EXHIBIT A TO STOCK OPTION GRANT NOTICE

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

     Pursuant to the Stock Option Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) to which this Stock
Option Agreement (this “Agreement”) is attached, AutoZone, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the
“Company”), has granted to Participant an option under the Company’s 2006 Stock Option Plan
(the “Plan”) to purchase the number of shares of Stock indicated in the Grant Notice.

ARTICLE I.

GENERAL

     1.1 Defined Terms. Wherever the following terms are used in this Agreement they
shall have the meanings specified below, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
Capitalized terms not specifically defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan and
the Grant Notice.

          (a) “Administrator” shall mean the Board or the Committee responsible for conducting
the general administration of the Plan in accordance with Article 8 of the Plan.

          (b) “Termination of Employment” shall mean the time when the employee-employer
relationship between Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary is terminated for any reason,
with or without cause, including, but not by way of limitation, a termination by resignation,
discharge, death, disability or retirement; but excluding terminations where there is a
simultaneous reemployment or continuing employment of Participant by the Company or any Subsidiary.
The Administrator, in its absolute discretion, shall determine the effect of all matters and
questions relating to Termination of Employment, including, but not by way of limitation, the
question of whether a particular leave of absence constitutes a Termination of Employment;
provided, however, that, if this Option is an Incentive Stock Option, unless otherwise determined
by the Administrator in its sole discretion, a leave of absence, change in status from an employee
to an independent contractor or other change in the employee-employer relationship shall constitute
a Termination of Employment if, and to the extent that, such leave of absence, change in status or
other change interrupts employment for purposes of Section 422(a)(2) of the Code and the then
applicable regulations and revenue rulings under said Section.

     1.2 Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The Option is subject to the terms and conditions
of the Plan which are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between
the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control.

ARTICLE II.

GRANT OF OPTION

     2.1 Grant of Option. In consideration of Participant’s past and/or continued
employment with the Company or a Subsidiary and for other good and valuable consideration,
effective as of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”), the
Company irrevocably grants to Participant the Option to purchase any part or all of an aggregate of
the number of shares of Stock set forth in the Grant Notice, upon the terms and conditions set
forth in the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement. The Option shall be a Non-Qualified Stock
Option or an Incentive Stock Option, as designated in the Grant Notice and, in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option, as permitted by law.

B-1

 

     2.2 Exercise Price. The exercise price of the shares of Stock subject to the Option
shall be as set forth in the Grant Notice, provided, however, that the price per share of the
shares of Stock subject to the Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a
share of Stock on the Grant Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Option is designated as
an Incentive Stock Option and Participant owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code)
more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any
“subsidiary corporation” of the Company or any “parent corporation” of the Company (each within the
meaning of Section 424 of the Code), the price per share of the shares of Stock subject to the
Option shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Grant Date.

     2.3 Consideration to the Company. In consideration of the grant of the Option by the
Company, Participant agrees to render faithful and efficient services to the Company and its
Subsidiaries, as applicable. Nothing in the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement shall confer
upon Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary or
shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which
rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of Participant at any
time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided
otherwise in a written agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and Participant.

ARTICLE III.

PERIOD OF EXERCISABILITY

     3.1 Commencement of Exercisability.

          (a) Subject to any limitations contained in this Stock Option Agreement, the Option shall
become vested and be exercisable in such amounts and at such times as are set forth in the Grant
Notice. Notwithstanding the exercise dates set forth in the Grant Notice, the Option shall become
immediately exercisable on the date of Participant’s death.

          (b) No portion of the Option which has not become vested and exercisable as of Participant’s
Termination of Employment shall thereafter become vested and exercisable.

     3.2 Duration of Exercisability. The installments provided for in the vesting schedule
set forth in the Grant Notice are cumulative. Each such installment which becomes vested and
exercisable pursuant to the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice shall remain vested and
exercisable until it becomes unexercisable pursuant to Section 3.3 below; provided, however, that
no Option which has not vested and become exercisable as of the date of a Participant’s Termination
of Service shall thereafter vest and become exercisable.

