ARTICLE I
THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger. At the Effective Time, in accordance with this Agreement and the GBCC, Merger Sub will merge with and into Company, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease, and Company will continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”). From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will possess all the rights, privileges, immunities and franchises, of a public as well as a private nature, and will be subject to all liabilities, obligations and penalties of, Company and Merger Sub, all with the effect set forth in the GBCC.

Section 1.2 Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, Company or any other Person being required, the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated to read the same as the articles of incorporation of Merger Sub in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (except that Article 1 thereof shall read “The name of the Corporation is Goldleaf Enterprise Payments, Inc.”), and as so amended and restated, shall be the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable law. The bylaws of Merger Sub in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time will be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, until duly amended in accordance with applicable law.

Section 1.3 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time will be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation and will hold office from the Effective Time until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified in the manner provided in the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation or as otherwise provided by applicable law. The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time will be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation (each such Person holding the same office with respect to the Surviving Corporation as such Person held with the Merger Sub) and will hold office from the Effective Time until their respective successors are duly appointed and qualified in the manner provided in the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation or as otherwise provided by applicable law.

Section 1.5 Conversion of Securities.

(a) At the Effective Time, each share of common stock, no par value per share, of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation without any action on the part of the holder thereof.

(b) At the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of common stock, no par value per share, of Company (“Company Common Stock”), that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and extinguished and converted, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, into the right to receive the Merger Consideration per share (as may be adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, the “Per Share Common Stock Merger Consideration”), payable to such holder pursuant to Annex B and the terms of the Escrow Agreement, as applicable. All such shares of Company Common Stock, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Share Common Stock Merger Consideration to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with Section 1.7 of this Agreement.

All such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Share Series B Preferred Stock Merger Consideration to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with Section 1.7 of this Agreement.

(e) Each share of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock (collectively, “Company Stock”) held in Company’s treasury (“Company Treasury Stock”) at the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger, be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist without payment of any consideration therefor. All such shares of Company Treasury Stock, when so extinguished, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist.

Section 1.6 Treatment of Stock Options. Pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Alogent Corporation 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”), Company (i) shall cause the vesting of all outstanding options to purchase Company Common Stock which have been issued under the 2007 Plan (the “2007 Plan Outstanding Options”) to become accelerated (in whole or in part) in accordance with the terms thereof as of a date which shall be specified by Company to be effective immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Specified Date”) contingent upon the Merger, (ii) shall notify all holders of such 2007 Plan Outstanding Options that, effective as of such Specified Date and contingent upon the Merger, such holders must either exercise their vested 2007 Plan Outstanding Options as of such date, or their 2007 Plan Outstanding Options shall be unilaterally cancelled by Company, and that all unvested 2007 Plan Outstanding Options shall also be unilaterally cancelled by Company and (iii) shall take all necessary and appropriate actions to effectuate the foregoing. Such notice shall specifically inform holders of 2007 Plan Outstanding Options of their ability to exercise their 2007 Plan Outstanding Options through a “cashless” or “net share” exercise as provided by the terms and provisions of the 2007 Plan and their respective option agreements. Each outstanding option to purchase Company Common Stock which was issued under the Alogent Corporation 2001 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2001 Plan”) (each such option being a “2001 Plan Outstanding Option”) shall be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time pursuant to a written agreement between Company and the optionee holding such 2001 Plan Outstanding Option, pursuant to which such optionee shall agree to the cancellation immediately prior to the Effective Time of such option with no further rights with respect thereto in exchange for a single lump sum cash payment at Closing, subject to any applicable withholding taxes.

Section 1.7 Delivery of Stock Certificates; Payment of Merger Consideration. Parent shall pay the Merger Consideration to the Company Shareholders as follows:

