SUNHAWK.COM CORPORATION, 2000
Dear Stockholder:
I am pleased to forward to you the enclosed proxy statement for the Special
Meeting of Stockholders of Sunhawk.com Corporation ("Sunhawk.com") to be held on
Wednesday, September 27, 2000, at 10:00 a.m., Pacific Time, at the Sheraton
Seattle Hotel & Towers, 1400 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101, to consider and
act upon the proposals set forth in the enclosed Notice of Special Meeting of
Stockholders. Please review and consider the enclosed materials carefully.
You will be asked to consider and vote on a proposal to approve (i) the
Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, dated August 1, 2000 and the Plan of Share
Exchange; (ii) an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to create a new
class of common stock to be known as Class A Common Stock; and (iii) an increase
in the number of shares of Sunhawk.com Common Stock available for issuance under
Sunhawk.com's 1996 Stock Option Plan, (the "Plan") from 303,526 to 800,000.
Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, all of the outstanding
shares of Copyright Control Services, Inc., ("CCS") will be purchased by
Sunhawk.com. In consideration for the shares, Sunhawk.com will transfer to
stockholders of CCS up to 1,950,938 shares of common stock of Sunhawk.com. Of
the common stock to be transferred, 825,000 shares will be delivered to the CCS
stockholders at closing, 100,000 shares of which shall be held by Sunhawk.com
pending a post-closing audit of CCS by an independent accounting firm. The
remaining 1,125,938 shares shall be Class A Common shares, which will have very
limited voting rights, and will be placed in escrow. These shares will be
released from escrow only if Sunhawk.com satisfies certain market capitalization
requirements.
Your board of directors has carefully considered the terms of the Share
Exchange Agreement, as amended, and has determined that its approval is in the
best interests of Sunhawk.com and Sunhawk.com's stockholders. The board of
directors strongly supports the acquisition of CCS' stock, the creation of the
Class A Common Stock, and increasing the number of shares available for the
Plan.
Very truly yours,
Marlin J. Eller,

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q. WHAT AM I VOTING ON?
A. At the meeting, you will consider and vote on a proposal to approve the Share
Exchange Agreement, as amended, by and between Sunhawk.com, and CCS and the
Plan of Share Exchange, pursuant to which Sunhawk.com shall exchange 825,000
shares of its common stock and 1,125,938 and its Class A Common Stock for
all of the outstanding shares of CCS from the CCS stockholders. As a result
of the share exchange, CCS shall survive the transaction as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Sunhawk.com. In connection with the share exchange, the
proposal will also approve the creation of a new class of common stock with
limited rights. This class of common stock, to be called Class A Common
Stock, shall have 1/20 of a vote per share compared to one (1) vote per
share for our common stock. Further, the Class A Common Stock shall either
convert into Common Stock or be cancelled, dependent upon whether or not
certain conditions set forth in the Escrow Agreements to be entered into
between Sunhawk.com, on the one hand, and the CCS stockholders and the
@Visory Group, on the other hand, are satisfied. The Class A Common Stock
will also have dividend rights and registration rights.
Q: WHY ARE THE COMPANIES PROPOSING THE SHARE EXCHANGE? (SEE PAGE 39)
A: Sunhawk.com and CCS are proposing the share exchange because we believe the
resulting combination will create a stronger, more competitive company
capable of achieving greater financial strength, operational efficiencies,
earnings power and growth potential than either company would have on its
own.
We also believe the complementary geographical presence (in London and
Seattle) of the two companies will provide an opportunity to accelerate the
revenue growth of the combined company and extend its position in the
digital rights management, rights tracking and anti-piracy marketplace.
Q. WHEN DO YOU EXPECT TO COMPLETE THE SHARE EXCHANGE? (SEE PAGE 40)
A. We are working toward completing the share exchange as quickly as possible.
We must complete the share exchange before September 30, 2000, or either
party may terminate the transaction.
Q: WHAT WILL BE THE EFFECT OF THE SHARE EXCHANGE ON THE STOCKHOLDERS OF
SUNHAWK.COM AND CCS? (SEE PAGE 40)
A: Upon consummation of the share exchange, CCS will become a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Sunhawk.com. After the share exchange, Sunhawk.com shall own
100% of CCS's stock and, prior to certain events described in the escrow
agreements being satisfied, the former stockholders of CCS will own
approximately twenty percent (20%) of Sunhawk.com.
Q. HOW DO I VOTE?
A. Complete and sign the enclosed proxy card and return it in the enclosed
return envelope. You can also vote in person at the special meeting. We urge
you to read this entire document carefully before voting.
Q: WHAT DO CCS STOCKHOLDERS RECEIVE IN THE SHARE EXCHANGE?
(SEE PAGE 40)
A: When the share exchange is completed, holders of CCS stock will receive, in
total, no more than 1,930,938 shares of Sunhawk.com common stock and
Class A Common Stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of CCS
stock. The Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, requires that CCS convert
all outstanding options and warrants not assumed by Sunhawk.com prior to the
consummation of the transaction.

<PAGE>
Q: DOES THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF SUNHAWK.COM RECOMMEND VOTING IN FAVOR OF THE
SHARE EXCHANGE? (SEE PAGE 39)
A: Yes. After careful consideration, Sunhawk.com's board of directors
unanimously recommends that its stockholders vote in favor of the Share
Exchange Agreement, as amended, and the proposed Plan of Share Exchange.
Q: WILL I BE TAXED ON THE SHARE EXCHANGE? (SEE PAGE 40)
A: Sunhawk.com stockholders will not recognize gain or loss for United States
federal income tax purposes as a result of the share exchange. All
stockholders are urged to consult their own tax advisor to determine their
particular tax consequences.
Q: ARE THE SUNHAWK.COM STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO DISSENTERS' OR APPRAISAL
RIGHTS? (SEE PAGE 41)
A: No.
Q: ARE THERE RISKS I SHOULD CONSIDER IN DECIDING WHETHER TO VOTE FOR THE SHARE
EXCHANGE?
A: Yes. In evaluating the merger, you should carefully consider the factors
discussed in the section entitled "Risk Factors" on page 16.
Q. CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE AFTER I HAVE MAILED MY SIGNED PROXY CARD? (SEE
PAGE 37)
A. Yes, you may change your vote by:
- filing a written notice of revocation with Sunhawk.com's Secretary before
the taking of the vote at the special meeting;
- signing another proxy card and delivering it to Sunhawk.com's Secretary
before the taking of the vote at the special meeting; or
- attending the special meeting and voting in person.
Please be advised, however, that simply attending the special meeting will
not revoke your proxy.
Q. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW?
A. Mail your completed and signed proxy card in the enclosed return envelope as
soon as possible, so that your vote concerning approval of the share
exchange can be counted.
Q. WHO CAN HELP ANSWER MY QUESTIONS? (SEE PAGE 55)

SUMMARY TERM SHEET
This proxy statement pertains to the share exchange between CCS and
Sunhawk.com, which shall result in (i) CCS becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Sunhawk.com, (ii) the creation of a new class of common stock designated
Class A Common Stock, and (iii) an increase in the authorized number of shares
available for issuance under Sunhawk.com's 1996 Stock Option Plan. This proxy
statement is being sent to the holders of Sunhawk.com common stock. This summary
may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should read
carefully this entire proxy statement and the documents incorporated by
reference, including the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, and other
documents attached to this proxy statement and the other documents referenced in
it for a more complete understanding of the share exchange before voting. In
particular, you should read the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, (and the

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This proxy statement contains or incorporates by reference certain
forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934)
and information relating to Sunhawk.com and CCS that are based on the beliefs of
the management of Sunhawk.com and CCS as well as assumptions made by and
information currently available to the management of Sunhawk.com and CCS. In
addition, when used in this document or in material incorporated by reference,
the words "likely," "will," "suggests," "may," "would," "could," "anticipate,"
"believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "predict" and similar
expressions and their variants, as they relate to Sunhawk.com or CCS or the
management of either company, may identify forward-looking statements. Such
statements reflect the judgment of Sunhawk.com or CCS management as of the date
of this proxy statement with respect to future events, the outcome of which is
subject to certain risks, including the risk factors set forth herein, which may
have a significant impact on the business, operating results or financial
conditions of Sunhawk.com, CCS or the combined company. Stockholders are
cautioned that these forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain. Should
one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results or outcomes may vary materially from
those described herein. Neither Sunhawk.com nor CCS undertake any obligation to
update forward-looking statements.
SUMMARY OF THE SHARE EXCHANGE
In the share exchange, Sunhawk.com shall acquire all outstanding shares of
CCS from the CCS stockholders. CCS will survive the share exchange as a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Sunhawk.com. CCS stockholders may receive up to a
total of 1,950,938 shares of Sunhawk.com common stock. However, of those
Sunhawk.com shares, 825,000 shares will be delivered to the CCS stockholders,
less 100,000 shares, which shall be held by Sunhawk.com pending a post-closing
audit of CCS by an independent accounting firm. The remaining 1,125,938 shares
shall be Class A common shares, which shall be placed in escrow and shall be
released from escrow only upon the achievement by Sunhawk.com of certain market
capitalization criteria within the next 12 to 24 months. No fractional shares
will be issued in connection with the issuance of either the 825,000 shares of
common stock or the 1,125,938 shares of Class A common stock. If the market
capitalization criteria are not satisfied, the Class A shares shall be returned
to Sunhawk.com in accordance with the timing deadlines associated with the
satisfaction of such market capitalization criteria. In addition to the
foregoing, Sunhawk.com has agreed to issue to various officers and managers of
Sunhawk.com, managers of CCS and @Visory, up to 2,388,083 shares of common stock
in the form of options and/or warrants, some of which shall vest upon
consummation of the share exchange and others shall vest in accordance with
Sunhawk.com satisfying the market capitalization criteria referenced above.
The Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, is attached to this proxy
statement as Annex C. You are encouraged to read it carefully.

