the form of Exhibit A hereto in the principal amount set forth opposite such Purchaser’s
name on Schedule 1 hereto (each as amended, restated, modified and/or supplemented from
time to time, a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”);

WHEREAS, CHIP wishes to issue to each Purchaser the number of shares of CHIP’s common stock,

herein.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises,
representations, warranties and covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

1. Agreement to Sell and Purchase. Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 3), the Companies shall sell to
each Purchaser, and each Purchaser shall purchase from the Companies, the applicable Note. The
sale of the Notes on the Closing Date shall be known as the “Offering.” The Notes will
mature on the Maturity Date (as defined in the Notes). Collectively, the Notes and the Closing
Shares are referred to as the “Securities.”

 

 

2. Fees and Closing Shares. On the Closing Date:

(a) CHIP will issue and deliver to each Purchaser the number of shares of Common Stock
set forth opposite its name on Schedule 2 in connection with the
Offering pursuant
to Section 1 hereof. All the representations, covenants, warranties, undertakings,
and indemnification, and other rights made or granted to or for the benefit of each Creditor
Party by the Companies, to the extent relevant to the Closing Shares, are hereby also made
and granted for the benefit of the holder of the Closing Shares, subject to Section 11.3.

(b) Subject to the terms of Section 2(c) below, the Companies shall jointly and
severally pay (i) to Valens Capital Management, LLC, the investment manager of the
Purchasers (“VCM”), a non-refundable payment in an amount equal to one and one half
percent (1.50%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus reasonable expenses
(including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the entering into of this
Agreement and the Related Agreements, plus expenses incurred in connection with each of VCM
and/or Purchasers’ due diligence review of the Companies and their Subsidiaries and all
other related matters (ii) to the Purchasers, a non-refundable payment in an aggregate
amount equal to one percent (1.00%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes; and
(iii) to the Purchasers, an advance prepayment discount deposit in an aggregate amount equal
to one percent (1.00%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, subject to rebate as
set forth in Section 1.3 of the Notes as in effect on the date hereof. Each of the
foregoing payments in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be deemed fully earned on the Closing Date
and shall not be subject to rebate or proration for any reason.

(c) The payments and the expenses referred to in the preceding clause (b) (net of
deposits previously paid by either Company) shall be paid at Closing (as defined below) out
of funds held pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (as defined below) and a disbursement letter
(the “Disbursement Letter”).

3. Closing, Delivery and Payment.

3.1 Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions herein, the closing of the
transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall take place on the date hereof, at
such time or place as the Companies and the Agent may mutually agree (such date is hereinafter
referred to as the “Closing Date”).

3.2 Delivery. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, at the Closing on the Closing Date,
the Companies will deliver to each Purchaser, among other things, the applicable Note and
certificates evidencing the Closing Shares, in form and substance acceptable to Agent, and such
Purchaser will deliver to the Companies, among other things, the amounts set forth opposite its
name in the Disbursement Letter by certified funds or wire transfer. Each Company hereby
acknowledges and agrees that each Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the applicable Note from

4. Representations and Warranties of the Company. Each Company hereby represents and
warrants to each Creditor Party as follows:

4.1 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. Such Company and each of its
Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization
or incorporation. Such Company and each of its Subsidiaries has the corporate, limited liability
company or partnership, as the case may be, power and authority to own and operate its properties
and assets and, insofar as it is or shall be a party thereto, to (1) execute and deliver (i) this
Agreement, (ii) the Notes to be issued in connection with this Agreement, (iii) the Master Security
Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Companies and the Agent (as amended, restated,
modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Master Security Agreement”), (iv) the
Stock Pledge Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Companies and the Agent (as amended,
restated, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Stock Pledge Agreement”),
(v) the Funds Escrow Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Companies, the Purchasers and
the escrow agent referred to therein, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto (as
amended, restated, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Escrow Agreement”),
(vi) the Intellectual Property Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Companies
and the Agent (as amended, restated, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the “IP
Security Agreement”) and (vii) all other documents, instruments and agreements entered into in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (the preceding clauses (ii)
through (vii), collectively, the “Related Agreements”); (2) issue and sell the Notes; (3)
issue the Closing Shares; and (4) carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the Related
Agreements and to carry on its business as presently conducted. Such Company and each of its
Subsidiaries is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing as a
foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, in all
jurisdictions in which the nature or location of its activities and of its properties (both owned
and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which failure to
do so has not, or could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect. “Material Adverse Effect” means any change, effect, event or
occurrence that has a material adverse effect on the assets, business, financial condition or
results of operations of either Company and its Subsidiaries, taken individually and as a whole;
provided, however, that no change, effect, event or occurrence to the extent
arising or resulting from any of the following, either alone or in combination, shall constitute or
be taken into account in determining whether there has been or will be, a Material Adverse Effect:
(i) general business or economic conditions not specific or peculiar to any Company, (ii) acts of
war or terrorism or natural disasters, (iii) catastrophic economic or significant regulatory or
political conditions or changes, (iv) the announcement or performance of this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby, including compliance with the covenants set forth herein, (v)
changes in any applicable
accounting regulations or principles or the interpretations thereof, (vi) changes in laws, or
(vii) changes in the price or trading volume of CHIP’s stock

4.2 Subsidiaries. Each active Subsidiary of each Company, the direct owner of such
Subsidiary and the direct owner’s percentage ownership thereof, is set forth on Schedule
4.2. For the purpose of this Agreement, a “Subsidiary” of any person or entity means
(i) a corporation or other entity whose shares of stock or other ownership interests having
ordinary voting power (other than stock or other ownership interests having such power only by
reason of the happening of a contingency) to elect a majority of the directors of such corporation,
or other persons or entities performing similar functions for such person or entity, are owned,
directly or indirectly, by such person or entity or (ii) a corporation or other entity in which
such person or entity owns, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the equity interests at such
time.

