The Term Notes Outstanding Balance is $1,838,947.61 as of May 31, 2003, consisting of outstanding principal balance of the Term Notes in the amount of $1,704,286.22 and accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Notes in the amount of $134,661.39. Interest is paid through May 31,2003. The Term Notes are currently in default and such default has not been cured by Borrower. Borrower and Guarantor are currently unable to cure the defaults under the Term Notes and have requested that Seller enter into the transactions set forth in this Agreement in part in order to allow Borrower to continue to operate and pay its creditors in the ordinary course of business. Seller has given Borrower reasonably equivalent value for Seller's Consideration. Borrower and Guarantor are not aware of any claim of ownership to or a security interest in the Term Notes other than the ownership interest of Seller. Borrower and Guarantor are unaware of any party that has threatened, asserted or claimed ownership of or a writ of possession against the Term Notes.
(f) Borrower and Guarantor hereby ratify, consent to and approve of all prior transfers, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the Assigned Loan Documents, Seller's Loan Documents, the Term Notes, the Loan Agreement or any other document evidencing Borrower's and Guarantor's obligations by and among Seller, Purchaser and/or Finova.
11. Representations and Warranties of Seller. Seller hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser and Borrower as follows:
(a) Seller has full power and authority to execute, deliver, and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and to sell and assign the Purchaser's Collateral, the Assigned Security Interest and the Assigned Loan Documents to Purchaser.
(b) This Agreement, and the documents, instruments, agreements, and assignments executed and delivered by Seller pursuant to the terms hereof, have been or will have been duly and validly authorized, executed, and delivered by Seller, and are the legal, valid, and binding obligations of Seller.
(c) Seller is the sole owner of the Tern Notes and has good title thereto free and clear of all liens and prior assignments;
12. Allocation of Collateral; Matters Concerning Financing Statements. From and after the Closing Date, with respect to the administration of Purchaser's Collateral and Seller's Equipment Collateral, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree as follows:
(a) Purchaser shall have a junior and subordinate security interest in Seller's Equipment Collateral, and in the event Purchaser comes into possession of any of Seller's Equipment Collateral, or any proceeds thereof, Purchaser shall hold the same in trust for the benefit of Seller, and shall promptly deliver such Seller's Equipment Collateral or proceeds directly to Seller, in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements affixed), until complete satisfaction of the Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note-Note A.
(b) Seller shall have no lien on, security interest in, or other claim to any of Purchaser's Collateral, except Seller's prior and superior security interest in Seller's Equipment Collateral, and shall execute such documents and instruments, including a partial release of the Mortgage, and UCC amendments, partial assignments, or partial release forms, as may be necessary to release and/or assign to Purchaser Seller's liens and claims against all of Purchaser's Collateral except for Seller's Equipment Collateral. In the event Seller comes into possession of any of Purchaser's Collateral or any proceeds thereof, Seller shall hold the same in trust for the benefit of Purchaser, and shall promptly deliver such Collateral or proceeds to Purchaser, in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements affixed).
(c) With respect to the Financing Statements as partially assigned to Purchaser, Seller and Purchaser hereby agree to the following protocols with respect to any amendments, continuations, assignments, or terminations of such Financing Statements. Each Lender shall be entitled to enter into such amendments of the Financing Statements as affect their respective collateral, without need for the consent or participation of the other Lender. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event that any filing office requires the signature of both Lenders in order to effect any amendment to the Financing Statements, each Lender shall reasonably cooperate with the other and join in such amendments as the other may request, provided that neither Lender shall be obligated to join in any amendment which adversely affects its own collateral. Any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by either Lender in cooperating with the other shall be borne by the Lender requesting such cooperation. With respect to continuation statements, each Lender shall be responsible for the filing of continuation statements to the extent that, at the time the Financing Statements would otherwise expire, such party continues to hold a lien on any part of its collateral. The foregoing notwithstanding, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require either Lender to file a continuation statement after all indebtedness of Borrower to such Lender has been paid. With respect to an assignment, neither Lender shall assign its interest in the Financing Statements unless the proposed Purchaser has first agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13(c). With respect to termination statements, upon the payment in full by Borrower of its outstanding obligations to either Purchaser or Seller, neither Lender shall file a termination statement of record unless such party has confirmed that all outstanding indebtedness owed to the other Lender has previously been paid in full. Upon the payment in full to either Seller or Purchaser of all outstanding indebtedness owed to such party by Borrower at a time when indebtedness of Borrower remains outstanding to the other Lender, then the Lender whose indebtedness has been repaid first shall execute and deliver a partial release describing all of its collateral, in lieu of a termination statement, and Borrower hereby agrees to accept such partial release in lieu of a termination statement.
