Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of BXI and Acquisition Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and obligations of BXI and Acquisition Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Surviving Corporation.

The directors and officers of Acquisition Sub holding office immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time. The officers of Acquisition Sub holding office immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers (holding the same offices as they held with Acquisition Sub) of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time.

Section 1.6. Merger Consideration; Conversion of Shares; Escrow Agreement; Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Conversion of Shares. At the Effective Time, the following events shall occur by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Acquisition Sub, BXI or any BXI Stockholder:

(i) Each share of BXI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than any Dissenting Shares (as defined below), shall automatically be canceled and extinguished and be converted into and become a right to receive the following consideration (the “Merger Consideration”):

(A) an amount in cash (the “Per Share Cash Amount”) equal to the quotient determined by dividing:

(1) $605,673.84 in cash (the “Cash Amount”), by;

(2) the number of shares of BXI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including any Dissenting Shares; and

(B) secured promissory notes in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (collectively referred to as the “Notes”), in the aggregate principal amount equal to the quotient determined by dividing $1,000,000 (subject to the provisions of Section 1.11) by the number of shares of BXI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including any Dissenting Shares; and

(C) an amount equal to the quotient determined by dividing the Earnout Payments (as defined below in Section 1.7 and as and when payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) by the number of shares of BXI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including any Dissenting Shares; and

(ii) Each share of Acquisition Sub common stock, par value $.001 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(iii) All shares of BXI Common Stock (x) that are held by BXI as treasury stock or otherwise or (ii) that are held by ITEX or Acquisition Sub shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist and no Merger Consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

All shares of BXI Common Stock other than the Dissenting Shares, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and holders of certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of BXI Common Stock (the “BXI Certificates”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration to be paid or issued in consideration therefor upon the surrender of such certificates in accordance with Section 1.6(d).

(b) Calculation of Cash Amount. The Cash Amount is calculated as follows: $2,000,000, plus (A) the Cash Balance (as defined in Section 10.7), minus (B) an amount equal to the Shareholder Debt (as defined in Section 10.7), minus (C) an amount equal to the Intagio Receivable (as defined in Section 10.7), minus (D) an amount equal to the Transition Services Fee (as defined in Section 10.7), minus an amount equal to the Operational Liabilities (as defined in Section 10.7) in excess of $81,000. BXI and the Principal Stockholder hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to ITEX that as of the date hereof (the “Signing Date”), the Cash Balance is $35,477.00, the Shareholder Debt is $670,947.16, the Intagio Receivable is $258,856.00, the Transition Services Fee is $500,000, and the amount of Operational Liabilities does not exceed $81,000.

(c) Escrow Agreement. As of the Signing Date, ITEX, BXI and the Principal Stockholder shall enter into an agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C with US Bank, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) and ITEX shall deliver to the Escrow Agent the Cash Amount in immediately available funds and the Notes with the Escrow Agent (such Cash Amount and Notes, the “Exchange Fund”). ITEX agrees to make payments on the Notes directly to the holders thereof as and when due regardless of whether or not the Notes are held by the Escrow Agent when such payments are due.

