immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to
receive the number of fully paid, non assessable shares of Integrated Media
Common Stock issuable to the persons set out in Exhibit A hereto (the “Exchange
Ratio”).
(b) Shares
of Integrated Media Common Stock to be issued to holders of TeleChem Shares
pursuant to Section 2.06(a) is referred to as the “Merger
Consideration.” If between the date of this Agreement and the
Effective Time, any TeleChem Shares held by a TeleChem stockholder shall be

adjusted to the extent appropriate to reflect such transfer of
shares.
(c) In
any event, if between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the
outstanding shares of Integrated Media Common Stock or TeleChem Shares shall
have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by
reason of any declared or completed stock dividend, subdivision,
reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares,
the Merger Consideration shall be correspondingly adjusted to the extent
appropriate to reflect such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification,
recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares. Upon
surrender of the certificate(s) representing TeleChem Shares in accordance with
Section 2.07, such holder of TeleChem Shares shall be entitled to receive the
Merger Consideration.
(d) From
and after the Effective Time, all TeleChem Shares shall no longer be outstanding
and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and
each certificate previously representing any such interests shall thereafter
represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration into which such TeleChem
Shares were converted in the Merger, upon surrender of the certificate(s)
representing such interests in accordance with Section
2.07. Certificates previously representing shares of TeleChem Shares
shall be exchanged for the Merger Consideration upon the surrender of such
certificates in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.07, without
interest.

TeleChem Shares owned by Integrated Media, Merger Sub or any direct or indirect
wholly owned subsidiary of Integrated Media immediately prior to the Effective

payment shall be made with respect thereto.
(f) Each
share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and

(a) At
the Closing, each holder of record of a certificate or certificates (the
“Certificates”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented
Outstanding TeleChem Shares shall tender such Certificates to Integrated Media
or its designated transfer or exchange agent with such other documents as
Integrated Media may reasonably request, including a stock
power. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to Integrated
Media together with such duly executed documents as may be required, the holder
of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger
Consideration which such holder has the right to receive in respect of TeleChem
Shares formerly represented by such Certificates, together with any dividends or
other distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section
2.07(b). The surrendered Certificates shall then be marked
canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of TeleChem Shares

Consideration may be paid in accordance with Article 2 to the transferee if the
Certificates representing such shares of TeleChem Shares are presented to
Integrated Media, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect
such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been
paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.07(a), each
Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent
only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration, and any
dividends or other distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to
Section 2.07(b). No interest shall be paid on the Merger
Consideration.
(b)
No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time
with respect to Integrated Media Common Stock with a record date after the
Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with
respect to the shares of Integrated Media Common Stock evidenced thereby until
the holder of such Certificate shall surrender such
Certificate. Subject to the effect of applicable laws, following
surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the holder of such
Certificate, in addition to the shares of Integrated Media Common Stock as
provided in Section 2.07(a), without interest, the amount of dividends or other
distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with
respect to the whole shares of Integrated Media Common Stock evidenced by such
Certificate. There shall be paid to the holder of the certificates
representing whole shares of Integrated Media Common Stock issued in exchange
therefor, without interest: (i) promptly, the amount of dividends or other
distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with
respect to such whole shares of Integrated Media Common Stock, and (ii) at the
appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions, with a
record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date
occurring after surrender, payable with respect to such whole shares of
Integrated Media Common Stock.
(c) The
Merger Consideration issued or paid upon conversion of the Outstanding TeleChem
Shares in accordance with the terms hereof (including any cash paid or other
distributions pursuant to Sections 2.07(b)) shall be deemed to have been issued
or paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such TeleChem
Shares.
(d) Neither
Integrated Media nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to TeleChem for
any Merger Consideration (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto)
which remains undistributed to the holders of TeleChem Shares for one year after
the Effective Time and is delivered to a public official pursuant to any
applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.
(e) If
any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an
affidavit of that fact by the TeleChem stockholder claiming such Certificate to
be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Integrated Media, the
posting by such TeleChem stockholder of a bond in such reasonable amount as the
Integrated Media may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made
against it with respect to such Certificate, Integrated Media will issue in
exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger
Consideration, and unpaid dividends and distributions on the Merger
Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this
Agreement.
(f) No
certificates or scrip evidencing fractional shares of Integrated Media Common
Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, but in
lieu thereof each stockholder of TeleChem who would otherwise be entitled to
receive a fraction of a share of Integrated Media Common Stock, after
aggregating all fractional shares of Integrated Media Common Stock which such
holder would be entitled to receive under Section 2.06, shall receive the next
larger number of whole shares of Integrated Media Common Stock to which such
holder would otherwise be entitled.
Section 2.08. Stock
Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock
transfer books of TeleChem shall be closed and there shall be no further
registration of transfers of shares of TeleChem Shares thereafter on the records
of TeleChem. On or after the Effective Time, any Certificates
presented to Integrated Media for any reason shall be converted into the Merger
Consideration, and any dividends or other distributions to which they are
entitled pursuant to Section 2.07(b) in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