4.3 Capitalization; Voting Rights.

(a) The authorized capital stock of CHIP, as of the date hereof consists of 45,000,000
shares, of which 40,000,000 are shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share,
10,740,766 shares of which are issued and outstanding, and 5,000,000 are shares of preferred
stock, par value $0.001 per share of which no shares of preferred stock are issued and
outstanding. The authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of each Subsidiary of
CHIP is set forth on Schedule 4.3.

(b) The authorized capital stock of MARK, as of the date hereof consists of an
unlimited number of Common Shares and an unlimited number of Preferred Shares, both without
par value, of which there are issued and outstanding 10,265,178 of Common Shares. MARK has
no Subsidiaries.

(c) Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.3, other than: (i) those reserved for
issuance under either Company’s stock option plans; and (ii) those which may be granted
pursuant to this Agreement and the Related Agreements, there are no outstanding options,
warrants, rights (including conversion or preemptive rights and rights of first refusal),
proxy or stockholder agreements, or arrangements or agreements of any kind for the purchase
or acquisition from either Company of any of its securities. Except as disclosed on
Schedule 4.3, neither the offer, issuance or sale of any of the Notes, or the
issuance of any of the Closing Shares, nor the consummation of any transaction contemplated
hereby will result in a change in the price or number of any securities of either Company
outstanding, under anti-dilution or other similar provisions contained in or affecting any
such securities.

(d) Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.3, all issued and outstanding shares of
each Company’s common stock: (i) have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully
paid and non-assessable; and (ii) were issued in compliance with all applicable state and
federal laws concerning the issuance of securities.

(e) The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the shares of each
Company’s common stock are as stated in such Company’s Certificate or Articles of
Incorporation or Articles of Amalgamation, as applicable (the “Charter”). The
Closing Shares have been issued in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement and the
applicable Company’s Charter and have been validly issued, fully paid and are
non-assessable, and all Securities will be free of any liens or encumbrances;
provided, however, that the Securities may be subject to restrictions on
transfer under state and/or federal securities laws as set forth herein or as otherwise
required by such laws at the time a transfer is proposed.

4.4 Authorization; Binding Obligations. All corporate, partnership or limited
liability company, as the case may be, action on the part of each Company and each of its
Subsidiaries (including their respective officers and directors) necessary for the authorization of
this Agreement and the Related Agreements, the performance of all obligations of each Company and
its Subsidiaries hereunder and under the other Related Agreements at the Closing and, the
authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Notes and Closing Shares has been taken or will
be taken prior to the Closing. This Agreement and the Related Agreements, when executed and
delivered and to the extent it is a party thereto, will be valid and binding obligations of each
Company and each of its Subsidiaries, enforceable against each such person or entity in accordance
with their terms, except:

(a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights; and

(b) general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable or legal
remedies.

The sale of the Notes are not and will not be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first
refusal that have not been properly waived or complied with. The issuance of the Closing Shares is
not subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been properly waived
or complied with.

4.5 Liabilities; Solvency.

(a) Neither Company nor any of their Subsidiaries has any material liabilities, except
current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business and liabilities disclosed or
recorded in CHIP’s filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange
Act”) made prior to the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Exchange Act
Filings”), copies of which have been provided or made available to the Agent.

(b) On the Closing Date each Company is and will be, Solvent. For purposes of this
Section 4.5(b), “Solvent” means, with respect to a Company on a particular date,
that on such date (i) the fair value of the assets of such Company is
greater than the total amount of liabilities, including contingent liabilities, of such
Company; (ii) the present fair salable value of the assets of such Company is not less than
the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of such Company on its debts
as they become absolute and matured; (iii) such Company does not intend to, and does not
believe that it will, incur debts or liabilities beyond such Company’s ability to pay as
such debts and liabilities mature; and (iv) such Company is not engaged in a business or
transaction, and is not about to engage in a business or transaction, for which such
Company’s property would constitute an unreasonably small capital. The amount of contingent
liabilities (such as litigation, guaranties and pension plan liabilities) at any time shall
be computed as the amount that, in light of all the facts and circumstances existing at the
time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured
liability.

 

5

 

4.6 Agreements; Action. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.6 or as disclosed
in any Exchange Act Filing:

(a) There are no agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts, judgments, orders,
writs or decrees to which either Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which
it is bound which may involve: (i) obligations (contingent or otherwise) of, or payments to,
either Company or any of its Subsidiaries in excess of $250,000 (other than obligations of,
or payments to, either Company or any of its Subsidiaries arising from purchase or sale
agreements, contracts for services, marketing and advertising related agreements, etc.
entered into in the ordinary course of business); or (ii) the transfer or license of any
patent, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right to or from either Company or any
of its Subsidiaries (other than licenses arising from the purchase of “off the shelf” or
other standard products); or (iii) provisions restricting the development, manufacture or
distribution of either Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ material products or services;
or (iv) indemnification by either Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to
infringements of material proprietary rights.

(b) Since September 30, 2007 (the “Balance Sheet Date”) to the date hereof,
other than repayments of indebtedness by MARK to CHIP, dividends or distributions by MARK to
CHIP and/or the repayment of indebtedness by MARK to CHIP, neither Company nor any of their
Subsidiaries has: (i) declared or paid any dividends, or authorized or made any
distribution upon or with respect to any class or series of its capital stock; (ii) incurred
any indebtedness for money borrowed or any other liabilities (other than ordinary course
obligations) individually in excess of $150,000 or, in the case of indebtedness and/or
liabilities individually less than $150,000, in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate; (iii)
made any loans or advances in excess of $150,000, individually or $250,000 in the aggregate

agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts and proposed transactions
involving the same person or entity (including persons or entities either Company or
any Subsidiary of either Company has reason to believe are affiliated therewith) shall be
aggregated for the purpose of meeting the individual minimum dollar amounts of such
subsections.

