6. Upon execution of the Cryptometrics Security Agreement, the security agreements (the “Security Agreements”) created by JAG Media and JAG Media LLC effective May 25, 2006 for the benefit of Cornell Capital shall be terminated and thereafter null and void and JAG Media and JAG Media LLC may file any necessary UCC filings to reflect such termination.

8. If the average closing price of the Post-Merger Company’s Common Stock during any thirty (30) day period following the Effective Date is less than $0.50 per share the Post-Merger Company, acting through Messrs. Robert Barra and Michael Vitale as executives and members of the Board of Directors of the Post-Merger Company, shall cause the Convertible Shares Reservation to be increased from 20 million shares of Common Stock to a number of shares equal to four (4) times the number of shares that would be required to be issued assuming a full conversion of the Debentures (not taking into account any caps or conversion limitations) at the closing price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the date such increased reserve is created (“Increased Conversion Shares Reservation”). If the authorized shares of Common Stock of the Post-Merger Company must be increased in order to permit such increase of the Conversion Shares Reservation, Messrs. Barra and Vitale, as executives, members of the board of directors and majority stockholders of the Post-Merger Company shall take all actions necessary in each of their capacities to promptly increase the Post-Merger Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to a number sufficient to permit the implementation of the Increased Conversion Shares Reservation immediately after such additional shares are authorized.

11.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this agreement, the above restrictions on Cornell Capital’s ability to convert the Debentures or exercise the Warrants prior to the Effective Date or the termination of this Agreement, which ever occurs first, shall become effective immediately upon the execution of this agreement by the all parties.
