(iii) (A) If Purchasers and JAKKS do not accept Sellers’ computation of the Closing Purchase Price and/or the Net Working Capital Adjustment (including any figures or computations on the statement of Closing Net Working Capital and any other figures or computations used in determining the Closing Purchase Price or the Net Working Capital Adjustment), Purchasers shall give written notice to Sellers prior to the end of the (30) day period referred to in the last sentence of Section 2.4(a)(ii). Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for Purchasers’ and JAKKS’s objections to the Closing Purchase Price and/or the Net Working Capital Adjustment.

(B) If Purchasers or JAKKS do not object within such thirty (30) day period, the Closing Purchase Price and the Net Working Capital Adjustment shall be deemed accepted and approved by Purchasers and JAKKS. If Purchasers or JAKKS shall give the notice referred to in Section 2.4(a)(iii)(A) within such thirty (30) day period, the parties shall attempt to resolve the matter or matters in dispute. If the matters in dispute cannot be resolved by the parties within sixty (60) days after delivery of such notice to Sellers, the specific matters in dispute shall be submitted to the Arbitrating Accountants selected promptly by Purchasers and Sellers, which firm shall make a final and binding determination as to such matter or matters. The Arbitrating Accountants shall deliver to the parties their written determination regarding the matters submitted to them within sixty (60) days, which determination shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties with respect to the calculation of the Closing Purchase Price and/or the Net Working Capital Adjustment. No such determination shall require Sellers to alter the Financial Statements.

(C) Fees and expenses of the Arbitrating Accountants shall be paid 50% by the Purchasers and 50% by Sellers. Other fees and expenses of Sellers incurred in connection with the determination of the Closing Purchase Price and the Net Working Capital Adjustment (including the fees and expenses of Sellers’ accountants) shall be deemed Excluded Liabilities and shall be paid by Sellers and shall in no event be the responsibility of Purchasers or JAKKS.

(iv) If the Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Target Net Working Capital, then Sellers shall pay Purchasers the excess of the Target Net Working Capital over the Closing Net Working Capital. If the Closing Net Working Capital is greater than the Target Net Working Capital, then Purchasers shall pay Sellers the excess of the Closing Net Working Capital over the Target Net Working Capital.

(b) Payment of Net Working Capital Adjustment. Any payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be made in cash within five (5) business days after acceptance of any Net Working Capital Adjustment by the parties or, in the case of written notice of objection by Purchasers or Sellers, as the case may be, within five (5) business days after any Net Working Capital Adjustment is finally determined as provided above. If any party hereto is obligated to make a payment under this Section 2.4 and fails to make such payment within the time frame established by this paragraph, then such party shall pay interest at

the Prime Rate on the amount of such payment for the period from the date such payment was due through (but excluding) the actual day of such payment.

2.5 Earn-out.

(a) If Sellers and Purchasers shall earn Combined 2006 Adjusted Gross Profit during the 2006 Review Period in an amount equal to or greater than 101% of the Base applicable to the 2006 Review Period, Purchasers shall pay Sellers an amount (such amount a “Post-Closing Payment” and, together with other amounts, if any, payable under this Section 2.5, the “Post-Closing Payments”) equal to the product of (i) the Post-Closing Payment amount that corresponds to the Combined Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of the Base applicable to the 2006 Review Period earned during the 2006 Review Period as set forth on Table A of Schedule 2.5 and (ii) a fraction (such fraction, the “Earn-out Adjustment Fraction”), the numerator of which shall be the number of calendar days in the period commencing on the day after the Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2006, and the denominator of which shall be 365.

(b) If Purchasers shall earn Adjusted Gross Profit during the 2007 Review Period in an amount equal to or greater than 101% of the Base applicable to the 2007 Review Period, Purchasers shall pay Sellers a Post-Closing Payment equal to the Post-Closing Payment amount that corresponds to the Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of the Base applicable to the 2007 Review Period earned by Purchasers during the 2007 Review Period as set forth on Table B of Schedule 2.5.

(c) If Purchasers shall earn Adjusted Gross Profit during the 2008 Review Period in an amount equal to or greater than 101% of the Base applicable to the 2008 Review Period, Purchasers shall pay Sellers a Post-Closing Payment equal to the Post-Closing Payment amount that corresponds to the Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of the Base applicable to the 2008 Review Period earned by Purchasers during the 2008 Review Period as set forth on Table C of Schedule 2.5.

(d) Each Post-Closing Payment shall be made within seventy-five (75) days after the end of the applicable Review Period triggering Purchasers’ obligations hereunder and allocated between the Sellers in accordance with the formula set forth on Schedule 2.2(d). Any assignment of the Sellers’ respective rights to receive Post-Closing Payments shall be governed by Section 14.1. Post-Closing Payments, if any, shall be payable by wire transfer to Sellers or their permitted assignees in accordance with the written instructions of Sellers previously given to Purchasers pursuant to Section 2.2; provided that such instructions may be modified at any time by Sellers or their permitted assignees by delivery of superseding written instructions delivered to Purchasers and JAKKS in accordance with Section 14.2. In no event shall Purchasers or JAKKS be obligated to make Post-Closing Payments aggregating in excess of Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) and payment of the foregoing amount by Purchasers pursuant to the terms hereof shall relieve Purchasers and JAKKS of any further obligations under this Section 2.5.

(e) Within sixty (60) days following the end of each Review Period during the Earn-out Period, Purchasers shall prepare or cause to be prepared a statement setting

forth the Base and Adjusted Gross Profit, which shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with the Financial Statements, for such Review Period and the Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of the Base applicable to such Review Period (each a “Post-Closing Statement”) and deliver such statement to the Stockholders.

