Item 1.01                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Item 2.01                      Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On July 31, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), MacroSolve, Inc. (the "Company”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. (the “Buyer”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, effective on the Closing Date, the Company sold substantially all of the assets relating to its Illume Mobile business, for a purchase price of $1,000,000, of which $250,000 was paid in cash and $750,000 was paid in the form of 617,284 shares of the Buyer’s common stock (valued at $1.215 per share based on the 20 day volume weighted average price). The Company has the right to receive an earn-out payment from the Buyer (the “Earn-Out Payment”) of up to $500,000 (of which 50% will be paid in cash, and 50% will be paid in shares of common stock of the Buyer, valued at the last closing price of the Buyer’s common stock on the one year anniversary of the Closing Date), within 30 days of the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, which will be determined as follows:

(a)  If Net Revenue (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) attributable to the assets purchased under the Purchase Agreement, during the one year period commencing on the Closing Date) is $1,500,000 or less, the Earn-Out Payment will be $0;

(b) If Net Revenue is greater than $1,500,000 but less than $2,000,000, the Earn-Out Payment will be $100,000;

(c)  If Net Revenue is at least $2,000,000 but less than $3,000,000, the Earn-Out Payment will be equal to the sum of (i) $100,000 plus (ii) 40% of the amount that the Net Revenue amount exceeds $2,000,000; and

(d) If Net Revenue is $3,000,000 or more, the Earn-Out Payment will be $500,000.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Company and the Buyer entered into a patent license agreement (the “License Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company granted the Buyer a non-exclusive license under a patent held by the Company pertaining to information collection using mobile computers (the “Licensed Patent”) to make, have made, sell, offer for sale or import any product or service which in the absence of the License Agreement would infringe at least one claim of the Licensed Patent (including specifically the Company’s ReForm™ Development Platform) in and into the United States and to practice the Licensed Methods (as defined in the License Agreement), in the United States, during the term of the Licensed Patent. The Buyer agreed to pay the Company a licensing fee/royalty payment of (i) 7.5% of Net Revenues (as defined in the License Agreement) received from the sale of Software Products (as defined in the License Agreement) and/or Licensed Methods, and (ii) 5% of Net Revenues from the sale of Custom Development Services (as defined in the License Agreement). The Company also granted the Buyer an option to purchase a non-exclusive perpetual license under the Licensed Patent at a purchase price of $500,000.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Company and the Buyer entered into a non-competition and non-solicitation agreement (the “Non-Competition Agreement”). Pursuant to the Non-Competition Agreement, for a period of three years commencing on the Closing Date, the Company agreed not to engage in activities in the United States and Canada competitive with the products sold by the Company’s Illume Mobile business as of July 31, 2012, and the Buyer agreed not to engage in activities in the United States and Canada competitive with the products sold by the Company (not related to the assets sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement). The Company also agreed, for a period of three years, commencing on the Closing Date, not to solicit or hire (unless such employee has been terminated by the Buyer) employees of the Buyer, and the Buyer agreed, for a period of three years commencing on the Closing Date, not to solicit employees of the Company (except as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement).

The descriptions of the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the License Agreement, and the Non-Competition Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by these agreements, which contain all of the terms, conditions and covenants, and are filed herewith as exhibits.

4.20           Solvency.

(a) Seller is not now insolvent and will not be rendered insolvent by the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(a)            The Acquisition Shares will be acquired for investment purposes for Seller’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof.  Seller has neither any present intention of effecting, nor any agreement, understanding or arrangement with any Person regarding, the sale, the granting of any participation in or any other distribution or transfer of any of the Acquisition Shares.

(b)            Seller has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from Purchaser regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Acquisition Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the business, operations, properties and assets of Purchaser.
 
 
14

 
 
(c)            Seller acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment in the Acquisition Shares and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters such that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Acquisition Shares.  Seller has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Acquisition Shares.
 
(d)            Seller is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501, as presently in effect, of Regulation D under the Securities Act.
 
