2005 (the "EXECUTION DATE"), is by and among PRIVATE BUSINESS, INC., a Tennessee

corporation ("PBIZ"), CSL ACQUISITION CORPoration ("PBIZ SUB"), a Tennessee

corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of PBiz, CAPTIVA SOLUTIONS, LLC, a

Georgia limited liability company (together with its Subsidiaries, "CAPTIVA"),

and the members of Captiva set forth on the signature pages hereto (the "CAPTIVA

SIGNATORIES" and, together with the other members of Captiva, the "CAPTIVA

MEMBERS"). PBiz and Captiva shall be referred to collectively herein as the

"CONSTITUENT COMPANIES."

 

      WHEREAS, the Captiva Signatories are the beneficial owners of the majority

of membership interests of Captiva and the Captiva Members own all of the

membership interests of Captiva;

 

      WHEREAS, Captiva is engaged in the financial services business (the

"BUSINESS");

 

      WHEREAS, the board of directors of PBiz, the board of managers of Captiva,

and the Captiva Signatories have determined that a business combination between

PBiz Sub and Captiva is advisable and in the best interests of their respective

companies and equity holders and presents an opportunity for their respective

companies to achieve long-term strategic and financial benefits;

 

      WHEREAS, the controlling shareholder of PBiz has entered into a voting

agreement with Captiva to vote in favor of the Merger as of the date hereof;

 

      WHEREAS, the Captiva Members and the board of directors of PBiz Sub have

approved the merger of Captiva with and into PBiz Sub (the "MERGER"), upon the

terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, whereby the issued and

outstanding membership interests of Captiva (the "CAPTIVA UNITS"), will be

converted into the right to receive such share of the Merger Consideration (as

defined below) as provided in this Agreement.

 

      WHEREAS, PBiz, PBiz Sub, Captiva, and the Captiva Signatories desire to

make certain representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the

Merger and also to prescribe various conditions to the Merger.

 

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the representations,

warranties and agreements herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

in accordance with the Tennessee Business Corporation Act (the "TBCA") and the

Georgia Limited Liability Company Act (the "GLLCA"), Captiva shall be merged

with and into PBiz Sub at the

 

 

<PAGE>

 

Effective Time. Following the Merger, the separate corporate existence of

Captiva shall cease and PBiz Sub shall continue as the surviving corporation

(the "SURVIVING CORPORATION") and shall succeed to and assume all the rights and

obligations of Captiva in accordance with the TBCA and the GLLCA.

 

      1.2    EFFECTIVE TIME. As soon as practicable following the satisfaction or

waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI, the Surviving Corporation

shall file the articles of merger required by the TBCA and the GLLCA (the

"ARTICLES OF MERGER") with respect to the Merger and other appropriate documents

executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the TBCA and the GLLCA.

The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Articles of Merger are

duly filed with the Tennessee and Georgia Secretaries of State, or at such other

time as Captiva and PBiz shall agree should be specified in the Articles of

Merger (such time being the "EFFECTIVE TIME"). The closing of the Merger (the

"CLOSING") shall take place at the offices of PBiz's counsel within two (2)

business days following the date of the meeting of PBiz's shareholders to

approve the Merger (the "PBIZ SHAREHOLDERS MEETING"), or, if any of the

conditions set forth in Article VI have not been satisfied, then as soon as

practicable thereafter, or on such other date as PBiz and Captiva shall agree

(the "CLOSING DATE").

 

      1.3    EFFECTS OF THE MERGER. The Merger shall have the effects set forth

in the TBCA and the GLLCA. If at any time after the Effective Time, the

Surviving Corporation shall consider or be advised that any further assignments

or assurances in law or otherwise are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or

confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Surviving Corporation, all rights, title

and interests in all real estate and other property and all privileges, powers

and franchises of Captiva, the Surviving Corporation and its proper officers and

directors, in the name and on behalf of Captiva, shall execute and deliver all

such proper deeds, assignments and assurances in law and do all things necessary

and proper to vest, perfect or confirm title to such property or rights in the

Surviving Corporation and otherwise to carry out the purpose and intent of this

Agreement, and the proper officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation

are fully authorized in the name of PBiz Sub to take any and all such action.

 

      1.4    CHARTER AND BYLAWS.

 

            (a)    The Charter of PBiz Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the

Effective Time and as set forth in Exhibit 1.4(a) hereto, shall be the Charter

of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided

therein or by applicable law.