(f) If either Stockholder in good faith disagrees with any Post-Closing Statement, the Stockholder Representative may deliver to Purchasers, within ten (10) calendar days after such Stockholder’s receipt of the Post-Closing Statement (the “Sellers’ Review Period”), a written notice (the “Earn-out Objection Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail (i) the amounts on the Post-Closing Statement with which such Stockholder disagrees and the basis for such disagreement and (ii) such Stockholder’s proposed corrections to the Post-Closing Statement; provided, however, that such disagreement must be based solely upon an alleged failure of the Post-Closing Statement to conform to the requirements of this Section 2.5 and/or alleged mathematical errors contained or reflected therein. The Stockholders shall be deemed to have agreed with all amounts contained in the Post-Closing Statement to which no specific objection has been made. If the Stockholder Representative does not deliver an Earn-out Objection Notice prior to the expiration of Sellers’ Review Period, the Sellers shall be deemed to agree in all respects with Purchasers’ calculation of the Base, Adjusted Gross Profit and the Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of the Base for such Review Period, and those respective amounts and percentages as set forth in the Post-Closing Statement shall be final and binding upon Sellers and Purchasers. Purchasers shall, upon written request, make available to the Stockholder Representative and its agents all such documents and information in the Purchasers’ or JAKKS’ possession or control that is necessary to facilitate the Stockholders’ review of the Post-Closing Statement in a timely manner.

(g) If an Earn-out Objection Notice is properly and timely delivered, the Stockholders and Purchasers shall negotiate in good faith with each other to attempt to resolve the disputed amounts set forth in the Earn-out Objection Notice. If the parties are unable to resolve the disputed amounts set forth in the Earn-out Objection Notice within five (5) calendar days after the Stockholders’ delivery of the Earn-out Objection Notice to Purchasers, the parties shall cause the Arbitrating Accountants to promptly review this Agreement and the disputed amounts in the Post-Closing Statement for the purpose of calculating the Base, Adjusted Gross Profit and the Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of the Base for such Review Period. In making any such calculations, the Arbitrating Accountants shall consider only those amounts in the Post-Closing Statement as to which the Stockholders have, in the Earn-out Objection Notice, disagreed.

(h) The Arbitrating Accountants shall deliver to the Stockholder Representative and Purchasers, as promptly as practicable, but no later than five (5) calendar days after the Arbitrating Accountants are engaged, a written report setting forth its calculation of the disputed amounts and percentages. Upon such delivery, such report and the calculations set forth therein shall be final and binding upon Sellers and Purchasers. The cost of such review and report shall be borne equally by Sellers and Purchasers.

(i) If an Earn-out Objection Notice is properly and timely delivered by the Stockholders with respect to any Post-Closing Statement, Purchasers shall pay the Post-Closing Payment set forth in such Post-Closing Statement (the “Preliminary Post-Closing

Payment”) in accordance with Section 2.5(d) of this Agreement pending resolution of the disputed amounts. If based upon the written report of the Arbitrating Accountants Sellers are owed an amount (a “Final Post-Closing Payment”) different from the Preliminary Post-Closing Payment, the following provisions shall apply. If the Final Post-Closing Payment exceeds the Preliminary Post-Closing Payment, Purchasers shall pay to Sellers within two (2) business days after the Arbitrating Accountant’s delivery of their written report pursuant to Section 2.5(h) an amount equal to such excess together with interest at the Prime Rate on such excess amount for the period from the date that the Post-Closing Payment was due through (but excluding) the actual day of such additional payment. If the Preliminary Post-Closing Payment exceeds the Final Post-Closing Payment, Sellers shall pay to Purchasers within two (2) business days after the Arbitrating Accountant’s delivery of their written report pursuant to Section 2.5(h) an amount equal to such excess together with interest at the Prime Rate on such excess amount for the period from the date that the Post-Closing Payment was due through (but excluding) the actual day of such additional payment. If any amount payable by Purchasers pursuant to the third sentence of this Section 2.5(i) (excluding any interest accruing with respect thereto) is more than 10% of the applicable Preliminary Post-Closing Payment, Purchasers shall pay the costs reasonably incurred by Sellers in connection with such dispute. If any amount payable by Sellers pursuant to the fourth sentence of this Section 2.5(i) (excluding any interest accruing with respect thereto) is more than 10% of the applicable Preliminary Post-Closing Payment, Sellers shall pay the costs reasonably incurred by Purchasers in connection with such dispute.

(j) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if Geoffrey’s employment with JAKKS US is terminated by JAKKS US for Cause (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement between Geoffrey and JAKKS US), from and after such termination no Seller shall be entitled to any Post-Closing Payment.

(k) If the agreements set forth on Schedule 2.5(k) are not included among the Included Contracts acquired by Purchasers hereunder because Sellers are unable to obtain consent to an extension and assignment of such agreements to Purchasers and Purchasers are unable to receive the benefits described in Section 11.10 in respect of such agreements, for the purpose of calculating the Base for each Review Period, Adjusted Gross Profit for the prior year shall be reduced equitably by an amount agreed to by Purchasers and Sellers; provided that the amount of such reduction shall not be less than the portion of Fiscal Year 2005 Adjusted Gross Profit of the Company and CDI Hong Kong attributable to the products sold under such agreements during the twelve month period ending December 31, 2005. If the agreements set forth on Schedule 2.5(k) are included among the Included Contracts acquired by Purchasers hereunder but the term of such Included Contracts does not extend for the entire Earn-Out Period, and Purchasers are unable to receive the benefits described in Section 11.10 in respect of such agreements for the entire Earn-Out Period, for the purpose of calculating the Base for each Review Period following the end of the term of such Included Contracts acquired by Purchasers, Adjusted Gross Profit for the prior year shall be reduced equitably by an amount agreed to by Purchasers and Sellers; provided that the amount of such reduction shall not be less than the portion of Adjusted Gross Profit of the Company and CDI Hong Kong attributable to the products sold under such agreements during the twelve month period immediately preceding the end of the term of such Included Contracts.

(l) For the avoidance of doubt, no Post-Closing Payment or license transfer fee shall be included in the calculation of Adjusted Gross Profit.

Any access to such returns and records or Sellers’ or Stockholders’ personnel granted to JAKKS, on behalf of Purchasers, in this Agreement shall be upon the condition that any such access shall be conducted in a manner by JAKKS so as not to materially interfere with the business operations of Sellers and/or Stockholders.

