|--|------------|--------------------------|

 

This Indemnity Agreement, dated as of November 14,2005, is made by and between Intellisync Corporation, a Delaware corporation(the “Company”), and David Eichler (the “Indemnitee”).

 

**RECITALS**

 

A.           TheCompany is aware that competent and experienced persons are increasinglyreluctant to serve as directors, officers or agents of corporations unless theyare protected by comprehensive liability insurance or indemnification, due toincreased exposure to litigation costs and risks resulting from their serviceto such corporations, and due to the fact that the exposure frequently bears noreasonable relationship to the compensation of such directors, officers andother agents.

 

B.             Thestatutes and judicial decisions regarding the duties of directors and officersare often difficult to apply, ambiguous, or conflicting, and therefore fail toprovide such directors, officers and agents with adequate, reliable knowledgeof legal risks to which they are exposed or information regarding the propercourse of action to take.

 

C.             Plaintiffsoften seek damages in such large amounts and the costs of litigation may be soenormous (whether or not the case is meritorious), that the defense and/orsettlement of such litigation is often beyond the personal resources ofdirectors, officers and other agents.

 

D.            TheCompany believes that it is unfair for its directors, officers and agents andthe directors, officers and agents of its subsidiaries to assume the risk ofhuge judgments and other expenses which may occur in cases in which thedirector, officer or agent received no personal profit and in cases where thedirector, officer or agent was not culpable.

 

E.              TheCompany recognizes that the issues in controversy in litigation against adirector, officer or agent of a corporation such as the Company or itssubsidiaries are often related to the knowledge, motives and intent of suchdirector, officer or agent, that he is usually the only witness with knowledgeof the essential facts and exculpating circumstances regarding such matters,and that the long period of time which usually elapses before the trial orother disposition of such litigation often extends beyond the time that thedirector, officer or agent can reasonably recall such matters; and may extendbeyond the normal time for retirement for such director, officer or agent withthe result that he, after retirement or in the event of his death, his spouse,heirs, executors or administrators, may be faced with limited ability and unduehardship in maintaining an adequate defense, which may discourage such adirector, officer or agent from serving in that position.

 

F.              Basedupon their experience as business managers, the Board of Directors of theCompany (the “Board”) has concluded that, to retain and attract talented andexperienced individuals to serve as directors, officers and agents of theCompany and its subsidiaries and to encourage such individuals to take thebusiness risks necessary for the success of the Company and its subsidiaries,it is necessary for the Company to contractually indemnify its directors,officers and agents and the directors, officers and agents of its subsidiaries,and to assume for itself maximum liability for expenses and damages inconnection with claims against such directors, officers and agents inconnection with their service to the Company and its subsidiaries, and hasfurther concluded that the failure to provide such contractual indemnificationcould result in great harm to the Company and its subsidiaries and the Company’sstockholders.

 

G.             Section 145of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, under which the Company isorganized (“Section 145”), empowers the Company to indemnify itsdirectors, officers, employees and agents by agreement and to indemnify personswho serve, at the request of the Company, as the directors, officers, employeesor agents of other corporations or enterprises, and expressly provides that theindemnification provided by Section 145 is not exclusive.