 

            (b)    The bylaws of PBiz Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the

Effective Time and as set forth in Exhibit 1.4(b) hereto, shall be the Bylaws of

therein or by applicable law.

                                   ARTICLE II

 

                     EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK

                     AND UNITS OF THE CONSTITUENT COMPANIES

 

      2.1    EFFECT ON CAPITAL SECURITIES. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of

the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of PBiz, PBiz Sub,

Captiva or the Captiva Members:

 

            (a)    Conversion of Securities.

 

                  (i)    Each share of common stock, no par value, of PBiz Sub

issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue

without change and shall represent validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable

shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

 

                  (ii)   Each Captiva Unit issued and outstanding immediately

prior to the Effective Time, shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any

action on the part of the holder thereof, automatically be canceled and

extinguished and converted into the right to receive a portion of the Merger

Consideration (as defined below) as specified on Section 2.1(a)(ii) of the

Captiva Disclosure Schedule (as defined below).

 

            (b)    Merger Consideration. The merger consideration payable by PBiz

to the Captiva Members for their Captiva Units and in consideration for the

agreements contained herein, will be Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000), payable

in cash and PBiz Common Stock (as defined below) and subject to adjustment as

described in Section 2.4, plus the Earnout Payment (as defined below)

(collectively referred to as the "MERGER CONSIDERATION"). The Merger

Consideration shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in this Agreement and

shall be payable to the Captiva Members in the following manner:

 

                  (i)    Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000), subject to adjustment

as described in Section 2.4, in immediately available funds by wire transfer at

Closing; and

 

                  (ii)   Seven Hundred and Fifty-Seven Thousand, Five Hundred and

Seventy-Six (757,576) shares (the "CLOSING DATE PBIZ SHARES") of PBiz common

stock, no par value (the "PBIZ COMMON STOCK"), payable at Closing; and

 

                  (iii) that number of shares of PBiz Common Stock (the "EARNOUT

PAYMENT") having an aggregate market value equal to ten percent (10%) of the

PBiz Acquired Revenues (as defined below). The term "PBIZ ACQUIRED REVENUES"

shall equal: (x) the average monthly revenue earned by the Acquired Businesses

(as defined below) for the months between: (A) the later to occur of January 1,

2006 and the date each such Acquired Business was acquired by PBiz; and (B)

December 31, 2006; multiplied by (y) twelve (12); provided that in no event

shall the PBiz Acquired Revenues exceed $16.0 million. The term "ACQUIRED

BUSINESS" shall mean any business entity (whether acquired through an

acquisition of equity or assets) that is acquired by PBiz (or any of its

Subsidiaries) during the twelve (12) month period following

 

 

 

                                       3

<PAGE>

 

Closing. In addition to the foregoing, Acquired Business shall include the

businesses described in Exhibit 2.1(b)(iii) attached hereto. The Earnout Payment

shall be calculated upon completion of the audit of the consolidated financial

statements of PBiz for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006 and, to the

extent earned, shall be delivered to the Captiva Members no later than the fifth

(5th) business day following the day on which PBiz files with the SEC (as

defined below) its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December

31, 2006. The Earnout Payment shall be based upon the average closing price per

share of the PBiz Common Stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market for the ten (10)

consecutive trading days ending two (2) trading days prior to the Execution

Date. G. Lynn Boggs is hereby duly appointed to act as the representative of the

Captiva Members with respect to the Earnout Payment (the "CAPTIVA DESIGNEE") and

has full power and authority to amend, modify or waive any provision of this

Agreement related to the Earnout and to take any and all other actions he deems

necessary or appropriate in that regard, all without further consent or

direction from, or notice to, the Captiva Members or any other party. The

Earnout Payment shall be subject to the following restrictions (and shall bear

restrictive legends corresponding thereto):

 

                        (A)    with respect to one-third (1/3) of the Earnout

Payment, the Captiva Members shall not be restricted from the sale or transfer

of such shares except pursuant to restrictions on transfer pursuant to the

Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), and the Securities

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "EXCHANGE ACT");

 