<PAGE>
CONDITIONS TO COMPLETION OF THE SHARE EXCHANGE
Sunhawk.com's and CCS's respective obligations to complete the share
exchange are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of closing conditions.
If either Sunhawk.com or CCS waives any conditions, Sunhawk.com will
consider the facts and circumstances at that time and make a determination
whether a second solicitation of proxies from Sunhawk.com's stockholders is
appropriate.
VOTE REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL
The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Sunhawk.com common
stock must approve the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, and the Plan of
Share Exchange. Sunhawk.com stockholders holding approximately one third (33%)
of the outstanding common shares as of the record date have agreed to vote all
their shares in favor of the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, and the Plan
of Share Exchange.
All the stockholders of CCS common stock and preferred stock have agreed to
exchange all their holdings in CCS for shares of Sunhawk.com common stock and

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The board of directors recommends that you vote:
FOR the proposal approving the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended and Plan
of Share Exchange;
FOR the proposal revising the Articles of Incorporation to create a new
class of common stock to be called Class A Common Stock; and
FOR the proposal approving an increase in the number of shares authorized
for issuance under the 1996 Stock Option Plan from 303,526 to 800,000
13
<PAGE>
The reasons for the board's recommendation FOR consummating the share
exchange and creating the Class A Common Stock are set forth on page 54.
The board of directors of Sunhawk.com has also unanimously determined that
increasing the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under its
1996 Stock Option Plan, from 303,526 to 800,000, is in the best interest of
Sunhawk.com and its stockholders. Accordingly, the Sunhawk.com board of
directors recommends that Sunhawk.com stockholders vote FOR the proposal to
increase the shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 1996 Stock
Option Plan.
SHARE EXCHANGE
Under the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, Sunhawk.com
will purchase all of the outstanding shares of CCS from the current CCS
stockholders. This action will cause all of the assets and liabilities of CCS to
become those of Sunhawk.com. CCS shall survive the transaction as a wholly-
owned subsidiary of Sunhawk.com. In consideration for the transfer of the CCS
shares to Sunhawk.com, Sunhawk.com will issue 1,950,938 shares of Sunhawk.com
common stock and Class A Common Stock to CCS as set forth in the Share Exchange
Agreement, as amended. Please see the section marked "Share Exchange Agreement"
and the Share Exchange Agreement attached hereto as Annex C.
NO SOLICITATION
CCS has agreed to neither solicit an acquisition proposal from any third
party nor to take part in any discussions regarding an unsolicited acquisition
proposal. If the share exchange is not consummated because of a violation of the
"No Solicitation" portion of the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, CCS has
agreed to pay Sunhawk.com $2.5 million in liquidated damages. Please see the
section marked "Share Exchange Agreement," and the Share Exchange Agreement
attached hereto as Annex C.
TERMINATION
In certain circumstances, the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, may be
terminated by either or both of the parties. In certain circumstances, the
termination of the agreement could result in a payment of $2.5 million to
Sunhawk.com. See the section marked "Share Exchange Agreement," and the Share
Exchange Agreement attached hereto as Annex C.
INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS
Immediately after the closing of the share exchange transaction David Powell
and Julian Searle shall serve, respectively, as Vice President and Chief
Technology Officer of CCS, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sunhawk.com. Paul
Bandrowski, David Powell and a nominee to be approved by Sunhawk.com shall be

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SHARE EXCHANGE
We have structured the share exchange so that, in general, neither
Sunhawk.com nor Sunhawk.com's stockholders will have any United States federal
income tax consequence.
ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF THE SHARE EXCHANGE
Sunhawk.com intends to account for the share exchange as a "purchase" for
financial accounting purposes, in accordance with United States generally
accepted accounting principles. As a result, a significant amount of goodwill is
expected to be created, which will be amortized as an expense over 20 years.

<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
The Share Exchange involves a high degree of risk. By voting in favor of the
Share Exchange, current Sunhawk.com stockholders will face dilution of their
ownership interest in Sunhawk.com. In addition to the other information
contained in this proxy statement, you should carefully consider all of the
following risk factors relating to the proposed share exchange.
FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE SHARE EXCHANGE COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE MARKET PRICE
OF SUNHAWK.COM COMMON STOCK.
If the share exchange is not completed for any reason, Sunhawk.com will be
subject to a number of material risks, including:
- the market price of Sunhawk.com common stock may decline to the extent
that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the share
exchange will be completed;
- costs related to the share exchange, such as legal and accounting fees,
must be paid even if the share exchange is not completed;
- benefits that the companies expect to realize from the share exchange,
such as the potentially enhanced financial and competitive position of the
combined company, would not be realized; and
- the diversion of management attention from day-to-day business, and the
potential to disrupt employees and relationships with customers and
suppliers during the period before consummation of the share exchange, may
affect the financial and market position of Sunhawk.com.
CCS HAS A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY
CCS was incorporated in August, 1999. The operations of CCS are in its
subsidiary, Chinerose Limited, which was incorporated in the United Kingdom in
June 1998. Accordingly, CCS has a limited operating history upon which you can
evaluate its business and prospects, which makes it difficult to forecast our
future operating results. You must consider our business in light of the risks,
uncertainties and problems frequently encountered by companies with limited
operating histories.
CCS DEPENDS UPON INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND RISKS HAVING ITS RIGHTS
INFRINGED UPON
CCS considers patents, trademarks, trade secrets and similar intellectual
property to be a valuable part of its business. To protect its intellectual
property rights, CCS relies, and will rely upon the issuance of any patents,
copyright, trademark, patent and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality
agreements with employees and consultants. There can be no assurance that our
use of these contracts and CCS's intellectual property rights will not infringe
upon the rights of others. It is possible that others will develop and patent
technologies that are similar or superior to CCS's. There can be no assurance
that third parties will not claim infringement by CCS with respect to others'
current or future intellectual property rights or trade secrets. It is also
possible that third parties will obtain and use CCS's technology without
authorization.
IF CCS FAILS TO CAPTURE SUFFICIENT LEVELS OF REPEAT CUSTOMERS, BUSINESS AND NET
REVENUES WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED
Currently CCS has contracts for copyright control services with a certain
number of customers. If the CCS customers should fail to renew their contracts
with CCS or should CCS fail to capture a sufficient number of new customers,
both CCS and Sunhawk.com could suffer losses.
16
<PAGE>
CCS MAY FAIL TO ADEQUATELY PREDICT TECHNOLOGY TRENDS
We believe that digital rights management is an extremely important and
growing area of business on the internet. We believe that CCS and Sunhawk.com
will be able to provide a strong solution in the form of its services and
product being able to minimize the business losses caused by pirating. However,
the use of the internet could change or alternative processes for controlling
pirating could come to market, thereby rendering the Sunhawk.com and CCS
services and contemplated anti-piracy products obsolete. If Sunhawk.com or CCS
fails to accurately predict these types of technology trends or any other
numerous number of technology trends that could effect Sunhawk.com's and CCS's
business, Sunhawk.com and CCS could be exposed to substantial risk and losses.
IN THE FUTURE CCS MAY FACE POTENTIAL CLAIMS FOR LIABILITY OR ADVERSE PUBLICITY
Due to the nature of CCS's business, CCS expects that from time to time
litigation will be commenced against it. However, although CCS expects to
triumph in the majority of actions against it, it is impossible to predict the
nature, extent or outcome of any action against it. In addition, even if CCS is
in the right, there is no guarantee that CCS or Sunhawk.com will have sufficient
liquid capital to pay the fees and costs associated with drawn-out complex
litigation.
THE INTRODUCTIONS PROPOSED TO BE MADE BY @VISORY MAY NOT LEAD TO SIGNIFICANTLY
INCREASED BUSINESS
Part of the resulting benefit to Sunhawk.com from the share exchange
transaction proposed in this proxy statement is expected to come from a
strategic alliance with @Visory. Through this strategic alliance, Sunhawk.com
hopes to gain access to numerous contacts and customers in both (i) the area of
digital rights management and rights tracking, and (ii) financing and
investment. However, there are no guarantees that any introduction made by
@Visory will lead to any fruitful business relationships. If Sunhawk.com and CCS
fail to generate new customers, strategic alliances, and investment
relationships in the short term, Sunhawk.com's business could be dramatically
hurt and Sunhawk.com could suffer severe losses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND LIQUIDITY
BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
Copyright Control Services, Inc. (CCS) was incorporated in the state of
Delaware on August 27, 1999. On October 4, 1999 CCS exchanged one share of its
common stock for 2.775 shares of common stock in Chinerose Limited t/a/
Copyright Control Services (Chinerose), a private company with limited liability
registered in England, whereupon Chinerose became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
CCS. CCS contracts with companies owning intellectual digital content to provide
security services and protection solutions.
LIQUIDITY
At June 30, 2000, CCS had no cash available to fund operations. For the six
months ended June 30, 2000, CCS recorded a net loss of $261,639, and had an
accumulated deficit of $703,485. These factors raise substantial doubt about
CCS' ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
On July 3, 2000 CCS received additional equity financing of $903,050, net of
financing costs. Management believes this amount will be sufficient to operate
CCS until the closing of the Shares Exchange Agreement with Sunhawk.com.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to seven years.
ACCOUNTING FOR FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND TRANSACTIONS
CCS' balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of
exchange in effect at the balance sheet dates. The resulting translation
adjustment is recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity.
Revenues, costs and expenses of CCS are translated into U.S. dollars at the
average rate of exchange in effect during each reporting period. All other
foreign transaction gains and losses are included in the results of operations.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue from contracts is recorded when services have been provided.
INCOME TAXES
Provision is made at current rates for taxation deferred in respect of all
material timing differences except to the ext that, in the opinion of the
directors, there is reasonable probability that the liability will not arise in
the foreseeable future.

