                 12.2.2.2  CDKX shall have the right (if necessary) to use the

                           fee equivalent to 2% of the gross revenue of CDKX
                           which relate to Chinese Content (i.e. derived form
                           and attributed to the Chinese Content only and not
                           the entire Business Package as a whole) and which
                           said sum shall be paid bi-annually at the same time
                           as APL is required to pay a license fee as set out in
                           Clause 17.2 and based on the same terms of estimation
                           and reconciliation of accounts as APL and as set out
                           in Clause 17.2 of this Agreement.

                 12.2.2.3  Where CDKX wish to use the Software and CDK
                           Technology(TM)to provide or wish to allow others to
                           provide Chinese Content or any content which is not
                           primarily Other Languages and where CDKX is not
                           authorized to use the Software and CDK
                           Technology(TM)as set out in the terms of this License
                           then CDKX may in writing request the consent of APL
                           to use the Software and CDK Technology(TM) to provide
                           or allow others to provide Chinese Content or any
                           content which is not primarily in Other Languages.
                           Should APL, in writing and in its sole discretion,
                           consent to such use or arrangement then such use or
                           arrangement will not be deemed as a breach of this
                           Agreement or License provided always that consent
                           shall only apply on a case by case basis for each
                           specific matter or request.

                           In considering whether a party's use of the Software
                           or CDK Technology(TM) to provide or authorization for
                           another party to provide Chinese Content or content
                           in Other Languages (as the case may be) is in
                           competition with such party's business, the type of
                           Chinese Contents or content in Other Languages (as
                           the case may be), the target recipients of the
                           Chinese Content or content in Other Languages (as the
                           case may be), the likeness or similarity in business,
                           the intention of such relevant party, the

                           effect or impact on business of the relevant party
                           shall among other things be taken into account and
                           which factors must substantially in part or whole
                           affect such party's business or operations.

                           When assessing whether or not Chinese Content or
                           content in Other Languages (as the case may be) is
                           ancillary to or incidental to the main contents being
                           promoted, marketed or used by either party and or
                           such other persons authorized, the overall contents,
                           the amount of Chinese Content or content in Other
                           Languages (as the case may be) in comparison to the
                           amount of the Chinese Content or content in Other
                           Languages (as the case may be) being used, whether or
                           not the Chinese Content or content in Other Languages
                           (as the case may be) is the primary feature, whether
                           or not the Chinese Content or content in Other
                           Languages (as the case mat be ) is being used to
                           target recipients interested in the contents being
                           used promoted or marketed due primarily to or for
                           such Chinese Content or content in Other Languages
                           (as the case may be) shall among other things be
                           taken into account.

                           In considering whether or not Chinese Content or
                           content in Other Languages (as the case may be) is
                           ancillary to or incidental to the entire Business
                           Package and not the primary part or objective of the
                           Business Package, the number of different countries
                           (areas, venues, territories and places included), the
                           number of different languages, whether the Business
                           Package is of one agreement or several shall among
                           other things be taken into account.

                           By way of illustration only and not by way of
                           limitation, if for example CDKX or such other party
                           authorized by CDKX market, promote or use a Compact
                           Disc which contents contain Chinese art work of say a
                           picture or photograph that happens to have Chinese
                           language in the background or display in a small
                           portion of such picture or photograph then this would
                           not be deemed as primarily in the Chinese language
                           but rather incidental to the picture or photograph.
                           If, however, CDKX or such other party authorized by
                           CDKX market, promote or use the Chinese
                           language/Content which for example relates to music
                           or movies in the Chinese language and the English
                           language is used as subtitles or transliterations in
                           conjunction with the Chinese language being used then
                           this would be deemed as primary use of the Chinese
                           language and not incidental thereto.

                           By way of illustration only and not by way of
                           limitation, if for

                           or sell a "Pokemon" CD and which agreement is for the
                           distribution of Pokemon multimedia in US, Brazil,
                           France, England and Hong Kong in different languages
                           of say French, English, Portugese, and Chinese then
                           CDKX will not be in breach of this agreement but
                           shall be authorized to use the Software and CDK
                           Technology(TM) to provide or authorize others to
                           provide such Pokemon product in the Chinese language
                           provided CDKX pay a fee equivalent to 2% of the gross
                           revenue received by CDKX (or any of its subsidiaries,
                           holding company, associates, affiliates, etc.) and
                           derived from the Pokemon product in the Chinese
                           language.

         12.2.3  Events of Default in lieu of License

                 Shall either party blatantly, willfully or unreasonably intend
                 to use or allow others to use the Software which are deemed in

                                    (System)

Background
----------

Whereby CDKX has developed the software and the applications necessary and known
as CDK Technology(TM) which combines CD digital audio, fullmotion, fullscreen
video and weblinking through a browser interface. And whereas the said
technology is combined with a HTML authorizing system which is currently used by
CDKX to produce custom interface pages for specific clients within a period of
time. And whereas CDKX has the proprietary techniques and rights for creating
fullmotion, fullscreen video playback from CD Rom with such relevant hardware
system requirements. The technology employed, designed and engineered by CDKX is
engineered for mass production whereby the integration of the complete file
structure of the technology used by CDKX is automated. (Audio, video and HTML
assets can be placed in the production template for processing within a
reasonably efficient and quick development turn-around time.)

Currently CDKX has a "MixFactory(TM)" which is a custom, multi-session CD
manufacturing system built upon the CDK Technology(TM). The entire system is
automated so that minimum human intervention is required for the custom
manufacturing process. In order to create a custom CD, a user visits a website
and selects a compilation of audio, video, or other content titles. Titles are
browsed and/or searched and audio/video clips are previewed through an
interface. After selecting the compilation, the user personalizes the disc by
selecting art work for the disc label, cover and HTML interface. The
MixFactory(TM) system also allows multimedia content providers to offer their
assets on a customized basis via the website.

CDKX's MixFactory(TM) operation is designed to be a complete end-to-end
e-commerce solution, including production, payment processing and fulfillment.
Once the user confirms the content selections and completes a credit card
transaction, the selected titles are queued from storage to a Compact Disc
Recordable ("CD-R") burning workstation. The customer's tracks are formatted
into a Red Book audio session along with an iso9660 session and transferred
together to the CD-R (disc). The automated workstation transfers the complete
CD-R to the CD printer where the user-selected label is printed onto the surface
of the CD-R.

In parallel with the transfer of the tracks to the CD-R, the custom packaging
materials are printed. That is, as soon as the job is queued for burning, the
printed job is also queued to the printer. Packing and shipping of the finished
product is currently the only manually operated step in the process.

APL's System and Use
--------------------

It is APL's intention (and CDKX has hereby agreed) to employ and use the CDK
Technology(TM) and CDKX's system as described above for the development,
marketing and operation of APL's websites and other businesses which shall be

presented electronically or digitally. CDKX shall provide, install and maintain
the Hardware and Software and grant the exclusive use of the CDK Technology(TM)
in order that APL may develop its websites and other businesses for the purposes
described above in addition to being able to support the following (but not
limited to) :-

(f)      support content providers' contents;

(g)      e-commerce including production, payment processing and fullment either
         by credit card or other method;

(h)      a method whereby the consumer will be able to view the information on
         the CD via his or her personal computer and link back to related Web
         pages through targeted links included on the CD;

(i)      the ability for consumers to receive high-quality, high-bandwidth
         digital assets within a quick relay time without waiting hours for the
         files to download;
