NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I. PURCHASE AND SALE OF ASSETS.
Section 1.1. Purchase and Sale of Assets. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, conveys, and delivers to Buyer, and Buyer hereby purchases and acquires from Seller, all of the Acquired Assets, free and clear of all Liens. “Acquired Assets” means all right, title, and interest in and to all of the Seller’s SMS/MMS text messaging customer accounts, used in the operation of the Business, but specifically excluding the Excluded Assets, including the following:
(a) The accounts, contracts, customer records and agreements to which Seller is a party relating to the Business, including those listed on Exhibit A. and all associated rights of Seller (the “Customer Accounts”). Exhibit A. shall list the name of each Customer Account, the contact person for each account and related contact details, whether a contract exists for said Customer Account and whether, as of the Closing Date, Seller has received a prepayment from that customer.
Section 1.2. Excluded Assets. “Excluded Assets” means all other assets of Seller not used or useful in the operation of the Business, including any assets related to or used in or necessary for the Excluded Business.
Section 1.3. Assumption of Liabilities. On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer agrees to assume and become responsible for the Assumed Liabilities as of the Closing. Buyer shall not assume or have any responsibility with respect to any Liability of Seller that is not an Assumed Liability. “Assumed Liabilities” means all obligations of Seller arising from and after Closing under the Contracts listed on Exhibit A.
Section 1.4. Excluded Liabilities.

Section 1.5. Purchase Price. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Buyer will assume the Assumed Liabilities and will pay to Sellers an amount equal to the following (collectively, the “Purchase Price”):
For a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date (the “Measurement Period”), Buyer shall pay Seller two (2) times the Gross Profit earned from each Customer Account (collectively, the “Earn-out Payment”), in accordance with Section 1.7. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Gross Profit” is defined as the Gross Revenues collected by Buyer from each Customer Account, less:
(i) | $0.001 for each SMS purchased by that customer; and |
(ii) | $.01234 for each MMS purchased by that customer; and |
(iii) | All applicable surcharges. |
In the event that a customer shall have prepaid their Customer Account to Seller prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall apply such pre-payment to that Customers Account and such pre-payment so applied shall be a further reduction in the Earn-out Payment owing to Seller.
Section 1.6 Pre-Payment of the Purchase Price. At Closing, Buyer will pay Seller $303,000 in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated in writing by Seller as a pre-payment of the Earnout Payments (the “Earnout Pre-Payment”).
Section 1.7. Earn-out Payment. Semi-annually, commencing on the date which is six (6) months from the Closing Date, and continuing on the same date in the 12th, 18th and 24th month following the Closing, Buyer shall pay Seller the Earn-out Payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated in writing by Seller. Buyer shall apply, as a reduction, the Earnout Pre-Payment against each Earnout Payment due Seller until the Earnout Pre-Payment is exhausted. If, at the end of the Measurement Period, any amount of the Earnout Pre-Payment has not been applied to Earnout Payments made to the Seller, Seller shall refund the excess Earnout Pre-Payment to Buyer within thirty (30) days of the end of the Measurement Period. Buyer agrees and acknowledges that it will (i) not take or omit to take any action with the primary purpose of decreasing Gross Profit during the Measurement Period (or any other period which would impact the Gross Profit during the Measurement Period), and (ii) not, directly or indirectly, take any action or omit to take any action with the primary purpose of avoiding or reducing the Earn-Out Payment payable to Seller.
Section 1.8. Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place on the date hereof by the remote exchange of electronic copies of documents and signatures, or at another date, time or place, as the parties may mutually agree.

Section 4.1. Non-Solicitation.
(a) During the period of twenty-four months following the Closing (the “Restricted Period”), Seller shall not, directly or indirectly solicit the trade of, or trade with, any customer whose Customer Account is a part of the Acquired Assets such that the customer reduces the amount of business that it does (or, but for that solicitation, would do) with Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the Article IV shall prohibit Seller from operating the Excluded Business.
(b) If Seller shall be in breach of subsection (a) above, then the time period set forth in that subsection shall, as it relates to the breaching party, be extended by the length of time during which the breaching party is in breach of any of those provisions.
(c) Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Section 4.1. are not complied with in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that Buyer shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Section 4.1. and shall have the right to specifically enforce Section 4.1. and its terms and provisions against Seller in addition to any other remedy to which Buyer may be entitled under this Agreement, at Law or in equity.
(d) It is the intent of the parties that each provision of this Section 4.1. be adjudicated valid and enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the Laws and public policies of each jurisdiction in which adjudication of the validity or enforcement of Section 4.1. is sought. In furtherance of the foregoing, each provision of Section 4.1. shall be severable from each other provision, and any provision of Section 4.1. that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be subject to the following: (i) if the prohibited or unenforceable provision is contrary to or conflicts with any requirement of any statute, rule or regulation in effect in the jurisdiction, then the requirement shall be incorporated into, or substituted for, the prohibited or unenforceable provision to the minimum extent necessary to make the provision valid or enforceable; (ii) the Governmental Authority or arbitrator considering the matter is authorized to (or, if that Governmental Authority or arbitrator is unwilling or fails to do so, then the parties shall) amend the unenforceable provision to the minimum extent necessary to make the provision valid or enforceable, and the parties consent to the entry of an order amending the provision to that extent for that purpose; and (iii) if any unenforceable provision cannot be or is not reformed and made valid or enforceable under this Section 4.1., then the prohibited or unenforceable provision shall be ineffective in that jurisdiction to the minimum extent necessary to make the remainder of Section 4.1. valid or enforceable in that jurisdiction. Any application of the foregoing provisions to any provision of Section 4.1. shall not (x) affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of Section 4.1. or (y) prevent the prohibited or unenforceable provision from being adjudicated valid or enforced as written in any other jurisdiction.

Section 4.4. Customer and Other Business Relationships. No later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall communicate with all of its Customer Accounts informing each such customer that Seller will no longer be in the Business as of December 31, 2024, and further advising each such customer of the sale of the Acquired Assets hereby. Seller will use its commercially reasonable efforts and cooperate with Buyer in Buyer’s efforts to continue and maintain for the benefit of Buyer those business relationships of Seller relating to the Customer Accounts and Business existing prior to the Closing. Seller will collect the Customer Account accounts receivable in a manner that is not detrimental to any of such relationships.