(a) At the Closing, Parent shall pay directly to the Company Shareholders listed on Annex B in the table that appears directly under the heading “Accredited Investors” cash, Convertible Notes and Parent Shares (valued as provided in Section 1.4(a)) in amounts equal to the Closing Payment Amount to be delivered to such Company Shareholders as set forth on Annex B, provided that each such Company Shareholder, on or before Closing, as a condition to receiving such consideration at Closing: (i) consents to the Merger under an appropriate document evidencing such consent delivered to Parent at Closing; (ii) signs and delivers an Investor Letter in substantially the form of Exhibit B addressed to Parent; and (iii) signs and delivers a letter of transmittal addressed to Parent, which letter of transmittal shall be accompanied by a certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Stock (the “Certificates” and each, a “Certificate”) evidencing such holder’s ownership of the number of shares of Company Stock set forth opposite such Company Shareholder’s name on Annex B, and duly executed stock powers for such Certificates. The Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. After receipt of such materials, Parent shall, at Closing, in accordance with Annex B attached hereto, and subject to Section 1.9: (i) pay by wire transfer or ACH to each such Company Shareholder the cash Merger Consideration to which such Company Shareholder is entitled; (ii) deliver to each such holder the Convertible Note to which such holder is entitled; and (iii) instruct its transfer agent in writing (a copy of which is delivered to Company at Closing), which such instruction shall be irrevocable and shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to deliver to each such Company Shareholder a stock certificate for the number of Parent Shares to which such holder is entitled, as soon as practicable after Closing.

(b) At the Closing, Parent shall pay directly to the Company Shareholders listed on Annex B in the table that appears directly under the heading “Other Shareholders” cash in

amounts equal to the Closing Payment Amount to be delivered to such Company Shareholders as set forth on Annex B, provided that each such Company Shareholder, on or before Closing, as a condition to receiving such consideration at Closing: (i) consents to the Merger under an appropriate document evidencing such consent delivered to Parent at Closing, and (ii) signs and delivers a letter of transmittal addressed to Parent, which letter of transmittal shall be accompanied by a Certificate or Certificates evidencing such Company Shareholder’s ownership of the number of shares of Company Stock set forth opposite such Company Shareholder’s name on Annex B, and duly executed stock powers for such Certificates. The Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. After receipt of such materials, Parent shall, at Closing, in accordance with Annex B attached hereto, and subject to Section 1.9, pay by wire transfer or ACH to each such Company Shareholder the cash Merger Consideration to which such Company Shareholder is entitled.

(c) At the Closing, Parent shall deposit into the Company’s operating account for the benefit of the Company Shareholders listed on Annex B in the table that appears under the heading “Optionee Shareholders,” cash in the aggregate amount equal to the Closing Payment Amount to be delivered to all such Company Shareholders in the aggregate as set forth on Annex B. Such deposited amounts shall be held free and clear of all Liens and shall be delivered to Company’s payroll processor for immediate issuance of checks made payable to the order of each such Company Shareholder (each such check to be in the amount set forth opposite such Company Shareholder’s name on Annex B, less any required withholding taxes). Upon satisfaction of the requisite conditions specified in Section 1.7(f) for such Company Shareholder, Parent shall cause the check issued as described above to be delivered to such Company Shareholder.

(d) At Closing, Parent shall deposit with the Escrow Agent, for the benefit of the Company Shareholders and the settlement of any Parent indemnification claims, cash and Convertible Notes in an aggregate amount equal to the Escrow Amount as provided in Section 1.4.

(e) Following Closing, Parent shall deliver as described in this Section 1.7(e) to the Company Shareholders listed on Annex B in the table that appears under the heading “Remaining Shareholders,” cash in amounts equal to the Closing Payment Amount to be delivered to such Company Shareholders as set forth on Annex B (which cash shall be equal to the portion of the aggregate Closing Payment Amount that remains after the payments and deliveries required by the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.7). At Closing, Parent shall deposit into a segregated account at a commercial banking institution reasonably satisfactory to the Company, which account shall be for the benefit of such Company Shareholders, and which account shall at all times be maintained free and clear of all Liens, the balance of the Merger Consideration that is not distributed at Closing pursuant to the above provisions of this Section 1.7. Parent shall bear the cost and expense of maintaining such account and any and all interest earned at any time on the cash deposited into such account shall inure to the benefit of, and belong to, Parent.

(f) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event within five (5) Business Days following the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Certificates for which a letter of transmittal was not delivered to Parent at the Closing, which shares were converted into the right to receive such holder’s portion of the Merger Consideration as set forth on Annex B: (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall be in a form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify); and (ii) instructions as specified by Parent and Company for use in effecting the exchange of the Certificates for the Merger Consideration. At Closing, Company shall on behalf of such holder surrender Certificates for all outstanding Company Stock for cancellation to Parent. Upon delivery

of such letter of transmittal, duly completed and executed, and all other documents required by the instructions thereto, to Parent, the holder of each such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Parent shall promptly distribute to such holder, the amount of cash to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Annex B attached hereto, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.7, each Certificate shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender such amount of the Merger Consideration an in such manner as set forth on Annex B, without interest.