(d) CHIP maintains disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”)
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by CHIP in its Exchange Act
Filings is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified
in the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and forms promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

(e) Each Company makes and keeps books, records, and accounts, that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of such Company’s
assets. Each Company maintains internal control over financial reporting (“Financial
Reporting Controls”) designed by, or under the supervision of, such Company’s principal
executive and principal financial officers, and effected by such Company’s board of
directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America (“GAAP”), including that:

(i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or
specific authorization;

(ii) unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of such Company’s assets
that could have a material effect on the financial statements are prevented or
timely detected;

 

6

 

(iii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with GAAP, and that such Company’s receipts and
expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of such Company’s
management and board of directors;

(iv) transactions are recorded as necessary to maintain accountability for
assets; and

(v) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets

Controls that is required to be disclosed in any of the Exchange Act Filings, except as so
disclosed.

Except as described above, or as set forth on Schedule 4.7, none of the officers, directors
or, to such Company’s Knowledge (as defined herein), key employees or stockholders of either

Subsidiaries, or any member of their immediate families, is, directly or indirectly, interested in
any material contract with either Company or any of its Subsidiaries and no agreements,

permission to use the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade
secrets, licenses, and other proprietary rights and processes necessary for its business as

of its Subsidiaries is bound, which affects its rights to own or use any Intellectual
Property in a material and adverse manner.

(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.10 hereto, the conduct of each Company’s
and each of its Subsidiaries’ business as now conducted, and as presently proposed to be

the valid Intellectual Property rights of others.

 

10

 

(c) Schedule 4.10 (as such schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to
time) sets forth a true and complete list of (i) all registrations and applications for
Intellectual Property owned by each Company and each of its Subsidiaries filed or issued by
any Intellectual Property registry and (ii) all Intellectual Property licenses under which

any of its Subsidiaries’ inventory, including licenses for standard software having an
annual maintenance fee of more than $50,000 (“Inbound Intellectual Property
Licenses”). None of such Inbound Intellectual Property Licenses are reasonably likely
to be construed as an assignment of the licensed Intellectual Property to such Company or
any of its Subsidiaries.

(d) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.10 hereto, there are no claims pending
or, to the best of each Company’s Knowledge, threatened and neither Company nor any of their
Subsidiaries has received any other communications alleging that either Company or any of
its Subsidiaries has infringed, diluted, misappropriated, or otherwise violated any
Intellectual Property rights of any other person or entity, nor is either Company or any of
its Subsidiaries aware of any basis therefore.

which it is bound or of any judgment, decree, order or writ, which violation or default, in the
case of this clause (y), has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or
in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery and performance of and
compliance with this Agreement and the Related Agreements to which it is a party, and the issuance
and sale of the Notes by the Companies and the other Securities by CHIP each pursuant hereto and
thereto, will not, with or without the passage of time or giving of notice, result (i) in any such
material violation, or be in conflict with or constitute a material default under any such term or
provision, (ii) in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of either Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or
non-renewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to either
Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties.

Material Adverse Effect. “Governmental Authority” means any nation or government, any

employment contract and consultant contract to which either Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a
party is valid and binding on such Company or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, and , to such
Company’s Knowledge, each other party thereto and is in full force and effect.

6.7 Taxes.

(a) Such Company and each of its Subsidiaries will promptly pay and discharge, or cause
to be paid and discharged, when due and payable, all taxes, assessments and governmental
charges or levies imposed upon the income, profits, property or business of such Company and
its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that any such tax, assessment, charge or levy need not

21

 

(b) All payments made by either Company under this Agreement or any Note shall be made
free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or
future Taxes (as defined below) now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or
assessed by any Governmental Authority, other than Excluded Taxes (as defined below). If
any Non-Excluded Taxes (as defined below) or Other Taxes (as defined below) are required to
be withheld from any amounts payable to any Creditor Party under this Agreement or any Note,
the amounts so payable to such Creditor Party shall be increased to the extent necessary to
yield to such Creditor Party (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes,
including those imposed on payments made pursuant to this paragraph (b) of this Section
6.7 or any such other amounts payable in this Agreement or any Note at the rates or in
the amounts specified herein or therein), an amount equal to the sum it would have received
had no such withholding or deductions been made provided, however, that neither Company
shall be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Creditor Party with respect to
any Non-Excluded Taxes that are directly attributable to such Creditor Party’s failure to
comply with the requirements of paragraph (e) of this Section 6.7.

(c) In addition, each Company shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(d) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by either Company as
promptly as possible thereafter, such Company shall send to the Agent for its own account or
for the account of the relevant Purchaser, as the case may be, a certified copy of an
original official receipt received by such Company showing payment thereof (or such other
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Agent). If either Company fails to pay any
Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to
remit to the Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, each
Company shall indemnify the Creditor Parties for any incremental taxes, interest or
penalties that may become payable by any Creditor Party as a result of any such failure.

(e) Each Purchaser (or its assignee) that is not a “United States Person” as defined in
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Purchaser”) shall deliver to the
Companies and the Agent two completed originals of an appropriate U.S. Internal Revenue
Service Form W-8, as applicable, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto,
properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Purchaser. Such forms shall be
delivered by each Non-U.S. Purchaser on or before the date it becomes a party to this
Agreement. In addition, each Non-U.S. Purchaser shall deliver such forms promptly upon the
obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Purchaser.
Each Non-U.S. Purchaser shall promptly notify the Companies at any time it determines that
it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the
Companies (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for
such purpose). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this paragraph (e), a Non-U.S. Purchaser shall not be required to deliver
any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Purchaser is not legally able to
deliver.