1,131,350 shares of CCS's common stock with exercise expiration dates ranging
from March 2010 to April 2010. All warrants are fully exercisable at prices
ranging from $0.02 to $0.38 per share. The fair value of the warrants is

nonstatutory stock options to any former, current, or future employees,
officers, directors, agents or consultants, including members of technical
advisory boards, and any independent contractors of CCS. Generally, stock
compensation, if any, is measured as the difference between the exercise price
of a stock option and the fair market value of CCS' stock at the date of grant,
which is then amortized over the related service period. Options are granted
with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the
date of the grant, as determined by CCS. Options vest over a five-year period
and expire ten years from the date of grant.

options were exercisable.
CCS applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related
interpretations in accounting for its stock option plan. Accordingly, no
compensation cost has been recognized for its stock options issued to employees
in the accompanying financial statements because the fair value of the
underlying common stock equals the exercise price of the stock options granted.

based on the fair value at the grant dates for options granted in 2000 and 1999,
consistent with the fair value method of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, CCS' net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2000, and

OVERVIEW
On August 1, 2000, Sunhawk.com entered into an agreement to acquire
Copyright Control Services, Inc. (CCS) in a transaction to be accounted for
under the purchase method of accounting. The terms of the Share Exchange
agreement require Sunhawk.com to issue that number of Sunhawk.com common stock
determined by mutual agreement of the CCS shareholders prior to closing for each
of the shares of CCS' common stock issued and outstanding as of the effective
time of the agreement.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated balance
sheet assumes that the merger took place as of June 30, 2000. The unaudited pro
forma combined condensed consolidated balance sheet combines the unaudited
balance sheet of Sunhawk.com as of June 30, 2000, and the unaudited consolidated
balance sheet of CCS as of June 30, 2000.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated
statements of operations present (i) the results of operations of Sunhawk.com
for the year ended September 30, 1999, combined with the consolidated statement
of operations of CCS for the four month period ended December 31, 1999, and
(ii) the unaudited results of operations for Sunhawk.com for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2000, combined with the unaudited consolidated results of
operations for CCS for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000. The unaudited
pro forma combined condensed consolidated statements of operations give effect
to the merger as if it had occurred as of January 1, 2000.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated balance sheet and
combined condensed consolidated statements of operations are not necessarily
indicative of the financial position and operating results that would have been
achieved had the transaction been in effect as of the dates indicated and should
not be construed as being a representation of financial position or future
operating results of the combined companies.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial
information should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and related notes of Sunhawk.com, which are incorporated by reference.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION
On August 1, 2000, Sunhawk.com and CCS entered into a definitive shares
exchange agreement that provides for the acquisition of CCS by Sunhawk.com.
Under the terms of the agreement, Sunhawk.com will issue 1.9 million shares of
Sunhawk.com common stock to CCS stockholders under the terms of the Share
Exchange as of the date of the closing of the shares exchange agreement.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements
give effect to the proposed merger of Sunhawk.com and CCS using the purchase
method of accounting. Under this method, the aggregate purchase price is
allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated
fair values. The pro forma adjustments are preliminary and are based on
management's estimates of the value of the tangible and intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of the purchase price to the
respective assets and liabilities acquired is preliminary and subject to the
completion of a study to allocate the purchase price and finalize appropriate
accruals. This allocation should be completed soon after the consummation of the
transaction. Accordingly, the information presented herein may differ from the
final purchase price allocation; however, the allocations are not expected to
differ materially from the preliminary amounts.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated balance sheet
assumes that the merger took place as of June 30, 2000. The unaudited pro forma
combined condensed consolidated balance sheet combines the unaudited balance
sheet of Sunhawk.com as of June 30, 2000, and the unaudited consolidated balance
sheet of CCS as of June 30, 2000.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated statements of
operations present the results of operations of Sunhawk.com for: (i) the year
ended September 30, 1999, combined with the consolidated statement of operations
of CCS for the four month period ended December 31, 1999, and: (ii) the
unaudited results of operations for Sunhawk.com for the six month period ended
June 30, 2000, combined with the unaudited consolidated results of operations
for CCS for the six month period ended June 30, 2000. The unaudited pro forma
combined condensed consolidated statements of operations give effect to the
merger as if it had occurred as of January 1, 2000.
The total purchase price of the CCS merger is estimated as follows:

CCS's tangible and specific intangible assets will be identified and valued.
The related amortization of the identifiable intangible assets is reflected as a
pro forma adjustment to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated
statements of operations. The identifiable intangible assets include existing
intellectual property and workforce-in-place.
The majority of acquired intellectual property relates to the anti-piracy
tracking processes. The acquired workforce in place consists of technology,
marketing, tracing operatives, and general and administrative personnel.
2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
Sunhawk.com's unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial
statements give effect to the allocation of the total purchase price to the
assets and liabilities of CCS, based on their respective fair market values and
to the amortization of the fair value over the respective useful lives. The
following pro forma adjustments have been made to the unaudited pro forma
combined condensed consolidated financial statements:
(A) To record the estimated fair value on intangible assets resulting from
the merger including:

(B) To record an estimated liability for Sunhawk.com's merger related
transaction costs and costs for renegotiating or terminating vehicle, marketing
and equipment agreements.
(C) To record the anticipated value of approximately 1,950,938 shares of
Sunhawk.com's common stock valued at $31,458,875 offset by stock issuance costs
incurred by Sunhawk.com.
(D) To eliminate the historical common stock amount and additional
paid-in-capital of CCS and to eliminate the historical accumulated deficit and
accumulated other comprehensive loss of CCS.
(E) To reclassify amounts to conform to the Sunhawk.com financial statement
presentation for similar amounts.
(F) To record the amortization of goodwill and other identified intangible
assets related to the merger as if the transaction had occurred on January 1,
2000. Goodwill is amortized over twenty years and other intangibles are
amortized over 36 months.

3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 1999 the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, which
summarizes certain of the staff's views in applying generally accepted
accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. Based on
32
<PAGE>
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)
these guidelines, revenue should not be recognized until it is realized or
realizable and earned. Sunhawk.com and CCS will adopt this statement in the
first fiscal quarter of its fiscal year ended September 30, 2001. Management
does not expect any material impact as a result of adopting the guidelines of
this standard.
In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock
Compensation (FIN 44), that clarifies guidance for certain issues related to the
application of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB
25). The new guidance under FIN 44 would not have impacted Sunhawk.com's
historical accounting for equity instruments and neither company believes that
FIN 44 will have an impact on accounting for future equity instruments.

COMPARATIVE PER SHARE DATA
The following table reflects (a) the historical net loss and book value per
share of Sunhawk.com common stock and the historical net loss and book value per
share of CCS common stock in comparison with the unaudited pro forma net loss
and book value per share after giving effect to Sunhawk.com's proposed merger
with CCS, and (b) the equivalent historical net loss and book value per share
attributable to 1.07605 shares of Sunhawk.com common stock which will be
received for each share of CCS common stock.
The historical book value per share is computed by dividing stockholders'
equity as of June 30, 2000 by the actual common stock outstanding. The pro forma
per share loss from continuing operations is computed by dividing the pro forma
loss from continuing operations by the pro forma weighted average number of
shares outstanding, assuming Sunhawk.com had merged with CCS at the beginning of
the earliest period presented. The pro forma combined book value per share is
computed by dividing total pro forma stockholders' equity by the pro forma
number of common shares outstanding at June 30, 2000, assuming the merger had
occurred on that date. The Sunhawk.com equivalent pro forma combined per share
amounts are calculated by multiplying the Sunhawk.com pro forma combined per
share amounts by the exchange ratio of 1.07605.
The following information should be read in conjunction with the separate
audited historical financial statements and related notes of Sunhawk.com and
CCS, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial
information and related notes of Sunhawk.com and the selected historical and
selected unaudited pro forma financial data included elsewhere in this joint
proxy statement/prospectus. The pro forma information is presented for
illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating
results or financial position that would have occurred if the merger of CCS had
been consummated as of the beginning of the earliest period presented, nor is it
necessarily indicative of the future operating results or financial position of
the combined company.

Sunhawk.com stockholders are advised to obtain current market quotations for
Sunhawk.com common stock. No assurance can be given as to the market prices of
Sunhawk.com common stock or as to the market price of Sunhawk.com common stock
at any time after merger. In the event the market price of Sunhawk.com common
stock decreases or increases prior to the consummation of the acquisition, the
value of the Sunhawk.com common stock to be exchanged in the acquisition for CCS
common stock would correspondingly decrease or increase.
DIVIDENDS
Neither Sunhawk.com nor CCS has ever declared or paid cash dividends on its
capital stock. Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, both Sunhawk.com and CCS
has agreed not to pay cash dividends pending the consummation of merger, without
the written consent of the other. If the acquisition is not consummated, the
Sunhawk.com board anticipates that it would continue its policy of retaining any
and all earnings to finance the expansion of its business. Sunhawk.com expects
to retain any and all earnings for use in the operation and expansion of its
business and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends before or after the
acquisition.

