AGREEMENT
1. Plan of Reorganization.

2. Terms of Merger. In accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the requirements of applicable law, Radium Sub shall be merged with and into ITV as of the Effective Date (the terms “Closing” and “Effective Date” are defined in Section 6 hereof).

(b) Conversion of Securities.
As of the Effective Date and without any action on the part of Radium, Radium Sub, ITV or the holders of any of the securities of any of these corporations, each of the following shall occur:
2
(1) Each share of ITV Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be converted into 663.53314 shares of Radium Common Stock. Accordingly, the 33,333 outstanding shares of ITV Common Stock shall be converted into a total of 22,117,550 shares of Radium Common Stock. All such shares of ITV Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each certificate previously evidencing any such shares shall thereafter represent the right to receive, upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 hereof, certificates evidencing such number of shares of Radium Common Stock, respectively, into which such shares of ITV Common Stock were converted. The holders of such certificates previously evidencing shares of ITV Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of ITV Common Stock except as otherwise provided herein or by law;
(2) Any shares of ITV capital stock held in the treasury of ITV immediately prior to the Effective Date shall automatically be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof and no payment shall be made with respect thereto;
(3) Each share of capital stock of Radium Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date shall remain in existence as one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation, which shall be owned by Radium;
(4) The 1,882,450 shares of Radium Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will remain outstanding after the Merger.
(c) Other Matters.
(1) A vacancy currently exists on the Board of Directors of Radium. Prior to the Closing, the existing sole director of Radium shall nominate and elect one person designated by ITV to fill the current vacancy on the Board of Directors of Radium, which election shall become effective on the Effective Date immediately following the effectiveness of the Merger.

(d) Tax Treatment. The parties intend that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization (a “reorganization”) under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and agree to report the Merger consistent with that intent.

Radium has not received notice of any noncompliance with the foregoing, nor is it aware of any claims or threatened claims in connection therewith. Radium has never conducted any operations or engaged in any business transactions whatsoever other than as set forth in the reports Radium has previously filed with the SEC.

(r) Radium has filed all required documents, reports and schedules with the SEC, the NASD and any applicable state or regional securities regulators or authorities (collectively, the “Radium SEC Documents”). As of their respective dates, the Radium SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act, the NASD rules and regulations and state and regional securities laws and regulations, as the case may be, and, at the respective times they were filed, none of the Radium SEC Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements (including, in each case, any notes thereto) of Radium included in the Radium SEC Documents complied as to form and substance in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (except as may be indicated therein or in the notes thereto) applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated therein or in the notes thereto) and fairly presented in all material respects the financial position of Radium as of the respective dates thereof and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and to any other adjustments described therein).

All consulting, employment and other agreements and arrangements between Radium and its editors or “Scribes” have been validly terminated, and all such agreements and arrangements previously did comply, and have at all times been in full compliance, with all U.S. or Canadian employment or other applicable rules and regulations. The termination of any existing employment with Mr. Whittle, or termination of the other agreements with prior Radium employees, consultants or independent contractors will not and did not subject Radium (or ITV after the Merger) to any U.S. or Canadian workers’ compensation, unemployment compensation and other government-mandated program or obligation or liability.

(x) No representation or warranty by Radium or Radium Sub contained in this Agreement and no statement contained in any certificate, schedule or other communication furnished pursuant to or in connection with the provisions hereof contains or shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading. There is no current or prior event or condition of any kind or character pertaining to Radium that may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Radium or its subsidiaries. Except as specifically indicated elsewhere in this Agreement, all documents delivered by Radium in connection herewith have been and will be complete originals, or exact copies thereof.
(y) Assuming all corporate consents and approvals have been obtained and assuming the appropriate filings and mailings are made by Radium under the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as amended, with the SEC, and with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, the execution and delivery by Radium of this Agreement and the closing documents and the consummation by Radium of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) require the consent, approval or action of, or any filing or notice to, any corporation, firm, person or other entity or any public, governmental or judicial authority (except for such consents, approvals, actions, filing or notices the failure of which to make or obtain will not in the aggregate have a material adverse effect); or (ii) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, judgment, ruling, law, rule or regulation of any federal, state, county, municipal, or foreign court or governmental authority applicable to Radium, or its business or assets. Radium is not subject to, or a party to, any mortgage, lien, lease, agreement, contract, instrument, order, judgment or decree or any other material restriction of any kind or character which would prevent, hinder or impair the continued operation of the business of Radium (or to the Knowledge of Radium, the continued operation of the business of ITV) after the Closing.

