contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, due or to become due, and whether contractual, statutory,
or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that

(h) any liability or claim for liability (whether in contract, in tort or

Contract) based upon actions, omissions or events occurring on or prior to the Closing
Date.
1.05 Allocation Reporting. The Purchaser and the Seller hereby agree and acknowledge that
the fair market value of the Parent Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 1.07 equals $30,000.
Schedule 1.05 has been prepared consistent with this value. Schedule 1.05 sets forth the
allocations established by Purchaser and Seller of the Purchase Price among the Assets, and in
connection therewith:
(a) the allocations set forth on Schedule 1.05 are acknowledged by the parties to
be the fair market value of the Assets and will be used by Purchaser and Seller as the
basis for reporting asset values and other items for purposes of all required Tax
Returns (as hereinafter defined) (including without limitation, any Tax Returns required
to be filed under Section 1060(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
Code) and the regulations promulgated thereunder) and Form 8594, if
applicable;
(b) Purchaser and Seller shall not assert, in connection with any audit or other
proceeding with respect to Taxes, any asset values or other items inconsistent with the
allocations set forth on Schedule 1.05 hereto; and
1.06 Consents to Assignment. In the event any consent required to be obtained pursuant to
the terms of any Contract (excluding In-bound Intellectual Property Licenses) (collectively
referred to as Withheld Consent Contracts) prior to the assignment of such Withheld Consent
Contract by Seller to Purchaser hereunder is not obtained as of the Closing Date, Seller shall hold
such Withheld Consent Contract in trust for Purchaser and carry out and comply with the terms and
provisions of such Withheld Consent Contract as agent for Purchaser, under Purchasers direction
and control, at Purchasers cost and for Purchasers benefit. Purchaser and Seller shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such consent after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any such consent is not obtained within 30
Business Days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option, exercisable at any time
thereafter by written notice delivered to Seller, of
treating such Withheld Consent Contract as an Excluded Asset under this Agreement, in which case
Purchaser shall have no further obligation with respect to such Withheld Consent Contract and
Seller will retain all benefits and liabilities arising thereunder. Purchaser acknowledges and
agrees that its option of treating any such Withheld Consent Contract as an Excluded Asset pursuant
to the terms of this Section 1.06 represents the sole and exclusive recourse of Purchaser with
respect to the parties inability to obtain any required consent to assignment of any Withheld
Consent Contract, subject to Schedule 1.01(c).
7
1.07 Purchase Price. The total purchase price for the Assets (the Purchase
Price) shall be 20,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock. The Purchase Price shall be payable
and/or deliverable at Closing to Seller (the Closing Payment).

consistent with past practice;
(f) any (i) grant of any severance, termination or change of control pay or other

