ARTICLE II

CLOSING CONSIDERATION

2.1 Calculation of Closing Consideration. The aggregate consideration to be issued upon the Closing of the Merger (the “Closing Consideration”) to the holders of all (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of New Core Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “New Core Holders”) shall be comprised of the Initial Shares (defined below) and Additional RDSI Shares (defined below). The Closing Consideration shall be the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock which would equal the sum of:

(a) the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock equal to the product of the total number of shares of RDSI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by one thousand eight hundred thirty-four ten thousandths (0.1834) (the “Initial Shares”), plus

(b) an additional number of shares of RDSI Common Stock (“Additional RDSI Shares”) if the Computed Valuation of New Core (as defined in Section 2.2(a) below) as of the Valuation Date is greater than fifteen and one-half percent (15.5%) of the sum of such Computed Valuation of New Core and the RDSI Computed Valuation (as defined in Section 2.2(b) below) as of the Valuation Date (the “Aggregate Post-Merger Value”). The aggregate number of Additional RDSI Shares shall equal the number derived from the following equations A and B:

A.	RDSI Computed Valuation	=	Per Share
	Number of RDSI Shares Outstanding		Computed
	Immediately Prior to Effective Time		Value

	B.	Computed Valuation of New Core	– Initial Shares	= Additional
		Per Share Computed Value		RDSI Shares

(ii) “Converted Contract” shall mean a New Core Contract under which the financial institution has converted to, or installed, the New Core Software, and is fully operational, evidenced by a certificate executed by the financial institution to the effect that the New Core Software has been successfully integrated into such financial institution’s products and services and is operating, subject to one or more issues identified by the financial institution on such certificate which, in the aggregate, does not affect the overall functionality of the system.

(iii) “Initial Monthly Subscription Fee” shall mean the amount set forth (usually in Schedule B to New Core Contracts) in the Converted Contract as the amount payable by the financial institution per month for the initial twelve (12) months of service by New Core or RDSI. Any adjustments, discounts, premiums, and other negotiated variances to the Initial Monthly Subscription Fee will be calculated over the full term of the contract, and the adjustment shall be applied to the Initial Monthly Subscription Fee. [For example, a three month initial discount would be applied against the entire initial term of a three year contract and the New Core Computed Revenue adjusted by one-third of the total adjustment.] The Initial Monthly Subscription Fee shall include the amount payable by the financial institution per month for disaster recovery services, whether included in the fee(s) set forth in Schedule B to the Converted Contract, identified and billed separately in the Converted Contract, or billed in an amendment or addendum to the Converted Contract. The Initial Monthly Subscription Fee shall not include any one-time installation fees, hardware sales and/or installation, special one-time fees, and pass-through xxxxxxxx such as communications expense. The Initial Monthly Subscription Fee shall not be reduced by sales commissions or one-time third party fees that are paid directly by the financial institution or paid by off-setting one-time xxxxxxxx to the financial institution.

(iv) “New Core Computed Revenue” shall be the sum of the following calculations (A + B + C) of assumed revenues by category of service for the period for which such calculation is made for each bank having a Converted Contract based upon such financial institution’s assets as of the December 31 immediately prior to the Converted Contract Date (“Bank Assets”):

For ASP Processing, which is defined as a processing configuration where the New Core Software is processed (run) on hardware owned or leased by New Core or RDSI at a site remote from the bank but the software is operated and controlled by the bank with hardware maintenance the responsibility of New Core or RDSI, the following calculation for all Converted Contracts with a Converted Contract Date during such period: (I) aggregate Bank Assets times (II) the Initial Monthly Subscription Fee times (III) Twelve One Millionths (.000012) (“ASP Processing Revenues”); Plus

For Out-Sourced Processing, which is defined as a processing configuration where the New Core software is processed (run) on hardware owned or leased by New Core or RDSI and operations and hardware maintenance is the responsibility of New Core or RDSI, the following calculation for all Converted Contracts with a Converted Contract Date during such period: (I) aggregate Bank Assets times (II) the Initial Monthly Subscription Fee times (III) Twelve One Millionths (.000012) (“Out-Sourced Processing Revenues”).