Shares. TeleChem Shares that have not been voted for
adoption of the merger and with respect to which dissenter’s rights have been
properly demanded in accordance with Section 262 of the Delaware Law
(“Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into the right to receive the
Merger Consideration at or after the Effective Time unless and until the holder
of such shares withdraws his demand for dissenter’s rights or becomes ineligible
of dissenter’s rights. If a holder of Dissenting Shares withdraws his
demand for dissenter’s rights or becomes ineligible for dissenter’s rights,
then, as of the Effective Time or the occurrence of such event, whichever later

Proposal, provided, however, that, the foregoing shall not prohibit Integrated
Media from furnishing information to or entering into discussions or
negotiations with, any Person that makes an unsolicited bona fide proposal to
enter into a business combination with Integrated Media pursuant to an
Acquisition Proposal which the board of directors of Integrated Media (or any
committee thereof considering such proposal) in good faith determines is
reasonably likely to be more favorable to the stockholders of Integrated Media
than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (a “Superior Proposal”), so
long as:
(i) prior
to furnishing any information to, or entering into discussions or negotiations
with such a Person, Integrated Media provides twenty- four (24) hours’ advance
written notice to TeleChem to the effect that it is furnishing information to,
or entering into substantive discussions or negotiations with, a Person from
whom Integrated Media shall have received an executed confidentiality agreement
in form and substance satisfactory to TeleChem prior to furnishing such
information;
(ii) such
notice shall include the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal or
any agreement proposed by, or any information supplied to, any such
Person;
(iii) prior
to furnishing any nonpublic information to any such Person, Integrated Media
furnishes such nonpublic information to TeleChem (to the extent that such
nonpublic information has not been previously furnished by Integrated Media to

(iv) neither
Integrated Media nor any of its subsidiaries nor any of the Integrated Media
Representatives shall have violated any of the restrictions set forth in this
Section 5.07;
(v) such
unsolicited bona fide proposal relating to a Superior Proposal is
made by a third party that the board of directors of Integrated Media
(or any committee thereof considering such proposal) determines in
good faith has the good faith intent to proceed with negotiations to
consider such Superior Proposal;
(vi) the
board of directors of Integrated Media (or any committee thereof
considering such proposal), after duly considering the written advice
of outside legal counsel to Integrated Media, determines in good faith
that such action is required for the Board of Directors of Integrated
Media to comply with its fiduciary duties to stockholders imposed by
applicable law; and
(vii) Integrated
Media keeps TeleChem informed in all material respects of the status
and terms of any such negotiations or discussions (including without
limitation the identity of the Person with whom such negotiations or
discussions are being held) and provides TeleChem copies of such
written proposals and any amendments or revisions thereto
or correspondence related thereto.
(b) Integrated
Media shall notify TeleChem orally and in writing of the fact that it has
received inquiries, offers or proposals that it reasonably believes to be bona
fide with respect to an Acquisition Proposal within twenty-four (24) hours after
the receipt thereof. Integrated Media will immediately cease and
cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with
any other Person that have been conducted heretofore with respect to a potential
Acquisition Proposal. Integrated Media agrees to inform the
Integrated Media Representatives of the obligations undertaken in this Section
5.07; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent
the board of directors of Integrated Media from referring any third-party to
this Section 5.07.
(c) Integrated
Media agrees not to release or permit the release of any Person from, or to
waive or permit the waiver of any provision of, any confidentiality,
“standstill” or similar agreement to which Integrated Media or any of its
subsidiaries is a party, and will use its best efforts to enforce or cause to be
enforced each such agreement at the request of TeleChem.

