Seller and Purchaser shall, to the extent practicable, allow the other party reasonable time to review and comment on any such required release, announcement, or disclosure in advance of its issuance and use commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to reflect the reasonable and good faith comments of such other party, provided, however, that no party shall be prevented from making any disclosure required by applicable Law at the time so required.

-41-

6.6 Non-Disclosure of Seller Proprietary Information.

(a) Seller and Shareholder, by virtue of their involvement with and ownership interest in Seller, each recognize and acknowledge that it had and may continue to have access to confidential, proprietary, and highly sensitive information relating to the business of Seller, which are valuable, special, and unique assets of Seller (the “Seller Proprietary Information”). The Seller Proprietary Information includes information pertaining to:

(i) the identities of customers and clients with which or whom Seller does or seeks to do business, as well as the point of contact persons and decision-makers at these customers and clients, including their names, addresses, e-mail addresses, and positions;

(ii) the past or present purchasing history and the past and/or current job requirements of each past and/or existing customer and client;

(iii) the volume of business and the nature of the business relationship between Seller and its customers and clients;

(iv) the business plans and strategy of Seller, including customer or client assignments and rearrangements, sales and administrative staff expansions, marketing and sales plans and strategy, proposed adjustments in compensation of sales personnel, revenue, expense and profit projections, industry analyses, and any proposed or actual implemented technology changes;

(v) information regarding the employees and independent contractors of Seller, including their identities, skills, talents, knowledge, experience, and compensation;

(vi) the financial results and business condition of Seller;

(vii) computer programs and software developed by Seller and tailored to its needs by its employees, independent contractors, consultants, or vendors;

(viii) information relating to Seller’s engineers, designers, contractors, or persons likely to become engineers, designers, or contractors;

(ix) any past, present or future merchandise or supply sources of Seller; and

(x) system designs, procedure manuals, automated data programs, reports, and personnel procedures of Seller.

-42-

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Seller Proprietary Information” does not include the following:

(i) information that has become publicly known through no wrongful act of the receiving party;

(ii) information that has been rightfully received from a third party authorized by the party that is the owner, creator, or compiler thereof to make such disclosure without restriction;

(iii) information that has been approved or released by written authorization of the party that is the owner, creator, or compiler thereof; or

(iv) information that is being or has been disclosed pursuant to a valid court order after a reasonable attempt has been made to notify the party that is the owner, creator, or compiler thereof.

(c) In light of the foregoing, and as a material inducement to Purchaser and Axtive to enter into this Agreement and consummate the Asset Purchase, each of Seller and Shareholder hereby agree that for a period of two years and one day after the Closing Date (such time period to be referred to hereafter as the “Post-Closing Period”) it will not use, publish, disclose, or divulge, directly or indirectly, at any time, any Seller Proprietary Information for its own benefit or for the benefit of any person, entity, or corporation other than Seller, to any person who is not then a current employee of the Purchaser, without the express, written consent of Axtive, unless such disclosure is required by Law, provided, that prior to disclosing any Seller Proprietary Information pursuant to this clause, Seller or Shareholder, as the case may be, shall, to the extent possible, give prior written notice to Purchaser and Axtive and provide Purchaser and Axtive the opportunity to contest such disclosure. To the extent that Seller or Shareholder has obligations similar to those outlined in this Section 6.6 in any other agreement with Purchaser and/or Axtive, then the terms of this Section 6.6 shall control to the extent Section 6.6 provides for a broader scope and/or longer duration of such obligations.

(d) Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses as a result of the breach of the covenants in Section 6.6(c), because a breach of such covenants would diminish the value of the assets and business of Seller being sold pursuant to this Agreement, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that would be caused for which Purchaser or Axtive would have no other adequate remedy, Seller and Shareholder agree that the covenants in Section 6.6(c) may be enforced against them by injunctions, restraining orders, and other equitable actions. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Purchaser or Axtive from pursuing any other available remedy for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages.

