4.    Offering and Sale of the Shares and Warrants.
 
(a)    On the basis of the representations, warranties, and covenants herein contained, but subject to the terms and upon the conditions herein set forth, the Placement Agents are hereby appointed the placement agents of Infosmart and Cyber Merchants on an exclusive basis during the term herein specified (the “Offering Period”) for the purpose of finding subscribers for the Shares and Warrants on a best-efforts basis for the account of Cyber Merchants (conditioned upon closing of the Exchange Agreement) at $7.00 per Share (“Offering Price”) through a private offering (the “Offering”) to an unlimited number of “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D) (“Accredited Investors”) pursuant to and in accordance with the Securities Act. The minimum subscription amount will be $25,000 unless Infosmart agrees to accept a lesser amount. Subject to the performance by Infosmart and Cyber Merchants of all its obligations to be performed hereunder, and to the completeness and accuracy of all the representations and warranties contained herein, the Placement Agents hereby accept such agency and agree on the terms and conditions herein set forth to use their best efforts during the Offering Period to find subscribers for the Shares and Warrants at the Offering Price. The Placement Agents’ agencies hereunder, which are terminable as provided in Section 11 hereof, shall terminate at 11:59 p.m., New York time, on September 30, 2006; provided that such
 
-23-

 

termination date (the “Termination Date”) may be extended by mutual written agreement of the parties until November 30, 2006.
 
(b)    Each Investor desiring to purchase Shares and Warrants will be required to: (i) complete, execute, and deliver to the Placement Agents an executed copy of a Subscription Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto together with an Investor Questionnaire, and (ii) deliver to the Escrow Agent payment for such purchase in the form of a wire transfer of immediately available funds in the amount that the Investor desires to purchase in accordance with the wire transfer instructions set forth in the Subscription Agreement. Any payment received that does not conform to this requirement will be returned to an Investor by the end of the next business day following receipt. In the event funds are received by Keating or Axiom, such party shall hold all such Subscription Agreements for safekeeping and immediately forward all such funds to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent, upon receipt of such funds, will hold the funds in an escrow account pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. The Placement Agents shall promptly forward each executed Subscription Agreement received to Infosmart for acceptance or rejection, together with a schedule setting forth the name and address of each subscriber and the amount received from each subscriber.
 
(c)    In the event that acceptable subscriptions for $7,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Shares (the “Minimum Amount”) shall not have been received and accepted by the Placement Agents by the Termination Date, all funds received from subscribers (if any) shall be returned in full, and the Placement Agents’ agencies and this Agreement shall terminate without obligation on their part or on the part of Infosmart or Cyber Merchants.
 
(d)    If, by the Termination Date or such earlier time as may be agreed upon by the Placement Agents and Infosmart, the Placement Agents have received subscriptions for the Minimum Amount and such subscriptions have been accepted by Infosmart (in its sole discretion) and the other conditions to Closing of the Offering have been satisfied, the Placement Agents shall promptly notify Infosmart in writing of the aggregate amount of Shares and Warrants for which the Placement Agents have received subscriptions (the “Notice Date”). Payment of the purchase price for the Shares and Warrants, and delivery, with respect to each subscriber for the Shares and Warrants, of a copy of a Subscription Agreement signed by such subscriber (the “Closing”), shall then be made at such place and time as shall be agreed upon between the Placement Agents and Infosmart, no later than the fifth full business day after the Notice Date (the “Closing Date”).
 
(e)    As compensation for the Placement Agents’ services, Infosmart will pay the Placement Agents a cash fee (“Fee”) with respect to all subscriptions as to which the payments and deliveries provided for in this Section 4 are made at the Closing Date equal to 8% of the gross proceeds from the Offering. Such cash Fees shall be paid to the Placement Agents, in immediately available funds, pursuant to a mutually agreeable disbursement schedule provided to Infosmart by the Placement Agents prior to the Closing Date.
 
(f)    In addition, Infosmart agrees to pay the Placement Agents a non-accountable expense allowance (“Allowance”) equal to 2% of the gross proceeds from the Offering. Infosmart will pay Keating a $10,000 non-refundable advance against the Allowance at the time the Offering is commenced. Such Allowance (less any advance previously paid) shall be paid to Keating, as the Lead Placement Agent, on the Closing Date by bank wire transfer payable in
 
-24-

 

immediately available funds, and shall be allocated among the Placement Agents as they may separately agree.
 
