MERGER AGREEMENT

THIS MERGER AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of August 5, 2005 by and among Intelius Inc., a Delaware corporation (“INTELIUS”), QWIL Acquisition Inc., an Oregon corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of INTELIUS (“QAI”), QWIL Company, Inc., an Oregon corporation (“QWIL”) and those shareholders of QWIL identified on Exhibit C hereto (the “QWIL Shareholders”).

WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of INTELIUS, QAI and QWIL desire to effect, and have approved on the terms, and subject to the conditions, of this Agreement, a business combination of INTELIUS and QWIL in which QAI will merge with and into QWIL (such merger being referred to herein as the “Merger”), pursuant to which among other things, the holders of the then outstanding shares of the common stock, no par value per share, of QWIL (the “Shares”) will be entitled to receive, in the aggregate, Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) and Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares of INTELIUS Class A Common Stock (the “Equity Consideration”), par value $0.0001 per share (collectively, the Cash Consideration and Equity Consideration are referred to herein as the “Aggregate Consideration”).

In consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained herein, and in order to set forth the conditions upon which this Agreement and the Plan of Merger (attached hereto as Exhibit A) shall be carried out, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows.

ARTICLE I. THE MERGER

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan of Merger, INTELIUS, QAI and QWIL agree as follows:

1.1 Effective Time. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions specified in Articles VIII, IX and X, the Merger will become effective upon the filing of Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Oregon or upon such later date as may be specified in such Articles of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

1.2 Conversion of Shares. At the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of QWIL Common Stock shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into the right to receive Five Hundred (500) shares of INTELIUS Class A Common Stock. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer book of QWIL shall be closed, and no transfer of shares of QWIL Common Stock shall thereafter be made.

1.3 Surrender of Certificates. After the Effective Time, each holder of an outstanding certificate or certificates previously representing shares of QWIL Common Stock (“QWIL Certificate(s)”), upon surrender of the holder’s QWIL Certificate(s) to the exchange agent appointed by INTELIUS, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, X.X, (the “Exchange

Agent”), together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, shall receive a certificate or certificates representing the number of whole shares of Equity Consideration to which the holder shall have been entitled pursuant to the Plan of Merger, and a cash payment equal to Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000) for each share of QWIL Common Stock so surrendered. After the Effective Time, each QWIL Certificate shall represent ownership of the number of shares of INTELIUS Class A Common Stock that the holder of the QWIL Certificate shall be entitled to receive. Whenever a dividend is declared by INTELIUS on INTELIUS Class A Common Stock after the Effective Time, the declaration shall include dividends on all shares issued and outstanding, including those with respect to which no certificates have been delivered hereunder; however, no distribution of such dividend shall be required to be made to any holder of QWIL Certificate(s) until the QWIL Certificate(s) representing such shares, and a properly completed letter of transmittal, shall have been delivered to INTELIUS by the person, firm, trust, estate, corporation, or business organization (“Person”) entitled to such dividend. Upon delivery of such QWIL Certificate(s) and letter of transmittal, or as soon as practicable thereafter, such Person shall receive from INTELIUS an amount equal to all dividends (without interest thereon and less the amount of taxes, if any, required to be withheld or paid thereon by INTELIUS) on the shares of INTELIUS Class A Common Stock formerly represented by the surrendered QWIL Certificate(s), that shall have been declared or paid between the Effective Time and the date of delivery of such QWIL Certificate(s) .

1.4 Adjustments. If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, there shall be a change in the number of shares of issued and outstanding QWIL Common Stock or INTELIUS Class A Common Stock by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, or exchange of shares, or if a stock or rights dividend thereon shall be declared with a record date within said period, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Conversion Ratio set forth in paragraph 1.2, i.e., 500:1; provided, however, that there shall be no adjustment of the Conversion Ratio by reason of INTELIUS issuing or agreeing to issue any INTELIUS Class A Common Stock for cash, for property, in exchange for shares of stock of any other corporation, or on account of mergers or consolidations before, after, or simultaneously with the consummation of the Merger.

1.5 Transfer of Assets and Liabilities. The assets, equipment, domain names, cash accounts and accounts receivables owned by QWIL are set forth in Schedules A—C hereto, and the intellectual property owned by QWIL is set forth in Schedule 4.9. The liabilities of QWIL are set forth in Schedule D hereto. At the Effective Time, the title to all assets, real estate, equipment, personal property, intellectual property, all other property and all other unscheduled assets shall be vested in QWIL, without any further act or deed, and QWIL shall be responsible and liable for all the liabilities of both QWIL and QAI.