Nothing in this Section 6.6 is intended to prevent Seller or Shareholder from conducting any business that is not a Competitive Business. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Section 6.6 and ARTICLE VIII, ARTICLE VIII shall control.

-43-

6.7 Responsibility for COBRA Continuation Health Coverage for Division Employees. If, immediately prior to the Closing, Seller maintains a health plan (or Shareholder maintains a health plan that is applicable to Seller’s employees) that is subject to continuation health coverage requirements (“Continuation Coverage”) under Section 4980B of the Code and Section 601 et seq. of ERISA (“COBRA”) or other applicable Law, Seller (or Shareholder) shall either maintain such health plan or otherwise provide Continuation Coverage under COBRA or such other applicable Law for the benefit of (a) all former employees of Seller and their eligible dependents who are receiving Continuation Coverage at the time of the Closing and (b) all Seller employees and their eligible dependents who elect Continuation Coverage as the result of termination of employment with Seller upon consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (such individuals referred to in (a) and (b) collectively referred to as “Covered Persons”). If Seller or Shareholder, as the case may be, is unable or fails to maintain its health plan or otherwise provide Continuation Coverage for any Covered Person and, as a result, Purchaser is required under COBRA or other applicable Law to provide Continuation Coverage for such Covered Person, Seller and Shareholder, jointly and severally, shall reimburse and fully indemnify Purchaser for all Losses incurred, directly or indirectly, by Purchaser as a result of Seller’s failure to provide Continuation Coverage.

6.8 Employees.

(a) Seller shall discharge all of its obligations and liabilities to any Seller employee under any and all pay and compensation practices, and under all of the Employee Plans and under any employment agreements or terms and conditions of employment, except for such employee-related liabilities or obligations expressly set forth in Schedule 2.3. Seller shall be responsible for and shall pay all severance costs, if any, in respect of Seller employees severed on or prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Purchaser shall offer employment to each of Seller’s employees on terms and conditions satisfactory to Purchaser in its sole discretion. Purchaser shall neither assume, nor be obligated with respect to, any employee benefit plan or any policy, procedure, or practice, including payroll practices, which are or have been maintained by Seller prior to the date of Closing with respect to Seller’s employees.

(c) Seller and Shareholder will use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause all present employees of Seller to execute Axtive’s forms of assignments of copyright and other intellectual property rights, noncompetition and trade secret agreements and confidentiality agreements.

(d) Purchaser shall not assume or continue any Employee Plan or have any responsibility or liability whatsoever with respect to any Employee Plan.

6.9 Consents. Seller shall obtain the Seller Required Consents on or prior to the Closing; provided, however, that the failure to obtain any Seller Required Consent prior to the Closing shall not constitute a waiver by Purchaser of Seller’s obligations as set forth in this Section. Seller acknowledges and agrees that the disclosure of the Seller Required Consents with respect to Major Customers in Schedule 4.5(b) or any waiver of the delivery of any such Seller Required Consent on or before the Closing does not relieve Seller of any liability or obligation to

-44-

Purchaser, including under this Section, with respect to the failure to obtain any such Seller Required Consents. With respect to any Seller Required Consent, other than with respect to a Major Customer, the delivery of which on or before the Closing is waived by Purchaser, Seller and Shareholder shall use their commercially reasonable efforts from and after the Closing to deliver such Seller Required Consents to Purchaser or Axtive, but Seller and Shareholder shall have no liability to Purchaser, including under this Section, if such Seller Required Consents are not obtained, provided that Seller and Shareholder have used commercially reasonable efforts. With respect to any real property lease with a Seller Required Consent, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Seller Required Consent in a form of Assignment and Assumption of Lease mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and Seller, but Seller and Shareholder shall have no liability to Purchaser, including under this Section, if such Seller Required Consents are not obtained, provided that Seller and Shareholder have used commercially reasonable efforts.