2.08 Assets.
(a) Except as set forth in Schedule 2.08, Seller is the sole and exclusive owner
of, and has good and marketable title to the Assets, free and clear of all Encumbrances
except for Permitted Encumbrances, and is exclusively entitled to possess and dispose of
same (except for any consent expressly required pursuant to any of the Contracts, all of
which are listed on Schedule 1.01(b)). At Closing, Seller will transfer to Purchaser
good and marketable title to all of the Assets, free and clear of any and all
Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances. There are no outstanding agreements or
options to sell to any Person other than Purchaser the right to purchase or otherwise
acquire any of the Assets.
(b) The Assets constitute all of the property that can reasonably be regarded as
being necessary for Purchaser to carry on the Business as of the Closing Date. The
Assets include, without limitation, all assets and rights used by Seller in the
operation and conduct of the Business. Each such Asset is in good operating condition
and repair (subject to normal wear and tear).
2.09 Real Property. Seller does not own or lease any Real Property.
2.10 Intellectual Property.
(a) Seller owns all right, title and interest in and to or is duly licensed to use
all of the Intellectual Property Assets. The Business as presently conducted does not,
and the Assets as historically used by Seller do not, interfere with, infringe upon,
misappropriate or otherwise come into conflict with, any Intellectual Property assets of
any Person. Schedule 2.10 lists and describes: (i) all patents and patent applications
and all registered and unregistered trademarks, trade names and service marks,
registered and unregistered copyrights, and included in the Intellectual Property
Assets, including, without limitation, the jurisdictions in which each such Intellectual
Property Asset has been issued or registered or in which any application for such
issuance and registration has been filed; (ii) all licenses, sublicenses and other
agreements as to which Seller is a party and pursuant to which any Person is authorized
to use any Intellectual Property Assets; and (iii) all In-bound Intellectual Property
Licenses. Other than as set forth in Schedule 2.11, Seller has not placed any of the
Intellectual Property Assets in escrow for the benefit of any third party. Other than
as set forth in Schedule 2.11, Seller has not (i) licensed to any Person any of its
Intellectual Property Assets, whether in source code form or otherwise, (ii) entered
into any exclusive agreements with any party relating to its Intellectual Property
Assets, or (iii) entered into any reseller, distribution or other agreements pursuant to
which any third party is entitled to license or sublicense the Intellectual
Property Assets.
11
(b) Seller has not entered into any agreement to indemnify any Person against any
charge of infringement of any Intellectual Property Assets or any Intellectual Property
of any Person.
(c) All patents, trademarks, service marks and copyrights (whether registered or
not) held by Seller, as identified in Schedule 2.11, are valid, enforceable and
subsisting. Seller (i) has not been sued and is not aware of the possible basis for any
suit, action or proceeding which involves a claim of infringement against Seller by any
Person of any third party Intellectual Property rights and (ii) has not brought and is
not aware of the possible basis for bringing any action, suit or proceeding for
infringement of Sellers Intellectual Property Assets or breach of any license or
agreement involving the Intellectual Property Assets against any Person.
(d) To the extent necessary (or appropriate given customary industry practice) to
secure its ownership of its Intellectual Property Assets, Seller has secured valid
written assignments from all Persons who contributed to the creation or development of
Sellers Intellectual Property Assets of the rights to such contributions.
(e) Seller holds all right, title and interest in and to the patent applications,
service mark applications and trademark applications identified in Schedule 2.11 (the
Applications). To the Knowledge of Seller, no Person other than Seller is
using the trademarks, service marks or patents covered by the Applications, and Seller
has not knowingly permitted any other Person to use the trademarks, service marks or
patents described in the Applications. There are no actions, suits, proceedings,
outstanding claims or demands instituted, pending or, to Sellers Knowledge, threatened
against Seller in respect of its rights in the trademarks, service marks and patents
contained in the Applications. All patents or patent applications included in the
Intellectual Property Assets are subsisting, valid and enforceable, in whole or in part,
and all maintenance fees have been paid to date and for at least three months after
Closing.
(g) The Intellectual Property Assets do not contain computer code that is required
to be (a) disclosed in source code format to third parties; (b) licensed to third
parties for the purpose of making derivative works; or (c) redistributable to third
parties at no charge.

Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense of

other
expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an

affect its business or operations in any materially adverse manner; (ii) is reasonably likely to
result in material liabilities which may not be fully indemnified hereunder; (iii) is reasonably
likely have a significant adverse impact on the business or the financial condition of the

Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses
available to it which are in conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party; provided,
however, that in no event shall an Indemnifying Party be required to pay fees and expenses under
this indemnity for more than one firm of attorneys (in addition to local counsel) in any
jurisdiction in any one legal action or group of related legal actions. No Indemnifying Party or
Indemnified Party will enter into any settlement with respect to such Third Party Claim without the
prior written consent of the other party unless such settlement (a) requires solely the payment of
money damages by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be and (b)
includes, without limitation, as an unconditional term thereof the release by the claimant or the
plaintiff of the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, and the persons
for whom the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, is acting or who are
acting on behalf of the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, from all
liability in respect of the proceeding giving rise to the Third Party Claim.
