(ii) In order to secure Seller's obligations
hereunder and to indemnify Buyer pursuant to this Agreement,
Buyer shall deposit on the Closing Date with the Escrow Agent
an amount equal to $650,000 by wire transfer to a separate
account specified in writing by the Escrow Agent (the "Escrow
Fund"), which amount the Escrow Agent shall hold for the
benefit of Buyer and Seller pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.
The aggregate amount paid by Buyer pursuant to Sections
2(d)(i) and (ii) is referred to herein as the "Preliminary Purchase
Price." The Preliminary Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment
as set forth in Section 2(e) below.
(e) Preparation of Net Working Capital Statements.
(i) On the day prior to the Closing Date, Buyer and
Seller shall prepare and attach to this Agreement as Exhibit A
a draft statement (the "Estimated Net Working Capital
Statement") of the Estimated Net Working Capital (as defined
below). The "Estimated Net Working Capital" shall mean the
difference between the book value of the Acquired Assets that
are current assets and the book value of the Assumed
Liabilities that are current liabilities, in each case
determined as of the close of business on the day before the
Closing Date on
7
a pro forma basis as though the Parties had not consummated
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to
the foregoing, the Estimated Net Working Capital shall be
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a basis consistent with the
preparation of Buyer's financial statements; provided,
however, that (i) no amounts shall be excluded from such
calculation solely because such amounts are or would be
deemed to be immaterial under generally accepted accounting
principles, and (ii) assets, liabilities, gains, losses,
revenues, and expenses in interim periods or as of dates
other than year-end (which normally are determined through
the application of so-called interim accounting conventions
or procedures) will be determined through full application
of the procedures used in preparing Buyer's year end financial
statements.
(ii) If the amount of the Estimated Net Working
Capital is less than $400,000, then the amount by which it is
less than $400,000 shall be deducted from the Preliminary
Purchase Price. If the amount of the Estimated Net Working
Capital is greater than $400,000, then the amount by which it
is greater than $400,000 shall be added to the Preliminary
Purchase Price.
(iii) Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Buyer
will prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the "Net
Working Capital Statement") of the Net Working Capital. The
"Net Working Capital" shall mean the difference between the
book value of the Acquired Assets that are current assets and
the book value of the Assumed Liabilities that are current
liabilities, in each case determined as of the close of
business on the Closing Date on a pro forma basis as though
the Parties had not consummated the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, the Net Working
Capital shall be calculated in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent
with the preparation of Buyer's financial statements;
provided, however, that (i) no amounts shall be excluded from
such calculation solely because such amounts are or would be
deemed to be immaterial under generally accepted accounting
principles, and (ii) assets, liabilities, gains, losses,
revenues, and expenses in interim periods or as of dates other
than year-end (which normally are determined through the
application of so-called interim accounting conventions or
procedures) will be determined through full application of the
procedures used in preparing Buyer's year end financial
statements.
(iv) If Seller has any objection to the Net Working
Capital Statement, it will deliver a detailed statement
describing its objections to Buyer within 30 days after
receiving the Net Working Capital Statement. If Seller does
not give notice of an objection within such time period, then
the Seller shall be deemed to have agreed to and accepted the
Net Working Capital Statement. If Seller has any objections to
the Net Working Capital Statement, Buyer and Seller will use
reasonable efforts to resolve any such objections. Buyer will
revise the Net Working Capital Statement as appropriate to
reflect the actual Net Working Capital, as determined by the
Parties upon resolution of any objections raised by Seller.
8
(v) If the Final Net Working Capital, as determined
pursuant to Section 2(e)(iv) above, is more than the Estimated
Net Working Capital, then Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount
equal to the difference by wire transfer or delivery of other
immediately available funds within three business days after
the date on which the Net Working Capital Statement finally is
determined pursuant to Section 2(e)(iv) above. If the Final
Net Working Capital, as determined pursuant to Section
2(e)(iv) above, is less than the Estimated Net Working
Capital, then Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to
the difference by wire transfer or delivery of other
immediately available funds within three business days after
the date on which the Net Working Capital Statement finally
is determined pursuant to Section 2(e)(iv) above; provided,
however, in the event Buyer has an Indemnifiable Claim which
has not been finally resolved pursuant to the terms of the
Escrow Agreement and the amount of the Indemnifiable Claim
exceeds the Escrow Fund or is not known or determinable by
Buyer, then any amount otherwise payable by Buyer to Seller
pursuant to the terms of this Section 2(e)(v) shall be
delivered to Escrow Agent to hold in escrow, as security and
collateral for the Escrow Obligations, pursuant to the terms
and conditions of the Escrow Agreement.
(vi) The Preliminary Purchase Price as adjusted by
Section 2(e)(v) is referred to as the "Purchase Price."
(f) The Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place at the offices of
Buyer in Little Rock, Arkansas on the date of this Agreement (the
"Closing Date").
(g) Deliveries at the Closing. At the Closing, (i) Seller,

