Exhibit 10.13




     FIRST AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT



     This First Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (this “Amendment”) is
entered into as of March 11, 2005, by and between COMERICA BANK (“Bank”) and PACIFIC TITLE AND ARTS
STUDIO, INC. (“Borrower”).



RECITALS




     Borrower and Bank are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement
dated as of January 31, 2005 (the “Agreement”). The parties desire to amend the Agreement in
accordance with the terms of this Amendment.



     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:



     1. Section 2.3(a)(i) of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read
as follows:



     “Advances. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Advances shall bear interest,
on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at a rate equal to one percent (1.00%) above the Prime
Rate.”



     2. No course of dealing on the part of Bank or its officers, nor any failure or delay in the
exercise of any right by Bank, shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial
exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise of any such right. Bank’s failure
at any time to require strict performance by a Borrower of any provision shall not affect any right
of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a
right must be in writing signed by an officer of Bank.



     3. Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as
defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and
effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all
respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this
Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of
Bank under the Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof.



     4. Borrower represents and warrants that the Representations and Warranties contained in the
Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing.



     5. As a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall have received, in form
and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following:



               (a) this Amendment, duly executed by Borrower;



               (b) all reasonable Bank Expenses incurred through the date of this Amendment, which may be
debited from any of Borrower’s accounts; and



               (c) such other documents, and completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem
necessary or appropriate.



     6. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed
an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