                        (B)    with respect to one-third (1/3) of the Earnout

Payment, the Captiva Members shall not sell, give, encumber, pledge,

hypothecate, convey, assign or otherwise transfer, whether outright or as

security, inter vivos or testamentary, with or without consideration, voluntary

or involuntary, all or any part of any right, title or interest (including but

not limited to voting rights, by voting trust, grant of proxy or otherwise) in

or to any of such shares for a period of twelve (12) months following the

issuance of such shares, in addition to any restrictions on transfer pursuant to

the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

 

                        (C)    with respect to the remaining one-third (1/3) of

the Earnout Payment, the Captiva Members shall not sell, give, encumber, pledge,

hypothecate, convey, assign or otherwise transfer, whether outright or as

security, inter vivos or testamentary, with or without consideration, voluntary

or involuntary, all or any part of any right, title or interest (including but

not limited to voting rights, by voting trust, grant of proxy or otherwise) in

or to any of such shares for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the

issuance of such shares, in addition to any restrictions on transfer pursuant to

the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

 

            (c)    No Fractional PBiz Common Shares. No fractional shares of PBiz

Common Stock shall be issued in the Merger. All fractional shares of PBiz Common

Stock that a Captiva Member would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result

of the Merger shall be rounded up to the next whole share.

 

      2.2    EXCHANGE OF UNITS. The procedures for exchanging Captiva Units for

the Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger are as follows:

 

 

 

                                       4

<PAGE>

 

            (a)    Exchange Agent. PBiz shall act as exchange agent for the

purpose of effectuating the exchange of the Merger Consideration for the Captiva

Units that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding

Captiva Units, which were converted into the right to receive the Merger

Consideration.

 

            (b)    Exchange Procedures. At the Effective Time, PBiz shall deliver

the Merger Consideration (other than the Earnout Payment) to the Captiva Members

for exchange in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. At

the Effective Time, upon surrender to PBiz by each Captiva Member of all of the

Captiva Units owned by such Captiva Member, each Captiva Member shall be

entitled to immediately receive in exchange therefor the portion of the Merger

Consideration to which such Captiva Member is entitled pursuant to this

Agreement.

 

            (c)    No Further Ownership Rights in the Captiva Units. All Merger

Consideration paid upon surrender of the Captiva Units in accordance with the

terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all

rights pertaining to the Captiva Units represented thereby (other than the

Earnout Payment).

 

      2.3    CAPTIVA OPTIONS. Captiva shall cause all outstanding options,

warrants and rights to acquire Captiva Units, each of which is identified on

Section 3.1(b) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule (the "CAPTIVA OPTIONS"), to be

exercised immediately prior to the Effective Time. The holders of the Captiva

Options (each a "CAPTIVA OPTION HOLDER") that exercise such Captiva Options

shall receive Captiva Units immediately prior to the Effective Time pursuant to

the terms of such Captiva Options. Any Captiva Options that are not exercised

prior to the Effective Time shall be terminated without consideration to such

Captiva Option Holder. The cashless exercise of the Captiva Options shall occur

immediately prior to Closing and will not affect the allocation of the Merger

Consideration, as Schedule 2.1(a)(ii) will reflect that exercise.

 

      2.4    MERGER CONSIDERATION ADJUSTMENTS.

 

            (a)    Not later than five (5) business days prior to the Closing

Date, Captiva shall deliver to PBiz the most recently prepared month-end balance

sheet of Captiva and a good faith estimate (the "CLOSING ESTIMATE") of the

amounts of the following items as of the Closing Date: (i) the long-term debt of

Captiva on the Closing Date (the "LONG-TERM DEBT"); (ii) the capital leases of

Captiva on the Closing Date (the "CAPITAL LEASES"); and (iii) the aggregate

amount of trade payables and other short-term debt of Captiva on the Closing

Date (the "TRADE PAYABLES"), which aggregate amount of trade payables shall not

include (x) the legal fees incurred by Captiva in connection with the

Acquisition Targets prior to Closing described in Section 2.4(d) below, and (y)

Transaction-related expenses, including legal fees (which Transaction-related

expenses shall be paid by Captiva at or before Closing).

 

            (b)    At Closing, PBiz will pay in full the Long-Term Debt and the

Capital Leases, and the cash portion of the Merger Consideration shall be

reduced at Closing by the paid amounts.

 

 

 

                                       5

<PAGE>

 

            (c)    In the event the amount of the Trade Payables shown on the

Closing Estimate exceeds Four Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($475,000)

(the "TARGET TRADE PAYABLES"), then the cash portion of the Merger Consideration

shall be reduced at Closing by the difference between the Trade Payables shown

on the Closing Estimate and the Target Trade Payables.

