The parties agree as follows: (Certain terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 10 hereof.) 1. CLOSING. Upon execution and delivery of this Agreement, a closing (the "Closing") will be held at the offices of Bingham Dana LLP, 150 Federal Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110. At or before the Closing, Merger Sub and the Company will execute a certificate of merger and articles of merger (collectively, the "Merger Certificates") substantially in the form of the attached Exhibits A-1 and A-2, respectively, and file them with the respective Secretaries of State of Delaware and Tennessee in order to cause the Merger to be effected in accordance with the laws of the States of Delaware and Tennessee. The Merger will be effective upon the filing of the Merger Certificates (the "Effective Time"). At the Closing, each of the parties will also deliver the closing documents described in the attached Closing Documents Schedule. For all purposes, all of the document deliveries and other actions to occur at the Closing will be conclusively presumed to have occurred at the same time, immediately before the Effective Time. The date on which the Effective Time occurs is referred to herein as the "Closing Date." 2. EFFECT OF MERGER. At the Effective Time, automatically and without further action: 2.1. SURVIVING CORPORATION. The Company will be merged with and into Merger Sub and the separate existence of the Company will cease. Merger Sub will continue in existence as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "Surviving Corporation"). The effect of the Merger will be as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Delaware General Corporation Law, and the Tennessee Business Corporation Act, including that all of the respective properties, rights, privileges, powers, and franchises of Merger Sub and the Company will vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all of the respective debts, liabilities, and duties of Merger Sub and the Company will become the debts, liabilities, and duties of the Surviving Corporation. - 2 - 2.2. CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS. Merger Sub's certificate of incorporation and by-laws, respectively, as in effect immediately before the Effective Time, will be the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Corporation. 2.3. DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. From and after the Effective Time, the respective officers and members of the Board of Directors of Merger Sub as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will continue in office as the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation, subject to change from time to time in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Surviving Corporation's certificate of incorporation and by-laws. 2.4. CONVERSION OF COMPANY'S STOCK. The shares of the Company's capital stock issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time will be converted into and become the right to receive, subject to Sections 2.5 and 3 hereof, an aggregate of (i) 456,009 shares (the "Consideration Shares") of OSI's Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, and (ii) cash in the amount of $1,807,775 (the "Cash Consideration"; and collectively, the Consideration Shares and the Cash Consideration, the "Merger Consideration"). Based in part on the representations and warranties of the Company and the Stockholders set forth in this Agreement, including representations and warranties with respect to the capitalization of the Company, each Stockholder will be entitled, subject to Section 3 hereof, to receive the types and amounts of Merger Consideration indicated opposite such Stockholder's name in the attached Merger Consideration Schedule. 2.5. ESCROW. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, OSI will withhold a portion of the Merger Consideration and will not deliver it to the Stockholders but instead will deposit it in escrow pursuant to an escrow agreement substantially in the form of the attached Exhibit B, with such changes as the escrow agent (who will be chosen as promptly as practicable after the Closing and must be mutually satisfactory to OSI and the Stockholders) may reasonably request to secure the Stockholders' indemnification obligations hereunder. The Merger Consideration to be withheld and escrowed will be as shown in the attached Merger Consideration Schedule. OSI will deposit such withheld Merger Consideration into escrow as promptly as practicable following the selection of the escrow agent and the execution and delivery of the escrow agreement by all parties. Upon the final resolution of each of the following matters, the parties will cause to be released from escrow and delivered to the Stockholders in accordance with their respective entitlements thereto, cash in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) $25,000, over (ii) the aggregate cost, if any, to the Surviving Corporation of finally resolving and settling the matter at issue: (1) The dispute with OnTrack referred to in Section 4.16 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the "OnTrack Dispute"). (2) The dispute with Bank of Naples referred to in Section 4.16 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the "Bank of Naples Dispute"). . 