Exhibit 10.1

AMENDMENT TO PATENT PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This AMENDMENT TO PATENT PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the “Amendment”) amends the PATENT
PURCHASE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) entered into on November 17, 2006 (“Effective
Date”) by and between Great Links G.B. Limited Liability Company, a Delaware
limited liability company, with an office at 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, DE
19801 (“Purchaser”), and Path 1 Network Technologies, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, with an office at 6215 Ferris Square, Suite 140, San Diego, CA
92121 (“Seller”) as set forth herein.

 

  1. Except as explicitly defined herein, the capitalized terms used in this
Amendment shall have the meanings defined in the Agreement.

 

  2. Exhibit E is hereby amended to provide data regarding maintenance fees as
of Closing. The revised Exhibit E shall be incorporated into the Agreement.
Exhibit E reflects that one due-and-payable maintenance fee which should have
been paid prior to Closing is unpaid as of Closing, and those funds will be
withheld from the final payment made by Purchaser to Seller.

 

  3. Paragraph 3.4 is hereby amended to read, in its entirety:

“Payment. At Closing, Purchaser will pay to Seller’s agent’s account, as
designated by Seller in writing to Purchaser prior to Closing, the amount of
Five Hundred and Thirty Four Thousand One Hundred U.S. Dollars (US $534,100.00)
as an administrative convenience; such payment is received in that account on
behalf of Seller. Such payment shall fully satisfy all payment obligations under
this Agreement to Seller. Seller shall be fully responsible for, and Purchaser
shall not be liable to Seller or any other person or entity for any dispute
regarding, allocation of payment made under this Agreement. Purchaser may record
the Executed Assignments with the applicable patent offices only on or after
Closing and full payment to Seller’s agent’s account, as set forth above, of the
full amount set forth in this paragraph 3.4.”

 

  4. This Amendment is effective as of the Effective Date, and no amendment or
waiver of the Agreement other than that explicitly set forth herein shall be
inferred, and the terms and conditions of this Amendment shall be governed by
