                            REVISED MERGER AGREEMENT

 

 

     THIS MERGER AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made this 9th day of November, 2004,

by and among OneSource Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("OneSource"),

First Financial Computer Services, Inc., an Arkansas corporation (the

"Company"), and Robert H. Thomason, Mary H. Thomason, Randy H. Thomason, and Jon

M. Thomason (each a "Shareholder" and, collectively, the "Shareholders").

 

     Shareholders own all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the

Company. The parties hereto desire that the Company be merged with and into

OneSource on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (the

"Merger").

 

     The Parties executed a Merger Agreement dated June 14, 2004 (the "June

Agreement"). This Agreement replaces and supersedes the June Agreement in its

entirety.

 

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

covenants set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

 

                                     SECTION 1

                       MERGER OF THE COMPANY AND ONESOURCE

 

     1.1 Merger. On the Effective Date (as defined in Section 1.7), the Company

shall be merged with and into OneSource, which shall be the surviving

corporation, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger attached as Exhibit A

hereto (the "Agreement and Plan of Merger"). At the time of Closing (as defined

below), OneSource shall cause a Certificate of Merger to be filed with the

Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and Shareholders shall cause

Articles of Merger to be filed with the Secretary of State of Arkansas.

 

     1.2 Effect of the Merger. Upon the Merger becoming effective, the separate

existence of the Company shall cease, and OneSource shall succeed to and possess

all the properties, rights, privileges, powers, franchises, and immunities, of a

public as well as of a private nature, and be subject to all the debts,

liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities, and duties of the Company,

all without further act or deed, as provided in Section 259 of the Delaware

General Corporation Law Act.

 

     1.3 Name of OneSource. The name of OneSource shall be changed to a name to

be mutually reasonably agreed upon prior to Closing.

 

     1.4 Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Articles of Incorporation and

the Bylaws of OneSource as in effect on the Effective Date shall be, from and

after the Effective Date, the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of OneSource

until they are amended.

 

     1.5 Status and Conversion of Securities.

 

     (a) Conversion of Company Stock. Upon the Merger becoming effective, the

shares of common stock, no par value per share, of the Company issued and

outstanding on

 

<PAGE>

the Effective Date (the "Shares"), by reason of the Merger and upon surrender to

OneSource by the holders thereof, shall be converted into the following:

 

          (i) Cash in the aggregate amount of $1,500,000 (the "Cash") in a

cashier's or certified check or by wire transfer of funds to an account

specified by Shareholders; and

 

          (ii) An aggregate of 9,500,000 shares of One Source's common stock,

par value $.001 per share (the "OneSource Common Stock"); and

 

          (iii) Four promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of

$1,000,000, in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (the "OneSource

Promissory Notes").

 

     (b) Exchange of Certificates. On and after the Effective Date, each holder

(other than OneSource) of an outstanding certificate or certificates

representing the Shares, upon surrender thereof to OneSource, shall be entitled

to receive in exchange therefor (i) an amount of Cash, (ii) a certificate or

certificates representing the number of shares of OneSource Common Stock, and

(iii) a OneSource Promissory Note in the principal amount into which the Shares

theretofore represented by such surrendered certificate or certificates shall

have been converted as illustrated and provided for on Schedule 1.5(b) hereto.

Until so surrendered, each outstanding certificate representing Shares shall be

deemed for all purposes to represent the amount of cash, the number of shares of

OneSource Common Stock, and the principal amount of OneSource Promissory Note

into which the Shares theretofore represented thereby shall have been converted.

At the Closing, OneSource shall make available, for the benefit of Shareholders,

the amount of Cash, the number of shares of OneSource Common Stock, and the

OneSource Promissory Note required for conversion in accordance with this

Agreement.

 

     1.6 Further Documents. From time to time, on and after the Effective Date,

as and when requested by OneSource or its successors or assigns, the appropriate

officers and directors of the Company as of the Effective Date shall, at the

expense of OneSource, for and on behalf and in the name of the Company or

otherwise, execute and deliver all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments, and

other instruments and shall take or cause to be taken such further or other

actions as OneSource or its successors or assigns may deem necessary or

desirable in order to confirm of record or otherwise to OneSource title to and

possession of all of the properties, rights, privileges, powers, franchises, and

immunities of the Company and otherwise to carry out fully the provisions and

purposes of this Agreement.

