Merritt Belisle for $130 with $10 due immediately, $60 due September 30, 2011 and the remaining $60 due September 30, 2012.

In addition to the note receivable, Asure retains the right to receive 3% of net proceeds of the consideration received by VTEL or its shareholders in connection with a potential change of control.

Asure has not placed a value on this right due to the uncertainty surrounding the future outcome.
