shall qualify as a reorganization under such Section. In addition, the Parties
covenant and agree that they will not engage in any action, or fail to take any
action, which action or failure to take action would reasonably be expected to

368(a) of the Code, whether or not otherwise permitted by the provisions of this
Agreement;
(b) ANNOUNCEMENT. Neither ROO Media, on the one hand, nor Virilitec on

unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by applicable law or
securities regulation. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.03 to the

before issuing, and provide each other the opportunity to review and comment
upon, any such press release or other public statements with respect to this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby whether or not required by
Applicable Law. Upon execution of this Agreement, Virilitec shall issue a press
release, which shall be approved by ROO Media.
(c) NOTIFICATION OF CERTAIN MATTERS. ROO Media shall give prompt
written notice to Virilitec, and Virilitec shall give prompt written notice to
ROO Media, of:
(i) The occurrence, or nonoccurrence, of any event the
occurrence, or nonoccurrence, of which would be reasonably likely to cause any
representation or warranty contained in this Agreement to be untrue or
inaccurate in any material respect at or prior to the Effective Time; and
(ii) Any material failure of ROO Media on the one hand, or
Virilitec or the Virilitec Principal Stockholder, on the other hand, to comply
with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be

complied with or satisfied by it hereunder.
(d) REASONABLE BEST EFFORTS. Before Closing, upon the terms and

ROO Media to inspect and examine the business and affairs of Virilitec.

of its rights to rely on Virilitec's or the Virilitec Principal Stockholder's
covenants, representations and warranties made herein or pursuant hereto.
(ii) INSPECTION BY VIRILITEC. ROO Media will, if requested, make

requested by Virilitec to inspect and examine the business and affairs of ROO
Media. ROO Media will cause its managerial employees and regular independent

of its rights to rely on ROO Media's covenants, representations and warranties
made herein or pursuant hereto.

and delivery of this Agreement, the Virilitec Principal Stockholders do hereby

Merger by and among Virilitec Industries, Inc., a corporation formed under the
laws of the State of Delaware ("VIRILITEC"), Roo Media Corporation, a
corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware ("ROO MEDIA"), VRLT

December 1, 2003 (the "MERGER AGREEMENT"), pursuant to which Merger Sub shall be
merged with and into ROO Media. The security interests herein granted ("SECURITY
INTERESTS") shall secure full performance of: (a) that certain side letter (the
"SIDE LETTER") of even date herewith between ROO Media and the Secured Party
whereby ROO Media agrees to pay Virilitec's outstanding debt to the Secured
Party in the principal amount of Sixty Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars
($62,5000) (the "Debt") within ninety (90) days after the Closing (as defined in
the Merger Agreement); (b) the due and punctual observance and performance of
each and every agreement, covenant and condition on Debtor's part to be observed
or performed under this Agreement and by ROO Media under the Side Letter; and
(c) reimbursement of all expenses incurred by the Secured Party in enforcing his
rights under this Agreement and the Side Letter (all of which debts, duties,
liabilities and obligations hereinbefore described and covered by this Agreement
and the Side Letter are hereinafter referred to as the "OBLIGATION").
3. PRIORITY. Debtor represents and warrants that the Security Interests
are first and prior security interests in and to all of the Collateral.
4. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS. Debtor hereby represents
and warrants to Secured Party and covenants for the benefit of Secured Party as
follows:
(a) Debtor is the sole legal and equitable owner of the Shares
free from any adverse claim, lien, security interest, encumbrance or
other right, title or interest of any person, except for the security
interest created hereby. Debtor has the right and power to grant a
security interest in the Collateral to Secured Party without the
consent of any other person, and Debtor shall at its expense defend the
Collateral against all claims and demands of all persons at any time
claiming the Collateral or any interest therein adverse to Secured
Party. So long as any Obligation to the Secured Party pursuant to the
Side Letter is outstanding, Debtor will not without the prior written
consent of Secured Party grant to any person a security interest in any
of the Collateral or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach to any of
the Collateral, or suffer or permit any levy or garnishment or
attachment to be made on any part of the Collateral, or permit any
financing statement to reflect an interest in any part of the
Collateral, except that of Secured Party, to be on file with respect
thereto.
(b) Debtor has delivered to an escrow agent designated by the
Secured Party (the "Escrow Agent"), pursuant to an Escrow Agreement
executed by the Debtor, the Secured Party and the Escrow Agent, all
stock certificates evidencing the Shares pledged and assigned under
this Agreement, together with duly executed stock powers in blank and
all other assignments or endorsements reasonably requested by Secured
Party, including, without limitation, signatures guaranteed by a
participant in the Medallion program.
(c) If new or additional Securities are issued to Debtor (as a
stock dividend, stock split, or pursuant to any reclassification or
recapitalization of the capital of any issuer of Securities pledged and
assigned hereunder, or the reorganization, merger, acquisition or
consolidation of any such issuer or otherwise) with respect to the
Collateral or if additional shares are required to be pledged pursuant
to the third paragraph of the Side Letter, then the same shall be
deemed an increment to the Collateral and under pledge and assignment
to Secured Party hereunder. If evidenced by a stock certificate, bond,
warrant, debenture, certificate, or other Instrument or writing, then
such Securities shall (to the extent acquired or received by or placed
under Debtor's control) be held in trust for and promptly delivered to
Escrow Agent, together with duly executed stock powers in blank and any
other assignments or endorsements as Secured Party may request. If any
such Securities are uncertificated, then Debtor shall immediately upon
acquisition of such Securities cause the Escrow Agent to be registered
as the transferee thereof on the books of the depository, custodian
bank, clearing corporation, brokerage house, issuer or otherwise, as
may be requested by Secured Party.
5. DEBTOR'S OBLIGATIONS. So long as the Side Letter is outstanding,
Debtor covenants and agrees with Secured Party: (a) not to permit any material
part of the Collateral to be levied upon under any legal process; (b) not to
dispose of any of the Collateral without the prior written consent of Secured
Party; (c) to comply with all applicable federal, state and local statutes,
laws, rules and regulations, the noncompliance with which would have a material
and adverse effect on the value of the Collateral; and (d) to pay all taxes
accruing after the Closing Date which constitute, or may constitute, a lien
against its respective Collateral, prior to the date when penalties or interest
would attach to such taxes; provided, that the Debtor may contest any such tax
claim if done diligently and in good faith.
6. EVENT OF DEFAULT. As used herein, the term "Event of Default" shall
include any or all of the following if same exist on the seventh calendar day
after written notice by Secured Party to Debtor which certifies such default:

legal or beneficial interest, mortgage, pledge or grant of a security
interest in any of the Collateral; or
(b) The filing or issuance of a notice of any lien, warrant
for distraint or notice of levy for taxes or assessment against any
Collateral (except for those which are being contested in good faith
and for which adequate reserves have been created); or
2
(c) Nonpayment of any installment of principal or interest
upon the date same shall be due and payable under the terms of the Side
Letter, whether said date be the Maturity Date or a date fixed by the
acceleration provisions of the Side Letter, and the failure to cure
such nonpayment pursuant to the terms, if any, of the Side Letter; or
(d) The adjudication of Debtor as bankrupt, or the taking of
any voluntary action by Debtor or any involuntary action against Debtor
seeking an adjudication of Debtor as bankrupt, or seeking relief by or
against Debtor under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code; or
(e) Any breach of the terms of the Side Letter not otherwise
recited in this Section 6.
7. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default as defined herein, Secured Party may, at its Option: (a) sell,
or otherwise dispose of, at the office of Secured Party, or elsewhere, all or
any part of the Collateral, and any such sale or other disposition may be as a
unit or in parcels, by public or private proceedings, and by way of one or more
contracts; or (b) at its discretion, retain the Collateral in satisfaction of
the Obligation whenever the circumstances are such that Secured Party is
entitled to do so under the Code or otherwise. Provided that an Event of Default
has not occurred, Debtor shall retain all voting rights with respect to the
Shares and all cash dividends declared with respect to such Shares. To the
extent permissible under applicable law, Debtor hereby grants an irrevocable
proxy coupled with an interest to the Secured Party to vote the Shares at any
meeting of the shareholders of Virilitec or to deliver consent in lieu of a
shareholder meeting, provided that the proxy shall be effective only after an
Event of Default has occurred.
8. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS BY SECURED PARTY. Any and all proceeds ever
received by Secured Party from any sale or other disposition of the Collateral,
or any part thereof, shall be applied by Secured Party to the Obligation as
follows: first, to the repayment of interest accrued on the Debt, second, to the
repayment of the Debt, and third, to satisfaction of all other Obligations. Any
proceeds received by Secured Party under this Agreement in excess of those
necessary to fully and completely satisfy the Obligations shall be distributed
to Debtor.