THE SPECIAL MEETING
GENERAL
This proxy statement is being furnished to stockholders as part of the
solicitation of proxies by the board of directors for use at the special meeting
of stockholders of Sunhawk.com to be held on Wednesday, September 27, 2000, at
the Sheraton Seattle Hotel & Towers, 1400 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101,
commencing at 10:00 a.m., Pacific Time, and at any adjournment or postponement
thereof.
At the special meeting, stockholders will consider and vote:
- on a proposal to approve the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, by and
among Sunhawk.com and CCS;
- on a proposal to approve the creation and issuance of 1,125,938 shares of
a new class of stock to be called "Class A Common Stock"; and
- on a proposal to increase the number of shares of Sunhawk.com common stock
available for issuance under its 1996 Stock Option Plan from 303,526 to
800,000.
- to transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting or
any adjournment or postponement thereof.
Each copy of this proxy statement is accompanied by a proxy card for use at
the special meeting. The board of directors recommends that you vote FOR each of
the above proposals.
RECORD DATE AND QUORUM REQUIREMENTS
Sunhawk.com has fixed August 15, 2000 as the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the special
meeting. Accordingly, only stockholders of record at the close of business on
August 15, 2000, will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the special
meeting. Each share is entitled to one vote, which may be cast either in person
or by properly executed proxy, at the special meeting. As of August 15, 2000,
there were 3,010,865 common shares outstanding.
In order for the meeting to be considered a valid meeting of the
stockholders, a quorum must exist. For a quorum to exist, shares representing a
minimum of 1,505,433 outstanding shares of common stock must attend the meeting
either in person or by proxy.
VOTE REQUIRED
The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the special meeting
is required to approve the proposal.
Shares represented in person or by proxy will be counted for the purpose of
determining whether a quorum is present at the special meeting. Shares held by
stockholders who abstain from voting will be treated as shares that are present
and entitled to vote at the special meeting for the purpose of determining
whether a quorum exists, but will not be counted as votes cast on the proposal.
Brokers who hold shares in nominee or "street name" for customers who are the
beneficial owners of those shares are prohibited from giving a proxy to vote
shares held for those customers with respect to the matters to be voted upon at
the special meeting unless they receive specific instructions from those
customers. Shares represented by proxies returned by a broker holding those
shares in "street name" will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a
quorum exists, even if those shares are not voted in matters when discretionary
voting by the broker is not allowed. These shares are known as broker non-votes.
36
<PAGE>
VOTING AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES
If the enclosed proxy is executed and returned to Sunhawk.com, the persons
named in it will vote the common shares represented by that proxy at the special
meeting. When a choice has been specified in the proxy, the common shares
represented thereby will be voted in accordance with that specification at the
special meeting. If no specification is made, those shares will be voted at the
special meeting FOR the approval of the share exchange, creation of the class A
common stock and an increase in the number of common shares authorized for
issuance under Sunhawk.com's 1996 Stock Option Plan.
If any other matters are properly presented for consideration at the special
meeting, including, among other things, a motion to adjourn the meeting to
another time or place (including, without limitation, for the purpose of
soliciting additional proxies), the persons named in the enclosed proxy and
acting thereunder will have discretion to vote on those matters in accordance
with their best judgment (unless authorization to use that discretion is
withheld). Sunhawk.com is not aware of any matters expected to be presented at
the meeting other than as described in the Notice of Special Meeting of
Stockholders.
Execution of the enclosed proxy will not affect your right to attend the
special meeting or to vote in person. However, your presence at the special
meeting alone, without further action, will not revoke your proxy. You may
revoke your proxy by:
- filing a written notice of revocation bearing a later date than the proxy
with the Secretary of Sunhawk.com before the taking of the vote at the
special meeting;
- duly executing a later-dated proxy relating to the same shares and
delivering it to the Secretary of Sunhawk.com before the taking of the
vote at the special meeting; or
- attending the special meeting and voting your shares in person.
In order to vote in person at the special meeting, you must attend the
meeting and cast your votes in accordance with the voting procedures established
for the meeting. Any written notice of revocation or subsequent proxy should be

THE SHARE EXCHANGE
BACKGROUND OF THE SHARE EXCHANGE
In early April, 2000, Sunhawk.com and CCS entered into discussions regarding
the possibility of Sunhawk.com acquiring CCS. After some consideration regarding
the synergies that could be generated by an acquisition and having agreed in
principle to the terms of an acquisition, Sunhawk.com's board of directors
agreed that Sunhawk.com should enter into a non-binding letter of intent with
CCS, which it did on April 14, 2000.
Sunhawk.com proceeded to perform due diligence on CCS and during the week of
May 21, 2000 to May 27, 2000, sent a team of Sunhawk.com representatives,
including Sunhawk.com's CFO, Tricia Parks-Holbrook, to London to investigate
CCS, and its books and records.
On or about May 15th, 2000, CCS informed Sunhawk.com that certain principals
of @Visory had showed an interest in working with CCS, supplying CCS with
certain business and financial assistance, thereby increasing CCS's value. As a
result, Sunhawk.com and CCS entered into further negotiations which resulted in
an agreement that provided additional consideration to CCS and the @Visory
Group. The parties memorialized this agreement by drafting Amendment #1 to the
Letter of Intent, dated June 13th, 2000. This agreement was likewise approved by
Sunhawk.com's board of directors prior to its execution.
On May 31, 2000, the findings of the due diligence trip were presented to
the board of directors. At this time, the board also reviewed certain of the
proposed terms that were to be incorporated into Amendment No. 1 to the Letter
of Intent and engaged in various discussions with Mr. Paul Bandrowski and
Mr. Duncan Shaw of the @Visory Group and analyzed the anticipated benefits to be
derived from the involvement of Bandrowski and Shaw in connection with the
acquisition of CCS.
Sunhawk.com continued to perform its due diligence upon CCS and commenced
drafting an asset purchase agreement, which was first circulated on July 2nd,
2000.
Negotiations in connection with the asset purchase agreement and further due
diligence continued.
On or about July 15th, 2000, CCS informed Sunhawk.com that, due to the
structure of the acquisition, there were considerable negative tax consequences
for the stockholders of CCS. CCS requested that the asset purchase agreement be
redrafted as a Share Exchange Agreement, which would have substantially fewer
negative tax consequences for the CCS stockholders.
Upon consideration of the relatively few potential disadvantages to
Sunhawk.com to change the form of the transaction to a share exchange,
Sunhawk.com agreed.
On or about July 20th, 2000, CCS delivered to Sunhawk.com a draft of a Share
Exchange Agreement, as amended.
After considerable negotiation and revision between and by representatives
of Sunhawk.com and CCS, the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement were
finalized.
On August 1st, 2000, the Share Exchange Agreement, was signed by Marlin
Eller, CEO of Sunhawk.com and the stockholders of CCS.
38
<PAGE>
On August 1st, 2000, Sunhawk.com's board of directors ratified the Share
Exchange Agreement, as amended, and made a recommendation to Sunhawk.com's
stockholders that they approve the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended.
SUNHAWK.COM'S REASON FOR THE SHARE EXCHANGE
Sunhawk.com believes that there is a very large market for the service of
identifying and shutting down the Internet sites distributing pirated content,
and that there are strong operational and strategic synergies between CCS and
Sunhawk.com with respect to digital rights management. The synergies come from
both companies sharing the same target market, providing technology for the
management of digital assets, and combining their efforts to create a compelling
digital rights management service and/or technology product for anti-piracy
tracking.
Sunhawk.com believes the opportunity CCS presents to Sunhawk.com will enable
Sunhawk.com to provide a rights tracking service to content owners that may lead
to a software product to provide this to content owners or other users. Such a
tracking product would come through Sunhawk.com's technical ability to develop
this service into a software product.
In addition, Sunhawk.com believes that Bandrowski and Shaw of The @Visory
Group will play an important role as advisors to the combination, including
(i) making introductions to content owners and other strategic partners,
(ii) assisting Sunhawk.com to establish its core competencies and business
strategies, (iii) addressing Sunhawk.com's strategy with certain analysts and
other parties with a view toward helping Sunhawk.com increase its market
presence, (iv) assisting Sunhawk.com with its goal of market capitalization
targets and introducing Sunhawk.com, upon completion of the combined company's
business plan, to potential sources of financing, including securing private
financing, prior to Sunhawk.com seeking a secondary offering. Sunhawk.com
believe these services will greatly benefit Sunhawk.com and Sunhawk.com's
shareholders.
Sunhawk.com also believes that the share exchange with CCS will greatly help
Sunhawk.com reach its strategic growth plan and achieve its market
capitalization goals. Sunhawk.com also believes that the Sunhawk.com
shareholders will benefit from the integration of The @Visory group into
Sunhawk.com as strategic advisors. In this regard, Sunhawk.com believes that the
combined company business opportunities and strong focus on the business
strategy can help to accelerate the growth of Sunhawk.com such that Sunhawk.com
to reach a market capitalization of $100,000,000 within 12 months of the closing
of the transaction.
CCS'S REASON FOR THE SHARE EXCHANGE
CCS believes that the share exchange with Sunhawk.com will help CCS
implement its strategic growth plan. The service solution CCS provides to track
down sites distributing pirated copyright content and working to have them shut
down will enable both Sunhawk.com and CCS to lends itself to initiating a new
direction in anti-piracy and digital rights management technology. The
complement of technologies of the two companies will help them to provide the
complete solution for digital content owners. The addition of the @Visory group
as consultant to the combined companies will help to facilitate introductions
into CCS and Sunhawk.com's key target markets, making it possible to widen the
distribution of both CCS and Sunhawk.com's products.

