In consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and the applicable provisions of Georgia Law, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Company, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and

1

Company shall continue as the surviving corporation of the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

1.2 Effective Time; Closing. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing a certificate of merger, in such appropriate form as determined by the parties, with the Secretary of State of the State of Georgia in accordance with the relevant provisions of Georgia Law (the “Certificate of Merger”) (the time of such filing (or such later time as may be agreed in writing by Company and Parent and specified in the Certificate of Merger) being the “Effective Time”) as soon as practicable following satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Fenwick & West LLP, located at 275 Battery Street, San Francisco, California, at a time and date to be specified by the parties, which shall be no later than the second business day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI, or at such other time, date and location as the parties hereto agree in writing (the “Closing Date”).

1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of Georgia Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

1.4 Articles of Incorporation; Bylaws.

(a) At the Effective Time, the Articles of Incorporation of Company shall be amended and restated in its entirety to be identical to the Articles of Incorporation of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time except that, Article I of the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall read as follows: The name of the corporation is “MediaBin, Inc.”

(b) At the Effective Time, the Bylaws of Company shall be amended and restated in their entirety to be identical to the Bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time.

1.5 Directors and Officers. The initial directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified. The initial officers of the Surviving Corporation shall be the officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, until their respective successors are duly appointed.

1.6 Effect on Capital Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or holders of any shares of capital stock of the Company, the following shall occur:

(a) Company Common Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately

2

prior to the Effective Time (the “Shares”), other than shares of Company Common Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.6(c) and, other than as provided in Section 1.8 with respect to Shares as to which dissenters’ rights have been perfected, will be canceled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive the Per Share Consideration in cash (the “Merger Consideration”) in the manner provided in Section 1.7. “Per Share Consideration” means the quotient of (i) $5.0 million plus the total exercise price of all In-the-Money Options (as converted into Norwegian Kroner utilizing the exchange rate that Parent may convert US Dollars into Norwegian Kroner on business day immediately prior to the Closing Date), divided by (ii) the total number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock at the Closing plus the sum of the total number shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all In-the-Money Options.

(b) Repurchase Rights. If any shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time are unvested or are subject to a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with the Company, then, at Parent’s option and in Parent’s sole discretion, the Merger Consideration in respect of such shares shall either be (i) paid to the holder thereof, in the manner provided in Section 1.7, without restriction or (ii) paid to the holder thereof over time upon satisfaction of the vesting requirements associated with the applicable restructured stock schedule.

(c) Cancellation of Company-Owned and Parent-Owned Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock held by Company or owned by Merger Sub, Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof.

(d) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation. Following the Effective Time, each certificate evidencing ownership of shares of common stock of Merger Sub shall evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(e) Stock Options. At the Effective Time, all options to purchase Company Common Stock (the “Company Options”) then outstanding under Company’s 1994 Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan (the “1994 Option Plan”) and 2001 Stock Option Plan (the “2001 Option Plan”, together with the 1994 Option Plan, the “Option Plans”) shall be assumed by Parent. Each Company Option so assumed shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (A) such assumed Company Option will be exercisable for the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole number of Parent Common Stock, and (B) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Option shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such assumed Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Closing Date by the

3

Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole cent; provided, however, that in the case of any Company Option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 422 of the Code, the option price, the number of shares purchasable pursuant to such option and the terms and conditions of exercise of such option shall be determined in order to comply with Section 424 of the Code. The “Exchange Ratio” shall be the number obtained by dividing (A) the Per Share Consideration, by (B) $1.807.

(f) Warrants. At the Effective Time, each outstanding warrant to purchase Company Common Stock (a “Company Warrant”), whether or not exercisable, will be assumed by Parent. Each Company Warrant so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) each Company Warrant will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Warrant will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Company Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole cent. The Company will require that with respect to any Company Warrant that may be terminated by the Company, that such Company Warrant be terminated or exercised prior to the Effective Time.

(g) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Per Share Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

1.7 Payment for Shares.

(a) Paying Agent. Parent shall select an institution reasonably acceptable to Company to act as the paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) in the Merger who is anticipated to be Den norske Bank ASA.

(b) Parent to Provide Merger Consideration. At or before the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into an agreement with the Paying Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, which shall provide that Parent shall make available to the Paying Agent for payment in accordance with this Article I, and Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent the cash payable pursuant to Section 1.6(a) in exchange for outstanding shares of Company Common Stock. Any cash deposited with the Paying Agent shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Merger Fund.”

(c) Exchange Procedures. Other than with respect to Shares to which a shareholder of Company has exercised dissenters’ rights and Shares held by Venturos AS, Glastad Holding, Ltd. and Gezina AS, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to make payment for

4

the Shares or if no bank account is registered for certain Shares, make payment directly from Parent by check or wire transfer.

(d) No Transfer of Ownership. The Merger Consideration is to be paid to the person in whose name the Shares are registered.

(e) Required Withholding. Each of the Paying Agent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder or former holder of Company Common Stock such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax law or under any other applicable Legal Requirement (as defined in Section 2.2(c)). To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(f) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.6(g), neither the Paying Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation nor any party hereto shall be liable to a holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

(g) Investment of Merger Fund. The Paying Agent shall invest the Merger Fund as directed by Parent on a daily basis; provided that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable or the timing of payments to Company shareholders pursuant to this Article I. Any interest and other income resulting from such investment shall become a part of the Merger Fund, and any amounts in excess of the amounts payable to Company shareholders pursuant to this Article I shall promptly be paid to Parent.

(h) Termination of Merger Fund. Any portion of the Merger Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates six months after the Effective Time shall, at the request on the instruction of the Surviving Corporation, be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, and any holders of the Certificates who have not surrendered such Certificates in compliance with this Section 1.7 shall after such delivery to the Surviving Corporation look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.6(a). Any such portion of the Merger Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Shares immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity (as defined in Section 2.4) shall, to the extent permitted by law, become the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

1.8 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding Section 1.6, Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who has delivered written notice to demand payment for such Shares in accordance with the Georgia Law (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration, unless such holder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses its rights to dissent or it is determined that such holder does not have dissenters’ rights in accordance with Georgia Law. If after the Effective Time such holder fails to perfect or

5

withdraws or loses its right to dissent, or if it is determined that such holder does not have a dissenters’ right, such Shares shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive in exchange for each Share the Merger Consideration. The Company shall give Parent and Merger Sub prompt notice of any demands received by the Company for dissenters’ right of Shares, and Parent and Merger Sub shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands except as required by applicable law. The Company shall not, except with prior written consent of Parent and Merger Sub, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

1.9 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. All cash paid upon the surrender for payment of shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of Shares. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

1.10 Reserved.

1.11 Alternative Transaction Structure. The parties agree that Parent may change the method of effecting the business combination with Company, including by merging Company with an affiliate of Parent, and Company shall cooperate in such efforts, including by entering into an appropriate amendment to this Agreement (to the extent such amendment does not adversely affect the rights and obligations of Company or its shareholders); provided, however that such affiliate shall become a party to, and agree to be bound by, the terms of this Agreement and that any action taken pursuant to this Section 1.11 shall not (i) alter or change the kind or amount of consideration to be issued to the holders of Company Common Stock as provided for in this Agreement, (ii) materially delay the receipt of any required regulatory approval, or (iii) otherwise cause the closing conditions in Article VI to not be capable of being fulfilled (unless duly waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof).

1.12 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of Company and Merger Sub will take all such lawful and necessary action. Parent shall cause Merger Sub to perform all of its obligations relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
