NOW
THEREFORE,
in
consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:
Section
1. Cash
Payment by the Company; Closing.
Upon YA
Global’s execution of this Agreement and compliance with sections 4, 5 and 6
below (the “Closing”),
the
Company shall pay to YA Global $700,000 by wire transfer in immediately
available funds (the “Cash Payment”).
Section
2. Deferred
Payment.
At
the
Closing, Resurgence Partners shall purchase all but $150,000 of the Debentures
(the “Assigned
Debentures”) from
YA
Global, by executing the Non-Recourse Assignment attached hereto as Schedule
2.
(The
debentures that YA Global retains shall be referred to herein as the
“YA
Global Debentures”).
The
security interest held by YA Global in the Company’s assets shall be
subordinated to the security interest in all of its now owned or hereafter
acquired personal property of the Company, including the Company’s software (the
“Collateral”)
held
by Resurgence Partners following its purchase of the Debentures, as set forth
in
the Intercreditor Agreement of even date herewith in the form attached hereto
as
Schedule
3
pursuant
to which Resurgence Partners will have the authority to make all decisions
regarding the security on behalf of itself and YA Global. In the event that
the
Company files for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code,
Resurgence Partners shall, within three (3) days of entry of a final plan of
reorganization, or other final disposition of the bankruptcy action execute
a
note in the form attached hereto as Schedule
4,
(the
“Note”)
whose
principal amount shall be $150,000, and which shall bear interest at 10% per
annum, such interest to accrue and be paid annually, and shall have a maturity
date two years from the date of this Agreement. The Note shall be secured by
a
pledge of shares equal to five and one half percent (5.5%) of the number of
shares in the Company (or in any successor entity or entities of the Company)
received by Resurgence in the final plan of reorganization, or other final
disposition of the bankruptcy action. The pledge shall be implemented by
execution of the Pledge Agreement attached hereto as Schedule
5.
Section
3. Exercise
of Conversion Rights.
Immediately prior to the Closing, YA Global intends to issue a notice of
conversion (the “Conversion
Notice”) to
obtain
shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the terms of its outstanding
Convertible Debentures that will allow YA Global to own up to 9.99% of the
outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock pre-Reverse Split. The Company
agrees to honor the notice of conversion and issue the number of shares of
Common Stock set forth in the conversion notice. The Company agrees further
that, upon execution of this Agreement, all limitations on share ownership
contained in the YA Global Debentures shall be amended to be 9.99% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Section
4. Termination
of the YA/Crosshill Intercreditor Agreement. YA
Global
hereby agrees that the YA/Crosshill Intercreditor Agreement shall be terminated
at Closing. YA Global acknowledges that concurrently with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, Crosshill is terminating its agreements with the
Company and releasing its lien on the assets of the Company, in exchange for
a
cash payment (the “Cash Payment”). Crosshill’s agreement to accept the Cash
Payment is being made in reliance upon YA Global’s express termination of the
YA/Crosshill Intercreditor Agreement and YA Global’s Agreement to waive any and
all interest in the Cash Payment. YA Global hereby waives any and all interest
in the Cash Payment and agrees that Crosshill may rely on this Agreement in
terminating its agreements and releasing the collateral pledged to
Crosshill.
2
Section
5. Sale
of the Debentures.
At
Closing YA Global shall sell, and Resurgence Partners will purchase, the
Assigned Debentures. The terms of such sale shall be as set forth in the
Non-Recourse Assignment between Resurgence Partners and YA Global of even date
herewith, which shall provide for the ownership of the Assigned Debentures
by
Resurgence Partners contemporaneously with the Closing. YA Global shall have
three (3) days from the date of the Closing to physically deliver the assigned
debentures to Resurgence Partners. In the event that such assigned debentures
are not delivered in accordance with this section 5 YA Global authorizes the
Company to cancel the Assigned Debentures and reissue replacement debentures
that are consistent with this Agreement.
Section
6. Cancellation
of Outstanding Warrants.
At
Closing, the Warrants, shall be immediately cancelled on the books of the
Company with no additional action by YA Global or Resurgence Partners necessary
to effectuate such cancellation. YA Global shall physically deliver the Warrants
to the Company within five (5) days of the Closing.
Section
7. Mutual
Release.
In
consideration of the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement,
the
Company and YA Global do hereby RELEASE AND FOREVER DISCHARGE the other party
and its subsidiaries and its respective affiliates, parents, joint ventures,
officers, directors, shareholders, interest holders, members, managers,
employees, consultants, representatives, successors and assigns, heirs,
executors and administrators from all causes of action, suits, debts, claims
and
demands whatsoever known or unknown, at law, in equity or otherwise, which
either party had, now has, or hereafter may have, arising from or relating
in
any way to the Company’s status as a debtor of YA Global on or prior to the date
hereof, any agreement between the Company and YA Global entered into prior
to
the date hereof, any claims for reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, and
including, without limitation, any claims relating to fees, penalties,
liquidated damages, and indemnification for losses, liabilities and
expenses. This release is effective without regard to the legal nature of
the claims raised and without regard to whether any such claims are based upon
tort, equity, or implied or express contract. It is expressly understood
and agreed that this release shall operate as a clear and unequivocal waiver
by
both the Company and YA Global of any such claim whatsoever. The terms of this
mutual release shall not, however, preclude an action seeking
to enforce the parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement, or any
action by YA Global to enforce its rights and remedies under the
Note.