 

     1.7 Effective Date. The Merger shall become effective on the later to occur

of (a) the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of

the State of Delaware, and (b) the filing of Articles of Merger with the

Secretary of State of the State of Arkansas (the "Effective Date").

 

     1.8 The Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the

consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this

Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place as promptly as practicable (and in

any event within three business days after the satisfaction or waiver of the

conditions set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement), at the offices of Rogers &

Theobald LLP, 2425 East Camelback Road, Suite 850, Phoenix, Arizona

the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been

duly executed and delivered by, and constitutes the legal, valid, and binding

obligation of, the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms,

except that (i) such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,

insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws now or hereafter

unliquidated or otherwise, except as and to the extent disclosed or reflected in

the balance sheet (the "Company Base Balance Sheet") as of March 31, 2004, (the

security interest, or title retention or other security arrangement, except for

liens for the payment of federal, state, and other taxes, the payment of which

is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties, and except for other liens and

encumbrances incidental to the conduct of the business of the Company or the

ownership of its assets or properties, which were not incurred in connection

with the borrowing of money or the obtaining of advances and which do not in the

aggregate materially detract from the value of the assets or properties of the

Company or materially impair the use thereof in the operation of its business,

except in each case as disclosed in the Company Base Balance Sheet. All leases

pursuant to which the Company leases any substantial amount of real or personal

property are valid and effective in accordance with their respective terms. The

Company owns or has the right to use all assets, rights, and properties

necessary to conduct its business as currently conducted.

litigation pending or, to the knowledge of Shareholders, threatened against the

other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency, or

<PAGE>

     (l) Rights and Licenses. To the knowledge of the Company, the Company is

not subject to any material disability or liability by reason of its failure to

possess any license, permit, franchise, certificate, registration, consent,

approval, or authorization. To the knowledge of the Company, the Company has all

licenses, permits, franchises, certificates, registrations, consents, approvals,

and authorizations of whatever kind and type, governmental or private, necessary

for the business conducted by it and the ownership or use of all assets and

properties and the premises occupied by it. To the knowledge of the Company, the

Company's and Shareholders' Disclosure Schedule will contain a true, correct,

and complete list of licenses, permits, franchises, certificates, registrations,

consents, approvals, and authorizations of whatever kind and type held by the

Company for the conduct of the Company's business.

 

     (m) Intellectual Property. To the knowledge of the Company, the Company

owns or holds all of the rights to use all logos, trademarks, trade names,

Internet domain names, trade secrets, fictitious names, service marks,

proprietary processes, patents, and copyrights that are used in or necessary to

the operation of its business (collectively, "Intellectual Property"). To the

knowledge of the Company, the Company's and Shareholders' Disclosure Schedule

will set forth a true, complete, and correct list of all of the Intellectual

Property owned or used by the Company, including but not limited to all Internet

"domain names" used by the Company that are registered with a U.S. or foreign

domain name registrar, the names of all software programs used by the Company,

copies of the software user licenses, and a list of all trademark and copyright

registrations applied for and/or issued with respect to the Intellectual

Property, including any foreign copyright registrations or interests under any

international copyright conventions or treaties. Shareholders are not aware of

any facts, claims, or circumstances that would enable any person or entity to

challenge the Company's ownership of or right to use any of the Intellectual

Property, including the Company's copyrights or trademarks, its rights to

register such copyrights or trademarks, and the right to seek all available

protections and remedies against any party that infringes such copyrights or

trademarks. To the knowledge of the Company, none of the matters covered by the

Intellectual Property, nor any of the products or services sold or provided by

the Company, nor any of the processes used or the business practices followed by

the Company, infringes or has infringed upon any logo, trademark, trade name,

trade secret, fictitious name, service mark, proprietary process, patent, or

copyright owned by any person or entity (or any application with respect

thereto), or constitutes unfair competition. The Company is not and, following

the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, will not be obligated to pay any

royalty or other payment with respect to any of the Intellectual Property, other

than license, maintenance and other payments provided for in agreements for the

Intellectual Property. The Company has taken all actions reasonably necessary

under applicable law to protect all trade secrets and confidential information

used or contained in the Intellectual Property including, but not limited to,

limitation of access to such information, confidentiality agreements with

employees, and advising its employees with access to such trade secrets or

confidential information regarding the status of such trade secrets or

confidential information.