(d) Exchange of Certificates. As soon as practicable after the Signing Date, the Stockholders’ Representative shall mail and otherwise make available to each record holder who, as of the Signing Date, was a holder of a BXI Certificate a form of letter of transmittal and instructions (in the form of Exhibit 1.6(d)) for use in effecting the surrender of the BXI Certificate for payment and exchange therefore. Delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the BXI Certificate shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the BXI Certificate to the Escrow Agent. Upon surrender to the Escrow Agent of a BXI Certificate, together with such letter of transmittal duly executed, the holder of such BXI Certificate shall be entitled to receive as of the Effective Time in payment and exchange therefor the Merger Consideration to which such holder of BXI Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of this Article 1. No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon surrender of the BXI Certificate. If any portion of the Merger Consideration to be received pursuant to this Article 1 upon exchange of a BXI Certificate is to be paid or issued to a person other than the person in whose name the BXI Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such payment and issuance that the BXI Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such exchange shall pay in advance any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of the Note, or establish to the satisfaction of the Escrow Agent that such tax has been paid or that no such tax is applicable. All payments of cash and issuances of Notes in respect of shares of BXI Common Stock that are made in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been made in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such securities. Until surrendered and exchanged as provided above, each BXI Certificate shall represent solely the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and the holder thereof shall have no right to receive the Merger Consideration to which such holder otherwise would be entitled. In case of any lost, stolen or destroyed BXI Certificate, the holder thereof may be required, as a condition precedent to the delivery to such holder of the consideration described in Section 1.6 and in accordance with Section 167 of the Delaware GCL, to indemnify ITEX against any claim that may be made against the Escrow Agent, ITEX, or the Surviving Corporation with respect to the BXI Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the BXI stockholders for six months after the Effective Time shall be returned to ITEX, upon demand, and any holder of BXI Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Section 1.6(d) shall thereafter look only to ITEX for issuance and payment of the consideration to which such holder has become entitled pursuant to Section 1.6, provided, however, that neither the Escrow Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to a holder of shares of BXI Common Stock for any amount required to be paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat, or similar law. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Section 1.6 to the contrary, the Notes shall remain in the possession of the Escrow Agent until such time as the conditions for their release to the BXI Stockholders have been met (provided that ITEX shall remain obligated to make interest payments on the Notes to the BXI Stockholders).

(e) Calculation. Unless specified otherwise herein, each calculation called for by this Agreement shall be carried out to five (5) decimal places.

(f) No Further Registration. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of BXI Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Section 1.7. Earnout Payment. ITEX shall make earnout payments (“Earnout Payments”) to the BXI Stockholders with respect to each of the first 12 full fiscal quarters following the Signing Date, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2005 (“Earnout Period”), in an aggregate amount equal to 5% of the amount by which the revenue recognized by ITEX and its Subsidiaries (including BXI) on a consolidated basis (calculated in accordance with GAAP, but excluding “Trade Unit Revenue” as defined below) during each such quarter exceeds $3,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the aggregate Earnout Payment with respect to any quarter exceed $37,500. Failure to recognize at least $3,000,000 in revenue in any quarter will result in no Earnout Payment being made for that quarter. No liability with respect to any quarter for an Earnout Payment in excess of $37,500 shall be accrued or carried forward to a subsequent quarterly period. Each Earnout Payment shall be paid by ITEX to the Stockholders’ Representative within 55 days of the end of the quarter for which such Earnout Payment relates, provided that if the quarter is the last quarter of ITEX’s fiscal year, such payment may be made within 100 days of the end of such quarter, and provided further that if ITEX is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 but a quarterly or annual report, as the case may be, is filed late, ITEX shall be granted a grace period for such payment until such filing is actually made (except that no such grace period shall extend for more than 60 days). The Earnout Payments shall be subject to reduction as specified in Section 1.9 hereof. Any such reduction shall be made pro rata amongst the BXI Stockholders in accordance with their respective ownership of shares of BXI Common Stock as of the Effective Time. The Earnout Payment shall be made by ITEX to the Stockholders’ Representative acting on behalf of each BXI Stockholder, other than Dissenting Stockholders, who are entitled to receive Merger Consideration at the Closing, based upon each BXI Stockholder’s ownership of shares of BXI Common Stock as of the Effective Time. For purposes of calculating the Earnout Payment, Trade Unit Revenue shall mean any non-cash revenue recognized based on an exchange of assets for trade or barter credits, based on the fair value of goods or services received in accordance with the guidance of APB 29, EITF 93-11 and EITF 93-17 and any non-cash revenue or ITEX Trade Dollar revenue that may be earned for transaction or association fees.

Section 1.8. Determination of Earnout Payments.

