2.1
Purchase and Sale of Membership Interests.

 
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, simultaneously with
the execution of this Agreement by all Parties hereto, each of the Members
hereby conveys, transfers, assigns and delivers to the Purchaser, and Purchaser
hereby acquires from each of the Members, good and valid title, free and clear
of all Encumbrances, to the Membership Interests, as set forth opposite each of
the Members names on Schedule A.

(b) Purchaser hereby purchases the Membership Interests from the Members for an
aggregate purchase price of $3,150,000 (“Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price
shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with the percentage holding
of Membership Interests held by each of the Members, as set forth opposite each
of the Members names on Schedule A (the “Pro Rata Distribution”). The Purchase
Price shall be payable in the form of shares of common stock of Purchaser (the
“Purchase Price Shares”) issued in the names of the Members in accordance with
the Pro Rata Distribution, in the amounts and as of the dates set forth below
(each, a “Payment Date”):

(i) One-third of the Purchase Price Shares shall be issued simultaneously with
the execution of this Agreement by all Parties hereto (“Closing Purchase Price
Shares”);

(ii) One-third of the Purchase Price Shares shall be issued on the three-month
anniversary of the Closing Date; and

anniversary of the Closing Date.

(c) The Purchase Price Shares shall be subject to the Lock-Up Agreement.

(d) The number of Purchase Price Shares issued on a particular Payment Date
shall be calculated by dividing one third of the Purchase Price by the average
closing trading price of a share of Purchaser’s common stock for the five
trading days immediately prior to such Payment Date (the “Purchase Price Per
Share Denominator”); provided that, each of the Members acknowledges and agrees,
in no event shall the Purchase Price Per Share Denominator be less than $.15
regardless of the five-day average closing trading price of a share of
Purchaser’s common stock for the five trading days immediately prior to such
Payment Date. If the five-day average closing trading price of a share of
Purchaser’s common stock for any Payment Date is less than $.15, then the
Purchase Price Per Share Denominator shall be $.15. In connection herewith, the
Members acknowledge and agree that although Purchaser will direct its transfer
agent within two business days of a particular Payment Date to prepare and
deliver to the Members the stock certificates evidencing the Purchase Price
Shares, the actual date of delivery of the stock certificates to Members is in
the transfer agent’s control and it shall not a be a breach of this Agreement
that such stock certificates are not delivered to Members on the particular
Payment Date so long as Purchaser directs the transfer agent to issue such stock
certificates within two business days of the particular Payment Date. .

2.2    Earn-Out.

(a) In addition to the Purchase Price Shares, the Members shall be entitled to
the issuance of up to an additional $600,000 in shares of common stock of the
Purchaser (the “Earn Out Shares”) during the 18 month period following the
Closing Date (the “Earn Out Period”) based on the gross revenues of the Company
derived from the exploitation of the content licensed pursuant to the Licensing
Agreements (defined below) as well as the eBooks (collectively, the “Earn Out
Revenues”), as follows (each, an “Earn Out Date”):

(i) $150,000 in Earn Out Shares if and when the monthly Earn Out Revenues for
two consecutive calendar months during the Earn Out Period, equal or exceed
$50,000, plus

(ii) $150,000 in Earn Out Shares if and when the monthly Earn Out Revenues for
two consecutive calendar months during the Earn Out Period equal or exceed
$100,000, plus

(iii) $150,000 in Earn Out Shares if and when the monthly Earn Out Revenues for
two consecutive calendar months during the Earn Out Period equal or exceed
$200,000, and plus
 
(iv) $150,000 in Earn Out Shares if and when the monthly Earn Out Revenues for
two consecutive calendar months during the Earn Out Period equal or exceed
$250,000.

(b) The Earn Out Shares, if any, shall be allocated among the Members, and
issued in the names of the Members, in accordance with the Pro Rata
Distribution.
 