(f) The agreements in the preceding paragraphs (b), (c), (d), (e) and this paragraph
(f) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all
other amounts payable hereunder or thereunder or under any other Related Agreement.

defined):

measured by its overall net income and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes,
by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Creditor
Party is incorporated or organized or by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) in
which the principal place of management or applicable lending office of such Creditor Party is
located.

“Non-Excluded Taxes” means all Taxes other than (i) Excluded Taxes and (ii) Other
Taxes.

“Other Taxes” means any and all present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any
other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies arising from any payment made hereunder
or from the execution, delivery or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or
any other Related Agreement.

“Taxes” means any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts,
deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect
thereto.

6.8 Insurance. (i) Such Company shall bear the full risk of loss from any loss of
any nature whatsoever with respect to the Collateral (as defined in each of the Master Security
Agreement, the Stock Pledge Agreement and each other security agreement entered into by such
Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries for the benefit of the Creditor Parties) and such Company
and each of its Subsidiaries will, jointly and severally, bear the full risk of loss from any loss
of any nature whatsoever with respect to the assets pledged to the Agent, for the ratable benefit
of the Creditor Parties, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Master Security
Agreement). Furthermore, such Company will insure or cause the Collateral to be insured against
loss or damage by fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, theft, burglary, pilferage, loss in transit and
other risks customarily insured against by companies in similar business similarly situated as such
Company and its Subsidiaries including but not limited to workers compensation, public and product
liability and business interruption, and such other hazards in amounts and under insurance policies
and bonds by insurers consistent with current practice and reasonably acceptable to the Agent. All
premiums thereon shall be paid by such Company, the policies shall be delivered to the Agent if
requested by the Agent and each such policy shall be endorsed in the Agent’s name as an additional
insured and lender loss payee, with an appropriate loss
payable endorsement by each Company in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent. If
either Company or any of its Subsidiaries fails to obtain the insurance and in such amounts of
coverage as otherwise required pursuant to this Section 6.8, the Agent may procure such
insurance and the cost thereof shall be promptly reimbursed by the Companies and shall constitute
Obligations.

 

23

any act or neglect of either Company or any of their Subsidiaries and the insurer
will provide the Agent with no less than thirty (30) days notice prior of
cancellation;

assigned at all times to a first lien position until such time as all the
Obligations have been indefeasibly satisfied in full.

6.9 Intellectual Property. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall maintain in
full force and effect its existence, rights and franchises and all licenses and other rights to
Intellectual Property owned or possessed by it and reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct
of its business,

(a) Such Company and each of its Subsidiaries shall maintain in full force and effect
its existence, rights and franchises and all licenses and other rights to own or use
Intellectual Property including registrations and applications therefore, that are necessary
to the conduct of its business, as now conducted or as presently proposed to be conducted,
and shall not do any act or omit to do any act whereby any of such Intellectual Property may
lapse, or become abandoned, dedicated to the public, or unenforceable, or the Lien therein
in favor of the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Creditor Parties, would be adversely
affected,

(b) Such Company shall report to the Agent (i) the filing by such Company or any of its
Subsidiaries of any application to register a copyright no later than ten (10) days after

documents required to acknowledge, confirm, register, record or perfect the Lien in such
Intellectual Property. In addition, each Company and its Subsidiaries hereby authorize the
Agent to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule 4.10 to include any
registrations or applications for Intellectual Property inadvertently omitted from such
Schedule or are filed, registered, or acquired by either Company or any of their
Subsidiaries after the date hereof and agree to cooperate with the Agent in effecting any
such amendment to include such new items of Intellectual Property included in the
Collateral.

(c) Such Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, promptly upon the
reasonable request of the Agent, execute and deliver to the Agent any document or instrument
required to acknowledge, confirm, register, record, or perfect the
Lien of the Agent in any part of the Intellectual Property owned by such Company and/or
its Subsidiaries.

(d) Except with the prior written consent of the Agent, neither Company shall, and
neither Company shall allow any of its Subsidiaries to, sell, assign, transfer, license,
grant any option, or create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to Intellectual
Property, except for the Permitted Encumbrances; provided however that, by way of clarifying
example and not by way of limitation, the term “Permitted Encumbrances” expressly includes
licenses that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries grant in the ordinary course of
business to customers and others under Intellectual Property rights controlled by the
Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) (collectively, “Ordinary Outbound Licenses”), and
nothing in this Section 6.9(d) shall prevent either Company or its Subsidiaries from

provided, however, that neither Company (and no employee, representative or other
agent of such Company) shall disclose pursuant to this clause (ii) any other information that is

the identity of any party or any information that could lead another to determine the identity of
any party); and, provided, further, that neither Company will, and neither Company
will permit any of its Subsidiaries to, disclose any information to the extent that such disclosure
could reasonably be expected to result in a violation of any U.S. federal or state securities law
or similar law of another jurisdiction. Each Creditor Party shall be permitted to discuss,
distribute or otherwise transfer any non-public information of either Company and their
Subsidiaries in such Creditor Party’s possession now or in the future to potential or actual (i)

(c) become subject to (including, without limitation, by way of amendment to or
modification of) any agreement or instrument which by its terms would (under any
circumstances) restrict either Company’s or any of their Subsidiaries, right to perform the
provisions of this Agreement, any Related Agreement or any of the agreements contemplated
hereby or thereby;

(d) materially alter or change the scope of the business of either Company and its

Security Agreement) incurred by either Company that, individually or in the aggregate, does

Security Agreement (either by executing a counterpart thereof or an assumption or joinder agreement

to the Agent and (c) to the extent required by the Agent, satisfies each condition of this
Agreement and the Related Agreements as if such Subsidiary were a Subsidiary on the Closing Date.

6.13 Reissuance of Securities. CHIP agrees to reissue certificates representing the

(b) upon resale subject to an effective registration statement after such Securities
are registered under the Securities Act.