6.10 Name Change.

Promptly after the Closing, Axtive shall engage KBA to perform (a) an audit (the “Post-Closing Audit”) of the Year-End Financial Statements and (b) a review of the Interim Financial Statements (the “Post-Closing Review”). Seller and Shareholder agree to use their respective best efforts to cooperate fully with KBA in connection with the Post-Closing Audit and the Post-Closing Review, including causing Shareholder’s previous and current independent auditors to cooperate fully with KBA and provide KBA with access to their respective workpapers relating to Seller.

6.12 Web Site. Within 10 Business Days following the Closing Date, Shareholder shall remove from the DCRI Web Site all references to “Datatek” and Seller’s business.

6.13 Acquisition Proposals. From the date Axtive has obtained a firm financing commitment or commitments, reasonably satisfactory to Axtive and Shareholder, for Acquisition Financing of at least $6.0 million until the earlier to occur of (a) Closing or (b) the termination of this Agreement, none of Seller, Shareholder, or any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, or representative of any of them shall, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit or initiate the submission from, or provide any information to, or participate in any discussions with, any other person or entity concerning an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) permit access by any person or entity to the Company’s premises or provide any information to any other person or entity for purposes of reviewing the Company or the Company’s assets or business in connection with any Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) enter into any oral or written agreement with any other person or entity in connection with any Acquisition Proposal or engage anyone to enter into such an agreement. Seller and Shareholder shall promptly provide written notice to Purchaser of any inquiries or expressions of interest with respect to any Acquisition Proposal received from any other person or entity during such period. Seller and Shareholder shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any persons conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal.

6.15 Microsoft Master License Agreement. Shareholder shall enter into a Subcontract to give Purchaser the rights, as between Shareholder and Purchaser, to use the Microsoft software licenses under (i) the Microsoft Master License Agreement (which covers desktop operating systems), and (ii) from the Closing Date until the expiration of the Microsoft Master License Agreement, the Microsoft Select 5 Standard Enrollment Acceptance Letter that expired June 30, 2004 (which covers applications and server software), that are used by Seller and included in the Seller Used Intellectual Property as of the Closing (the “Datatek MS Software Licenses”). When the Microsoft Master License Agreement is scheduled for renewal by Shareholder, Shareholder shall not renew the Microsoft Master License Agreement with respect to the Datatek MS Software Licenses, and Purchaser shall be responsible for entering into one or more appropriate license agreements with Microsoft Corporation with respect to the Datatek MS Software Licenses at that time.

6.16 Release of Shareholder and Seller.

(a) With respect to the liability of Seller or Shareholder under the Datatek Consulting Purchase Agreement regarding managers’ bonuses or earn-outs, as expressly set forth in Schedule 2.3 and included as an Assumed Liability, Axtive and Purchaser shall use their respective best efforts to have Shareholder or Seller, as the case may be, released from such obligation on or before the Closing Date.

(b) Upon written request of Shareholder or Seller, Axtive and Purchaser shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to have Shareholder and Seller, as applicable, formally released from one or more obligations comprising the Assumed Liabilities.

(c) If after the expiration of 120 days after the Closing, any of the Assumed Liabilities other than trade account payables remain outstanding, Axtive and Purchase shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to have Shareholder or Seller, as the case may be, released from each obligation comprising such Assumed Liabilities.

(d) With respect to any release pursuant to this Section 6.16, neither Axtive nor Purchaser shall have any obligation to prepare the documentation evidencing any such release, pay any fee to a third party with respect to any such release, or pay the legal fees or expenses of a third party, Shareholder, or Seller with respect to any such release.

(c) Threshold Amount. Axtive Indemnified Persons shall have no claims under Section 7.1(a)(i) against Shareholder unless and until the Axtive Losses exceed $75,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), at which time all such claims may be asserted in full from the first dollar of any such Losses.

(a) General Indemnification.

