credit for the difference in the cost for all such Products in CPI's inventory
or in transit to CPI on the effective date of the price decrease. Upon CPI's
request, AATK shall within five (5) business days either apply such credit to
open invoices on CPI's account or pay CPI the amount equal to such credit.

and by the scheduled shipment date stated in the applicable Purchase Order
shall, at the option of CPI, relieve it of any obligation to accept and pay for
such Products as well as any undelivered shipments if there be any; and upon
failure to deliver as specified, CPI may manufacture the Products under such
Purchase Order unless deferred shipment is agreed to by CPI in writing. Any
failure by CPI to exercise its option with respect to any shipment of Products
shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver with respect to subsequent shipments.

respective Specifications, during the inspection period which period shall be
thirty (30) calendar days immediately following shipment of the Product from

within the thirty (30) calendar day inspection period shall constitute CPI's
acceptance of such Products. Products that are found to contain defects or to
fail to comply with their respective Specifications shall be returned to AATK
for repair or replacement as set forth in Section 10.3 below.

under the applicable Statement of Work, such developed products will be deemed a
Product under this Agreement, shall be incorporated herein by operation of this
Section, and all provisions hereunder shall apply to such Product.

divulge, publish or otherwise disclose or allow to be disclosed any aspect of
such other Party's Confidential Information, except with the other Party's prior
written consent and as specifically permitted by this Agreement; and (ii) shall

                                   WARRANTIES

     10.1. Product Warranties. AATK warrants that for the period of twenty (20)
years following acceptance by CPI (the "Warranty Period") the Products supplied
by AATK hereunder (i) shall be merchantable, fit and sufficient for the purpose
intended, (ii) shall be free from defects in workmanship and materials, and
(iii) shall strictly conform to applicable Specifications, drawings and approved
samples, if any, and will be free from design defects. These warranties are in
addition to those implied or available at law under the Code. All warranties
shall run, during the Warranty Period, to CPI, its customers and subsequent
owners of the Products. In the event of a breach under this Section 10.1 during
the Warranty Period or in case any Products are received Dead On Arrival, CPI
may, at its sole option, (a) repair or replace the Products, at AATK's cost, (b)
require that the Products be repaired or replaced by AATK, at AATK's cost, and
AATK shall repair or replace such Products, (c) CPI may return all or part of
the Products to AATK for a full refund for the Products returned, and AATK shall
immediately pay CPI a full refund for such returned Products, or (d) CPI may
retain the Products. If CPI retains the Products, the price of the applicable
Purchase Order shall be reduced and if the Purchase Order price has been paid, a
refund will be made to CPI by the value of diminished utility of the Products as
mutually agreed to between AATK and CPI. AATK shall maintain a sufficient
inventory of Components to fulfill its warranty obligations hereunder, as well
as for other foreseeable purposes.

     10.2. Infringement Warranty. AATK warrants that; (a) none of the Products
or any of their elements, nor the use thereof violate or will violate or
infringe upon the Intellectual Property Rights of any third party; and (b) there
is neither pending nor threatened any claim, litigation or proceeding in any way
contesting AATK's rights to any of the Products or attacking the validity or
enforcement of any Intellectual Property Rights related thereto.

     10.3. Return Procedure. Prior to any Product being returned for repair or
replacement, CPI will contact AATK and AATK shall issue a Return Material
Authorization ("RMA") number for the applicable Product(s). The Product must be
clearly marked with a valid RMA number and forwarded to the AATK designated
repair facility, F.O.B. destination, freight

                                  Page 14 of 26

<PAGE>

collect. AATK will repair or replace such Product, as selected by CPI, within
ten (10) business days and return the Product, FOB destination, using a shipping
method selected by CPI, prepaid. AATK shall pay all shipping charges for AATK to
return the Product to CPI's facility in the United States or any other location
designated by CPI. AATK bears all risk of loss of the Products being returned
under an RMA from the time such Products are initially shipped from CPI until
the time that they are received by CPI following repairs or replacement.
Notwithstanding such return procedures AATK shall not accept any returns from
CPI customers without specific written prior authorization from CPI.

