"Subsequent Purchase Agreement Purchase Price Deduction").

        2.4 New Services Agreements. Concurrently with the Closing, each Seller
or its Affiliate, as the case may be, and the Company have entered into a New
Services Agreement, the forms of which are attached hereto as Exhibit A-1,
Exhibit A-2, and Exhibit A-3.

        2.5 Second Further Amended and Restated Operating Agreement. At the
Closing, Purchaser and Sellers have entered into the Second Further Amended and
Restated Operating Agreement for the Company, the form of which is attached
hereto as Exhibit B (the "Second Further Amended and Restated Operating
Agreement").

        2.6 Additional Purchase Price.

            (a) Sellers and Purchaser agree that in the event "2002 Sponsorship
Revenues", as hereinafter defined, equal or exceed one million two hundred
thousand dollars ($1,200,000)(the "Threshold Amount"), Purchaser shall pay each
Seller an additional six thousand six hundred and sixty-six dollars and
sixty-seven cents ($6,666.67) (the "Additional Purchase Price"). For the
purposes hereof, "2002 Sponsorship Revenues" shall be defined as: all
sponsorship revenues received from third parties by the Company or its
Affiliates pursuant to any oral or written sponsorship agreement for the
activities of the 2002 Summer Tour, it being understood that no amount of
revenue shall be included or imputed on account of Vans' right to the title tour
sponsorship.

            (b) In the event the Additional Purchase Price becomes due to the
Sellers, Purchaser shall remit such payment to the Sellers by wire transfer no
later than ten (10) Business Days after the end of the calendar month during
which the Threshold Amount was first reached.

            (c) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that 2002 Sponsorship
Revenues shall include all revenues generated from any agreements with respect
to sponsorships for the 2002 Summer Tour. 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 or its Affiliates pursuant to their sponsorship
agreements, as such value is set forth in good faith in such agreement so

                                      -8-

<PAGE>

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 calculating the 2002 Sponsorship Revenues,
the parties agree to allocate such revenues between the 2002 Summer Tour and the
concert tours as may be set forth reasonably and in good faith in such
sponsorship agreement or if no such allocation is made, then to allocate a
reasonable amount of such revenues to the 2002 Summer Tour.

Sellers hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant, to the Purchaser,
that the representations and warranties made by the Prior Sellers and attached
hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit C-1 were true and correct as of the
Initial Sale Closing Date. For the purposes of this Agreement capitalized terms
set forth in Exhibit C-1 shall, unless otherwise indicated in Exhibit C-1, have
the definition attributable to such term in Exhibit C-2 hereto. In the event
capitalized terms in Exhibit C-1 are not defined therein and have not been
defined in Exhibit C-2, they shall have the meaning ascribed to them in Article
I hereto. For the purposes of this Agreement certain definitions in Exhibit C-1
have been modified to conform such definitions with the definitions utilized in
this Agreement.

        Article III-B - Representations and Warranties of Each Seller. Each of
the Sellers represents and warrants to Purchaser with respect to such Seller
only (it being agreed that all of the representations and warranties set forth
in this Article III-B are made severally and not jointly by the Sellers (the
"Individual Seller's Representations")), as of the date hereof , the following:

        3.B-1 Due Incorporation; Subsidiaries. The Seller is duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdictions of
organization or formation, with all requisite power and authority to own, lease
and operate its properties and to carry on its businesses and operations as they
are now being owned, leased, operated and conducted. The Seller is licensed or
qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in
each jurisdiction where the nature of the properties owned, leased or operated
by it and the businesses and operations transacted by it require such licensing
or qualification, except where

                                      -9-

<PAGE>

the failure to be so licensed or qualified would not have a Material Adverse
Effect.

