        ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT

       

      THIS
        TRADEMARK LICENSE AND CONTRACT ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT
        ("Agreement")
        is
        made and entered into as of June 15, 2005 by and between Aronite Industries,
        Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Aronite"),
        and
        Special Stone Surfaces, Es3 Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Es3"),
        with
        respect to the following facts:

       

      A. Aronite
        was engaged in the business of distributing decorative coatings that can
        be
        applied to resemble stone.

       

      B. Es3,
        among other businesses, intends to engage in a similar business and wishes
        to
        procure from Aronite certain rights and contract obligations on the terms
        set
        forth in this Agreement. 

       

      THEREFORE,
        in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants contained
        in
        this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

       

      1.  Trademark
        License. 

       

      a.  License.
        hereby
        grants Es3 a thirty year exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, except
        as
        expressly provided in this Agreement, non-assignable, terminable, license
        to use
        any and all (i) trademarks or tradenames that Aronite owns, whether or not
        registered with the patent and trademark office ("Licensed Trademarks") and
        (ii)
        marketing collateral, including source files and images ("Marketing
        Collateral"). 

       

      b.  Control.
        This
        license is limited to use in North America, Central America and South America
        for the authorized uses specified herein. Es3 acknowledges and agrees that
        any
        and all use of the Licensed Trademarks by Es3 inures solely to the benefit
        of
        Aronite and that Aronite reserves the right in its sole discretion to control
        the nature and quality of the goods sold or services rendered by Es3 utilizing
        the Licensed Trademarks.

       

      c.  Ownership
        by Aronite.
        Es3
        acknowledges and agrees that Aronite holds all right, title and interest
        in the
        Licensed Trademarks. Any and all goodwill arising from Es3's use of the Licensed
        Trademarks shall inure solely to the benefit of Aronite, and neither during
        nor
        after the termination of this Agreement and the license granted hereunder
        shall
        Es3 assert any claim to the Licensed Trademarks (or any confusingly similar
        mark) or such goodwill. Es3 shall not directly or indirectly, during the
        term of
        this Agreement or thereafter, through itself or third parties, challenge
        Aronite's rights in the Licensed Trademarks. In no event shall Es3 seek to
        register any Licensed Trademark or any other mark used by Aronite in any
        country, state or territory thereof. In the event that the laws, regulations
        or
        practices of any legal jurisdiction convey any right in any Licensed Trademark
        used by Aronite to Es3, Es3 hereby assigns such right or interest to Aronite
        and
        agrees to enter into any further documentation required by Aronite, in its
        sole
        discretion, to perfect ownership of such right or interest in Aronite. Es3
        agrees to ensure that its successors, assigns and affiliated companies, if
        any,
        comply with the terms of this provision.

       

      
        
           

        

        
           

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

         

      

      2.  License
        Royalties

       

      a.  Prices.
        Es3
        shall pay to Aronite the applicable royalties set forth on Exhibit A for
        the
        Licensed Trademarks and the Marketing Collateral and other exclusive rights
        provided pursuant to this Agreement. 

       

      b.  Payments.
        Es3
        will report its sales of products using the Licensed Trademarks to Aronite
        quarterly within thirty (30) days of the end of each calendar quarter. The
        report will include the information reasonably necessary to calculate the
        royalties due hereunder. At the time of furnishing the report, Es3 will pay
        to
        Aronite all unpaid royalties that accrued during the prior calendar
        quarter.

       

      c.  Interest.
        Es3
        shall pay to Aronite interest on overdue payments at an annual rate of 18
        percent, compounded monthly, or, if lower, the maximum rate permitted by
        law.

       

      d.  Taxes.
        All
        payments to Aronite hereunder shall be net of all VAT, customs duties, sales,
        use and other taxes or charges that may be imposed upon such payments. If
        Es3
        shall be obliged to deduct any withholding tax from the royalties to be paid
        pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with any applicable tax law, Es3
        shall
        (i) pay such additional amounts as are necessary to ensure that the net amount
        actually received by Aronite, free and clear of all such taxes, will equal
        the
        full amount that Aronite would have received had no such taxes been levied,
        and
        (ii) promptly provide Aronite with the necessary certificate required by
        any
        applicable tax law showing, inter alia, that such deductions have been made.
        Aronite shall, at the request of Es3, apply for, and use reasonable endeavors
        to
        obtain, an exemption certificate or direction to pay gross in relation to
        withholding taxes on royalties under any applicable tax law.

