ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT
THIS ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of July 31, 2002, is by and among
INTEGRATED TRADING SOLUTIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "PURCHASER"),
A.B. WATLEY GROUP INC., a Delaware corporation ("ABW"), and A.B. WATLEY, INC., a
New York corporation ("INC." and, with ABW, referred to at times as a "SELLER"
or "SELLERS").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Sellers desires to sell, transfer and assign to the Purchaser,
and the Purchaser desires to purchase and assume from the Sellers, all of the
Sellers` proprietary software assets, certain related intellectual property and
contract rights, and certain other assets, all as set forth in EXHIBIT A (the
"ASSETS"), pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants
contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby
agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
SALE OF ASSETS; ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES; CLOSING
1.1. SALE OF ASSETS. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
at the Closing (as defined herein), the Sellers shall sell, assign, transfer and
deliver to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Sellers, all
of the Sellers` right, title and interest in and to the Assets.
1.2. ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES. The Purchaser does not assume and shall
have no liability whatsoever for any liability or obligation of any nature of
the Sellers, other than those liabilities and obligations arising from
agreements assigned to Purchaser by Sellers (and for which Sellers and Purchaser
have obtained the written consent of applicable third parties) after Closing to
the extent the same are expressly noted as accepted in writing by Purchaser in a
separate written notice provided by Purchaser to Sellers at or after Closing or
are noted as "Assumed Liabilities" on EXHIBIT A subject to any limitations noted
on EXHIBIT A (collectively, the "ASSUMED LIABILITIES"). Subject solely to the
effect of the terms set forth on EXHIBIT A and/or in any separate written notice
referred to in the first sentence of this Section, Purchaser shall reimburse
Sellers for the costs incurred by Sellers in connection with the Assumed
Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the first sentence of
this Section, Purchaser shall not be obligated to assume the agreements
comprising Assumed Liabilities unless such assumption is on terms satisfactory
to Purchaser, provided that Purchaser agrees to use commercially reasonable
efforts to reach such acceptable terms with any third party to such agreements,
provided, further, that Sellers understand and agree that the decision to assume
any such agreement shall be in Purchaser`s sole discretion (for example, and
without limitation, (a) the failure of a third party to provide a license for
its products that will enable Purchaser to utilize such products for itself (and
not just for the benefit of Sellers) to enable global service bureau operations,
offsite licensing and product sales, (b) any increase proposed by a third party
with respect to its fees or costs, (c) any requirement that Purchaser assume
liabilities of Sellers that exist or existed prior to June 1, 2002, (d) any
determination by Purchaser or a third party that Sellers are not sufficiently
participating in the settlement of outstanding issues or indebtedness, and (e)
any determination by Purchaser that it would have to accept an obligation
related to providing multiple server or connectivity redundancy or technology
facilities or service of any kind from any physical location other than
Purchaser`s facility in Texas, would excuse Purchaser from concluding an
assignment). At the reasonable request of any Seller, Purchaser shall consider