-47-

(d) Action by Shareholder. If two or more Seller Indemnified Persons deliver, whether separately or together, a Claim to Axtive pursuant to this Section 7.2 arising from or relating to the same or a reasonably similar matter, then Shareholder shall act on behalf of each such Seller Indemnified Person for purposes of this Section 7.2.

7.3 Third Person Claims. Promptly after any party hereto (hereinafter the “Indemnified Party”) has received notice of or has knowledge of any claim by a person not a party to this Agreement (“Third Person”), of the commencement of any action or proceeding by a Third Person that the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give to the party obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to Sections 7.1 or 7.2 (hereinafter the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action or proceeding. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter so long as the Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and in any settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records, and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such Third Person claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete release from liability of, the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party desires to accept a final and complete settlement of any such Third Person claim and the Indemnified Party refuses to consent to such settlement, then the Indemnifying Party’s liability under this Section with respect to such Third Person claim shall be limited to the amount so offered in settlement by said Third Person; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to refuse to consent to any such proposed settlement and the Indemnifying Party’s liability hereunder shall not be limited by the amount of the proposed settlement if such settlement does not provide for the complete release of the Indemnified Party. If, upon receiving notice, the Indemnifying Party does not timely undertake to defend such matter to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder, or fails diligently to pursue such defense, the Indemnified Party may undertake such defense through counsel of its choice, at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party may settle such matter, in its discretion, and the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for the amount paid in such settlement and any other liabilities or expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith.

7.4 Non-Third Person Claims. In the event that any Indemnified Party asserts the existence of a claim giving rise to Losses (but excluding claims resulting from the assertion of liability by Third Persons), such party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party. Such

-48-

written notice shall state that it is being given pursuant to this Section 7.4, specify the nature and amount of the claim asserted, and indicate the date on which such assertion shall be deemed accepted and the amount of the claim deemed a valid claim (such date to be established in accordance with the next sentence). If such Indemnifying Party, within 60 days after the mailing of notice by such Indemnified Party, shall not give written notice to such Indemnified Party announcing such Indemnifying Party’s intent to contest such assertion of such Indemnified Party, such assertion shall be deemed accepted and the amount of such claim shall be deemed a valid claim. In the event, however, that such Indemnifying Party contests such assertion of a claim by giving such written notice to the Indemnified Party within said period, then the parties shall act in good faith to reach agreement regarding such claim. In the event that litigation shall arise with respect to any such claim, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement of costs and expenses incurred in connection with such litigation including reasonable attorneys’ fees, if the parties hereto, acting in good faith, cannot reach agreement with respect to such claim within 60 days after the notice provided by the Indemnified Party.

7.5 Notice of Claim. Any written notice of a claim required under Section 7.3 or Section 7.4 shall be in writing, shall be given in accordance with Section 13.6 and shall contain the following information to the extent reasonably available to party giving the notice:

(a) The good faith estimate of the party giving the notice of the reasonably foreseeable maximum amount of the alleged Losses (which amount may be the amount of damages claimed by a Third Person in a claim); and

(b) A brief description in reasonable detail of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to the alleged Losses based on good faith belief thereof of the party giving the notice and the basis under this Agreement for such claim, including the identity and address of any Third Person claimant (to the extent reasonably available to the party giving the notice) and copies of any formal demand, complaint or other document related to the claim.

7.6 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

(a) Representations and Warranties of Seller and Shareholder. All representations and warranties of Shareholder contained in ARTICLE IV shall survive the Closing for a period of 18 months and one day after the Closing Date (the “Seller Expiration Date”), regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the parties to this Agreement (except to the extent Axtive has actual knowledge of a breach of a representation and warranty at or before Closing), except that (i) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.10(a) (assets) shall survive the Closing for the Post-Closing Period, which shall be deemed to be the Seller Expiration Date therefor, and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.16 (environmental matters), Section 4.18 (employee benefit matters, but only with respect to Tax matters), and Section 4.19 (taxes) shall survive until such time as the applicable limitations period has run, which shall be deemed to be the Seller Expiration Date therefor. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 7.6(a), any act or omission constituting fraud shall survive until such time as the applicable limitations period has run.