(vii) “RDSI Computed Valuation” shall mean the average of the four (4) following calculations all computed in accordance with GAAP:

Twelve (12) times the net income (after-tax) of RDSI (“Net Income”) for the twelve (12) months ending on the Valuation Date;

Six (6) times the EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) of RDSI for the twelve (12) months ending on the Valuation Date;

One and one-half (1.5) times the gross revenues of RDSI for the twelve (12) months ending on the Valuation Date; and

An amount equal to: (x) the Net Cash Flow (defined below) of RDSI for the twelve (12) months ending on the Valuation Date divided by twelve one hundredths (.12); plus (y) the total shareholders’ equity of RDSI on the Valuation Date; minus (z) the goodwill of RDSI on the Valuation Date. “Net Cash Flow” shall be computed using the amounts determined for the twelve months ending on the Valuation Date (except for capital expenditures) and shall be equal to: (a) Net Income; plus (b) interest used for the EBITDA computation in (ii) above times sixty-six one hundredths (.66); plus (c) depreciation expense on fixed assets; plus (d) amortization expense on any software or intangible assets; minus (e) the average annual capital expenditures of RDSI for the twenty four (24) months ending on the Valuation Date.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, RDSI shall withhold from the Initial Shares and the Additional Shares to be delivered to the New Core Holders pursuant to this Article II and shall deliver to the Holdback Agent a number of shares of RDSI Stock equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Closing Consideration (the “Holdback Shares”), which Holdback Shares shall be retained by the Holdback Agent, in the Holdback Fund in accordance with Section 9.3 hereof, and the Closing Consideration to which each New Core Holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.3(a) shall be reduced accordingly.

2.4 No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article II, no fractional share of RDSI Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued as part of the Closing Consideration. Each New Core Holder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of RDSI Common Stock as part of the Closing Consideration shall receive instead an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) the fractional RDSI Common Stock interest to which such holder would otherwise be entitled, multiplied by (b) the Per Share Computed Value.

2.5 Share Certificates in Merger.

(a) Within three business days after the Effective Time, RDSI shall mail to each New Core Holder of record a form letter of transmittal and instructions for use in effecting the surrender for exchange of the Certificates evidencing the shares of New Core Common Stock cancelled and extinguished as a result of the Merger. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate evidencing the shares of RDSI Common Stock and the cash to which the holder is entitled in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and the Certificate so surrendered shall thereafter be cancelled forthwith.

(b) In the event that any New Core Holder of shares of New Core Common Stock cancelled and extinguished in accordance with this Agreement is unable to deliver the Certificate which evidences such shares of the holder, RDSI, in the absence of actual notice that any shares theretofore evidenced by any such Certificate have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, shall deliver to such holder the amount to which such holder is entitled in accordance with any provisions of this Agreement upon the presentation of all of the following:

(i)

Evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of RDSI that any such Certificate has been lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed;

(ii)

Such security or indemnity as may be reasonably requested by RDSI to indemnify and hold RDSI harmless; and

(iii)

Evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of RDSI that such person is the owner of the shares theretofore represented by each Certificate claimed by him to be lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed and that he is the person who would be entitled to present each such Certificate for exchange pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) In the event that the issuance of shares of RDSI Common Stock or payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with this Agreement is to be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate surrendered is registered, the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such issuance or payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance or payment to a person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered or establish to the satisfaction of RDSI that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.5, each Certificate shall represent for all purposes the right to receive the Closing Consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares as determined pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) No dividends or other distributions declared with respect to shares of RDSI Common Stock and payable to the New Core Holders of record thereof after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until the holder thereof shall surrender such Certificate. Subject to the effect, if any, of applicable law, after the subsequent surrender and exchange of a Certificate, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of RDSI Common Stock represented by such Certificate.

2.6 Compliance with Section 2.5. No shares of RDSI Common Stock or payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be delivered by RDSI to any New Core Holder of common shares in accordance with this Agreement until any such holder shall have complied with Section 2.5 of this Agreement.

2.7 Payment in Satisfaction of Rights. All payments made upon the surrender of Certificates pursuant to this Article II shall be deemed to have been made in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares evidenced by such Certificates.

2.8 No Further Registration of Transfer. After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfer of shares of New Core Common Stock on the stock transfer books of New Core. In the event that, after the Effective Time, Certificates evidencing such shares are presented for transfer, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

2.9 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the shares of New Core Common Stock which are outstanding immediately before the Effective Time and which are held by shareholders who shall not have voted such shares in favor of this Agreement, who shall have delivered to New Core a written notice of intent to demand payment of such shares in the manner provided in Sections 607.1301 through 607.1333 (collectively, the “Appraisal Statute”) and who shall have otherwise complied fully with all of the requirements of the Appraisal Statute shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive the consideration provided in this Agreement; provided, however, that (a) each of such shares (herein referred to as the “Dissenting Shares”) shall nevertheless be cancelled and extinguished in accordance with this Agreement; (b) the holder of Dissenting Shares, upon full compliance with the requirements of the Appraisal Statute, shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of the Appraisal Statute; and (c) in the event (i) any holder of Dissenting Shares shall subsequently withdraw such holder’s demand for appraisal of such shares in accordance with the provisions of the Appraisal Statute, or (ii) any holder of Dissenting Shares fails to perfect his or her appraisal rights by not fully complying with the provisions of the Appraisal Statute, such holder shall forfeit the right to appraisal of such shares and such shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable for the right to receive the consideration provided in this Agreement.