ACCOUNTING TREATMENT FOR THE SHARE EXCHANGE
Sunhawk.com intends to account for the share exchange as a "purchase" for
financial reporting and accounting purposes, under generally accepted accounting
principles. As a result, a significant amount of goodwill is expected to be
created, which will be amortized as an expense over 20 years.
CERTAIN SECURITIES LAWS CONSIDERATIONS

Lock-In letter agreements, the Sunhawk.com shares distributed to certain of the
CCS stockholders shall be eligible for sale, provided such shares have been
either (i) held for a sufficient period of time such that any sale satisfies the
requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 or (ii) registered in
accordance with the terms of the registration rights agreement to be entered
into between Sunhawk.com and the CCS shareholders.
DISSENTER'S RIGHTS
Under section 23B.13 of the Revised Code of Washington, stockholders of a

rights.

records. Any liabilities found by Ernst & Young that were not disclosed prior to
the closing will be paid out of the "holdback" shares. The number of shares that
will be used to offset the excess liabilities will equal the quotient, rounded
up to the nearest whole number, derived from dividing the excess liabilities by
the price per share of Sunhawk.com's common stock at the closing of the share
exchange. If Ernst & Young does not find any excess liabilities within 120 days

AGREEMENTS RELATED TO THE SHARE EXCHANGE
AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT
This amendment, executed August 16th, 2000, corrects a technical
inconsistency between the Share Exchange Agreement and Sunhawk.com's Bylaws.
Under the Share Exchange Agreement, an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds
of the holders of each class of Sunhawk.com common stock entitled to vote is
needed to approve the Share Exchange Agreement. However, in accordance with
Sunhawk.com's Bylaws, only a majority vote is actually needed.
LETTER OF INTENT
On April 14th, 2000, Sunhawk.com and CCS entered into a letter of intent
under which the principles and basic terms of an acquisition of all CCS assets
by Sunhawk.com were described. The transaction contemplated in the letter of
intent is outlined below. In addition to reading the outline of the key terms
below, please read the Letter of Intent attached hereto as Annex A.
CCS would sell to Sunhawk.com all of its assets. As consideration for the
sale of all of CCS's assets to Sunhawk.com, Sunhawk.com agreed to the following:
1. To enter into three year employment agreements with Powell and Searle.
2. To issue to the CCS shareholders a total of 400,000 shares of Sunhawk.com
common stock; provided, however, that the shares to be distributed to Powell
and Searle would vest ratably over the three year term of their respective
employment agreements.
3. To issue to Powell and Searle warrants to acquire a combined total of
600,000 additional shares which would vest in tranches of 200,000 shares
over three years. The strike price of each tranche would increase annually.
The goal of this provision was to create performance based criteria for the
vesting of the warrant shares. If the price per share of Sunhawk.com's
common stock was not equal to or in excess of the strike price, the shares
underlying the warrants would not vest and would revert to Sunhawk.com as
treasury stock.
47
<PAGE>
4. To appoint Powell and Searle, respectively, as Vice President and Chief
Technology Officer of the CCS division of Sunhawk.com, to be located in
London, England.
AMENDMENT #1 TO THE LETTER OF INTENT
Primarily in response to the signing of a Consulting Agreement between CCS
and The @Visory Group, the Letter of Intent was revised by amendment #1 to the
Letter of Intent. Sunhawk.com, CCS and The @Visory Group were all parties to
Amendment #1 to the Letter of Intent, which has an effective date of June 1,
2000. This amendment significantly changed the original agreement between
Sunhawk.com and CCS. The essential changes to the letter of intent were in the
compensation to be paid by Sunhawk.com to CCS. Under the amendment, Sunhawk.com
is to pay the CCS Shareholders and The @Visory Group up to 1,950,938 shares of
common stock and Class A Common Stock. In addition, the number of shares to be
paid upon Sunhawk.com achieving certain market capitalization criteria was
revised to reflect the following:

CCS BUSINESS
CCS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATION
Copyright Control Services, Inc. (CCS) was incorporated in August 1999. In
October 1999 CCS entered into a shares exchange agreement with Chinerose
Limited, whereby CCS exchanged 2.775 shares of its common stock for each share
of Chinerose Limited. Chinerose Limited, a United Kingdom limited liability
company was incorporated in June, 1998 and began services for a fee of providing
security services and intellectual property protections solutions for software
companies.
Revenue is primarily derived from contracts with companies owning
intellectual digital content, such as software, to provide security services and
protection solutions.
Cost of revenue consists principally of the costs associated with tracking
and tracing personnel salary costs of the services and solutions.
Selling expenses consist primarily of expenditures incurred in connection
with, attending trade shows and meeting with prospective customers. General and
administrative expenses consist primarily of insurance premiums, rent, telephone
costs, travel expenses for general business, legal and professional fees, staff
salaries, and other related expenses for general corporate functions.
To date we have incurred and expect to continue to incur substantial costs
in order to:
- further develop and extend the application of our intellectual property
tracking system;
- further develop our operational infrastructure;
- increase the size of our staff;
- expand our sales, marketing and business development efforts; and

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE SIX
MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999
REVENUE
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $123,385 compared to
$59,245 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. This increase in revenue
resulted from Sunhawk.com's improvement in technical ability to provide services
and solutions to additional clients and markets.
52
<PAGE>
COST OF REVENUE
Cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $144,163 compared
to $0.00 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in cost of revenue
was primarily due to the increase in tracking and tracing personnel salary
expense associated with additional client contracts.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000, were $42,039
compared to selling expenses of $5,677 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
There were no advertising costs for either period. Selling expenses for both
periods consisted primarily of expenditures incurred in connection with,
attending trade shows and meetings with prospective clients. General and
administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $190,056
compared to $193,919 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase was
primarily due to the professional fees, and hiring additional administrative
personnel.
OTHER INCOME/(EXPENSE)
Other income/(expense) for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was
($4,776) and ($361), respectively. The increase in other expense primarily
relates to interest expense recognized on the notes to shareholder and related
party.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
CCS has financed its operations since inception primarily with funds
received from the sale of equity to key management personnel. Additionally, on
July 3, 2000, CCS issued 1,112,500 shares to a third party. The sale generated
approximately $900,000 in net proceeds. As of June 30, 2000, CCS had negative
working capital of $523,851.
Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $6,682 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 compared with net cash used in operating activities of
$57,210 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in net cash
provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000, as
compared to the prior year, was primarily attributable to increases in accounts
payble related to running the operations of the company.
Net cash used in investing activities was $9,991 for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to $293 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The
increase in cash used in investing as compared to the prior year, was primarily
due to more acquisitions of computer equipment.
Net cash used in financing activities was $27,163 for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to $41,915 for the six-months ended June 30, 1999. The
increase in net cash for financing activities as compared to prior year, was
primarily due to payments on loans from shareholder and proceeds received from
the issuance of common stock.

INCREASE OF COMMON STOCK AUTHORIZED FOR
ISSUANCE UNDER 1996 STOCK OPTION PLAN
SUMMARY
The Sunhawk.com Board of Directors requests that the Sunhawk.com
Shareholders consider and approve an increase in the number of shares authorized
for issuance under the 1996 Stock Option Plan. Currently the plan allows for the
issuance of up to 303,526 shares of Sunhawk.com common stock. Sunhawk.com has
granted 303,526 the authorized shares as of 6/30/00. Therefore in order to
continue with the practice of issuing stock options and warrants as incentives
and in lieu of payment under the 1996 Stock Option Plan, the number of shares
authorized for issuance must be increased.
RECOMMENDATION OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The board of directors of Sunhawk.com has also unanimously determined that
increasing the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under its
1996 Stock Option Plan from 303,526 to 800,000 is in the best interest of
Sunhawk.com and its Sunhawk.com stockholders. Accordingly, the Sunhawk.com board
of directors recommends that Sunhawk.com stockholders vote FOR the proposal to
increase the shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 1996 Stock
Option Plan.

Re: Amendment #1 to the Letter of Intent
Dear David and Paul:
This Amendment #1 to the Letter of Intent (the "Amendment") is dated this
13th day of June, 2000, and amends and otherwise revises that certain Letter of
Intent dated the 14th of April, 2000, by and between Sunhawk.com Corporation
(the "Buyer") and Copyright Control Services (the "Seller"). Unless otherwise
indicated, Mr. Paul Bandrowski and the @Visory group shall be subject to the
restrictions and obligations set forth in the Letter of Intent and this
amendment as if they were the Sellers. All capitalized terms not defined in this
Amendment shall have the meaning set forth in the Letter of Intent.
In connection with the consummation of the Transaction contemplated by the
Letter of Intent, Buyer and Seller agree to amend the Letter of Intent as
follows:
1. THE ACQUISITION. Sections 1.1 and 1.3 of the Letter of Intent shall be
deleted in their entirety and substituted, therefor shall be the following:
1.1 Seller's shareholders, which for purposes of this Amendment shall
include Mr. Paul Bandrowski and the @Visory group, shall receive total
consideration of one million, nine hundred fifty thousand, nine hundred
thirty eight (1,950,938) shares of Buyer's Common Stock (the "Shares"),
subject to the following: upon closing of the Transaction, (i) eight hundred
twenty five thousand (825,000) shares (the "Issued Shares") shall be issued
to Seller and the @Visory group in accordance with the terms set forth on
EXHIBIT A (ii), one million, one hundred twenty five thousand, nine hundred
thirty eight (1,125,938) shares (the "Escrowed Shares") shall be held in
escrow by Buyer pending the satisfaction by Buyer, with the assistance and
direction of Seller and the @Visory group, of the market capitalization
thresholds within the time periods set forth in the attached EXHIBIT A. The
Issued Shares and the Escrowed Shares shall (i) not have registration rights
and (ii) be subject to certain "lock-up" provisions and otherwise be subject
to the same restrictions as those shares of Common Stock held by Buyer's
principal shareholder, President and CEO, Marlin Eller. With respect to the

the Escrowed Shares. Further, Mr. Bandrowski and certain other individuals
working for or on behalf of @Visory, to be identified by Mr. Bandrowski,

behalf of Buyer. In connection with the various business development efforts
to be initiated by Mr. Bandrowski and the other members/principals of the
@Visory group, Mr. Bandrowski and other members/principals of @Visory, will
enter into a two (2) year services agreement reflective of their proposed
business development efforts and that these efforts will result
64

sustained for a minimum of thirty (30) business days), in the dollar amounts
and within the corresponding time periods set forth in EXHIBIT A. In the
event the market capitalization thresholds are achieved within the
corresponding time periods set forth in EXHIBIT A, (i) Sunhawk.com shall
release from the Escrow Agreement the corresponding number of shares of its
Common Stock as set forth in EXHIBIT A and (ii) the management stock options
(the "Key Management Market Capitalization Performance Option Plan") issued
upon Closing shall vest in accordance with EXHIBIT A. In the event any one
or all of the market capitalization thresholds are NOT achieved within the
corresponding time periods, then the Escrowed Shares corresponding with the
satisfaction of the particular market capitalization thresholds shall be
retired, returned to the Buyer and treated as treasury shares.
2. POST-CLOSING MATTERS. Section 2 shall be deleted in its entirety and
substituted, therefor shall be the following:

