connection with Employee's (a) private passive investments where he is not
obligated or required to, and shall not in fact, devote any managerial efforts,

professional organizations, provided that such incidental services do not

Agreement and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, for himself or on behalf
of any other person, partnership, corporation or entity, directly or indirectly,

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Trade Secrets" do not include any of the
following:

                        (i) Information which is publicly known or which is
generally employed by the trade, whether on or after the date that Employee

confidential relationship in which Employee will have access to and may create
Trade Secrets.

                (b) The Company uses the Trade Secrets in its business to obtain
a competitive advantage over its competitors who do not know or use that

property of the Company.

                (b) Return of Records. At the termination of this Agreement,
Employee shall promptly return to the Company all records in Employee's
possession or over which Employee has control.

            8.5 Prohibited Use of Trade Secrets. During the term of this
Agreement and for 12 months following termination of this Agreement, Employee
shall not undertake any employment or consulting relationship (the "New
Activity") if the loyal and complete fulfillment of his duties in the New
Activity would inherently call upon Employee to reveal any Trade Secret.

        9. Ownership of Material and Ideas. Employee agrees that all material,
ideas, and inventions pertaining to the business of the Company or of any client
of the Company, including but not limited to, all patents and copyrights thereon
and renewals and extensions thereof, trademarks and trade names, and the names,
addresses and telephone numbers of customers, distributors and sales
representatives of the Company, belong solely to the Company. Employee hereby
assigns any rights he may have to any such property to the Company, and agrees
to execute and deliver any documents which evidence such assignment.

        10. Employee Plans, etc. Employee shall be entitled to participate, to
the same extent as most other officers of the Company, in any bonus compensation
plan, stock purchase or stock option plan, group life insurance plan, group
medical insurance plan and other compensation or employee benefit plans
(collectively, "Plans") which are generally available to a majority of the other
officers of the Company during the term hereof and for which Employee shall
qualify, including specifically (i) the Company's annual bonus plan for
executive officers pursuant to which Employee shall have the opportunity to earn
an annual bonus equal to thirty percent (30%) of his salary compensation,
subject to the terms and conditions of the plan, (ii) the Company's Long-Term
Executive Bonus Plan, and (iii) the Company's 2000 Long-Term Incentive Plan
pursuant to which it shall be recommended to the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors that Employee receive annual stock option grants of no less
than 4,000 shares per year. Employee further understands, however, that the
Board of Directors, or such committee or person or persons designated by the
Board of Directors, shall determine in its sole discretion (i) whether any Plans
are made available to a majority of the officers of the Company; (ii) whether
one or more Plans are adopted solely for the Chief Executive Officer and/or one
or more (but not a majority) of the officers of the Company; (iii) whether one
or more Plans are made available to a majority of the officers; and (iv) the
amounts payable or the benefits provided thereunder to each participant in whole
or in part. Employee agrees and acknowledges that he has no vested interest in
the continuance of any Plan, and that

                                       5

<PAGE>

no Plan in existence on the date of the Agreement has acted as a material
inducement to Employee in entering into this Agreement.

        11. Termination.

            11.1 "At Will" Employment. This Agreement, and Employee's
employment, is at will, and the Company may, with or without notice, terminate
this Agreement and all of the Company's obligations hereunder with or without
"Cause." Employee may also terminate this Agreement at any time, for any reason,
upon the giving of thirty (30) days' written notice to the Company; provided,
however, the Company may waive all or any portion of such notice period in its
sole and absolute discretion. Termination by the Company for "Cause" means
termination due to (i) Employee's conviction of a felony ( which, through the
lapse of time or otherwise is not subject to appeal); (ii) Employee's material
refusal, failure or neglect without proper cause to perform adequately his
obligations under this Agreement or follow the instructions of his
supervisor(s); (iii) any negligence or willful misconduct by Employee; (iv)
Employee's material breach of any of his fiduciary obligations as an executive
officer of the Company; (v) Employee's material failure to adhere to the code of
conduct and rules set forth in the Company's Employee Handbook, as amended or in
existence from time to time; (vi) the death or disability of Employee; or (vii)
the voluntary termination by Employee of his employment, except for "Good
Reason" (as defined in Paragraph 11.3 hereof).

            11.2 Termination for Cause. Upon termination for Cause, the Company
shall only be required to pay Employee (i) accrued salary compensation due to
Employee as compensation for services rendered hereunder and not previously
paid; (ii) accrued vacation pay; and (iii) any appropriate business expenses
incurred by Employee in connection with his duties hereunder and approved
pursuant to Section 4 hereof, all through the date of termination. Employee
shall not be entitled to any severance compensation; bonus compensation, whether
"vested" or unvested; or any other compensation, benefits or reimbursement of
any kind.