termination (except as contemplated by this Agreement), and to the
Knowledge of Seller no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of
time would constitute a breach or default or permit termination (except as

Network. Seller has done or caused to be done all things and taken all
actions necessary to cause Buyer to become a member in good standing of
each Network and to obtain all interest and rights related thereto such

Seller as currently conducted.

(d) Brokers' Fees. Buyer has no Liability or obligation to pay any
fees or commissions to any broker, finder or agent with respect to the

respect to the period following the Closing.
(a) General. In case at any time after the Closing any further action
is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each
of the Parties will take such further action (including the execution and
delivery of such further instruments and documents) as the other Party
reasonably may request, all the sole cost and expense of the requesting
Party (unless the requesting Party is entitled to indemnification therefor
under Section 6 below). Seller acknowledges and agrees that from and after
the Closing, Buyer will be entitled to possession of all documents, books,
records (including Tax records), agreements and financial data of any sort
relating to Seller. Buyer shall provide Seller with such access, during
normal working hours, to such documents, books, records (including Tax
Records) agreement and financial data as is reasonably required by Seller
in order to prepare any Tax Returns or otherwise comply with any legal
requirement applicable to the Seller after the Closing.
(b) Litigation Support. In the event and for so long as any Party
actively is contesting or defending against any action, suit, proceeding,
hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand against a person
that is not a Party in connection with (i) any transaction contemplated
under this Agreement or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status,
condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action,
failure to act or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving

Party and its counsel in the contest or defense, make available its
personnel and provide such testimony and access to its books and records as

sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending Party (unless the
contesting or defending Party is entitled to indemnification therefor under
Section 6 below).
24
(c) Transition; Sales Referrals. Neither Parent nor Seller will take
any action that is designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging
any lessor, licensor, customer, supplier or other business associate of
Seller from maintaining the same business relationships with Buyer after
the Closing as it maintained with Seller prior to the Closing. Subject to
any applicable confidentiality and privacy obligations of Seller, and in
accordance with Seller's business objectives, as from time to time
constituted, for a period of 3 years after the Closing, Seller will use its
reasonable efforts to provide to Buyer's employees designated in writing
from time to time by Buyer with the name, location and primary contact name
for any customer of Seller who makes an inquiry to Seller about the
products and/or services of Buyer relating to the Acquired Assets. The
provisions of this Section 5(c) shall neither require nor permit Seller to
promote or market Buyer's services or products.
(d) Confidentiality. Each of Parent and Seller will treat and hold as
such all of the Confidential Information, refrain from using any of the
Confidential Information except in connection with this Agreement and
deliver promptly to Buyer or destroy, at the request and option of Buyer,
all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information
which are in its possession. In the event that either Parent or Seller is
requested or required (by oral question or request for information or
documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil
investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential
Information, Parent or Seller, as the case may be, will notify Buyer
promptly of the request or requirement so that Buyer may seek an
appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of
this Section 5(d). If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt
of a waiver hereunder, Parent or Seller is compelled to disclose any
Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt,
Parent or Seller may disclose the Confidential Information to the tribunal;
provided, however, that Parent or Seller shall use its reasonable efforts
to obtain, at the request of Buyer, an order or other assurance that
confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential
Information required to be disclosed as Buyer shall designate.
(e) Solicitation of Transferred Employees. For a period of five years
commencing on the date hereof, without the prior written consent of Buyer,
none of Parent or its Affiliates will (or will assist or encourage others
to), directly or indirectly, solicit to hire (or cause or seek to cause to
leave the employ of Buyer) any of the Transferred Employees or any Persons
who may be hired by Buyer after the date hereof to work with or operate the
Acquired Assets.
(f) Recruiting of Employees. For a period of 18 months from the
Closing Date, Buyer shall notify Seller, promptly following its occurrence,
of any lay off involving more than 10 employees who, as part of their
principal job responsibility with Buyer's Integrated Financial Solutions