15
(a) The parties shall indemnify each other as set forth below:
(1) From and after the Closing and for a period of eighteen months following the Closing Date, subject to the provisions of this Section 10, each of the Founders, Radium and Radium Sub (individually and collectively, the “Radium Group”) shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless ITV and ITV’s past, present and future officers, directors, stockholders, employees, attorneys, and agents (and after the Closing, the Founders shall also indemnify Radium) (collectively, the “ITV Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses (as defined below) including, without limitation, any reasonable legal expenses to the extent arising from, relating to or otherwise in respect of (i) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of the Radium Group contained in Sections 5 or 13 of this Agreement (as of the date hereof, or as of the Closing Date and Effective Date) or of any representation, warranty or statement made in any schedule, certificate document or instrument delivered by the Radium Group or any officer or any of them at or in connection with the Closing, in each case without giving effect to any materiality qualification (including qualifications indicating accuracy in all material respects), or (ii) the breach by the Radium Group, of or failure by the Radium Group to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that (A) no member of the Radium Group shall be responsible for any Losses with respect to the matters referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 10(a), until the cumulative aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds $500.00, in which event the Radium Group shall then be liable for all such cumulative aggregate Losses, including the first $500.00. Each member of the Radium Group specifically acknowledges and agrees that any ITV Indemnified Party may proceed against any member of the Radium Group under this Section 10 without contemporaneously, or at any time, proceeding against any other member of the Radium Group. As used herein, “Losses” shall mean any and all demands, claims, complaints, actions or causes of action, suits, proceedings, investigations, arbitrations, assessments, losses, damages, payments, liabilities or obligations (including those arising out of any action, such as any settlement or compromise thereof or judgment or award therein) and any fees, costs and expenses related thereto (net of any directly related insurance payments or recoveries received or to be received from third party insurers), and the term “legal expenses” shall mean the fees, costs and expenses of any kind incurred by any party indemnified herein and its counsel in investigating, preparing for, defending against or providing evidence, producing documents or taking other action with respect to any threatened or asserted claim.
(2) From and after the Closing and for a period of eighteen months following the Closing Date, subject to the provisions of this Section 10, ITV shall indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Radium Group (collectively, the “Radium Group Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses (including, without limitation, any reasonable legal expenses) to the extent arising from, relating to or otherwise in respect of (i) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of ITV contained in Sections 4 or 13 of this Agreement (as of the date hereof, or as of the Closing Date and Effective Date) or of any representation, warranty or statement made in any schedule, certificate document or instrument delivered by ITV or an officer of ITV at or in connection with the Closing, in each case without giving effect to any materiality qualification (including qualifications indicating accuracy in all material respects), or (ii) the breach by ITV of or failure by ITV to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that ITV shall not be responsible for any Losses with respect to the matters until the cumulative aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds $500.00, in which event ITV shall then be liable for all such cumulative aggregate Losses, including the first $500.00.
16
(3) In order for an ITV Indemnified Party or Radium Group Indemnified Party (an “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of its claim for indemnification with reasonable promptness after determining to make such claim, to the Radium Group or any member thereof (in the case of any indemnification claim under Section 10(a)(1)) or ITV (in the case of any indemnification claim under Section 10(a)(2)). The failure by any Indemnified Party to notify the Radium Group (or any member thereof) or ITV, as the case may be, shall not relieve any relevant indemnifying party (each relevant member of the Radium Group, or ITV, as the case may be, being referred to herein as an “Indemnifying Party”) from any liability which he or it may have to such Indemnified Party under this Agreement, except to the extent that such claim for indemnification involves the claim of a third party against the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced by such failure. If an Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 30 calendar days following receipt by it of such notice that such Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement, such claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of such Indemnifying Party under this Agreement and such Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined. If an Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, as provided above, such Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(4) (i)If the claim involves a third party claim (a “Third Party Claim”), then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole cost, expense and ultimate liability regardless of the outcome, and through counsel of its choice (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party), to litigate, defend, settle or otherwise attempt to resolve such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that if in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest may exist between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to select counsel of its own choosing, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party, in which event the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such counsel.
17
(ii) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, if in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment no such conflict exists, the Indemnified Party may, but will not be obligated to, participate at its own expense in a defense of such Third Party Claim by counsel of its own choosing, but the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to control the defense unless (A) in the case where only money damages are sought, the Indemnified Party has relieved the Indemnifying Party from liability with respect to the particular matter or (B) in the case where equitable relief is sought, the Indemnified Party elects to participate in and jointly control the defense thereof.
(iii) Whenever the Indemnifying Party controls the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may only settle or compromise the matter subject to indemnification without the consent of the Indemnified Party if such settlement includes a complete release of all Indemnified Parties as to the matters in dispute and relates solely to money damages. The Indemnified Party will not unreasonably withhold consent to any settlement or compromise that requires its consent.
(iv) In the event the Indemnifying Party fails to timely defend, contest, or otherwise protect the Indemnified Party against any such claim or suit, the Indemnified Party may, but will not be obligated to, defend, contest, or otherwise protect against the same, and make any compromise or settlement thereof, and in such event, or in the case where the Indemnified Party jointly controls such claim or suit, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover its costs thereof from the Indemnifying Party, including attorneys’ fees, disbursements and all amounts paid as a result of such claim or suit or the compromise or settlement thereof.
(v) The Indemnified Party shall cooperate and provide such assistance as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in connection with the defense of the matter subject to indemnification and in connection with recovering from any third parties amounts that the Indemnifying Party may pay or be required to pay by way of indemnification hereunder.
(b) The amount of Losses for which indemnification is provided hereunder shall be computed without regard to any insurance recovery related to such losses.

All of the parties hereto are executing and carrying out the provisions of this Agreement in reliance solely on the representations, warranties and covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and the other documents delivered at the Closing and not upon any representation, warranty, agreement, promise or information, written or oral, made by the other party or any other person other than as specifically set forth herein.