(b) New Core shall give RDSI (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any shares of New Core Common Stock made under the Appraisal Statute, any withdrawals or attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments delivered pursuant to the Appraisal Statute and received by New Core relating to Dissenting Shares and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to the exercise of appraisal rights. New Core shall not, except with the prior written consent of RDSI, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for payment for shares of New Core Common Stock under the Appraisal Statute or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

ARTICLE III

EARN-OUT CONSIDERATION

3.1 Earn-Out Consideration.

(a) In addition to the Closing Consideration, each New Core Holder shall have the right to receive Initial Earn-Out Consideration, Adjusted Earn-Out Consideration and Final Earn-Out Consideration all as defined and determined in accordance with this Article III and collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Earn-Out Consideration.”

(b) If the Computed Valuation of New Core as of the Valuation Date is less than .1834 times the RDSI Computed Valuation on the Valuation Date, then the Earn-Out Consideration shall be reduced. The reduction shall equal the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock (“Reduction Shares”) derived from the following equation:

(RDSI Computed Valuation times .1834) minus Computed Valuation of New Core

Per Share Computed Value

= Reduction Shares

The number of Reduction Shares shall first reduce the Initial Earn-Out Consideration and then shall, in turn, reduce the Adjusted Earn-Out Consideration and the Final Earn-Out Consideration until all of the Reduction Shares have been applied.

(c) In no event, however, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shall the aggregate number of shares of RDSI Common Stock issued as Additional RDSI Shares, Initial Earn-Out Consideration, Adjusted Earn-Out Consideration and Final Earn-Out Consideration exceed the aggregate number of Shares of RDSI Common Stock issued as Initial Shares.

3.2 Initial Earn-Out Consideration.

The “Initial Earn-Out Period” shall be the period beginning on the Effective Time and ending on December 31, 2010, if the Effective Time precedes December 31, 2010. If the Effective Time is on or after December 31, 2010, no Initial Earn-Out Consideration shall be issued.

The aggregate Initial Earn-Out Consideration to be issued to all New Core Holders shall equal the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock derived from the following calculation:

(a) New Core Computed Revenue for the Initial Earn-Out Period times One and One half (1.5), Plus

(b) New Core Computed Net Income for the Initial Earn-Out Period times Twelve (12); Divided By

(d) The Per Share Computed Value;

provided, however, that the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock derived from the foregoing calculation shall be reduced by the number of Converted Contract Revision Shares. Each New Core Holder shall be entitled to receive the same proportion of such Initial Earn-Out Consideration as the New Core Holder received of the Initial Shares. The Initial Earn-Out Consideration shall be issued by RDSI not later than March 31, 2011.

3.3 Adjusted Earn-Out Consideration.

The “Adjusted Earn-Out Period” shall be the period beginning on the later of the Effective Time or January 1, 2011 and ending on December 31, 2011.

The aggregate Adjusted Earn-Out Consideration to be issued to all New Core Holders shall equal the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock derived from the following calculation:

(a) New Core Computed Revenue for the Adjusted Earn-Out Period times One and One half (1.5), Plus

(b) New Core Computed Net Income for the Adjusted Earn-Out Period times Twelve (12); Divided By

(d) The Per Share Computed Value;

provided, however, that the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock derived from the foregoing calculation shall be reduced by the number of Converted Contract Revision Shares. Each New Core Holder shall be entitled to receive the same proportion of such Adjusted Earn-Out Consideration as the New Core Holder received of the Initial Shares. The Adjusted Earn-Out Consideration shall be issued by RDSI not later than March 31, 2012.

3.4 Final Earn-Out Consideration.

The Final Earn-Out Consideration shall be payable to the New Core Holders in connection with New Core Contracts executed between New Core or RDSI and a financial institution before December 31, 2011 and that become Converted Contracts between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012 (“Final Converted Contracts”).

The aggregate Final Earn-Out Consideration to be issued to all New Core Holders shall equal the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock derived from the following calculation:

(a) New Core Computed Revenue for Final Converted Contracts during the period January 1, 2012 until December 31, 2012 times One and One half (1.5), Plus

(b) New Core Computed Net Income for Final Converted Contracts during the period January 1, 2012 until December 31, 2012 times Twelve (12); Divided By

(d) The Per Share Computed Value;

provided, however, that the number of shares of RDSI Common Stock derived from the foregoing calculation shall be reduced by the number of Converted Contract Revision Shares. Each New Core Holder shall be entitled to receive the same proportion of such Final Earn-Out Consideration as the New Core Holder received of the Initial Shares. The Final Earn-Out Consideration shall be issued by RDSI not later than March 31, 2013.