(e)            Seller understands that the Acquisition Shares are characterized as “restricted securities” under United States federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from Purchaser in a transaction not involving a public offering and that, under such laws and applicable regulations, such Acquisition Shares may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.  Seller is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.  Seller understands that an investment in the Acquisition Shares involves an extremely high degree of risk and may result in a complete loss of Seller’s investment.  Seller understands that the Acquisition Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and have not been and will not be registered or qualified in any state in which they are offered, and thus Seller will not be able to resell or otherwise transfer such Acquisition Shares unless such Acquisition Shares are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and registered or qualified under applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from such registration or qualification is available.
 
(f)            Seller has no immediate need for liquidity in connection with such Seller’s investment in the Acquisition Shares, does not anticipate that it will be required to sell the Acquisition Shares in the foreseeable future and has the capacity to sustain a complete loss of its investment in the Acquisition Shares.
 
(g)            Seller understands that the instruments evidencing the Acquisition Shares may bear a legend substantially in the following form:
 
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”).  THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF THE SECURITIES ACT.”

(i)  Seller acknowledges and confirms that it has read this Agreement in its entirety, that it has been given the opportunity to consider the Agreement and seek independent legal counsel and advice and that it enters into this Agreement voluntarily and intending to be legally bound.

(b) If any provision of Section 1.1 or Section 1.2 of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended for too great a period of time or too large a geographic area or over too great a range of activities, it should be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, geographic area, or range of activities as to which such court would find it enforceable, and such determination of unenforceability will not affect any other provision of this Agreement.

MacroSolve Sells Illume Mobile Business Unit to DecisionPoint Systems
 
Receives stake in DecisionPoint and focuses operations on Intellectual Property strategy
 
 
TULSA, OK- August 06, 2012--  In a major development of the Company, MacroSolve, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: MCVE) (OTCQB: MCVE) ("MacroSolve" or the "Company"), focused on intellectual property licensing and patent enforcement in the mobile app market development space, today announced that effective July 31, 2012 it has sold the assets of its Illume Mobile business unit, which develops and delivers mobile applications, to DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:DPSI), a leading provider of enterprise mobility and RFID solutions.
 
MacroSolve sold the Illume Mobile assets to DecisionPoint for $250,000 in cash and approximately $750,000 of DecisionPoint stock, and an agreement by DecisionPoint to pay ongoing patent royalties on current and future sales of apps based upon MacroSolve’s patent No. 7,822,816.  In addition, MacroSolve may earn up to an additional $500,000 in cash upon certain net revenue milestones being reached by DecisionPoint relating to the Illume Mobile assets.
 
As a result of this sale, MacroSolve will own approximately 8% of DecisionPoint common stock on the date of closing. DecisionPoint has expressed that it will continue to operate the Illume Mobile assets and retain the majority of its employees in Tulsa, Oklahoma where MacroSolve is headquartered.
 
The combination of the Illume Moble app development and sales skill sets with the large existing base of DecisionPoint customers and DecisionPoint’s ability to reach into the Fortune 1000 enterprise customer base creates a strong synergistic opportunity for future value for both companies.
 
“The sale of Illume Mobile enabled MacroSolve to spin off cash flow dilutive operations while maintaining the Company’s focus on patent enforcement and licensing, both of which have proven to generate high margin revenues for MacroSolve,” stated MacroSolve CFO, Kendall Carpenter. “We believe owning a nearly 8 percent stake in DecisionPoint is an asset that has growth potential. Through this sale, we are bringing to Tulsa a world-class employer in DecisionPoint, which will use Tulsa as one of its main operating centers.”
 
Jim McGill, Executive Vice Chairman of MacroSolve commented, “MacroSolve’s shareholders will benefit from increasing value of DecisionPoint stock as well as ongoing monetization of MacroSolve’s intellectual property. DecisionPoint has the resources to execute larger enterprise level contracts for mobile apps based upon our technology. This positions us to continue to benefit from this transaction long term. We will also look for additional partners with which to further monetize our intellectual property. By focusing on intellectual property and patent enforcement, we enhance MacroSolve’s capacity for building shareholder value with a business model that offers low operational expenses with strong cash flows and higher operating margins. Our patent is truly foundational to the mobile apps marketplace and we believe we will continue to unlock its value.”
 
As of March 31, 2012, MacroSolve had nineteen legal proceedings open against 34 alleged infringers of its patent No. 7,822,816. The Company has already settled with prejudice pursuant to a settlement agreement with 21 companies it had previously filed against.