(g) Parent shall not be required to issue and no Company Shareholder shall be entitled to receive any Parent Shares or Convertible Notes if such holder does not return a completed Investor Letter in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto to Company and Parent on or before Closing.

(h) All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.7 shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Stock theretofore represented by such Certificates. At the close of business on the day of the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of Company, payment may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer, and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Section 1.7.

(i) None of Parent, Merger Sub, or Company shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered prior to seven (7) years after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity), the Merger Consideration shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(j) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Parent, the posting by such Person of indemnification or of a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Parent will pay to the holder of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, such holder’s Merger Consideration as set forth on Annex B.

(k) If Parent is required to make a payment to a holder of a Certificate pursuant to this Section 1.7, Parent shall promptly distribute (or shall instruct the Exchange Agent to distribute)

all such amounts to such holder in accordance with this Section 1.7 and with Annex B, without setoff or holdback of any kind (except withholding for taxes pursuant to subsection (l) below).

(l) Parent shall deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Company Shareholder such amounts as it is required by applicable law to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Code”) or any provisions of any other Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by Parent, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Company Shareholder in respect to which such deduction and withholding were made by Parent.

Section 1.8 Dissenters’ Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Company Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time held by a holder who shall not have voted to adopt this Agreement (or otherwise consented to it) and has the right to demand and has properly demanded payment for such shares in accordance with Sections 14-2-1321 and 14-2-1323 of the GBCC (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration set forth in Section 1.5, but shall be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be due such holder pursuant to Section 14-2-1325 of the GBCC unless such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s right to such payment. If, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses any such right to payment, each such share of such holder shall no longer be considered a Dissenting Share and shall be deemed to have converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 1.5. Company shall give prompt notice to Parent of any demands received by Company for payment of shares of Company Stock, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the received by Company, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands.

Section 1.9 Escrow Agreement

(a) At the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit the $1,000,000 cash portion of the Escrow Amount into an interest bearing account, along with the $2,800,000 portion of the Escrow Amount composed of Convertible Notes (the “Escrow Account”), as specified in the Escrow Agreement (as defined below), at the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Amount pursuant to an escrow agreement to be entered into by Parent, the Shareholder Representative and the Escrow Agent on or before the Closing, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Escrow Agreement”).

(b) The Escrow Amount shall be made available to Parent, on the terms set forth in the Escrow Agreement, to indemnify Parent and Surviving Corporation against, and to protect, save and keep harmless Parent from, and to assume liability for, the payment of all losses, liabilities, damages, costs, assessments, fines, interest, penalties, deficiencies and other obligations and expenses (including reasonable out of pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) (“Damages”) as provided in Section 9.1. Parent shall direct the Escrow Agent to make distributions out of the Escrow Amount to Parent (each, a “Parent Escrow Distribution”) in amounts equal to the amount of any indemnifiable Damages that are finally determined to be payable to Parent pursuant to Article IX hereof and in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. Parent Escrow Distributions shall be made from the cash in the Escrow Account and then from the remaining Escrow Funds (as defined in the

Escrow Agreement) in the Escrow Account, in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Escrow Agreement. Parent may raise claims for indemnification under this Section 1.9 and Article IX only during the 15-month period following the Closing Date. On the day that is the first Business Day following the date that is the 15-month anniversary of the Closing Date, Parent and the the Shareholder Representative shall jointly direct the Escrow Agent to make a distribution for the benefit of the Company Shareholders (other than the Non-Escrow Shareholders), in the manner set forth in the Escrow Agreement in an aggregate amount equal to the difference between the Escrow Amount, less all distributions made from the Escrow Amount prior to such date, less the total amount of all unresolved claims made by Parent as set forth on the Claims Schedule (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) delivered by Parent on or prior to the date that is the 15-month anniversary of the Closing Date.

(c) On the later of (i) the first Business Day following the date which is the 15-month anniversary of the Closing Date, and (ii) the date on which all claims for Damages by Parent pursuant to Section 1.9 have been resolved in accordance with the Escrow Agreement (such date, the “Final Distribution Date”), the Shareholder Representative and Parent shall jointly direct the Escrow Agent to make a distribution to the Company Shareholders, in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement, in an aggregate amount equal to (1) the Escrow Amount plus all interest earned on such amount less (2) all distributions made from the Escrow Amount on or prior to the Final Distribution Date; provided, however, if the foregoing results in a negative number, then such escrow distribution shall be zero.