        3.B-2 Due Authorization. The Seller has full power and authority to
enter into this Agreement and its Related Agreements and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution, delivery and
performance by the Seller of this Agreement and its Related Agreements have been
duly and validly approved by the board of directors, members, managers,
committees, and/or equity holders of the Seller, and no other actions or
proceedings on the part of the Seller are necessary to authorize this Agreement,
the Related Agreements, or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The
Seller has duly and validly executed and delivered this Agreement and the
Related Agreements. This Agreement and the Related Agreements constitute
(assuming, in each case, due execution and delivery by the other Parties hereto)
legal, valid and binding obligations of the Seller, in each case, enforceable in
accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or
similar laws in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors' rights
generally and by equitable limitations on the availability of specific remedies.

        3.B-3 Consents and Approvals; Authority Relative to this Agreement.

            (a) No consent, authorization or approval of, or filing or
registration with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person not a party to
this Agreement is necessary in connection with the execution, delivery and
performance of the Seller of this Agreement or its Related Agreements or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

            (b) Except with respect to items (i) and (ii) below where a breach
would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Seller, the execution, delivery
and performance by the Seller of this Agreement and its Related Agreements does
not and shall not: (i) violate any Law; (ii) violate or conflict with, result in
a breach or termination of, constitute a default or give any third party any
additional right (including a termination right) under, permit cancellation of,
result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the assets or properties of the
Seller, or result in or constitute a circumstance which, with or without notice
or lapse of time or both, would constitute any of the foregoing under any
Contract to which Seller is a party or by which Seller or any of its assets or
properties are bound; (iii) permit the acceleration of the maturity of any
indebtedness of Seller or indebtedness secured by its assets or properties; or
(iv) violate or conflict with any provision of any of the certificate of
incorporation, charter, by-laws, or similar organizational instruments of
Seller.

        3.B-4 Ownership of Rights. The percentage of the legal and beneficial
ownership of the Rights held by the Seller are accurately set forth on Schedule
2.1. The Rights owned by the Seller are free and clear of any and all Liens. The
assignments, endorsements, and other instruments of transfer delivered by the
Sellers to the Purchaser at the Closing shall be sufficient to transfer to
Purchaser the Seller's entire interest, legal and beneficial, in the Rights
being transferred. Upon execution and delivery of such assignments,
endorsements, and other instruments of transfer, Purchaser shall receive good
and marketable title in and to such

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

Rights, free and clear of all Liens. The Seller has full power and authority to
convey good and marketable title to the Rights being transferred by such Seller.

        3.B-5 Litigation. There are no claims, actions, suits, proceedings or
investigations pending or, to the Knowledge of the Seller, threatened by or
against the Seller with respect to this Agreement or the Related Agreements, and
Seller has no reason to believe there is a valid basis for any such claim,
action, suit, proceeding, or investigation.

        3.B-6 Representations and Warranties from the Subsequent Purchase
Agreement. To the Actual Knowledge of the Sellers the representations and
warranties made by Launch in Article III of the Subsequent Purchase Agreement,
as modified to delete any "Knowledge" or "Actual Knowledge" qualifiers contained
in such representations and warranties (the "Revised Launch Representations"),
are true and correct. Solely for purposes of this Section 3 B-6, to the extent
that the Sellers have no Actual Knowledge to the contrary with respect to any
Revised Launch Representation, they are entitled to and shall be deemed to be
relying on the accuracy of such Revised Launch Representation.

        Article III-C - Joint and Several Representations and Warranties.
Sellers jointly and severally represent to Purchaser, as of the date hereof, as
follows:

        3.C-1 Taxes.