3.5 No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article III, no fractional share of RDSI Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued as part of the Earn-Out Consideration. Each New Core Holder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of RDSI Common Stock as part of the Earn-Out Consideration shall receive instead an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) the fractional RDSI Common Stock interest to which such holder would otherwise be entitled, multiplied by (b) the average closing price of a share of RDSI Common Stock for the twenty (20) most recent trading days that RDSI Common Stock has traded immediately preceding the issuance of the applicable Earn-Out Consideration.

3.6 Shares Reserved. Following the Effective Time, the Combined Company shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of RDSI Common Stock for delivery of the Earn-Out Consideration pursuant to the terms set forth in this Article III.

If RDSI (on behalf of an RDSI Indemnified Person) asserts a claim upon the Holdback Fund by delivering to the Holdback Agent and the Shareholders’ Representative on or before the expiration of the Survival Period an Officer’s Certificate stating that, with respect to the indemnification obligations of New Core set forth in Section 9.2, Damages exist or are expected to exist and specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of such Damages included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid, or properly accrued or arose, or is reasonably expected to be paid, accrue or arise, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or claim to which such item is related, the Holdback Agent shall retain in the Holdback Fund, subject to the provisions of Sections 9.3(h) and (i), shares of RDSI Common Stock held in the Holdback Fund having a value equal to such Damages. For the purpose of compensating an RDSI Indemnified Person for its Damages pursuant to this Agreement, the shares of Common Stock in the Holdback Fund shall be valued at the average of (a) the average closing price of a share of RDSI Common Stock over the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the date of the release of the shares in payment of a claim hereunder (the “Average Closing Price”).

(h) Objection to Claims. Unless the Shareholders’ Representative shall notify the Holdback Agent and RDSI in writing within fifteen (15) days of delivery of an Officer’s Certificate that the Shareholders’ Representative objects to any claim or claims for Damages set forth therein, which notice shall include a reasonable explanation of the basis for such objection, upon the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period the Holdback Agent shall deliver to RDSI for cancellation a number of shares of Common Stock held in the Holdback Fund with a value equal to the Damages claimed in such Officer’s Certificate. If the Shareholders’ Representative shall timely notify the Holdback Agent and RDSI in writing that it objects to any claim or claims for Damages made in an Officer’s Certificate, RDSI shall have fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Shareholders’ Representative. If after such fifteen (15) day period there remains a dispute as to any claims set forth in such Officer’s Certificate, the Shareholders’ Representative and RDSI shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Shareholders’ Representative and RDSI should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties. The Holdback Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and distribute shares of RDSI Common Stock from the Holdback Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.

(i) Resolution of Conflicts and Arbitration. If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation between the parties pursuant to Sections 9.3(g) or (h), either RDSI or the Shareholders’ Representative may, by written notice to the other, demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Damages is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration; and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by one arbitrator. RDSI and the Shareholders’ Representative shall agree on the arbitrator, provided that if RDSI and the Shareholders’ Representative cannot agree on such arbitrator, either RDSI or Shareholders’ Representative can request that Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services select the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a court of competent law or equity, should the arbitrator determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of the arbitrator shall be written, shall be in accordance with applicable law and with this Agreement, and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusion of law which shall set forth the basis for the decision of the arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be binding and conclusive on all parties, and notwithstanding anything in to the contrary in this Section 9.3, the Holdback Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and distribute shares of RDSI Common Stock from the Holdback Fund in accordance with the terms thereof. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be held in Toledo, Ohio under the commercial rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association.

9.4 Escrow Agreement. Within thirty (30) days following the date of this Agreement, RDSI, New Core and each of the shareholders and warrantholders of New Core shall enter into an escrow agreement (the “Holdback Escrow Agreement”) with a third-party escrow agent mutually agreed upon by RDSI and New Core (the “Holdback Agent”), which Holdback Escrow Agreement shall provide for the Holdback Agent to serve as Holdback Agent as set forth herein and shall contain terms and conditions consistent with the provisions of Section 9.3. Pursuant to the Holdback Escrow Agreement, the New Core shareholders and warrantholders shall also irrevocably appoint Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx as the Shareholders’ Representative to receive notices and communications, to vote all Holdback Shares and Additional Holdback Shares, and to authorize delivery to RDSI of shares of RDSI Common Stock from the Holdback Fund in satisfaction of claims by New Core, to object to such deliveries, to demand arbitration on behalf of such New Core Shareholders pursuant to Section 9.3(i), to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims to take the actions required by Section 7.14, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholders’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing.