       

      3.  Buy
        Out Option. All
        of
        the Licensed Trademarks and Marketing Collateral and related intellectual
        property under this Agreement may be purchased by Es3 at its option at any
        time
        in accordance with the formula established in Exhibit A.

       

      4.  Contract
        Assignment and Assumption.
        Aronite
        hereby assigns all of Aronite's rights and obligations under that certain
        Sublicense and Distribution Agreement dated as of April 30, 2004 between
        Aronite
        and Fyfe Co. LLC (the "Fyfe
        Agreement").
         Es3
        hereby accepts the assignment of the Fyfe Agreement and assumes and agrees
        to
        discharge, pay, perform and satisfy, effective as of the close of business
        on
        the date hereof, all of the duties, liabilities and obligations and covenants
        of
        Aronite pursuant to or under the Fyfe Agreement. Es3 is not assuming or
        otherwise responsible for any duties, liabilities and obligations of Aronite
        pursuant to or under the Fyfe Agreement which came due prior to the date
        of this
        Agreement. Es3 is not accepting or assuming or agreeing to discharge, pay,
        perform or satisfy any duties, liabilities or obligations other than the
        Fyfe
        Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Es3 is not assuming
        any contracts, warranty or support obligations for any Aronite customers.
        

       

      5.  Issuance
        of Es3 Shares. As
        additional consideration for the licenses and assignment set forth in this
        Agreement, and in addition to the assumption of the Fyfe Agreement set forth
        herein, Es3 hereby transfers to Aronite 8,618,750 shares of its authorized
        but
        unissued Common Stock. 

       

      
        
           

        

        
          2

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

         

      

      6.  Indemnification
        by Es3. Es3
        agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Aronite and its successors, officers,
        directors, shareholders, employees and assigns harmless against any and all
        losses or damages arising out of or in connection with Es3’s performance of or
        failure to perform the obligations of Aronite to be performed under the Fyfe
        Agreement after the date of this Agreement. 

       

      7.  Indemnification
        by Aronite. Aronite
        agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Es3 and Es3's successors, officers,
        directors, shareholders, employees and assigns harmless against any and all
        losses or damages arising out of or in connection with Aronite’s performance of
        or failure to perform the obligations of Aronite to be performed under the
        Fyfe
        Agreement prior to the date of this Agreement. 

       

      8.  Representation
        and Warranties of Aronite. Aronite
        represents and warrants to Es3 as follows:

       

      a.  Corporate
        Authority.
        Aronite
        has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform
        its obligations under this Agreement. 

       

      b.  Binding
        Obligation.
        This
        Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Aronite and
        constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Aronite, in accordance
        with
        its terms except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
        reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting
        enforcement of creditors' rights generally.

       

      c.  No
        Previous Transfer.
        Aronite
        has not previously assigned or transferred or purportedly assigned or
        transferred, voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, any of its
        rights, titles, interests, duties and obligations in any of the Licensed
        Trademarks, the Marketing Collateral or the Fyfe Agreement.

       

      d.  Investor
        Status.
        Aronite
        is an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation
        D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
        Act"),
        on
        the basis that each of its owners are accredited investors.

       

      e.  No
        Government Review.
        Aronite
        understands that neither the SEC nor any securities commission or other
        governmental authority of any state, country or other jurisdiction has approved
        the issuance of the Common Stock or passed upon or endorsed the merits of
        the
        Common Stock or this Agreement or any other document relating to the assignment,
        or confirmed the accuracy of, determined the adequacy of, or reviewed this
        Agreement or any other documents.

       

      f.  Investment
        Intent.
        The
        shares of Common Stock are being acquired by Aronite which may distribute
        them
        to its stockholders for their own account for investment purposes only, not
        as a
        nominee or agent and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any
        part
        thereof, and Aronite and its stockholders have no other present intention
        of
        selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same.
        

