Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On December 18, 2009, MDI (“MDI”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Almana Networks International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ANI”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to purchase certain assets of 214 Investments, Inc. a Texas corporation, (hereinafter called "214"), and its subsidiaries, including Learnsafe, Inc, a Texas corporation (hereinafter called “Learnsafe”), Monitor Dynamics, Inc., a Texas corporation (hereinafter called “Monitor”) (collectively “214 Parties”). The assets include but are not limited to customer contracts, fixed assets, and accounts receivable, but exclude those assets which are directly related to sensitive US government contracts that will remain in 214, which is a 100% US-owned private company and which MDI has no foreign management control over Monitor Dynamics. As consideration for the purchase, MDI entered into a mutual release with 214 and agreed to dismiss the lawsuits filed it in November 2009 against J. Collier Sparks, individually, and against 214 Investments, Inc., Monitor Dynamics, Inc., J. Collier Sparks and Richard Larsen.

On December 18, 2009, MDI entered into an Exclusive Service Provider and Non-Competition Agreement (the “Service Agreement”), by and among MDI, ANI, and the 214 Parties. Pursuant to the Service Agreement, MDI will be the exclusive provider for all products and services sold by 214 Parties to commercial enterprises, state and local government agencies, and school and other educational organizations, but excluding certain US government customers where there are concerns regarding foreign-controlled entities.

On December 18. 2009, the unsecured promissory note that was issued to MDI by 214 as consideration for 214’s purchase of Monitor on September 8, 2009, was amended and restated. The Amended and Restated Promissory Note (“Amended Note”) bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable monthly, and is payable on or before December 16, 2011, The principal amount of the Amended Note is $757,500, which includes the original principal of the original note plus accrued interest, and is secured by all the assets of 214 pursuant to a Security Agreement dated December 16, 2009.

On December 18, 2009, MDI entered into an Option Agreement with 214 for the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Monitor in exchange for the cancellation of the Amended Note. The option is exercisable thirty days after the date of the agreement and prior to two years from the date of the agreement.

On December 18, 2009, MDI entered into an Amended and Restated Intellectual Property License Agreement with Monitor, expanding the original license grant to MDI from Monitor to include the use of Point Guard.

The foregoing descriptions of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Service Agreement, Amended Note, Security Agreement, Option Agreement, and Amended and Restated Intellectual Property License Agreement and related documents do not purport to be complete and are qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete copies of the form of the Non-Competition Agreement and Option Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10,6, and incorporated herein by reference.

The terms of the Non-Competition Agreement, which prohibited MDI and ANI from competing against 214 with respect to specified fields, customers and territories for a period of five years, are nullified pursuant to the terms of the Termination Agreement.