shall notify Buyer, promptly following its occurrence, of any lay off of
more than 10 employees from Seller's software division.

Closing, neither Parent nor Seller will directly or indirectly through any
Affiliate perform for any
25
DASH client (or contact, call on, solicit, or take away, or attempt to
contact, call on, solicit or take away, any DASH client of Buyer for
the purpose of performing) any ATM processing and/or related
settlement services. For purposes of applying this paragraph, a "DASH
client" is defined as an entity for whom Buyer provides ATM processing
and/or related settlement services.

reasonable best efforts to assist Buyer in relocating from the
premises to be subleased from Parent pursuant to the sublease executed
by Buyer and Parent contemporaneously with this Agreement.

merger or successor liability, under Environmental, Health
and Safety Requirements or otherwise by operation of law);
or
(B) any Liability of Seller for unpaid Taxes with

2(a)(ii) above or otherwise), including without limitation
any claim or allegation by IBM Credit Corporation or its
Affiliates or any other third party that it has or claims
any rights in or to the assets listed in Exhibit D hereto.
(F) any direct or indirect claim or allegation by IBM
Credit Corporation or its Affiliates or any other third
party resulting from or arising out of Buyer's access to
and/or use of the assets listed in Exhibit D hereto prior to
the time when title to such assets vests in Buyer free and
clear of all Security Interests.
(c) Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of Seller.
(i) In the event Buyer breaches any of its representations,
warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement and, if
there is an applicable survival period pursuant to Section 6(a)

Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller from and against the entirety of
any Adverse Consequences Seller may suffer through and after the

Consequences Seller may suffer after the end of any
27
applicable survival period) resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in
the nature of or caused by the breach (or the alleged breach).
(ii) Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller from and against the entirety
of any Adverse Consequences Seller may suffer resulting from, arising out

Party") with respect to any matter (a "Third Party Claim") which may give
rise to a claim for indemnification against the other Party (the
"Indemnifying Party") under this Section 6, then the Indemnified Party
shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided,
however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying
the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any
obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the
Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced.
(ii) The Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the
Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (A) the Indemnifying Party
provides the Indemnified Party with evidence acceptable to the Indemnified
Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to
defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification
obligations hereunder, (B) the Third Party Claim involves only money
damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief, (C)
settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party
Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely
to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing
business interests of the Indemnified Party and (D) the Indemnifying Party
conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently.
(iii) So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of
the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 6(d)(ii) above, (A) the

settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim (provided that the
Indemnified Party consults with and obtains the consent from, the
Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), (B) the Indemnifying Party
will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and
28
periodically for the costs of defending against the Third
Party Claim (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses) and (C) the Indemnifying Party will remain
responsible for any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified
Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating
to, in the nature of or caused by the Third Party Claim to
the fullest extent provided in this Section 6.

take into account the time cost of money in determining Adverse
Consequences for purposes of this Section 6. All indemnification
payments under this Section 6 shall be deemed adjustments to the
Purchase Price.
(f) Other Indemnification Provisions. The foregoing
indemnification provisions and the provisions of the Escrow
Agreement are in addition to and not in derogation of, any
statutory, equitable or common law remedy any Party may have for
breach of representation, warranty or covenant (including,
without limitation, any such remedy arising under Environmental,
Health and Safety Requirements) any Party may have with respect
to Seller, the Acquired Assets or the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement.