            11.3 Termination for "Good Reason." Employee may terminate this
Agreement for "Good Reason" (as hereinafter defined) upon thirty (30) days
written notice to the Company. The term "Good Reason" means (i) Employee is not
appointed or is removed from the position of Vice President and Chief
Information Officer without Cause during the term of this Agreement; or (ii)
without Employee's consent, a majority of the duties defined in Section 1 hereof
are removed from Employee's responsibilities. The term Good Reason does not
include a situation where certain of the duties defined in Section 1 hereof are
removed from Employee's responsibilities and are replaced with duties which have
greater responsibility and/or authority than the duties which are removed.
Unless Employee terminates this Agreement within thirty (30) days of learning
from any source that the Company has acted so as to provide Good Reason for
Employee to terminate this Agreement, and gives thirty (30) days' written notice
of

                                       6

<PAGE>

such termination, Employee's right to receive severance compensation pursuant to
Paragraph 11.4 for such event shall be forever lost.

            11.4 Severance Compensation. In the event (i) Employee terminates
this Agreement for Good Reason in accordance with Paragraph 11.3 hereof; (ii)
Employee is terminated for any reason (except death or disability) upon, or
within six months following, a "Change in Management or Control (as such term is
defined in Paragraph 11.5 hereof);" (iii) Employee is terminated without Cause;
or (iv) the Company does not extend the term of this Agreement for a reason
other than for Cause, the Company shall be obligated to pay severance
compensation to Employee in an amount equal to his salary compensation (at the
rate payable at the time of such termination) for a period of six (6) months
from the date of termination or expiration of this Agreement, as the case may
be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is employed by a new employer, or
as a consultant after the termination of this Agreement, the severance
compensation payable to Employee hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of
compensation that Employee actually receives from the new employer, or as a
consultant. However, Employee shall have a duty to inform the Company that he
has obtained such new employment, and the failure to do so is a material breach
of this Agreement. In such event, the Company shall be entitled to (i) cease all
payments to Employee under this Paragraph 11.4; and (ii) recover any
unauthorized payments to Employee in an action for breach of contract.
Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, solely in the
event of a termination upon or following a Change in Management or Control, the
amount of severance compensation paid to Employee hereunder shall not include
any amount that the Company is prohibited from deducting for federal income tax
purposes by virtue of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, or any successor provision. In addition to the foregoing severance
compensation, the Company shall pay Employee (i) all compensation for services
rendered hereunder and not previously paid; (ii) accrued vacation pay; and (iii)
any appropriate business expenses incurred by Employee in connection with his
duties hereunder and approved pursuant to Section 4 hereof, all through the date
of termination. Employee shall not be entitled to any bonus compensation,
whether vested or unvested; or any other compensation, benefits or reimbursement
of any kind.

            11.5 Definition of "Change in Management or Control." The term
"Change in Management or Control" means (i) the time that the Company first
determines that any person and all other persons who constitute a group (within
the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
("Exchange Act")) have acquired direct or indirect beneficial ownership (within
the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of twenty percent (20%) or
more of the Company's outstanding securities, unless a majority of the
"Continuing Directors" (as such term is hereinafter defined) approves the
acquisition not later than ten (10) business days after the Company makes that
determination, or (ii) the first day on which a majority of the members of the
Company's Board of Directors are not "Continuing Directors." The term
"Continuing Directors" means, as of any date of determination, any member of the

                                       7

<PAGE>

Board of Directors of the Company who (i) was a member of that Board of
Directors on the date of this Agreement, (iii) has been a member of that Board
of Directors for the two years immediately preceding such date of determination,
or (iv) was nominated for election or elected to the Board of Directors with the
affirmative vote of the greater of (x) a majority of the Continuing Directors
who were members of the Board at the time of such nomination or election, or (y)
at least four Continuing Directors.

            11.6 Exclusive Remedy. The payments referred to in this Section 11
shall be exclusive and shall be the only remedy available to Employee for
termination of his employment with the Company, regardless of the circumstances,
reasons or motivation for any such termination. If Employee gives notice of
termination of this Agreement, or if it becomes known that this Agreement will
otherwise terminate in accordance with its provisions, the Company may, in its
sole discretion, relieve Employee of his duties under this Agreement or assign
Employee other duties and responsibilities to be performed until the termination
becomes effective.

        12. Services Unique. It is agreed that the services to be rendered by
Employee hereunder are of a special, unique, unusual, extraordinary and
intellectual character which gives them a peculiar value, the loss of which
cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages in an action at law
and that a breach by Employee of any of the provisions contained herein will
cause the Company irreparable injury and damage. Employee expressly agrees that
the Company shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent
a breach hereof. Resort to any such equitable relief shall not be construed as a
waiver of any of the rights or remedies which the Company may have against
Employee for damages or otherwise.