     3.3 Expiration of Option. The Option shall be forfeited and cancelled and may not be
exercised to any extent by anyone after the first to occur of the following events:

          (a) The tenth anniversary of the Grant Date;

          (b) If this Option is designated as an Incentive Stock Option and, at the time the Option was
granted, Participant owned (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code)
more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any
“subsidiary corporation” of the Company or any “parent corporation” of the Company (each within the
meaning of Section 424 of the Code), the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date;

B-2

 

          (c) The expiration of thirty days from the date of Participant’s Termination of Services
unless such Termination of Services occurs by reason of Participant’s death or termination by the
Company for cause;

          (d) The expiration of one year from the date of Participant’s Termination of Services by
reason of Participant’s death; and

          (e) The commencement of business on the date of Participant’s Termination of Services by the
Company for cause.

     3.4 Special Tax Consequences. Participant acknowledges that, to the extent that the
aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Option is granted) of all shares of
Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options, including the Option, are exercisable for the
first time by Participant in any calendar year exceeds $100,000, the Option and such other options
shall instead constitute Non-Qualified Stock Options to the extent necessary to comply with the
limitations imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code. Participant further acknowledges that the rule
set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking the Option and other Incentive Stock
Options into account in the order in which they were granted, as determined under Section 422(d) of
the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

ARTICLE IV.

EXERCISE OF OPTION

     4.1 Person Eligible to Exercise. Except as provided in Section 5.2(b) below,
during the lifetime of Participant, only Participant may exercise the Option or any portion
thereof. After the death of Participant, any exercisable portion of the Option may, prior to the
time when the Option becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3 above, be exercised by Participant’s
personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will
or under then-applicable laws of descent and distribution.

     4.2 Partial Exercise. Any exercisable portion of the Option or the entire Option, if
then wholly exercisable, may be exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to the time when
the Option or portion thereof becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3 above.

     4.3 Manner of Exercise. The Option, or any exercisable portion thereof, may be
exercised solely by delivery to the Secretary of the Company (or any third party administrator or
other person or entity designated by the Administrator) of each of the following prior to the time
when the Option or such portion thereof becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3 above:

          (a) An exercise notice in a form specified by the Administrator, stating that the Option or
portion thereof is thereby exercised, such notice complying with all applicable rules established
by the Administrator;

          (b) The receipt by the Company of full payment for the shares of Stock with respect to which
the Option or portion thereof is exercised, including payment of any applicable
withholding taxes, which may be in one or more of the forms of consideration permitted under
Section 4.4 below;

          (c) Any other written representations as may be required in the Administrator’s sole
discretion to evidence compliance with any applicable law, rule or regulation; and

B-3

 

          (d) If the Option or portion thereof is exercised pursuant to Section 4.1 above by any person
or persons other than Participant, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to
exercise the Option, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

     Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to specify all
conditions of the manner of exercise, which conditions may vary and which may be subject to change
from time to time in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

     4.4 Method of Payment. The Administrator shall determine the method(s) by which the
exercise price of the Option may be paid including, without limitation: (a) cash, (b) shares of
Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate exercise price of
the Option or exercised portion thereof, including shares of Stock that would otherwise be issuable
or transferable upon exercise of the Option, and/or (c) other property acceptable to the
Administrator (including through the delivery of a notice that the Participant has placed a market
sell order with a broker with respect to shares of Stock then issuable upon exercise of the Option,
and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale
to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price; provided that payment of such proceeds
is then made to the Company, at such time as may be required by the Company, but not later than the
settlement of such sale), and the methods by which shares of Stock shall be delivered or deemed to
be delivered to Participants.

     4.5 Conditions to Issuance of Share of Stock. The shares of Stock deliverable upon
the exercise of the Option, or any portion thereof, may be either previously authorized but
unissued shares of Stock or issued shares of Stock which have then been reacquired by the Company.
The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any shares of Stock purchased upon the
exercise of the Option or portion thereof prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions:

          (a) The admission of such shares of Stock to listing on all stock exchanges on which such
Stock is then listed;

          (b) The completion of any registration or other qualification of such shares of Stock under
any state or federal law or under rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
or of any other governmental regulatory body, which the Administrator shall, in its sole
discretion, deem necessary or advisable;

          (c) The obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental
agency which the Administrator shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or
advisable;

          (d) The receipt by the Company of full payment for such shares of Stock, including payment of
any applicable withholding tax, which may be in one or more of the forms of consideration permitted
under Section 4.4 above; and

          (e) The lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the Option as the
Administrator may from time to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience.