 

            (d)    PBiz shall assume and pay at Closing up to One Hundred

Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in legal fees accrued by Captiva for work on or

after September 1, 2005 through the Closing Date in connection with its pursuit

of the Acquisition Targets; such amount shall not reduce the cash portion of the

Merger Consideration. In the event the legal fees of Captiva incurred between

September 1, 2005 and the Closing Date in connection with its pursuit of the

Acquisition Targets exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), then PBiz

shall assume and pay at Closing the amount of such excess, and the cash portion

of the Merger Consideration shall be reduced by the amount of such excess.

 

            (e)    Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, PBiz will

prepare and deliver to the Captiva Designee a balance sheet setting forth the

actual Long-Term Debt, Capital Leases, and Trade Payables of Captiva as of the

Closing Date (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet"). If the Captiva Designee has any

objections to the Closing Date Balance Sheet, he shall notify PBiz in writing

within ten (10) days of receipt of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and deliver a

detailed written statement describing his objections. PBiz and the Captiva

Designee shall use their reasonable efforts to resolve any such objections

themselves. If PBiz and Captiva Designee cannot resolve any such objections

within thirty (30) days after PBiz receives Captiva Designee's statement of

objections, such dispute shall be referred to a mutually acceptable nationally

recognized accounting firm that has not performed services for PBiz or Captiva

within the preceding three years for conclusive and binding resolution. PBiz and

the Captiva Members shall each pay one-half of the fees and expenses of such

accounting firm.

 

            (f)   

 

                  (i)    If the sum of Long-Term Debt, Capital Leases, and Trade

Payables shown on the Closing Date Balance Sheet is less than the Closing

Estimate, PBiz will pay the Captiva Members, pro rata according to the Captiva

Units held by each such Captiva Member at Closing, in cash an amount equal to

the amount by which the sum of such items as shown on the Closing Date Balance

Sheet is less than the Closing Estimate. PBiz shall make such payments to the

Captiva Members on a date not later than five (5) business days after the

earlier to occur of (A) the date that the Captiva Designee notifies PBiz that he

accepts the Closing Date Balance Sheet, (B) the expiration of the ten (10)

business day period specified in Section 2.4(e) above without objection by the

Captiva Designee, (C) the date that PBiz and the Captiva Designee finally

resolve any objections by the Captiva Designee, or (D) the conclusive and

binding resolution of the matter by a nationally recognized accounting firm as

provided in Section 2.4(e) above.

 

                  (ii)   If the sum of Long-Term Debt, Capital Leases, and Trade

Payables shown on the Closing Date Balance Sheet exceeds the Closing Estimate,

the Captiva Members will pay PBiz in cash an amount equal to the amount by which

the sum of such items as shown

 

 

 

                                        6

<PAGE>

 

on the Closing Date Balance Sheet exceeds the Closing Estimate. The Captiva

Members shall make such payments to PBiz, pro rata according to the Captiva

Units held by each such Captiva Member at Closing, on a date not later than ten

(10) business days after the earlier to occur of (A) the date that the Captiva

Designee notifies PBiz that he accepts the Closing Date Balance Sheet, (B) the

expiration of the ten (10) business day period specified in Section 2.4(e) above

without objection by the Captiva Designee, (C) the date that PBiz and the

Captiva Designee finally resolve any objections by the Captiva Designee, or (D)

the conclusive and binding resolution of the matter by a nationally recognized

accounting firm as provided in Section 2.4(e) above.

 

                                  ARTICLE III

jointly), represents and warrants to PBiz, as of the date hereof and as of the

Closing Date, subject to any matters disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule of

Captiva provided to PBiz on the date hereof (the "CAPTIVA DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE"),

and except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement:

 

            (a)    Organization; Standing and Power. Captiva is a limited

liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under

the laws of the State of Georgia and has the requisite limited liability power

and authority to carry on its business as now being conducted. Captiva is duly

qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which

the nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties makes

such qualification necessary, other than in such jurisdictions where the failure

to be so qualified to do business or in good standing (individually or in the

aggregate) would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the

aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Captiva.

