and agreed to provide certain services (i) to enable Gate Five to develop the game, and (ii) to<br />

promote the game.<br />

96. Ms. Carter purported to terminate the Agreement and revoke the license, pursuant<br />

to Section 6(b)(v), which permits either party to terminate if Gate Five fails to obtain “committed<br />

financing or additional capital” in the amount of $5 million by November 15, 2010.<br />

97. Ms. Carter had no right to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 6(b)(v)<br />

because Gate Five had already obtained “committed financing or additional capital” in excess of<br />

$5 million by November 15, 2010.<br />

98. Ms. Carter also had no right to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section<br />

6(b)(v) because she waived that provision, through her own actions and statements and those of<br />

her agents, indicating that she was continuing with the project.<br />

99. Ms. Carter also had no right to terminate because Gate Five relied to its detriment,<br />

by incurring millions of dollars in fees and expenses, on her and her agent’s actions and<br />

statements indicating she was continuing with the project.<br />

100. Ms. Carter’s purported termination of the Agreement pursuant to Section 6(b)(v)<br />

thus constituted a breach.<br />

101. Gate Five has performed all of its obligations under the Agreement.<br />

102. As a result of Ms. Carter’s breaches, Gate Five was unable to complete the<br />

development of Starpower: Beyoncé and its sequels, or to market and sell them, as contemplated<br />

under the Agreement.<br />

103. Gate Five has been injured by Ms. Carter’s conduct in an amount to be<br />

determined at trial.<br />