     4.6 Rights as Stockholder. The holder of the Option shall not be, nor have any of the
rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company in respect of any shares of Stock purchasable
upon the exercise of any part of the Option unless and until such shares of Stock shall have been
issued by the Company to such holder (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the
Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment will be made for a
dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the shares of Stock are
issued, except as provided in Section 7.1 of the Plan.

B-4

AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE AND SALE OF ASSETS

     This Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Customer Access Lines (this “Agreement”) is made and
entered into this ___ day of October 2006, between Trinsic Communications, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“Seller”), and CommX Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Buyer”).

RECITALS

     A. Seller is a competitive local exchange carrier. Seller has a line of business whereby it
utilizes a voice over Internet protocol (“VoIP”)-based network to provide voice and data services
to end users (the “Business”). The network includes aggregation devices placed on the customers’
premises called integrated access devices or “IADs” and pure packet nodes or “PPNs.” IADs are
installed on the premises of multi-line business customers. PPN’s are installed on the premises of
multi-unit dwellings where many single-line customers reside. Internally at Seller the VoIP
network is referred to as NGN or “next generation network. The Business operates in three
distinct locations: New York, Tampa and Parkcrest. Parkcrest is a condominium complex on Harbour
Island in Tampa. Although Parkcrest is within Tampa, for the purposes of this Agreement, the
Customers residing at Parkcrest are not a subset of and are separate and distinct from the Tampa
Customers.

     B. Buyer is a provider of voice application services over the internet.

     C. Seller desires to sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer desires to
buy, assume and accept from Seller, substantially all of Seller’s rights and obligations to operate
the Business, all as set forth hereinafter.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this
Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

PURCHASE AND SALE OF ASSETS

     1.1. Purchase and Sale of Transferred Assets. Upon the terms and subject to the
conditions hereinafter set forth, at the Transfers described in Article 3, Seller agrees to sell,
convey, transfer and assign to Buyer the “Transferred Assets,” and Buyer agrees to purchase and
receive such Transferred Assets from Seller. Moreover, Seller agrees to pay the Purchase Price (as
defined in Section 1.3 below) as set forth in Section 1.3. Seller shall retain the Excluded
Assets, including but not limited to all other lines of business and the service to customers of
such lines of business.

     1.2. Assumption of Obligations by Buyer. Buyer covenants and agrees that Buyer will
assume and agree to perform and discharge the Assumed Liabilities as and when due. Except for the
Assumed Liabilities, the parties agree that Buyer will not assume any other liability or obligation
of Seller, including any liability relating to the Excluded Assets. All such liabilities not
assumed by the Buyer pursuant to this Section 1.2 shall be retained by Seller and shall hereafter
be referred to as the “Retained Liabilities.”

 

 

     1.3. Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Transferred Assets is
$1,145,329 (the “Purchase Price”), allocated as set forth below, plus the assumption by Buyer of
the Assumed Liabilities.

	 	 	 	 	 
	             Transferred Asset	 	Amount	 
	Tampa Customer Contracts
	 	$	418,000	 
	New York Customer Contracts
	 	 	255,750	 
	Park Crest Customer Contracts
	 	 	27,500	 
	Equipment and other Assets
	 	 	444,079	 
	 
	 	 	 
	 
	 	 	 	 
	Total
	 	$	1,145,329	 
	 
	 	 	 

The Purchase Price shall be payable as set forth on Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated
herein. On each Payment Date, Buyer shall pay by check in good, immediately available funds for
guaranteed overnight delivery to Seller on the next business day, at Sellers address for notices
provided in Section 12.1, the sum set forth on Exhibit B (each a “Transaction Payment”).. Time is
an essential element of Buyer’s obligations under this Section 1.3. The Purchase Price and
Transaction Payments indicated on Exhibit B represent payment solely for the Transferred Assets and
are not inclusive of charges between Seller and Buyer for adjunct services provided in association
with Section 8.7 below and the Statement of Work referred to therein and attached hereto as Exhibit
A and incorporated herein.