CHIP agrees to cooperate with the Purchasers in connection with all resales pursuant to Rule 144(d)

counsel receive reasonably requested representations from the applicable Purchasers and broker, if
any.

6.14 Opinion. On the Closing Date, the Companies will deliver to the Creditor Parties
an opinion reasonably acceptable to the Agent from the Companies’ external legal counsel.

6.15 Margin Stock. Neither Company will permit any of the proceeds of the Notes or

repay indebtedness incurred to “purchase” or “carry” “margin stock” within the
respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U of the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time to time hereafter in effect.

6.16 FIRPTA. Neither Company, nor any of their Subsidiaries, is a “United States real
property holding corporation” as such term is defined in Section 897(c)(2) of the Code and Treasury
Regulation Section 1.897-2 promulgated thereunder and neither Company nor any of their Subsidiaries
shall at any time take any action or otherwise acquire any interest in any asset or property to the
extent the effect of which shall cause such Company and/or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, to
be a “United States real property holding corporation” as such term is defined in Section 897(c)(2)
of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2 promulgated thereunder.

 

27

 

6.17 Intentionally Omitted.

6.18 Investor Relations/Public Relations. CHIP hereby agrees to incorporate into its
annual budget an amount of funds necessary to maintain a comprehensive investor relations and

its Subsidiaries.

6.19 Intentionally Omitted.

7. Covenants of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser covenants and agrees with the
Companies as follows:

7.1 Confidentiality. No Purchaser will disclose, nor will it include in any public
announcement, the name of either Company, unless expressly agreed to by such Company or unless and
until such disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and then only to the extent of
such requirement.

7.2 Non-Public Information. No Purchaser nor its officers, directors, employees,
affiliates, agents, stockholders and control persons, will effect any sales in the shares of the
Common Stock while in possession of material, non-public information regarding CHIP if such sales
would violate applicable securities law.

7.3 Limitation on Acquisition of Common Stock of CHIP. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Related Agreement or any document, instrument or
agreement entered into in connection with any other transactions entered into by a Purchaser and
either Company (and/or Subsidiaries or Affiliates of either Company), such Purchaser (and/or
Subsidiaries or Affiliates of such
Purchaser) shall not acquire stock in CHIP (including, without limitation, pursuant to a
contract to purchase, by exercising an option or warrant, by converting any other security or
instrument, by acquiring or exercising any other right to acquire, shares of stock or other
security convertible into shares of stock in CHIP, or otherwise, and such contracts, options,
warrants, conversion or other rights shall not be enforceable or exercisable) to the extent such
stock acquisition would cause any interest (including any original issue discount) payable by
either Company to a Non-U.S. Purchaser not to qualify as “portfolio interest” within the meaning of
Section 871(h)(2) or Section 881(c)(2) of the Code, by reason of Section 871(h)(3) or Section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, as applicable, taking into account the constructive ownership rules under
Section 871(h)(3)(C) of the Code (the “Stock Acquisition Limitation”). In addition to any
other remedies, if any, available to either Company, if a Purchaser exceeds the Stock Acquisition
Limitation, the provisions of Section 6.7(b) shall not apply to payments made to such Purchaser to
the extent any additional amounts to be paid thereunder are directly attributable to the applicable
Purchaser exceeding the Stock Acquisition Limitation. The Stock Acquisition Limitation shall
automatically become null and void with respect to a Purchaser, without any notice to the Company,
on and after the first date upon which such Lender and each of its Affiliates which qualify as a
Non-U.S. Purchaser no longer owns any indebtedness (including, without limitation, principal,
interest, fees and charges) of the Company.

 

28

 

8. Covenants of the Companies and the Purchasers Regarding Indemnification.

Party’s officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons, and principal stockholders,
against all claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations, losses or damages (including
reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon such Creditor Party which result,
arise out of or are based upon: (i) any misrepresentation by either Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or breach of any warranty by either Company or any of its Subsidiaries in this
Agreement, any other Related Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or thereto;
or (ii) any breach or default in performance by either Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any
covenant or undertaking to be performed by such Company or any of its Subsidiaries hereunder, under
any other Related Agreement or any other agreement entered into by such Company and/or any of its
Subsidiaries and such Creditor Party relating hereto or thereto.

8.2 Purchaser Indemnification. Each Purchaser Party agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless, reimburse and defend each Company and each of such Company’s officers, directors, agents,
affiliates, control persons and principal stockholders, at all times against any claims, costs,
expenses, liabilities, obligations, losses or damages (including reasonable legal fees) of any
nature, incurred by or imposed upon such Company which result, arise out of or are based upon: (i)
any misrepresentation by such Purchaser or breach of any warranty by such Purchaser in this
Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or any Related Agreement; or (ii) any
breach or default in performance by such Purchaser of any covenant or undertaking to be
performed by such Purchaser hereunder, under any other Related Agreement, or any other
agreement entered into by such Company and such Purchaser relating hereto or thereto.

9. Intentionally Omitted.

10. Registration Rights.

10.1 Registration Rights. In the event that a Purchaser or any assignee of a
Purchaser attempts to sell any of the Closing Shares after the date which is six (6) months from
the date such Closing Shares were issued to the Purchaser and is unable, for any reason, to do so
pursuant to an exemption to registration under Rule 144, the Company shall, upon demand of the
Purchaser or any assignee of the Closing Shares, file a registration statement within twenty-one
(21) days of such demand covering such Closing Shares and use its best efforts to have such
registration statement become effective within ninety (90) days of its filing (the “90 Day
Period”) and enter into a registration rights agreement in favor of the Purchaser and any and
all assignees of the Closing Shares in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchaser and such
assignees. The Company’s obligations under this Section 10.1 shall (i) no longer be
required if Purchaser or any assignee thereof is able to sell the Closing Shares pursuant to an
exemption to registration under Rule 144 prior to the expiration of the 90 Day Period and (ii)
terminate one year following the issuance of the Closing Shares so long as the Purchaser or such
assignee of the Purchaser is, at such date of determination, Rule 144 eligible without any volume
restriction. The failure of the Company to cause the registration statement to become effective
and to remain effective as provided herein shall not convey to any Purchaser or any assignee of the
Closing Shares any rights to the recovery of monetary and or liquidated damages.