        13. Key Man Life Insurance. During the term of this Agreement, the
Company may at any time effect insurance on Employee's life and/or health in
such amounts and in such form as the Company may in its sole discretion decide.
Employee shall not have any interest in such insurance, but shall, if the
Company requests, submit to such medical examinations, supply such information
and execute such documents as may be required in connection with, or so as to
enable the Company to effect, such insurance.

        14. Vacation. Employee shall have the right during each one year period
of the term of this Agreement to take an aggregate of three weeks of vacation,
with pay, at such times as are mutually convenient to Employee and to the
Company.

        15. Education Benefits. The Company shall pay the reasonable cost of up
to five (5) days of educational seminars for Employee each year, subject to the
reasonable approval of his supervisor.

        16. Notices. Any and all notices, demands or other communications
required or desired to be given hereunder by any party shall be in writing and
shall be validly given or made to another party if given by personal delivery,
telex, facsimile,

five percent (35%) to the Seller and sixty five percent (65%) to the Company.

        Any 2002 Sponsorship Revenues due and payable to the Seller pursuant to
Section 2.7(a)(ii) or 2.7(a)(iii) above shall be remitted to Seller by wire
transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to the Wire Transfer
Instructions, along with a schedule setting forth the calculation of such

            (b) Seller and its Affiliates and representatives (including,
without limitation, Seller's outside accounting firm) shall have the right to
reasonably review and audit the Calculation Schedule to confirm that it is
accurate and complete once during the Seller's Objection Period (as hereinafter
defined) for a period of no more than 60 days. All reasonably documented
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Seller, Purchasers or the Company
in connection with such audit ("Audit Costs") shall be the responsibility of
Seller unless such audit _results in a deviation in the payment owed to Seller
pursuant to Section 2.7(a) of more than 5%, in which case the Audit Costs shall
be the responsibility of Purchasers. Such audit right shall include, without
limitation, reasonable access by Seller and its Affiliates and representatives
(including, without limitation, Seller's outside accounting firm) to all books
and records related to 2002 Sponsorship Revenues and to all persons who worked
for or on behalf of the Company or Purchasers in generating 2002 Sponsorship

                                       11

<PAGE>

a written notice of disagreement with respect to the Calculation Schedule no
later than 60 days after receipt by Seller of the Calculation Schedule
("Seller's Objection Notice"), each of the Company, Purchasers and Seller shall
work in good faith to resolve the issues raised by the notice of disagreement
and to make any necessary adjustments to the payment owed to Seller pursuant to
Section 2.7(a). In the event Seller does not deliver Seller's Objection Notice
within 60 days after receipt by the Seller of the Calculation Schedule (the
"Seller's Objection Period"), Seller shall be deemed to have accepted such
Calculation Schedule. If the parties are unable to resolve such issues within 30
days of receipt by the Company of the notice of disagreement from Seller, then
either Purchasers or Seller shall be entitled to submit such disagreement to
arbitration pursuant to the terms of Section 8.15 hereof.

Revenues shall include all revenues generated from any (i) agreements and, (ii)
executed letters of intent which are approved by the Purchasers with respect to
sponsorships for the 2002 Summer Tour in existence as of the date hereof. The
parties hereto also acknowledge and agree that in the event there are goods and
services, in addition to or in lieu of cash payments, received from sponsors for
the 2002 Tour Year, the 2002 Sponsorship Revenues shall include the value of any
goods and services provided by such sponsors to the Company, the Purchasers or
their respective Affiliates pursuant to their sponsorship agreement, as such
value is set forth in good faith in such agreement so long as such value may be
recorded as revenue by the Company under generally accepted accounting
principles (the "Barter Value"). The Company shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to include the good faith valuation of any Barter Value in
any applicable sponsor agreement. If, notwithstanding the previous sentence,
there is Barter Value but the amount of the Barter Value is not set forth in the
applicable sponsorship agreement, the Barter Value shall be the reasonable fair
market value thereof. In addition, to the extent that the Company receives
sponsorship revenues during the 2002 fiscal year pursuant to a sponsorship
agreement which relates to both the 2002 Summer Tour and other concert tours,
then for purposes of the 2002 Sponsorship Revenues, the parties agree to
allocate such revenues between the 2002 Summer Tour and the other concert tours

harmless from, any and all Losses incurred or suffered by them relating to,
arising out of, or in connection with, any of the following ("Purchaser

            (a) any breach of, or any inaccuracy in, any representation or

            (c) Anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement
notwithstanding, in the event of any Purchaser Indemnifiable Claim out of or
relating to a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Article
III hereof, except for a breach of Sections 3.1(b), 3.2(b), 3.3(b), 3.3(d),
3.4(c), and 3.20, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Seller shall pay
directly to the Company the full amount of any such Losses, except for
Indemnifiable Expenses relating thereto actually incurred by any Purchasers'
Indemnified Parties which shall be paid to the Purchasers' Indemnified Party
which incurred such Indemnifiable Expenses.