            (a) All federal, state, local and foreign income, corporation and
other Tax Returns have been timely filed for the Sellers and the Company, or are
subject to a valid extension of the filing date for all periods through and
including the Initial Sale Closing Date as required by applicable Law. All Taxes
shown as due on all such Tax Returns with respect to the Company and other
filings have been timely paid. Each such Tax Return and filing is accurate and
complete. Neither any Seller nor the Company currently has or will have any
additional liability for Taxes with respect to any Tax Return or other filing
heretofore filed or which was required by Law to be filed, other than: (i) as
reflected as liabilities on the Financial Statements; or (ii) since the date of
the Initial Sale Closing Date, as have arisen in the ordinary course of business
consistent with past practice. There are no Tax liens (other than liens for
current Taxes not yet due and payable) for Taxes due with respect to all periods
through and including the Initial Sale Closing Date upon the Purchased Assets.
All Taxes that the Company is required by law to withhold or collect, including
sales and use taxes, and amounts required to be withheld for Taxes of employees
and other withholding taxes for all periods through and including the Initial
Sale Closing Date, have been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent
required, have been paid over to the proper Governmental Authorities or are held
in separate bank accounts for such purpose.

            (b) To Sellers' Actual Knowledge, for Taxes due with respect to all
periods prior to and including the Initial Sale Closing Date, no material Tax
Return of the Company is under audit or examination by any taxing authority, and
to Sellers' Actual Knowledge, no written notice of such an audit or examination
has been received by any Seller or the Company

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

prior to the Initial Sale Closing Date. For purposes of the previous sentence
only, Actual Knowledge will include inquiry to Provident Financial Management
with respect to this information. Each material deficiency resulting from any
audit or examination relating to Taxes by any taxing authority prior to the
Initial Sale Closing Date has been paid, except for deficiencies being contested
in good faith.

            (c) All Taxes for all periods through and including the Initial Sale
Closing Date that the Company was required by Law to withhold or collect,
including without limitation, sales and use taxes, and amounts required to be
withheld for Taxes of employees and other withholding taxes, have been duly
withheld or collected and, to the extent required, have been paid over to the
proper Governmental Authorities or are held in separate bank accounts for such
purpose. All information returns required to be filed by the Company prior to
the Initial Sale Closing Date have been filed, and all statements required to be
furnished to payees by the Company prior to the Initial Sale Closing Date have
been furnished to such payees, and the information set forth on such information
returns and statements is accurate and complete.

            (d) No Seller is a "foreign person" as defined in Section 1445(f)(3)
of the Code.

            (e) For all periods through and including the Initial Sale Closing
Date, the Company was classified as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes. From and after the Initial Sale Closing Date through the Closing Date
the Company has been and is classified as a disregarded entity for federal
income tax purposes.

        3.C-2 No Conflict of Interest. Except as provided for in the New
Services Agreements or as holders of Rights, or as set forth in the Restated
Operating Agreement, none of the Sellers nor any of the Sellers' Affiliates has
or claims to have any direct or indirect interest in any tangible or intangible
property, rights, or assets used in the business of the Company. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall restrict Sellers' business
relationships with talent or third parties that provide goods or services to the
Tour; provided, however, Sellers' relationships with such third parties shall be
governed by the terms and conditions of the New Services Agreements and/or the
Restated Operating Agreement.

        3.C-3 Brokers. Sellers have not used any broker or finder in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither Purchaser nor any
Affiliate of Purchaser has or shall have any liability or otherwise suffer or
incur any Loss as a result of, or in connection with, any brokerage or finder's
fee or other commission of any Person retained by the Sellers in connection with
this Agreement, the Related Agreements, or any of the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby.

        3.C-4 Imposition of Certain Liability. Sellers have not at any time
taken any action or failed to take any action, as a result of which the Company
has lost or will lose limited liability associated with the status of the
Company as a limited liability company.

                                      -12-

<PAGE>

        3.C-5 Accuracy of Statements. Neither this Agreement, the Related
Agreements, nor any written schedule, exhibit, written statement, written list,
document, certificate or other written information delivered by the Sellers to
the Purchaser at the Closing contains or will contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances in
which they are made, not misleading.