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT
68
<PAGE>
SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT
This Share Exchange Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into as of August 1,
2000, by Copyright Control Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CCS"), the
shareholders of CCS listed on the attached SCHEDULE A (individually, a "CCS
Shareholder" and collectively, the "CCS Shareholders") and Sunhawk.com
Corporation, a Washington corporation ("Sunhawk.com").
RECITALS
A. Sunhawk.com wishes to acquire from the CCS Shareholders, on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement, all of the issued and outstanding shares
of CCS.
B. Together, the CCS Shareholders are the owners of 8,616,366 shares of
common stock and 1,252,884 shares of preferred stock of CCS as shown on
SCHEDULE A (the "CCS Shares"), which CCS Shares represent all issued and
outstanding capital stock of CCS.
C. The CCS Shareholders desire to exchange the CCS Shares for a total of
1,950,938 shares of the common stock of Sunhawk.com (the "Sunhawk.com Shares")
so as to accomplish and effect a share exchange under the Business Corporation
Act of the State of Washington.
D. It is the intent of the parties that the share exchange qualify as a
corporate reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended, (the "Code") and applicable British law.
Accordingly, the parties agree as follows:
1. SHARE EXCHANGE; ESCROW.
1.1 EXCHANGE OF CCS SHARES. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined below), the CCS Shares owned by
each CCS Shareholder shown on SCHEDULE A shall automatically be exchanged for
the right to receive that number of the Sunhawk.com Shares determined by
application of the Exchange Ratio described in Section 1.3 (the "Share
Exchange"). At the Effective Time and upon the effectiveness of the Share
Exchange, Sunhawk.com shall be deemed to the holder of record of all the CCS
Shares, and CCS shall continue to be governed by the laws of the State of
Delaware.
1.2 ARTICLES OF SHARE EXCHANGE. The Share Exchange shall be effectuated at
the Effective Time pursuant to Articles of Share Exchange ("Articles of Share
Exchange") filed in accordance with applicable provisions of the Washington
Business Corporation Act. The Articles of Share Exchange shall be filed with the
Washington Secretary of State together with any other filings or recordings
required by Washington law in connection with the Share Exchange as soon as
practicable after the Closing (as defined below). The term "Effective Time" as
used in this Agreement means the time at which the Share Exchange becomes
effective under the laws of the State of Washington.
1.3 EXCHANGE RATIO. At the Effective Time, each of the CCS Shares issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the
Share Exchange and without any action on the part of the CCS Shareholders,
automatically be exchanged for that number of Sunhawk.com Shares determined by
mutual agreement of the CCS Shareholders prior to Closing (the "Exchange
Ratio"). Each certificate evidencing ownership of the CCS Shares outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, immediately after the Effective
Time, be exchanged for a certificate or certificates evidencing ownership of the
applicable number of the Sunhawk.com Shares. At the Closing, 825,000 shares of
the common stock of Sunhawk.com (the "Closing Shares") identical to the
currently issued and outstanding shares of Sunhawk.com common stock (the "Common
Stock") shall be delivered to the CCS Shareholders. The balance of 1,125,938
Sunhawk.com Shares shall be Class A Common Stock (the "Class A Common Shares" or
the "Escrowed Shares"), which shall be identical to the Common Stock except that
(i) the
69
<PAGE>
voting rights associated with the Class A Common Shares shall equal 0.05 votes
per share, and (ii) the Class A Common Shares shall be convertible into shares
of the Common Stock, on a share for share basis, upon their release from escrow
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contingent share escrow
agreements in the forms attached as SCHEDULES 1.3.1 and 1.3.2 (the "Contingent
Share Escrow Agreements").
1.4 OPTIONS AND WARRANTS. At its option, exercised in writing prior to the
Closing, Sunhawk.com may elect to adopt and assume the CCS 1999 Stock Option
Plan and any of the outstanding options to purchase the common stock of CCS
shown on SCHEDULE 4.3 (the "CCS Options"), converted at the Exchange Ratio into
options to purchase shares of Common Stock, in which event such options shall
continue in effect after the Closing in accordance with their original vesting
schedules. In the event such option is not exercised by Sunhawk.com as to any or
all of the CCS Options, any CCS Options not so assumed and converted, and all
warrants listed on SCHEDULE 4.3, shall vest immediately prior to Closing as set
forth in the applicable option and warrant agreements.
1.5 HOLDBACK. Sunhawk.com shall retain 100,000 of the Closing Shares (the
"Holdback Shares") until the earlier of 120 days from the Closing Date or
completion of a CCS audit (either, the "Disposal Date") performed by Ernst and
Young (the "Post-Closing Audit"). On the Disposal Date, Holdback Shares with an
aggregate fair market value, as of the Disposal Date, equal to any Excess
Liabilities identified in the Post-Closing Audit shall be released to
Sunhawk.com. "Excess Liabilities" shall mean the amount by which the liabilities
identified in the Post-Closing Audit exceeds the liabilities identified in the
attached SCHEDULE 1.5, which schedule shall be updated by CCS as of the Closing
and delivered to Sunhawk.com at Closing. The Warranting Shareholders shall be
jointly and severally liable for any Excess Liabilities remaining after release
of all of the Holdback Shares to Sunhawk.com. Any of the Holdback Shares
remaining after the Disposal Date shall be retained by Sunhawk.com for an
additional 60 days. To the extent that Sunhawk.com identifies a breach of the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 4 during the period
beginning on the Closing Date and ending 180 days thereafter (the "Holdback
Period"), Sunhawk.com shall provide written notice of such breach to the CCS
Shareholders, which notice shall include a description of the breach and the
dollar amount of damages sustained by Sunhawk.com as a result of such breach (a
"Breach Notice"). If the CCS Shareholders do not dispute a Breach Notice in a
writing delivered to Sunhawk.com within 30 days after their receipt of a Breach
Notice, Holdback Shares with an aggregate fair market value, as of the date of
the Breach Notice, equal to the amount of damages claimed in the Breach Notice
shall be released to Sunhawk.com. If any CCS Shareholder disputes a Breach
Notice, the dispute shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with
Section 9.14 of this Agreement. Any Holdback Shares remaining upon expiration of
the Holdback Period shall be released to the CCS Shareholders in proportion to
their interests in the Sunhawk.com Shares, except for that number of Holdback
Shares sufficient to satisfy claims made in any Breach Notice delivered to the
CCS Shareholders prior to the expiration of the Holdback Period.
2. CLOSING AND CLOSING DOCUMENTS.
2.1 DATE, TIME AND PLACE OF CLOSING. The Share Exchange contemplated by
this Agreement shall take place at a closing (the "Closing") to be held at the
offices of The Otto Law Group, PLLC, 999 Third Avenue, Suite 3210, Seattle,
Washington 98104, on a date and at a time convenient to the parties. The date on
which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the "Closing Date."