            (d) Anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement

                                       33

<PAGE>

writing executed by all of the Purchasers, such payment shall be allocated among
the Purchasers pro rata as follows: Vans, 70%; CAA, 10%; C&C, 10% and 4 Fini,
10%.

        7.3 Indemnification by Purchasers. Purchasers, severally and not
jointly, agree to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties against, and agree to
hold each of them harmless from, any and all Losses incurred or suffered by them
relating to, or arising out of, or in connection with, any of the following
("Seller Indemnifiable Claims"):

            (a) any breach of, or any inaccuracy in, any representation or
warranty made by any Purchaser in this Agreement or any document delivered by
Purchasers at the Closing; and

            (b) any breach of, or failure by any Purchaser to perform, any
covenant or obligation of Purchaser set out or contemplated in this Agreement or
any document delivered by Purchasers at the Closing.

        7.4 Claims. The provisions of this Section 7.4 shall be subject to
Section 7.5. As soon as is reasonably practicable after becoming aware of a
claim for indemnification under this Agreement the Indemnified Person shall
promptly give notice to the Indemnifying Person of such claim and the amount the
Indemnified Person will be entitled to receive hereunder from the Indemnifying
Person; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Person to give notice shall
not relieve the Indemnifying Person of its obligations under this Article VII
except to the extent (if any) that the Indemnifying Person shall have been
prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Person does not object in writing to
such indemnification claim within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving notice
thereof, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to recover promptly from the
Indemnifying Person the amount of such claim (but such recovery shall not limit
the amount of any additional indemnification to which the Indemnified Person may
be entitled pursuant to Section 7.2 or Section 7.3), and no later objection by
the Indemnifying Person shall be permitted. If the Indemnifying Person agrees
that it has an indemnification obligation but objects that it is obligated to
pay only a lesser amount, the Indemnified Person shall nevertheless be entitled
to recover promptly from the Indemnifying Person the lesser amount, without
prejudice to the Indemnified Person's claim for the difference.

        7.5 Notice of Third Party Claims; Assumption of Defense. The Indemnified
Person shall give notice as promptly as is reasonably practicable to the
Indemnifying Person of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any
suit, action or proceeding, by any Person not a party hereto in respect of which
indemnity may be sought under this Agreement; provided _that the failure of the
Indemnified Person to give notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person of
its obligations under this Article VII except to the extent (if any) that the
Indemnifying Person shall have been prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Person
may, at its own expense: (a) participate in the defense of any claim, suit,
action or proceeding; and (b) upon notice to the Indemnified Person and the
Indemnifying Person's delivering to the Indemnified Person a written agreement
that the Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section
7.2 or Section 7.3 for all Losses arising out of such claim, suit, action or
proceeding and that the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for the entire
amount of any Loss, at any time during the

                                       34

<PAGE>

course of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, assume the defense
thereof; provided, however, that: (i) the Indemnifying Person's counsel is
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, and (ii) the Indemnifying
Person shall thereafter consult with the Indemnified Person upon the Indemnified
Person's reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect
to such claim, suit, action or proceeding. If the Indemnifying Person assumes
such defense, the Indemnified Person shall have the right (but not the duty) to
participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense,
separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Person. If, however, the
Indemnified Person reasonably determines in its judgment that representation by
the Indemnifying Person's counsel of both the Indemnifying Person and the
Indemnified Person would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, then
such Indemnified Person may employ separate counsel to represent or defend it in
any such claim, action, suit or proceeding and the Indemnifying Person shall pay
the fees and disbursements of such separate counsel. Whether or not the
Indemnifying Person chooses to defend or prosecute any such claim, suit, action
or proceeding, all of the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or
prosecution thereof.

        7.6 Settlement or Compromise. Any settlement or compromise made or
caused to be made by the Indemnified Person or the Indemnifying Person, as the
case may be, of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding of the kind referred
to in Section 7.5 shall also be binding upon the Indemnifying Person or the
Indemnified Person, as the case may be, in the same manner as if a final
judgment or decree had been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction in the
amount of such settlement or compromise; provided, however, that no obligation,
restriction or Loss shall be imposed on the Indemnified Person as a result of
such settlement without its prior written consent. The Indemnified Person will
give the Indemnifying Person at least ten (10 ) calendar days' notice of any
proposed settlement or compromise of any claim, suit, action or proceeding it is
defending, during which time the Indemnifying Person may reject such proposed
settlement or compromise; provided, however, that from and after such rejection,
the Indemnifying Person shall be obligated to assume the defense of and full and
complete liability and responsibility for such claim, suit, action or proceeding
and any and all Losses in connection therewith in excess of the amount of
unindemnifiable Losses which the Indemnified Person would have been obligated to
pay under the proposed settlement or compromise.

