ITEM 1.01 - ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

NeoMedia Technologies, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“NeoMedia”), and Wayside Solutions, Inc., a company organized under the laws of Manitoba, Canada, (“Wayside”), entered into a Settlement Agreement, dated December 21, 2004, between Wayside, NeoMedia, BSD Software, Inc. (“BSD”), a Florida corporation, and Triton Global Business Services, Inc. (“Triton”), a company organized under the laws of Canada and subsidiary of BSD (the “Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which NeoMedia agreed to pay USD$789,000 to Wayside in full settlement of certain amounts owed to Wayside by Triton.

NeoMedia’s obligations under the Settlement Agreement were contingent on the consummation of a contemplated merger between NeoMedia and BSD. The merger between NeoMedia and BSD was consummated on March 21, 2006.

On June 15, 2006, NeoMedia agreed to issue and register 3,721,698 shares of NeoMedia common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “NeoMedia Common Stock”) issued to Wayside in full satisfaction of its obligations under the Settlement Agreement (the “June Agreement”). Pursuant to the June Agreement, Wayside instructed NeoMedia to issue such 3,721,698 restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock in the name of Tesscourt Capital LTD, (“Tesscourt”) in satisfaction of NeoMedia’s obligations under the Settlement Agreement.

The Settlement Agreement contained a stipulation that if the share price of the NeoMedia Common Stock declined from the date of issuance of the stock issued pursuant to the Settlement Agreement to the date the shares issued became registered, that NeoMedia would be responsible for the difference in the share price so as to keep Wayside whole.

On August 14, 2007, NeoMedia and Wayside and Tesscourt entered into a Full and Final Settlement Agreement (the “Full and Final Settlement Agreement”), to settle all outstanding obligations between the parties. Pursuant to the terms of the Full and Finial Settlement Agreement, NeoMedia, Wayside and Tesscourt agreed that the entire debt obligation shall be satisfied through the payment by NeoMedia of an additional 28,854,685 shares of NeoMedia Common Stock to be issued no later than August 19, 2007.

The Settlement Agreement is attached hereto as exhibit 99.1.

EXHIBIT 99.1

SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND MUTUAL RELEASE

This Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (hereinafter the “Agreement”) is made as of the 14 day of August, 2007 between WAYSIDE SOLUTIONS, INC. (“Wayside”), a company organized under the laws of Manitoba, Canada, TESSCOURT CAPITAL LTD., a company organized under the laws of Manitoba, Canada (“Tesscourt”) and NEOMEDIA TECHONOLOGIES, INC. (“NeoMedia”), a Delaware corporation, and on the terms and conditions set forth herein. Wayside, Tesscourt and NeoMedia may each be referred to herein as a “Party” or collectively referred to as the “Parties”.

WHEREAS, NeoMedia and Wayside, entered into a Settlement Agreement, dated December 21, 2004, between Wayside, NeoMedia, BSD SOFTWARE, INC. (“BSD”), a Florida corporation, and TRITON GLOBAL BUSINESS SERVICES, INC. (“Triton”), a company organized under the laws of Canada and subsidiary of BSD (the “Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which NeoMedia agreed to pay USD$789,000 to Wayside in full settlement of certain amounts owed to Wayside by Triton;

WHEREAS, NeoMedia’s obligations under the Settlement Agreement were contingent on the consummation of a contemplated merger between NeoMedia and BSD;

WHEREAS, the merger between NeoMedia and BSD was consummated on March 21, 2006;

WHEREAS, on June 15, 2006, NeoMedia agreed to issue and register 3,721,698 shares of NeoMedia common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “NeoMedia Common Stock”) issued to Wayside in full satisfaction of its obligations under the Settlement Agreement (the “June Agreement”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the June Agreement, Wayside instructed NeoMedia to issue such 3,721,698 restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock in the name of Tesscourt;

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, NeoMedia has issued 3,721,698 restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock to Tesscourt pursuant to Wayside’s instructions in satisfaction of its obligations under the Settlement Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to terminate NeoMedia’s obligations under the June Agreement to register the previous issued 3,721,698 restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock; and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to fully and completely settle all remaining obligations between the Parties under the Settlement Agreement, the June Agreement and any other prior agreements and/or arrangements between NeoMedia and Wayside through the issuance by NeoMedia to Tesscourt, pursuant to Wayside’s instructions, of additional restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock.

The Parties hereby stipulate and agree as follows:

1.Adoption of Recitals. The Parties adopt the above recitals as being true and correct, and they are incorporated herein as material parts of this Agreement.

2.Settlement Amount. NeoMedia, as payment in full for any and all obligations under the Settlement Agreement, the June Agreement, and any other prior agreements and/or arrangements between NeoMedia, Wayside and/or Tesscourt shall issue in the name of Tesscourt, pursuant to Wayside’s instructions, additional restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock (such shares, the “Settlement Amount”), the quantity of such additional shares to be issued shall be calculated using the average closing price of NeoMedia Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the issuance of the Settlement Amount, divided into $789,000, less the 3,721,698 restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock previously issued. For example purposes only, if the five (5) trading day average closing price is $0.03 per share, then $789,000 divided by $0.03 equals 26,300,000, less 3,721,698, which equals 22,578,302 additional shares to be issued as the Settlement Amount. The Parties acknowledge and agree that 3,721,698 restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock have previously been issued to Tesscourt, pursuant to Wayside’s instructions, by NeoMedia, and that the remaining restricted shares of NeoMedia common stock shall be payable within five (5) business days from upon execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that any obligations of NeoMedia under any prior agreement or arrangement, including, but not limited to, the June Agreement, to register the 3,721,698 previously issued restricted shares of NeoMedia Common Stock is hereby terminated.

3.Registration Rights. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, NeoMedia shall notify Tesscourt in writing at least ten (10) days prior to the filing of any registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “1933 Act”) for purposes of a public offering of securities of NeoMedia (including, but not limited to, registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of NeoMedia, but excluding any registration statement relating to any employee benefit plan or with respect to any corporate reorganization or other transaction under Rule 145 of the 1933 Act) and will afford Tesscourt an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or part of the Settlement Amount being issued pursuant to this Agreement held by Tesscourt. In the event Tesscourt desires to include in any such registration statement, all of part of the Settlement Amount being issued pursuant to this Agreement held by it shall, within ten (10) days after the above-described notice from NeoMedia, so notify NeoMedia in writing. Such notice shall state the intended method of disposition of the Settlement Amount being issued pursuant to this Agreement held by Tesscourt. If Tesscourt decides not to include all of the Settlement Amount being issued pursuant to this Agreement in the registration statement thereafter filed by NeoMedia, Tesscourt shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any of the Settlement Amount being issued pursuant to this Agreement in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by NeoMedia with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
