WHEREAS, FyreStorm, Inc. (a/k/a Fyre Storm, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Debtor”), with its principal place of business located at 255 San Geronimo Way, Sunnyvale, CA, 95085, is indebted to the Lenders pursuant to the terms of a Venture Loan and Security Agreement between the Lenders and the Debtor dated as of August 18, 2006 (as amended, modified, or supplemented from time to time to the date hereof, including those associated or incorporated documents such as security agreements or notes attached collectively as Exhibit A hereto, the “Loan Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Lenders hold security interests in substantially all of the Debtor’s property and assets (as defined in the Loan Agreement, the “Collateral”), which security interests have been duly and properly perfected by the filing of UCC financing statements with the office of the Delaware Secretary of State;

WHEREAS, an Event of Default has occurred under the Loan Agreement and the Lenders have accelerated the maturity of the indebtedness of the Debtor to the Lenders under the Loan Agreement (the “Indebtedness”), and based on the foregoing the Lenders are entitled to exercise their remedies under the Loan Agreement and applicable law, including the Uniform Commercial Code as presently enacted in the State of California (including, to the extent applicable to the transactions contemplated herein, the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in any other state, the “Code”; terms used herein and defined in Section 9101 of the Code shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms therein);

WHEREAS, the Lenders have determined to conduct a public disposition of all or part of the Collateral by and through a public sale, with the proceeds of such sale to be applied as required by this Agreement and the Code, and the Buyer wishes to bid at such sale to purchase such assets from the Lenders, all pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Code and any other applicable law;


NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the following covenants, the sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Lenders and the Buyer hereby agree as follows:

1.4. Closing; Purchase Price. Subject in each case to the Buyer being the highest qualified bidder at the Public Sale, and to the satisfaction or waiver of all other conditions to the closing or effectiveness of this Agreement set forth herein or imposed by the Code, then:

The time and date on which the Closing is actually held are sometimes referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

(b) The “Purchase Price” to be paid for the Purchased Assets shall be the amount of the highest qualified bid placed by the Buyer at the Public Sale. The Purchase Price shall be paid to the Lenders by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wire instructions set forth on Schedule 1.4, provided that, at the request of Buyer or Lenders, a portion of the Purchase Price in an amount set forth in a pay off letter from Silicon Valley Bank may be sent by wire transfer directly to Silicon Valley Bank in satisfaction of the Superior Interest (as defined below).

1.6. Buyer’s Deliveries at Closing. On the Closing Date, the Buyer shall deliver to the Lenders the Purchase Price (as adjusted for the Deposit), and the Buyer or its designee shall execute and deliver the Bill of Sale.

1.7. Further Assurances.

The Lenders shall request that the Debtor execute the acknowledgements and consents attached to the Assignment of Patents and the Assignment of Trademarks. Each of the Lenders and the Buyer acknowledge and agree that neither the Debtor’s consent hereto nor the execution of such documents is required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.2. Expenses. Each party to this Agreement shall be responsible for its expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.3. Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, including all exhibits and schedules attached hereto, constitutes and contains the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes any and all prior negotiations, correspondence, understandings and agreements between the parties respecting the subject matter hereof.

10


6.4. No Liability of Officers and Directors. The parties hereto acknowledge that the individuals executing this Agreement on behalf of the Lenders and the Buyer do so on behalf of such entities and not in their individual capacities. As such, no officer, director, employee or agent of the Lenders or the Buyer shall have any liability hereunder.

6.5. Alternative Dispute Resolution.

6.5.1. The Buyer and the Lenders agree to use reasonable efforts to resolve between themselves any dispute they have with respect to the matters covered hereby or any agreement or document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, including any amendments hereof and thereof.

6.5.2. Except for disputes with respect to issues of validity or infringement of any intellectual property rights which must be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction, to the extent that any misunderstanding or dispute cannot be resolved agreeably in a friendly manner, the dispute will be mediated by a mutually-acceptable mediator to be chosen by the Buyer and the Lenders within forty-five (45) days after written notice by one of the parties is delivered to the other demanding mediation. Neither party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of a mediator; however, either party may request a postponement of the mediation until each has completed specified but limited discovery with respect to a dispute. The parties may also agree to attempt to resolve their dispute by some other form of alternate dispute resolution (“ADR”) in lieu of mediation, including by way of example and without limitation neutral fact-finding or a mini-trial.

6.5.3. Any such dispute which the parties cannot resolve through negotiation, mediation or other form of ADR within three (3) months of the date of the initial demand for it by one of the parties may then be submitted to the courts for resolution. The use of any ADR procedures will not be construed under the doctrines of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either party. Nothing in this Section 6.5.3 will prevent either party from resorting to judicial proceedings if (A) good faith efforts to resolve the dispute under these procedures have been unsuccessful or (B) interim relief from a court is necessary to prevent serious and irreparable injury to one party or to others.

6.5.4. Each of the Buyer and the Lenders shall bear its own costs of mediation or ADR, but the Buyer and the Lenders agree to share the costs of the mediator or ADR provider equally. The Lenders’ costs of mediation or ADR and its share of the costs of the mediator or ADR provider shall be paid by the Debtor and shall constitute Indebtedness.

6.6. Sales and Transfer Taxes. As between the parties hereto, the Lenders shall pay any and all sales, use, transfer or similar taxes arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for which Buyer may be liable or which could result in a lien on the

 

11


Purchased Assets. The Buyer shall be responsible for any transfer or other filing fees, and other costs, if any, payable in connection with recording the sale or transfer of the Purchased Assets and title thereto.

6.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered in two or more counterparts, in original or by email or facsimile, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