        7.7 Failure of Indemnifying Person to Act. In the event that the
Indemnifying Person does not elect to assume the defense of any claim, suit,
action or proceeding, then any failure of the Indemnified Person to defend or to
participate in the defense of any such claim, suit, action _or proceeding or to
cause the same to be done, shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person of its
obligations hereunder.

        7.8 Limitations.

            (a) The liability of Seller and Purchasers under this Article VII
shall be subject to reduction in an amount equal to the value of any: (i) net
Tax benefit realized by the Indemnified Person (by reason of a Tax deduction,
basis adjustment, shifting of income, credits and/or deductions, or otherwise
from one or more fiscal periods to another resulting, in each case, from any
Loss suffered by the Indemnified Person that forms the basis of the Indemnifying

                                       35

<PAGE>

Person's obligation hereunder), giving effect to any Tax liabilities of the
Indemnified Person arising as a result of any payments made by an Indemnifying
Person with respect to such claim for indemnification; and (ii) insurance
benefit realized by the Indemnified Person in connection with any Loss suffered
by such Person that forms the basis of the Indemnifying Person's obligation
hereunder.

            (b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary,
Seller shall not have any liability pursuant to Section 7.2(a):

                (i) unless and until aggregate Losses exceed $37,500, in which
event, Seller shall only be liable to the extent that such aggregate Losses
exceed $37,500; or

                (ii) for any aggregate Losses in excess of $6,000,000, except to
the extent that such aggregate Losses arise out of or relate to breaches of the
Tax Warranties, Title and Authorization Warranties or fraud by the Seller.

        7.9 Purchasers' Indemnified and Purchasers' Indemnifying Parties'
Representative. For the purposes of this Article VII, upon the occurrence of a
Seller Indemnifiable Claim or in the event the Purchasers' Indemnified Parties
include Vans, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that unless Seller or any
Seller Indemnified Party is previously notified in writing to the contrary by
Vans, Vans shall have full authority to act by and on behalf or the Purchasers'
Indemnified or Purchasers' Indemnifying Parties ("Purchasers' Representative").

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

        8.1 Expenses. Each party hereto shall bear its own expenses with respect
to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that, Seller agrees to bear
all expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the negotiation and
execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the Sale. The Seller shall
pay all sales, use, stamp, transfer, service, recording, real estate and like
taxes or fees, if any, imposed by any Governmental Authority in connection with
the transfer and assignment of the Membership Interests.

        8.2 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented
only by a written instrument signed by the Purchasers, Company, and Seller.

        8.3 Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be
given hereunder by a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been given: (a) when received if given in person or by courier or a courier
service; (b) on the date of transmission if sent by telex, facsimile or other
wire transmission; or (c) three (3) Business Days after being deposited in the

investigation or inquiry undertaken or performed by, or on behalf of, any
Purchasers or Seller shall not limit, qualify, modify or amend the
representations, warranties or covenants of, or indemnities by, the Purchasers

foregoing or anything to the contrary contained elsewhere herein, the parties
agree as follows:

            (a) if any Purchaser has Actual Knowledge of any breach of any
representations or warranties made or undertaken by Seller pursuant to Article
III of this Agreement prior to the Closing Date, then the Purchaser(s) with such
Actual Knowledge shall

                                       37

<PAGE>

not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement for
any Losses arising out of or relating to such breach;

            (b) if any Founder (i) has Knowledge of any breach of any
representations or warranties made or undertaken by Seller pursuant to Article
III of this Agreement in connection with such Founder's performance of its
services pursuant its Prior Services Agreement with the Company prior to the
Closing Date ("Founder's Knowledge") or (ii) breaches its Prior Services

Article IV of this Agreement, then the Seller shall not be entitled to
indemnification pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement for any Losses arising

            (d) if Seller has Actual Knowledge of any breach of any

indemnify the Company and/ or the Purchasers in accordance with Article VII of

arising out of or relating to the Seller's Knowledge.

        8.5 Waivers. The failure of a party hereto at any time or times to
require performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect its right
at a later time to enforce the same. No waiver by a party of any condition or of
any breach of any term, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this
Agreement shall be effective unless in writing, and no waiver in any one or more
instances shall be deemed to be a further or continuing waiver of any such
condition or breach in other instances or a waiver of any other condition or
breach of any other term, covenant, representation or warranty.

