It is understood by both parties that in the preparation of legal agreements that will give effect to this transaction certain arrangements to maximize the tax benefit or other benefits to both parties may need to be undertaken. Each of IVP and e Pocket will undertake to accommodate each other's requirements to the fullest extent possible provided however that neither company will knowingly fail to comply with any regulation or statute in the US. PRINCIPAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS The principal terms and conditions for the proposed purchase of a minimum of 5% of ePocket Inc are: o An executed share subscription agreement and shareholders agreement for CAD 300,000 funds for which shall be obtained as follows: - IVP will cause the issuance of a share certificate for 10 million shares of IVP Technology Corporation which will be in unregistered form in the name of ePocket Inc. - IVP will seek to register the 10 million shares at its next available registration' opportunity which will likely be an SB 2 filing in late August 2003. - Once registered the shares will be placed in to an escrow agent account whereby shares will be sold into the open market to generate funds which will be used to pay amounts related to a share subscription agreement to be signed. - The share subscription agreement shall call for funds to be paid from the sale of IVP Technology shares or from other sources if available. - Once the minimum amount of funds required to complete the share subscription agreement has been raised - on terms as mutually agreed, IVP may increase its shareholding in ePocket if it appears that the allotment of the 10 million shares for ePocket will generate additional funds.
