follows:
2.1. Organization . Each of Borrower and
its Subsidiary, as defined below, is a corporation and limited
liability company, respectively, duly existing under the laws of
its jurisdiction of organization and qualified and licensed to do
business in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business
or its ownership of property requires that it be so qualified,
except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a
material adverse effect on the business, operations, condition
(financial or otherwise), property or prospects of Borrower or any
Subsidiary (as defined below), or the ability of Borrower and any
Subsidiary to carry out its respective obligations under the Loan
Documents (as defined in Section 2.3 below) (a “Company
Material Adverse Effect”).
2.2. Subsidiaries . Borrower’s only
Subsidiary is Diamond Concessions, LLC, a California limited
liability company. For purposes of this Agreement, a

contract or otherwise controls the management of such entity and
operates such entity as a combined business.

authorization, execution, delivery and performance of all
obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Note and all
other documents executed in connection with the Loan (collectively,
the “Loan Documents”) to which any of them may be a
party have been taken. This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan
Documents, when executed and delivered by Borrower, shall
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower,
enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their terms, except
as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’
rights and the enforcement of debtors’ obligations generally
and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether
enforcement is pursuant to a proceeding in equity or at
law.
2.4. Absence of Conflicts . The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of
the other Loan Documents is not in conflict with nor does it
constitute a breach of any provision contained in Borrower’s
organizational documents, nor will it constitute an event of
default under any material agreement to which Borrower is a party
or by which Borrower is bound.
2.5. Consents and Approvals . Borrower
has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made
all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all
governmental authorities and agencies that are necessary for the
continued operation of Borrower’s business as currently
conducted, or are required by law, including Far East National
Bank.
2.6. Capitalization . The authorized and
outstanding capital stock of Borrower is described on Schedule 2.6
attached hereto. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.6 or as
contemplated by the Transactions, there are no subscriptions,

(contingent or otherwise) currently outstanding to purchase any of
the authorized but unissued capital stock of Borrower. Except as
set forth in Schedule 2.6 or as contemplated by the Transactions,
Borrower has no obligation to issue shares of its capital stock, or
subscriptions, convertible securities, options, warrants, or other
rights (contingent or otherwise) to purchase any shares of its

securities, any evidence of indebtedness or asset. No shares of
Borrower capital stock are subject to a right of withdrawal or a
right of rescission under any applicable securities law. Except as
set forth in Schedule 2.6, there are no outstanding or authorized
stock appreciation, phantom stock or similar rights with respect to
Borrower. To the Knowledge (as defined below) of Borrower, except
as described in Schedule 2.6 or otherwise contemplated by this
Agreement, there are no agreements to which Borrower is a party or
by which it is bound with respect to the voting (including without
limitation voting trusts or proxies), registration under any
applicable securities laws, or sale or transfer (including without
limitation agreements relating to pre-emptive rights, rights of
first refusal, co-sale rights or “drag-along” rights)
of any securities of Borrower. Except as provided in Schedule 2.6,
to the Knowledge of Borrower, there are no agreements among other
parties, to which Borrower is not a party and by which it is not
bound, with respect to the voting (including without limitation
voting trusts or proxies) or sale or transfer (including without
limitation agreements relating to rights of first refusal, co-sale
rights or “drag-along” rights) of any securities of
Borrower.

any of the foregoing. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.7, there
are no unsatisfied judgments, penalties or awards against or
affecting Borrower or its businesses, properties or assets. Except
as disclosed on Schedule 2.7, Borrower is not in default, and no
event has occurred which with the passage of time or giving of
notice or both would constitute a default by Borrower with respect
to any order, writ, injunction or decree known to or served upon
Borrower of any court or of any foreign, federal, state, municipal
or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency
or instrumentality, domestic or foreign. Except as disclosed on

threatened against others. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.7,
Borrower has complied with all laws, rules, regulations and orders
applicable to its current business, operations, properties, assets,
products and services the violation of which would have a Company
Material Adverse Effect. There is no existing law, rule, regulation
or order, and Borrower has no Knowledge of any proposed law, rule,
regulation or order, whether foreign, federal or state, that would

director or officer of Borrower of a particular fact or
circumstance or such knowledge as may reasonably be imputed to such
person as a result of such person’s actual knowledge of other
facts or circumstances as well as any other knowledge which such
person would have possessed had such person made reasonable inquiry
of appropriate employees and agents of Borrower with respect to the
matter in question.
2.8. Absence of Certain Events . To
Borrower’s Knowledge, there is no existing condition, event
or series of events which reasonably would be expected to have a
Company Material Adverse Effect.

Schedule 2.9, Borrower has good and marketable title to all of its
personal property and assets free and clear of any material
restriction, mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, lien, security
interest or other charge, claim or encumbrance which would have a
Company Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule
2.9, with respect to properties and assets it leases, Borrower is
in material compliance with such leases and holds