        8.6 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.

respectively. Underscored references to articles, sections, subsections or
schedules shall refer to those portions of this Agreement. Consummation of the
transactions contemplated herein shall not be deemed a

                                       38

<PAGE>

waiver of a breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty or covenant
or of any party's rights and remedies with regard thereto. No specific
representation, warranty or covenant contained herein shall limit the generality
or applicability of a more general representation, warranty or covenant
contained herein. A breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty or
covenant shall not be affected by the fact that any more general or less general
representation, warranty or covenant was not also breached or inaccurate.

and enforced in accordance with, the substantive laws of the State of

benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns;
provided, however, that no assignment of any rights or obligations shall be made
by the Seller without the written consent of Purchasers or by any Purchaser
without the written consent of the Seller, except that (i) any party hereto may
assign its rights hereunder without such consent to any Affiliate of such party
or to any Person in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of such party or (ii) the Purchasers may
transfer their Membership Interests and any and all rights hereunder with
respect thereto, including the rights to indemnification by Seller pursuant to
Article VII of this Agreement so that the distribution of any of the benefits
pursuant to this Agreement, shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of
Membership Interests at such time; provided, however, that no assignment or
other transfer of any party's obligations hereunder shall relieve such party of

        8.15 Arbitration of Disputes.

            (a) All claims, disputes, or controversies (any or all of which
shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Dispute" or the "Disputes") arising
between the parties hereto with respect to the making, construction, terms, or
interpretation of this Agreement or the Transactional Documents or any breach
thereof, or the rights or obligations of any party hereto or thereto, shall, in
lieu of court action, be submitted to mandatory, binding arbitration upon
written demand of any party in accordance with the procedures set forth below.

            (b) Pre-Demand Requirements. No demand for arbitration of any such
Dispute may be made unless and until

                (i) the party alleging the Dispute has first sent a written
notice of Dispute to the party against whom the Dispute is alleged. The notice
shall be sent to the party in accordance with the notice provisions of the
Agreement and describe with specificity the facts of the matter at issue, the
amount involved to the extent then known, if any, and the relief sought; and

                (ii) the party to whom the notice of Dispute has been sent has
been given thirty (30) days to respond; and

                (iii) if a response is made, the party alleging the Dispute
shall reply with specificity to the response within thirty (30) calendar days of
actual receipt of the response; and

                (iv) the parties have made a good faith effort to resolve the
Dispute informally before the demand for arbitration is made.

            (c) Time Limitations. Demand for arbitration shall be made within
twelve (12) months after the date the notice of Dispute is sent, but in no event
after the date on which institution of legal or equitable proceedings based upon
the facts giving rise to the Dispute would be barred by applicable statutes of
limitation. If demand for arbitration is not made within the time period
specified herein, the party alleging the Dispute shall be deemed to have waived
and released the claim and/or cause of action and shall be barred from demanding
arbitration or pursuing any other remedy, at law or in equity, pertaining to the
Dispute or to the facts and/or issues giving rise or relating to the Dispute.

            (d) Form of Demand. Notice of the demand for arbitration shall be
served by mail upon the party against whom arbitration is sought. Said notice
shall be in conformity with

                                       40

<PAGE>

Section 8.3 of this Agreement. The demand shall set forth a reasonable
description of the issues to be submitted to arbitration, the amount involved,
if any, to the extent known, if any, and the relief sought (the "Demand").

            (e) Type of Arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in
accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration
Association (hereinafter the "AAA"), pursuant to the Uniform Arbitration Act as
adopted in the State of California, or the state equivalent.

            (f) Selection of Arbitrator. Within ten (10) days after service of
the Demand, the party seeking arbitration shall file the following items with
the office of the AAA nearest to the location of the Arbitration and shall copy
the non-initiating party by certified mail: (i) the Demand; (ii) three (3)
copies of this arbitration provision; (iii) a detailed statement of the Dispute,
including, the amount involved to the extent known and the remedy or remedies
sought; and (iv) the appropriate administrative fee as provided in the AAA
Administrative Fee Schedule. The submission shall request that the AAA submit to
the parties a list of at least three (3) disinterested arbitrators who have no
prior dealings (other than prior service as an arbitrator) with either of the
parties, and who would be willing to serve as arbitrators. The parties shall
jointly select one (1) of the proposed arbitrators. If no agreement is reached
as to the selection of the arbitrator, the parties may request that the AAA
recommend at least three (3) additional arbitrators with the above stated
qualifications. If the parties cannot agree on one (1) arbitrator from among the
second group proposed by the AAA, the AAA shall appoint one (1) of the three (3)
to serve a arbitrator.

            (g) Evidence. The arbitrator shall be the sole judge of the
admissibility, relevance and materiality of the evidence offered and conformity
with the legal rules of evidence shall not be necessary. Discovery shall be
permitted to the extent that it is not unduly burdensome, oppressive, annoying
or used to harass the other party(ies).

            (h) Location of Hearing. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to
the jurisdiction of the arbitrator in Los Angeles, California and waives any
defense in an arbitration based upon any claim that such Party is not subject
personally to the jurisdiction of such arbitrator, that such arbitration is
brought in an inconvenient forum or that such venue is improper.

            (i) Closed Hearings. The arbitration hearing shall be closed to all
persons except the arbitrator, the parties and their attorneys and witnesses.