(a) On or prior to the date that each Earnout Payment is required to be made as specified in Section 1.7, ITEX shall provide the Stockholders’ Representative with a statement setting forth the revenue for the period in question and the aggregate Earnout Payment, if any, due to the BXI Stockholders (the “Determination”). ITEX’s computation of any Earnout Payment under this Section 1.8 shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto, except that if any BXI Stockholder does not agree that such Determination correctly states the Earnout Payment for the relevant period (an “Objecting Stockholder”), such Objecting Stockholder shall have the right to give written notice to ITEX of any exceptions thereto within thirty (30) days following the later of (i) the Stockholders’ Representative’s receipt of the Earnout Payment and Determination or (ii) the filing by ITEX of the quarterly or annual report which contains the financial statements to which such Earnout Payment relates (including the filing of any restated financial statements).

Such written notice by an Objecting Stockholder shall include a schedule setting forth such Objecting Stockholder’s computation of the Earnout Payment, together with a copy of any financial information, other than that previously supplied by ITEX to the Stockholders’ Representative, used in making such Objecting Stockholder’s computation. If the Objecting Stockholder and ITEX are unable to reconcile their differences in writing within thirty (30) days after written notice of the exceptions is delivered to ITEX, the items in dispute shall be submitted to a mutually acceptable accounting firm for final determination (the “Determining Accountants”) and the Earnout Payment allocable to the Objecting Stockholder shall be deemed adjusted in accordance with the determination of the Determining Accountants and shall become final and conclusive as to ITEX and the Objecting Stockholder (but shall not adversely affect the Earnout Payments allocable to any non-Objecting Stockholders, which may not be reduced thereby). The Determining Accountants shall consider only the items in dispute and shall be instructed to act within thirty (30) days (or such longer period as the Objecting Stockholder and ITEX may agree) to resolve all claims and dispute.

(b) If the Determining Accountants determine that the Earnout Payments to the Objecting Stockholder are to be adjusted then some or all of the reasonable fees and expenses of the Determining Accountants paid initially by the Objecting Stockholder shall be reimbursed by ITEX to the Objecting Stockholder, the amount of such reimbursement to be determined as follows: if the Determining Accountants determine that the Earnout Payments to the BXI Stockholders (i) do not exceed the Earnout Payments reflected on the Determination, then all of the fees and expenses of the determining Accountants shall be the responsibility of the Objecting Stockholder and the Earnout Payments allocable to any such Objecting Stockholder may be reduced by the amount of such fees and expenses (to the extent that ITEX has paid such fees and expenses and the Objecting Stockholder has not paid such fees and expenses); (ii) exceed the Earnout Payments reflected on the Determination by more than zero but less than $10,000, then all of the fees and expenses of the Determining Accountants shall be borne equally by ITEX and Objecting Stockholder; and (iii) exceed the Earnout Payments reflected on the Determination by $10,000 or more, then all of the fees and expenses of the Determining Accountants shall be borne by ITEX.

(c) In the event the parties are unable to agree upon a mutually acceptable accounting firm to act as Determining Accountant, the Objecting Stockholder and ITEX shall each designate one accounting firm, and those two designated accounting firms shall select an accounting firm mutually acceptable to them to act as the Determining Accountants.

(d) ITEX agrees to provide promptly all information as reasonably requested by the Stockholders’ Representative, and to make available for inspection and review to the Stockholders’ Representative and its agents and representatives, during regular business hours upon reasonable prior written notice, the books and records of ITEX relevant to the determination of whether an Earnout Payment is due and the amount thereof. Access to such information will be conditioned upon execution by the Stockholders’ Representative of a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to ITEX.