11.3 Litigation Cooperation. After the Closing and subject to the provisions of Article 13 hereof, upon prior reasonable written request and with the reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses paid by the party making the request, each party shall cooperate with the other in furnishing information, testimony and other assistance in connection with any Actions, Tax audits, or arrangements involving any of the parties hereto (other than in connection with disputes between the parties hereto) and based upon contracts, arrangements or acts of any party or any of their Affiliates that were in effect or occurred on or prior to Closing or that related to the Assets, including, without limitation, arranging discussions with, and the calling as witnesses of, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives of the parties hereto.

Sellers and Purchasers shall file all required information and tax returns (and any amendments thereto) in a manner consistent with this Section 11.4 and comply with the information reporting requirements of Section 1060 of the Code and Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and any applicable foreign law. If, contrary to the intent of the parties hereto as expressed in this Section 11.4, any U.S. or foreign taxing authority makes or proposes an allocation different from that provided for under this Section 11.4, Sellers and Purchasers shall cooperate with each other in good faith to contest such taxing authority’s allocation (or proposed allocation); provided, however, that after consultation with the party adversely affected by such allocation (or proposed allocation), another party hereto may file such protective claims or returns as may reasonably be required to protect its interests.

11.5 Additional Covenants Relating to Employees and Employee Benefits.

(a) Employment of U.S. Employees. At least seven (7) days prior to the Closing, but subject to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this

Agreement, JAKKS US shall offer full-time or temporary employment to each of the individuals identified on Schedule 4.18(c) hereto (each, a “US Offer Employee”), in accordance with the following provisions: (i) the date on which the employment by JAKKS US of each US Offer Employee who accepts such offer of employment shall become effective (the “US Effective Date of Employment”) shall be the first business day after the Closing Date on which each such US Offer Employee reports to work with JAKKS US for active duty (each such US Offer Employee who becomes so employed by JAKKS US hereinafter being referred to as a “US Hired Employee” from and after the US Effective Date of Employment), (ii) the initial salary and base wage compensation payable to each US Hired Employee as of the US Effective Date of Employment shall be not less than the amount set forth on Schedule 4.18(c) for such US Hired Employee, (iii) JAKKS US shall provide the US Hired Employees with employee benefits that are, in the aggregate, comparable to those benefits provided to similarly situated employees of JAKKS US and (iv) JAKKS US shall credit for purposes of such employee benefits (including vacation and all other terms and conditions of employment dependent in whole or in part on service or seniority) all applicable service of such US Hired Employee with the Company. The provisions of this Section 11.5(a) shall not apply to those individuals who are to become parties to the Employment Agreements or the Consulting Agreement.

(b) The Company’s Obligations.

(i) Prior to Closing, the Company shall provide written notice, which notice shall be subject to JAKKS US’s prior review and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to all of its employees stating that their employment by the Company shall terminate at the close of business on the Closing Date.

(ii) From and after the Closing, JAKKS US shall be liable for continuation coverage (including any penalties, excise taxes or interest resulting from the failure to provide continuation coverage) required by Section 4980B of the Code, Sections 601 through 608 of ERISA or required by similar provisions of applicable state law with respect to (a) qualifying events incurred by any employee of the Company who does not become a US Hired Employee (or covered dependents or qualified beneficiaries of such employee), and (b) any qualifying events which occur on or before the US Effective Date of Employment incurred by any US Hired Employee (or covered dependents or qualified beneficiaries of such US Hired Employee). JAKKS US shall be deemed to be a successor employer (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-2) of the Company for purposes of applying the provisions of Section 4980B of the Code following the Closing with respect to any current or former employee of the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify Purchasers and JAKKS for any severance obligation or severance liability arising from or related to any employee who elects not to be a US Hired Employee at the Closing.

(iii) With the exception of continuation coverage (including any penalties, excise taxes or interest resulting from the failure to provide continuation coverage) required by Section 4980B of the Code, Sections 601 through 608 of ERISA or required by similar provisions of applicable state law, for which JAKKS US is liable as set forth in Section 11.5(b)(ii) above, from and after the Closing, the Company shall remain solely responsible for all liabilities relating to or arising in connection with claims for welfare benefits offered under the Employee Plans listed on Schedule 4.18(b) incurred by: (a) US Hired Employees and their

beneficiaries and dependents with respect to claims incurred on or before the day prior to the US Hired Employee’s Effective Date of Employment, and (b) employees of the Company who elect not to become US Hired Employees and their beneficiaries and dependents.

(d) WARN. Because JAKKS US agrees to offer employment to all of the US Offer Employees, the actions to be taken hereunder with respect to the Company’s employees are not anticipated to create any liability or obligation with respect to the WARN Act, and the Company will have no obligation to provide the US Hired Employees and appropriate state and local government units with notice under the WARN Act. In the event that an issue arises under the WARN Act as a result of JAKKS US’s actions following the Closing Date, JAKKS US agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from and against and hold the Company harmless with respect to any and all liability, defense costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, as well as backpay, that the Company may incur in connection with claims or litigation relating to the WARN Act.

(e) HK Employees. At least seven (7) days prior to the Closing (or such longer period as may be required under law or under their contracts of engagement), CDI Hong Kong and JAKKS HK shall jointly inform each of the individuals who is employed by CDI Hong Kong and identified on Schedule 4.18(c) hereto (each, a “HK Offer Employee”) of the sale of the Assets hereby agreed and will issue a joint letter in accordance with the following provisions: (i) giving notice of termination of his employment with CDI Hong Kong with effect from the first day after the Closing Date (the “HK Effective Date of Employment”), and (ii) containing an offer by JAKKS HK of re-engagement with effect from the HK Effective Date of Employment of each HK Offer Employee on terms contained in JAKKS HK Staff Handbook (a copy of which has been delivered by JAKKS HK to the Sellers) that have been reviewed and confirmed by CDI Hong Kong to be no less favorable than the existing terms of employment; provided that the initial salary and base wage compensation payable to each HK Hired Employee as of the HK Effective Date of Employment shall be not less than the amount set forth in Schedule 4.18(c) for such HK Hired Employee. Each such HK Offer Employee who becomes so employed by JAKKS HK hereinafter being referred to as a “HK Hired Employee” from and after the HK Effective Date of Employment. CDI Hong Kong agrees to indemnify and hold harmless JAKKS HK for any liability suffered by JAKKS HK arising out of, resulting from or otherwise relating to the termination or dismissal by CDI Hong Kong of any HK Offer Employee who elects not to accept the offer of employment by JAKKS HK.