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

     11.1. AATK's INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION.

          11.1.1. AATK shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CPI, and its
Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees,
agents and representatives (collectively "CPI Indemnitees") against all damages,
claims, liabilities, losses and other expenses, including without limitation
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, whether or not a lawsuit or other
proceeding is filed, that arise out of or relate to (i) any dispute or claim
that the Products, or any part thereof, infringe or violate any third party's
Intellectual Property Rights, (ii) injury to or death of persons or damage to
property that may have been caused, or that may be alleged to have been caused,
directly or indirectly, by AATK, AATK's Products, AATK's employees or agents, or
AATK's subcontractors, their employees or agents, (iii) any defect in the
Products, their manufacture or assembly, or other failure of the Products to
comply with their respective Specifications, (iv) Components used in the Product
which if so required, are not approved by CPI, (v) any negligent act or omission
of AATK, its agents, or subcontractors, (vi) a breach of any warranty provided
by AATK under this Agreement, (vii) inaccurate, erroneous or incomplete NAFTA
certifications, country of origin information, or export control classification
numbers supplied to CPI for Products furnished by AATK, (viii) any dispute or
action arising out of or relating to distribution agreements, supply contracts,
sales agency, special pricing, or other contractual obligations in writing,
verbal, implied or otherwise that AATK may have with any other party that may
conflict with or otherwise diminish the value CPI receives under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement; or (ix) AATK's failure to fully conform to all
laws, ordinances, rules and regulations which affect the Products, their use, or
any part thereof. In the event AATK fails to promptly indemnify and defend such
claims and/or pay CPI's expenses, as provided above, CPI shall have the right to
defend itself and shall have the right to withhold any further payments due to
AATK under this Agreement, and in that case, AATK shall reimburse CPI
Indemnitees for all of their reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and damages
incurred in settling or defending such claims within thirty (30) days of each of
CPI's written requests, provided that any settlement shall only be with AATK's
prior written approval.

          11.1.2. Should the Products or any part thereof, become or be likely
to become the subject of any infringement claim for which AATK is obligated to
indemnify CPI pursuant this Section 11.1, then in addition to its indemnity
obligations herein, AATK shall also, without additional cost to CPI, (a) procure
for CPI the right to continue using the Products without liability of any kind;
(b) modify the Products so they are not infringing without loss of

                                  Page 15 of 26

<PAGE>

functionality or increased costs of use, operation or maintenance; and/or (c)
replace the infringing portions of the Products with non-infringing substitutes
without loss of functionality or increased costs of use, operation or
maintenance. In addition, upon the commencement of any litigation or other
proceeding regarding such infringement or violation of Intellectual Property
Rights, CPI shall be entitled to withhold all further payments due to AATK under
this Agreement and such payments will only resume when CPI's use is restored to
the level enjoyed by CPI prior to the injunction or restriction and following
full recoupment from amounts of any CPI Indemnitees' costs and damages under
this Section.

     11.2. CPI's INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION. CPI shall indemnify, defend and
hold harmless AATK, and its Affiliates, and their respective officers,
directors, shareholders, employees, agents and representatives (collectively
"AATK Indemnitees") against all damages, claims, liabilities, losses and other
expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and costs,
whether or not a lawsuit or other proceeding is filed, that arise out of or
relate to any negligent act or omission of CPI, its agents, or Affiliates. In
the event CPI fails to promptly indemnify and defend such claims and/or pay
AATK's expenses, as provided above, AATK shall have the right to defend itself,
and in that case, CPI shall reimburse AATK Indemnitees for all of their
reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and damages incurred in settling or defending
such claims within thirty (30) days of each of AATK's written requests, provided
that any settlement shall only be with CPI's prior written approval.

