WHEREAS, the Parties acknowledge that Haberer has not admitted any liability in this or any other matter, whatsoever. The Parties further acknowledge that this has been a contested matter in all respects and that the settlement of this matter is based primarily upon economic considerations.

The Installment Payments: (a) will be in the form of a Wire Transfer to Insight pursuant to the wire instructions specified in Schedule A hereto; PROVIDED THAT the first payment that is due within 30 (thirty) days of the signing of this agreement shall be in the form of a Wire Transfer to Nicholas P. Iavarone, an attorney for the Insight Parties, pursuant to the wire instructions specified in Schedule B, who shall hold such funds until an order of the dismissal of the case is entered on the court docket before forwarding the Funds to Insight. Haberer reserves the right to pre-pay any or all of the Installment Payments, without penalty or further credit, and shall wire the payments through a third-party entity unrelated to him, which provides services for sending money abroad.
2. Dismissal of Case. Within ten (10) calendar days of the Effective Date of this
Agreement, the Insight Parties shall file a dismissal with prejudice of all claims in the Case against Haberer, including all claims for costs, pre- and post-judgment interest, all attorney's fees, and all damages and relief which could be awarded in a final judgment entered in this case, including punitive damages (the "Dismissal") in the form annexed hereto as "Exhibit A" and incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

Failure to timely cure the default shall cause the defaulting Party to be in breach of this Agreement ("Breach").
5. Remedies.
a. The Parties agree that the dismissal of the action is an essential term of this Agreement. Therefore, upon the occurrence of a Breach by the Insight Parties of section 2 above, this Agreement shall become null, void and unenforceable, and the Parties shall be in the same position as if this Agreement had never been entered.

6. Agreed Judgment. Contemporaneous with signing this Agreement, Haberer shall execute and deliver an Agreed Judgment ("Judgment"), in the form annexed hereto as "Exhibit B", which Judgment is incorporated into this Agreement herein by reference, which Judgment will be held in escrow by counsel for Insight pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

The Parties agree that under FRE Rule 408, all statements, including, but not limited to, any suggestions, admissions, proposals, opinions and presentations, made during the course of the settlement negotiations are privileged settlement discussions, are made without prejudice to any party's legal position, and are non-discoverable and inadmissible for any purpose in any pending or future legal or administrative proceeding between the Parties or on behalf of or against third parties. No. aspect of any communications or documents exchanged, described, identified, or relied upon during, or generated as a result of, the settlement negotiations, shall be disclosed to any third party, directly or indirectly, or offered or admitted into evidence for any purpose at any proceeding, or inquired or testified about at any deposition in any pending or future litigation or arbitration between or among any of the Parties, except as set forth in this Agreement.
c. Breach of Confidentiality and Damages.

Any Party breaching this provision shall be liable for and shall indemnify the non-breaching party for all costs, expenses, liabilities, and fees, including attorney's fees, which may be incurred as a result of such breach.

23. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the parties hereto and fully supersedes any and all prior agreements, or understandings between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof.
24. No. Assignment. The Insight Parties and Haberer warrant and represent to each other that they neither have made, suffered to be made, nor will make any assignment or transfer of any claims, actions, causes of actions, demands, debts, liens, contracts, agreements, promises, representations, torts, damages, costs, attorneys' fees, monies due on accounts, obligations, judgments or liabilities released by this Agreement, and that the Insight Parties and Haberer are the sole and absolute legal and equitable owners of all claims released under this Agreement or pursuant to any release to be issued under this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto represents and warrants that they have the authority to enter into this Agreement.
25. Counterparts. The Insight Parties and Haberer agree that this Agreement may be executed in counterparts and will be valid in electronic (email) form and it is the intent of the Parties that a copy of this Agreement signed by the Parties will be fully enforceable against that Party.
