    Ladies
and Gentlemen:

    


    Reference
is made to that certain Agreement (the “Agreement”) of even
date herewith by and between Neomedia Technologies, Inc, a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), and YA
Global Investments, L.P. (the “Buyer”).  Pursuant
to the Agreement, the Company shall sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall
purchase from the Company, convertible debentures (the “Debenture”) in the
aggregate principal amount of $400,000.00, plus accrued interest, which are
convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share
(the “Common
Stock”), at the Buyer’s discretion.  The Company has also
issued to the Buyer warrants to purchase up to 600,000 shares of Common Stock,
at the Buyer’s discretion (the “Warrant”).  These
instructions relate to the following stock or proposed stock issuances or
transfers:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.

            	
              Shares
      of Common Stock to be issued to the Buyer upon conversion of the Debenture
      (“Conversion
      Shares”) plus the shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Buyer
      upon conversion of accrued interest into Common Stock (the “Interest
      Shares”).

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              2.

            	
              Up
      to 600,000 shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Buyer upon exercise
      of the Warrant (the “Warrant
      Shares”).

            


    

     

    This
letter shall serve as our irrevocable authorization and direction to WorldWide
Stock Transfer, LLC (the “Transfer Agent”) to
do the following:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.

            	
              Conversion Shares, Warrant
      Shares and Interest Shares.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              a.

            	
              Instructions Applicable to
      Transfer Agent.  With respect to the Conversion Shares,
      Warrant Shares and the Interest Shares, the Transfer Agent shall issue the
      Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares and the Interest Shares to the Buyer
      from time to time upon delivery to the Transfer Agent of a properly
      completed and duly executed Conversion Notice (the “Conversion
      Notice”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A to the Debenture,
      or a properly completed and duly executed Exercise Notice  (the
      “Exercise
      Notice”) in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Warrant,
      delivered to the Transfer Agent by the Company or on behalf of the Company
      by David Gonzalez, Esq. as escrow agent (the “Escrow
      Agent”).  Upon receipt of a Conversion Notice or an
      Exercise Notice, the Transfer Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practical
      thereafter, (i) issue and surrender to a common carrier for overnight
      delivery to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice or the
      Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Buyer or its
      designees, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Buyer
      shall be entitled as set forth in the Conversion Notice or Exercise
      Notice, or (ii) provided the Transfer Agent is participating in The
      Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast
      Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Buyer,
      credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Buyer
      shall be entitled to the Buyer’s or its designees’ balance account with
      DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian (“DWAC”) system,
      provided that the Buyer causes its bank or broker to initiate the DWAC
      transaction, and further provided that a certificate representing such
      shares of Common Stock would not be required to bear a legend restricting
      transfer.

            


    


    
      
         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              b.

            	
              The Company hereby confirms to
      the Transfer Agent and the Buyer that certificates representing the
      Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares and Interest Shares shall not bear any
      legend restricting transfer and should not be subject to any stop-transfer
      restrictions and shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and
      records of the Company; provided that Buyer confirm to the Transfer
      Agent and the Company that the Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares and
      Interest Shares have been or will be sold only pursuant to an effective
      registration statement for such securities under the Securities Act of
      1933, as amended (the “Act”), and that the Buyer has
      complied, or will comply, with all applicable prospectus delivery
      requirements; and
      further provided that counsel to the Company delivers (i) the Notice of
      Effectiveness set forth in Exhibit
      I attached hereto
      and (ii) an opinion of counsel in the form set forth in Exhibit
      II attached hereto,
      and that if the Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares and the Interest Shares
      are not registered for sale under the Act, then the certificates for the
      Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares and Interest Shares shall bear the
      following legend:

            


    

     

    “THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS.  THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE
OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A
FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED
UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO
RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.”

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              c.

            	
              In
      the event that counsel to the Company fails or refuses to render an
      opinion as required to issue the Conversion Shares, the Warrant Shares or
      the Interest Shares in accordance with the preceding paragraph (either
      with or without restrictive legends, as applicable), then the Company
      irrevocably and expressly authorizes counsel to the Buyer to render such
      opinion.  The Transfer Agent shall accept and be entitled to
      rely on such opinion for the purposes of issuing the Conversion Shares,
      the Warrant Shares or the Interest
Shares.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              d.