4. FURNISH INFORMATION
It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take
any action pursuant to this Agreement that the selling Holders shall furnish to
the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities
held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall
be reasonably required to effect the registration of their Registrable
Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration
as the Company may reasonably request.
5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION
In connection with any registration pursuant to this Agreement, the Company
shall be responsible for the payment of all reasonable expenses of the
registration, with the exception of (a) underwriting discounts and commissions,
which shall be paid by the Company, the Holders and any other selling holders of
the Company's securities in proportion to the aggregate value of the securities
offered for sale by each of them, and (b) the fees and expenses of more than one
law firm acting as counsel to the selling Holders selected by a majority in
interest of the selling Holders, which additional counsel, if any, shall be paid
by the Holder or Holders that engage such counsel. The expenses to be paid by
the Company shall include, without limitation, all registration, filing and
qualification fees, printing and accounting fees, the fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company and the fees and disbursements of one counsel for the
selling Holders.
6. INDEMNIFICATION
In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration
statement under this Agreement:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold
harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Act) for such
Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter
within the meaning of the Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "1934 ACT"), against any actual expenses (including legal fees
and costs), losses, claims, damages (including settlement amounts) or
liabilities (joint or several) (collectively, "LOSSES") to which they may
become subject under the Act, the 1934 Act or other federal or state law,
insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon any of the following
statements, omissions or violations (collectively, a "VIOLATION"): (i) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained therein, or any amendments or supplements thereto,
untrue in light of the circumstances under which they were made, (ii) the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (iii) any
violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Act, the 1934 Act, any
state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act,
the 1934 Act or any state securities law. the Company will reimburse (as
incurred) each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person for any Losses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending
any Violations; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in
this Section 6(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any
claims for Violations if such settlement is made without the consent of the
Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the
Company be liable in any such case for any Losses that arise out of or are
based upon a Violation that occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such
registration by, or on behalf of, any such Holder, underwriter or
controlling person.
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify
and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, agents and
employees, each underwriter and each other Holder selling securities in such
registration statement, and any person who controls any of the foregoing
within the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act, against any Losses to which
the Company or such
111
<PAGE>
officer, director, agent, employee, or underwriter or other selling Holder
or controlling person may become subject under the Act, the 1934 Act or
other federal or state law, insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based
upon any Violation that occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished by, or on behalf of, such Holder expressly for
use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will
reimburse (as incurred) any Losses reasonably incurred by the Company or its
officers, directors, agents, employees, or underwriters or other selling
Holders or controlling persons in connection with investigating or defending
any Violations; provided, however, that (i) the indemnity agreement
contained in this Section 6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement
of any claims for Violations if such settlement is made without the consent
of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and
(ii) the obligations of such Holders shall be limited to an amount equal to
the net proceeds to each such Holder of Registrable Securities sold as
contemplated herein.
(c) Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any action
(including any governmental action), an indemnified party will, if a claim
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver
to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement, and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the
extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an
indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the
fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of
such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party
would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests
between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such
counsel in the proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the
indemnifying party within a reasonable period of time after notice of the
commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of any
liability to the indemnified party under this Section 6 to the extent such
failure is prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, but the
omission to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not
relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 6.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is held by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party
with respect to any Losses, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other
in connection with the Violations that resulted in such Losses as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, that, in no event
shall any contribution by a Holder under this Section 6(d) exceed the net
proceeds to each such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such
Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified
party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
Violation resulting in such Losses relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or
prevent such Violation.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on
indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement
entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in
conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting
agreement shall control.
(f) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 6
shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities and
the termination of Registration Rights pursuant to Section 10.
112
<PAGE>
7. REPORTS UNDER THE ACT
With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of SEC Rule 144
promulgated under the Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may
at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public
without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company
agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to:
(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after 90 days from the
effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for
the offering of its securities to the general public;
(b) Take such action, including the voluntary registration of its Common
Stock under Section 12 of the 1934 Act, as is necessary to enable the
Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities,
such action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal
year in which the first registration statement filed by the Company for the
offering of its securities to the general public is declared effective;
(c) File with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents
required of the Company under the Act and the 1934 Act; and
(d) Furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable
Securities, promptly upon request (i) a written statement by the Company
that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act (at any
time after 90 days from the date on which it becomes subject to such
reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose
securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after it so
qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and
(iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any
Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any
such securities without registration or pursuant to such Form S-3.
8. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS
The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant
to this Agreement may be assigned by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of
such securities who shall, upon such transfer or assignment, be deemed a
"Holder" under this Agreement; provided that the Company is, within a reasonable
period of time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name
and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to
which such registration rights are being assigned.
9. LIMITATIONS ON SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATION RIGHTS
From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without
the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding, enter into any agreement with any holder or
prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder
or prospective holder to include such securities in any registration filed under
Section 2, unless under the terms of such agreement such holder or prospective
holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent
that the inclusion of its securities will not reduce the amount of the
Registrable Securities of the Holders which is included.
10. TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS
The registration rights granted under Section 2 of this Agreement shall
terminate as to all Holders on the earlier of the tenth anniversary of the date
of this Agreement or the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Company's next
public offering in which the aggregate proceeds to the Company before deducting
underwriting commissions and expenses are at least $20,000,000 and the per share
price at which the Common Stock is offered to the public is at least $15 (the
"FIFTH ANNIVERSARY"); provided, however, such
113
<PAGE>
termination shall be postponed until the later of (i) that number of days
following such Fifth Anniversary equal to the number of days, if any, between
the date of such next public offering and the Fifth Anniversary that the Common
Stock of the Company is not traded on a national stock exchange or the Nasdaq
National Market (or any successor organization) and (ii) if as of the Fifth
Anniversary, the Company is not so traded, then, one year following such date as
the Company first resumes trading on a national stock exchange or the Nasdaq
National Market (or any successor organization).

(j) Participation and attendance at meetings with the Company's Board of
Directors, Management, customers, strategic partners and financing allies,
as requested by the Company.
2. TERM. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the date hereof
and shall continue until April 30, 2002, unless sooner terminated as provided
herein.
3. EXTENT OF SERVICES. The Consultant agrees to provide such services
through Paul Bandrowski, or such other persons as may be reasonably agreeable to
the Company. The Company understands that the nature of the services to be
provided are part time and that the Consultant will be engaged in other business

4. TERMINATION. Unless the Agreement is extended by mutual written
agreement of the parties, this Agreement shall terminate upon the first to occur
of the following events:
(a) The Consultant may terminate this Agreement at any time upon twenty
(20) days written notice to the Company;
138
<PAGE>
(b) The Company may terminate this Agreement upon twenty (20) days
written notice to the Consultant, upon the approval of two-thirds of the
Board of Directors of the Company;
(c) March 31, 2002.
Provided, that such termination shall not affect the Company's obligations,
or the Consultant's rights, arising prior to such termination.
5. COMPENSATION.
(a) On the date hereof, in consideration of the execution of this Agreement,
the Consultant shall receive shares of Common Stock of the Company representing
5% (the "@Visory Portion") of the fully diluted shares of all of the capital
stock of the Company outstanding as of the date of this Agreement (the "Capital
Stock").
"Fully Diluted" shall mean the total number of shares of Common Stock of the
Company which would be issued and outstanding assuming full exercise of all
outstanding warrants, options or rights, full conversion of all convertible
securities or debt, full issuance of all shares of Common Stock reserved for
issuance under any stock option plan and the issuance of all shares or
securities pursuant to any agreement, commitment or understanding.
The Company shall use diligent best efforts to cause the appropriate
officers of the Company to record such ownership on the books and records of the
Company, and to issue to the Consultant appropriate certificates evidencing its
ownership of such stock.
(b) If at any time prior to the 61st day ("Review Period") following the
joint execution of this Agreement the Company gives notice of termination to the
Consultant, the Consultant shall immediately surrender to the Company 60% of the
@Visory Portion (i.e., 3% of the 5% issued to the Consultant).
(c) If at any time the Company should determine to register under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any successor Federal statute, and the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, any
of its securities, other than on Form S-8 or Form S-4 or their then equivalents
relating to shares to be issued solely (i) in connection with acquisition of any
entity or business, (ii) upon the exercise of stock options or pursuant to
employee benefit plans, it shall send to the holder of the shares written notice
of such determination and, if within 15 days after receipt of such notice, such
holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall use its best efforts to
include in such registration statement all or part of the shares such holder
requests to be registered therein except that, if, in connection with any
offering involving an underwriting of Common Stock to be issued by the Company,
the managing underwriter in good faith shall impose a limitation on the number
of shares of such Common Stock which may be included in any such registration
statement because, in its written opinion the inclusion of such shares would
adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company
therein, the Company shall then be obligated to include in such registration
statement only such limited portion (which may be none) of the shares with
respect to which the holder has requested inclusion therein. In the event that
there are other holders of Common Stock who have been granted similar piggyback
rights, then the Company shall include in such registration statement the pro
rata share of each such holder of registerable securities (based on the number
of registerable securities each such holder proposed to include in the
registration statement). In such connection with such registration statement,
the Company and the Consultant shall each execute customary indemnification
agreements in favor of the other for the information contained in such
registration statement provided by each. The obligations of the Company under
this subparagraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(d) If, prior to the time of an initial public offering of its securities
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company proposes to
issue Equity Securities of any kind (the term "Equity Securities" shall include
for these purposes any warrants, options or other rights to acquire equity
securities and debt securities convertible into Equity Securities) of the
Company (other than (X) pursuant
139
<PAGE>
to the acquisition of another corporation by the Company by merger, purchase of
substantially all the assets or other form of reorganization, (Y) pursuant to an
employee stock option plan, stock bonus plan, stock purchase plan or other
management equity program or (Z) to vendors, customers and consultants to the
Company), then the Company shall:
(i) Give written notice to the Consultant setting forth in reasonable
detail (A) the designation and all of the terms and provisions of the
securities proposed to be issued (the "Proposed Securities"), including,
where applicable, the voting powers, preferences and relative participating,
optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or
restrictions thereof and interest rate and maturity; (B) the price and other
terms of the proposed sale of such securities; (C) the amount of such
securities proposed to be issued; and (D) such other information as the
Consultant may reasonably request in order to evaluate the proposed
issuance; and
(ii) Offer to issue to the Consultant, on the same price and other terms
as set forth in (i) above, a proportion of the Proposed Securities equal to
a percentage determined by dividing (X) the number of share of Common Stock
held by the Consultant and issuable to the Consultant, assuming conversion
in full of any convertible securities then held by the Consultant, by
(Y) the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding, including
for purposes of this calculation all shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion in full of any then outstanding convertible securities.
The Consultant must exercise its purchase rights hereunder within
15 business days after receipt of such notice from the Company. To the extent
that the Company offers two or more securities and units, Consultant much
purchase such units as a whole and will not be given the opportunity to purchase
only one of the securities making up such unit.
Upon the expiration of the offering, described above, the Company will be
free to sell such Proposed Securities that the Consultant has not elected to
purchase during the 60 days following such expiration on terms and conditions no
more favorable to the purchasers thereof then those offered to the Consultant.
Any Proposed Securities offered or sold by the Company after such 60 day period
must be reoffered to the Consultant pursuant to this Paragraph (e).
The election by the Consultant not to exercise its subscription rights under
this Paragraph in any one instance shall not affect its right (other than in
respect of a reduction in its percentage holdings) as to any subsequent proposed
issuance. The provisions of this Paragraph shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.
6. EXPENSES. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Consultant for all
reasonable travel, business and miscellaneous expenses incurred by the
Consultant in performing its duties under this Agreement.
7. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
(a) CONFIDENTIALITY. Except as required in the performance of his
duties to the Company, the Consultant shall treat as confidential and shall
not, directly or indirectly, use, disseminate, disclose, publish or
otherwise make available any Confidential Information (as hereafter defined)
or any portion thereof. Any employees, members, managers, officers,
representatives, agents or advisors to the Consultant ("Advisors") which