(f) HK Retirement Scheme.

(i) If all HK Offer Employees accept the offer of employment made by JAKKS HK and become HK Hired Employees pursuant to Section 11.5(e) hereof, then (A) in respect of such HK Hired Employees and subject to the agreement of the trustee of the CDI Hong Kong Scheme, CDI Hong Kong agrees to assign to JAKKS HK, and JAKKS HK agrees to assume, all the rights, obligations and liabilities of CDI Hong Kong under the CDI Hong Kong Scheme with effect from the HK Effective Date of Employment (and for the purpose of this Section, the CDI Hong Kong Scheme shall be referred to as the “JAKKS HK Scheme” after such assignment); (B) for the purpose of the participation of each HK Hired Employee under the JAKKS HK Scheme, JAKKS HK agrees that the years of service of the HK Hired Employee with JAKKS HK shall include the years of service of such HK Hired Employee with CDI Hong Kong; and (C) JAKKS HK agrees to execute such documents as may be necessary to give effect to the assignment provided herein.

(ii) If there is any HK Offer Employee who does not accept the offer of employment made by JAKKS HK under Section 11.5(e) hereof, then JAKKS HK undertakes to establish its own mandatory provident fund scheme (the “New JAKKS HK Scheme”) by participating in a Master MPF Scheme and enroll the HK Hired Employees as members of the New JAKKS HK Scheme with effect from the HK Effective Date of Employment. JAKKS HK further agrees and undertakes that the terms of the retirement benefits provided to the HK Hired Employees under New JAKKS HK Scheme shall be no less favorable than those provided under the CDI Hong Kong Scheme. For the purpose of the participation of each HK Hired Employee under the New JAKKS HK Scheme, JAKKS HK agrees that the years of service of the HK Hired Employee with JAKKS HK shall include the years of service of such HK Hired Employee with CDI Hong Kong, and JAKKS HK shall procure the trustee of the New JAKKS HK Scheme to give effect to the same.

(g) No Rights to Employees. Notwithstanding any provision herein, no term of this Agreement shall be deemed to create any contract between any Purchaser or JAKKS and any employee that gives the employee the right to be retained in the employment of any Purchaser or any related employer. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto, and employees and former employees of Sellers (other than the Stockholders) are not intended to be and shall not be construed as beneficiaries hereof.

11.6 Delivery of Property Received by Sellers or Purchasers After Closing. Sellers agree that they will transfer or deliver to Purchasers, promptly after the receipt thereof, any cash or other property which any Seller receives after the Closing Date in respect of any Assets transferred or intended to be transferred to Purchasers under this Agreement. In addition, Purchasers agree that they will transfer or deliver to the Company, on behalf of Sellers, promptly after receipt thereof, any property which Purchasers receive after the Closing Date in respect of any Excluded Assets not transferred or intended to be transferred to Purchasers under this Agreement.

11.7 JAKKS Appointed Attorney for Sellers. Sellers, effective at the Closing Date, hereby constitute and appoint JAKKS, its successors and assigns, the true and lawful attorney of Sellers, in the name of either JAKKS or Sellers (as JAKKS shall determine in its sole discretion) but for the benefit of JAKKS: (i) to institute and prosecute all proceedings which

JAKKS may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title of any kind in or to the Assets as provided for in this Agreement; and (ii) to defend or compromise any and all Actions, in respect of any of the Assets, and to do all such acts and things in relation thereto as JAKKS shall deem advisable; provided, however, that the appointment pursuant to this Section 11.7 shall not limit the rights granted to each of the Sellers under Article 13 of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to undertake the defense of a Third Party Claim as an Indemnifying Party. Sellers acknowledge that the foregoing powers are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. JAKKS shall be entitled to retain for its own account any amounts collected pursuant to the foregoing powers, including any amounts payable as interest in respect thereof. JAKKS agrees to act in good faith in seeking to collect, assert or enforce any Action against any third party in accordance with this Section 11.7.

11.8 Payment of Liabilities. Following the Closing Date, Purchasers and Sellers agree to discharge in accordance with their terms the Assumed Obligations and the Excluded Liabilities, respectively.

11.9 Taxes.

(a) Tax Returns Through Closing Date. Sellers shall prepare and file on a timely basis all Tax Returns required to be filed by Sellers relating to the Assets and the sale of such Assets with respect to all periods through and to the Closing Date and shall pay or cause to be paid when due all Taxes relating to the Assets for such periods, and pay and satisfy any Tax liability arising under any bulk sales Law with respect to the sale of the Assets, and obtain as soon as possible after the Closing a clearance certificate from the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue and provide a copy thereof to JAKKS promptly following the Closing, except as otherwise assumed by Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Subsequent Liability. If, subsequent to the Closing Date, any liability for Taxes relating to the Assets or the conduct of Sellers and/or the Stockholders is imposed on Purchasers and/or JAKKS with respect to any period prior to and including the Closing Date, Sellers and Stockholders shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold Purchasers and JAKKS harmless, from and against, and shall pay, the full amount of, such Tax liability (as well as reasonable attorneys’, accountant’s or other fees and disbursements of Purchasers and JAKKS incurred in determination thereof or in connection therewith), or Sellers shall, at their sole expense and in their reasonable discretion, settle any Tax claim that may be the subject of indemnification under this Section 11.9(b) at such time and on such terms as they shall deem appropriate or assume the entire defense thereof; provided that Sellers shall not in any event take any position in such settlement or defense that subjects Purchasers, JAKKS or their Affiliates to any civil fraud or any civil or criminal penalty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers shall not consent, without the prior written consent of Purchasers and JAKKS, to any change in the treatment of any item which would, in any manner whatsoever, affect the tax liability of Purchasers, JAKKS or their Affiliates for a period subsequent to the Closing Date.

