ARTICLE V
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASER

As a material inducement to the Company to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Purchaser makes the following representations and warranties to the Company, which representations and warranties shall be true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof and the Closing Date.

5.1                               Authority.

The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into and to perform this Agreement in accordance with its terms and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.  This Agreement has been executed and delivered by the Purchaser and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable in accordance with its terms.  The execution and performance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Note and compliance with their provisions by the Purchaser: (i) to the Purchaser’s knowledge will not violate any provision of Law applicable to the Purchaser; and (ii) will not conflict with or result in any breach of any of the Material terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under the Purchaser’s Certificate of Incorporation, or any indenture, lease, agreement or other instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, or any decree, judgment, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Purchaser.

5.2                               Experience.

The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act and, by virtue of its experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company, the Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own interests.

5.3                               Investment.

The Purchaser has not been formed solely for the purpose of making this investment and is acquiring the Note for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution of any part thereof.  The Purchaser understands that the Note and the Conversion Securities to be acquired have not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state and other securities laws by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state and other securities laws, the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein.

5.4                               Brokers or Finders.

The Purchaser has not retained any investment banker, broker or finder in connection with the purchase of the Note.  The Purchaser will indemnify and hold the Company harmless

25

against any liability, settlement or expense arising out of, or in connection with, any claim by any such investment banker, broker or finder.

5.5                               Shares Not Registered.

Any shares acquired by the Purchaser upon the execution of the Purchaser’s right of conversion set forth in the Note (“Shares”) will not be registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the Securities Act, and all Shares must be held indefinitely, unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or the Purchaser satisfies certain other requirements under the Securities Act.  The Purchaser understands that these restrictions are in addition to the contractual restrictions on transfer of Shares set forth in this Agreement.  The Purchaser is aware of the adoption of Rule 144 by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act.  The Purchaser understands that the conditions for resale set forth in Rule 144 have not been satisfied and that the Company is under no obligation to satisfy these conditions.

ARTICLE VI
ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

6.1                               Application of Proceeds.

Upon receipt of the proceeds of the Note, the Company will immediately apply such proceeds as set forth on Schedule 2.3.

6.2                               Payment of Amounts Due Under the Note.

The Company will timely pay any principal and interest due as well as any other amounts payable under the Note in accordance with its terms and conditions.

6.3                               Reservation of Securities.

The Company shall reserve, for the life of the Note, such securities as the Purchaser is entitled to receive upon conversion of the Note.  Prior to the issuance of any equity securities (or any instrument exercisable for or convertible into equity securities) and whenever otherwise required, the Company will amend its Articles of Incorporation and take any such other action as is necessary to ensure that there is a sufficient quantity of such equity securities into which the Note can be converted.  Such equity securities shall, when issued and delivered in accordance with terms of the Note, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

6.4                               Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements, Etc.

All representations and warranties hereunder shall survive the Closing, and shall terminate upon repayment or conversion of the Note.  Except as otherwise provided herein, all agreements and/or covenants contained herein shall survive indefinitely until, by their respective terms, they are no longer operative.

26

6.5                               Legal Fees and Expenses and Taxes.

Each party shall pay all of its expenses in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, the Note, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

6.6                               Filing of a UCC-1 Financing Statement.

On the day on which the Closing occurs, the Company shall file a UCC-1 financing statement with the Secretary of State of the State of California in order to perfect its lien on the collateral covered by the Security Agreement, in the form approved by the Purchaser.

6.7                               Restrictions on Transfer of Shares.

(a)                                  The Purchaser shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, assign, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, offer, grant or sell any option or other contract for the purchase of, purchase any option or other contract for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or agree to engage in any of the foregoing, any Shares, nor shall any Shares be made subject to sale under execution, attachment, levy or similar process or otherwise be transferred, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law or otherwise (each of the foregoing being referred to as a “Transfer”).  Any Transfer of Shares shall be void, and the Company shall not be required for any purpose whatsoever to recognize any Transfer.  In the event of the declaration of a stock dividend, the declaration of an extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than stock, a recapitalization, a spin-off, a stock split, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization, a reclassification or another similar event that affects the Company’s outstanding securities without receipt of consideration, any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money paid other than as an ordinary cash dividend) that by reason of such event are distributed with respect to any Shares or into which Shares as a result become convertible shall immediately be subject to the restrictions set forth in this paragraph.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, the Purchaser may sell Shares to a third party if the Purchaser first offers the Company the right to purchase such Shares in the manner required by this paragraph.  If the Purchaser wishes to sell Shares, the Purchaser shall notify the Company in writing (a “Transfer Notice”) describing the material terms of the proposed transfer, including the number of Shares proposed to be transferred, the proposed transfer price, and the name and address of the proposed transferee. The Company shall have the right (the Company’s “Purchase Right”) to purchase all, but not less than all, the Shares subject to the Transfer Notice on the terms described in the Transfer Notice, by delivering to the Purchaser, within 30 days after receiving the Transfer Notice, notice of exercise of the Company’s Purchase Right.  The Company may assign its Purchase Rights to any Person.  If the Company does not exercise its Purchase Right within the aforementioned time period, the Purchaser may, not later than 90 days after the Company receives the Transfer Notice, consummate a sale of such Shares on the terms and conditions described in the Transfer Notice.  To be valid, however, (i) the sale shall not cause the violation of any federal or state securities laws and, if required by the Company, the Purchaser shall provide the Company with an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to that effect; and (ii) the transferee must agree, in a writing approved by the Company, to be bound by all provisions of this Section 6.7 with respect