2.6. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. From and after any time at which OSI becomes a public company having a class of equity securities registered pursuant to Section 13 or 15 of the - 3 - Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, if OSI proposes to engage in an underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock to be offered for cash and registered under the Securities Act, OSI will notify the Stockholders who received Consideration Shares hereunder, and such Stockholders will be entitled to include their shares in such registration, provided, that (i) the form of registration statement that OSI proposes to use in connection with such offering permits the inclusion of such Consideration Shares for the accounts of the Stockholders, (ii) such Stockholders execute the form of underwriting agreement executed by OSI in connection with such offering and any other customary agreements or documents requested by OSI or the underwriters of such offering, (iii) no Stockholder will be entitled to include shares in such registration or offering to the extent that this would reduce the number of shares to be included in such registration or offering for the account of any other stockholder of OSI having the contractual right to include shares in such offering (taking into account any limitations on such numbers of shares, including limitations requested by the underwriters for marketing reasons). These registration rights will terminate as to any Stockholder when such Stockholder's Consideration Shares have been resold pursuant to a registration statement, SEC Rule 144, or any exemption from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to which the transferee of such securities does not receive "restricted securities" within the meaning of SEC Rule 144, or when such Stockholder's Consideration Shares can be resold without volume limitation pursuant to SEC Rule 144(k). 2.7. CONVERSION OF MERGER SUB'S SHARES. Each share of the common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Merger Sub that was issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time will be converted into and become one share of the common stock, $0.001 par value, of the Surviving Corporation. 3. EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES. As of the Effective Time: (a) Persons who immediately before the Effective Time were the holders of shares of the Company's capital stock will cease to be, and will have no rights as, holders of the Company's capital stock, but instead will have the right to receive Merger Consideration as provided in this Agreement. (b) Stock certificates ("Certificates") that formerly represented shares of the Company's capital stock that have been converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration will be conclusively deemed to represent only the right to receive such Merger Consideration. (c) The Stockholders will surrender all Certificates to OSI in exchange for the Merger Consideration into which the shares of the Company's capital stock formerly represented by such Certificates have been converted. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Stockholder will be entitled to receive any Merger Consideration until such Stockholder has surrendered to OSI the Certificates formerly representing the shares of the Company's capital stock that have been converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration. - 4 - Neither OSI nor the Surviving Corporation nor any other person will be liable to any holder or former holder of shares of the Company's capital stock for any shares, or any dividends or other distributions with respect to shares, properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned-property, escheat, or similar Laws. In the event that any Certificate has been lost, stolen, or destroyed, then upon receipt by the Surviving Corporation of satisfactory evidence of the loss, theft, or destruction and of the ownership of the Certificate and a customary indemnification agreement, OSI or its paying agent will deliver the Merger Consideration deliverable in exchange for that Certificate. 4.

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Each of the Stockholders will maintain the confidentiality of all confidential, sensitive, or proprietary information of the Company and the Surviving Corporation, including with respect to its businesses, finances, affairs, and technology, which will be and remain the exclusive property of the Surviving Corporation; and unless previously authorized in writing by OSI, and except with respect to information that has otherwise become public through no action or omission on his part, he will not disclose any such information to any third party, or use it for any purpose other than (if applicable) in the discharge of his or her employment or consulting responsibilities in the ordinary course of the Surviving Corporation's business. 7.2. NON-COMPETITION, ETC.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dave Anderson will be entitled to engage, with respect to Rec-Check, Inc. only, in such activities relating to the development of software to identify, track and report (using imaging and also manually) the income and expense coding of checks and deposits for customers of financial institutions. 7.3.