(c) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party to this Agreement on whom such Taxes or fees are imposed when due, but Sellers shall be

responsible for the payment of income Tax payable in connection with the sale of the Assets pursuant to this Agreement. Any party to this Agreement who is required to file a Tax Return or other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will, at their own expense, file such Tax Return or other documentation when such Tax Return or other documentation is due, and, if required by applicable Law, the other parties to this Agreement will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

11.10 Third Party Consents.

(a) The Stockholders, Purchasers and Sellers will cooperate and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable following Closing all consents, approvals and waivers which have not been obtained as of the Closing Date required by third Persons to transfer the Included Contracts in a manner that will avoid any default, conflict or termination of rights under such Included Contracts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing in this Section 11.10(a) shall require the Stockholders, Purchasers or Sellers to expend any material sum, make a material financial commitment or grant or agree to any material concession to any third Person to obtain any such consent, approval or waiver. Purchasers shall, however, pay any license transfer fees required in order to obtain the consent to assignment to Purchasers of any license agreement included among the Included Contracts that Purchasers agree to assume following the Closing.

(b) In the event that any and all consents, approvals or waivers necessary for the assignment, transfer or novation of any Included Contract, or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, or consents relating to sale of substantially all of the Assets, shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing Date, then as of the Closing, this Agreement, to the extent permitted by Law, shall constitute full and equitable assignment by Sellers to Purchasers of all of Sellers’ right, title and interest in and to, and all of Sellers’ obligations and liabilities as of the Effective Time under, such Included Contract, and Purchasers shall each be deemed Sellers’ agent for purposes of completing, fulfilling and discharging the Assumed Obligations under any such Included Contract. The parties shall take all reasonably necessary steps and actions to provide Purchasers with the benefits of such Included Contracts, and to relieve Sellers of the performance and other obligations thereunder arising after the Effective Time. Purchasers agree to pay, perform and discharge, and Purchasers agree to indemnify Sellers from and against and hold Sellers harmless with respect to, all obligations and liabilities of Sellers relating to such performance or failure to perform under such Included Contracts arising after the Effective Time. To the extent required in order to obtain a consent, approval or waiver to the transfer of any Included Contract, JAKKS agrees to pay, perform and discharge all obligations and liabilities of Sellers relating to such performance or failure to perform under any such Contract arising after the Effective Time. In the event that the Purchasers are unable to receive the full benefits of any Included Contract as to which consent, approval or waiver has not been obtained, for the purpose of calculating the Base, Adjusted Gross Profit for the prior year shall be equitably reduced in the amount of the Fiscal Year 2005 Adjusted Gross Profit attributable to the products sold under such Included Contract, or if Purchasers receive the full benefits of any Included Contract for part but not all of the entire

Earn-Out Period, for the purpose of calculating the Base for each Review Period following the end of the period during which such benefits have been obtained by Purchasers, Adjusted Gross Profit for the prior year shall be equitably reduced by an amount equal to the Adjusted Gross Profit attributable to the products sold under such Included Contract during the twelve month period immediately preceding the end of the period during which Purchasers obtain the benefits of such Included Contract.

(c) In the event Sellers shall be unable to make the equitable assignment described in Section 11.10(b), or if such attempted assignment would give rise to any right of termination, or would otherwise adversely affect the rights of Sellers or Purchasers under such Included Contract, or would not assign all of Sellers’ rights thereunder at the Closing, Sellers and Purchasers shall continue to cooperate and use reasonable commercial efforts to provide Purchasers with all such rights. To the extent that any such consents and waivers are not obtained, or until the impediments to such assignments are resolved, Sellers shall use reasonable commercial efforts to (i) provide to Purchasers, at their request, the benefits of any such Included Contract, (ii) cooperate in any lawful arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Purchasers, and (iii) enforce, at the request of and for the account of Purchasers, any rights of Sellers arising from any such Included Contract against any third Person, including the right to elect to terminate in accordance with the terms thereof upon the advice of Purchasers. To the extent that Purchasers are provided the benefits of any Included Contract referred to herein (whether from Sellers or otherwise), Purchasers shall perform the obligations of Sellers thereunder, and Purchasers agree to pay, perform and discharge, and Purchasers shall and hereby agree to indemnify Sellers from and against and hold Sellers harmless with respect to, all obligations and liabilities of Sellers relating to such performance or failure to perform (but only to the extent such obligations or liabilities arise solely from acts of Purchaser after the Effective Time).

11.11 Intellectual Property Matters. Sellers will, at Purchasers’ reasonable request, promptly perform all acts and execute all documents, irrevocable powers of attorney, certificates, affidavits, instruments and agreements, including instruments of assignment in forms suitable for recording with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, The United States Copyright Office or any corresponding foreign office or agency, requested by the Purchasers at any time to evidence, maintain, record, perfect, document or enforce the Purchasers’ interest in the Trade Rights set forth on Schedule 4.15(a) or otherwise in furtherance of the provisions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

11.12 Post-Closing Management of CDI Business.

(a) During the Earn-out Period, provided that as of the end of the most recently completed Review Period the Adjusted Gross Profit earned by the Purchasers during such Review Period is equal to or greater than the Base applicable to such Review Period, JAKKS and Purchasers, acting in good faith, shall (i) operate and permit the Stockholders as employees of JAKKS or a Purchaser to operate the CDI Business in the manner substantially similar to the manner that the CDI Business was operated during the twenty-four month period prior to the Execution Date (unless any actions undertaken by the Stockholders are unreasonable and/or not consistent with prudent business practices), subject to the other provisions of Sections 11.12(a) and (b), and (ii) make funds, personnel and resources available on a timely basis so that

