take, all steps reasonably necessary to preserve its legal rights in, and the
secrecy of, all its Proprietary Assets, except those for which disclosure is

                                        5

<PAGE>





Asset of any other person or entity; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, and notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Investor expressly acknowledges that, although the Company's
business as proposed to be conducted will implement safeguards against
infringement of third party intellectual property rights (e.g., in its terms of
use and through the availability of its digital rights management feature - the
copyright protected network ("CPN")), no assurance can be provided to the
Investor that all of such third parties' respective intellectual property rights
will not be infringed by participants, users and/or subscribers of the Company's

laws including, but not limited to, the DMCA.

aware that any employee or consultant of the Company is obligated under any
agreement (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or
subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency,
or any other restriction that would interfere with the use of his or her best
efforts to carry out his or her duties for the Company or to promote the
interests of the Company or that would conflict with the Company's business as
proposed to be conducted. The carrying on of the Company's business by the
employees and contractors of the Company and the conduct of the Company's
business as presently proposed, will not, to the best of the Company's
Knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or
provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or
instrument under which any of such employees or contractors or the Company is
now obligated. The Company does not believe it is or will be necessary to
utilize any inventions of any employees of the Company (or persons the Company
currently intends to hire) made prior to their employment by the Company which
have not otherwise become property of the Company. To the best of the Company's
knowledge, at no time during the conception of or reduction of any of the
Proprietary Assets to practice was any developer, inventor or other contributor
to such patents operating under any grants from any governmental entity or
agency or private source, performing research sponsored by any governmental
entity or agency or private source or subject to any employment agreement or
invention assignment or nondisclosure agreement or other obligation with any
third party that could adversely affect the Company's rights in such Proprietary
Assets.

foreign countries or other governmental bodies and agencies having jurisdiction

notice of any violation of such statutes, laws, regulations or orders which has
not been remedied prior to the date hereof. The execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the Related Agreements and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will not result in any such
violation or default, or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the
passage of time or the giving of notice or both, either a default under the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or any agreement or contract
of the Company, or, to the best of the Company's Knowledge, a violation of any
statutes, laws, regulations or orders, or an event which results in the creation
of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any asset of the Company.

         4.       REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF
INVESTOR. The Investor hereby represents and warrants to, and agree with, the
Company that:

                  4.1      AUTHORIZATION. This Agreement constitutes the
Investor's valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with
its terms except as may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (ii) the effect of rules of law
governing the availability of equitable remedies. The Investor represents that
it has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the Related
Agreements and that its entering into this Agreement and consummating the
transactions contemplated hereby will not conflict with, violate, or result in a
breach of any terms or conditions of any order, judgment or decree, or any
agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its
properties or assets are bound, or constitutes a default thereunder.

                                       12

<PAGE>


                  4.2      PURCHASE FOR OWN ACCOUNT. The Purchased Shares to be
purchased by the Investor hereunder will be acquired for investment for the
Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the
public resale or distribution thereof within the meaning of the Act, and the
Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or
otherwise distributing the same. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the
Company acknowledges that Investor may transfer all or any portion of its
investment in the Company to one or more affiliates of the Investor. The
Investor also represents that it has not been formed for the specific purpose of
acquiring the Purchased Shares.

                  4.3      DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. The Investor has received
or has had full access to all the information it considers necessary or
appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the
Purchased Shares to be purchased by the Investor under this Agreement. The
Investor further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers
from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the
Purchased Shares and to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company
possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or
expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to the Investor or to
which the Investor had access. The foregoing, however, does not in any way limit
or modify the representations and warranties made by the Company in SECTION 3.

                  4.4      INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE. The Investor understands that
the acquisition of the Purchased Shares involves substantial risk. The Investor:
(i) has experience as an investor in securities of companies in the development
stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic
risk of its acquisition of the Purchased Shares and has such knowledge and
experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the
merits and risks of this acquisition of the Purchased Shares and protecting its
own interests in connection with this acquisition and/or (ii) has a preexisting
personal or business relationship with the Company and certain of its officers,
directors or controlling persons of a nature and duration that enables the
Investor to be aware of the character, business acumen and financial
circumstances of such persons.

                  4.5      RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The Investor understands that
the Purchased Shares are characterized as "restricted securities" under the Act
inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not
involving a public offering and that under the Act and applicable rules and
regulations thereunder such securities may be resold without registration under
the Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the Investor
represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and regulations
promulgated under the Act ("RULE 144"), as presently in effect, and understands
the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act. The Investor understands
that the Company is under no obligation to register any of the securities sold
hereunder except as provided in the Investor Rights Agreement. The Investor
understands that no public market now exists for any of the Purchased Shares and
that it is uncertain whether a public market will ever exist for the Purchased
Shares.

                  4.6      FURTHER LIMITATIONS ON DISPOSITION. Without in any
way limiting the representations set forth above, the Investor further agrees
not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Purchased Shares unless
and until:

                           (a)      there is then in effect a registration
statement under the 1933 Act covering such proposed disposition and such
disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or

                           (b)      (i) the Investor shall have notified the
Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a
statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii)
the Investor shall have furnished the Company, at the expense of the Investor or
its transferees, with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, that such disposition will not require registration of such securities
under the Act.

                  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b)
above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be required:
(i) for any transfer of any Purchased Shares in compliance with Rule 144 or Rule
144A; or (ii) for any transfer of any Purchased Shares by the Investor to (A) a
partner or member of such Investor, (B) a retired partner of such Investor who
retires after the date hereof, or (C) the estate of any such partner or member;
PROVIDED that in each of the foregoing cases the transferee agrees in writing to
be subject to the terms of this SECTION 4 to the same extent as if the
transferee were an original Investor hereunder.