       

      
        
           

        

        
          3

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

         

      

      g.  Restrictions
        on Transfer.
        Aronite
        understands that the shares of Common Stock have not been registered under
        the
        Securities Act or registered or qualified under any foreign or state securities
        law, and may not be, directly or indirectly, sold, transferred, offered for
        sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of without registration
        under
        the Securities Act and registration or qualification under applicable state
        securities laws or the availability of an exemption therefrom. In any case
        where
        such an exemption is relied upon by Aronite from the registration requirements
        of the Securities Act and the registration or qualification requirements
        of such
        state securities laws, Aronite shall furnish Es3 with an opinion of counsel
        stating that the proposed sale or other disposition of such securities may
        be
        effected without registration under the Securities Act and will not result
        in
        any violation of any applicable state securities laws relating to the
        registration or qualification of securities for sale, such counsel and opinion
        to be satisfactory to Es3. 

       

      h.  Access
        to Information.
        Aronite
        acknowledges that it has had access to and has reviewed all documents and
        records relating to Es3 that it has deemed necessary in order to make an
        informed investment decision with respect to an investment in Es3; that it
        has
        had the opportunity to ask representatives of Es3 certain questions and request
        certain additional information regarding the terms and conditions of such
        investment and the finances, operations, business and prospects of Es3 and
        has
        had any and all such questions and requests answered to its satisfaction;
        and
        that based on the foregoing it understands the risks and other considerations
        relating to an investment in Es3. Aronite has made such investigations in
        connection herewith as it deemed necessary or desirable so as to make an
        informed investment decision without relying upon Es3 for legal or tax advice
        related to this investment. 

       

      i.  Reliance
        on Representations.
        Aronite
        understands that the shares of Common Stock are being offered and sold to
        it in
        reliance on specific exemptions from the registration and/or public
        offering requirements
        of the U.S. federal and state securities laws and that Es3 is relying in
        part
        upon the truth and accuracy of, and Aronite's compliance with, the
        representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
        of
        Aronite set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such
        exemptions and the eligibility of such Aronite to acquire the Common
        Stock.

       

      j.  No
        General Solicitation.
        Aronite
        is unaware of, and in deciding to participate in the transactions contemplated
        hereby is in no way relying upon, and did not become aware of the transactions
        contemplated hereby through or as a result of, any form of general solicitation
        or general advertising including, without limitation, any article, notice,
        advertisement or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine
        or
        similar media, or broadcast over television or radio or the internet, in
        connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

       

      9.  Further
        Assurances.
        Aronite
        will, from time to time, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments
        and documents, and take all further action, that Es3 may reasonably request
        to
        perfect and protect the assignment of the Rights to Es3 under this
        Agreement.

       

      10.  Attorneys
        Fees.
        If any
        action, including any arbitration proceeding, is instituted to enforce the
        terms
        or provisions of this Agreement, including an action instituted after the
        bankruptcy of a party, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled
        to
        collect as part of its recovery all reasonable costs, charges and fees,
        including but not limited to its expert witness fees and attorneys’ fees and
        costs, incurred in connection with such action.

       

      
        
           

        

        
          4

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

         

      

      11.  Choice
        of Law and Venue. This
        Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal
        laws of the State of California, without regard to the principles of conflict
        of
        laws. Any action arising out of this Agreement shall be brought and maintained
        in the Court, the Federal District Court for the Southern District of California
        or the California state courts located in San Diego County, and the
        parties
        hereto consent to the jurisdiction of such courts.

       

      12.  Binding
        Effect. This
        Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, Es3 and
        Aronite and their respective successors and assigns.

       

      13.  Assignment.
        

       

      a.  By
        Aronite.
        This
        Agreement may be assigned by Aronite in its sole discretion without notice
        to
        any entity which assumes its obligations and acquires ownership of or the
        right

        Es3.
        Aronite

        and accordingly this Agreement may not be assigned or encumbered by Es3 without
        Aronite's prior written consent, which consent shall be in its sole discretion.
        

       

      14.  Entire