                   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER

        Purchaser represents and warrants to the Sellers, as of the date hereof,
as follows:

        4.1 Due Incorporation. The Purchaser is duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdictions of organization or

enter into this Agreement and its Related Agreements and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution, delivery and
performance by Purchaser of this Agreement and its Related Agreements have been
duly and validly approved and no other actions or proceedings on the part of
Purchaser are necessary to authorize this Agreement, its Related Agreements and
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Purchaser has duly and validly
executed and delivered this Agreement and its Related Agreements. This Agreement
and each of the Related Agreements to which Purchaser is a party constitute
(assuming, in each case, due execution and delivery by the other parties to such
agreements) legal, valid and binding obligations of Purchaser, in each case,
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
reorganization or similar laws in effect which affect the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally and by equitable limitations on the availability of
specific remedies.

        4.3 Consents and Approvals; Authority Relative to this Agreement. No
consent, authorization or approval of, filing or registration with, or
cooperation from, any Governmental Authority or any other Person not a party to
this Agreement is necessary in connection with the execution, delivery and
performance by Purchaser of this Agreement and each of the Related Agreements to

hereby and thereby.

        4.4 No Violation of Other Instruments or Laws. The execution and
delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser and each of the Related Agreements
by the Purchaser do not: (a) violate, breach or constitute any material event of
default, or result in the acceleration of any material obligation, under any
material contract, order, writ, injunction, arbitration award, judgment or
decree to which Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound; or (b) violate any

                                      -13-

<PAGE>

law or regulation of any U.S. federal, state or local government or any agency
thereof, except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Purchaser.

        4.5 Brokers. Purchaser has used no broker or finder in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereby, and no Seller nor any Affiliate of any
Seller has or shall have any liability or otherwise suffer or incur any Loss as
a result of, or in connection with, any brokerage or finder's fee or other
commission of any Person retained by Purchaser in connection with any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

                                    ARTICLE V

                            COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

        5.1 Confidentiality. From and after the date hereof, except as may be
necessary to enforce any legal right (i) in the event of a Dispute or (ii) with
respect to its ownership of the Rights, each of the Sellers shall, and shall
cause its respective Affiliates to, keep confidential and not disclose or
furnish to any other Person, and not use for its own benefit or the benefit of
any other Person (but excluding such Seller's business, financial and legal
advisors), any Confidential Information concerning the business or affairs of
the Company or the Purchaser, except as required or permitted by the Related
Agreements to fulfill its obligations thereunder. Subject to the foregoing and
except for Seller's rights as a member, or the retention of any copies or, if
required, original documents in order to fulfill obligations under the New
Services Agreements, each of the Sellers agrees that, upon the request of
Purchaser on or after the date hereof, it shall immediately deliver to Purchaser
all papers, books, manuals, lists, correspondence, files and documents (in
electronic format or otherwise) containing or relating to the Confidential
Information of the Company or the Purchaser, together with all copies thereof.

        5.2 Publicity. Each of the Sellers and Purchaser agrees that no public
release or announcement concerning this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be issued without the prior consent of the other
parties, except as such release or announcement may be required by Law or the
rules or regulations of any securities exchange.

        5.3 Indemnification Pursuant to the Subsequent Purchase Agreement.

            (a) In the event any party hereto believes that they are entitled to
assert a claim ("Claim Asserting Party") for indemnification against Launch
under the Subsequent Purchase Agreement ("Subsequent Agreement Claim"), such
Claim Asserting Party agrees to notify the other parties hereto at the same time
it notifies Launch of such Subsequent Agreement Claim. In the event Launch is
liable to all the parties hereto under the Subsequent Purchase Agreement and
Purchaser is or becomes a Subsequent Claim Asserting Party, Purchaser shall be
entitled to select legal counsel to represent the Purchasers with respect to the
prosecution of such Subsequent Agreement Claim ("Indemnification Claim
Counsel"). The costs and expenses of the Indemnification Claim Counsel plus any
and all other costs and

