The Option is exercisable by the Buyer during March and April 2009, subject to shareholder approval, to acquire the balance of the Company’s Medlink operations (and its corresponding debt) by way of acquisition of the remaining 55 shares of the Transax Sub and certain licensing rights for Latin America, Spain and Portugal in exchange for further payments to the Seller of approximately $2,400,000 in the form of twelve monthly payments of $200,000

Buyer shall pay the Bonus to the extent due as follows: 40% of January 31, 2009, 20% on April 30, 2009, 20% on July 31, 2009, and 20% on October 31, 2009. The Bonus shall be payable regardless of whether or not the Buyer elects to exercise the Option.