(g)    Infosmart will pay all costs and expenses related to the Offering and/or the performance of Infosmart’s obligations under this Agreement, including preparation and distribution of the Memorandum and related documentation, accounting fees, legal fees, experts’ fees, consultants’ fees, escrow fees, filing fees with the SEC and applicable states, any costs and expenses to qualify the Shares and Warrants for sale in any state, any all costs and expenses for investor or road show presentations, any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Placement Agents in connection with the preparation of closing books and post-Closing expenses. Except for the specific expenses of Placement Agents set forth above, Infosmart shall not be responsible for any expenses of the Placement Agents or any Additional Agents (as hereinafter defined) incurred in connection with the Offering, including, but without limitation, attorneys’ fee, operating expenses, travel expenses and other incidental expenses incurred by the Placement Agents or any Additional Agents.
 
(h)    Neither Keating, Axiom, Infosmart, Cyber Merchants nor any Additional Agent (as hereinafter defined) shall, directly or indirectly, pay or award any finder’s fees, commissions or other compensation to any person engaged by a potential investor for investment advice as an inducement to such advisor to advise the purchase of the Shares and Warrants; provided, however, that normal sales commissions payable to a registered broker-dealer or other properly licensed person for selling the Shares and Warrants shall not be prohibited hereby.
 
(i)    As additional compensation, Infosmart will issue to the Placement Agents or their designees on the Closing Date a Common Stock purchase warrant (the “Agent Warrants”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C granting such party the right to purchase from Infosmart for a period commencing after the Closing Date and ending five years after the Closing Date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 10% of the number of Conversion Shares underlying the Shares purchased at the Closing. Such Agent Warrants shall be issued by Infosmart to the Placement Agents in accordance with Keating’s instructions, as Lead Placement Agent, which shall be in accordance with the Placement Agents’ separate agreement, for an issue price of $0.0001 per warrant. The Agent Warrants shall be exercisable at an exercise price equaling 125% of the conversion price of the Shares. Such Agent Warrants shall not be redeemable by Infosmart and may be exercised on a cashless or net-issuance basis. Infosmart hereby grants the same registration rights to the Placement Agents or their designees with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Agent Warrants as are granted to Investors with respect to the Warrants as set forth in this Agreement.
 
(j)    In connection with the Offering, the Placement Agents will, to the extent within their control, conduct the Offering in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Regulation D so as to preserve for Infosmart the exemption provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D. The Placement Agents agree not to offer or sell the Shares and Warrants by means of (i) any means of general solicitation, including any advertisement, article, notice, or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or (ii) any seminar or meeting, whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or general advertising. Prior to the sale of any of the Shares and Warrants, the Placement Agents will have reasonable grounds to believe, and in fact believe, that each subscriber for the Shares and Warrants is an Accredited Investor. The Placement Agents agree
 
-25-

 

not to disclose any material nonpublic information regarding Infosmart to any subscriber except as such disclosure may be permitted pursuant to Regulation FD, is included in the Memorandum or other written information provided to the Placement Agents by Infosmart, or is otherwise is agreed to in advance by Infosmart.
 
(k)    In connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the Lead Placement Agent may engage, for the account of Infosmart, the services of one or more broker-dealers (“Additional Agents”) who are members of NASD and who are acceptable to Infosmart, and, as compensation for their services, shall pay to such Additional Agents an amount to be negotiated between the Lead Placement Agent and such Additional Agents. Such amount will be paid to the Additional Agents by the Lead Placement Agent only out of the cash fees received by you in respect of sales of the Shares and Warrants as described in paragraph (e) of this Section 4, and Infosmart shall have no obligation to any Additional Agents respecting any such payment. The arrangements, if any, between Infosmart, you, and any Additional Agent shall be set forth in an Additional Agent Agreement (“Additional Agent Agreement”), which shall provide, among other things, that such Additional Agent shall be deemed to have agreed to the matters set forth herein as if the Additional Agent were a signatory hereof. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in the Additional Agent Agreement shall be deemed to constitute the Additional Agents, if any, as agents of the Lead Placement Agent, and the Lead Placement Agent shall not be liable to Infosmart in respect of the performance by the Additional Agents, if any, of any representations, warranties or covenants of such Additional Agents contained herein or in the Additional Agent Agreement.
 
5.    Covenants and Agreements of Infosmart and Cyber Merchants. Infosmart and Cyber Merchants severally and not jointly covenant and agree with the Placement Agents that:
 
(a)    Except as contemplated or described in this Agreement, the Exchange Agreement or in a public disclosure made prior to the date hereof, neither Infosmart nor Cyber Merchants will, prior to the Closing Date, incur any material liability or obligation, direct or contingent, or enter into any material transaction, in each case, other than in the ordinary course of business. Infosmart nor Cyber Merchants will, prior to the Closing Date, declare or pay any dividend on its shares of common or preferred stock or any distribution on its common or preferred stock payable to stockholders of record on a date prior to the Closing Date.
 