          11.3.1. AATK shall maintain in full force and effect policies of: (i)
worker's compensation or employers' liability insurance within statutory limits;
(ii) general liability insurance (with broad form general liability endorsement)
with limits of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and
a five million dollars ($5,000,000) annual aggregate; and (iii) products
liability insurance, with reputable and financially secure insurance carriers in
an amount which is customarily carried by companies supplying cabinet and rack
systems with the same volume as AATK. Such coverage(s) will be purchased from an
AM Best A rated (or equivalent) carrier or carriers deemed reasonably acceptable
to CPI and will name CPI as an additional insured. Upon request by CPI, AATK
will provide to CPI copies of said policies of insurance. If AATK obtains an
occurrence-based policy, AATK will maintain "tail coverage" naming CPI as an
additional insured for a period of not less than eight (8) years following the
termination of this Agreement.

          11.3.2. CPI shall maintain in full force and effect policies of: (i)
worker's compensation or employers' liability insurance within statutory limits;
and (ii) general liability insurance (with broad form general liability
endorsement) with limits of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per
occurrence and a five million dollars ($5,000,000) annual aggregate. Such
coverage(s) will be purchased from an AM Best A rated (or equivalent) carrier or
carriers deemed reasonably acceptable to AATK and will name AATK as an
additional insured. Upon request by AATK, CPI will provide to AATK copies of

<PAGE>

     11.4. Limitation of Liability. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY
HEREIN, EXCEPT FOR (I) INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 11.1 AND
11.2 ABOVE, OR (II) CPI'S RIGHT TO BE PAID COSTS AND DAMAGES PURSUANT TO ITS
"COVER" OF PURCHASE ORDERS AS SET FORTH HEREIN AND IN THE CODE, NEITHER PARTY
SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR
EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR NOT, THAT ARE IN ANY WAY RELATED TO
THIS AGREEMENT. AATK AND CPI FURTHER AGREE THAT EACH AND EVERY PROVISION OF THIS
AGREEMENT THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS EXPRESSLY INTENDED TO BE SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF
ANY OTHER PROVISION SINCE THOSE PROVISIONS REPRESENT SEPARATE ELEMENTS OF RISK
ALLOCATION BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND SHALL BE SEPARATELY ENFORCED.

each of the parties hereto agrees as follows:

                                   ARTICLE 1.

                          PURCHASE AND SALE OF SHARES;

                  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

     The Company hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser as follows:

     2.1 Organization and Qualification; Subsidiaries.

          2.1.1 Each of the Company and each of its subsidiaries is a

and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its
business as now being conducted.

          2.1.2 Each of the Company and each of its subsidiaries is duly
qualified or licensed and in good standing to do business in each jurisdiction
(including any foreign country) in which the property owned, leased or operated
by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification or
licensing necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed and
in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

          2.1.3 The Company has made available to Purchaser complete and correct
copies of the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws, or other equivalent
organizational documents, as amended, for the Company and each of its
subsidiaries. Such organizational documents are in full force and effect and no
other organizational documents are applicable to or binding upon the Company or
any of its subsidiaries. None of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is in
violation of any of the provisions of its respective organizational documents.

     2.2 Capitalization of the Company and Its Subsidiaries. The authorized

shares of Common Stock are issued and outstanding and (ii) 1,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, of which, as of the date of this
Agreement, no shares are issued and outstanding. All outstanding shares of

outstanding options and warrants to purchase common stock at exercise prices
ranging from $0.56 to $25.00. Of this total, 5,457,528 are options and warrants

underlying such warrants, options and all other similar rights have been duly
reserved for issuance. Except as set forth above and except as set forth on
Schedule 2.2, there are outstanding (i) no shares of capital stock or other
voting securities of the Company, (ii) no securities of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock or