(d) Any distributions from the Escrow Account to the Company Shareholders shall be distributed among the Company Shareholders as provided in the Escrow Agreement.

(e) The Parties agree that the Escrow Amount has been established to satisfy the indemnification claims by Parent following the Closing. Parent acknowledges and agrees that other than with respect to Damages caused by fraud committed by Company or any officer, director or Company Shareholder acting on behalf of Company in connection with this Agreement or the Merger, upon the consummation of the Merger, Parent’s sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of any representation or warranty of Company contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or document executed in connection herewith shall be to seek indemnification out of the Escrow Amount, and Parent shall have no recourse against any Company Shareholder or any other Person personally in connection therewith. The Company Shareholders are intended third party beneficiaries of this provision. Payments made under this Section 1.9 shall be treated by each of the Parties as purchase price adjustments, and the Parties agree to file all Tax returns consistent with such treatment.

Section 1.10 Adjustments to Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration set forth in Section 1.4 above has been calculated pursuant to subsection (a) below and shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in subsections (b) and (c) below:

(a) At the Closing, Company shall deliver to Parent a balance sheet (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) setting forth good faith estimates with respect to Company’s assets and liabilities as of the Closing Date. The Closing Date Balance Sheet will be prepared in accordance with the balance sheet included in the Interim Financial Statements, and shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital. If the Closing Date Net Working Capital is less than $1,900,000, the Closing Payment Amount has been reduced by the amount of such deficiency and, if the Closing Date Net Working Capital is more than $1,900,000, the Closing

Payment Amount has been increased by the amount of such overage. For purposes of this Agreement, “Closing Date Net Working Capital” means Company’s current assets less current liabilities (including deferred revenue balances) determined in accordance with the methodology used in the balance sheet included in the Interim Financial Statements.

(b) Within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date, Parent will review the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital and, if Parent disputes the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Parent shall notify Company in writing (the “Dispute Notice”) of the amount, nature and basis of such dispute. Company shall have thirty (30) days from the receipt of the Dispute Notice to dispute Parent’s adjustment to the Closing Date Net Working Capital. If Company fails to dispute such adjustment within such time period, then the adjustment shall be final and conclusive. In the event of a dispute, Parent and Company shall first use their diligent good faith efforts to resolve such dispute between themselves. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, then any remaining items in dispute shall be submitted to an independent nationally recognized accounting firm selected in writing by Parent and Company or, if Parent and Company fail or refuse to select a firm within ten (10) days after written request therefor by Parent or Company, such an independent nationally recognized accounting firm shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “Chosen Firm”). All determinations pursuant to this section shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the parties. The Chosen Firm shall only resolve specific issues in dispute between the parties as set forth in the Dispute Notice in determining the Closing Date Net Working Capital. The determination of the Chosen Firm as to the resolution of any dispute shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties. A judgment on the determination made by the Chosen Firm pursuant to this section may be entered in and enforced by any court having jurisdiction over the matter. The fees and expenses of the Chosen Firm in connection with the resolution of disputes pursuant to this section shall be shared equally by Parent on one hand and Company on the other hand; provided, however, that if the Chosen Firm determines that one party has adopted a position or positions with respect to the calculation of Closing Date Net Working Capital that is frivolous or clearly without merit, the Chosen Firm may, in its discretion, assign a greater portion of any such fees and expenses to such party. The final amount of the Closing Date Net Working Capital as determined pursuant to this section shall be the “Final Net Working Capital.”

(c) If the Final Net Working Capital is less than the Closing Date Net Working Capital, then Parent shall recover such shortfall from the Escrow Account. If the Final Net Working Capital is more than the Closing Date Net Working Capital, then Parent shall pay the difference to the Company Shareholders, on a pro rata basis as provided in Section 1.9, within five days of such determination.

If the Surviving Corporation merges into, consolidates with or transfers all or substantially all of its assets to another Person, then and in each such case, the Surviving Corporation shall make proper provision so that the surviving or resulting corporation or the transferee in such transaction assumes the obligations of the Surviving Corporation under this Section 6.3. The obligations set forth in this Section 6.3 will continue for a period of six (6) years following the Closing Date and will continue in effect thereafter with respect to any Proceeding commenced prior to the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date. Parent hereby agrees, effective as of the Closing, to guarantee the Surviving Corporation’s indemnification obligations in favor of the Company Indemnified Principals pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.3. The Company Indemnified Principals are third party beneficiaries of, and are entitled to enforce, the provisions of this Section 6.3.