If Buyer fails or refuses to make all or any portion of any Transaction Payment in accordance with
the procedure in the preceding paragraph Seller may prepare, and Buyer will sign and deliver to
Seller, a security agreement granting to Seller a security interest in the Transferred Assets not
paid for and file any appropriate Uniform Commercial Code forms it deems necessary or advisable in
order to secure payment of such unpaid Transferred Assets.

          1.3.1 Purchase Price Adjustment. The Purchase Price established in Section 1.3 above
is based upon estimated Customer counts. For Section 1.3, the number of Customers was estimated as
follows:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Tampa
	 	152 Customers
	 
	New York
	 	93 Customers
	 
	Parkcrest
	 	55 Customers

If on the day before end user notifications of service provider change are mailed to the Customers
in a given location the number of Customers in that location is less than 95% of the foregoing
estimated level for that location, then there will be a Purchase Price adjustment. The Purchase
Price adjustment will be calculated by multiplying the deficient number of Tampa or New York
Customers by $2,750 and Parkcrest Customers by $500. The Purchase Price adjustment will be divided
by the number of remaining Payment Dates to calculate a per Transaction Payment reduction to be
applied to the remaining Transaction Payments under

2

 

Exhibit B. There will be no Purchase Price adjustment for actual levels that exceed the estimated
levels.

          1.3.2. Service Penalty. If through no material fault of Seller, Buyer does not
complete the Transition of all Customers from any reliance upon Seller’s physical network
architecture by midnight, March 31, 2007, then Buyer will owe and pay the following support service
penalties for each subsequent date where Seller is provides network services because Transition has
not been completed:

	 	 	 	 	 
	April 1, 2007
	 	$	10,000	 
	 
	April 14, 2007
	 	$	50,000	 
	 
	April 28, 2007
	 	$	100,000	 
	 
	May 28, 2007
	 	$	100,000	 
	 
	28th of Any Subsequent Month
	 	$	100,000	 

     Such payments will be due within 5 days after the penalty is incurred.

     1.4. Prorations. All taxes imposed on a periodic basis (including personal property
taxes, ad valorem taxes, franchise fees or taxes and similar taxes and assessments with respect to
the Transferred Assets), shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time,
on the applicable Transfer Date. With respect to measurement periods that include (but do not end
on) the applicable Transfer Date (all such periods of time being hereinafter called “Proration
Periods”), Seller shall be responsible for the portion of any such liabilities that relates to the
portion of such Proration Period ending on the such Transfer Date, which shall be deemed to be the
amount of such liability for the entire Proration Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of days in the portion of the Proration Period ending on the Transfer Date, and
the denominator of which is the number of days in the Proration Period. Buyer shall be responsible
for the portion of any such liabilities that relates to the portion of such Proration Period
beginning after the Transfer Date, which shall be deemed to be the amount of such liability for the
entire Proration Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in
the portion of the Proration Period beginning on the day following the Transfer Date, and the
denominator of which is the number of days in the Proration Period. On the Transfer Date, Buyer
shall reimburse Seller, on this prorated basis, for Buyer’s portion of any such Proration Period
liabilities that have been paid before the Transfer Date. Seller shall reimburse Buyer, on this
prorated basis, for Seller’s portion of any such Proration Period liabilities paid on or after the
Transfer Date within five (5) business days of Seller’s receipt of an invoice (including reasonable
support for the calculation of the invoiced amount) from Buyer for such liabilities, but no earlier
than five (5) days prior to the due date for the payment of any such liability. To the extent that
Buyer or Seller has not reimbursed the other party for such a Proration Period liability for which
Buyer or Seller is responsible by the due date for such reimbursement, the amount of such
reimbursement payment shall bear simple interest at the rate of 8% per annum beginning on the due
date for payment of each such liability.

3

 

     1.5. Allocation of the Purchase Price for Tax Purposes. Seller may, in its
discretion, make an allocation (the “Allocation”) of the Purchase Price, the Assumed Liabilities
and other relevant items to the individual assets or classes of assets comprising the Transferred
Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the “Code”). Buyer agrees not knowingly to make any filing or take any position with any
Governmental Authority that is inconsistent with the Allocation.