EQUITABLE REMEDIES. Each Stockholder hereby acknowledges that any breach by him, her, or it of his, her, or its obligations under this Section 7 would cause substantial and irreparable damage to OSI and the Surviving Corporation, for which money damages would be an inadequate remedy, and accordingly, acknowledges and agrees that each of OSI and the Surviving Corporation will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, and other equitable relief to prevent the breach of such obligations (in addition to all other rights and remedies to which they may be entitled in respect of any such breach). 7.6. MODIFICATION. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the provisions of this Section 7 would be unenforceable as written because they cover too extensive a geographic area, too broad a range of activities, or too long a period of time, or otherwise, then such provisions will automatically be modified to cover the maximum geographic area, range of activities, and period of time as may be enforceable, and in addition, such court is hereby expressly authorized so to modify this Agreement and to enforce it as so modified.

If each of the following conditions is satisfied, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, and in the case of such an assumption the Indemnifying Party will have the authority to negotiate, compromise, and settle such Third-Party Claim, provided, that the Indemnifying Party will not agree to any settlement of such Third-Party Claim that does not include an unconditional release of all liability of each Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim: (i) The Indemnifying Party confirms in writing that it is obligated hereunder to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim and provides assurances and security reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to ensure that such indemnification can and will be paid; and (ii) The Indemnified Party does not give the Indemnifying Party written notice, within 20 days after such Indemnified Party's receipt of the notice required by the preceding clause (i), that the Indemnified Party's counsel has determined, in its reasonable opinion, that an irreconcilable conflict of interest make separate representation by the Indemnified Party's counsel advisable. The Indemnified Party will retain the right to employ its own counsel and to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the defense of which has been assumed by an Indemnifying Party pursuant hereto, but such Indemnified Party will bear and will be solely responsible for its own costs and expenses in connection with such participation. 9.4. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS. In the event of any claims for indemnification hereunder, the claimant will advise the party or parties who are required to provide indemnification therefor in writing of the amount and circumstances surrounding such claim. With respect to liquidated claims, if within thirty days the other party has not contested such claim in writing, such other party will pay the full amount thereof within ten days after the expiration of such period. Any amount payable by an Indemnifying Party in respect of indemnification pursuant to this Agreement may be set off and deducted by the Indemnified Party from and against any amounts that may otherwise be or become payable by such Indemnified Party to such Indemnifying Party. To the greatest practicable extent, indemnification payments hereunder by the Stockholders will be made by paying one-third (1/3) in cash and two-thirds (2/3) by return of Consideration Shares. For this purpose, Consideration Shares will be valued at $9.32 per share - 25 - (such amount to be proportionately adjusted to reflect stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, and similar events affecting OSI's Common Stock and occurring after the Closing Date). 9.5. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY. (a) DEDUCTIBLE. No Indemnifying Party will be required to indemnify an Indemnified Party hereunder unless and until such time as the aggregate amount of Damages for which (i) OSI, and if the Merger is not consummated, also Merger Sub, or if the Merger is consummated, also the Surviving Corporation, on the one hand, or (ii) the Stockholders, and if the Merger is not consummated, the Company, on the other, are otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement exceeds $62,500, whereupon such Indemnified Parties will be entitled to indemnification for the amount by which all such Damages exceed $62,500; provided, that Damages in respect of Unlimited Claims will be indemnifiable in full and will not be subject to the limitation set forth in this Section 9.5(a). (b) MAXIMUM LIABILITY. If the Merger is consummated, the maximum liability of any Stockholder for indemnification hereunder will not exceed the value of the Merger Consideration into which such Stockholder's shares of the Company's capital stock are converted in the Merger. For this purpose, Consideration Shares will be valued at $9.32 per share (such amount to be proportionately adjusted to reflect stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, and similar events affecting OSI's Common Stock and occurring after the Closing Date). (c) TIME LIMIT. No Indemnifying Party will be liable for indemnification in respect of any Limited Claim unless a written claim for indemnification is given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto by (i) with respect to a Majority Stockholder, the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, and (ii) with respect to a Minority Stockholder, the second anniversary of the Closing Date. Claims for indemnification in respect of Unlimited Claims will not be subject to any time limits except as may be imposed by applicable law. 10. DEFINITIONS.
