(a) Buyer's obligation to purchase the Shares and to close the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement is expressly
conditioned upon Seller's performance of each and every
obligation to be performed by Seller prior to or as of the
Closing Date, including, but not limited to, those actions set
forth in Paragraph 10, below.
(b) Sellers' obligation to transfer the Shares and to close the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement is expressly
conditioned upon Buyer's performance of each and every
obligation to be performed by Buyer prior to the closing Date,
and the complete satisfaction of each and every one of the
following conditions:
(1) Buyer shall enter into a consulting contract with R. Xxxxx
Xxxxxxxx, (AHatfield@) current Executive Vice President of NDFC.
This contract shall be for a period of three years and shall
call for Xxxxxxxx to, in addition to serving as president and
chief executive officer of NDFC after the Closing Date pursuant
to a contract with NDFC, serve as a consultant to Buyer
regarding its financial processing activities. It will include a
stock incentive plan which will call for Xxxxxxxx to receive one
million six hundred thousand (1,600,000) shares of NDFC's stock
from Buyer payable in equal quarterly payments during the term
of the contract. Those payments shall continue during the
contract so long as Xxxxxxxx remains available to serve as a
consultant to Buyer at reasonable times and places, and does not
voluntarily terminate or is not involuntarily terminated for
cause (which shall be defined as willfully breaching his
employment contract; habitually neglecting his duties; or,
committing acts of dishonesty, fraud, misrepresentation or other
acts of moral turpitude that would prevent the effective
performance of his duties) from his employment contract with
NDFC. The contract shall also give Xxxxxxxx the right to vote
all 1,600,000 of the shares during the term of the agreement,
even if not all shares have been transferred, and shall provide
that, on breach by eConnect, the remaining shares shall be
immediately transferred. Additionally, Buyer shall pay Xxxxxxxx
a cash salary under the contract equal to the actual Federal and
State income tax he pays as a result of the stock transfers;
such payments to be made on or before the due date of said
taxes.
(2) Buyer shall provide operating capital to NDFC in the amount
of one million dollars ($1,000,000.00). Buyer shall also
transfer one million (1,000,000) shares of Section 144 stock of
Buyer, in addition to any other Buyer stock contemplated under
this Agreement, to NDFC. When negotiable, NDFC shall have the
right to sell, transfer, or otherwise utilize said one million
(1,000,000) shares for operating capital, at NDFC's discretion.
Said stock shall be transferred in such a way that, except for
the passage of time, no further action will be required of any
party before possession and ownership of such shares are legally
transferred to NDFC. Said capital contributions of cash and
stock shall occur at the Closing.
(3) Buyer shall provide Sellers, at the Closing, a certificate
from the Secretary of Buyer that the Board of Directors and
Shareholders of Buyer has approved the transaction as provided
in this Agreement and that the officers executing this Agreement
have full authority to do so as well as execute all other
documents and instruments necessary to carry out the transaction
contemplated by this Agreement.
10. Pre-Purchase Operation and Structure. In order to
accomplish the mutual intent of the parties, the parties agree that prior to
the Closing Date, and contingent on the close (i.e. if this transaction is
not closed, these actions will be nullified), Sellers will accomplish the
following:
(a) Change the corporate structure such that NDFC will no longer be a
California Statutory Close Corporation;
(b) Cause NDFC to issue the currently authorized, but
unissued shares of NDFC to bring the total authorized and issue
shares to ten million (10,000,000).
(c) Sellers each will agree to retire thirty percent
(30%) of their shares for a total of three million (3,000,000)
shares of NDFC stock, which will thus become authorized, but
not issued stock. The parties agree that two million
(2,000,000) of those shares will be designated for an Employee
Stock Incentive Plan which will be created and maintained by
NDFC after the Closing Date. The balance of one million
(1,000,000) authorized, but unissued shares will be used at the
discretion of NDFC for operating capital.
(d) Cause NDFC to enter into an employment contract
with R. Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx (AHatfield@) to serve as the president
and chief executive officer of NDFC after the Closing Date for a
period of three years. The contract shall call for reasonable
salary and benefits of not less than those currently received by
the existing president of NDFC. It shall provide that Xxxxxxxx
may not be terminated except for cause, which shall be defined
as existing only if he willfully breaches or habitually neglects
the reasonable duties of his office or commits an act of
dishonesty, fraud, misrepresentation or other acts of moral
turpitude, that would prevent the effective performance of his
duties.
11. Post Purchase Operation and Structure. It is the intent of
Buyer and Seller that certain restrictions and limitations be
placed on the operation of NDFC after the Closing Date.
Additionally, the parties have reached certain agreements
concerning the operational plans for NDFC, which shall bind the
parties after the Close. These restrictions, limitations and
plans, shall include the following:
(a) As indicated in Paragraph 9(b)(1) above, it