(b)    Infosmart will cooperate with the Placement Agents to enable the Shares and Warrants to be qualified for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Placement Agents may designate, subject to approval by Infosmart, and at the Placement Agents’ request will make such applications and furnish such information as may be required of it for that purpose; provided, however, that the Placement Agents and Infosmart shall first determine whether an exemption from registration other than the Uniform Limited Offering Exemption (ULOE) or a similar exemption is available in each such jurisdiction and Infosmart shall not be required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction or to subject itself to taxation. Infosmart will, from time to time, prepare and file all applications, forms and documents required in each jurisdiction where the Shares and Warrants are to be qualified or registered or qualified or offered in an exempt transaction under the state securities laws, and Infosmart will continue such qualifications in effect for so long a period as the Placement Agents may reasonably request for the distribution of the Shares and Warrants.
 
-26-

 

Infosmart shall provide the Placement Agents with copies of all applications, forms and documents filed in each jurisdiction.
 
(c)    Infosmart will make available to the Placement Agents and each purchaser of the Shares and Warrants at a reasonable time prior to the Closing Date the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the Offering and to obtain any additional information that Infosmart possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to verify the accuracy of any information in the Memorandum, the Exchange Act Documents or otherwise furnished by Infosmart to the Placement Agents or any purchaser of the Shares and Warrants; provided, however, that Infosmart shall not be required to disclose any material nonpublic information to any purchaser of the Shares and Warrants.
 
(d)    Infosmart or its counsel will prepare and file a Form D (and any and all amendments or supplements thereto) with the SEC in timely manner and deliver copies thereof to the Placement Agents, together with copies of all forms (including without limitation, Form Ds) and other documents and/or materials filed either before or after the Closing, and comply with Regulation D and all applicable state Blue Sky laws and make any fillings required by the SEC and state securities authorities in a timely manner.
 
(e)    Infosmart will not offer or sell any securities of Infosmart that are of the same or a similar class as the Shares and Warrants for a period of six months after the Closing Date, other than those offers or sales of securities under an employee benefit plan as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, in connection with options, warrants, or convertible securities outstanding as of the Closing Date, or in connection with an acquisition of assets or another business by Infosmart, if such offering will be integrated with the Offering of the Shares and Warrants pursuant to this Agreement for purposes of the exemptions under Regulation D, so as to invalidate the exemption from registration relied on to offer and sell the Shares and Warrants.
 
(f)    For a period of at least 24 months following the Closing Date, Infosmart will maintain the registration of Cyber Merchants’ common stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act so long as the Exchange Act requires it to be so registered, will comply in all respects with its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act, and will not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the Exchange Act or the rules thereunder) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under said Act unless required to do so by the Exchange Act.
 
(g)    Infosmart shall prepare and file with the OTC BB an additional shares listing application covering the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares and exercise of the Warrants and Agent Warrants and take all steps necessary to cause such shares to be approved for listing as soon as practicable thereafter.
 
(h)    For a period of at least 24 months following the Closing Date, Infosmart will use its best efforts (i) to timely file all reports required to be filed by Cyber Merchants under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (including the reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act referred to in subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule 144) and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder), (ii) if Cyber Merchants is not required to file reports pursuant to such sections, Infosmart will prepare and furnish to the purchasers of the Shares and Warrants and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is
 
-27-

 

required for the purchasers to sell the shares underlying the Shares and Warrants under Rule 144, and (iii) to take such further action as any holder of the Shares and Warrants may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the purchasers to sell shares underlying the Shares and Warrants without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144, including causing its attorneys to issue and deliver any appropriate legal opinion required to permit a purchaser to sell shares underlying the Shares and Warrants under Rule 144 upon receipt of appropriate documentation relating to such sale.
 
(i)    Infosmart and Cyber Merchants shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Transactions.
 