Subject to the provisions of this paragraph 1.5 and the Indemnification provisions in paragraph 12.4, if additional QWIL liabilities are discovered at any time that were not disclosed in Schedule D or in the QWIL Unaudited Statements as defined in paragraph 4.3 (“Undisclosed QWIL Liabilities”), QWIL will be responsible for the first aggregate $25,000 of all such aggregate Undisclosed QWIL Liabilities, and the QWIL Shareholders

will be responsible for the remainder of all such Undisclosed QWIL Liabilities up to the total amount of the Cash Consideration received by them as part of this Merger Agreement. QWIL or INTELIUS will be responsible for any Undisclosed QWIL Liabilities exceeding the amount of the Cash Consideration.

The debt to Software Sciences Ltd. of $525,000, as set forth in Schedule D (the “Software Sciences Debt”), will be paid without interest within 15 days of the Effective Time, and the debt to Xxxxxx Xxxx and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx of $155,000, as set forth in Schedule D (the “Xxxxxxx Debt”), will be paid without interest within six (6) months following the Effective Time, provided no Undisclosed QWIL Liabilities are discovered before those dates. The Software Sciences Debt and the Xxxxxxx Debt will be reduced by the aggregate amount beyond $25,000 of any such Undisclosed QWIL Liabilities, and the balance shall be paid on the designated dates to Software Sciences and Xxxxxx Xxxx and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, respectively. If any Undisclosed QWIL Liabilities are discovered after six months from the Effective Time, they will be subject to this paragraph 1.5 and the Indemnification provisions in paragraph 12.4. If the Software Sciences Debt turns out to be less than $525,000, QWIL will only be obligated to pay the actual amount, and in no circumstances will QWIL be required to pay more than $525,000 for the Software Sciences Debt. If the Xxxxxxx Debt turns out to be less than $155,000, QWIL will only be obligated to pay the actual amount, and in no circumstances will QWIL be required to pay more than $155,000 for the Xxxxxxx Debt.

1.6 Payment of Cash Consideration. INTELIUS will pay the Cash Consideration to the QWIL Shareholders at the Effective Time. The QWIL Shareholders shall provide written instruction regarding such payment to INTELIUS at least three (3) business days prior to the Effective Time.

1.7 Non-Compete, Non-Disclosure and Employment Agreements. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxx Xx Xxxxxxx, will sign employment agreements at the Effective Time, which will include INTELIUS’ standard non-compete and non-disclosure agreements, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

ARTICLE IV. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES,
AND COVENANTS OF QWIL

QWIL hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to and with INTELIUS and QAI as follows:

4.1 Organization. QWIL is a corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Oregon. QWIL has no subsidiaries. QWIL has corporate power, and is duly authorized, to own, lease, and operate its properties, and to conduct its business as it is now being conducted. QWIL is duly qualified and/or licensed to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary. QWIL has delivered to INTELIUS and QAI complete and correct copies of its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws (certified by its Secretary) as in effect on the date hereof. There will be no changes in such Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws between the date hereof and the Effective Time without the written consent of INTELIUS and QAI.

4.2 Capital Stock. The authorized capital stock of QWIL consists of One Thousand (1,000) shares of QWIL Common Stock, all of which are issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, as set forth in Exhibit C. All such shares are, and all shares outstanding at the Effective Time will be, validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable, and none of the outstanding shares of QWIL Common Stock has been or will be issued in violation of the preemptive rights of any shareholder. QWIL does not have any outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants or other arrangements or commitments obligating it to issue, purchase, or sell shares of its capital stock, and no authorization therefore has been given.

4.3 Financial Statements. QWIL has delivered to INTELIUS copies of the following unaudited financial statements:

	(a)		Consolidated balance sheets of QWIL as of December 31, 2004 and from January 1 through June 30, 2005;

	(c)		Summary of income statements and balance sheets from 2000-2004.