 

     (n) No Violation. To the knowledge of the Company, the execution and

delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation of the

transactions contemplated hereby will not violate or result in a breach by the

Company of, or constitute a default under, or conflict with, or cause any

acceleration of any obligation with respect to, (i) any provision or restriction

of any charter, bylaw, loan, indenture, or mortgage of the Company, or

 

                                        6

<PAGE>

(ii) any provision or restriction of any lien, lease agreement, contract,

instrument, order, judgment, award, decree, ordinance, or regulation or any

other restriction of any kind or character to which any assets or properties of

the Company is subject or by which the Company is bound.

 

     (o) Taxes. To the knowledge of the Company, the Company has duly filed in

correct form all Tax Returns (as defined below) relating to the activities of

the Company required or due to be filed (with regard to applicable extensions)

on or prior to the date of this Agreement. To the knowledge of the Company, all

such Tax Returns are accurate and complete in all material respects, and the

Company has paid or made provision for the payment of all Taxes (as defined

below) that have been incurred or are due or claimed to be due from it by

federal, state, or local taxing authorities for all periods ending on or before

the date of this Agreement, other than Taxes or other charges that are not

delinquent or are being contested in good faith and have not been finally

determined and have been disclosed to OneSource. To the knowledge of the

Company, the amounts set up as reserves for Taxes on the books of the Company

are sufficient in the aggregate for the payment of all unpaid Taxes (including

any interest or penalties thereon), whether or not disputed, accrued, or

applicable. No claims for taxes or assessments are being asserted or, to the

knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company. For purposes of this

Agreement, the term "Taxes" shall mean all taxes, charges, fees, levies, or

other assessments, including, without limitation, income, gross receipts,

excise, property, sales, transfer, license, payroll, and franchise taxes,

imposed by the United States, or any state, local, or foreign government or

subdivision or agency thereof and any interest, penalties, or additions

attributable thereto, and the term "Tax Return" shall mean any report, return,

or other information required to be supplied to a taxing authority or required

by a taxing authority to be supplied to any other person. The Company has duly

and validly filed elections for C corporation status under the Internal Revenue

Code; none of such elections have been revoked or terminated; and neither the

Company nor any shareholder of the Company has taken any action that would cause

a termination of such election.

 

     (p) Accounts Receivable. To the knowledge of the Company, the accounts

receivable of the Company have been acquired in the ordinary course of business,

are valid and enforceable, and are fully collectible, subject to no known

defenses, set-offs, or counterclaims, except to the extent of the reserve

reflected in the books of the Company or in such other amount that is not

material in the aggregate.

 

     (q) Contracts. The Company is not a party to (i) any plan or contract

providing for bonuses, pensions, options, stock purchases, deferred

compensation, retirement payments, or profit sharing, (ii) any collective

bargaining or other contract or agreement with any labor union, (iii) any lease,

installment purchase agreement, or other contract with respect to any real or

personal property used or proposed to be used in its operations, excepting, in

each case, items included within aggregate amounts disclosed or reflected in the

Company Base Balance Sheet, (iv) any employment agreement or other similar

arrangement not terminable by it upon 30 days or less notice without penalty to

it, (v) any contract or agreement for the purchase of any commodity, material,

fixed asset, or equipment in excess of $10,000, (vi) any contract or agreement

creating an obligation of $10,000 or more, (vii) any contract or agreement that

by its terms does not terminate or is not terminable by it upon 30 days or less

notice without penalty to it, (viii) any loan agreement, indenture, promissory

note, conditional sales agreement, or other

 

                                       7

<PAGE>

similar type of arrangement, (ix) any material license agreement, or (x) any

contract that may result in a material loss or obligation to it. To the

knowledge of the Company, all material contracts, agreements, and other

arrangements to which the Company is a party are valid and enforceable in

accordance with their terms; the Company and all other parties to each of the

foregoing have performed all obligations required to be performed to date;

neither the Company nor any such other party is in default or in arrears under

the terms of any of the foregoing; and no condition exists or event has occurred

that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a

default under any of them.