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

expenses of prosecuting such Subsequent Agreement Claim shall be borne by the
parties hereto (or there respective successors or assigns) in proportion to
their respective Resulting Percentage Interest Ownership (the "Indemnification
Claim Expenses"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Purchaser elects
not to become a Claim Asserting Party or fails to select counsel with respect to
any Subsequent Agreement Claim, any one or more of the Sellers may elect to
prosecute such Subsequent Agreement Claim, select legal counsel and advance the
Indemnification Claim Expenses, in which event the Seller(s) advancing the
Indemnification Claim Expenses shall be entitled to be reimbursed out of first
proceeds from any recovery or settlement with respect to the Subsequent
Agreement Indemnification Claim. Any proceeds then remaining shall be allocated
amongst the parties hereto in proportion to their Resulting Percentage Interest
Ownership.

            (b) In the event Launch asserts a claim ("Launch Claim") for
indemnification against one or more of the parties hereto under the Subsequent
Purchase Agreement ("Launch Notified Party") with respect to which the Launch
Notified Party(ies) or Launch believes the parties hereto to be jointly and
severally liable under the Subsequent Purchase Agreement or the Contribution
Agreement, such Launch Notified Party agrees to promptly notify the other
parties hereto. In such event, Purchaser must either select legal counsel on
behalf of all the parties hereto to object to, defend or settle the Launch
Indemnity Claim, if necessary ("Launch Indemnity Claim Counsel") or timely
notify Sellers of its election not to select Launch Indemnity Claim Counsel. If
Purchaser elects not to select Launch Indemnity Claim Counsel, Sellers shall
have the right to do so. The costs and expenses of the Launch Claim Counsel,
plus any and all other costs and expenses of defending such Launch Indemnity
Claim shall be borne by the parties hereto (or their respective successors or
assigns) in proportion to their respective ownership of Membership Interests
(the "Launch Claim Expenses").

            (c) In the event Purchaser fails or elects not to object or continue
the defense of any Launch Claim, any one or more of the Sellers may, at their
sole expense, engage legal counsel, object to and/or defend against such Launch
Claim and pay any related Launch Claim Expenses. In such event, Purchaser and
each of the Sellers shall be entitled to enter into individual settlement
agreements with Launch, the liability under which shall be the sole
responsibility of each settling Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be.

            (d) After the reimbursement of Indemnification Claims Expenses, each
of the Sellers and the Purchaser agree that if they receive any benefits,
monetary or otherwise, as a result of a Subsequent Agreement Claim (the "Launch
Indemnification Payments"), the Launch Indemnification Payments, shall be
allocated as follows:

                (i) to the Sellers or the Purchaser individually based on the
Launch Indemnification Payments made to such parties with respect to any
Subsequent Agreement Claim arising out of or relating to a breach of the Tax
Warranties in the Subsequent Purchase Agreement;

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

                (ii) entirely to the Company to the extent that such Launch
Indemnification Payment relates to or arises out of a Subsequent Agreement Claim
with respect to which the Company has incurred any Losses; and

                (iii) to each of the Sellers and Purchaser pro rata in
accordance with the Resulting Interest Ownership Percentages set forth on
Schedule 2.1 attached hereto (i.e. 70% to Purchaser and 10% to each Seller) with
respect to any other Launch Indemnification Payments.

            (e) The Purchaser and each Seller hereby agrees to execute such
documents, assignments, or other instruments as may be necessary in the
reasonable discretion of Purchaser to effect the foregoing distributions,
assignments and allocations of Launch Indemnification Payments and to protect
the interests of each of the parties hereto with respect thereto.

        5.4 Resulting Percentage Interest Ownership. The parties hereto agree
that upon the Closing of the Sale, the parties shall be entitled to receive the
Resulting Percentage Interest Ownership set forth opposite their names in
Schedule 2.1 upon the closing of the Subsequent Purchase Agreement.