 

            (b)    Capital Structure. The Captiva Members are the record and

beneficial owners of all of the membership interests in Captiva. The issued and

outstanding membership interests of Captiva are as set forth in Section 3.1(b)

of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule. Except as set forth in Section 3.1(b) of the

Captiva Disclosure Schedule, there are no outstanding or authorized rights,

warrants, options, subscriptions, restricted units, convertible debt

instruments, option plans, agreements or commitments of any character giving any

Person any right to require Captiva to sell or issue any membership interests or

other securities nor does Captiva have any obligation of any nature to

repurchase any outstanding capital stock or other securities. All outstanding

membership interests of Captiva are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable

and not subject to preemptive rights, and were not issued in violation of the

Securities Act, any preemptive rights or other preferential rights of

subscription or purchase. Captiva does not own, directly or indirectly, any

capital stock or other ownership interest in any Person.

 

            (c)    Authority; Non-Contravention. Captiva has the requisite

limited liability company power and authority to enter into this Agreement and

to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery

of this Agreement by Captiva and the consummation by Captiva of the transactions

<PAGE>

 

all necessary limited liability company action on the part of Captiva. This

Agreement and other agreements and documents executed by Captiva in connection

herewith have been duly and validly executed and delivered by Captiva and

constitute valid and binding obligations of Captiva, enforceable against Captiva

in accordance with their respective terms, except that except that (i) such

enforcement may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium

or other similar laws or judicial decisions now or hereafter in effect relating

to creditors' rights generally, (ii) the remedy of specific performance and

injunctive relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of

the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought, and (iii) the

enforceability of any indemnification provision contained herein may be limited

by applicable federal or state securities laws. No consent, approval, order or

authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any governmental

entity or other Person is required by or with respect to Captiva in connection

with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Captiva or the consummation

by Captiva of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for the filing of the

Articles of Merger in the State of Georgia and appropriate documents with the

            (d)    Captiva Financial Statements; Books and Records.

 

                   (i)    Captiva has delivered to PBiz: (a) an audited

consolidated balance sheet of Total Bank Technology, LLC as at December 31,

2004, and the related audited consolidated statement of income, changes in

stockholders' equity, and cash flow for the fiscal year then ended (including

the notes thereto), together with the report thereon of Stockman, Kast, Ryan Co

LLP, independent certified public accountants (the "AUDITED FINANCIAL

STATEMENTS"), and (b) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Captiva as at

September 30, 2005 and the related pro forma unaudited consolidated statements

of income, changes in member's equity, and cash flow for the nine months then

ended, including the activities of Total Bank Technology, LLC from January 1,

2005 and the activities of Captiva from April 1, 2005 (the "INTERIM FINANCIAL

STATEMENTS" which, together with the Audited Financial Statements shall be

referred to as the "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS"). The Financial Statements have been

prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")

and fairly present the financial condition and the results of operations,

changes in stockholders'/members' equity, and cash flow of Captiva as at the

respective dates of and for the periods referred to in the Financial Statements,

subject, in the case of the Interim Financial Statements, to (x) normal

recurring year-end adjustments (the effect of which will not, individually or in

the aggregate, be materially adverse), (y) the absence of notes (that, if

presented, would not differ materially from those included in the consolidated

audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 other than to

reflect the acquisition by Captiva of the assets of Total Bank Technology, LLC

and related matters), and (z) the allocation of the purchase price of Total Bank

Technology, LLC and the related amortization, which has not been based on a

third party valuation and is subject to review or change based on such a review.

The Financial Statements reflect the consistent application of such accounting

principles throughout the periods involved. No financial statements of any

Person other than Captiva are required by GAAP to be included in the

consolidated financial statements of Captiva.

and other records of Captiva, all of which have been made available to PBiz, are

complete and correct in all material respects and have been maintained in

accordance with sound business practices, including the maintenance of an

adequate system of internal controls and procedures. Captiva maintains accurate

books and records reflecting its assets and liabilities and maintains proper and

adequate internal accounting controls which provide assurance that: (i)

transactions are executed with management's authorization, (ii) transactions are

recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the consolidated financial

statements of Captiva and to maintain accountability for Captiva's consolidated

assets, (iii) access to Captiva assets is permitted only in accordance with

management's authorization; (iv) the reporting of Captiva's assets is compared

with existing assets at regular intervals; and (v) accounts, notes and other

receivables and inventory are recorded accurately, and proper and adequate

procedures are implemented to effect the collection thereof on a current and

timely basis. The minute books of Captiva contain accurate and complete records

of all meetings held of, and limited liability company action taken by, the

members and the board of managers of Captiva, and no formal meeting of any such

members or board of managers has been held for which minutes have not been

prepared and are not contained in such minute books. The board of managers of

Captiva has not formed any committees. At the Closing, all of those books and

records will be in the possession of Captiva.