(b) Each of Parent and the Company Indemnified Principals shall cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate, in the defense of any action and shall provide access to properties and individuals as reasonably requested and furnish or cause to be furnished records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

(c) For the six-year period commencing immediately after the Effective Time, Parent shall, at Company’s election and at the expense of Company paid either prior to Closing or by a deduction from the Closing Payment Amount, obtain a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy for the exclusive benefit of those Persons who are currently covered by Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy from a financially sound and nationally reputable carrier which (A) is at least as favorable to the Persons currently covered by Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect as of the date hereof; and (B) will at a minimum have the same terms and limits as Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies in effect as of the date hereof; Company and Parent shall cooperate to make any arrangements necessary to obtain such directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for such six-year period, including the prepayment of any fees or premiums (at the expense of Company paid either prior to Closing or by a deduction from the Closing Payment Amount) to the applicable insurance providers of such amounts as necessary to provide the coverage contemplated by this Section 6.3.

Section 6.4 Employee Benefits.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent will honor (and hereby assumes, effective at Closing), and will cause the Surviving Corporation and all of its subsidiaries to honor, in accordance with its terms (including any right to amend or terminate) each existing employment, severance and termination plan, policy or agreement of or between Company and any officer or director of Company listed on Schedule 6.4(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.4(a) will require (i) the continuation of any Company Plan of any variety or prevent the amendment or termination thereof, or (ii) Parent or the Surviving Corporation to continue or maintain the employment of any Company employee. All such Company employees shall be employees at will. Notwithstanding the resignation of any Person who is a party to any agreement listed on Schedule 6.4(a) in connection with this Agreement, such agreement shall be treated as remaining in effect on a continuous basis upon such Person’s acceptance of the offer letter from Parent (but, if applicable, such agreement shall be deemed to be amended to reflect that (x) Parent is the Person’s employer and (y) the Person has the title or position specified in the offer letter), and such resignation shall not be considered to be or cause a terminating event or other waiver of rights (including rights

to severance payments and other benefits as provided therein if such employee is terminated following the change of control caused by the Merger) under any such agreement.

(b) With respect to any benefit plans of Parent or its Affiliates in which Company employees participate after the Closing, Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) waive any limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such Company employees under any welfare benefit plan in which such employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing (provided, that no such waiver will apply to a pre-existing condition of any Company employee who was, as of the Closing, excluded from participation in a Company Plan by nature of such pre-existing condition), (ii) recognize all service of the Company employees with Company for all purposes (including without limitation purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting credit, entitlement for benefits, and benefit accrual) in any benefit plan in which such Company employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing, except to the extent such treatment would result in duplicative accrual of benefits for the same period of service. Additionally, with respect to any benefit plans of Parent or its Affiliates in which Company employees participate after the Closing and which are qualified under Code Section 401(a), Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, amend such plans to the extent necessary so that such plans shall accept contributions of rollovers from other plans which are qualified under Code Section 401(a), and Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, allow direct rollovers to be made from the Alogent Corporation 401(k) Plan to such plans.

(c) All matching and other contributions required to be made by the Company to the Alogent Corporation 401(k) Plan with respect to the period of time ending on the Closing Date, whether or not such contributions are required to be made on or prior to or after the Closing Date under the terms of such plan or under the requirements of applicable law, shall be made by the Company on or prior to the Closing.

(d) Following Closing, Company employees shall be entitled to participate in the option and other incentive plans of Parent.