 

29

 

10.2 Offering Restrictions. Except for stock or stock options granted to employees,
directors or consultants of either Company and its Subsidiaries (these exceptions hereinafter
referred to as the “Excepted Issuances”), neither the Company nor any of their Subsidiaries
will, prior to the repayment in full of the Notes, (x) enter into any equity line of credit
agreement or similar agreement or (y) issue, or enter into any agreement to issue, any securities
with a variable/floating conversion and/or pricing feature which are or could be (by conversion or
registration) (commonly known as “floorless convertible instruments”) free-trading securities (i.e.
common stock subject to a registration statement).

11. Miscellaneous.

11.1 Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER RELATED AGREEMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED

30

 

(c) THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH
APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL
SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT,
TORT, OR OTHERWISE BETWEEN ANY CREDITOR PARTY AND/OR EITHER COMPANY ARISING OUT OF,
CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THEM IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER RELATED AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED
HERETO OR THERETO.

11.2 Severability. Wherever possible each provision of this Agreement and the Related
Agreements shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Agreement or any Related Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid
or illegal under applicable law such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity or illegality, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or
the remaining provisions thereof which shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

11.3 Survival, Etc.. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein shall survive any investigation
made by any Creditor Party and the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereby to the extent
provided therein but shall terminate upon termination of this Agreement and be without further
force or effect upon payment of the Obligations (as defined in the Master Security Agreement). All
statements as to factual matters contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or
on behalf of either Company pursuant hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby
shall be deemed to be representations and warranties by such Company hereunder solely as of the
date of such certificate or instrument. All indemnities set forth herein shall survive the
execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Note and the making and repayment of
the Obligations for a period of twelve (12) months following the repayment of the Obligations;
provided, however, that upon payment of the Obligations in full as a result of the
sale of the Collateral (as defined in the Master Security Agreement), MARK shall be released from
any indemnity obligations that survive payment of the Obligations (nothing contained in the
foregoing proviso shall be deemed to be a consent to any such sale). All representations and
warranties of the Companies set forth herein, to the extent not specifically made as of a specific
date, shall be deemed made as of the date hereof.

 

31

 

11.4 Successors.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to
the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, heirs, executors and administrators of
the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each person or
entity which shall be a holder of the Securities from time to time, other than the holders
of Common Stock which has been sold by any Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective
registration statement. Upon notice to the Companies, each Purchaser may assign any or all
of the Obligations to any Person and, subject to acceptance and recordation thereof by the
Agent pursuant to Section 11.4(b) and receipt by the Agent of a copy of the
agreement or instrument pursuant to which such assignment is made (each such agreement or
instrument, an “Assignment Agreement”), any such assignee shall succeed to all of such
Purchaser’s rights with respect thereto; provided that no Purchaser shall be permitted to
assign its rights hereunder or under any Related Agreement to a direct competitor of either
Company unless an Event of Default (as defined in each Note) has occurred and is continuing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to any Company shall be required in the event that
such assignment is to a party that is an affiliate or under common control with a Purchaser.
Upon such assignment,
such Purchaser shall be released from all responsibility for the Collateral (as defined
in the Master Security Agreement, the Stock Pledge Agreement and each other security
agreement, mortgage, cash collateral deposit letter, pledge and other agreements which are
executed by either Company or any of its Subsidiaries in favor of any Creditor Party) to the
extent same is assigned to any transferee. Each Purchaser may from time to time sell or
otherwise grant participations in any of the Obligations (as defined in the Master Security
Agreement) and the holder of any such participation shall, subject to the terms of any
agreement between such Purchaser and such holder, be entitled to the same benefits as such
Purchaser with respect to any security for the Obligations (as defined in the Master
Security Agreement) in which such holder is a participant. Each Company agrees that each
such holder may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off and counterclaim with
respect to its participation in the Obligations (as defined in the Master Security
Agreement) as fully as though such Company were directly indebted to such holder in the
amount of such participation. Neither Company may assign any of its rights or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent. All of the terms, conditions,
promises, covenants, provisions and warranties of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit
of each of the undersigned, and shall bind the representatives, successors and permitted
assigns of each Company.

(b) The Agent shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, for this purpose only as agent
of the Companies, (i) a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and (ii) a book
entry system, within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation Sections 15f.103-1(c) and
1.871-14(c) (the “Register”), in which it will register the name and address of each
Purchaser and the name and address of each assignee of each Purchaser under this Agreement,
and the principal amount of, and stated interest on, the Notes owing to each such Purchaser
and assignee pursuant to the terms hereof and each Assignment Agreement. The right, title
and interest of the Purchasers and their assignees in and to such Notes shall be
transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register, and no assignment thereof
shall be effective until recorded therein. Each Company and each Creditor Party shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Purchaser pursuant to the terms
hereof as a Purchaser and owner of an interest in the Obligations hereunder for all purposes
of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary or any notation of ownership or
other writing or any Note. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Companies
or any Purchaser, at any reasonable time and from time to time, upon reasonable prior
notice.