 

     (r) Compliance with Law and Other Regulations. The Company is not subject

to and, to the knowledge of the Company, has not been threatened with any

material fine, penalty, liability, or disability as the result of its failure to

comply with any requirement of federal, state, local, or foreign law or

regulation or any requirement of any governmental body or agency having

jurisdiction over it, the conduct of its business, the use of its assets and

properties, or any premises occupied by it.

 

     (s) Environmental Matters.

 

          (i) To the knowledge of the Company, the Company is, and at all times

has been, in full compliance with, and has not been and is not in violation

of or liable under, any federal, state, or local environmental laws. There

are no actual or, to the knowledge of Shareholders, threatened orders,

notices, or other communications of or with respect to any actual or

potential violation or failure to comply with any federal, state, or local

environmental laws, or of any actual or threatened obligation to undertake

or bear the cost of any environmental, health, and safety liabilities with

respect to any of the facilities, properties or assets (whether real,

     (c) Power to Execute Agreement. Such Shareholder has full power and

authority to execute, deliver, and perform this Agreement, and this Agreement is

the legal and binding obligation of such Shareholder. No other proceedings on

the part of the Shareholders, including a meeting of shareholders, are necessary

to authorize the execution and delivery by the Shareholders of this Agreement or

the consummation by the Shareholders of the transactions contemplated hereby.

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by, and constitutes a legal,

valid, and binding agreement of, such Shareholder, enforceable against such

Shareholder in accordance with its terms, except that (i) such enforcement may

be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other

similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights, and (ii)

Shareholders, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Shareholder,

the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the fulfillment of

the terms hereof, will not result in the breach of any term or provision of, or

judgment, decree, order, or award of any court, governmental body or arbitrator,

or any law, rule, or regulation applicable to such Shareholder.

counsel and accountants or other financial advisers with respect to the

financial, tax, and other considerations relating to the acquisition of

represents and warrants that he or she has reviewed with his or her own tax

advisors the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of the

investment in OneSource's Common Stock and OneSource's Promissory Note. Such

Shareholder is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or

representations of OneSource or any of its officers, directors, employees, or

agents and understands that such Shareholder (and not OneSource) shall be

responsible for his or her own tax liability, if any, that may arise as a result

of the acquisition of OneSource's Common Stock and OneSource's Promissory Note

or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

contain a legend with respect to the restrictions on transfer under federal and

applicable state securities laws as well as the fact that the shares and such

note are "restricted securities" under such federal and state laws. Such

Shareholder has been furnished with such information, both financial and

non-financial, with respect to the operations, business, capital structure, and

financial position of OneSource and its subsidiaries as he or she, or it

believes necessary and has been given the opportunity to ask questions of and

concerning One Source and its subsidiaries. Without limiting the foregoing, such

Shareholder specifically acknowledges the receipt of OneSource's Form 10-KSB

aware of any material inaccuracy in any representation or warranty of OneSource

prior to Closing, the Shareholder will notify OneSource of such material

inaccuracy.

this Agreement nor any statement, list, certificate, or other information

furnished by the Company or such Shareholder to OneSource in connection with

the statements contained herein or therein, in light of circumstances in which

they are made, not misleading.

representation or warranty by the Company.

authority to enter into this Agreement and carry out the transactions

contemplated hereby. The Board of Directors of OneSource has duly

authorized the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement. No

of OneSource's shareholders, are necessary to authorize the execution and

delivery by OneSource of this Agreement or the consummation by OneSource of

the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed

and delivered by, and constitutes a legal, valid, and binding agreement of,

OneSource, enforceable against OneSource in accordance with its terms,

except that (i) such enforcement may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,

reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws now or hereafter in

effect relating to creditors' rights, and (ii) the remedy of specific

performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be

subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before

which any proceeding therefore may be brought.

5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value, of which no shares are

issued and outstanding. As of such date, 2,065,000 shares of OneSource's Common

Stock were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding stock options.

All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of OneSource and each

of its subsidiaries have been validly authorized and issued and are fully paid

subsidiaries has outstanding any options, warrants, or other rights to purchase,

or securities or other obligations convertible into or exchangeable for, or

contracts, commitments, agreements, arrangements, or understandings to issue,
