the recording medium containing the Program as originally provided by Company and is not applicable to normal wear and tear. This warranty shall not be applicable and shall be void if the defect has arisen through abuse,
mistreatment, or neglect. Any implied warranties prescribed by statute are expressly limited to the 90-day period described above. To receive warranty service: Notify the THQ Customer Service Department of the problem

12.INDEMNITY. At Company’s request, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Company, its affiliates, contractors, officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, licensees, distributors, content providers, and

14.TERMINATION. Without prejudice to any other rights of Company, this License Agreement and your right to use the Program may automatically terminate without notice from Company if you fail to comply with any
provision of this Agreement or any terms and conditions associated with the Program. In such event, you must destroy all copies of this Program and all of its component parts.
15.GENERAL PROVISIONS. You may not use, copy, modify, sublicense, rent, sell, assign or transfer the rights or obligations granted to you in this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Any assignment
in violation of this Agreement is void, except that you may transfer your Program to another person provided that person accepts the terms of this License Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and such decision shall not affect the enforceability of: (i) such provision under other circumstances, or (ii)
the remaining provisions hereof under all circumstances. Company’s failure to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provisions, nor in
any way affect the right of any party to enforce each and every such provision thereafter. The express waiver by Company of any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any future
obligation to comply with such provision, condition or requirement. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, no default, delay or failure to perform on the part of Company shall be considered a breach of this
Agreement if such default, delay or failure to perform is shown to be due to causes beyond the reasonable control of Company. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California and the United States
without regard to its conflicts of laws rules and you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Los Angeles County, California. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of
Goods shall not apply to this Agreement. This Agreement represents the complete agreement concerning this License Agreement between you and Company.

The Characters
Otto Rocket
Maurice Rodriguez
Also Known As: Ottoman, O-Man,
Otto-matic and Rocket Boy
Also Known As: Twister and Twist
Otto is so totally ‘Zen’ at ten. You know, in touch with nature, being
one with it and all when he’s doing something extreme. Stuff like that.
He’s gifted, stubborn, charismatic and the self-appointed, brazen
Rocket Power leader. Otto’s also totally obsessed with sports. Any
kind, as long as it’s fast and perilous! And that can be a real problem.
Because of his total devotion to the relentless pursuit of athletic
perfection, Otto tends to forget just about everything else, making
him sometimes unreliable. Okay, most times!
Twister is a daredevil film-maker-type who never leaves home without
his handheld videocam. In fact, he’s been known to get a little too close
with that camera, nearly blocking Otto’s view of the finish line during
a race! Even though his older brother Lars can be Otto’s fiercest
competitor, Twister and Otto are best friends, behind each other
all the way. And Twister’s got the film footage to prove it!
Sam Dullard
Also Known As: Squid, Squidman
and Sammy
Reggie Rocket
Also Known As: Reg, Regina
and Rocket Girl
Reggie is Otto’s 11-year-old sister. She’s
strong, smart, a star athlete and a leader and
crusader for the underdog. She publishes her own
zine that covers everything from extreme sports
(natch!) to ‘kid politics.’ She really is the ultimate
girl action hero, never turning down a challenge
from the boys, and always keepin’ up. Reggie is
often the voice of reason in the gang.
8
Every group of daredevils needs
that one voice of reason. And Sam
is it for the Rocket Power gang. He’s
smart, questioning and a loyal
techno whiz kid from Kansas who’s
new to Ocean Shores. Sam’s a bit more
cautious (think SCARED!) than the rest
of the kids, and since he always voices
his fears, he helps to keep the group
more grounded by making them think
before they launch!
