SUBSCRIPTION AGENT AGREEMENT




May ___, 2009




American Stock Transfer & Trust Company

59 Maiden Lane

New York, New York 10038




Ladies and Gentlemen:



In connection with your appointment as Subscription Agent in the transaction described herein,
Intelligent Systems Corporation (the “Company”), hereby confirms its arrangements with you as
follows:




	1.	 	Rights Offering — The Company is offering
(the “Rights Offering”) to the holders of  shares of its
Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), on May 22, 2009 (the
“Record Date”), the right (“Rights”) to subscribe
for Units (“Units”), each Unit consisting of
one share of Common Stock.. Except as set forth under Paragraphs 7 and 8 below, Rights shall
cease to be exercisable at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 22, 2009 or such later date
of which the Company notifies you orally and confirms in writing (the
“Expiration Date”). One
Right is being issued for each share of Common Stock held on the Record Date. One Right and
payment in full of the subscription price of $0.70 (the “Subscription Price”) is required to
subscribe for one Unit. Rights are evidenced by non-transferable subscription certificates in
registered form (“Subscription Certificates”). Each holder of Subscription Certificate(s) who
exercises the holder’s right to subscribe for all Units that can be subscribed for with the
Rights evidenced by such Subscription Certificate(s) (the “Basic Subscription Right”) will
have the right to subscribe for additional Units, if any, available as a result of any
unexercised Rights (such additional subscription right being referred to hereafter as the
“Additional Subscription Privilege”). The Rights Offering will be conducted in the manner and
upon the terms set forth in the Company’s Prospectus dated __________, 2009 (the
“Prospectus”), which is incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof as if set
forth in full herein.
	 
	2.	 	Appointment of Subscription Agent — You are hereby appointed as Subscription Agent to
effect the Rights Offering in accordance with the Prospectus. Each reference to you in this
letter is to you in your capacity as Subscription Agent unless the context indicates
otherwise.
	 
	3.	 	Delivery of Documents — Enclosed herewith are the following, the receipt of which you
acknowledge by your execution hereof:






	 	(a)	 	a copy of the Prospectus;
	 
	 	(b)	 	the form of Subscription Certificate (with instructions);
	 
	 	(c)	 	resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company in connection with the
Rights Offering, certified by the secretary of the Company; and




1









 












	 	(d)	 	Notice of Guaranteed Delivery.





     As soon as is reasonably practical, you shall mail or cause to be mailed to each holder of
Common Stock at the close of business on the Record Date a Subscription Certificate evidencing the
Rights to which such holder is entitled, a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, a Prospectus and an
envelope addressed to you. Prior to mailing, the Company will provide you with blank Subscription
Certificates which you will prepare and issue in the names of holders of Common Stock of record at
the close of business on the Record Date and for the number of Rights to which they are entitled.
The Company will also provide you with a sufficient number of copies of each of the documents to be
mailed with the Subscription Certificates.




	4.	 	Subscription Procedure  —






	 	(a)	 	Upon your receipt prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date (by
mail or delivery), as Subscription Agent, of (i) any Subscription Certificate completed and
endorsed for exercise, as provided on the reverse side of the Subscription Certificate
(except as provided in paragraph 8 hereof), and (ii) payment in full of the Subscription
Price in U.S. funds by check, bank draft or money order payable at par (without deduction
for bank service charges or otherwise) to the order of American Stock Transfer & Trust
Company, you shall as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date, but after performing
the procedures described in subparagraphs (b) and (c) below, mail to the subscriber’s
registered address on the books of the Company certificates representing the securities
underlying each Unit duly subscribed for (pursuant to the Basic Subscription Right and the
Additional Subscription Privilege) and furnish a list of all such information to the
Company.
	 