      Captiva has made available to PBiz a true and complete copy of each

its terms, subject only to bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other

laws affecting creditors' rights generally and general principles of equity

(whether applied in an action at law or in equity), provided that no

representation or warranty is made herein with respect to the enforceability of

agreements restricting competition or the solicitation of customers or

employees. Captiva and, to the Actual Knowledge of Captiva and the Captiva

obligations required to be performed by them under the Captiva Material

Contracts, and Captiva is not in breach or default thereunder in any material

respect. Except as shown on Section 3.1(e) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule,

the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not

conflict with or result in any breach of or constitute a default of Captiva

under any Captiva Material Contract (assuming the repayment at Closing of

certain Captiva obligations as provided for elsewhere in this Agreement).

 

            (f)    Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Except as shown on

Section 3.1(f) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule, since June 1, 2005, the date

to any of the equity interests in Captiva; (iii) (A) any granting by Captiva to

any executive officer of Captiva of any increase in compensation, (B) any

granting by Captiva to any such executive officer of any increase in severance

on August 5, 2005); (v) any repurchase, redemption or other acquisition by

Captiva of any outstanding equity securities of, or other ownership interests

in, Captiva; (vi) any material damage, destruction or other property loss,

whether or not covered by insurance; or (vii) any change in accounting methods,

principles or practices by Captiva materially affecting its assets, liabilities

or business.

                        (A)    that has been commenced by or against Captiva or

(an "ORDER") to which Captiva, or any of the assets owned or used by Captiva, is

subject;

 

                        (B)    none of the Captiva Signatories is subject to any

Order that relates to the business of, or any of the assets owned or used by,

Captiva; and

 

                         (C)    neither Captiva nor to the Actual Knowledge of

with respect to each of the Captiva Signatories), no officer, manager, agent, or

employee of Captiva is subject to any Order that prohibits such officer,

manager, agent, or employee from engaging in or continuing any conduct,

activity, or practice relating to the business of Captiva.

 

                        (D)    Captiva is, and at all times has been, in full

compliance with all of the terms and requirements of each Order to which it, or

any of the assets owned or used by it, is or has been subject;

 

                        (E)    no event has occurred or circumstance exists that

may constitute or result in (with or without notice or lapse of time) a

violation of or failure to comply with any term or requirement of any Order to

which Captiva, or any of the assets owned or used by Captiva, is subject; and

 

 

 

                                       11

<PAGE>

 

                         (F)    Captiva has not received any notice or other

communication from any governmental body or any other Person regarding any

actual, alleged, possible, or potential violation of, or failure to comply with,

any term or requirement of any Order to which Captiva, or any of the assets

owned or used by Captiva, is or has been subject.

 

            (h)    Tax Matters.

 

                  (i)    As used herein, "TAX" or "TAXES" means any federal,

state, local, or foreign income, gross receipts, license, payroll, employment,

excise, severance, stamp, occupation, premium, windfall profits, environmental

(including taxes under section 59A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as

amended (the "CODE")), customs duties, capital stock, franchise, profits,

withholding, social security (or similar), unemployment, disability, real

property, personal property, sales, use, transfer, registration, value added,

alternative or add-on minimum, estimated, or other tax of any kind whatsoever,

whether computed on a separate or consolidated, unitary or combined basis or in

any other manner, including any interest, penalty, or addition thereto, whether

disputed or not and including any obligation to indemnify or otherwise assume or

succeed to the Tax liability of any other person. "TAX RETURN" means any return,

declaration, report, claim for refund, or information return or statement

relating to Taxes, including any schedule or attachment thereto, and including

any amendment thereof.

 

                  (ii)   Captiva has timely filed all Tax Returns that it was

required to file. All such Tax Returns were correct and complete in all respects

and were prepared in substantial compliance with all applicable laws and

regulations. All Taxes owed by Captiva (whether or not shown or required to be

shown on any Tax Return) have been paid. Captiva currently is not the

beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return. No

claim has ever been made by an authority in a jurisdiction where Captiva does

not file Tax Returns that Captiva is or may be subject to taxation by that

jurisdiction. There are no liens on any of the assets of Captiva that arose in

connection with any failure (or alleged failure) to pay any Tax.

