Other Events
 

Consulting Agreement with Ocean Park Advisors, LLC
On January 26, 2006, we entered into a consulting agreement (“Consulting Agreement”) with Ocean Park Advisors, LLC, a California limited liability company (“Ocean Park”) whereby Ocean Park, as an independent contractor, will provide up to sixteen (16) hours per week of corporate financial advisory services to us (“Advisory Services”). In addition, Ocean Park will assist in the preparation of accounting information and financial statements in connection with an audit of Jayco Ventures, Inc. by McKennon, Wilson & Morgan, LLP (see 4.01.) for the fiscal year 2004 (“Accounting Services”). Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, that assumes responsibility for both the expense of Ocean Park, and McKennon, Wilson & Morgan, LLP to audit the financial information prepared by Ocean Park (“Audit Services”).

As compensation for the services to be rendered by Ocean Park, we shall pay Ocean Park a noncontingent and nonrefundable fee of $150,000, plus reimbursement of reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Ocean Park, not to exceed $7,500 without our approval. The $150,000 fee is payable as follows: (i) $75,000 paid upon execution of the Consulting Agreement; (ii) $37,500 to be paid thirty (30) days after January 26, 2006, and (iii) $37,500 to be paid sixty (60) days after January 26, 2006.

Ocean Park’s obligation to provide Advisory Services shall continue from January 26, 2006 until March 31, 2006. Ocean Park’s obligations to perform Accounting Services and to coordinate and oversee the Audit Services shall terminate upon completion of the Accounting Services and Audit Services. If Ocean Park determines that it is not feasible to complete the Accounting Services or Audit Services, Ocean Park may terminate either or both of the Accounting Services or Audit Services. Ocean Park’s discretion to so terminate is limited by its obligation to confer with us in the event that such termination is based on inadequacy of the consulting fees to be paid to Ocean Park. We have agreed to indemnify Ocean Park and certain other parties affiliated with Ocean Park for the cost of any legal or administrative actions arising out of the Consulting Agreement or the rendering of services by Ocean Park on our behalf.

Engagement Agreement with B. Riley & Co.
On January 27, 2006, we entered into an engagement agreement with B. Riley & Co., a Delaware corporation (“Riley”) whereby Riley will render an opinion as to the fairness, from a financial perspective, of a potential merger with an entity or group of entities in which neither an letter of intent nor a definitive offer now exists.


 
As compensation for the services to be rendered by Riley, we shall pay Riley a non-contingent and nonrefundable fee of $75,000, plus reimbursement for out of pocket expenses (including fees and expenses of legal counsel) incurred by Riley, not to exceed $10,000 without our approval. The $75,000 fee is payable as follows: (i) $25,000 paid upon execution of the Riley Agreement; (ii) $25,000 upon delivery to Riley of a formal request for such fairness opinion by our Special Committee of the Board of Directors; and (iii) $25,000 upon delivery by Riley of the final written fairness opinion.

The Riley Agreement shall continue for a period of twelve (12) months commencing January 27, 2006. We have agreed to indemnify Riley and certain other parties affiliated with Riley for the cost of any legal or administrative actions arising out of the Riley Agreement or the rendering of services by Riley on our behalf.
