If at any time LicensorFairhill intends to license, sell, transfer, assign, hypothecate or in any way convey or dispose of any of the Negotiable Rights or any portion thereof, Owner shall, before offering such Negotiable Right(s) to any other party, give Columbia written notice ("Notice") identifying the Negotiable Right(s) which LicensorFairhill wishes to so convey ("Offered Right(s)") and the terms on which LicensorFairhill wishes to negotiate in respect of such Offered Right(s). Columbia shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to LicensorFairhill within ten (10) business days following Columbia's actual receipt of the Notice, to advise LicensorFairhill as to whether Columbia wishes to negotiate regarding the Offered Right(s). If Columbia notifies LicensorFairhill that it wishes to so negotiate, LicensorFairhill and Columbia shall negotiate in good faith regarding such Offered Right(s). If LicensorFairhill and Columbia reach agreement as to financial terms, including any term relating to the consideration to LicensorFairhill which can be readily reducible to a determinable sum of money, upon which LicensorFairhill will dispose of such Offered Right(s) to Columbia, such Offered Right(s) shall vest in Columbia, and Columbia and LicensorFairhill shall be deemed to have an agreement with respect thereto on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement to the extent the same are not inconsistent with the agreed upon financial terms. If either (A) Columbia fails to give LicensorFairhill notice of its desire to negotiate within the aforementioned ten (10) business day period or (B) Columbia and LicensorFairhill fail to reach an agreement regarding the Offered Right(s) within thirty (30) days following the commencement of their negotiations with respect thereto, LicensorFairhill shall have the right, subject to Section 12.3, below, to offer the Offered Right(s) to other parties.

12.2 First Refusal. Subject to Columbia's right of first negotiation as provided in Section 12.1, above, if, at any time LicensorFairhill proposes to accept any bona fide offer to license, lease, purchase or in any way acquire any of the Excluded Right(s), which offer is equal to or less favorable to LicensorFairhill in any material respect than the last ask made by LicensorFairhill (the “Last Ask”), LicensorFairhill shall not accept such Third Party Offer until LicensorFairhill offers Columbia the opportunity in writing to match the material terms of such Third Party Offer. LicensorFairhill shall notify Columbia in writing ("Sale Notice") setting forth (A) the Excluded Right(s) that are the subject of such offer ("Sale Rights"), (B) the name and address of the offeror ("Offeror"), and (C) all of the material terms and conditions of such offer, including the financial terms of the offer (collectively, the "Terms"). During the period of ten (10) business days following Columbia's actual receipt of the Sale Notice, Columbia shall have the exclusive option ("Sale Rights Option") to license, lease and/or purchase the Sale Right(s) upon the Terms.

LicensorFairhill accordingly within said ten (10) business day period, and Columbia shall, upon payment to LicensorFairhill of the consideration specified in the Sale Notice, automatically acquire such Sale Right(s) on the Terms as supplemented by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement not inconsistent therewith; provided, however, that Columbia may exclude from the Terms and may exercise the Sale Rights Option without agreeing to any Term which may not as easily be met by one person as another and/or any term which is not readily reducible to a determinable sum of money (e.g., a term which relates to services of any particular person or entity or to any particular property other than the Picture). If Columbia fails to exercise the Sale Rights Option within the aforementioned ten (10) business day period or notifies LicensorFairhill in writing that it will not exercise the Sale Rights Option, LicensorFairhill may convey the Sale Rights(s) to the Offeror on the Terms at any time during the following one hundred twenty (120) day period. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Terms of the Third Party Offer are equal to or more favorable to LicensorFairhill than the Last Ask, LicensorFairhill has no obligation to offer Columbia the opportunity to match the terms of such Third Party Offer.