 

                  (iii) Captiva has withheld and paid all Taxes required to have

been withheld and paid in connection with any amounts paid or owing to any

employee, independent contractor, creditor, member, or other third party, and

all Forms W-2 and 1099 required with respect thereto have been properly

completed and timely filed.

lists all federal, state, local, and foreign income Tax Returns filed with

respect to Captiva for all periods, (b) indicates those Tax Returns that have

been audited, and (c) indicates those Tax Returns that currently are the subject

                                       12

<PAGE>

 

                  (vi)   Captiva has not waived any statute of limitations in

respect of Taxes or agreed to any extension of time with respect to a Tax

assessment or deficiency.

 

                  (vii) The unpaid Taxes of Captiva (a) did not, as of the most

recent fiscal month end, exceed the reserve for Tax liability (rather than any

reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between

book and Tax income) set forth on the face of the balance sheet (rather than in

any notes thereto) contained in the most recent Interim Financial Statements and

(b) do not exceed that reserve as adjusted for the passage of time through the

Closing Date in accordance with the past custom and practice of Captiva in

filing its Tax Returns.

 

                  (viii) Captiva is not a party to an agreement, contract,

arrangement or plan that has resulted in or could result in, separately or in

the aggregate, an obligation to make a payment that is not deductible under Code

sections 280G or 162(m) or any corresponding provision of state, local or

foreign law. Captiva has disclosed on its federal income Tax Returns all

positions taken therein that could give rise to a substantial understatement of

federal income Tax within the meaning of Code section 6662. Captiva has not been

a United States real property holding corporation within the meaning of Code

section 897(c)(2) during the applicable period specified in Code section

897(c)(1)(A)(ii). Captiva is not a party to any Tax allocation or sharing

agreement. Captiva (A) has not been a member of an affiliated group filing a

consolidated federal income Tax Return and (B) has no liability for the Taxes of

any person under United States Treasury Regulation section 1.1502-6 (or any

similar provision of state, local, or foreign law), as a transferee or

successor, by contract, or otherwise.

 

            (i)    Compliance with Laws. Captiva holds all permits, licenses,

variances, exemptions, orders, franchises and approvals of all governmental

entities (the "CAPTIVA PERMITS") that are required for the conduct of its

business as presently conducted, except where the failure to obtain and hold the

same would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Captiva is in

compliance in all material respects with the terms of the Captiva Permits.

Captiva has not materially violated or materially failed to comply with, nor has

it received any written notice of any alleged material violation of or material

failure to comply with, any statute, law, ordinance, regulation, rule, permit or

order of any governmental entity, any arbitration award or any judgment, decree

or order of any court or other governmental entity, applicable to Captiva or its

business, assets or operations.

 

            (j)    Intellectual Property and Software.

 

                  (i)    Section 3.1(j) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule

accurately identifies the following information:

 

                        (A)    Section 3.1(j)(i)(A) of the Captiva Disclosure

distribution of, the products or services of Captiva and (z) is generally

available on standard terms for less than $10,000), and (2) the corresponding

Contract or Contracts pursuant to which such Intellectual Property Rights or

Intellectual Property is licensed to Captiva.

 

                        (D)    Section 3.1(j)(i)(D) of the Captiva Disclosure

Schedule accurately identifies each Contract pursuant to which any Person has

been granted any license under, or otherwise has received or acquired any right

(whether or not currently exercisable) or interest in, any Captiva IP. Captiva

is not bound by, and no Captiva IP is subject to, any Contract containing any

covenant or other provision that in any way limits or restricts the ability of

Captiva to use, exploit, assert, or enforce any Captiva IP anywhere in the

world. Captiva has no distributor or reseller agreements.

 

                  (ii)   Except as described in Section 3.1(j)(ii) of the

            Captiva Disclosure Schedule, Captiva exclusively owns all right,

            title, and interest to and in the Captiva IP (other than

            Intellectual Property Rights licensed to Captiva, as identified in

            Section 3.1(j)(i)(C) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule) free and

            clear of any encumbrances (other than licenses granted pursuant to

            the Contracts listed in Section 3.1(j)(i)(D) of the Captiva

            Disclosure Schedule). Without limiting the generality of the

            foregoing:

the Captiva IP acting within the scope of his or her employment or (ii) has

signed a valid, enforceable agreement containing an effective "work for hire"

provision or an assignment of Intellectual Property Rights to Captiva and

confidentiality provisions protecting the Captiva IP. Except as set forth in

Section 3.1(j)(ii) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule, no current or former

member, officer, director, or employee of Captiva or the predecessor owners of

the Captiva IP has any claim, right (whether or not currently exercisable) or

interest to or in any accounting right, royalty right, or other economic right

or interest in Captiva's current use of the Captiva IP.

