The contract requires guaranteed royalties totaling $505,000 of which $470,000 has been paid in prior years. At December 26, 2004, the Company has prepaid royalties related to this license of approximately $143,200, of which the long-term portion of $87,200 is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company also has remaining product rights of approximately $114,400, which is included in other intangibles, net in the consolidated balance sheet. These amounts are expected to be recovered from anticipated revenues related to the STAR WARS brand in the years 2005 through 2018.

The holders of these debentures may put the notes back to the Company in December 2005, December 2011, and December 2016 at the principal amount. At that time, the purchase price may be paid in cash, shares of common stock or a combination of the two. The Company's current intent is to settle in cash any puts exercised.