the covenant in clause (i) above can be accomplished in a reasonable manner consistent with the amount and nature of same as a percentage of sales that were expended or used in the operation of the CDI Business as operated as of the Closing Date, and (iii) not take any action (other than actions enforcing JAKKS’ or a Purchaser’s rights under any other agreement between them and Sellers or Stockholders) that would have the reasonably foreseeable consequence of reducing the Stockholders’ ability as employees of JAKKS or of a Purchaser to operate the CDI Business and Sellers’ ability to receive the Post-Closing Payments, and (iv) cause Purchasers to be maintained as separate wholly-owned subsidiaries of JAKKS, which will be operated independent of any other subsidiary of JAKKS and shall only sell CDI Products. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Related Documents to the contrary, the parties agree that, to the extent Sellers have not obtained at Closing one or more consents to assignment required under any Non-Transferable Contract, JAKKS and Purchasers shall be under no obligation during the Earn-out Period to pay any consideration (whether in the form of a one-time payment, increased royalty rate or guarantee or otherwise) or make any other concession necessary to obtain the consent to assignment required under those Non-Transferable Contracts; provided that the equitable reduction in the Base prescribed by Section 11.10(b) shall be made. During the Earn-out Period, none of JAKKS or Purchasers will take any of the following actions without the prior written approval of a majority of the Stockholders: (i) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or a material portion of the consolidated assets of Purchasers other than sales of inventory in the ordinary course of business and sales of obsolete equipment; or (ii) effect any transaction that would be a consolidation or merger of Purchasers with or into any other corporation or corporations or the sale, transfer or assignment of securities of Purchasers, unless the obligations of JAKKS and Purchasers in this Section 11.12(a) are assumed by the transferee or successor or surviving entity.

(b) Notwithstanding the restrictions on JAKKS and Purchasers in Section 11.12(a), (i) each of Sellers and Stockholders acknowledge that they will work with JAKKS and Purchasers to implement reasonable operating efficiencies to the extent possible by consolidating certain general and administrative, legal, accounting, warehousing and shipping functions and overseas operations that are duplicated by JAKKS’ and/or its Affiliates and Seller’s staff; provided that the implementation of any suggested change by JAKKS and/or Purchasers pursuant to this Section 11.12(b), other than a change to outside legal or accounting firms, shall be subject to the consent of a majority of the Stockholders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (the reasonableness of the granting or denial of such consent shall be determined by whether the requested change would interfere in a material manner with the maximization of Adjusted Gross Profit and Net Sales during the Earn-out Period); provided further that the foregoing consent of the Stockholders shall be required only if as of the end of the most recently completed Review Period the Adjusted Gross Profit earned by the Purchasers during such Review Period is equal to or greater than the Base applicable to such Review Period, and (ii) such restrictions shall not be applied in a manner that would interfere with JAKKS’ ability to implement such internal controls that satisfy the requirements of the legislation known as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the term “internal controls” being used in the same manner as under such legislation, or with JAKKS’ ability to fulfill its reporting requirements under the Securities Act and Exchange Act.

11.13 Securities Law Filings.

(a) Sellers and the Stockholders shall, and shall cause the accountants of Sellers to, cooperate with JAKKS and its accountants in the provision of such information and documents as may be reasonably required in order to complete any filings required under the Exchange Act or other United States securities laws relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. JAKKS shall reimburse Sellers’ accountants for all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by them in providing such cooperation.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 11.13(a), within 45 days after the Closing, Sellers shall deliver to Purchasers and JAKKS unaudited financial statements in form and substance, and covering such periods, as may be required in order to complete any filings required under the Exchange Act or other United States securities laws relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Purchasers shall bear the cost of preparation of such financial statements; provided that if under applicable Law the financial statements to be delivered by Sellers pursuant to this Section 11.13(b) must be audited, the Purchasers shall notify the Sellers in writing of such requirement and the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be postponed to a date to be reasonably agreed upon by Purchasers and Sellers to permit Sellers sufficient time to have such financial statements audited. Purchasers shall bear the cost of any such audit.

11.14 Transfer of Domain Names. Sellers shall respond affirmatively to the request from the Registrar for the transfer of the Domain Names within three (3) business days of its receipt by Sellers, and provide all required documentation in accordance therewith. Sellers do hereby covenant and agree with Purchasers to provide, execute, or send such other information, electronic mail messages, instruments or other documents and to take such other and further actions as may be necessary or appropriate to accomplish the transfer of the Domain Names upon Purchasers’ reasonable request. Sellers do hereby covenant and agree with Purchasers that Purchasers may take control of the Domain Names immediately upon transfer by Registrar.

11.15 [Intentionally Omitted]

11.16 Company Name. Sellers expressly agree that, on and after the Closing Date, no Seller shall have any right, title or interest in any trade names, trademarks, identifying logos or service marks employing the words “Creative Designs” or “Arbor Toys” or any variation thereof or any other trademarks, service marks, product line names, trade dress or other Trade Rights included among the Assets or confusingly similar thereto. Each Seller agrees that without the prior written consent of Purchasers, neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall make any use of the name “Creative Designs” or “Arbor Toys” or any variation thereof from and after the Closing Date. Each Seller shall provide to Purchasers at Closing, for that Seller and each of its subsidiaries, a certified copy of the board and stockholder resolutions effectuating a name change. In addition, the Company shall provide to the Purchasers at Closing an executed amendment to its articles of incorporation effecting the name change, and CDI Hong Kong shall provide to the Purchasers at Closing an executed copy of the relevant forms to be filed with the Hong Kong Companies Registry to effect the name change. Purchasers shall be authorized to file such amendments on the Sellers’ behalf at any time after the Closing.

11.17 Access Codes and Combinations. Immediately following the Closing, Sellers and Stockholders shall cooperate with and notify Purchasers with regard to all source and access codes to computers and computer software that are included among the Assets and that Sellers are licensed and authorized to divulge, combinations to safe(s) included in or containing Assets and the location of keys to safe deposit boxes containing Assets, and vehicles included in the Assets, if any, concerning the CDI Business.

11.18 Guaranty. JAKKS unconditionally guarantees the full and prompt payment and performance, when due, and at all times thereafter, of all obligations of Purchasers under this Agreement (the “JAKKS Guaranty”). This is a guaranty of payment and performance and is not a guaranty of collection. JAKKS’s obligations under the JAKKS Guaranty will not be limited or abrogated by the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by Sellers or Stockholders with respect to any provision or obligation under this Agreement. JAKKS hereby waives any requirement of law that Sellers must exhaust any remedy against Purchasers before proceeding against JAKKS.