Section 1.9. Reduction of Earnout Payments. Any Earnout Payments otherwise payable to the BXI Stockholders are subject to reduction as set forth in Section 1.10 and Article 8, provided that (i) in no event shall Earnout Payments be reduced to less than zero (however, to the extent that the aggregate amount of any reduction to Earnout Payments otherwise due and payable in any quarterly period exceeds the amount of such Earnout Payments, such excess amount may be carried forward to reduce Earnout Payments due and payable in subsequent quarterly periods until such excess amount has been applied in full), (ii) in the event BXI or the Surviving Corporation subsequently recovers any amounts by which Earnout Payments previously had been reduced (whether as a result of settlement, litigation award, arbitration award, insurance recovery or otherwise), then such amounts shall promptly be returned to the BXI Stockholders, and (iii) *** Nothing in this Section 1.9 shall give ITEX the right to withhold or deduct any Earnout Payments otherwise payable to the BXI Stockholders hereunder for costs it anticipates it will incur in connection with litigation (it being agreed that any deduction or withholding of any Earnout Payment shall only be permitted as an offset for costs actually incurred by ITEX in connection with litigation or Losses it actually incurs pursuant to the indemnification provisions and offset rights of Article 8 of this Agreement).

Section 1.10. Operational Liabilities.

(a) In the event that ITEX disagrees with BXI’s calculation of Operational Liabilities as of the Signing Date (i.e., maximum of $81,000), ITEX shall have the right to deliver a written notice to the Stockholder Representative disagreeing with such calculation and setting forth its calculation of such amount, specifying in reasonable details the reasons for such disagreement. If ITEX fails to deliver such a written notice within 90 days following the Signing Date, BXI’s determination of the amount of Operational Liabilities shall be final and binding.

(b) If ITEX delivers a written notice of disagreement pursuant to Section 1.10(a), ITEX and the Stockholders’ Representative shall, during the 30 days following such delivery, use their good faith efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine the amount of Operational Liabilities, which amount shall not be more than the amount thereof shown in ITEX’s calculations delivered pursuant to Section 1.10(a) nor less than the amount set forth in Section 1.6(b) hereof. If ITEX and the Stockholders’ Representative are unable to reach such agreement during such 30 day period, they shall promptly thereafter cause the Determining Accountants promptly to review the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating the amount of Operational Liabilities. In making such calculation, the Determining Accountants shall consider only those items or amounts in ITEX’s written notice as to which ITEX has disagreed. The Determining Accountants shall deliver to ITEX and the Stockholders’ Representative, as promptly as practicable, a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be final and binding upon ITEX, BXI, the Surviving Corporation, and the BXI Stockholders. The costs, fees and expenses of the Determining Accountants shall be borne by the BXI Stockholders in the event the report indicates that the Operational Liabilities were understated by more than 5% (provided that Operational Liabilities shall not be deemed to have been understated for this purpose if and to the extent the Stockholders’ Representative agrees to any adjustment prior to submission of the dispute to the Determining Accountants); otherwise ITEX shall bear all such costs, fees and expenses.

*** Confidential material redacted and filed separately with the Commission.

(c) If a determination is made by the Determining Accountants that the amount of Operational Liabilities at the Signing Date exceeded $81,000 (or if the parties mutually agree that there was an excess), then the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted by reducing the Earnout Payments in an amount equal to the aggregate dollar amount of such excess.

(d) Any adjustment in the Merger Consideration required by this Section 1.10 shall be made based on each BXI Stockholder’s pro rata share.