 

32

 

11.5 Entire Agreement; Maximum Interest. This Agreement, the Related Agreements, the
exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto
constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the
subjects hereof and no party shall be liable or bound to any other in any manner by any
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements except as specifically set forth herein and
therein. Nothing contained in this Agreement, any Related Agreement or in any document referred to
herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a
rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. In
the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder
exceed the maximum rate permitted by such law, any payments in
excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Companies to the
Purchasers and thus refunded to the Companies. Interest and payments shall be computed on the
basis of actual days elapsed in a year of 360 days. Each rate of interest in this Agreement
expressed as an annual rate of interest for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), shall be
such rate multiplied by 365 (or, where the period for which the interest is being calculated
includes February 29th, 366) and divided by 360.

11.6 Amendment and Waiver.

(a) This Agreement may be amended or modified only upon the written consent of the
Companies and the Agent.

(b) The obligations of the Companies and the rights of the Creditor Parties under this
Agreement may be waived only with the written consent of the Agent.

(c) The obligations of the Creditor Parties and the rights of the Companies under this
Agreement may be waived only with the written consent of the Companies.

11.7 Delays or Omissions. It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any
right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach, default or noncompliance by another
party under this Agreement or the Related Agreements, shall impair any such right, power or remedy,
nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any
acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter
occurring. All remedies, either under this Agreement or the Related Agreements, by law or
otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

 

33

 

11.8 Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder, under the Master Security
Agreement, the Stock Pledge Agreement or the IP Security Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
deemed effectively given:

(a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified;

recipient, if not, then on the next business day;

shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all fees, costs and expenses of enforcing any

34

 

11.10 Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this
Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this
Agreement.

11.11 Signatures; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or
electronic signatures and in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but
all of which together shall constitute one agreement.

11.12 Broker’s Fees. Except as set forth on Schedule 11.12 hereof, each party
hereto represents and warrants that no agent, broker, investment banker, person or firm acting on
behalf of or under the authority of such party hereto is or will be entitled to any broker’s or
finder’s fee or any other commission directly or indirectly in connection with the transactions
contemplated herein. Each party hereto further agrees to indemnify each other party for any
claims, losses or expenses incurred by such other party as a result of the representation in this
Section 11.12 being untrue.

11.13 Construction. Each party acknowledges that its legal counsel participated in
the preparation of this Agreement and the Related Agreements and, therefore, stipulates that the
rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
applied in the interpretation of this Agreement or any Related Agreement to favor any party against
the other.

11.14 Joint and Several Obligations.

(a) All obligations and liabilities of each Company to each Creditor Party (the
“Obligations”) shall be joint and several, and such obligations and liabilities on
the part of the Companies shall in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and
forbearance granted by the Creditor Parties to any Company, failure of the Creditor Parties
to give either Company any notice, any failure of the Creditor Parties to pursue to preserve
its rights against either Company, the release by the Agent of any collateral now or
thereafter acquired from either Company, and such agreement by either Company to pay upon
any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected by prior recourse by any
Creditor Party to either Company or any collateral for such Obligations or the lack thereof.

(b) Each Company expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement,
indemnity, exoneration, contribution or any other claim which such Company may now or
hereafter have against the other or other person or entity directly or contingently liable
for the Obligations, or against or with respect to any other’s property (including, without
limitation, any property which is collateral for the Obligations), arising from the
existence or performance of this Agreement, until all Obligations have been indefeasibly
paid in full and this Agreement has been irrevocably terminated.

 

35

 

(c) Each Company represents and warrants to each Creditor Party that (i) such Companies
have one or more common shareholders, directors and officers, (ii) the businesses and
corporate activities of the Companies are closely related to, and substantially benefit, the
business and corporate activities of the Companies, (iii) the financial and other operations
of the Companies are performed on a combined basis as if the Companies constituted a
consolidated corporate group and (iv) the Companies will receive a substantial economic
benefit from entering into this Agreement and will receive a substantial economic benefit
from all amounts advanced by any Purchaser to either
Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case, whether
or not such amount is used directly by such Company.

11.15 Agency. Each Purchaser has pursuant to an Administrative and Collateral Agency
Agreement designated and appointed the Agent as the administrative and collateral agent of such
Purchaser under this Agreement and the Related Agreements.

11.16 Judgment Currency. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment
against either Company in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any
other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this section referred to as the
“Judgment Currency”) an amount due under this Agreement in any currency (the
“Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be
made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the business day immediately preceding (a) the date of
actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the
courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date,
or (b) the date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts
of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this
section being hereinafter in this section referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).
If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in the preceding
paragraph, there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion
Date and the date of actual receipt of the amount due in immediately available funds, the Companies
shall pay, on a joint and several basis, such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a
lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment
Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce
the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the
Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing
on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from the Companies under this section shall be due
as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due
under or in respect of this Agreement.

11.17 Tool Hound Product Line. Mark shall be permitted to sell its “Tool Hound”
product line and assets reasonably related thereto, provided, however, in the event net proceeds
therefrom exceed $150,000, all such net proceeds shall be applied to the Obligations.

Exhibit 10.2

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE
SECURITIES LAWS. THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE
ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THIS NOTE UNDER SAID ACT AND ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR (B) AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS.

THIS NOTE IS REGISTERED WITH THE AGENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 11.4(B) OF THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (AS
DEFINED BELOW). TRANSFER OF ALL OR ANY PORTION OF THIS NOTE IS PERMITTED SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS
SET FORTH IN SUCH SECTION 11.4(B) WHICH REQUIRE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THAT NO TRANSFER IS EFFECTIVE
UNTIL THE TRANSFEREE IS REFLECTED AS SUCH ON THE REGISTRY MAINTAINED WITH THE AGENT PURSUANT TO
SUCH SECTION 11.4(B).

SECURED TERM NOTE

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, VERICHIP CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“CHIP”), XMARK
CORPORATION, a Canada corporation (“MARK” and together with CHIP, each a “Company”
and collectively the “Companies”), hereby, jointly and severally, promise to pay to VALENS
OFFSHORE SPV II, CORP. or its registered assigns or successors (as applicable, the “Holder”) in
interest, the sum of Eight Million Dollars of the United States (U.S. $8,000,000), together with
any accrued and unpaid interest hereon, on March 31, 2009 (the “Maturity Date”) if not sooner
indefeasibly paid in full.

Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such
terms in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as amended,
restated, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”) among the
Companies, the Holder, each other Purchaser that becomes a party thereto and LV Administrative
Services, Inc., as administrative and collateral agent for the Purchasers (the “Agent” together
with the Purchasers, collectively, the “Creditor Parties”).

The following terms shall apply to this Secured Term Note (this “Note”):

ARTICLE I

CONTRACT RATE AND AMORTIZATION

1.1 Contract Rate. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 3.9, interest payable on the
outstanding principal amount of this Note (the “Principal Amount”) shall accrue at a rate per annum
equal to twelve percent (12%) (the “Contract Rate”). Interest shall be (i) calculated on the basis
of a 360 day year, and (ii) payable monthly, in arrears, commencing on April 1, 2008, on the first
business day of each consecutive calendar month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date,
and on the Maturity Date, whether by acceleration or otherwise. The Contract Rate expressed as an
annual rate of interest for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) shall be such rate multiplied
by 365 (or, where the period for which the interest is being calculated includes February 29th,
366) and divided by 360.

 

 

 

1.2 Principal Payments. The entire outstanding principal balance under this Note
together with any accrued and unpaid interest and any and all other unpaid amounts which are then
owing by the Companies to the Holder under this Note shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

1.3 Optional Redemption. Subject to Section 1.4, the Companies may prepay
this Note at any time in full (“Optional Redemption”) without penalty or premium by paying to the
Holder a sum of money equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Principal Amount outstanding at
such time together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued
or payable to the Holder arising under this Note (including Section 1.5), the Purchase
Agreement or any other Related Agreement (the “Redemption Amount”). The Companies shall deliver to
the Holder a written notice of redemption (the “Notice of Redemption”) specifying than an Optional
Redemption will occur within seven (7) business days after the date of delivery of the Notice of
Redemption (the “Redemption Period”). On or before the expiration of the Redemption Period, the
Redemption Amount must be paid in good funds to the Holder. In the event the Companies fail to pay
the Redemption Amount as set forth herein, then such Redemption Notice will be null and void. In
the event that the Redemption Amount is paid to the Holder within six (6) months of the date of
issue of this Note, upon receipt in full of the Redemption Amount in good funds, the Holder will
rebate to the Companies fifty percent (50%) of any fees it received from the Company on the date of
issue of this Note. If any Notes issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in addition to this
Note, are outstanding (collectively, the “Outstanding Notes”) and the Companies pursuant to this
Section 1.3 elects to make an Optional Redemption, then the Companies shall take the same
action with respect to all Outstanding Notes and make such payments to all holders of Outstanding
Notes on a pro rata basis based upon the Redemption Amount of each Outstanding Note.

1.4 Mandatory Prepayments. Upon receipt by any Company or any of its Subsidiaries of
proceeds arising from a sale by any Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any of its property or
assets (other than sales of assets permitted by the Master Security Agreement or the Purchase
Agreement), the Companies shall immediately pay or cause to be paid to the Holder an amount equal
to the lesser of (x) 100% of the net proceeds of such sale and (y) the outstanding principal amount
of the Obligations. If the Companies are required to make a mandatory prepayment pursuant to this
Section 1.4, then the Companies shall take the same action with respect to all Outstanding
Notes and make such payments to all holders of Outstanding Notes on a pro rata basis based upon the
Principal Amount of each Outstanding Note. The foregoing shall not be deemed to be a consent by
any Creditor Party to any such sale transaction to the extent that such consent is required from
any Creditor Party pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the Related Agreements.

1.5 Exit Fee. Upon any repayment or prepayment of all amounts outstanding under this
Note including, without limitation, following acceleration of all amounts due and owing under this
Note as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Companies shall, jointly and
severally, pay the Holder an exit fee equal to (x) U.S. $120,000 if such amounts are paid prior to
the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof and (y) U.S. $240,000 if such amounts are paid on
or after the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof.

ARTICLE II

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

2.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following events set forth in
this Section 2.1 shall constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”) hereunder:

(a) Any Company shall fail to pay when due any installment of principal, interest or other
invoiced fees hereon in accordance herewith, or any Company fails to pay any of the other
Obligations (under and as defined in the Master Security Agreement) when due, and, in any such
case, such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) business days following the date upon
which any such payment was due. For purposes herein, “invoiced fees” shall mean fees set forth on
those regularly scheduled monthly invoices received by any Company from the Holder or Agent;

(b) Any Company or any of its Subsidiaries breaches any covenant or any other term or
condition of this Note in any material respect and such breach, if subject to cure, continues for a
period of twenty (20) days after the occurrence thereof.

(c) Any material representation or warranty made or furnished by any Company or any of its
Subsidiaries in this Note, the Purchase Agreement or any other Related Agreement (other than the
Registration Rights Agreement) shall at any time be false or misleading in any material respect on

3.13 Judgment Currency. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment
against the Companies in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any
other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this section referred to as the “Judgment
Currency”) an amount due under this Note in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the
Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate (as hereinafter defined)
prevailing on the business day immediately preceding (a) the date of actual payment of the amount
due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other
jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or (b) the date on
which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other
jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this section
being hereinafter in this section referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in the
preceding paragraph, there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment
Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt of the amount due in immediately available funds,
the Companies shall pay, on a joint and several basis, such adjusted amount as may be necessary to
ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the Exchange
Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which
could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or
judicial order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from
the Companies under this section shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by
judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Note. “Exchange
Rate” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into another currency pursuant
to this Section 3.13, the relevant exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on
the relevant date of calculation.