 
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(c) The number of Earn Out Shares issued on a particular Earn Out Date shall be
calculated by dividing $150,000 by the average closing trading price of a share
of Purchaser’s common stock for the five trading days immediately prior to such
Earn Out Date (the “Earn Out Per Share Denominator”); provided that, each of the
Members acknowledges and agrees, in no event shall the Earn Out Per Share
Denominator be less than $.15 five-day average closing trading price of a share
of Purchaser’s common stock for the five trading days immediately prior to such
Earn Out Date. If the five-day average closing trading price of a share for any
Earn Out Date is less than $.15, then the Purchase Price Per Share Denominator
shall be $.15. In connection herewith, the Members acknowledge and agree that
calculation of the monthly gross revenues for purposes of determining whether
any Earn Out Shares are issuable shall occur within 15 days of the end of each
calendar month during the Earn Out Period and the direction to the transfer
agent to issue the stock certificates evidencing the Earn Out Shares, if any,
shall not be made until such calculation is complete. The monthly gross revenues
of the Company for each month within the Earn Out Period shall be reported to
the Members within 15 days after the end of such month. Each Earn Out Date shall
be no later than the 20th day after the end of the month in which the Members
earned the Earn Out Shares pursuant to subsection 2.2(a) above.

(d) The Earn Out Shares payable under subsection 2.2(a) above shall be
calculated in the aggregate (i.e. if the monthly Earn Out Revenues of the
Company during the first two months of the Earn Out Period equal $100,000, the
Members shall be entitled to $300,000 in Earn Out Shares). Earn Out Share
eligibility shall be calculated for each two-month period during the Earn Out
Period. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Members shall not
be entitled to receive more than $600,000 in aggregate Earn Out Shares, even if
the monthly Earn Out Revenues would otherwise entitle the Members to additional
Earn Out Shares.

with this Section 8, and, without further notice, to have stipulated to the
entry of a final judgment for damages against the Indemnitor for such amount in
any court having jurisdiction over the matter where venue is proper.
 
 
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(b) Contested Claims. In the event that the Indemnitor gives the Indemnified
Party written notice contesting all or any portion of an Indemnification Notice
(a “Contested Claim”) within the thirty (30)-day period specified in Section
8.6(a), then: (i) such Contested Claim will be resolved by either (A) a written
settlement agreement executed by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor after
settlement discussions to take place over a maximum of twenty (20) days or
(B) in the absence of such a written settlement agreement executed by the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor within the twenty (20)-day period, by
binding arbitration between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor in
accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 8.6(c); provided, that if
such notice denies the validity of only part of such Claim, the Indemnitor will
be conclusively deemed to have consented, to the recovery by the Indemnified
Party the portion of the Losses that is uncontested, and, without further

Parties covenant that they will participate in the arbitration in good faith,
and that they will share in its costs in accordance with subsection (i) below.
The provisions of this Section 8.5(c) may be enforced by any federal or state
court in the County of Los Angeles, California having competent jurisdiction
over the subject matter of the controversy, and the party seeking enforcement
will be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is
ordered.

(i) Payment of Costs. The costs of arbitration (including the arbitrators’ fees)
initially will be borne equally (50/50) between the petitioner(s) and
respondent(s), and each Party will bear its own attorneys’ fees. The arbitrator
may, at his or her discretion, reallocate some or all of costs of arbitration
(including the arbitrator’s fees, but not including attorneys’ fees) of the
prevailing party based upon the arbitrator’s determination, and only to the
extent that the arbitrator finds, that the arbitration was commenced in bad
faith by the initiating party.

(ii) Burden of Proof. Except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein, for
any Contested Claim submitted to arbitration, the burden of proof will be as it
would be if the Claim were litigated in a judicial proceeding governed by
Pennsylvania law exclusively.

(iii) Award. Upon the conclusion of any arbitration proceedings hereunder, the
arbitrator will render findings of fact and conclusions of law and a final
written arbitration award setting forth the basis and reasons for any decision
reached (the “Final Award”) and will deliver the findings to the Indemnified
Party and Indemnitor, together with a signed copy of the Final Award. The Final
Award will constitute a conclusive determination of all issues in question,
binding upon the Parties, and will include an affirmative statement to such
effect. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any
court having competent jurisdiction.

provisions will not have the power to alter, amend or otherwise affect the terms
of these arbitration provisions or the provisions of this Agreement.

or as specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement, arbitration conducted

resolution of any Contested Claim made pursuant to Section 8.
 