(collectively, "Company Securities"). There are no outstanding obligations of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem or otherwise
acquire any Company Securities. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.2, each of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of each of the Company's subsidiaries is
duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and is directly or
indirectly owned by the Company, free and clear of all Liens. There are no
existing options, calls or commitments of any character relating to the issued
or unissued capital stock or other securities of any subsidiary of the Company.
No bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries having the right to vote (or convertible into, or exchangeable for
securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which the stockholders of
the Company may vote are issued or outstanding. There are no stockholders
agreements, voting agreement or similar agreements with respect to the Company
Securities to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries are a party to, or to
the knowledge of the Company, by or between any stockholders of the Company or
any of its affiliates. The Shares being purchased by the Purchaser hereunder
have been duly authorized and will, upon issuance pursuant to the terms hereof,

arising out of contract, tort, statute or otherwise and whether direct or
indirect, accrued, matured or unmatured, asserted or unasserted, absolute,
contingent or otherwise) which would be required to be reflected on a balance
sheet prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (all
of such liabilities being collectively referred to as "Liabilities"), except for
Liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business since December 31, 2002
which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse
Effect on the Company.

     2.6 Absence of Certain Changes. Since December 31, 2002, except as
specifically disclosed in the SEC Reports filed on or prior to the date of this
Agreement or as disclosed in the December 30 Financials, neither the Company nor

the business, assets, liabilities, results of operations, properties, financial

inaction by the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their directors,

     2.9 Taxes. Each of the Company and its subsidiaries has filed all federal,
state, county, local and foreign tax returns and reports, or requests for
extensions to file such returns and reports, which the Company and its
subsidiaries were required to have filed on or before the date hereof. All tax
returns and reports filed by the Company or its subsidiaries are complete and

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and each
of its subsidiaries have paid (or the Company has paid on behalf of its
subsidiaries) or has made adequate provision for the payment of all taxes shown
as due on such returns and reflected in the most recent financial statements
contained in the SEC Reports for all taxable periods and portions thereof

     2.10 Employee Benefits.

          2.10.1 The Company has delivered to the Purchaser true, complete and
accurate copies (or if the same do not exist in written form, descriptions) of
each formal, informal, oral or written bonus, deferred compensation, incentive
compensation, stock purchase, stock option, restricted stock purchase or other
issuance, severance or termination pay, hospitalization or other medical, life
or other insurance (or similar self-insurance), supplemental unemployment
benefits, profit-sharing, employee stock ownership, pension, or retirement plan,
program, agreement or arrangement, and each other employee benefit plan,
program, agreement or arrangement whether for the benefit of present or former
officers, employees, agents, directors or independent contractors of the Company
or any of its subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate, sponsored, maintained or
contributed to or required to be contributed to by the Company or by any trade
or business, whether or not incorporated (an "ERISA Affiliate"), that together
with the Company would be deemed a "single employer" within the meaning of
Section 4001(b) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended ("ERISA") or Section 414 of the Code

                                        6

<PAGE>

plan," as that term is defined in section 3(3) of ERISA is collectively referred
to herein as "ERISA Plans."

          2.10.2 No material liability under Title IV of ERISA has been incurred
by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate that has not been satisfied in full, and
no condition exists that presents a material risk to the Company or any ERISA
Affiliate of incurring a material liability under such Title, other than
liability for premiums due the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC")
(which premiums have been paid when due). To the extent this representation
applies to sections 4064, 4069 or 4204 of Title IV of ERISA, it is made not only
with respect to each ERISA Plan but also with respect to any employee benefit
plan, program, agreement or arrangement subject to Title IV of ERISA to which
the Company or any ERISA Affiliate made, or was required to make, contributions
during the five-year period ending on the Initial Closing Date. Neither the
Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is required to contribute to a "multiemployer
plan" (as defined in Section 4001 (a) (3) of ERISA) or has withdrawn from any
multiemployer plan where such withdrawal has resulted or would result in any
"withdrawal liability" (within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA) that has not
been fully paid.

          2.10.3 The PBGC has not instituted proceedings to terminate any ERISA
Plan and no condition exists that presents a material risk that such proceedings
will be instituted.

          2.10.4 Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate, nor any ERISA
Plan, nor any trust created thereunder, nor any trustee or administrator thereof
has engaged in a transaction in connection with which the Company or any ERISA
Affiliate, any ERISA Plan, any such trust, or any trustee or administrator
thereof, or any party dealing with any ERISA Plan or any such trust could
reasonably be subject to either a material civil penalty assessed pursuant to
section 409 or 502(i) of ERISA or a material tax imposed pursuant to section
4975 or 4976 of the Code.