11.19 Transfer Restrictions for JAKKS Shares.

(a) None of the Sellers and the Stockholders shall, at any time prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Lock-Up Shares or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of the Lock-Up Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-Up Shares, in cash or otherwise.

11.20 Certain Events Affecting JAKKS Shares. The number of JAKKS Shares issuable under Section 2.2(c) on the Closing Date shall be subject to appropriate decrease or increase, as the case may be, if JAKKS shall at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date: (i) declare any dividend or distribution payable in JAKKS Shares and (ii) subdivide or combine outstanding JAKKS Shares.

11.21 Rule 144.

13.3 Limitations.

(a) The Sellers and Stockholders shall be obligated to indemnify for Losses (determined without regard to any materiality qualification contained in any representation, warranty or covenant giving rise to a claim for indemnity hereunder) arising out of, resulting from or otherwise relating to any of the events described in clause (i) of Section 13.1 only to the extent that the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). The Purchasers and JAKKS shall be obligated to indemnify for Losses (determined without regard to any materiality qualification contained in any representation, warranty or covenant giving rise to a claim for indemnity hereunder) arising out of, resulting from or otherwise relating to any of the events described in clause (i) of Section 13.2 only to the extent that the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds One Million Dollars ($1,000,000).

(b) In no event shall the aggregate indemnification liability of Sellers and Stockholders pursuant to Section 13.1 exceed Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000); provided, however, that such limitation shall not apply to (i) any inaccuracy, misrepresentation or breach of their respective representations and warranties in Sections 3.2 and 4.1(b) of this Agreement, (ii) any obligation to indemnify for Losses resulting from intentional misrepresentation or fraud or (iii) Losses arising out of, resulting from or otherwise relating to the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities. In no event shall the aggregate indemnification liability of the Purchasers and JAKKS pursuant to Section 13.2 exceed Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000); provided, however, that such limitation shall not apply to (i) any inaccuracy, misrepresentation or breach of their respective representations and warranties in Section 5.1 of this Agreement, (ii) any obligation to indemnify for Losses resulting from intentional misrepresentation or fraud or (iii) Losses arising out of, resulting from or otherwise relating to the Assumed Obligations.

(c) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement (whether pursuant to this Article 13 or otherwise) shall be limited to the net after-tax effect of actual damages and shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party pursuant to any insurance policy as a result of the Losses giving rise to such indemnification payment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the absence of intentional misrepresentation or fraud no party shall be held liable for consequential, special or punitive damages. In no event shall any Loss include any item arising from a liability included in the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital in accordance with Section 2.4 hereof.

(d) In the event of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, the schedules and exhibits hereto or in the Related Documents, other than the right to bring an action for intentional misrepresentation or fraud, the sole and exclusive right and remedy of the parties hereto for money damages shall be a claim for indemnification (i) pursuant to this Article 13 and/or (ii) as provided by the specific covenant or agreement at issue.

13.4 Procedural Matters.

(a) A party intending to claim indemnification under this Agreement (whether pursuant to this Article 13 or otherwise) (“Indemnified Party”) must notify, in writing, the party from whom indemnification is sought (“Indemnifying Party”) promptly after learning of any Loss, Action or any other fact which, if true, would entitle the Indemnified Party to indemnification under this Agreement (the “Notice of Claim”); provided, however, the Indemnified Party’s failure to give prompt notice shall not constitute a defense (in whole or in part) to any claim by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party for indemnification, except and only to the extent that such failure shall have caused or materially increased such liability or materially and adversely affected the ability of the Indemnifying Party to defend against or reduce its liability.

(i) A Notice of Claim shall set forth (A) a brief description of the nature of the potential or actual Loss and (B) to the extent then feasible the total amount of Loss anticipated (including any costs or expenses that have been or may be reasonably incurred in connection therewith). Payment of the amount of actual Loss due the Indemnified Party as set forth in a Notice of Claim shall be made by the Indemnifying Party no later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the date of the Notice of Claim (or such later date as the Indemnifying Party receives written notice that an actual Loss has occurred), unless the provisions of subsection 13.4(a)(ii) are applicable.

(ii) If the Indemnifying Party (acting reasonably) shall reject any Loss as to which a Notice of Claim is sent by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice of such rejection to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice of Claim. Upon such rejection, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disagreement, and payment of the amount of actual Loss shall be made by the Indemnifying Party within five (5) days of mutual resolution of any disagreement. If any such disagreement remains unresolved as of the forty-fifth (45th) day after receipt of the Notice of Claim, the dispute shall be determined by an independent third party selected jointly by Purchasers and Sellers, and the decision of such third party shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final and binding on all parties. If the Notice of Claim is determined by such third party to be proper, payment of the amount of Loss due the Indemnified Party as set forth in the Notice of Claim shall be made by the Indemnifying Party no later than the fifth (5th) business day after such determination is rendered.

(b) As a condition precedent to any claim by an Indemnified Party for indemnification under this Agreement for any Action instituted by a third party the liability or the costs or expenses of which are Losses (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party must tender the defense of such Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party in the Notice of Claim. The Indemnifying Party may undertake the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party by notice to the Indemnified Party not later than thirty (30) days after receiving notice of such Third Party Claim.

(c) The Indemnifying Party’s failure to confirm to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will undertake such defense shall be deemed to be a waiver by the Indemnifying Party of its right to undertake the defense of such Third Party Claim. If,

however, the Indemnifying Party undertakes the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will (i) at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the investigation and defense of such Third Party Claim and (ii) at the Indemnified Party’s expense, have the right to participate in such investigation and defense; provided that the Indemnifying Party will control (subject to the provisions of paragraphs (d) and (e) below) the negotiation, tactics, trial, appeals and other matters and proceedings related to such claim, except that the Indemnifying Party will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, require the Indemnified Party to take or refrain from taking any action, or make any public statement, which the Indemnified Party reasonably considers to be against its interest, or consent to any settlement that requires the Indemnified Party to make any payment that is not fully indemnified by the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, may undertake the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel of its choosing, and the Indemnifying Party in that event shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnified Party and its counsel in the investigation and defense of such Third Party Claim, but the Indemnified Party will control such investigation and defense at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 13.4 to the contrary, if both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are named as parties or subject to any Third Party Claim and either such party determines with advice of counsel that a material conflict of interest between such parties may exist in respect of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may decline to assume the defense on behalf of the Indemnified Party or the Indemnified Party may retain the defense on its own behalf, and, in either such case, after notice to such effect is duly given hereunder to the other party, the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of any obligation to assume the defense on behalf of the Indemnified Party, but shall be required to pay the out-of-pocket legal costs and expenses (such as reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) of such defense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for such expenses on account of more than one separate firm of attorneys (and, if necessary, local counsel) at any time representing such Indemnified Party in connection with any Third Party Claim or separate Third Party Claim in the same jurisdiction arising out of or based upon substantially the same allegations or circumstances.