 

                        (B)    To the Knowledge of Captiva and the Captiva

Signatories, no funding, facilities or personnel of any governmental body were

used, directly or indirectly, to develop or create, in whole or in part, any

Captiva IP.

 

                         (C)    Captiva owns or otherwise has license to all

Intellectual Property and/or Intellectual Property Rights used to conduct the

                  (iii) All Captiva IP is enforceable; provided, however, that

            limiting the generality of the foregoing:

 

                        (A)    Except as set forth on Section 3.1(j)(ii) of the

Captiva Disclosure Schedule, neither Captiva nor any predecessor owners of the

Captiva IP has assigned or otherwise transferred ownership of, or agreed to

assign or otherwise transfer ownership of, any Captiva IP to any other Person.

 

                        (B)    To the Knowledge of Captiva and the Captiva

Signatories, there is no basis for a claim that any Captiva IP is invalid or

unenforceable.

 

                  (iv)   To the Knowledge of Captiva and the Captiva Signatories,

no Person has infringed, misappropriated, or otherwise violated, and no Person

is currently infringing, misappropriating, or otherwise violating, any Captiva

IP. Section 3.1(j)(iv) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule accurately identifies

(and Captiva has provided to PBiz a complete and accurate copy of) each letter

or other written or electronic communication or correspondence that has been

sent or otherwise delivered by or to Captiva or any representative of any of

Captiva regarding any actual, alleged, or suspected infringement or

misappropriation of any Captiva IP, and provides a brief description of the

current status of the matter referred to in such letter, communication or

correspondence.

 

                  (v)    Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this

Agreement nor the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this

Agreement will, with or without notice or the lapse of time, result in or give

any other Person the right or option to cause or declare (i) a loss of, or

encumbrance on, any Captiva IP, (ii) a breach of any Contract listed or required

to be listed in Section 3.1(j) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule, (iii) the

release, disclosure or delivery of any Captiva IP by or to any escrow agent or

other Person or (iv) the grant, assignment or transfer to any other Person of

any license or other right or interest under, to or in any of the Captiva IP.

 

                   (vi)   The Captiva IP does not infringe (directly,

contributorily, by inducement or otherwise), misappropriate or otherwise violate

any Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property Right of any other Person

that is not a patent right or a trademark right. To the Actual Knowledge of

Captiva and the Captiva Signatories, the Captiva IP does not infringe (directly,

contributorily, by inducement or otherwise), misappropriate or otherwise violate

any patent right or trademark right of any other Person. Without limiting the

generality of the foregoing:

 

                        (A)    No infringement, misappropriation or similar claim

or Proceeding is pending or, to the Knowledge of Captiva and the Captiva

Signatories, has been threatened against Captiva or against any other Person who

may be entitled to be indemnified, defended, held harmless or reimbursed by

Captiva with respect to such claim or Proceeding. Except as set forth in any

Contract listed in Section 3.1(j)(i)(D) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule,

Captiva is not bound by any Contract to indemnify, defend, hold harmless or

reimburse any other Person with respect to any intellectual property

infringement,

obligated to discharge or otherwise take responsibility for, any existing or

potential liability or another Person for infringement, misappropriation or

violation of any Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property Right.

 

                        (B)    To the Knowledge of Captiva and the Captiva

Signatories no claim or proceeding involving any Intellectual Property or

Intellectual Property Right licensed to Captiva and required to be listed in

Section 3.1(j) of the Captiva Disclosure Schedule is pending or has been

threatened, except for any such claim or Proceeding that, if adversely

determined, would not adversely affect (1) the use or exploitation of such

Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property Right by Captiva or (2) the

distribution or sale of any product or service being developed, offered,

distributed or sold by Captiva.

such Captiva Software to the extent that any customer of Captiva would be

prevented from using each feature and function of the Captiva Software in the

ordinary course of its business or (2) except as specified in the complete and