          2.10.5 No ERISA Plan or any trust established thereunder has incurred
any "accumulated funding deficiency" (as defined in section 302 of ERISA and
section 412 of the Code), whether or not waived, as of the last day of the most
recent fiscal year of each ERISA Plan, which could reasonably be expected to
result in a material liability to the Company; and all contributions required to
be made with respect thereto (whether pursuant to the terms of any ERISA Plan or
otherwise) have been timely made.

          2.10.6 Each Plan has been operated and administered in accordance with
its terms and applicable law in all material respects, including, but not
limited to, ERISA and the Code. No Plan is subject to any material dispute or
proceeding other than relating to a routine claim for benefits.

          2.10.7 Except as set forth on Schedule 2.10.7, there are no material
pending or (to the knowledge of the Company) threatened claims by or on behalf
of any Plan, by any employee or beneficiary covered under any such Plan, or
otherwise involving any such Plan (other than routine claims for benefits)

          2.10.8 No fact exists that could reasonably be expected to result in
the disqualification of any Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section
401(a) of the Code.

party under such Section, such indemnified party will if a claim is to be made
against an indemnifying party under such Section, give notice to the
indemnifying party, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party will not
relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any
indemnified party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates
that it shall have been materially prejudiced by the indemnifying party's
failure to give such notice. The parties shall cooperate in resolving questions
as to Damages payable under Section 6.2 or 6.3 and determining the amount of any
Damages payable. If the parties shall not be able, for a period of 30 days, to
concur and agree upon the amount of Damages payable under said Section, as

such difference to a court of competent jurisdiction in the United States of
America for final determination. The final determination of such court with
respect to any difference so submitted, after all appeals have been taken or the
time to appeal shall have expired (the "Final Determination"), shall be
conclusive and binding upon the parties. Promptly after the exact amount and
nature of any Damages under Section 6.2 or 6.3 payable has been determined or
agreed upon by the parties or fixed by a Final Determination, the indemnifying
party shall pay such Damages to the indemnified party.

     6.8 Other Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the

                         MUTUAL NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT is entered into on 3/21/2002, between Chatsworth Products, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation, with offices at 31425 Agoura Road, Westlake Village, CA
  91361 ("CPI") and American Access Technologies, Inc, a Florida corporation,
     located at 37 Skyline Drive, Suite 1101, Lake Mary, FL 32746 ("AAT").

                                    RECITALS

     A. CPI and AAT contemplate substantive discussions regarding a potential
business relationship between them ("Authorized Purpose"). This may involve the
exchange of certain confidential and proprietary inventions, ideas, processes,
methods, copyrights, patents, techniques, computer programs, hardware,
specifications, prototypes, designs, know-how, drawings, marketing plans,
financial data, customer lists, referral and vendor sources, policies, and other
procedures, and other information in written, oral and/or physical/sample from
(collectively "Confidential Information").

     B. The parties desire to protect their respective Confidential Information
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual provisions contained herein,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree
as follows:

     1. Confidential Information. All Confidential Information disclosed by
either party to the other must be in writing and clearly marked by the
disclosing party as "CONFIDENTIAL" or "PROPRIETARY". Confidential Information
disclosed orally or by demonstration shall be so identified to the receiving
party during the disclosure or demonstration and confirmed by the disclosing
party in writing within fifteen (15) business days after the disclosure. Neither
party is obligated to disclose any information or to enter into any further
agreement or business relationship with the other party.

     2. Scope. The parties agree that the Confidential Information shall be
reviewed only for the Authorized Purpose, and for no other purpose. Each party
retains the sole and exclusive ownership and intellectual property rights to its
respective Confidential Information, and no license or any other interest in a
party's Confidential Information is granted to the other party. The parties
acknowledge that all Confidential Information received from the other party is
provided without any express or implied representation or warranty by the other
party as to the accuracy or completeness of such Confidential Information or
that such information will be suitable for the receiving party's purposes.
Nothing herein shall impair the right of either party to enter into other
agreements or to develop, make, use, sell or otherwise distribute products or
services that may be competitive with those offered by the other party provided
that in doing so there is no breach of this Agreement.