            (j) Arbitrator Compensation. The arbitrator shall fix his/her
compensation together with the time and manner of payment. Such compensation
shall be borne equally by the parties, unless the arbitrator, in his/her
discretion, determines that the prevailing party's share should be paid by the
losing party(ies).

            (k) Limitation On Relief Awardable. The sole forms of relief
awardable by the arbitrators shall be to issue a declaratory judgment on the
construction and/or interpretation

                                       41
<PAGE>

of any clause in the Agreement; and/or award actual money damages plus, if the
arbitrator deems appropriate, pre-award and post award interest at the prime
rate, as reported in the Wall Street Journal, Western Edition, plus 100 basis
points, from the time when such amounts became due until paid. Each party shall
bear an equal share of the cost of arbitration, except that the expenses of
witnesses shall be borne by the party producing such witnesses. Each party shall
pay its own attorneys fees, unless the arbitrator, in his/her discretion,
determines that the prevailing party's attorneys fees should be paid by the
losing party(ies). The arbitrator shall have no authority or power to grant, and
no party shall seek, any award of punitive or exemplary or like damages.

            (l) Decision of the Arbitrator and Entry of Judgment. The
arbitrator's decision shall be in writing, setting forth the reasons and grounds
for the arbitrator's decision. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and
binding upon, and enforceable as to, the parties, except to the extent that
California law requires that any party to an arbitration has the right to
challenge or appeal binding arbitration. The arbitration award may be entered in
the Superior Court of Los Angeles, California, and in connection therewith, each
member hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court sitting in
Los Angeles, California solely for such purposes.

            (m) Payment of Award; Performance of Obligations. The party against
whom the award is rendered shall pay any monetary award and/or comply with any
other order of the arbitrator within sixty (60) calendar days of the entry of
judgment on the award.

                              SPONSORSHIP AGREEMENT

The following ("Sponsorship Agreement") sets forth the terms and conditions
pursuant to which LAUNCH shall be a sponsor of the North American summer leg of
the Vans Warped Tour `02 ("Tour"):

        1. SUBJECT PARTIES: LAUNCH Media, Inc., 2700 Pennsylvania Avenue, Santa
Monica, California 90404, Attn: James Pitaro, Esq. (for the purposes of this
Sponsorship Agreement, "Sponsor"), and C.C.R.L., LLC, 15700-A Shoemaker Avenue,
Santa Fe Springs, California 90670, Attn: Craig Gosselin, Esq. (for the purposes
of this Sponsorship Agreement, "Company").

        2. TERM: The term of the Sponsorship Agreement ("Term") shall commence
as of the Closing, and continue until the last concert of the Tour.

        3. NONEXCLUSIVITY: Sponsor acknowledges and agrees that Sponsor is not
the sole or exclusive sponsor of the Tour or any particular Tour event, and that
Company shall be entitled to permit other persons or entities to act as sponsors
of the Tour and/or any particular Tour event, or to refrain therefrom, in its
sole discretion.

        4. CONTROL OF TOUR: Sponsor acknowledges that Company shall have sole
and exclusive control over the concert performances, athletic exhibitions, and
all other aspects of the Tour.

        5. SPONSOR'S PROMOTIONAL ENTITLEMENT: Provided Sponsor has fulfilled all
of its obligations hereunder and is not in breach of this Sponsorship Agreement,
Sponsor shall be entitled to the following:

            (a) Company shall include the name and/or logo of Sponsor (the
"Sponsor Identification") in all radio announcements, press releases, Vans
Warped Tour CD compilations, full-page print advertisements, Tour posters, and
other promotional materials (collectively, "Tour Promotional Materials") created
and placed directly by Company or under Company's control during the Term which
relate solely to the Tour and embody the name(s) and/or logo(s) of substantially
all other sponsors of the Tour. The size and location of Sponsor's name and/or
logo in such advertisements shall be determined by Company, in its sole
discretion, but shall never be smaller than twenty-five percent (25%) of the
size of that of any title sponsor and shall always be substantially comparable
in size to that of any other associate level sponsor of the Tour. No inadvertent
failure to incorporate the Sponsor Identification as set forth above in any
applicable Tour Promotional Materials shall be deemed a breach hereof, provided
Company endeavors to prospectively cure such failure, if possible, following
written notice thereof from Sponsor. Sponsor shall prepare artwork embodying the
Sponsor Identification, in such format reasonably requested by Company, and
shall deliver same to Company in accordance with Company's production timetable.
Sponsor shall have the right to approve the main advertising "mat" created for
the Tour, solely for the purpose of insuring that Company has complied with the
foregoing obligation concerning inclusion of the Sponsor Identification, which
approval shall not be

                                      A-2

<PAGE>

unreasonably withheld or delayed.