(f) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree to make available to each other, their counsel and other representatives, all information and documents available to them that relate to any Third Party Claim, and to render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be requested to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Third Party Claim.

(g) Each Indemnified Party shall take commercially reasonable actions to mitigate Losses, including pursuing insurance claims and Third Party Claims, and shall reasonably consult and cooperate with each Indemnifying Party with a view towards mitigating Losses, in connection with claims for which an Indemnified Person seeks indemnification hereunder.

14.3 Amendments and Waivers. The waiver, amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any right, power or remedy under this Agreement, whether by agreement of the parties hereto or by custom, course of dealing or trade practice, will not be effective unless in writing and signed by the party or parties against whom enforcement of such waiver, amendment or modification is sought.

The remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction will not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties hereto will use their best efforts to replace the provision that is contrary to law with a legal one approximating to the extent possible the original intent of the parties.

This Agreement will become binding only when counterparts hereto have been executed and delivered by all parties hereto. All headings and captions are inserted for convenience of reference only and will not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision in this Agreement.

14.8 Survival. All representations and warranties of Stockholders, Sellers, Purchasers and JAKKS made in this Agreement and the Related Documents, as well as the obligations of the parties to be performed following Closing, will survive the Closing for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date; provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5 will survive without time limit, (ii) the representations, warranties and covenants contained in Sections 4.11, 4.14, 4.18, 11.5 and 11.9 will survive until six (6) months after the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitation relating to claims with respect thereto, (iii) the covenants contained in Section 11.12 will survive for the duration of the Earn-out Period and (iv) the covenants set forth in Sections 2.5 and 11.17 will survive for five months following the expiration of the Earn-out Period.

This Section 14.8 shall not limit any covenant or agreement of the parties hereto which by its terms contemplates performance after the Effective Time.

counsel, accountants and other experts incident to the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement, the schedules and exhibits hereto and the Related Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.9, Sellers shall pay all recording charges, if any, associated with the transfer of the Real Property contemplated hereby.

14.10 Interpretations. As used herein, the words “ordinary course” or “ordinary course of business” means the ordinary course of commercial operations customarily engaged in by Sellers consistent with past practices and specifically does not include (i) the incurrence of any material liability for any tort or any breach of or default under any Contract or Law, (ii) the failure to meet obligations of Sellers as they become due or payable or (iii) any actions or omissions by Sellers taken or not taken in contemplation of the marketing or sale of the CDI Business or Assets or any part thereof, or of any merger, consolidation, tender offer or other business combination involving all or any of the Sellers. The qualification or limitation of any statement made herein to a party’s “knowledge” or to a matter “known” to a party refers to such party’s actual knowledge after reasonable inquiry and with respect to Sellers, knowledge shall only refer to the actual knowledge after reasonable inquiry of Geoffrey and, with respect to matters relating to CDI Hong Kong, Geoffrey and Ho Chiu Ming. As used herein “including” shall be deemed to be followed by “including, without limitation,” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it. As used herein, words such as “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereof,” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear unless the context otherwise requires. Any reference in this Agreement to gender shall include all genders, and words imparting the singular number only shall include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires.

14.11 Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall execute and cause to be delivered to each other party hereto such instruments, powers of attorney, and other documents, and shall take such other actions, as such other party may reasonably request (prior to, at or after the Closing) for the purpose of carrying out or evidencing any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

14.12 Confidentiality. Except as required by Law, the parties hereto shall hold, and shall cause their respective officers and authorized representatives and agents to hold, any non-public information obtained from the other parties hereto in confidence to the extent required by, and in accordance with the provisions of, the Non Disclosure Agreement, dated October 28, 2003, between the Sellers and JAKKS (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). Moreover, on and at all times after the Closing Date, the Stockholders and Sellers shall keep confidential, and shall not use or disclose to any other Person, any non-public document or other non-public information in their possession that relates to the CDI Business, the Assets, Purchasers or JAKKS. Notwithstanding any other express or implied agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that each of them and each of their employees, representatives and other agents may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, except where confidentiality is reasonably necessary to comply with U.S. federal or state securities

laws. For purposes of this paragraph, the terms “tax treatment” and “tax structure” have the meanings specified in Treasury Regulation section 1.6011-4(c).

14.13 Public Announcements. No Seller shall issue, or permit any of its agents or Affiliates to issue, any press releases or otherwise make, or permit any of their respective agents or Affiliates to make, any public or other statements, with respect to this Agreement, the Related Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby without the prior written consent of Purchasers. JAKKS will afford Sellers and Stockholders a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any press release or other proposed disclosure intended to be made by JAKKS with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein, a reasonable time before such disclosure is intended to be made.

14.14 Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance. Except as set forth in Article 13, the rights and remedies of the parties hereto shall be cumulative (and not alternative). The parties to this Agreement agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any party to this Agreement of any covenant, obligation or other provision set forth in this Agreement for the benefit of any other party to this Agreement, such other party shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it) to (i) a decree or order of specific performance or mandamus to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant, obligation or other provision, and (ii) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach.

14.15 Drafting. Each party acknowledges that its legal counsel participated in the preparation of this Agreement. The parties stipulate, therefore, that the rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party will not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement to favor any party against the other.

14.16 Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed, governed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

14.17 JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY (I) IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND (II) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO VENUE IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK.
