Attention: Brett Messing, Chief Executive Officer
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This Agreement will confirm the results of our negotiations and our
mutual understanding regarding the transaction (the "Transaction") pursuant to
which IDT Corporation ("IDT") will acquire the Transferred Assets and assume the
Assumed Liabilities (each such term, as hereinafter defined) of PT-1
Communications Inc. ("PT-1"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Star
Telecommunications Inc. ("Star"), for a total purchase price of $1.00, on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
1. Definitive Agreements. It is the intention of the parties that this
Agreement shall be a binding and enforceable agreement with respect to the
matters described herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties intend to
enter into more complete documentation (the "Final Documentation") after the
date hereof which shall, among other things, modify the Transaction structure in
such manner as the parties may mutually agree in order to make such structure as
tax efficient as is practicable for all parties. Each of IDT and PT-1 shall
negotiate in good faith to cause the Final Documentation to be executed and
delivered by the parties as promptly as is practicable after the date hereof and
to reflect in all material terms the substantive provisions hereof. Upon the
execution and delivery of the Final Documentation, this Agreement shall be
deemed to be superseded in its entirety by the Final Documentation.
2. Transferred Assets. The "Transferred Assets" will include, without
limitations, all of the assets of PT-1 relating to its debit card business (the
"Business"), including, without limitation:
(a) the PT-1, PT1, PT-I and PTI brand names and all other trademarks,
copyrights, service marks, software, know-how and other intellectual
property owned by or used in the Business, and any and all derivative
forms thereof;
(b) all accounts receivable and other amounts owing to PT-1 (including,
without limitation, all prepaid expenses) with respect to the Business
as of the date upon which the Transaction is consummated (which date
is expected to occur on or about February 1, 2001; the "Closing
Date"); and
{PAGE}
(c) other assets material to the Business (including, without limitation,
intercompany agreements with Star, distributor agreements, and
non-compete agreements in favor of PT-1), except (i) the switches and
related switching infrastructure used in the Business and (ii) those
which IDT in its sole discretion elects not to acquire.
The Transferred Assets shall be sold, transferred, conveyed and assigned free
and clear of any and all liens, pledges, security interests, encumbrances and
all other adverse claims of any kind or nature whatsoever, other than the
Assumed Liabilities.
3. Assumed Liabilities. The "Assumed Liabilities" will include only the
deferred revenue (i.e., the unutilized minutes on phone cards then in
distribution) reflected on the balance sheet of PT-1 as of the Closing Date (as
hereinafter defined).
4. Use of Name. (a) PT-1 hereby agrees to, unconditionally, irrevocably
and in perpetuity, relinquish to IDT all rights to, and cease the use of, the
names "PT-1", "PT1", "PT-I", "PTI" and any and all derivative forms thereof, as
well as to the trademarks, tradenames and other intellectual property relating
to each of the debit cards distributed by PT-1 (including, without limitation,
New York Millionaires, Hola Mexico and PT-1 Phonecard).
(b) For a period of 6 months following the Closing Date, IDT shall
grant to Star a royalty-free, non-exclusive (and non-transferable) license to
use the PT-1 brand name solely in connection with the existing "dial-around"
business of PT-1; provided that PT-1 shall not take any action or permit to
exist with respect to its use of the PT-1 brand name any condition which could
impair the goodwill attached to such mark.
5. Employees and Facilities. (a) During the period between the date
hereof and the Closing Date, IDT shall review the existing employees of the
Business and shall designate to PT-1 which (if any) of such employees IDT
desires to hire. PT-1 shall be solely responsible for any liabilities or
obligations relating to employee, severance pay, post-employment or retiree
benefits or compensation arrangements (including, without limitation, any and
all liabilities that may arise under the WARN Act) with respect to (i) all
employees of the Business who IDT does not so elect to hire, and (ii) any such
employees which IDT makes an offer of employment but which do not accept such
employment with IDT.
(b) In the event that IDT so notifies PT-1 on or prior to the Closing
Date, PT-1 shall make available to IDT any facilities (or portions thereof)
utilized by PT-1 in the Business for the term requested by IDT (not to exceed
the term of PT-1's contractual rights on the date hereof) and at a price equal
to PT-1's actual direct cost (or the relevant pro rated portion thereof) for the
use of such facilities (or portions thereof); provided that, with respect to