27

to the Shares transferred.  Any proposed sale on terms and conditions materially different from those described in the Transfer Notice, and any subsequent proposed sale by the Purchaser, shall again be subject to the Company’s Purchase Right.  If the Company exercises its Purchase Right, the Purchaser and the Company shall consummate the sale of the Shares on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice within 60 days after the Company receives the Transfer Notice (or within such longer period if specified in the Transfer Notice); provided, however, that if the Transfer Notice provided that the payment for the Shares was to be made in a form other than cash or cash equivalent paid at the time of transfer, the Company shall have the option of paying for the Shares with cash or cash equivalent equal to the present value of the consideration described in the Transfer Notice.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may Transfer Shares to any of its Affiliates without complying with any of the provisions of this Section 6.7, so long as the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Section 6.7.

ARTICLE VII
EVENTS OF DEFAULT

If an Event of Default (as defined below) occurs, the Purchaser may, by notice to the Company, declare the Outstanding Balance on the Note, together with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts payable thereon, to be immediately due and payable.  The Company will give the Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default promptly (setting forth in reasonable detail all of the facts related thereto) and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days after the Company has knowledge of the occurrence of any such event.

For purposes of this Agreement, an “Event of Default” is any of the following occurrences:

(d)                                 The Company shall be involved in financial difficulties, but solely as evidenced (i) by its commencement of a voluntary case under Title 11 of the United States

28

Bankruptcy Code as from time to time in effect, or by its authorizing, by appropriate proceedings of its Board or other pleading admitting or failing to deny the material allegations of a petition filed against it commencing an involuntary case under said Title 11, or seeking, consenting to or acquiescing in the relief therein provided, or by its failing to controvert timely the material allegations of any such petition, (ii) by the entry of an order for relief in any involuntary case commenced under said Title 11, (iii) by its seeking relief as a debtor under any applicable law, other than said Title 11, of any jurisdiction relating to the liquidation or reorganization of debtors or to the modification or alteration of the rights of creditors, or by its consenting to or acquiescing in such relief, (iv) by the entry of an order by a court of competent jurisdiction (A) finding it to be bankrupt or insolvent, (B) ordering or approving its liquidation, reorganization or any modification or alteration of the rights of its creditors, or (C) assuming custody of, or appointing a receiver or other custodian for, all or a substantial part of its property, or (v) by its making an assignment for the benefit of, or entering into a composition with, its creditors, or appointing or consenting to the appointment of a receiver or other custodian for all or a substantial part of its property; or

(e)                                  If there shall exist final judgments against the Company aggregating in excess of $50,000 and if any one of such judgments or such judgments shall have been outstanding for any period of forty-five (45) days or more from the date of its entry and shall not have been discharged in full or stayed pending appeal; or

(f)                                    The Company shall take any corporate action authorizing, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing; or

(g)                                 The Company shall have breached any Material covenant in this Agreement, the Security Agreement, or the Note (other than such as are referred to above in this Article VII), and, with respect to any breach capable of being cured, such breach shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days following notice of such Material breach to the Company by the Purchaser; or

(h)                                 John Lowry shall have breached any Material covenant in the Stock Pledge Agreement and, with respect to any breach capable of being cured, such breach shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days following notice of such Material breach to Mr. Lowry by the Purchaser; or

(i)                                     Any representation or warranty subject to a Materiality qualification made by the Company herein or in the Note, the Security Agreement or the Pledge Agreement shall prove to have been incorrect in any respect, or any representation or warranty not subject to a Materiality qualification made by the Company herein or in Note, the Security Agreement or the Pledge Agreement shall prove to have been incorrect in any Material respect.

In case any one or more Events of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Purchaser may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein, in the Security Agreement, in the Pledge Agreement or in the Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.  In case of a default in the payment of any principal of

29

or premium, if any, or interest on the Note, the Company will pay to the Purchaser such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the cost and expenses of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.  No course of dealing and no delay on the part of the Purchaser in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice its rights, powers or remedies.  No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or by the Note upon the Purchaser shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

In addition to the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision herein or in the Note to the contrary, in case of an Event of Default as a result of the matter set forth in sub-clause (b) above, the Outstanding Balance on the Note shall automatically be increased by and additional $200,000.

LOWRY DIGITAL IMAGES, INC.

SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

This SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE (this “Note”) is issued pursuant to that certain Secured Convertible Note Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), by and between Lowry Digital Images, Inc., a California corporation (the “Company”), and Digital Theater Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Lender”), and is entitled to the benefits of the Note Purchase Agreement.  The payment of the principal sum of this Note, including interest accrued thereon, is secured pursuant to the terms of that certain Security Agreement dated as of June 2, 2004 (the “Security Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Lender.  Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Note Purchase Agreement.

1.                                       Principal and Interest.  The Company, for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of Digital Theater Systems, Inc., or holder (either, the “Holder”) in lawful money of the United States, the principal amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), together with interest (computed on the basis of a 360 day year) accrued on the unpaid principal of this Note at the rate of six percent (6.0%) per annum commencing on the date hereof and compounding monthly.  Accrued interest on this Note shall be payable in full in cash on the Maturity Date (as defined below).  No amount shall be due on this Note prior to the Maturity Date, except as provided in Section 7 hereof.  The amount outstanding on this Note is subject to increase as described in the last sentence of Article VII of the Note Purchase Agreement.

Subject to Section 2 hereof, this Note is due and payable (a) on December 17, 2005 (the “Maturity Date”); or (b) on demand by written notice following the occurrence of an Event of Default.  Subject to Section 2 hereof, the Company shall, on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of the written notice referred to in the immediately preceding sentence (the “Payment Date”), pay the outstanding principal and all accrued and unpaid interest on this Note (as well as any other amounts payable hereunder) as of the Maturity Date or the Payment Date, as applicable.  All payments shall be applied first to accrued interest and other amounts payable hereon, and the balance to principal.

2.                                       Optional Conversion.  Upon the demand by written notice made by the Lender (the date such notice is received being referred to herein as the “Notice Date”), the Company shall, in lieu of repaying this Note, convert this Note into that number of shares of the Company’s common stock such that, following conversion, the number of shares so issued represents 10.0% of the then-outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock (treating as outstanding all shares issuable upon exercise of options, warrants, convertible notes (including other convertible notes held by the Lender) and other convertible securities, including options authorized by a stock option plan but not yet issued), at the time of conversion.  Such a notice may be sent by the Lender at any time on or after January 31, 2005.  Upon an acquisition of Shares pursuant to the exercise of such conversion rights, the Lender shall be deemed to have again made in favor of the Company the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.5 of the Note Purchase Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, the right to conversion set forth in this paragraph is personal to the Lender, and neither such right nor any interest therein may be assigned or transferred by the Lender to any Person other than to an Affiliate of the Lender.

3.                                       No Usury.  This Note is hereby expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of deferment or advancement of loan proceeds, acceleration of maturity of the loan evidenced hereby, or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Holder hereunder for the loan, use, forbearance or detention of money exceed the maximum interest rate permitted by the laws of the State of California.  If at any time the performance of any provision involves a payment exceeding the limit of the price that may be validly charged for the loan, use, forbearance or detention of money under applicable law, then automatically and retroactively, ipso facto, the obligation to be performed shall be reduced to such limit, it being the specific intent of the Company and the Holder hereof that all payments under this Note are to be credited first to interest as permitted by law, but not in excess of (i) the agreed rate of interest hereunder, or (ii) that permitted by law, whichever is the lesser, and the balance toward the reduction of principal.

4.                                       Attorneys’ Fees.  If the indebtedness represented by this Note or any part hereof is collected in bankruptcy, receivership or other judicial proceedings or if this Note is placed in the hands of attorneys for collection after default, the Company agrees to pay, in addition to the principal and interest payable hereunder, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by the Holder, as well as any and all interest that has accrued on the outstanding principal after the commencement of bankruptcy, receivership or other judicial proceedings.

5.                                       Transfer.

(a)                                  Subject to the last sentence of Section 2 above, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Holder of this Note will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties hereto.

(b)                                 Subject to the last sentence of Section 2 above, the Holder may, prior to conversion hereof, surrender this Note at the principal office of the Company for transfer or exchange of all or any portion of this Note.  Within a reasonable time after notice to the Company by the Holder of its intention to make such exchange and without expense to the Holder, except for any transfer or similar tax which may be imposed on the transfer or exchange,

2

the Company shall issue in exchange therefor another note or notes for the same aggregate principal amount as the unpaid principal amount of the Note so surrendered, having the same rate of interest, containing the same provisions, and subject to the same terms and conditions as the Note so surrendered, subject to the last sentence of Section 2 above.  Each such new Note shall be made payable to such person or persons, or transferees, as the Holder of such surrendered Note may designate in writing.  Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, no opinion of counsel shall be required in connection with a transfer under this Section 5(b) to any such transferee.

6.                                       Notices.  Any notice, other communication or payment required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given if delivered as described in the Notices section of the Note Purchase Agreement and to the appropriate addresses listed therein.

7.                                       Event of Default.