            (b) Subject to the prior written approval of Company in each
instance, Sponsor shall have the right to identify itself as a sponsor of the
Tour in its television, radio and/or print advertising; provided, however, that
the Tour must in all instances be identified as the "Vans Warped Tour '02 --
Presented by [TBD]", or as Company shall otherwise direct in writing.

            (c) Subject to Company's contractual obligations to other sponsors
of the Tour and local restrictions, if any, Sponsor shall have the nonexclusive
right to post two (2) banners (not to exceed 3' x 6' or 4' x 2' in size) (the
"Banners") containing a mutually approved design incorporating Sponsor's name
and/or logo, at each concert location of the Tour. The specific location,
placement and all other aspects of the display of the Banners shall be subject
to Company's approval. Sponsor shall be solely responsible for all costs and
expenses associated with the creation of the Banners and shall, at Sponsor's
sole cost and expense, deliver the Banners, along with all other materials which
Sponsor intends to be transported by Company in accordance with paragraph (d),
below, to Company where and as directed by Company. Company shall have no
liability whatsoever for any loss of or damage to the Banners posted by Sponsor
at concert locations of the Tour, and shall have no obligation to return any
Banners to Sponsor upon the conclusion of the Tour.

            (d) Company shall provide to Sponsor ground space approximately 10'
by 20' in size for an enclosed tent at each concert location of the Tour (the
"Sponsor Tent"), which Sponsor Tent shall be provided by Company. Sponsor
acknowledges and agrees that the Sponsor Tent shall house the "Warped Are They
Now" attraction (the "Attraction") as was the case in connection with the Vans
Warped Tour `01. Sponsor may have Company hang banners or other signage
embodying the Sponsor Identification (which signage shall be provided by Sponsor
and delivered to Company prior to commencement of the Tour) and conduct
autograph signings by Tour artists within the Sponsor Tent on a non-exclusive
basis. Company shall be responsible for setting up, breaking down, staffing,
maintaining, and transporting the Sponsor Tent and the Attraction for the
duration of the Tour, and shall bear all costs associated therewith.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sponsor shall be solely responsible for
negotiating and making necessary arrangements with Tour artists concerning
autograph signing events, and shall bear all costs and obligations associated
therewith; in this connection, however, Company shall use reasonable efforts to
respond to Sponsor's written requests for Tour artist contact information.
Unless caused directly or indirectly by Company, Company shall have no liability
whatsoever for any injuries to persons, or loss or damage to property arising
out of or in any way related to the Sponsor Tent, or to any property, materials,
products and/or merchandise which Sponsor uses, distributes, and/or exhibits in
the Sponsor Tent, or otherwise, at concert locations during the Tour, except
that Company shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that Sponsor's signage to be
displayed in the Sponsor Tent is not stolen or damaged by Tour patrons, and will
immediately notify sponsor if such signage is stolen or damaged.

            (e) Company shall provide Sponsor with eight (8) complimentary
general admission tickets (four [4] of which shall be accompanied by VIP access
passes) for each Tour concert during the Term for Sponsor's use for giveaways,
employee incentives or other promotional purposes, as well as up to four (4)
seasonal VIP laminates for use by Sponsor representatives. None of the foregoing
tickets or

                                      A-3

<PAGE>

passes may be resold under any circumstances.

            (f) Company shall make available to Sponsor, at Company's sole cost
and expense, a fixed placement advertisement (approximately 1.5" by .75" in
size) on the home page of Company's Tour website during the duration of the
Tour. Sponsor shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses in
connection with the creation of any and all materials necessary to implement the
foregoing (i.e., layout design, graphics, concept, artwork, etc.), and shall
deliver same to Company at Sponsor's sole cost and expense.

        6. COMPANY'S USE OF SPONSOR'S MATERIALS: Except as expressly set forth
herein and subject to Sponsor's prior written approval (which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed), Company shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to use Sponsor's trade-name(s), trademark(s), and/or logo(s)
(collectively, "Sponsor's Marks") in connection with: (i) any and all
advertising and promotion of the Tour; (ii) any and all Tour merchandise created
and sold or otherwise distributed by Company; (iii) any phonorecords and/or
audiovisual works relating to the Tour, including (without limitation) those
featuring musical, athletic, and/or other performances or footage from the Tour;
and (iv) any and all news items, press releases and/or other information in any
media relating to the Tour. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sponsor's approval
shall not be required for any use of Sponsor's Marks required by the terms of
this Agreement, or for any passive, incidental use of Sponsor's Marks (i.e., the
appearance of a Sponsor Mark as embodied in an on-site banner in the background
of a photograph featuring a Tour athlete or other subject) within the context of
any of the foregoing-described categories.

        7. WARRANTIES/REPRESENTATIONS/INDEMNITY/INSURANCE:

officers, directors, agents, representatives, shareholders and employees
harmless from and against any and all claims, suits, expenses, damages or other