6.    Memorandum. Infosmart warrants and represents to the Placement Agents that the Memorandum, and any amendments or supplements thereto, as of the date hereof, and at all subsequent times through the Closing, together with all other information concerning Infosmart provided to the Placement Agents in connection with the Offering, shall in all material respects conform to all applicable provisions of the Securities Act, the rules and regulations under the Securities Act and state securities laws, and shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
 
7.    Indemnification and Contribution.
 
(a)    Infosmart agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Keating, Axiom, each Additional Agent, and each person, if any, who controls Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent within the meaning of the Securities Act (the “Indemnified Parties”), along with the agents and advisors of such Indemnified Parties, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (including, unless Infosmart elects to assume the defense as hereinafter provided, the reasonable cost of investigating and defending against any claims therefor and counsel fees incurred in connection therewith), joint or several, which arise out of Infosmart’s breach of a representation or warranty or covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement (it being understood that in the event the Transactions are not completed, Infosmart shall not provide any indemnity or contribution with respect to breaches by Cyber Merchants); provided that in no case is Infosmart to be liable with respect to any claims made against Keating, Axiom, such Additional Agent, or any such controlling person unless Keating, Axiom, such Additional Agent, or such controlling person shall have notified Infosmart in writing promptly after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon it, but failure to notify Infosmart of any such claim shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to such party otherwise than on account of the indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph. Infosmart will be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense, or if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such liability, but, if Infosmart elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by it and reasonably acceptable to the indemnified parties. In the event Infosmart elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such counsel, Keating, Axiom, such Additional Agent, or such controlling person or persons, defendant or defendants in the suit, may retain additional counsel but shall bear the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (i) Infosmart shall have specifically authorized the retaining of such counsel or (ii) the parties to such suit include Keating, Axiom, such Additional Agent, or such controlling person or persons, and Infosmart
 
-28-

 

and Keating, Axiom, such Additional Agent, or such controlling person or persons have been advised by counsel that one or more material legal defenses may be available to Keating, Axiom, such Additional Agent, or them that may not be available to Infosmart in which case Infosmart shall not be entitled to assume the defense of such suit notwithstanding its obligation to bear the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. In no event shall Infosmart be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. Infosmart shall not be required to indemnify any person for any settlement of any such claim effected without Infosmart’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Infosmart shall not, without an indemnified party’s consent, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. This indemnification obligation will be in addition to any primary liability that Infosmart might otherwise have.
 
(b)    Keating, Axiom and each Additional Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Infosmart, each of Infosmart’s officers, directors, and each other person, if any, who controls Infosmart within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (including, unless Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent elects to assume the defense, the reasonable cost of investigating and defending against any claims therefor and counsel fees incurred in connection therewith), joint or several, which (i) arise out of any untrue statement of a material fact with respect to Infosmart made by Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent to any purchaser of Shares and Warrants not contained in an Exchange Act Document, the Memorandum or other written material provided to Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent by Infosmart, (ii) arise out of any acts or omissions by Keating, Axiom, any Additional Agent, or any purchaser of the Shares or Warrants that cause the offering to involve a public offering under the Securities Act or such party’s failure to be properly licensed to sell the Shares or Warrants, or (iii) arise out of such party’s breach of a representation or warranty or covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that in no case are Keating, Axiom or any Additional Agent to be liable with respect to any claims made against Infosmart or any such person against whom the action is brought unless Infosmart or such person shall have notified Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent, as the case may be, in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon Infosmart or such person, but failure to provide such notification shall not relieve Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent from any liability that Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent may have to Infosmart or such person otherwise than on account of the indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph. Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent shall be entitled to participate at its expense in the defense, or if Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent so elect, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such liability, but, if Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent elect to assume the defense, counsel chosen by Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent and reasonably acceptable to Infosmart shall conduct such defense. In the event that Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent elect to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such counsel, Infosmart, said officers and directors and any person or persons, defendant or defendants in the suit, may retain additional counsel but shall bear the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (i) the indemnifying parties shall have specifically authorized the retaining of such counsel or (ii) the parties to such suit include Keating, Axiom, such Additional Agent, or such controlling person or
 
-29-

 

persons, and Infosmart and Keating, Axiom, such Additional Agent, or such controlling person or persons have been advised by counsel that one or more material legal defenses may be available to Infosmart that may not be available to Keating, Axiom or them in which case the indemnifying party parties not be entitled to assume the defense of such suit notwithstanding their obligation to bear the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Keating, Axiom or such Additional Agent shall not be liable to indemnify any person for any settlement of any such claim effected without its consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Keating, Axiom or an Additional Agent shall not, without the consent of Infosmart, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. This indemnification obligation will be in addition to any primary liability that Keating, Axiom or any Additional Agent might otherwise have.
 