The financial statements (including the notes thereto) referred to in subsections (a) through (c) of this Section 4.3 are hereinafter referred to as the “QWIL Unaudited Statements.” QWIL shall deliver to INTELIUS promptly after the issuance thereof any financial statements that QWIL may subsequently issue prior to the Effective Time with respect to annual or quarterly periods ending subsequent to those covered by the QWIL Unaudited Statements. As hereinafter used, the term “QWIL Unaudited Statements,” or the specific reference to any components thereof, shall include any such subsequently issued financial statements. The QWIL Unaudited Statements fairly present the financial position of QWIL as of the dates specified and the results and operations of QWIL in all material respects for the periods covered thereby, and QWIL does not have any liabilities of any nature (absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) that are not reflected or fully reserved against on the Latest Balance Sheet included in the QWIL Unaudited Statements (the “Latest Balance Sheet”) or included in the ordinary course of business by QWIL subsequent to the date of the Latest Balance Sheet. Since the Latest Balance Sheet, there has been no change in the assets or liabilities, or in the business or condition, financial or otherwise, or in the results of operations of QWIL which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on QWIL. Any liabilities that are later discovered but that do not appear in the QWIL Unaudited Statements will be subject to the provisions in paragraphs 1.5 and 12.4

4.4 Taxes. The amounts set forth as provisions for current and deferred taxes in the QWIL Unaudited Statements are sufficient for the payment of all unpaid federal, state, county, local, foreign, or other taxes (including any interest or penalties) of QWIL, accrued for or applicable to the periods ended on the respective dates of the QWIL Unaudited Statements and all years and periods prior thereto and for which QWIL may at said dates have been liable in their own right or as transferee of the assets of, or as successor to, any other corporation or entity. All federal, state, and local tax returns, reports, and declarations required to be filed by QWIL (i) have been duly prepared and filed in good faith for all past years, (ii) are true, correct and complete in all material respects, (iii) were prepared in substantial compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and (iv) all taxes that have become due and payable have been paid or are reflected as a liability on the Latest Balance Sheet included in the QWIL Unaudited Statements; provided, however, that QWIL has not filed any tax returns or paid any required taxes regarding personal property. Any extensions for the filing of federal and state tax returns are valid and meet all applicable return filing requirements, and the proper

federal and state tax returns for which an extension was not filed will at the Effective Time have been duly prepared and filed in good faith. No assessments, claims for collection, or deficiencies have been proposed by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or any state or local revenue authority that have not been adequately reserved for by QWIL. QWIL has complied in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to the payment and withholding of all local, state and federal taxes. There is no pending, or to QWIL’s actual knowledge, threatened audit, examination, investigation, dispute, deficiency assessment, claim or other administrative or judicial proceeding relating to any local, state or federal taxes that QWIL is or may be liable for. QWIL has withheld and paid all local, state and federal taxes required to have been withheld and paid in connection with any amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, stockholder or third party.

4.5 Accurate Disclosure. No representation, warranty, schedule, or certificate delivered hereunder by QWIL to INTELIUS contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein and herein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

4.6 Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.6, since July 31, 2005, QWIL has not:

(a) issued, sold, or delivered (or agreed or become obligated in any manner to issue, sell, or deliver) any stock, bonds, or other corporate securities (whether authorized and unissued or held in the treasury), or granted or agreed to grant any options, warrants, or other rights calling for the issue thereof;

(b) borrowed or agreed to borrow any funds or incurred, or become subject to any obligation or liability (absolute or contingent) except obligations and liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business;

(c) incurred or paid any obligation or liability (absolute or contingent) other than current liabilities reflected in or shown on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2005 referred to in Section 4.3, and current liabilities incurred since that date in the ordinary course of business;

(d) declared or made, or agreed to declare or make, any payment of dividends or distributions of cash, any assets of any kind whatsoever to shareholders, or purchased or redeemed, or agreed to purchase or redeem, any QWIL Common Stock;

(e) except in the ordinary course of business, sold or transferred, or agreed to sell or transfer, any of its assets, property, or rights, or canceled, or agreed to cancel, any debts or claims;

(f) entered into or agreed to enter into any agreement or arrangement granting any preferential rights to purchase any of its assets, property, or rights, or

requiring the consent of any party to the transfer and assignment of any such assets, property, or rights;

(j) increased the rate of compensation payable or to become payable by it to any of its officers or employees, other than normal salary increases made consistent with prior practice, or made any increase in benefits in any profit sharing, bonus, deferred compensation, insurance, pension, retirement, or other employee benefit plan, payment, or arrangement made to, for, or with any such officers or employees;

(k) mortgaged, pledged, or subjected to lien, charge, or other encumbrance any assets or properties, whether tangible or intangible, other than in the ordinary course of business;

(l) changed any accounting method or practice;

(m) purchased or acquired or agreed to purchase or acquire fixed assets or equipment costing in the aggregate in excess of $50,000;

(n) suffered any loss of employees or customers other than such losses as normally occur in the ordinary course of business;

(p) entered into any transaction other than in the ordinary course of business.