     1.6. Transfer Taxes. Buyer shall bear and be responsible for any Transfer Taxes
imposed by any Governmental Authorities in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of the
Transferred Assets or otherwise on account of the Transactions, regardless of whether Buyer or
Seller is assessed therefor. Buyer shall pay such Transfer taxes directly to the taxing authorities
or, if requested by Seller, shall remit to Seller on the Transfer Date amounts sufficient to enable
Seller to pay any Transfer Taxes assessed against Seller. If Buyer pays any Transfer Taxes
directly, Buyer shall provide to Seller within ten (10) days of each such payment written evidence
of receipt of such payment by the appropriate taxing authority.

ARTICLE 2

ACCESS

     2.1. Access to Books and Records. Upon execution of this Agreement, Seller, upon
reasonable notice from Buyer, shall permit Buyer and its authorized representatives reasonable
access during customary business hours at Seller’s place of business to the books and records,
contracts, permits and other relevant data, information and things pertaining to the Transferred
Assets. Seller agrees to update and keep current all such information for the period prior to the
Transfer of the Transferred Assets.

     2.2. Access to Customer Data. Upon execution of this Agreement, Seller shall provide
Buyer with all customer information and data relating to the Transferred Assets as reasonably
requested by Buyer that pertains to the Transferred Assets. Upon the request of Buyer, Seller

     12.2. Waivers. No failure of a party to enforce a provision of this Agreement will be
construed as a general or a specific waiver of that provision, or of a party’s right to enforce
that provision, or of a party’s right to enforce any other provision of this Agreement. No waiver
of any breach of any covenant or other provision herein contained shall be deemed to be a waiver of
any preceding or succeeding breach, or of any other covenant or provision herein contained. No
extension of time for performance of any obligation or act shall be deemed to be an extension of
the time for performance of any other obligation or act.

     12.3. Payment of Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, each of the parties
shall pay all costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred by it in the negotiation and
preparation of this Agreement and in consummating and carrying out the Transactions, whether or not

Agreement are included only for purposes of convenience, and shall not affect the construction or
interpretation of any of its provisions.

     12.5. Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each

delivered a counterpart to the other party, this Agreement shall be binding and effective even

that no assignment shall be permitted except as provided for in this Agreement.

     12.7. Assignment. The rights and obligations of the parties to this Agreement or any
interest in this Agreement shall not be assigned, transferred, hypothecated, pledged or otherwise
disposed of without the prior written consent of the non-assigning party, which consent may be

prior consent of the other party, assign its rights under this Agreement to any Affiliate.

to the choice of law provisions of any jurisdiction).

     12.10. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held or deemed to
be invalid or unenforceable when applied to any person or circumstance, the remaining provisions of
this Agreement and the enforcement of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be
affected thereby, and each provision of this Agreement shall be enforced to the fullest extent
allowed by Law.

     12.11. Amendments. This Agreement may not be modified, changed, supplemented or
terminated, nor may any obligations hereunder be waived by a party, except by written instrument
signed by the party to be charged or by its agent duly authorized in writing or as otherwise
expressly permitted herein.

     12.12. No Construction. Each party hereto acknowledges that such party and its
counsel have reviewed this Agreement and participated in its drafting. This Agreement shall not be
construed against either party for having prepared it. Wherever from the context it appears
appropriate, each term stated in either the singular or the plural will include the singular and
the plural, and pronouns stated in the masculine, feminine or neuter gender will include the other
genders. Moreover, the term “or” is not exclusive. The words “Agreement,” “hereof,” “herein” and
“hereunder” and words of similar import referring to this Agreement refer to this contract as a
whole (as it may be amended, modified, restated, or supplemented), including any schedules,
exhibits, addenda, annexes and other documents incorporated by reference (as they may be amended,
modified, restated, or supplemented) and not to any particular provision of this contract.
Whenever the word “include,” “includes” or “including” is used in this Agreement, it will not be
limiting or exclusive and will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” All

extend the scope or intent of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing the parties agree that any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this
Agreement and those in the attached Exhibits A, B, and C shall be resolved in favor of the
provisions in the aforesaid Exhibits.
