Producer is granted a (12) month exclusive option (herein "Option") to purchase all motion picture, television, ancillary and exploitation rights and the customary merchandising rights to the Property. The consideration for the Option is Two Thousand Dollars (2,000) and is due upon execution of this document.

Producers may extend the Option for an additional six (6) months upon payment of an additional One Thousand (1000). In addition, if the producers have obtained a development and/or production commitment, either the producers or its assignee shall have the right to further extend the option for one additional period of one (1) year for the amount of two thousand dollars (2000.00).

2. Purchase price. Upon exercise of the Option or start of principal photography of the first production (theatrical, television, direct to video), which ever occurs first, Producer will pay a cash purchase price equal to two percent (2%) of the direct cost budget of the Picture.

3. Credit. Producers agree to determine the Writers' credit using the same guidelines used by the Writers Guild of America Basic Agreement.

4. Net Profits. If the writers receive sole story and screenplay credit, the producers shall pay the writers 3% of 100% of the net profits derived from any motion picture produced hereunder. In the event that the writers receive shared story and screenplay credit, said percentages of net profits will be 2%.

5. Sequels/Remakes. Producers shall have the right to make sequels, remakes and one or more television series based upon the screenplay optioned herein, provided that there shall have first been produced a television, theatrical or other feature length motion picture under the terms of this agreement. In the event that the writers have received sole story and screenplay credit for the motion picture, producers shall pay the writers, with respect to any sequel, 50% of the cash sums paid with the respect to the first production and 1% of the net profits of such remake. With respect to a remake, 33 1/3% of the cash sums paid with respect to the first production and 1% of the net profits of such remake. With respect to any television series, the per episode royalty will be in accordance with the industry standard.

6. Short Form Assignment. If Producers shall exercise the Option, Producers shall have acquired all of the Rights, and the Assignment attached hereto shall be deemed effective, and Producer may date, detach and file the same in the United States Copyright Office. Owner will duly execute, acknowledge and deliver to Producer, in form approved by Producer, any and all further assignments or instruments which Producer may reasonably deem necessary to carry out and effectuate the purposes and intent of this Agreement. If the Option is not exercised, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and all right, title and interest in and to the Property shall remain Owner's sole property, and the Assignment shall be void.

Writers represent that they have the right to enter into and to perform this agreement and to grant all rights granted hereunder. Writers own all rights to the Property free and clear of any liens, encumbrances, claims or litigation and Writers have full right and power to make and perform this agreement.

The parties intend to enter into a more formal agreement consistent with the terms of this purchase agreement and containing such other terms and conditions as are customary in option agreements in the motion picture and television industry.

This agreement shall be construed and governed by the laws of the State of California and the invalidity and unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

Any disputes arising out of or relating to this agreement or any breach thereof will be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereunto set their respective hand and seal this ________day of January, 1998.