     3. Restrictions. Each party agrees to protect the other party's
Confidential Information with the same degree of care that is uses to protect
its own Confidential Information, but in all events will use at least a
reasonable degree of care. In addition to such degree of care, each party shall
not in any way (a) disclose or otherwise transfer the other party's Confidential
Information to any third party at any time, including consultants and
contractors; (b) use (except as specifically permitted in writing by the other
party), copy, modify and/or transfer the other party's Confidential Information
and/or merge the other party's Confidential Information with any other
technology, software or materials; (c) to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, decompile, disassemble, peel semi-conductor components or
otherwise reverse engineer any of the other party's Confidential Information or
products; (d) remove any trademark, copyright, patent or mask work notices
and/or other proprietary legends contained within any of the other party's
Confidential Information; and/or (e) disclose the parties' discussions about
their respective Confidential Information and/or their potential business
relationship to any third party, except each party's consultants and contractors
with a specific need to know of the discussions, and only after advising them of
the provisions of this Agreement. Each party agrees that it will disclose the
Confidential Information of the other party only to its employees who have a
specific need to know regarding the potential business relationship between

                                       29

<PAGE>

parties and only to the extent necessary for such purpose. Each party shall be
responsible for any breach of this Agreement by its respective employees. To
further protect each party's interest in their respective Confidential
Information, each party agrees that it shall not in any way incorporate, use
and/or exploit any part of the other party's Confidential Information (disclosed
separately or embodied in the other party's products, equipment or operations)
in its and/or any other party's products or businesses, including without
limitation to develop, produce and/or distribute any products or services that
derive from or use the other party's Confidential Information. The provisions of
this Section 3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

     4. Exceptions. The obligations and restrictions herein shall not apply to
Confidential Information that falls within any of the following exceptions,
provided a receiving party proves by credible written evidence that such
information:

          (a) is or becomes part of the public domain through no fault of a
receiving party;
          (b) was known by receiving party prior to the disclosure by the other
party;
          (c) was independently developed by or for a receiving party completely
apart from the disclosures hereunder;
          (d) has been properly received from a third party who is not under any
obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information, and without
breach of this Agreement by a receiving party; and/or
          (e) is released pursuant to a court order or otherwise required by law
(including without limitations as required under federal or state securities
laws) provided that the receiving party immediately notifies the disclosing
party of such court order or legal requirement, and gives the disclosing party a
reasonable opportunity and cooperates with the disclosing party to contest,
limit or condition the scope of such required disclosure.

     5. Enforcement. Both parties agree that each party will be irreparably
harmed and money damages will be inadequate compensation in the event the other
party breaches any provision of this Agreement. Both parties also agree that all
the provisions of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable against each
other and their agents and/or representatives by injunctive and other relief.
The provisions of this Section 5 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.

     6. Return of Materials. All copies of a party's Confidential Information,
whether in tangible or machine readable form, shall be promptly returned to the
disclosing party upon the disclosing party's request. A receiving party shall
thereafter retain no copies, transcriptions or summaries of any portion of the
disclosing party's Confidential Information.

according to the substantive laws of the State of California without application
of its conflicts or choice of law rules.

contemporaneous understandings, oral or written. This Agreement can only be

transfer, in whole or in part, any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement.

     10. Validity. If any provision hereof is found by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions
shall remain in full force and effect, and the affected provisions shall be
revised so as to reflect the original intent of the parties hereunder to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

     11. Attorney's Fees. In the event a dispute arises regarding this
Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable
attorney's fees and costs in addition to any other relief to which it is
entitled.

     12. Waiver. The failure to enforce any provisions of this Agreement shall
not be deemed a waiver or a continuing waiver of the same or other provision of
this Agreement unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party to be
charged.