12.3 Last Refusal. Subject to Company's right of first negotiation as provided in Section 12.1, above, if, at any time LicensorFairhill receives any bona fide offer to license, lease, purchase or in any way acquire any of the Termination Right(s), and LicensorFairhill proposes to accept such offer, whether or not such offer is more, less, or equally favorable to Owner than the Last Ask, LicensorFairhill shall not accept such Third Party Offer until LicensorFairhill offers Columbia the opportunity in writing to match the material terms of such Third Party Offer. LicensorFairhill shall notify Columbia in writing ("Sale Notice"), setting forth (A) the Termination Right(s) that are the subject of such offer ("Sale Rights"), (B) the name and address of the offeror ("Offeror"), and (C) all of the material terms and conditions of such offer, including the financial terms of the offer (collectively, the "Terms"). During the period of twelve (12) business days following Columbia's actual receipt of the Sale Notice, Columbia shall have the exclusive option ("Sale Rights Option") to license, lease and/or purchase the Sale Right(s) upon the Terms. If Columbia elects to exercise the Sale Rights Option, Columbia shall notify LicensorFairhill accordingly within said twelve (12) business day period, and Columbia shall, upon payment to LicensorFairhill of the consideration specified in the Sale Notice, automatically acquire such Sale Right(s) on the Terms as supplemented by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement not inconsistent therewith; provided, however, that Columbia may exclude from the Terms and may exercise the Sale Rights Option without agreeing to any Term which may not as easily be met by one person as another and/or any term which is not readily reducible to a determinable sum of money (e.g., a term which relates to services of any particular person or entity or to any particular property other than the Picture). If Columbia fails to exercise the Sale Rights Option within the aforementioned twelve (12) business day period or notifies LicensorFairhill in writing that it will not exercise the Sale Rights Option, LicensorFairhill may convey the Sale Rights(s) to the Offeror on the Terms at any time during the following one hundred twenty (120) day period.

12.4 Continuing Right. The provisions of Sections 12.1, 12.2, and 12.3 shall continue in full force and effect so long as LicensorFairhill retains any right, title or interest in or to any of the Negotiable Right(s) and Columbia's failure to acquire any Negotiable Rights at any time shall not affect Columbia's continuing rights of first negotiation and last refusal with respect

21.7 GOVERNING LAW, LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND REMEDIES

21.7.1 THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS (AS DISTINGUISHED FROM THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES) OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED ENTIRELY IN CALIFORNIA SHALL GOVERN (i) THE VALIDITY AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, (ii) THE PERFORMANCE BY THE PARTIES OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND (iii) ALL OTHER CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

.

21.7.2 The parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time (whether or not relating to the Picture or to any of the matters referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and/or (iii) of Section 1921.7.1 above), shall be determined by binding arbitration in Los Angeles under the rules of JAMS, including appellate arbitration rules (or, with the agreement of the parties, ADR Services) before a single neutral arbitrator (“Arbitrator”). The Arbitrator shall be an attorney with at least ten (10) years experience in the motion picture industry or a retired judge with at least ten (10) years experience in the motion picture industry (e.g., the arbitrators designated in the DGA, SAG or WGA collective bargaining agreements or persons having comparable qualifications) and shall be mutually agreed upon by Columbia and LicensorFairhill. If Columbia and LicensorFairhill are unable to agree on an Arbitrator, the Arbitrator shall be appointed by JAMS. The fees of the Arbitrator shall be borne equally by Columbia and LicensorFairhill, provided that the Arbitrator may require that such fees be borne in such other manner as the Arbitrator determines is required in order for this arbitration clause to be enforceable under applicable law. The parties shall be entitled to conduct discovery in accordance with Section 1283.05 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, provided that (a) the Arbitrator must authorize such all discovery in advance based on findings that the material sought is relevant to the issues in dispute and that the nature and scope of such discovery is reasonable under the circumstances, and (b) discovery shall be limited to depositions and production of documents unless the Arbitrator finds that another method of discovery (e.g., interrogatories) is the most reasonable and cost efficient method of obtaining the information sought. There shall be a record of the proceedings at the arbitration hearing and the Arbitrator shall issue a Statement of Decision setting forth the factual and legal basis for the Arbitrator’s decision. If neither party gives written notice requesting an appeal within ten (10) business days after the issuance of the Statement of Decision, the Arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding as to all matters of substance and procedure, and may be enforced by a petition to the Superior Court, which may be made ex parte, for confirmation and enforcement of the award. If either party gives written notice requesting an appeal within ten (10) business days after the issuance of the Statement of Decision, the award of the Arbitrator shall be appealed to three (3) neutral arbitrators (the “Appellate Arbitrators”), each of whom shall have the same qualifications and be selected through the same procedure as the Arbitrator. The appealing party shall file its appellate brief within thirty (30) days after its written notice requesting the appeal