        5.5 License Agreement. The parties hereto agree that Vans shall be
authorized and entitled to execute on behalf of itself and the Company the
License Agreement and to deliver such License Agreement to the Company upon
consummation of the Subsequent Purchase Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE VI

Mangels, Butler & Marmaro LLP, on the Execution Date, or such other later date
and time as may be agreed by the parties hereto ("Closing Date"). The Closing,
and all transactions to occur at the Closing, shall be deemed to have taken
place at, and shall be effective as of, the close of business on the Closing
Date.

        6.2 Deliveries by the Sellers and the Company. At the Closing, in

given to the applicable Seller(s) not later than the Anniversary Date;

        7.3 Indemnification by Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to indemnify each of
the Seller Indemnified Parties and agrees 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 ((a) and (b) below, collectively,
the "Purchaser Indemnifiable Claims").

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

            (b) any breach of, or failure by Purchaser to perform, any covenant
or obligation of Purchaser set out or contemplated in this Agreement or any
Related Agreement or any document delivered 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 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

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

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 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 10 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

                                      -19-

<PAGE>

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) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary,
Sellers:

                (i) shall not have any liability hereunder unless and until
aggregate Losses exceed $25,000 (from claims pursuant to Article III-A through
Article III-C), provided, however, in the event the aggregate Losses hereunder
exceed $25,000, the Sellers shall be liable to Purchaser for any Losses in
excess of $25,000 with respect to (x) any such Losses arising out of or relating
to a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Article III-B,
severally and not jointly; (y) any Losses arising out of or relating to a breach
of the representations and warranties contained in Article III-C, jointly and
severally and (z) any Losses arising out of or relating to a breach of the
representations and warranties contained in Article III-A, subject to Section
7.8(d) below, jointly and severally.

                (ii) no Seller shall be liable for Losses in excess of that
portion of the Cash Purchase Price paid to such Seller, except to the extent
that such Losses arise out of or relate to breaches of the Tax Warranties, Title
and Authorization Warranties or actual fraud by such Seller.

            (b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary,
Purchaser shall not have any liability pursuant to Section 7.3(a), unless and
until such aggregate Losses exceed $25,000. In the event such Losses exceed
$25,000, Purchaser shall be liable for all Losses in excess of $25,000.

            (c) The liability of the Sellers and Purchaser 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 or the Company (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 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) any insurance benefit realized by the Indemnified Person or the Company
in connection with any Loss suffered by such Person that forms the basis of the
Indemnifying Person's obligation hereunder.

            (d) Purchaser and Sellers agree that, subject to the provisions of
Section 7.1 and the limitations contained in Section 7.8(a), (b), and (c) above,
in the event of any Seller Indemnifiable Claim resulting in Losses from any
breach or inaccuracy in any of the

                                      -20-

<PAGE>

representations and warranties contained in Article III-A (the "Breach"), the
Losses shall be paid and allocated by and among the Purchaser and Sellers as
follows:

                (i) by the Seller or Sellers who have committed the Breach,
severally and not jointly, to the Purchaser in the full amount of any Loss for
Breaches of Sections 3.1(b), 3.2(b), 3.3(d), 3.4(c), 3.27, or 3.30(b) of Exhibit
C-1 (the "Excluded Representations"); and

                (ii) by the Sellers and/or the Purchaser, to the Company, in
accordance with the provisions of Exhibit C-4, attached hereto and made a part
hereof, for a Breach of any representation contained in Article III-A, other
than the Excluded Representations.

        7.9 Sellers Subrogation Rights. To the extent that Sellers are liable to
Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7 for any Losses arising out of or relating
to a breach of Section 3 B-6 of this Agreement ("Seller's Section 3B-6
Liability"), Purchaser hereby assigns and subrogates its rights under the
Subsequent Purchase Agreement, with respect to any corresponding breach by
Launch of a representation or warranty made to Purchaser under Article III of
said Subsequent Purchase Agreement, to Sellers up to the amount received by
Purchaser from the Sellers with respect to the Seller's Section 3B-6 Liability.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

assignment of the relevant Rights.

