Aircraft, LLC, Williams Family Trust, and American Nortel Communications, Inc. (collectively, the "Williams Group").  This Agreement will serve to settle and mutually release each member of the Williams Group, on the one hand, and Card and MedCom, on the other hand, from any and all claims that any member of the Williams Group, and Card or MedCom has against the other relating to certain litigation that was filed or corporate governance claims that may arise from Card or MedCom.  As a condition to the Agreement, the Williams Group has returned an aggregate of 24,150,264 shares of Card common stock and 20,415,651 shares of MedCom common stock.  The foregoing description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