(b) by Company, in the event Parent or Merger Sub breaches any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement, and such breach (i) individually or in combination with any other breach, would cause any condition set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.3 not to be satisfied, and (ii) is not cured (if such breach is capable of being cured) within ten (10) days following delivery of written notice of such breach from Company to Parent;

(d) by Parent or Company, if any of the conditions to such party’s obligation to close the transactions contemplated hereby as set forth in Article VII has not been satisfied by the Closing Date or if satisfaction of any such condition becomes impossible (other than through the failure of the terminating party to comply with its obligations under this Agreement) and such party has not waived such condition on or before such date;

ARTICLE IX
INDEMNIFICATION

Section 9.1 Indemnification by Company Shareholders. Following the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article IX, the Company Shareholders shall indemnify and hold harmless Parent and Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates, stockholders, officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Parent Indemnified Persons”), and shall reimburse the Parent Indemnified Persons for, any Damages, arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Company in this Agreement or any certificate or document delivered by Company pursuant to this Agreement; or

(b) any breach of any covenant or obligation of Company in this Agreement or in any certificate or document delivered by Company pursuant to this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, on and after the Closing, and except for Damages arising out of fraud, the Parent Indemnified Persons will be indemnified and held harmless exclusively from, and only to the extent of, the Escrow Amount (the “Cap”) pursuant to the terms of this Article IX and the Escrow Agreement.

Section 9.2 Indemnification and Reimbursement by Parent and Merger Sub. Following the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article IX, Parent and Merger Sub shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Company and its respective Affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Persons”) and shall reimburse the Company Indemnified Persons for, any Damages arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement or any certificate or document delivered by Parent or Merger pursuant to this Agreement; or

(b) any breach of any covenant or obligation of Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement or in any certificate or document delivered by Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 9.3 Limitations on Indemnification by Company Shareholders. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the obligation of the Company Shareholders to indemnify the Parent Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 9.1 is subject to the following limitations, qualifications and terms:

(a) the Company Shareholders will have no indemnification liability under Section 9.1 until the total amount of Damages incurred by the Parent Indemnified Persons hereunder exceeds $100,000 (the “Deductible”), and then only for the amount by which such Damages exceed the Deductible.

(b) The Company Shareholders will have no indemnification liability under Section 9.1 to the extent that all Damages incurred by the Parent Indemnified Persons hereunder exceed the Cap.

(c) On and after the Closing, except for Damages arising from fraud, the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parent Indemnified Persons for any Damages incurred or imposed in connection with the matters referenced in Section 9.1 will be to make a claim in respect of, and to the extent of, the Escrow Amount, in accordance with the terms of this Article IX and the Escrow Agreement, and at such time that the Escrow Amount is reduced to zero, the Parent Indemnified Persons will have no further right to indemnification under this Article IX.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, claims for Damages incurred by the Parent Indemnified Persons arising from fraud committed by Company or the Company Shareholders prior to or at Closing shall be first paid out of the Escrow Amount but shall not be limited to the Cap or subject to the Deductible. Further, each Company Shareholder’s liability for Damages incurred by the Parent Indemnified Persons as a result of fraud committed by Company or the Company Shareholders prior to or at Closing (if any) shall be limited to such Company Shareholder’s allocable portion of such Damages based upon such Company Shareholders’ ownership of Company Stock as set forth on Annex B, which amount shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration actually received by such Company Shareholder.

(e) Neither Company nor Company Shareholders shall have indemnification liability for claims arising from any breach of Section 3.16 to the extent that such claims would not have arisen but for (x) changes made to the Company Business, including the Products, after the Effective Time, or (y) conduct of the Company Business, including the Products, other than as conducted prior to the Effective Time.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, for all purposes hereunder, the Company and the Company Shareholders shall have no liability “arising from fraud” and shall not be deemed to have committed fraud in connection with any claims of patent or other infringement of intellectual property rights, including contributory infringement or inducement to infringe, made by parties generally known in the industry in which Company operates as having made claims against others in the industry in which Company operates (but from which Company has not received any such notice or claim in breach of Section 3.16).

(g) The amount of Damages incurred by the Parent Indemnified Persons hereunder will be determined net of any amounts recovered by the Parent Indemnified Persons under applicable insurance policies with respect to such Damages.

(h) In the event that any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, agreement or covenant by Company is known to or discovered by Parent or Merger Sub at or prior to Closing (including, but not limited to matters disclosed in the Schedules of Company), and Parent and Merger Sub nevertheless elect to close, the Parent Indemnified Persons will be deemed to have waived such misrepresentation or breach and will have no claim or right whatsoever against the Company Shareholders by reason of such misrepresentation or breach.