4.7 Title and Related Matters. Except as reflected in the QWIL Unaudited Statements, or as stated in Schedule D or 4.6, QWIL has good and marketable title to all the properties, interest in properties and assets (real and personal) reflected in Schedules A-C and 4.9, or in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 or June 30, 2005 referred to in Section 4.3, or acquired after December 31, 2004 (except properties, interests, and assets sold or otherwise disposed of since December 31, 2004, in the ordinary course of business), free and clear of all mortgages, liens, pledges, charges, and other encumbrances and imperfections except (i) mortgages and other encumbrances referred to in the notes to such balance sheet; (ii) liens of current taxes not yet due and payable; and (iii) such imperfections of title and easements as do not detract from or interfere with the present use

of the properties subject thereto or affected thereby, or otherwise impair present business operations at such properties. To the best of QWIL’s knowledge, all such equipment material to QWIL’s business is in good repair and operating order, ordinary wear and tear excepted. All leases pursuant to which QWIL lease any real property are valid and subsisting, and are not in default. Copies of all such leases will be made available to INTELIUS and QAI.

QWIL is not a party to any agreement or instrument, or subject to any charter or other restriction or any judgment, order, writ, injunction, decree, award, or administrative agreement that materially adversely affects, or in the future may (so far as QWIL can reasonably foresee) materially adversely affect the business, operations, prospects, properties, assets, or condition, financial or otherwise, of QWIL. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.11, QWIL is not a party to any transaction with any officer, director or shareholder of QWIL or any other entity in which any such person is an officer, director or shareholder.

4.12 No Conflict With Other Instruments. Except as previously disclosed to INTELIUS and QAI, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby, will not result in the breach of any term or provision of, or constitute a default under, or accelerate the performance required by, any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other agreement or instrument to which QWIL is or may be a party, or by which it is bound, or conflict with any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of QWIL.

(c) The foregoing representations and warranties are true and accurate as of the date hereof, shall be true and accurate as of the Effective Time and shall survive thereafter.

5.2 QWIL Shareholder Individual Representations.

Each of the QWIL Shareholders individually and on behalf of his marital community, represents and warrants as to such individual QWIL Shareholder as follows:

(b) He has the full right, power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform his obligations hereunder, and this Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by him, and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such QWIL Shareholder, enforceable against him in accordance with its terms.

(c) He is not a party to, subject to or bound by any agreement or any judgment, order, writ, prohibition, injunction or decree of any court or other governmental body which would prevent the execution or delivery of this Agreement or the surrender of the QWIL Shares pursuant to the terms hereof.

(d) He is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, provided, however, that Xxxx Xx Xxxxxxx shall not be deemed to have made this representation;

(e) The INTELIUS Stock to be received by him is for his own account, for investment purposes only, and not for the account of any other person, and not with a view to distribution, assignment, or resale to others, or to fractionalization in whole or in part, and the acquisition of the INTELIUS Stock is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) and the provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder (“Regulation D”). No other person has or will have a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the Equity Consideration received by him in the Merger and he will not sell, hypothecate, or otherwise transfer his Stock except in accordance with the Act and applicable state securities laws;

(f) INTELIUS and QAI are under no obligation under Oregon or federal law to register Equity Consideration on behalf of QWIL Shareholders or to assist in complying with any exemption from registration. QWIL Shareholders may not, directly or indirectly, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, give, subject to lien or security interest or otherwise dispose of or encumber (collectively called “Transfer”) any INTELIUS stock except as expressly permitted by this Agreement.

(g) In evaluating the suitability of an investment in the Company, he has not relied upon any representations or other information (whether oral or written) from INTELIUS that is inconsistent with any representation contained in this Agreement, and no oral or written representations have been made to him in connection with the INTELIUS Stock which were in any way inconsistent with the Agreement.

(j) He has carefully considered and has, to the extent he believes such discussion necessary, discussed with his professional legal, tax and financial advisers the suitability of an investment in INTELIUS for his particular tax and financial situation and he has determined that the INTELIUS Stock is a suitable investment. With the exception of statements and representations made by INTELIUS in this Merger Agreement, he is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of INTELIUS or any of its agents. Such QWIL Shareholder understands that he (and not INTELIUS) will be responsible for his own tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No representation has been made by INTELIUS or QAI, or either of their respective affiliates or agents, regarding the potential tax effect of the Merger on QWIL or the QWIL Shareholders.

(k) No federal or state agency has made any finding, determination, recommendation or endorsement of the INTELIUS Stock, and there can be no assurance as to the federal or state tax results of receipt of the INTELIUS Stock by the QWIL Shareholders.