-49-

(b) Axtive’s Representations. All representations and warranties of Axtive contained in ARTICLE V shall survive the Closing for a period of 18 months and one day after the Closing Date (the “Axtive Expiration Date”), regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the parties to this Agreement, except that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.4 shall survive the Closing for the Post-Closing Period, which shall be deemed to be the Axtive Expiration Date therefor. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 7.6(b), any act or omission constituting fraud shall survive until such time as the applicable limitations period has run.

7.7 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) Aggregate Limitation. The aggregate indemnification obligation of Seller and Shareholder under Section 7.1 and of Axtive under Section 7.2 shall each be limited to an amount equal to $1,000,000; provided, however, that to the extent of any Axtive Losses as a result of or arising out of Section 7.1(a)(iii), the aggregate indemnification obligation of Seller and Shareholder shall be $2,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in this Section 7.7(a) shall not apply to any Loss as a result of or arising from any act or omission constituting fraud.

(b) Primary Source of Recovery. The Escrow Shares shall be the first source of recovery for any Axtive Loss and the satisfaction of Seller and Shareholder’s indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 7.1.

(c) Secondary Source of Recovery. If there are any indemnification obligations of Seller and Shareholder pursuant to Section 7.1 that are not satisfied with the delivery of Escrow Shares to Axtive, Seller and Shareholder may satisfy any such indemnification obligation by the transfer to Axtive of the number of shares of Axtive Common Stock received as part of the Stock Consideration (free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances) with a value equal to the amount of the indemnification obligation. The value of the shares of Axtive Common Stock for purposes of this Section 7.7(c) shall be calculated based on the Axtive Share Value.

ARTICLE VIII

NONCOMPETITION COVENANTS

8.1 Prohibited Activities.

(a) In connection with and for no additional consideration, Seller, Shareholder, and their respective Affiliates will not for a period of two years following the Closing Date (the “Noncompete Term”), without the prior written consent of Axtive, directly or indirectly, for itself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, company, partnership, corporation, or business of whatever nature:

(i) engage, as an officer, director, shareholder, owner, partner, joint venturer, or in a managerial or advisory capacity, whether as an employee, independent contractor, consultant, advisor, representative, or agent, in any Competitive Business in the United States (the “Territory”);

-50-

(ii) hire any person who is, at that time, an employee or consultant of Purchaser, or recruit, hire, solicit, or attempt to recruit, hire, or solicit, directly or by assisting others, any such person for the purpose or with the intent or effect of enticing such employee or consultant away from or out of the employ or contract with Purchaser; or

(iii) call upon any person or entity which is, at that time, or which has been, within one year prior to that time, a customer of Seller, Purchaser or any Affiliates of such parties within the Territory for the purpose of soliciting or selling services or products in a Competitive Business within the Territory.

(b) Notwithstanding the above, Section 8.1(a) shall not be deemed to prohibit Shareholder from acquiring, as a passive investor with no involvement in the operations of the business, not more than 1% of the capital stock of a Competitive Business the stock of which is publicly traded on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Market, or over the counter.

8.2 Equitable Relief. Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to Axtive and Purchaser as a result of a breach of the covenants in this ARTICLE VIII, because a breach of such covenant would diminish the value of the assets and business of Seller being sold pursuant to this Agreement, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that could be caused to Axtive and Purchaser for which it would have no other adequate remedy, Seller and Shareholder agree that the covenants in this ARTICLE VIII may be enforced against them by injunctions, restraining orders, and other equitable actions.

8.3 Reasonable Restraint. It is agreed by the parties hereto that the covenants in this ARTICLE VIII are necessary in terms of time, activity, and territory to protect Axtive’s and Purchaser’s interest in the assets and business being acquired pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and impose a reasonable restraint on Seller and Shareholder in light of the activities and businesses of Seller on the date of the execution of this Agreement and the current plans of Seller.

