On August 10, 2006, Think Partnership Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amendment of its April 22, 2005 acquisition agreement of PrimaryAds Inc. pursuant to which the parties agreed to restructure the earnout provisions contained in the original acquisition agreement. Under the terms of the original agreement, the former shareholders of PrimaryAds could have earned additional merger consideration of up to $16,000,000 based on the pre-tax earnings of PrimaryAds for the first twelve full calendar quarters following the closing of the acquisition; with the first $10,000,000 of the additional merger consideration, to the extent earned, being paid in shares of the Company’s common stock and the remainder, to the extent earned, being paid fifty percent (50%) in cash and fifty percent (50%) in shares of the Company’s common stock.

Under the amendment, the terms of the earnout were restructured such that the former shareholders of PrimaryAds may receive additional merger consideration of up to 4,857,301 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The additional merger consideration becomes payable if certain thresholds of consolidated earnings from operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, other than Morex Marketing Group, LLC, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (hereinafter referred to as “Consolidated EBITDA”) are achieved during the first three consecutive twelve month periods occurring after June 30, 2006.  The amendment also provides for the acceleration of the payment of the additional merger consideration if there is a “change of control” of the Company defined therein as any of the following: (1) a merger, reorganization or other business combination if immediately following the transaction, a majority of the common stock of the Company is held by persons who were not shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the transaction; (2) the cumulative acquisition, either directly or indirectly through one transaction or a series of related transactions, of 50% or more of the then issued and outstanding common stock of the Company; or (3) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.