Section 9.4 Limitations on Indemnification by Parent and Merger Sub. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the obligation of Parent and Merger Sub to indemnify the Company Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 9.2 is subject to the following

limitations and qualifications, provided that such limitations and qualifications shall not apply to any failure to pay any Merger Consideration in the required form and condition (e.g., lien free, fully paid and non-assessable, etc.), any failure to pay the Convertible Notes when due or any failure to comply with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement or this Agreement following the Closing:

(a) Parent and Merger Sub will have no indemnification liability under Section 9.2 until the total amount of Damages incurred by the Company Indemnified Persons hereunder exceeds the Deductible, and then only for the amount by which such Damages exceed the Deductible.

(b) Parent and Merger Sub will have no indemnification liability under Section 9.2 to the extent that all Damages incurred by the Company Indemnified Persons hereunder exceed the Cap.

(c) The amount of Damages incurred by the Company Indemnified Persons hereunder will be determined net of any amounts recovered by the Company Indemnified Persons under applicable insurance policies with respect to such Damages.

(d) In the event that any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, agreement or covenant by Parent or Merger Sub is known to or discovered by Company at or prior to Closing, and Company nevertheless elects to close, the Company Indemnified Persons will be deemed to have waived such misrepresentation or breach and will have no claim or right whatsoever against Parent or Merger Sub by reason of such misrepresentation or breach.

Section 9.5 Time Limitations.

(a) If the Closing occurs, the Company Shareholders will have no indemnification liability under this Article IX with respect to (i) any representation or warranty of Company, or (ii) any covenant or obligation to be performed and complied with by Company on or prior to the Closing Date, unless on or before the date that is 15 months after the Closing Date, Parent notifies the Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement of a claim specifying the amount thereof and the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Parent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(b) If the Closing occurs, Parent or Merger Sub will have no indemnification liability under this Article IX with respect to (i) any representation or warranty of Parent or Merger Sub, or (ii) any covenant or obligation to be performed and complied with by Parent or Merger Sub on or prior to the Closing Date, unless on or before the date that is 15 months after the Closing Date, the Shareholder Representative notifies Parent of a claim specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by the Shareholder Representative. Any indemnification or reimbursement paid by Parent or Merger Sub shall first be used to pay the expenses of the Shareholder Representative and then be distributed to the Company Shareholders pro rata.

Section 9.6 Procedure for Indemnification — Third Party Claims.

(a) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified Person under Section 9.1 or 9.2 (an “Indemnified Person”) of notice of the assertion of any third-party claim (which term as used throughout this Section 9.6 shall include, without limitation, any cross-claim or counterclaim) against such Indemnified Person in respect of which the Indemnified Person desires to seek indemnification

from an indemnifying person (an “Indemnifying Person”) pursuant to the terms of this Article IX, (i) in the case of any third-party claim brought against any Parent Indemnified Person, Parent shall give written notice of the assertion of such third-party claim to the Shareholder Representative, if such notice is delivered on or after the Closing, and (ii) in the case of any third-party claim brought against any Company Indemnified Person, the Shareholder Representative (in the event such notice is delivered on or after the Closing) shall give written notice to Parent of the assertion of such third-party claim (any such indemnification notice, an “Indemnification Notice”; and the recipient of such notice pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above being the “Indemnifying Person Representative”) of the assertion of such third-party claim; provided, however, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person Representative will not relieve any Indemnifying Person of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the defense of such third-party claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Person’s failure to give an Indemnification Notice.

(b) The Indemnifying Person Representative will be entitled to participate in the defense of such third-party claim and, to the extent that the Indemnifying Person Representative wishes, by providing written notice thereof (“Defense Notice”) to the Indemnified Person within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of the Indemnification Notice by the Indemnifying Person Representative, to assume the defense of such third-party claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Person Representative will not have the right to assume the defense of such third-party claim in the event (x) (i) the third-party claim relates to or arises in connection with any alleged criminal liability of the Indemnified Person or (ii) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the third-party claim is made and the Indemnified Person reasonably determines that joint representation would be inappropriate, and (y) the Indemnified Person notifies the Indemnifying Person Representative in the Indemnification Notice that the facts described in clause (i) or (ii) above are applicable and that the Indemnified Person is electing to assume the defense of such third-party claim.

(c) After the Indemnifying Person Representative delivers a Defense Notice to the Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 9.6(b) above, the Indemnifying Person will not, so long as the Indemnifying Person Representative diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Article IX for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses of the Indemnified Persons with respect to the defense of such third-party claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such third-party claim. If the Indemnifying Person Representative assumes the defense of a third-party claim, no compromise or settlement of such third-party claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Person Representative without the Indemnified Person’s written consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless (x) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law or the rights of any other Person by any Indemnified Person, and (y) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Person, and the Indemnified Person will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such third-party claims effected without its consent.

