otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the party

the purposes of this Agreement unless the failure to give such
notice results in material prejudice to the other party.
4.10
Further Action . Upon the terms and subject to the
conditions hereof, each of the parties hereto shall use all
commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all

information regarding XFM, its business, its officers, directors

be delivered such documents or certificates as may be necessary, in
the reasonable opinion of counsel for either of the parties, to

any time the parties or any of their respective successors or
assigns shall determine that any further conveyance, assignment or
other document or any further action is necessary desirable to
further effectuate the transactions set forth herein or
contemplated hereby, the parties and their officers, directors and
agents shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and
delivered, all such documents as may be reasonably required to
effectuate such transactions.
SECTION 5: CONVERSION OR CANCELLATION OF SHARES
5.1
Conversion or Cancellation of Shares . At the Effective

capital stock of XML, as follows:
(a)
The shares of XFM Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time, excluding any such shares held in the
treasury of XFM, shall be converted into the right to receive a
number of shares of Common Stock of XML, $.0001 par value per share
(the "XML Common Stock") set forth in this Section 5.1(a). Subject
to the provisions of Sections 5.5 and 5.6 below, such right may be
exercised by the surrender of the certificates representing such
shares of XFM Common Stock in accordance with Section 5.2 hereof.
The number of shares of XML Common Stock issued upon surrender
shall be calculated as follows:
|
|
|
The aggregate number of shares of XML Common Stock so issuable
in the conversion of the XFM Common Stock shall be 71,791,936. The
XML Common Stock shall be allocated to the XFM Shareholders, pro
rata.
|
(b) Each
share of XML Common Stock, issued under paragraph (a) above shall
be restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act.
(c)
Each share of XFM Common Stock, if any, held in XFM's treasury
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and
retired and no payment shall be made in respect thereof.
(d) At
the Effective Time, all outstanding shares of XAC shall be
converted into an aggregate of 100 shares of Common Stock of XFM.
Each share of XAC Common Stock, if any, held in XAC's treasury
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and
retired and no payment shall be made in respect thereof.
5.2
Surrender and Payment . Subject to the provisions of
Sections 5.5 and 5.6 below, after the Effective Time, each holder
of a certificate representing an issued and outstanding share of
XFM Common Stock shall be entitled upon surrender of such
certificate along with a fully executed Subscription Agreement in
the form of Exhibit 5.4, to XML, to receive the XML Common Stock as
set forth in Section 5.1 above. Until so surrendered, each
certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time
represented an issued and outstanding share of XFM Common Stock
shall, upon and after the Effective Time, be deemed for all
purposes to represent and evidence only the right to receive XML
Common Stock as set forth in Section 5.1. If any exchange for
shares of XFM Common Stock is to be made in a name other than that
in which the certificate therefor surrendered for exchange is
registered, it shall be a condition of such payment that the
certificate so surrendered be properly endorsed or otherwise in
proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such
payment either pay to XML any transfer or other similar taxes
required by reason of the payment to a person other than the
registered holder of the certificate surrendered or establish to
the satisfaction of XML that such tax has been paid or is not
payable.
5.3
XML Warrants . At the Effective Time, XML shall grant and
issue to the XFM Shareholders, pro rata, common stock purchase
warrants exercisable to purchase until December 31, 2005 (the

withhold and deposit into escrow under a Holdback Escrow Agreement
substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.5 hereto, a number of shares
of XML Common Stock to be issued to Mark Haugejorde having a Market
Value, as defined herein, of $500,000. For the purposes of the
Holdback Escrow Agreement, the Market Value of the XML Common Stock
shall be equal to the average closing bid price of the XML common
stock on the over-the-counter market as quoted on the OTC
Electronic Bulletin Board for the thirty (30) trading days
immediately prior to the Closing Date. The shares deposited in
escrow under the Holdback Escrow Agreement (the "Holdback Shares")
shall be held in accordance with the Holdback Escrow Agreement to
secure any obligation or liability of XFM under the XFM B-50
Indemnity. In the event of any claim for indemnification under the
XFM B-50 Indemnity, the Holdback Shares shall be applied to payment
of the indemnity claim based upon the Market Value of the shares
determined as of the date of the indemnification claim. The
Holdback Escrow Agreement shall terminate upon the final
disposition of the B-50 litigation, whether by way of settlement,
court order or final judgment from which all appeal, if any, has
been exhausted.

Warrants issuable to the XFM shareholders as a result of the
Merger, except for the Holdback Shares, shall be delivered to and
deposited into escrow with the XML acting corporate secretary, as
escrow agent, pursuant to the terms of a Closing Escrow Agreement,
substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.6 hereto. Under the terms of
the Closing Escrow Agreement, the XML Common Stock and XML Warrants
shall be held in escrow until (i) XFM shall have delivered to XML
the XFM Financial Statements and Pro Forma Financial Information
required pursuant to Section 4.1 of this Agreement and Form 8-K
under the Exchange Act, and (ii) there has been filed with the SEC
a Form 8-K containing the XFM Financial Statements and Pro Forma
Financial Information in accordance with Form 8-K under the
Exchange Act and other applicable Legal Requirements; provided,
however, that in the event that any material liability arises in
connection with the XFM Financial Statements, an amount of shares
of XML Common Stock shall be held in the Closing Escrow
contemplated hereby until such liability is disposed to the
satisfaction of the auditors who prepared the XFM Financial
Statements. If such liability can not be disposed within 75 days
after delivery of the XFM Financial Statements to XML, then the
shares to be distributed to the XFM Shareholders from the Closing
Escrow shall be reduced by the value of the liability.
5.7
No Further Transfers . On and after the Effective Time, no
transfer of the shares of XFM Common Stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be made on the stock
transfer books of XFM.
