Hi Boris,
I realize from your persp=ctive that Jeffrey's approach is attractive as you don't h=ve to come out of pocket for the
$400k up front. I just want to make=sure you understand the clawback exposure. David won't sign up fo= any clawback,
which effectively leaves you on the hook. Depending o= the performance of Blue Talon and Digisite in relation to the
rest of the=companies in the Fund, the exposure could be significant — well in excess of $400k. In addition, the proposed
form of=agreement is different from the draft we tendered and the signed copies th=t came back, so it will take
additional time for them to digest. I j=st want you to understand the clawback exposure and relative trade-offs of using
a different form of agreement before proceedi=g. Jeffrey and his attorney apparently do not understand the clawbac=
as they haven't addressed it.

It's worth mentio=ing that Peter called me Friday and advised that they fully expected you t= counter-offer the signed
copies they sent. They were just hoping to get the ball moving and want you to sign anything you propose. Si=ning and
delivering Jeffrey's proposal would effectively do that.<=>
Thanks,
Steve =C240

Hi Steve,</=pan>
I am planning to sign thi= and send it today to Peter.
Please can you just take = quick look.
Currently I am offering 5=% of the upside and 150K. This 150K (currently at Biosys bank account) tog=ther with 100K that
they already cash out is 250K — enough for all cost and Boris Bentley
Not sure if I need to pla=e an expiration date (May 15th?)

Hi Boris,<Apan>
David may find the propos=l acceptable as, per the draft agreement, you would effectively be guarant=eing any
clawback obligation that David might otherwise owe. The last time we considered this option, you were unwilling to
=uarantee the clawback and David was unwilling to assume the obligation.Q=A0 That's why we abandoned the carry
approach.

HI Steve
Please find attached a do=ument Jeffrey's attorney wrote.
This is in line what Jeff=ey discussed with Peter.
It seems much easier stru=ture (and better for me as it does not tie up my 400k)
I would like to send it s=gned to David.
I am thinking of lowering=250K to 150K.
Please let me know=u>
Also — I talked t= Peter earlier in day. He brought up Boris' Bentley and admi=ted that he is one that told it to Jeffrey.
He however is telling tha= this was only a joke and that he made it up — that he did not hea= it from David. I do not
believe in this — that was a commen= he was not allow to tell outside their circle.
This just made me certain=that this is my last offer to David.
If they do not accept it,=would like that going forward we cease any communication with them.=u>
Thank youq=pan>
Boris