                  4.7      LEGENDS. It is understood that the certificates
evidencing the Purchased Shares will bear the legends set forth below:

                  (a)      THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN
                  REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
                  "ACT"), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE
                  SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND
                  RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS
                  PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
                  LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM.
                  INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR
                  THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE
                  PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN
                  OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE
                  ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS
                  IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
                  LAWS.

                  (b)      Any legend required by state securities laws.

                  The legend set forth in (a) above shall be removed by the
Company from any certificate evidencing Purchased Shares upon delivery to the
Company of an opinion by counsel,

                                       14

<PAGE>




reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that a registration statement under the
Act is at that time in effect with respect to the legended security or that such
security can be freely transferred in a public sale without such a registration
statement being in effect and that such transfer will not jeopardize the
exemption or exemptions from registration pursuant to which the Company issued
the Purchased Shares. The Company acknowledges and agrees that it will permit
the transfer of the Purchased Shares to an affiliate of the Investor without
requiring an opinion of counsel so long as the legend set forth in (a) above
appears on the transferred certificates and so long as such transfer is not in
violation of applicable federal and state securities laws.

                  7.14     ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, together with all
exhibits and schedules hereto, constitutes the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and

understandings duties or obligations between the parties with respect to the

                  7.15     FURTHER ASSURANCES. From and after the date of this

                  7.16     MUTUAL DRAFTING. This Agreement is the result of the
joint efforts of the Company and the Investor, and each provision hereof has
been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of the
parties and there shall be no construction against any party based on any
presumption of the party's involvement in the drafting thereof.

                  7.17     AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION; FORWARD
STOCK-SPLIT. As soon as practicable following the Agreement Date, the Company,
together with the cooperation and assistance of the Investor (who agrees to
provide all required shareholder approvals therefor), shall use its best efforts
to cause the Company's certificate of incorporation to be amended and restated
in its entirety, which amended and restated certificate of incorporation shall
be substantially in the form as annexed hereto as EXHIBIT F (the "AMENDED AND
RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION"). The Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation shall expressly provide for a recapitalization of the Company as
follows: (a) the Company shall have an authorized capitalization of fifty
million (50,000,000) shares of capital stock, of which; (i) forty million
(40,000,000) shares shall be designated as "Common Stock," having a par value of
$.0001 per share and (ii) ten million (10,000,000) shares shall be designated as
"Preferred Stock," having a par value of $.0001 par value per share (the
"PREFERRED STOCK") and (b) the Company shall affect a one thousand five
hundred-for- one (1,500-for-1) forward stock split (the "Forward Split") of its
previously issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, without par value,
whereby each holder of previously issued and outstanding Common Stock, without
par value ("OLD COMMON STOCK") shall, for each share of Old Common Stock receive
one thousand five hundred (1,500) shares of new common stock, having a par value
of $.0001 per share ("NEW COMMON STOCK"). The Preferred Stock shall be "blank
check" preferred stock and, subject to Section 5.1 of the Investor Rights
Agreement between the Company and the Investor dated of even date herewith,
shall be designated in such series and shall have such rights and preferences as
shall be determined by the Company's Board of Directors in its complete and
entire discretion.

         In the event that the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
is filed prior to the Agreement Date, the number of shares of the Common Stock
issuable to the Investor and the price per share to be paid by the Investor
shall be adjusted accordingly to reflect the Forward Split. For example, after
giving effect to the Forward Split as hereinabove described, the Investor shall
purchase on the Agreement Date three hundred thirty seven thousand five hundred
(337,500) shares of New Common Stock at a purchase price of approximately U.S.
One Dollar and forty eight Cents per share ($1.48).

                  7.18     OPTION TO MAKE FURTHER INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY.
Provided that the transaction contemplated in this Agreement occurs, and for the
period commencing on the Agreement Date through March 1, 2001 (hereinafter, the
"OPTION PERIOD"), the Investor shall have the option (the "OPTION") of investing
in the Company up to an additional aggregate of U.S. Four Million Dollars (U.S.
$4,000,000) (the "MAXIMUM INVESTMENT"), such Maximum Investment will represent
fifteen percent (15%) of the then issued and outstanding shares of New Common
Stock. The option price ("OPTION PRICE") per share of New Common Stock will be
calculated based upon the fair market value of the Company, which fair market
value will equal the Net Present Value of the Company's future income stream as
projected by the Company in its Business Plan dated October, 2000, using a
discount rate of twenty five percent (25%). In the event that the Investor
desires to exercise the Option during the Option Period, the Investor shall
provide written notice to the Company of its intention to exercise all or such
portion of the Option as it deems appropriate in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit G (hereinafter, the "NOTICE OF EXERCISE"). The Notice of Exercise shall
be accompanied by either: (i) a bank check payable to the Company in such amount
as shall represent that number of shares of the Option being exercised times the
Option Price, or (b) a simultaneous wire transfer to the Company's bank account,
as identified and reflected in Section 1.2, in such amount as shall represent
that number of shares of the Option being exercised times the Option Price.

                  7.19     PUBLICITY. Neither the Company nor the Investor shall
make any public disclosure concerning the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement unless required by law or unless upon the mutual consent of the
parties hereto; provided, further, that all such disclosure shall have the prior
reasonable approval of both parties.