Section 1.11. Appraisal Rights. Shares of BXI Common Stock that have not been voted for approval of this Agreement and with respect to which a demand for payment and appraisal have been properly made in accordance with Section 262 of the Delaware GCL (“Dissenting Shares”), will not be converted into the right to receive that portion of the Merger Consideration otherwise payable with respect to such shares of BXI Common Stock after the Effective Time but will be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware. If a holder of Dissenting Shares (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) withdraws such holder’s demand for such payment and appraisal or becomes ineligible for such payment and appraisal under Section 262 of the Delaware GCL, then, as of the Effective Time or the occurrence of such event of withdrawal or ineligibility, whichever last occurs, such holder’s Dissenting Shares will cease to be Dissenting Shares and will be converted into the right to receive, and will be exchangeable for, that portion of the Merger Consideration into which such Dissenting Shares would have been converted pursuant to Section 1.6. BXI will give ITEX and Acquisition Sub prompt written notice of any demand received by BXI from a holder of Dissenting Shares for appraisal of shares of BXI Common Stock. Each Dissenting Stockholder who, pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware GCL, becomes entitled to payment of the fair value of the Dissenting Shares will receive payment therefor from ITEX (but only after the fair value therefor has been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to such provisions and only to the extent permitted by applicable law). ITEX will not make any payment to any Dissenting Stockholder in settlement of such Dissenting Stockholder’s claim (except as required by law) without the prior written approval of the Principal Stockholder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 1.12. Repayments. On the Signing Date, ITEX shall deliver to the Escrow Agent immediately available funds in an amount equal to $1,429,803.16, which amount is equal to the sum of the Transition Services Fee, plus the Intagio Receivable, plus the Shareholder Debt, in addition to the amounts delivered by ITEX to the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 1.6(c). Payment of the above-referenced amounts in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement shall be in full satisfaction of all amounts owed by BXI to the Principal Stockholder with respect to the Intagio Receivable, the Shareholder Debt and the Transition Services Fee, and by BXI to the other BXI Stockholders with respect to the Shareholder Debt. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that as of the Signing Date there will be no amounts owed by BXI to the Principal Stockholder or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 1.13. Trade Accounts. Effective as of the Signing Date, all reciprocal or other trade accounts between the Principal Stockholder, BXI, any of the Principal Stockholders’ Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, executives or employees (on the one hand) and ITEX (on the other hand) shall be closed, and all rights pertaining thereto shall be waived, including but not limited to Intagio Trading Network’s ITEX Account, #0115061000570, Intagio Trading Network’s BXI Account, #197503444, and BXI’s Intagio Trading Network Account, #916225975. The foregoing shall not affect reciprocal or other trade accounts that may exist between independent contractors of BXI and ITEX or any ITEX franchisees, or any reciprocal or other trade accounts that may exist between ITEX franchisees and BXI or independent contractors of BXI, which shall remain in effect following the Signing Date and the Closing in accordance with their terms.

Section 5.2. Intentionally Omitted

Section 5.3. Certain Filings; Reasonable Efforts. Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, each of the parties hereto agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all action and to do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including executing any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.4. Confidentiality; Public Announcements. Each of the parties hereto will hold, and will cause its agents, representatives, consultants and advisers to hold, in confidence all documents and the Confidential Information furnished to it by or on behalf of another party to this Agreement in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.5. Stockholder Consent Solicitation. Within three business days following the Signing Date, BXI will circulate a consent solicitation, including an action by written consent and information statement, in order for the holders of BXI stock to consider and approve the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, in accordance with the Delaware GCL.

The consent solicitation shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.

Section 5.6. TradeIt! Software. ITEX acknowledges that the “TradeIt!” software (including any related software or database programs) is not owned by BXI and that BXI’s right to use such software shall terminate as of the Signing Date, except as specifically set forth in the Transition Services Agreement and that certain Post-Signing Date TradeIt Online User Agreement between the Principal Stockholder and BXI, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit F. ITEX agrees, on its behalf and on behalf of BXI (prior to the Closing Date) and the Surviving Corporation (as of and after the Closing Date), not to assert any claims with respect to the TradeIt! Software at any time.