each be required to sign a copy of this Agreement or will otherwise have
agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Paragraph 8. Furthermore, the
Consultant and Advisors shall not directly or indirectly use, disseminate,
disclose, publish or otherwise make available any Confidential Information
for a period of 3 years from the Termination of this Agreement.
(b) RETURN OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Upon termination of this
Agreement, all documents, records, notebooks, computer files, tapes and
diskettes and similar repositories containing Confidential Information,
including copies thereof, then in the Consultant's possession, whether
prepared by it
140
<PAGE>
or others, shall be promptly destroyed by the Consultant or returned to the
Company. If at any time after the termination of this Agreement, the
Consultant determines that it has any Confidential Information in its
possession or control, he shall immediately destroy or return the same to
the Company, including all copies and portions thereof.
(c) DEFINITION. "Confidential Information" means any and all
information relating to the Company's products, customers, pricing and
financing and labeled or marked "confidential" disclosed or made available
to the Consultant and which is known by Consultant as a direct or indirect
consequence of or through its relationship with the Company and not
generally known in the industry in which the Company is or may become
engaged. Confidential Information shall not include any information which
was known by the Consultant prior to receipt of such information by it from
the Company or which thereafter is published or becomes generally available
in the industry through no act or failure on the part of the Consultant.
8. REMEDIES. The parties acknowledge that the remedies at law for the
breach of the agreements and covenants set forth in Paragraph 7 are inadequate
and that the Company shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive
relief to the fullest extent available under applicable law enjoining the
Consultant from engaging in any conduct constituting a breach of the agreements
and covenants contained in Paragraph 7. In the event of any such breach or
alleged breach, and with respect to any preliminary injunction issued, the
Company shall be required to post only the minimum bond or security permitted
under applicable law. Such remedies shall be in addition to, and not in
substitution of, any other remedies which the Company may have at law or in
equity in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any of the foregoing
agreements or covenants by the Consultant.
9. STATUS. Except as otherwise may be agreed, the Consultant shall at all
times be an independent contractor, rather than a co-venturer, agent, employee

Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when personally
delivered or sent by certified or registered mail to the following addresses, or

Company or its shareholders or by the Company or its shareholders with
respect to such covered Transaction, including, without limitation,
consideration paid in respect of (i) the assets of the acquired company,
(ii) the capital stock of the acquired company (and any securities
convertible into options, warrants or other rights to acquire such capital
stock) and (iii) the
147
<PAGE>
assumption, directly or indirectly (by operation of law or otherwise), of
any long-term liabilities of the acquired company or repayment of
indebtedness, including without limitation, indebtedness secured by the
assets of the acquired company. In the event a Covered Transaction is
consummated in one or more steps, including without limitation, any
additional consideration paid or to be paid in any subsequent step as set
forth above, such additional consideration shall be included in the
definition of "Total Consideration." Any payments due to the Advisor will be
made at the time of the closing, except as otherwise provided herein.
(c) If all or a portion of the Total Consideration paid in the Covered
Transaction is other than cash or negotiable securities then the value of
such non-cash consideration shall be the fair market value thereof on the
date the Covered Transaction is consummated as mutually agreed upon in faith
by the Company and the Advisor. If such non-cash consideration consists of
common stock, options, warrants or rights for which a public trading market
existed prior to consummation of the Covered Transaction, then the value of
such securities shall be determined by the closing or last sales price
thereof on the date of the consummation of the Covered Transaction;
provided, however, that if such non-cash consideration consists of
newly-issued, publicly traded common stock, options, warrants or rights for
which no public trading market existed prior to the consummation of the
Covered Transaction, then the value thereof shall be the average of the
closing prices for the 20 trading days subsequent to the fifth trading day
after the consummation of the Covered Transaction. In such event, the fee
payable to the Advisor pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid on the fifth
trading day subsequent to consummation of the Covered Transaction. If no
public market exists for the common stock, options, warrants or rights
issued in the Covered Transaction, then the value of such securities shall
be as mutually agreed upon in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors
and the Advisor. If such non-cash consideration consists of preferred stock
or debt securities (regardless of whether a public trading market existed
for such preferred stock or debt securities prior to the consummation of the
Sale Transaction or exists thereafter), the value thereof shall be the fair
market value of such non-cash consideration. Any amounts payable to or by
the Company, or any affiliate of the Company or any shareholder of the
Company in connection with a non-competition agreement or any employment,
consulting, licensing, supply or other agreement entered into as part of a
Covered Transaction, to the extent that such amounts payable are greater
than what would customarily be paid on an arms-length basis to an employee,
consultant, licensee or supplier, shall be deemed to be part of the Total
Consideration.
(d) If all or a portion of the Total Consideration payable in
connection with a Covered Transaction includes future payments, then the
Company shall pay the Advisor any additional cash fee, determined in
accordance with this Agreement, when, and if such payments are paid.
(e) In the event that for any reason the Company shall fail to pay to
the Advisor all or any portion of the fees payable hereunder when due,
interest shall accrue and be payable on the unpaid cash balance due
hereunder from the date when first due through and including the date when
actually collected by the Advisor, at a rate equal to four percent above the
prime rate of Citibank, N.A., in New York, New York, computed on a daily
basis and adjusted as announced from time to time.
(f) The provisions of this Section 4 shall be effective on the date
hereof and shall expire simultaneously with the expiration of the Term of
this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the
Company shall, within 180 days immediately following the expiration of the
Term of this Agreement, conclude a Covered Transaction with any party
introduced to the Company by the Advisor or its agent, representative or
other designee prior to such expiration, the Company shall also pay the
Advisor the fee determined above.
5. LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION.
148
<PAGE>
(a) Advisor shall not be subject to liability to the Company or to any
officer, director, employee, shareholder or creditor of the Company by
virtue of any act or omission in the course of or connected with the
rendering or providing of consulting services hereunder, except for acts of
bad faith or gross negligence by the Advisor.
(b) The Company hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless
the Advisor from and against any and all costs, expenses, and liabilities
(including reasonable attorney's fees) which may in any way result from
services rendered by the Advisor pursuant to or in connection with this
Agreement, except for acts of bad faith or gross negligence by the Advisor.
6. NOTICES. Any notices hereunder shall be sent to the Company and the
Advisor at their respective addresses above set forth. Any notice shall be given

<PAGE>
PLAN OF SHARE EXCHANGE
This Plan of Exchange is submitted in accordance with RCW 23B.11.020, and
summarizes the terms and conditions of the Share Exchange and the Share Exchange
Agreement, as amended and executed by and among the shareholders of Copyright
Control Services, Inc., a Delaware Corporation ("CCS"), and Sunhawk.com
Corporation, a Washington corporation ("Sunhawk"). This Plan of Share Exchange,
however, may not contain all the information that is important to you. The Share
Exchange Agreement, as amended, is attached to the proxy statement dated
August 25, 2000, as Annex A, and Sunhawk recommends that you read it carefully.
The Share Exchange Agreement and this Plan of Exchange have been reviewed by
Sunhawk's board of directors, and the board of directors unanimously recommends
that the shareholders approve this Plan of Exchange.
SHARE EXCHANGE
At the effective time of the share exchange, each share of CCS common stock
and preferred stock shall automatically be exchanged for a certain number of
shares of Sunhawk.com common stock and Class A Common Stock.
EXCHANGE RATIO/ESCROW
The ratio for the share exchange shall be such that all shares of CCS common
stock and preferred stock will be exchanged for a total of 1,950,938 shares of
Sunhawk common stock.
At closing all the CCS stockholders shall receive, on a pro rata basis,
825,000 of the total 1,950,938 shares to be exchanged. The balance, 1,125,938
shares of Class A Common Stock, shall be placed in escrow at closing. No
fractional shares will be issued in connection with the pro rata distribution of
the shares of common stock or Class A Common Stock to be issued at closing. The
shares that are held in escrow shall not be released until certain milestones,
as described in the Services Agreement and set forth on EXHIBIT A, have been
reached. If the milestones are reached on or before the expiration of specific
deadlines, that number of Class A Common Shares associated with the satisfaction
of the milestone set forth on EXHIBIT A shall be released to the CCS
stockholders on a pro rata basis. If the milestones described in the Services
Agreement are not reached prior to the expiration of the specific deadlines, the
Class A Common Shares associated with the satisfaction of the milestone set
forth on EXHIBIT A shall be returned to Sunhawk and retired as treasury stock.
CLASS A COMMON SHARES
In accordance with the above, Sunhawk shall place 1,125,938 shares of
Class A Common Shares in escrow. This class of shares currently does not exist
and the Sunhawk stockholders must approve the amendment to the Articles of
Incorporation to create them. The Class A Common Shares shall have all the
characteristics of common stock, except that:
a) the shares shall have 1/20 the vote of common stock;
b) the Class A Common Shares shall be convertible into common stock upon
their release from escrow; and
c) the Class A Common Shares shall, if not released from escrow and
converted into Sunhawk common stock in accordance with the timeframes set
forth in the escrow agreements, be returned to Sunhawk and retired as
treasury stock.
OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
The Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, provides that Sunhawk has the
option to adopt and assume the CCS 1999 Stock Option Plan. If Sunhawk adopts and
assumes the plan, the options therein
153
<PAGE>
shall convert into options to purchase Sunhawk shares in accordance with
exchange ratio described above and shall continue to vest in accordance with the
schedule set forth in the CCS 1999 Stock Option Plan. If Sunhawk does not elect
to adopt and assume the CCS 1999 Stock Option Plan, all options in that plan
shall vest immediately prior to closing.
HOLDBACK
In order to protect Sunhawk and the Sunhawk stockholders from CCS
liabilities in excess of those disclosed in the Share Exchange Agreement as
amended, the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, calls for a holdback of
100,000 of the 825,000 Sunhawk common stock shares to be delivered to the CCS
stockholders on the effective date. The 100,000 shares will be held in escrow
while Ernst & Young performs a post-closing audit of the CCS books and records.
Any liabilities found by Ernst & Young that were not disclosed prior to the
closing will be paid out of the shares being held back. The number of shares
that will be used to offset the excess liabilities will be that whole number of
shares which product, when multiplied by the price per share at closing, equals
or exceeds the excess liabilities. If Ernst & Young does not find any excess
liabilities within 120 days of the closing, the shares subject shall be
delivered to the CCS stockholders.