            	
              Upon
      the Company’s or the Escrow Agent’s receipt of a properly completed
      Conversion Notice or Exercise Notice (along with evidence that the
      Aggregate Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrant) has been delivered to
      the Company), the Company or the Escrow Agent, as the case may be, shall,
      within one Trading Day thereafter, send to the Transfer Agent the
      Conversion Notice or Exercise Notice, as the case may be, which shall
      constitute an irrevocable instruction to the Transfer Agent to process
      such Conversion Notice or Exercise Notice in accordance with the terms of
      these instructions.  For purposes hereof “Trading Day”
      shall mean any day on which the Nasdaq Market is open for customary
      trading.

            


    


    
      
         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              2.

            	
              All
    Shares.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              a.

            	
              The
      Company hereby irrevocably appoints the Escrow Agent as a duly authorized
      agent of the Company for the purposes of authorizing the Transfer Agent to
      process issuances and transfers specifically contemplated
      herein.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              b.

            	
              The
      Transfer Agent shall rely exclusively on the Conversion Notice or the
      Exercise Notice, and shall have no liability for relying on such
      instructions.  Any Conversion Notice or Exercise Notice
      delivered hereunder shall constitute an irrevocable instruction to the
      Transfer Agent to process such notice or notices in accordance with the
      terms thereof.  Such notice or notices may be transmitted to the
      Transfer Agent by facsimile or any commercially reasonable
      method.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              c.

            	
              The
      Company hereby confirms to the Transfer Agent and the Buyer that no
      instructions other than as contemplated herein will be given to Transfer
      Agent by the Company with respect to the matters referenced
      herein.  The Company hereby authorizes the Transfer Agent, and
      the Transfer Agent shall be obligated, to disregard any contrary
      instructions received by or on behalf of the
  Company.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              3.

            	
              Certain Notice Regarding the
      Escrow Agent. The Company and the Transfer Agent hereby acknowledge
      that the Escrow Agent is general counsel to the Buyer, a partner of the
      general partner of the Buyer and counsel to the Buyer in connection with
      the transactions contemplated and referred herein.  The Company
      and the Transfer Agent agree that in the event of any dispute arising in
      connection with this Agreement or otherwise in connection with any
      transaction or agreement contemplated and referred herein, the Escrow
      Agent shall be permitted to continue to represent the Buyer and neither
      the Company nor the Transfer Agent will seek to disqualify such
      counsel.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              4.

            	
              Company
      Acknowledgments.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              a.

            	
              The
      Company hereby agrees that it shall not replace the Transfer Agent as the
      Company’s transfer agent without the prior written consent of the
      Buyer.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              b.

            	
              The
      Company agrees that in the event that the Transfer Agent resigns as the
      Company’s transfer agent the Company shall engage a suitable replacement
      transfer agent that will agree to serve as transfer agent and to be bound
      by the terms and conditions of these Irrevocable Transfer Agent
      Instructions within 5 business days from the effectiveness of such
      resignation.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              c.

            	
              The
      Company acknowledges that the Buyer is relying on the representations and
      covenants made by the Company hereunder and are a material inducement to
      the Buyer purchasing the Debenture pursuant to the
      Agreement.  The Company further acknowledges that without such
      representations and covenants of the Company made hereunder, the Buyer
      would not purchase the Debenture.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              d.

            	
              The
      Company specifically acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a breach
      or threatened breach by a party hereto of any provision hereof, the Buyer
      will be irreparably damaged and that damages at law would be an inadequate
      remedy if these Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions were not
      specifically enforced.  Therefore, in the event of a breach or
      threatened breach by the Company, including, without limitation, the
      attempted termination of the agency relationship created by this
      instrument, the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights
      or remedies, to an injunction restraining such breach, without being
      required to show any actual damage or to post any bond or other security,
      and/or to a decree for specific performance of the provisions of these
      Irrevocable Transfer Agent
Instructions.

            


    

     

    
      
         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              5.

            	
              Transfer Agent Binding
      Disclaimer:  In consideration for the Transfer Agent
      agreeing and attesting to all terms in the above referenced Irrevocable
      Transfer Agent Instructions, in particular any kind of lawsuit and or
      action that may arise from the Buyer’s instructing the Transfer Agent to
      issue shares based on the legality of the Agreement whereas the Company is
      denying the request in full or partially for whatever reason, the Company,
      Buyer and any other Fourth party involved agree for ourselves, our
      successors, legal representatives and assigns, at all times to defend,
      indemnify and save the Transfer Agent, their successors and assigns, free
      and harmless from and against any and all claims, from actions, suits,
      whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all
      liabilities, taxes, losses, damages, costs, charges, counsel fees, and
      other expenses of every nature and character that arises from this
      action.