is a condition precedent to closing, that R. Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx
("Xxxxxxxx") enter into an employment contract with Buyer under
which he shall act as president and chief executive officer of
NDFC and receive one million six hundred thousand (1,600,000)
shares of Buyers stock under a stock incentive plan.
(b) The parties agree that it is their intent, and
that it is in the best interests of Buyers, Buyer's
shareholders, Sellers, NDFC and all other concerned there be an
initial public offering (IPO) of NDFC stock within one year of
the Closing Date. The parties agree that they will cooperate to
make a bona fide and good faith effort to accomplish the IPO.
Further, Buyer agrees to contribute additional capitol to NDFC
for the purpose of retaining an Investment Banking firm or other
similar consultant, to advise the parties on an appropriate
method for structuring the IPO. However, the parties agree
that, subject to the advise of the consultants, they would
intend to authorize an additional two million shares of NDFC,
and then do a five for one split, which would result in there
being sixty million total shares of authorized stock of NDFC.
The then anticipated share distribution would be as follows:
10,000,000 To be sold to the public
10,000,000 Sellers
17,000,000 Buyers
10,000,000 Employee Incentive Plan
8,000,000 Xxxxxxxx
5,000,000 Unissued and held for generation of capital
12. Extension Agreement. The parties acknowledge that notwithstanding any
other provision of this agreement, the parties have entered into an
extension agreement. The Closing Date has already been extended
and consideration has been received by both Sellers and NDFC.
That consideration includes payments to NDFC of fifty thousand
($50,000.00) dollars in September, 2000 and October, 2000 and
transfer of 240,000 shares of eConnect stock to NDFC. Additionally, should
Buyer be unable to close for any reason on or before October 31, 2000, then
the Closing Date will be extended to January 2, 2001, if and only if Buyer
agrees to and does all of the following:
(a) On or before November 1, 2000, Buyer pays to the
trust account of Xxxx X. Xxxxxx, for the benefit of Sellers and
NDFC equally, five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00). Said
funds to be used by them as they determine in their sole
discretion;
(b) Pays fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) to NDFC
on November 1, 2000, and fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) to
NDFC on December 1, 2000. Said funds to be used by NDFC as it
shall determine in its sole discretion;
(c) Should Buyer fail to perform any of the acts
provided in Paragraph 12 (a)or (b) above, and after five (5)
days written notice from Sellers or NDFC, fail to cure any such
failure, then the extension to purchase shall immediately
terminate. NDFC and Sellers may retain all consideration paid
hereunder, and Buyer shall have no rights of any kind with
respect to NDFC or Sellers.
(d) All consideration previously paid to NDFC for any
reason or referenced in Paragraphs 12(a) and (b) is paid in
consideration of this extension and shall not be credited to the
purchase price provided for in the Agreement. All such
consideration shall belong to NDFC or Sellers, respectively,
whether or not Buyer ever is able to close on the purchase of
NDFC shares. Sellers and NDFC shall have no duty to account to
Buyer for said funds and may use such funds as they determine in
their sole discretion.
(e) During the extension period provided herein,
Sellers may negotiate to sell their shares to other parties, but
Sellers shall not sell or transfer their shares of NDFC (except
a conveyance or transfer by gift, bequest, or inheritance, which
shall be subject to this agreement) to any other party during
the extension period.
(f) Should Buyer fail to make any payments as
provided for herein, or fail to perform under the Agreement,
including any extensions thereof as provided herein, then
Buyer shall fully release and discharge Sellers and NDFC, and
their representatives, successors, assigns, and heirs from all
claims, demands, actions, debts, controversies, liabilities, and
damages, including, without limitation, those arising out of or
relating to Buyer=s rights under this Agreement; Buyer further
agrees never to commence, aid, prosecute, or cause to be
commenced or prosecuted against Sellers or NDFC, or their
agents, representatives, successors, assigns, or heirs any
action or proceeding based directly or indirectly on this
Agreement; Buyer further agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold
Sellers and NDFC, and their agents, representatives, successors,
assigns, and heirs harmless against all claims, demands,
actions, debts, controversies, liabilities, and damages,
including court costs and attorney=s fees, arising from or
related to any action or proceeding brought by or prosecuted by
or on behalf of Buyer, its shareholders, officers, agents,
employees, investors, successors or, assigns, or by third
parties, regulatory agencies of any nature or any other party or
entity, which is contrary to this agreement, or results from,
directly or indirectly, this Agreement. Buyer agrees that this
is a general release and expressly waives Civil Code Section
1542, which provides:
"A general release does not extend to claims which the
creditor does not know or expect to exist in his favor at the
time of executing the release, which if known by him must have
materially affected his settlement with the debtor."
13. Other Covenants and Agreements.
(a) Sellers agree to pay and discharge and to indemnify,
defend, and hold Buyer and the property of Buyer, including the
Shares purchased by Buyer, free and harmless from any and all