(c)    If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by Infosmart on one hand and Keating, Axiom and the Additional Agents, if any, on the other from the Offering, but also the relative fault of Infosmart on the one hand and Keating, Axiom and the Additional Agents, if any, on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by Infosmart on the one hand and Keating, Axiom and the Additional Agents, if any, on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total gross proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by Infosmart, bear to the total cash fees received by Keating, Axiom and the Additional Agents, if any, pursuant to Section 4(e) and the value of the Agent Warrant issued to Keating, Axiom and the Additional Agents, if any, pursuant to Section 4(i). The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Infosmart, Keating, Axiom, or an Additional Agent, the party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission, and whether a party breached a representation or warranty or covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement. Infosmart and Keating, Axiom and the Additional Agents agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
 
8.    Survival of Indemnities, Representations, Warranties, etc. The respective representations and warranties of Keating, Axiom and Infosmart as set forth in this Agreement or made by them respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Keating, Axiom, Infosmart, or any of the officers or directors of Infosmart or any controlling person, and shall survive delivery of and payment for

the Shares and Warrants for a period ending on the date two years subsequent to the Closing Date.

This Agreement may be terminated after the Effective Time by (a) Infosmart for any reason by notice to the Placement Agents, and (b) the Placement Agents by notice to Infosmart (i) if, Infosmart shall materially breach any of its representations and warranties in this Agreement or shall fail to fulfill its covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement; (ii) if at or prior to the Closing Date there shall have been a material escalation of hostilities between the United States and any foreign country (other than Iraq), or any other material insurrection or armed conflict involving the United States which, in the reasonable judgment of Keating, as Lead Placement Agent, after consultation with Infosmart, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to offer or sell the Share and Warrants; or (iii) if there shall be any material litigation or regulatory action, pending or threatened against or involving Infosmart, which, in the reasonable judgment of Keating, as Lead Placement Agent, after consultation with Infosmart, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to offer or deliver the Shares and Warrants on the terms contemplated by this Agreement.
 
If, and only if, Infosmart terminates this Agreement after it becomes effective for any reason (other than Keating’s or Axiom’s material failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or material breach of its representations and warranties) or the Offering fails to close because of Infosmart’s breach of any representations or warranties contained in this Agreement

or Infosmart’s failure to fulfill its covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, Infosmart shall pay the Placement Agents their actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred (less than amount of the advance of the Allowance paid under Section 4(f)).
 
12.    Agreement Concerning Disclosure of Information. The Placement Agents agree to treat confidentially any information that is furnished to such parties (or to parties acting on their behalf) by or on behalf of Infosmart (the “Information”) until such time as such Information is disclosed to the public (including disclosures in SEC filings). The Placement Agents agree that they will use the Information only for the purposes related to a determination of your willingness to act as exclusive selling agents pursuant to this Agreement, and that the Information will be kept confidential by them and their partners, members, managers, officers, directors, employees, agents, and other affiliates (collectively, the “Affiliates”), and their attorneys and accountants (collectively, the “Professionals”), and that the Placement Agents, such Affiliates, or Professionals will not disclose the Information to any Investor or other person; provided, however, that the Information may be disclosed to (a) Additional Agents, Affiliates and Professionals who need to know such Information for the purpose of evaluating or providing services in connection with the Placement Agents and their clients’ investment in Infosmart; provided such parties agree to be bound by this undertaking, (b) to any federal or state regulatory agency and their employees, agents, and attorneys (collectively, “Regulators”) for the purpose of making any filings with Regulators if disclosure of such Information is required by law (provided that you advise Infosmart in writing of the Information to be so disclosed within a reasonable time prior to such filing), and (c) any other person to which Infosmart consents in writing prior to any such disclosure.
 
In the event that either of the Placement Agents are requested or required (by oral questions, documents, subpoena, civil investigation, demand, interrogatories, request for information, or other similar process) to disclose to any person or entity any information supplied to such party, Additional Agents, its Affiliates, or its Professionals in the course of their dealings with Infosmart or their respective representatives, such Placement Agent agrees that it will provide Infosmart with prompt notice of such request(s) within a reasonable time prior to such disclosure so that Infosmart may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waiver of compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. It is further agreed that, if a protective order is not obtained, or a waiver is not granted hereunder, and such Placement Agent is nonetheless, in the written opinion of counsel, compelled to disclose information concerning Infosmart to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt or suffer the censure or penalty, such Placement Agent may disclose such information to such tribunal without liability hereunder. Prior to making such disclosure, such Placement Agent shall deliver a written opinion of its counsel to Infosmart’s counsel that disclosure is compelled by law. Such Placement Agent will exercise its best efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Information.
 
Before Infosmart releases any information referring to the Placement Agents’ role under this Offering or uses the Placement Agents’ name in a manner which may result in public dissemination thereof, Infosmart shall furnish drafts of all documents or prepared oral statements to the Placement Agents for comments, and shall not release any information relating thereto without the prior written consent of the Placement Agents. Nothing herein shall prevent Infosmart from releasing any information to the extent that such release is required by law, rule or regulation.