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

        8.3 Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be

        8.4 Effect of Investigation. Any due diligence review, audit or other
investigation or inquiry undertaken or performed by, or on behalf of, Purchaser
or Sellers shall not limit, qualify, modify or amend the representations,
warranties or covenants of, or indemnities by, the Sellers or the Purchaser made
or undertaken pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that if Purchaser
had Actual Knowledge of any breach as a result of such investigation or
otherwise, at the time of such breach, by Sellers of any representations or

Agreement, then Purchaser shall not be entitled to indemnification by Sellers

warranties made or undertaken pursuant to Article IV of this Agreement, then
such Seller shall not be entitled to indemnification by Purchaser pursuant to
Section 7 of this Agreement relating to such breach

        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.

        8.7 Interpretation. The headings preceding the text of articles and
sections included in this Agreement and the headings to schedules attached to
this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be deemed part of this
Agreement or be given any effect in interpreting this Agreement. The use of the
masculine, feminine or neuter gender herein shall not limit any provision of
this Agreement. The use of the terms "including" or "include" shall in all cases
herein mean "including, without limitation" or "include, without limitation,"
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 waiver of a breach of or
inaccuracy in any representation, warranty or covenant or of any party's rights
and remedies with regard thereto. A specific representation, warranty or
covenant contained herein shall limit the generality or applicability of a more
general representation only to the extent of such specific 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

                                      -22-

covenant was not also breached or inaccurate.

        8.9 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 any breach thereof, or the rights or
obligations of any party hereto or thereto, the Dispute shall, in lieu of court
action, be submitted to mandatory, binding arbitration upon written demand of
either 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) 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 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.

                                      -23-

<PAGE>

            (f) Selection of Arbitrators. 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 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.

                                      -24-

            (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.

                    AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

        This AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "Amendment") is
entered into as of August 16, 2001, by and between Jeremy R. Lent ("Lent") and
NextCard, Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"), with reference to the
following:

                                 R E C I T A L S

        A. Lent is currently employed by the Company pursuant to the terms of an
Employment Agreement dated as of January 1, 1999, as amended by that certain
Amendment to Employment Agreement dated as of July 20, 2000 (the "Existing
Agreement").

        B. Lent and the Company desire to provide for continuance of Lent's
employment by the Company subject and pursuant to the terms of this Amendment in
the event of termination of Lent's employment under the terms of the Existing
Agreement.

        THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

               1. CONTINUANCE ELECTION/EFFECTIVENESS OF AMENDMENT.

                  (a) In the event of termination of Lent's employment for any
reason under the terms of the Existing Agreement, Lent may, by written notice (a
"Continuance Election") delivered to the Company within 30 days after the
termination date, elect to have his employment continued and/or reinstated
pursuant and subject to the terms of this Amendment; provided that Lent shall
have no right to make such election if his employment under the Existing
Agreement is terminated as a result of his death or Disability (as defined in
Section 9 of the Existing Agreement) or as a result of a termination by the
Company for Cause (as defined in Section 6 of the Existing Agreement), pursuant
to Sections 6 or 9 of the Existing Agreement.

                  (b) The parties' acknowledge and agree that, except for
granting Lent the right to make a Continuance Election and specifying the
parties' respective rights and obligations if he does, their respective rights
and obligations under the Existing Agreement are not being and shall not be
altered, amended or otherwise affected by execution of this Amendment or by
Lent's delivery of (or election not to deliver) a Continuance Election, and that
such rights and obligations shall remain fully enforceable notwithstanding
execution of this Amendment and any delivery of (or election not to deliver) a
Continuance Election. To clarify the foregoing by means of one illustrative (but
not limiting) example, the Company retains both (i) the right to terminate
Lent's employment under the Existing Agreement without cause pursuant to Section
5 of the Existing Agreement, and (ii) the obligation to make the payments
specified in Section 5 of the Existing Agreement if it does so; notwithstanding
(x) execution of this Amendment, (y) any election by Lent to deliver (or not
deliver) a Continuance Election, or (z) the prohibition against terminating
Lent's employment under this Amendment without cause set forth in Section 4 of
this Amendment, which prohibition applies only if Sections 2 through 6 of this
Amendment become effective pursuant to Subsection 1(c) below.