8.6    Conditions of Indemnification of Third Party Claims The obligations and
liabilities of an Indemnitor under this Section 8 with respect to damages
resulting from Claims by persons not party to this Agreement shall be subject to
the following terms and conditions:

(a) Promptly after delivery of an Indemnification Notice in respect of a Claim
and subject to subsection (c) of this Section 8.6, if the Indemnitor shall
acknowledge in writing to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnitor shall be
obligated under the terms of its indemnity hereunder in connection with such
Action, the Indemnitor may elect, by written notice to the Indemnified Party, to
undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor; provided,
that the Indemnitor shall not enter into a settlement agreement of such Claim
without the Indemnified Party’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. If the Indemnitor chooses to defend any Claim, the Indemnified Party
shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Indemnitor and shall make
available to the Indemnitor any books, records or other documents within its
control that are necessary or appropriate for such defense.

(b) In the event that the Indemnitor, within a reasonable time after receipt of
an Indemnification Notice, does not so elect to defend such Claim or, after
undertaking the defense of such Claim, fails to continue the defense of such
Claim, the Indemnified Party will have the right (upon further notice to the
Indemnitor) to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Claim for
the account of the Indemnitor.

(c) Anything in this Section 8.6 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) if the
Indemnified Party believes there is a reasonable probability that a Claim may
materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party
shall have the right to participate in the defense, compromise or settlement of
such Claim; provided, that the Indemnitor shall not be liable for expenses of
separate counsel of the Indemnified Party engaged for such purpose, unless the
named parties to the Action regarding such Claim (including any impleaded
parties) include both the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by counsel that there may be one
or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are different
from or additional to those available to the Indemnitor, in which event the
Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at the indemnitor’s cost, risk and expense,
to separate counsel of its own choosing, and (ii) no Person who has undertaken
to defend a Claim under Section 8.6(a) hereof shall, without written consent of
all Indemnified Parties, settle or compromise any Claim or consent to entry of
any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the release
by the claimant or the plaintiff of all Indemnified Parties from all liability
arising from events which allegedly give rise to such Claim.
 
 
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
8.7    Cooperation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 8, the Parties shall cooperate with each other to maximize the
availability of insurance coverage for Claims or actions by third parties which
may be subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.
 
8.8    Right of Offset. Purchaser shall offset any Uncontested Claim against the
Members, or any of the Members successors or assigns, against the Purchase Price
Shares and Earn Shares (collectively, “Acquisition Stock”) allocated to the
Members hereunder. This offset remedy of Purchaser is not exclusive but is
cumulative with all other remedies of Purchaser against the Members, and this
offset remedy does not in any way limit the liability of the Members under this
Agreement. Purchaser shall have no right to offset any Contested Claim until
such disputed claim is resolved pursuant to Section 8.5(b) and (c) hereof;
provided, however, that Purchaser may delay the issuance of any of the
Acquisition Stock until such time as the disputed claim is resolved, at which
time the Purchaser shall either offset the claim against the withheld
Acquisition Stock, or promptly issue such withheld Acquisition Stock. In the
event of an offset hereunder, the Acquisition Stock shall be offset based on the
Purchase Price Per Share Denominator or Earn Out Share Denominator, as
applicable, that would otherwise apply to the issuance of such Acquisition Stock
to the Members on the respective Payment Date or Earn Out Date (i.e. if a
$150,000 Uncontested Claim is being offset by Purchase Price Shares, and the
five-day average closing trading price per share on the applicable Payment Date
is less than $.15, then the Uncontested Claim would be offset by 1,000,000
Purchase Price Shares).

9.    Miscellaneous Provisions.
 
9.1    Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, modified and
supplemented only by written agreement of each of the Parties hereto. By an
instrument in writing, either Party may waive compliance by the other Party with
any term or provision of this Agreement that such other Party was or is
obligated to comply with or perform.
 
9.2    Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications which
are required or may be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been duly given when received if personally delivered; the day
after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery to a domestic address by
recognized overnight delivery service (e.g., Federal Express); upon receipt, if
sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; and upon