as expressly permitted by this Section 5.07, neither the board of directors of
Integrated Media nor any committee thereof shall (A) withdraw, modify or change,

TeleChem, the approval by such board of directors or such committee of the board
of directors, approving or taking such action with respect to the Merger or this
Agreement, (B) approve or recommend, or propose publicly to approve or
recommend, any Superior Proposal or (C) cause Integrated Media to enter into any
letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other similar
agreement (each, an “Acquisition Agreement”) related to any Acquisition
Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Board
of Directors of Integrated Media (or any committee thereof considering an
Acquisition Proposal) determines in good faith, after consultation with outside
counsel, that in light of a Superior Proposal it is necessary to do so in order
to act in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of
Integrated Media under applicable law, the board of directors of Integrated
Media may (subject to this and the following sentences) withdraw, modify or
change its recommendation of the Merger, but only after twenty-four (24) hours
following TeleChem’s receipt of written notice advising TeleChem that the board
of directors of Integrated Media is prepared to do so, and only if, during such
twenty-four (24) hour period, Integrated Media and its advisors shall have
negotiated in good faith with TeleChem to make such adjustments in the terms and
conditions of this Agreement as would enable TeleChem to proceed with the
transactions contemplated herein on such adjusted terms.
(e) Nothing
contained in this Section 5.07 shall prohibit Integrated Media from taking and
disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and/or
14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any disclosure to the
stockholders of Integrated Media if, in the good faith judgment of the board of
directors of Integrated Media, after consultation with outside counsel, failure
so to disclose would be inconsistent with its obligations under applicable
law.
For purposes of this Section 5.07,
“Acquisition Proposal” means any offer or proposal for (whether or not in
writing and whether or not delivered to the stockholders of Integrated Media
generally), from any Person relating to any (a) direct or indirect acquisition
or purchase of assets (x) that constitute 15% or more of the assets of

in any Person beneficially owning 15% more of any class of equity securities of
Integrated Media or any of its subsidiaries whose business constitutes 15% or
more of the net revenues, net income or assets of Integrated Media and its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (d) merger, consolidation, business

involving Integrated Media or any of its subsidiaries whose business constitutes

Statement. Integrated Media, with the cooperation and
assistance of TeleChem and its counsel, will prepare and distribute to the

of Integrated Media shall, by resolution duly adopted by such Board of Directors
or a duly authorized committee of “non-employee directors” thereof, approve and
adopt, for purposes of exemption from “short-swing” liability under Section
16(b) of the Exchange Act, the acquisition of Integrated Media Common Stock
and/or Integrated Media Common Stock at the Effective Time by officers and
directors of TeleChem who become, prior to, at, or following the Effective Time
of the Merger, officers or directors of Integrated Media as a result of the
conversion of shares of TeleChem Shares in the Merger and the assumption of any
TeleChem options or warrants by Integrated Media at the Effective
Time. Such resolution shall set forth the name of the applicable
“insiders” for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the number of
securities to be acquired by each individual, that the approval is being granted
to exempt the transaction under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, and, for the
options and warrants of TeleChem to be assumed by Integrated Media at the
Effective Time, the material terms of the options and warrants to purchase
Integrated Media Common Stock acquired by such insiders as a result of the
assumption by Integrated Media of such options and warrants.

