  August&nbsp;9, 2007 to effect certain changes.&#160;
  In particular, the parties amended the agreement to modify the notice
  provision related to newly derived trademarks developed by the Company such
  that newly derived trademarks that incorporate the Founder&#146;s full name, image,
  likeness, photograph, portrait or signature will now require the Founder&#146;s
  consent to register such trademarks.&#160; In
  addition, the parties amended Section&nbsp;5.3.1 of the agreement to provide
  that ninety (90) days advance notice by Founder, instead of one-hundred eighty
  (180) days, is needed to effect termination under that provision of the
  agreement.&#160; A copy of the Amended and
  Restated Exclusive License Agreement, by and between the Company and Founder,

  that newly derived trademarks that incorporate the Founder's full name, image,
  likeness, photograph, portrait or signature will now require the Founder's
  consent to register such trademarks.  In
  addition, the parties amended Section 5.3.1 of the agreement to provide
  that ninety (90) days advance notice by Founder, instead of one-hundred eighty
  (180) days, is needed to effect termination under that provision of the
  agreement.  A copy of the Amended and