                  (c) Sections 2 through 6, inclusive, of this Amendment shall
have no force or effect until and unless Lent timely delivers a Continuance
Election pursuant to the terms of Section 1(a).

               2. EMPLOYMENT AND DUTIES. If a timely Continuance Election is
given, the Company agrees to employ Lent as a Special Projects Manager. As such,

under the Securities Act of 1934, as amended or Rule 144 as promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission) merely by reason of such position. Unless
otherwise agreed by Lent and the Company, Lent shall receive his project
assignments from,

Directors if Lent is then serving as Chairman of the Board), and shall devote to
the performance of his duties under this Amendment not less than the minimum
number of hours required under applicable Company plans for provision of
benefits specified in Section 3(c). Such project assignments shall be
commensurate with Lent's skill, experience and expertise. Lent shall duly and
faithfully perform and observe any and all rules and regulations which the
Company has established governing the conduct of its business or its employees.
Lent shall be permitted to work at appropriate locations outside of the
Company's headquarters and offices in his discretion, and shall not be required
to travel on Company business.

               3. COMPENSATION.

                  (a) BASE SALARY. The Company shall pay Lent a base salary of
$12,000 per year, subject to increase from time to time in the discretion of the
Board of Directors of the Company, payable in arrears in equal semi-monthly
installments. The parties shall comply with all applicable withholding
requirements in connection with all compensation payable to Lent.

                  (b) VACATION. Lent shall be entitled to such annual vacation
time with full pay as the Company may provide in its standard policies and
practices for any other full time exempt employees; provided, however, that in
any event Lent shall be entitled to a minimum of four weeks annual paid vacation
time.

                  (c) OTHER BENEFITS. Lent shall participate in and have the
benefits of all present and future vacation, holiday, paid leave, unpaid leave,
life, accident, disability, dental, vision and health insurance plans (including
but not limited to spousal and dependant coverage benefits under such insurance
plans), pension, profit-sharing and savings plans and all other plans and
benefits which the Company now or in the future from time to time makes
available to any of its full time exempt employees, but expressly excluding
bonus, equity compensation and other incentive compensation

               4. TERM. Lent's employment pursuant to the terms of this
Amendment shall commence as of the date specified by Lent in the Continuance
Notice and shall continue indefinitely until terminated as set forth in this
Amendment. The Company shall have no right to terminate Lent's employment under
this Amendment without Cause (as defined in the Existing Agreement) or by reason
of Lent's death or Disability (as defined in the Existing Agreement).

               5. TERMINATION BY DEATH OR DISABILITY. Lent's employment under
this Amendment shall be terminated in the event of his death or Disability (as
such term is defined in the Existing Agreement). Upon such termination, the
Company, within ten (10) days following the determination of Disability or
receipt of notice of death, shall pay Lent (or his estate) all salary due or
accrued as of the date of death or determination of Disability, and all accrued
vacation pay.

               6. INCORPORATION OF EXISTING AGREEMENT TERMS. The terms of the
following sections of the Existing Agreement shall apply if a Continuance
Election is made: 3 ("Business Expenses"); 6 ("Termination by the Company for
Cause"); 7 ("Voluntary Termination by Employee"); 8 ("No Termination by Merger,
Transfer of Assets or Dissolution"); 12 ("Assignment"); and 14
("Miscellaneous").

               7. AMENDMENT. Except as amended hereby, the Existing Agreement
will continue in full force and effect.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment as of the
day and year first above written.
