c. Buyer hereby agrees with the Company that, subject to, and effective upon, the Condition Satisfaction Date, Buyer hereby waives any breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 3 of the Purchase Agreement, to the extent, and solely to the extent, such breach resulted solely from the status of the Company as a “shell company” (as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the 1934 Act) prior to the Company’s consummation on August 31, 2007 of the merger contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 31, 2007, among the Company, Desktop Interactive, Inc., Customer Acquisition Network, Inc. and Desktop Acquisition Sub, Inc., and acknowledges that Buyer shall have no rights or remedies against the Company as a result of any such breach.