52 Formatted: Font: 12 pt

and the other party shall file its brief within thirty (30) days thereafter. The Appellate Arbitrators shall thereupon review the decision of the Arbitrator applying the same standards of review (and all of the same presumptions) as if the Appellate Arbitrators were a California Court of Appeals reviewing a judgment of the California Superior Court, except that the Appellate Arbitrators shall in all cases issue a final award and shall not remand the matter to the Arbitrator. The decision of the Appellate Arbitrators shall be final and binding as to all matters of substance and procedure, and may be enforced by a petition to the Superior Court, which may be made ex parte, for confirmation and enforcement of the award. The party appealing the decision of the Arbitrator shall pay all costs and expenses of the appeal, including the fees of the Appellate Arbitrators and the reasonable outside attorneys’ fees of the opposing party, unless the decision of the Arbitrator is reversed, in which event the expenses of the appeal shall be borne as determined by the Appellate Arbitrators. The Arbitrator shall have the power to enter temporary restraining orders, preliminary and permanent injunctions, except to the extent that injunctive relief has been waived in any agreement between the parties. Prior to the appointment of the Arbitrator or, in the case of remedies beyond the jurisdiction of an arbitrator, at any time, either party may seek pendente lite relief in a court of competent jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California without thereby waiving its right to arbitration of the dispute or controversy under this paragraph. All arbitration proceedings (including proceedings before the Appellate Arbitrators) shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of the arbitration award. The provisions of this Section 21.7.2 shall supersede any inconsistent provisions of any prior agreement between the parties with respect to the Picture.

21.8. Non-Waiver; Severability

21.9.

. No waiver by LicensorFairhill or Columbia or any failure by the other to keep or perform any covenant or condition of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other covenant or condition except as specifically provided in this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed so as to require the commission of any act contrary to law, and wherever there is any conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any statute, law, ordinance, order or regulation the latter shall prevail, but in such event any provision of this Agreement so affected shall be curtailed and limited only to the extent necessary to bring it within the legal requirements.

Columbia’s Remedies. All remedies accorded herein or otherwise available to Columbia shall be cumulative and no one such remedy shall be exclusive of any other. Without waiving any rights or remedies under this Agreement or otherwise, Columbia may from time to time recover, in one or more arbitration proceedings under Section 21.7.2 above, any damages (subject to Sections 21.11 and 21.12 below) arising out of any breach of this Agreement by LicensorFairhill and may institute and maintain subsequent arbitrations for additional damages (subject to Sections 21.11 and 21.12 below) which may arise from the same or other breaches. The commencement or maintaining of any such action or actions by Columbia shall not constitute an election on Columbia’ part to terminate this Agreement nor constitute or result in the termination of this Agreement unless Columbia shall expressly so elect by written notice to LicensorFairhill. The pursuit by Columbia of any remedy under this

Agreement or otherwise shall not be deemed a waiver of any other or different remedy which may be available under this Agreement or otherwise, either at law or in equity.

21.10. LicensorFairhill’s Remedies

21.11.

. The rights and remedies of LicensorFairhill in the event of any breach by Columbia of this Agreement or any of Columbia’s obligations hereunder shall be limited to LicensorFairhill’s right to recover damages (subject to Sections 21.11 and 21.12 below), if any, in one or more arbitration proceedings under Section 21.7.2 above, and LicensorFairhill hereby waives any right or remedy in equity, including without limitation any right to terminate, rescind or cancel this Agreement or any right granted to Columbia hereunder and/or to seek or obtain injunctive or other equitable relief with respect to any breach of Columbia’s obligations hereunder and/or to enjoin or restrain or otherwise impair in any manner the production, distribution, exhibition or other exploitation of the Picture, or any parts or elements thereof, or the use, publication or dissemination of any advertising in connection therewith.

Limitation on Damages

21.12

. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto will be liable for, or have any obligation to pay to the other, consequential damages and/or special damages in connection with the breach of this Agreement, all of which are expressly excluded, and each of the parties hereto hereby waive any right to recover any such damages from any other party hereto.

Punitive Damages

21.13.

. The parties waive the right to such punitive damages and the arbitrator shall have no authority to award such damages.

Captions

21.14.

. The captions used in connection with the Sections and subparagraphs of this Agreement are inserted only for the purpose of reference. Such captions shall not be deemed to govern, limit, modify, or in any other manner affect the scope, meaning, or intent of the provisions of this Agreement or any part thereof, nor shall such captions otherwise be given any legal effect.

Entire Agreement

21.15

. This Agreement, together with the exhibits and schedules attached hereto, constitutes the entire understanding of the parties hereto and replaces any and all former agreements, understandings and representations relating in any way to the subject matter hereof. No modification, alteration or amendment of this Agreement shall be valid or binding unless it is in writing and signed by the party to be charged with such modification, alteration or amendment.