(d) If (i) an Indemnification Notice is delivered to the Indemnifying Person Representative and the Indemnifying Person Representative does not, within ten (10) Business Days after the Indemnification Notice is received, give a Defense Notice to the Indemnified Person, or (ii) the Indemnified Person elects to assume the defense of such third-party claim in the Indemnification Notice in accordance with Section 9.6(b) above, no compromise or settlement of such third-party claim may be effected by the Indemnified Person without the Indemnifying Person Representative’s written consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless (x) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law or the rights of any other Person by

any Indemnifying Person, and (y) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnified Person, and the Indemnifying Persons will have no liability (and the Escrow Account shall not be available or used to satisfy or pay any such settlement) with respect to any compromise or settlement of such third-party claims effected without its consent.

(e) With respect to any third-party claim subject to indemnification under this Article IX: (i) both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person Representative, as the case may be, shall keep the other Person fully informed in all material respects of the status of such third-party claim and any related Proceedings at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel, and (ii) the parties agree (each at its own expense) to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any third-party claim.

(f) With respect to any third-party claim subject to indemnification under this Article IX, the parties shall cooperate in such a manner as to preserve in full (to the extent possible) the confidentiality of all confidential information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges. In connection therewith, each party agrees that: (i) it will use commercially reasonable efforts, in respect of any third-party claim in which it has assumed or has participated in the defense, to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with applicable law and rules of procedure), and (ii) all communications between any parties hereto and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any third-party claim will, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

(g) Notwithstanding anything set forth above in this Section 9.6 or in any other provision hereof to the contrary, in the event of a third-party claim giving rise to a claim for Damages made by any Parent Indemnified Person based upon or as a result of a claimed breach of the Company’s representations or warranties set forth in Section 3.16, the Shareholder Representative shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such third-party claim, and no such third-party claim shall be compromised or settled without the written consent of both the Shareholder Representative and Parent.

Section 9.7 Procedure For Indemnification — Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.

Section 9.8 Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Any payment made by Company to a Parent Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article IX will be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes. Any payment made by Parent or Merger Sub to a Company Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article IX will be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes.

Section 9.9 Exclusive Remedy. Except for any failure to pay the Merger Consideration or Convertible Notes when due or a breach of any covenant or obligation to be performed following the Closing Date, the right to indemnification in this Article IX will be the exclusive remedy of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction will not limit claims for injunctive relief or claims based upon fraud.

Section 9.10 Limitations on Damages. NO PARTY SHALL HAVE ANY INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE

TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONTINGENT, SPECULATIVE, NON-QUANTIFIABLE, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST OPPORTUNITY COSTS; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 9.10 SHALL NEGATE, MODIFY OR ALTER THE OBLIGATION OF AN INDEMNIFYING PERSON FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONTINGENT, SPECULATIVE, NON-QUALIFIABLE, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST OPPORTUNITY COSTS, RECOVERED FROM THE INDEMNIFIED PERSON BY A THIRD PARTY PURSUANT TO A THIRD PARTY CLAIM AGAINST SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY FOR WHICH SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON IS OTHERWISE ENTITLED TO INDEMNITY UNDER THIS ARTICLE IX.

Section 9.11 Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations in this Agreement, the Schedules hereto, any Schedule Supplement, and any other certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement will survive the Closing.

ARTICLE X
GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 10.1 Expenses.

In that regard, Company covenants that all fees and expenses of its agents, attorneys, representatives and brokers shall be paid at the Closing by deduction from the Closing Payment Amount so that Company shall have no liability for any such fees and expenses post-Closing. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, Company is required to pay any such fees and expenses post-Closing, such amount shall be deducted from the Escrow Amount without regard to the Deductible, which shall not apply to such payment.

Section 10.2 Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries. No party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties.

(d) Parent and Surviving Corporation shall have the right to rely upon all actions taken or not taken by the Shareholder Representative pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, all of which actions or omissions shall be legally binding upon the holders of the Company Stock.

(e) If at any time the Shareholder Representative resigns, dies or becomes incapable of acting, the holders of a majority of the Company Stock as of the Closing shall choose another holder to act as the Shareholder Representative under this Agreement.
