A.                                   The
Company may, by written notice to Contractor, terminate this Agreement if
Contractor is in material breach of any term, condition or provision of this
Agreement, which breach is not cured within five (5) days after
receiving written notice of such breach, if curable; provided that if
Contractor has previously been notified of a curable material breach of this
Agreement, and has cured such breach, Contractor shall not be entitled to any
additional opportunity to cure such, or subsequently similar, breaches of this
Agreement. (For purposes of clarification, in the event Contractor fails to
timely deliver materials, is provided written notice from the Company of a
breach, cures, and then subsequently fails again to timely deliver materials,
Contractor shall not be entitled to cure such subsequent breach.)

 

B.                                     The
Company reserves its right to terminate this Agreement without any further
obligation to Contractor if the development or production of the Concert Videos

is terminated at the Company’s election, and not as a result of a breach by
Contractor, the Company shall pay Contractor all non-cancelable, fully burdened
and accrued payments through the date of such termination within
thirty (30) business days of terminating this Agreement.

 

15.                                 Remedies.  In the event of any breach of this Agreement
by the Company, Contractor’s rights shall be limited to the right, if any, to
seek money damages in an action at law. The Company waives any right to rescind
the rights granted to the Company hereunder (all of which rights shall
immediately and fully vest with the Company) and waives any right to enjoin the
development, production, promotion, distribution or other exploitation of the
Concert Videos (or any part thereof). Contractor hereby agrees that the Company
shall be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief to restrain, enjoin
or prevent the breach of any obligation herein by Contractor, in addition to
any other rights which the Company may have; however, pursuit by the Company of
one remedy shall not be construed as a waiver of any other remedy. The failure
or delay of the Company to enforce any of its rights hereunder shall not be
deemed a waiver of any kind.

 

16.                                 Assignment.  This Agreement shall not be assigned by
Contractor or modified except by mutual written agreement between Contractor
and the Company. In addition, the Company shall have the right to assign this
Agreement (or any of its rights hereunder) to any person, firm or corporation.
The Company shall be released and discharged from the obligations so assumed if
such person, firm or corporation is financially responsible and assumes in
writing the obligations of the Company hereunder.

 

17.                                 Attorneys’
Fees.  If any legal action arises
under this Agreement or by reason of any asserted breach of it, the prevailing
party shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses, including all
reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in enforcing or attempting to enforce any
of the terms, covenants or conditions, and all of the costs and expenses,
including, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in any appeal from an action
brought to enforce any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof.

 

18.                                 Governing
Law; Venue; Jurisdiction.  This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
United States and the State of California, without 

 

7

 

regard to conflict of law
principles. Contractor agrees that any suit, action or proceeding arising out
of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein
(including without limitation, tort claims) shall be instituted and prosecuted
under the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or Federal court empowered to
enforce this Agreement located in Los Angeles County, California and waives any
objection thereto on the basis of personal jurisdiction or venue. However, the
Company may, in its sole and exclusive discretion, exercise the option to
initiate (or to dismiss its suit, action or proceeding in California and then
initiate) any such suit, action or proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction
in any territory in which Contractor is present or conducts business or other
activities. In any suit, action or proceeding initiated in any state or Federal
court in California, Contractor irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction and
venue of all state and Federal courts of California and waives any and all
objection to such jurisdiction that Contractor 
may have under the laws of the State of California or the United States
and also waives any right to challenge the convenience of California as an appropriate
forum.

 

19.                                 Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement shall for
any reason be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal, unenforceable, inoperative or otherwise ineffective, that provision
shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this
Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.

 

20.                                 Paragraph
Headings.  Paragraph headings are
for ease of reference only and shall not have any effect upon the construction
of this Agreement or any of the terms or provisions hereof.

 

21.                                 More
Formal Agreement.  The parties
hereto may enter into a more formal agreement containing the foregoing and such
other standard terms and conditions customarily included in the Company’s
agreements of this type (including, but not limited to, force majeure,
termination, insurance, security interests, incapacity and default,
confidentiality, name and likeness/publicity, notices, etc.) which are
incorporated herein by this reference. However, until such time as said more
formal agreement is executed by the parties hereto, if ever, this Agreement
shall constitute the sole and complete and binding agreement between the
parties regarding the subject matter hereof.

 

22.                                 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. One or more executed
counterparts of this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile, with the
intention that they shall have the same effect as an original executed
