectual Property and take or refrain from taking any action under any thereof, and the Debtor releases the Secured Party from liability for, and agrees to hold the Secured Party free and harmless from and against any claims and expenses arising out of, any lawful action so taken or omitted to be taken with respect thereto;

(g) make a request upon the Debtor (which shall not be construed as implying any limitation on the rights or powers of the Secured Party), and upon such request the Debtor shall, execute and deliver to the Secured Party a power of attorney, in form and substance satisfactory to the Secured Party, for the implementation of any sale, lease, license or other disposition of Intellectual Property owned by the Debtor or any such action related thereto. In connection with any such disposition, the Debtor will supply to the Secured Party its know-how and expertise relating to the relevant Intellectual Property, and its customer lists and other records relating to such Intellectual Property and to the distribution of said products or services;

(h) to the extent not already so transferred, transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Secured Party's names or the name of their nominee or nominees; and

(i) give all consents, waivers, and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (the Debtor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Secured Party the proxy and attorney-in-fact of the Debtor, with full power of substitution to do so, which power is coupled with an interest), including, without limitation, the exercise of all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral.

16. Secured Party Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted to the Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement, applicable law or otherwise, the Debtor hereby appoints the Secured Party as its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of the Debtor and in the name of the Debtor or otherwise, from time to time in the Secured Party's discretion to take any and all action and to execute, file and record any and all instruments, agreements, and documents which the Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to execute any assignment of Intellectual Property to the Secured Party or other transferee, and to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made or payable to the Debtor representing any Collateral or Proceeds in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. The appointment set forth in this Section 16 is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

-23-

17. Secured Party May Perform. If the Debtor fails to perform any agreement, covenant, or obligation contained herein, the Secured Party may itself perform, or cause performance of such agreement, covenant or obligation and the expenses and costs of the Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Debtor.

18. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Secured Party and all Liens hereunder, and all obligations of the Debtor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a)

lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the Red Xxxxx Note or any other Transaction Document;

(b) any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of, or in any other term of any or all of the Obligations or any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Red Xxxxx Note or any other Transaction Document;

(c) any release or non-perfection of any portion of the Collateral or any exchange, release, or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release, amendment, or waiver of any guaranty for all or any of the Obligations; or

(d) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of the Debtor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement or the Red Xxxxx Note or any other Transaction Document.

19. Secured Party's Duties. The powers conferred to the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Party's interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers except for the safe custody of any Collateral or any portion thereof in its possession, and the Secured Party shall exercise that standard of care with respect to the Collateral in its possession which it exercises in the administration of its own assets and property; provided, however, that the Secured Party shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted with respect to the Collateral or this Agreement unless such liability results solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Secured Party shall have no duty as to the Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against other parties pertaining to the Collateral.

20. Rights Cumulative. The rights, powers, and remedies of the Secured Party under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers, and remedies given to the Secured Party by virtue of any statute or rule of law or any agreement, all of which rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without impairing the Secured Party's security interest, Lien, and assignment in the Collateral.

21. Indemnity and Expenses.

(a) The Secured Party shall not have any liability to any Person and shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Debtor for any liability incurred by reason of taking or refraining from taking any action with respect to the Collateral, except in the case such liability results solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Debtor agrees to indemnify the Secured Party from and against any and all claims, losses, and liabilities arising out of or connected with this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except such claims, losses, or liabilities resulting solely from the Secured Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 21(a) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

-24-

(b) The Debtor agrees to pay all expenses, costs, and disbursements incurred by the Secured Party (including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees and other legal expenses incurred by the Secured Party in connection therewith) in connection with (i) retaking, holding, collecting, preparing for sale, and selling or otherwise realizing upon, liquidating, or disposing of the Collateral, (ii) the enforcement of its rights hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (iii) the performance by the Secured Party of any agreement, covenant, or obligation of the Debtor contained herein that the Debtor has failed or refused to perform, and (iv) the participation or other involvement of the Secured Party with (x) bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up, or liquidation proceedings, or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise, or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral, and for the care of the Collateral and defending or asserting rights and claims of the Secured Party in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise, including expenses of insurance, (y) judicial or regulatory proceedings, and (z) workout, restructuring, or other negotiations or proceedings (whether or not the workout, restructuring or transaction contemplated thereby is consummated).

22. Amendment or Waiver. Neither this Agreement nor any terms hereof may be changed, waived, discharged, or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the parties hereto.

23. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and mailed or delivered to the Debtor or the Secured Party at the respective addresses specified in the Red Xxxxx Note; or at such other address as shall be designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and communications shall, when mailed, be effective three business days after deposit in the mails and shall, when delivered, be effective upon delivery of such notice.

24. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Secured Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the UCC or any other applicable law shall operate as a waiver hereof or thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege hereunder or under the UCC or any other applicable law preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on the Secured Party in any case shall entitle the Debtor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Secured Party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

25. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of that prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction.

26. Non-Assignment. The Debtor shall not have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations hereunder or any part thereof to any other person without the Secured Party's prior written consent. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Debtor, and shall benefit any successors or assigns of the Secured Party.

27. Integration of Terms. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings with respect thereto.

28. Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law of the State of California without regard to choice of law principles thereof that would cause the laws of any other jurisdiction to apply.

29. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

-25-

30. Joint and Several Liability. Each of Holdings, Chalk Dust and Xxx Xxxxx acknowledge that each of the undersigned are parties to this Agreement as the "Debtor" as joint and several grantors hereunder. Any references in this Agreement to the "Debtor" shall refer to any of Holdings, Chalk Dust or Xxx Xxxxx, or both such Persons as the context may require.