Section 5.7. Litigation. If and to the extent the Principal Stockholder or any of its Subsidiaries (other than BXI) is a party to any litigation involving BXI, BXI shall retain separate counsel to represent it in connection therewith and the Principal Stockholder shall be entitled to retain BXI’s former counsel to represent the Principal Stockholder in connection therewith. ITEX agrees to cause BXI (prior to the Closing Date) and the Surviving Corporation (as of and after the Closing Date) to execute a conflict waiver in connection therewith if reasonably requested by counsel to the Principal Stockholder. With respect to any such litigation in which BXI is defending against any cross-claims, BXI or the Surviving Corporation’s separate counsel shall serve as primary counsel defending BXI or the Surviving Corporation and the Principal Stockholder, provided that the Principal Stockholder may choose to have its own counsel participate in such defense at its own expense, with the defense being coordinated by BXI or the Surviving Corporation’s counsel. No settlement in any such case shall be agreed to by BXI (prior to the Closing Date) or by the Surviving Corporation (as of and after the Closing Date) without the prior written consent of the Principal Stockholder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 5.8. Non-solicitation.

(a) For a period of three years from and after the Signing Date, the Principal Stockholder will not directly or indirectly solicit for employment any person who is, or has been at any time since January 1, 2002, employed by Area Directors of BXI or employed by ITEX or brokers or franchisees of ITEX.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge that Intagio Trading Network, Inc., a subsidiary of the Principal Stockholder, engages in substantially the same business as ITEX and BXI, and has done so for at least four years prior to the Signing Date. Additionally, the parties acknowledge that the Principal Stockholder has solicited, and has the right to solicit in the future, ITEX customers. Except as expressly set forth in this Subsection, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or constrain in any way the Principal Stockholder or any Subsidiary of the Principal Stockholder from engaging in the same business that it engaged in prior to the Signing Date, or from engaging in any form of trade transactions, barter exchange management, or other business activities related or pertaining to trading, trade facilitation, or media transactions and media agency relationships, or from soliciting or retaining as customers existing or former ITEX or BXI customers in the ordinary course of business. Without limiting the scope of the foregoing, for a period of one year from and after the Signing Date, the Principal Stockholder agrees, on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, that it shall not (i) implement a company-wide strategy the purpose of which is intentionally to solicit existing customers of ITEX or BXI on a wholesale basis to become clients of the Principal Stockholder or of any of the Principal Stockholder’s Subsidiaries, or (ii) provide any employee(s) or contractor(s) of the Principal Stockholder (or of any of the Principal Stockholder’s Subsidiaries) whose primary function is sales or business development with access to the BXI TradeIt! database or to BXI client information contained therein. In furtherance of the foregoing, promptly following the public announcement of the Merger in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Principal Stockholder shall:

(i) notify its and its Subsidiaries’ employees informing each of them of the Merger and instructing each of them that, for a period of two years from the Signing Date, they shall not make any statements to any Joint Clients (as defined below) to the effect that such Joint Client should terminate its relationship with BXI or ITEX, as applicable. A “Joint Client” with respect to any employee of the Principal Stockholder or any of its Subsidiaries is any existing or potential customer of the Intagio Trading Network, Inc. with whom such employee knows (or has a reasonable basis to know) was a customer of BXI or ITEX as of the Signing Date; and

(ii) take such steps as are reasonable under the circumstances to bar those employees and contractors of the Principal Stockholder (or of any of the Principal Stockholder’s Subsidiaries) whose primary function is sales or business development from having access to the BXI TradeIt! database or to BXI client information contained therein during the requisite time period set forth above.

Nothing in this Section shall place any limitation on the nature or scope of business relationships between the Principal Stockholder (or any of its Subsidiaries) and those customers that the Principal Stockholder (or any of its Subsidiaries) had a business relationship with prior to the Signing Date. Further, nothing in this Section shall restrict the Principal Stockholder (or any of its Subsidiaries) from conducting business with any past, present or future customer of ITEX or BXI after the Signing Date, as long as the Principal Stockholder complies with the provisions set forth in this Section 5.8.

(c) If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Section 5.8 is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability will have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement will be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

Section 5.9. Additional Actions. After the Signing Date, each party hereto, at the request of and without any further cost or expense to the other parties, shall take any further actions reasonably necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, to vest in Surviving Corporation full title to all properties, assets and rights of BXI, and to effect the issuance of the Merger Consideration to the BXI Stockholders pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof.