13. Reaffirmation by Borrower in favor of Seller. Notwithstanding the transactions contemplated hereby, Borrower hereby ratifies and affirms all of the terms and conditions of Seller's Loan Documents, the Assigned Loan Documents, the Financing Statements, the Mortgage, the Security Agreement-Notes A and B and Term Notes, and agrees that, Borrower remains fully obligated to Seller for payment of the Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note-Note A, as defined herein.

15. Payment of Purchase Price. All payments shall be made to the order of Seller in immediately available funds without reduction, setoff or counterclaim (all of which are hereby waived by Purchaser), in accordance with the following wire transfer instructions or such other payment instructions as Seller may provide to Purchaser:

24. Arbitration.
(a) Resolution of Disputes. The parties will submit all controversies, disputes or claims among them arising out of or relating to this agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Assignment to binding arbitration as provided below. The rules governing the arbitration and all related preliminary proceedings will be agreed upon by the parties. If they are unable to agree on those rules within 30 days of written request for agreement, the Rules for Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as amended from time to time and as modified by this Agreement, will control. The dispute will be presented to a single arbitrator (the "Arbitrator"), sitting in San Diego, California. (b) Selection of the Arbitrator. The parties will jointly select the Arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after demand for arbitration is made by a party. If the parties are unable to agree on an Arbitrator within that period, then any party may request that the AAA select the Arbitrator in accordance with its then existing rules for doing so. The Arbitrator must possess substantive legal experience in the principal issues in dispute.
(c) Discovery. Any discovery permitted shall be limited to information directly relevant to the controversy in arbitration. In the event of discovery disputes, the Arbitrator is directed to issue orders as are appropriate to limit discovery in accordance with the foregoing and as are reasonable in light of the issues in dispute, the amount in controversy, and other relevant considerations. To the extent the parties are unable to agree on the scope of discovery, the Arbitrator will require the party seeking discovery on an issue to present the legal and factual basis for the dispute and will permit the party opposing discovery to respond. The Arbitrator will permit discovery on an issue only if he or she concludes that there is a reasonable and good faith basis in law and in fact for bringing the allegations and that the discovery appears likely to present substantive evidence regarding that dispute. The Arbitrator may allow limited discovery to permit investigation of some of the disputes or to determine whether a claim has sufficient basis in law or in fact to warrant further discovery. The Arbitrator, however, will issue appropriate orders to restrict the scope of that discovery. The federal or state rules of procedure and evidence will not apply to the arbitration proceedings, including the rules of discovery. The Arbitrator will consider claims of privilege, work product and other restrictions on discovery as appear to be warranted.
(d) Fees. The Arbitrator will award the prevailing party its attorney's and experts' fees and disbursements incurred in resolving the dispute and will award double costs and expenses or other sanctions to the extent the Arbitrator finds any dispute advanced in the proceedings to be frivolous or without a good faith basis in fact and in law when the dispute was first presented for arbitration.
(e) Award/Consent to Jurisdiction. Except as may otherwise be agreed in writing by the parties or as ordered by the Arbitrator upon substantial justification shown, the hearing for the dispute will be held within ninety (90) days of submission of the dispute to arbitration. The Arbitrator will render a final award within thirty (30) days following conclusion of the hearing and any required post-hearing briefing or other proceedings ordered by the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator will state the factual and legal basis for the award. The decision of the Arbitrator will be final and binding, except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 D.S.C. 1. et seq., and except for errors of law based on the findings of fact. Final judgment may be entered upon the award in any court of competent jurisdiction but entry of judgment will not be required to make the award effective. By signing below, the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts and arbitration forums located in San Diego, California.
25. MUTUAL WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL. SELLER, PURCHASER AND BORROWER EACH HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO: (i) THIS AGREEMENT; OR (ii) THE ASSIGNMENT OR (Hi) ANY OTHER PRESENT OR FUTURE INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT AMONG SELLER, PURCHASER AND BORROWER; OR (iii) ANY CONDUCT, ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF SELLER, PURCHASER OR BORROWER OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR ANY OTHER PERSONS AFFILIATED WITH SELLER, PURCHASER OR BORROWER; IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING CASES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE.
26. EXHIBITS GOVERN. In the event of the existence of an inconsistency between an Exhibit to this Agreement and the description of terms of an Exhibit in this Agreement, the terms of the Exhibit shall govern.
27. INTEGRATION. THIS AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AS TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