	 	(b)	 	As soon as practicable after the Expiration Date you shall calculate the number of Units
to which each subscriber is entitled pursuant to the Additional Subscription Privilege. The
Additional Subscription Privilege may only be exercised by holders who subscribe to all the
Units that can be subscribed for under the Basic Subscription Right. The Units available
for additional subscriptions will be those that have not been subscribed and paid for
pursuant to the Basic Subscription Right (the “Remaining Units”). Where there are
sufficient Remaining Units to satisfy all additional subscriptions by holders exercising
their rights under the Additional Subscription Privilege, each holder shall be allotted the
number of Remaining Units subscribed for up to a maximum of 500,000 Remaining Units. If the
aggregate number of Units subscribed for under the Additional Subscription Privilege exceeds
the number of Remaining Units, the number of Remaining Units allotted to each participant in
the Additional Subscription Privilege shall be the product obtained by multiplying the
number of Remaining Units by a fraction of which the numerator is the number of Units
subscribed for by that participant under the Basic Subscription Right and the denominator is
the aggregate number of Units subscribed for under the Basic Subscription Right by all
participants who are exercising their Additional Subscription Privilege. However, no holder
shall be allocated more Remaining Units than such holder subscribed for. Any fractional
Unit to which persons exercising their Additional Subscription Privilege would otherwise be
entitled pursuant to such allocation shall be rounded to the next whole Unit.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Upon calculating the number of Units to which each subscriber is entitled pursuant to
the Additional Subscription Privilege and the amount overpaid, if any, by each subscriber,
you shall, as soon as practicable, furnish a list of all such information to the Company.

	 	(d)	 	Upon calculating the number of Units to which each subscriber is entitled pursuant to
the Additional Subscription Privilege and assuming payment for the additional Units
subscribed for has been delivered, you shall mail, as contemplated in subparagraph (a)
above, the certificates representing the additional securities which the subscriber has been
allotted. If a lesser number of Units is allotted to a subscriber under the Additional
Subscription Privilege than the subscriber has tendered payment for, you shall remit the
difference to the subscriber without interest or deduction at the same time as certificates
representing the securities allotted pursuant to the Additional Subscription Privilege are
mailed.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Funds received by you pursuant to the Basic Subscription Right and the Additional
Subscription Privilege shall be held by you in a segregated account. Upon mailing
certificates representing the securities and refunding subscribers for additional Units
subscribed for but not allocated, if any, you shall promptly remit to the Company all funds
received in payment of the Subscription Price for Units sold in the Rights Offering.






	5.	 	Defective Exercise of Rights; Lost Subscription Certificates — The Company shall have
the absolute right to reject any defective exercise of Rights or to waive any defect in
exercise. Unless requested to do so by the Company, you shall not be under any duty to give
notification to holders of Subscription Certificates of any defects or irregularities in
subscriptions. Subscriptions will not be deemed to have been made until any such defects or
irregularities have been cured or waived within such time as the Company shall determine. You
shall as soon as practicable return Subscription Certificates with the defects or
irregularities which have not been cured or waived to the holder of the Rights. If any
Subscription Certificate is alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, you should follow
the same procedures followed far lost stock certificates representing Common Stock you use in
your capacity as transfer agent for the Company’s Common Stock.
	 
	6.	 	Late Delivery —  If prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date
you receive (i) payment in full of the Subscription Price for the Units being subscribed for
and (ii) a guarantee notice substantially in the form of the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery
delivered with the Subscription Certificate, from a financial institution having an office or
correspondent in the United States, or a member firm of any registered United States national
securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. stating the
certificate number of the Subscription Certificate relating to the Rights, the name and
address of the exercising subscriber, the number of Rights represented by the Subscription
Certificate held by such exercising subscriber, the number of Units being subscribed for
pursuant to the Rights and guaranteeing the delivery to you of the Subscription Certificate
evidencing such Rights within three New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) trading days following
the date of the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, then the Rights may be exercised even though
the Subscription Certificate was not delivered to you prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the Expiration Date, provided that within three NYSE trading days following the date of the
Notice of Guaranteed Delivery you receive the properly completed Subscription Certificate
evidencing the Rights being exercised, with signatures guaranteed if required.
	 
	7.	 	Delivery — You shall deliver to the Company the exercised Subscription Certificates
in accordance with written directions received from the Company and shall deliver to the
subscribers who have duly exercised Rights at their registered addresses certificates representing
the securities subscribed for as instructed on the reverse side of the
Subscription Certificates.

shall thereafter be confirmed in writing, of (i) the number of Rights exercised on the day
covered by such daily notice, (ii) the number of Rights subject to guaranteed exercises on the

deliver to the Company a certificate setting forth the number of Rights exercised pursuant to
a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery and as to which Subscription Certificates have been timely
received. You shall also maintain and update a listing of holders who have fully or partially
exercised their Rights, holders who have transferred their Rights and their transferees, and
holders who have not exercised their Rights. You shall provide the Company or its designees
with such information compiled by you pursuant to this paragraph 9 as any of them shall