8.4 Severability; Reformation. The covenants in this ARTICLE VIII are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the continuing validity and enforceability of any other covenant. In the event any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time, or territorial restrictions set forth in this ARTICLE VIII are unreasonable and therefore unenforceable, then it is the intention of the parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent that the court deems reasonable and this Agreement shall thereby be reformed.

8.5 Material and Independent Covenant. Seller and Shareholder each acknowledge that its agreements and the covenants in this ARTICLE VIII are material conditions to Axtive’s and Purchaser’s agreements to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and that Axtive and Purchaser would not have entered into this Agreement without such covenants. All of the covenants in this ARTICLE VIII shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement.

ARTICLE XII

FEDERAL SECURITIES ACT RESTRICTIONS ON AXTIVE COMMON STOCK;

RESALE REGISTRATION

12.1 Compliance with Law. Shareholder acknowledge the shares of Axtive Common Stock issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (the “Restricted Shares”) will not be registered under the Securities Act, except as set forth in and required by the Registration Rights Agreement with respect to future registration for resale, and therefore may not be resold without compliance with the Securities Act. The Restricted Shares are being or will be acquired by Shareholder solely for its own account, for investment purposes only, and with no present intention of distributing, selling, or otherwise disposing of them in connection with a distribution. Shareholder covenants, warrants, and represents that none of the Restricted Shares will be, directly or indirectly, offered, sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, transferred, or otherwise disposed of except after full compliance with all of the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certificates representing the Restricted Shares shall bear the following legend:

The shares represented by this certificate were not issued in a transaction registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), or any applicable state securities laws. The shares represented hereby have been acquired for investment and may not be sold or transferred unless such sale or transfer is covered by an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or, in the opinion of counsel to the issuer, is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such laws.

12.2 Economic Risk; Sophistication; Accredited Investors. Shareholder is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Restricted Shares and can afford to sustain a total loss of such investment. Shareholder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the proposed investment and therefore has the capacity to protect its own interests in connection with the acquisition of the Restricted Shares pursuant hereto. Shareholder represents to Axtive that it is an “accredited investor,” as that term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. Shareholder or its representatives have had an adequate opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the officers of Axtive concerning, among other matters, Axtive, its management, and its business.

-57-

12.3 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC that may permit the resale of Axtive Common Stock to the public without registration, for a period of two years after the Closing, Axtive agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information (as such terms are defined in Rule 144) regarding Axtive available;

(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of Axtive under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

(c) furnish Shareholder upon written request a written statement by Axtive as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of Axtive, and such other reports and documents so filed as Shareholder may reasonably request in availing himself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing Shareholder to sell any such shares without registration.

12.4 Resale Registration. At the Closing, Axtive shall enter into a Registration Rights Agreement, in a form mutually agreed upon by Axtive and Seller (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), with Seller or Shareholder, which shall include customary terms and conditions and provide as follows: (a) Axtive shall prepare and file with the SEC, within five Business Days after the Filing Date, a registration statement, on Form SB-2 or such other appropriate form as may then be available for use by Axtive, covering the resale of the Restricted Securities in an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 (or, alternatively, Axtive may include the resale of the Restricted Securities in a registration statement previously filed by Axtive with the SEC), (b) Axtive shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC within 60 days after the initial filing thereof, (c) if the registration statement is not filed on or prior to the date in clause (a) above or if the registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC by the 135th day following the initial filing thereof, Axtive shall pay to the holders of the Restricted Shares covered by the Registration Rights Agreement liquidated damages in an aggregate amount equal to $1,500 per day until such filing or effectiveness has occurred, and (d) the Registration Rights shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties thereto, including transferees of the Restricted Shares.

ARTICLE XIII

MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the rights of the parties hereunder may not be assigned (except by operation of Law) and shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, the successors of Axtive, Purchaser, Seller, and Shareholder.

For the purposes of such construction, this Agreement shall be considered as a whole.