Sellers' operation of its business which shall relate, arise, or
accrue prior to and until the sale of the Shares, which claims

may make payment and withhold the amount thereof from any
payment owing to Sellers.
(b) Buyer agrees to pay and discharge and to indemnify, defend,
and hold Sellers and the property of Sellers free and harmless

of any representation or warranty by Buyer contained in the
purchase documentation.
(d) The parties acknowledge that the financial information,
customer list, sales information, records, general files,
papers, and documents relating to the respective businesses are
secret, confidential, and sensitive information and would be
harmful if disclosed to competitors, suppliers, members, or any
other person or entity. The parties shall not disclose any such
trade secrets, directly or indirectly, or use them in any way,
whether for commercial purposes or otherwise.
14. Expenses. At the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay all costs
and expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred or to be
incurred by Seller or NDFC in negotiating and preparing this
Agreement and all prior proposed agreements relating to the

parties against whom enforcement of the modification or
discharge is sought.
18. Waiver. Any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement
may be waived, in writing, at any time by the party entitled to

it applies on a subsequent occasion or of any other term or
condition hereof.
19. Nonassignability. This Agreement shall not be assigned by

in this Agreement, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of

obligations imposed by this Agreement, it would be extremely

in damages will be adequate.

defeat the effectiveness of notice actually received by the
addressee.

an attorney are required by any party to secure the performance
hereof or otherwise upon the breach or default of another party,
or if any judicial remedy or arbitration is necessary to enforce
or interpret any provision of this Agreement or the rights and
duties of any person in relation thereto, the prevailing party
shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees, costs, and
other expenses, in addition to any other relief to which he may
be entitled. Any award of damages following judicial remedy or
arbitration as a result of the breach of this Agreement or any
of its provisions shall include an award of prejudgment interest
from the date of the breach at the maximum amount of interest
allowed by law.

signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed
together and shall constitute one agreement.

full force and effect and shall in no way be impaired or
invalidated.

and the interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall
be governed by the law of California, excluding its conflict of
laws rules.
