On July 29, 2008 (the “Closing Date”), NeoMedia Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) to issue and sell secured convertible debentures (the “Debentures”) to YA Global Investments, L.P. (the “Investor”) in the principal amount of up to Eight Million Six Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($8,650,000) pursuant to the terms of the SPA, dated the Closing Date, by and between the Company and the Investor, of which the first Debenture in the amount of Two Million Three Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($2,325,000) was funded on the Closing Date, the second Debenture in the amount of Two Million Three Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($2,325,000) shall be funded on or after the date ninety (90) days after the Closing Date subject to certain conditions set forth in the SPA and the third Debenture in the amount of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) shall be funded on or after January 1, 2009 subject to certain conditions set forth in the SPA.
 
The Debentures shall mature, unless extended by the holder in accordance with the terms of the Debentures, two years from the issue date, with the first Debenture maturing on July 29, 2010 (“Maturity Date”). The Debentures shall accrue interest at a rate equal to fourteen percent (14%) per annum and such interest shall be paid on the Maturity Date (or sooner as provided in the Debenture) in cash or, provided that certain Equity Conditions are satisfied (as such term is defined in the Debenture), in shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) at the applicable Conversion Price. At any time after the Transaction Date, the Investor shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal and accrued interest thereon into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at a price equal to the lesser of $0.02 and ninety-five percent (95%) of the lowest volume weighted average price of the Common Stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding each conversion date.

The Company shall not affect any conversion, and the Investor shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Debenture to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Investor (together with the Investor’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.

The Company shall have the right to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding (subject to certain conditions in the Debenture) by paying the amount equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus a redemption premium equal to ten percent (10%) of the principal amount being redeemed, and accrued interest.

In connection with the first Debenture, the Company paid Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) directly from the proceeds of the first closing on the Closing Date to Yorkville Advisors LLC (“Investment Manager”) to compensate the Investment Manager for monitoring and managing the purchase and investment made by the Investor pursuant to the Investment Manager’s existing advisory obligations to the Investor. Additional monitoring fees will be paid with the issuance of the second and third Debentures.