13.9 Reformation and Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, it shall, to the extent possible, be modified in such manner as to be valid, legal and enforceable, but so as to most nearly retain the intent of the parties, and if such modification is not possible, such provision shall be severed from this Agreement, and in either case, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

13.10 Governing Law; Venue. The laws of the State of Texas (without regard to its choice of law principles that might apply the law of another jurisdiction) shall govern the validity of this Agreement, the construction of its terms, and the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the parties. If any action is brought with respect to injunctive relief as

-60-

provided in Section 6.6(d) and Section 8.2 or the enforcement of an arbitrator’s order pursuant to Section 13.11, venue for such action shall be in Dallas County, Texas. Each of the parties hereto expressly submits to jurisdiction in any state or federal court located in Dallas County, Texas, and waives any claim of improper jurisdiction or lack of venue in connection with any such matter. Each party hereby agrees that such courts, as applicable, shall have in personam jurisdiction with respect to such party, and such party hereby submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

13.11 Dispute Resolution. Except with respect to injunctive relief as provided in Section 6.6(d) and Section 8.2 (which relief may be sought from any court or administrative agency with jurisdiction with respect thereto), any unresolved dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement (“Dispute”) shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Dallas, Texas and, except as herein specifically stated, in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect (“AAA Rules”) then in effect. In all respects, however, these arbitration provisions shall govern over any conflicting rules that may now or hereafter be contained in the AAA Rules.

(a) Compensation of Arbitrator. Any such arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator who shall be compensated for his or her services at a rate to be determined by the parties or by the American Arbitration Association, but based upon a reasonable hourly or daily consulting rate for the arbitrator if the parties are not able to agree upon his or her rate of compensation.

(b) Selection of Arbitrator. The parties shall obtain from the American Arbitration Association a list of arbitrators available to conduct the arbitration who are lawyers familiar with Texas contract law and experienced in mergers and acquisitions; provided, however, that such lawyers cannot work for a firm then performing services for either party or otherwise have a conflict of interest. The parties shall use their reasonable efforts to agree upon an arbitrator on such list to conduct the arbitration. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator, each party shall choose one person from the list of arbitrators provided by the American Arbitration Association, and the two persons so selected shall select from the list provided by the American Arbitration Association the person who shall act as the arbitrator.

(c) Burden of Proof. For any Dispute submitted to arbitration, the burden of proof shall be as it would be if the Dispute were litigated in a Texas judicial proceeding.

(d) Payment of Costs. Axtive and Shareholder shall each pay 50% of the initial compensation to be paid to the arbitrator in any such arbitration and 50% of the costs of transcripts and other normal and regular expenses of the arbitration proceedings; provided, however, that the prevailing party in any arbitration shall be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and costs, and all costs of arbitration, including those provided for above, shall be paid by the non-prevailing party, and the arbitrator shall be authorized to make such determinations.

(e) Award. Upon the conclusion of any arbitration proceedings hereunder, the arbitrator shall render findings of fact and conclusions of law and a written opinion

-61-

setting forth the basis and reasons for any decision reached and shall deliver such documents to each party to this Agreement along with a signed copy of the award. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve a Dispute; provided, however, the arbitrator shall not have the authority to add to, detract from, or modify any provision hereof nor to award punitive damages to any injured party. Subject to Section 13.11(d), the arbitrator shall have the authority to order payment of damages, reimbursement of costs, including those incurred to enforce this Agreement, and payment of interest thereon to the prevailing party. A decision by the arbitrator shall be final and binding.

(f) Judgment on Award. Any judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the subject matter thereof.

(g) Exclusive Remedy. Except as specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement, arbitration shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties for any Dispute arising out of this Agreement.

13.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Facsimile transmission of any signed original document or retransmission of any signed facsimile transmission shall be deemed the same as delivery of an original. At the request of any party, the parties will confirm facsimile transmission by signing a duplicate original document.