Confidential Information, refrain from using any of the Confidential Information
except in connection with this Agreement, and deliver promptly to TeleChem or
destroy, at the request and option of TeleChem, all tangible embodiments (and
all copies) of the Confidential Information, including in electric or magnetic
form, which are in his, her or its possession;
(b) in
the event that any of Integrated Media and its subsidiaries is requested or
required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal
proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar
process) to disclose any Confidential Information, that Integrated Media and its
subsidiaries will notify TeleChem promptly of the request or requirement so that
TeleChem may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the
provisions of this Section 5.12; and
(c) if,
in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, any
of Integrated Media or its subsidiaries is, on the advice of counsel, compelled
to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable
for contempt, that Integrated Media or its subsidiaries may disclose the
Confidential Information to the tribunal; provided, however, that the disclosing
party shall use his, her or its reasonable best efforts to obtain, at the
reasonable request of TeleChem, an order or other assurance that confidential
treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information
required to be disclosed as TeleChem shall designate.

We are acting as counsel to Integrated
Media Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”) and TCI Acquisition
Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Merger Sub”) in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of February 5, 2008
(the “Agreement”) by and among the Parent, Merger Sub, TeleChem International,
Inc. (“TeleChem”), a Delaware corporation and the stockholders of TeleChem (the
“Shareholders”).
In our examination we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to
original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic
copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to
any facts material to this opinion which we did not independently establish or
verify, we have relied upon statements and representations of Parent and, its
officers and other representatives and of public officials.
In rendering the opinions set forth
herein, we have examined and relied on originals or copies, certified or
otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the following:
|
|
(i)
|
the
Agreement;
|
|
|
(ii)
|
the
certificate of the officers of Parent dated the date hereof (the
“Officers' Certificate”);
|
|
|
(iii)
|
certified
copies of the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws, each as amended, of
Parent;

|
|
(iv)

Articles
of Incorporation of Merger Sub;
|
|
|
(v)
|
a
certified copy of certain resolutions duly adopted by the Board of
Directors of Parent;
|
|
|
(vi)
|
a

|
|
|

|
such
other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for
the opinion set forth below.
|
Members of this firm are admitted to
practice in the State of Texas. We express no opinion as to the laws
of any jurisdiction other than (i) the laws of the State of Texas; and (ii) the
federal laws of the United States of America to the extent specifically referred
to herein.
As to factual matters, we have relied
without investigation on the Officers' Certificate provided by Parent and the
representations and warranties contained in the Agreement.
|
|
(i)
|
Parent
is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of
Delaware;
|
|
|
(ii)
|
Parent
has the corporate power to carry on their business as now being
conducted;

|
|
(iii)
|
Merger
Sub is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of
Nevada;
|
|
|
(iv)
|
The
Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Parent and
Merger Sub and is a valid and binding obligation of Parent and Merger Sub
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that
enforcement is limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization,
insolvency, moratorium, or similar laws affecting creditors' rights and
remedies generally or by general equity principles (and excepting specific
performance as a remedy);
|
|
|
(v)
|
Parent
and Merger Sub have taken all internal action necessary for their due
performance under the Agreement;
|
|
|
(vi)
|
The
execution and delivery by Parent and Merger Sub of the Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not conflict
with or result in a breach of any provisions of, Parent's Articles of
Incorporation, Parent’s By-Laws, Merger Sub’s Articles of Organization or
Operating Arrangement or, to the best of counsel's knowledge after inquiry
and based upon information provided by Parent and Merger Sub, constitute a
default under or give rise to a right of termination, acceleration, or
cancellation under any agreement under which Parent, Merger Sub or any of
their properties are bound or violate any court order, writ or decree of
injunction applicable to Parent or Merger
Sub;
|
|
|
(vii)
|
Such
counsel does not know, after inquiry, of any actions, suits or other legal
proceedings or investigations pending or threatened against or relating
to, materially adversely affecting Parent or Merger Sub;
and
|
|
|
(viii)
|
All
of the outstanding shares of Parent's common stock are validly issued,
fully-paid and non-assessable, without preemptive
rights.
|
This opinion is being furnished only to
you and is solely for your benefit and is not to be used, circulated, quoted,
relied upon or otherwise referred to for any purpose without prior written
consent except that the Shareholders, individually or collectively may rely on
this opinion as if it were addressed to each Shareholder.
