AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), dated as of February 7, 2008, by and among MORLEX, INC., a Colorado corporation (“Parent”), RHI MERGER SUB, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and RIGHTSIDE HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
 
WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have approved the merger of the Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving corporation as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”), all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and
 
WHEREAS, it is intended that, for federal income tax purposes, the Merger is one of a series of integrated transactions qualifying under the provisions of Section 351 of the Code (as defined in Section 4.8(a));
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual benefits to be derived from this Agreement and the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and conditions contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as set forth below.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in Annex I hereto.
 
ARTICLE II
GENERAL; CLOSING; CLOSING DELIVERABLES
 
2.1 The Merger.
 
In accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Certificate of Merger”), and the DGCL (as defined in Section 2.5 below), at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 2.2 below) the Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, which, at and after the Effective Time, shall be and is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Corporation.” The name of the Surviving Corporation shall be Rightside Holdings, Inc. The Company and Merger Sub are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the “Constituent Corporations.”
 
2.2 Effective Time of the Merger.
 
The Merger shall become effective upon the filing by the Company of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the acceptance thereof by such Secretary of State and by making all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL. The Certificate of Merger shall be executed and delivered in the manner provided under the DGCL. The time when the Merger shall become effective is referred to in this Agreement as the “Effective Time.”
 
2.3 Effect of the Merger.
 
 
-1-

 
Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement or in the Certificate of Merger, at the Effective Time, the separate existence and corporate organization of the Merger Sub shall cease, the Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Surviving Corporation and the Merger shall have the effects provided in the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at the Effective Time all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.
 
2.4 Charter; By-Laws; Officers and Directors of Surviving Corporation.
 
From and after the Effective Time, (a) the certificate of incorporation of the Company shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until altered, amended or repealed as provided in the DGCL; (b) the bylaws of the Company shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, unless and until altered, amended or repealed as provided in the DGCL, the Surviving Corporation’s certificate of incorporation or such bylaws; and (c)  the officers and directors of the Company shall become the officers and directors, respectively, of the Surviving Corporation, unless and until removed or until their respective terms of office shall have expired in accordance with the DGCL or the Surviving Corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, as applicable.
 
2.5 Closing.
 
The closing of the Transactions (the “Closing”) will take place as promptly as practicable (and in any event within two business days) after satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than conditions that require the delivery of documents, which may be satisfied at the Closing), but no later than February 28, 2008. The Closing shall be held at such time and place as agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”. At the Closing, each of Parent and the Company shall deliver the agreements, certificates and other documents required to be delivered and which have not been delivered prior to the Closing. At the end of the Closing, the Company shall file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware the Certificate of Merger with respect to the Merger pursuant to and in compliance with this Agreement and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).
 
ARTICLE III
CONVERSION OF SECURITIES
 
3.1 Effect on the Stock of the Constituent Corporations. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of any shares of stock of the Constituent Corporations:
 
(a) Conversion of Merger Sub Stock. Each share of common stock of Merger Sub, par value $.001 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.
 
 
-2-

 
(b) Cancellation of Treasury Shares or Shares held by Parent or Merger Sub. Each share of capital stock of the Company that is held in the treasury of the Company or issued and owned by Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and retired without any conversion thereof and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.
 
(c) Cancellation of Stock Option Plans and Agreements. Any and all stock option plans or agreements of the Company that are set forth in Schedule 4.10 of the Disclosure Schedule, and any stock option grants made in connection therewith, to the extent that they remain unvested as of the Effective Time, shall automatically be terminated and shall cease to exist, and no issuances or payments shall be required thereunder, other than with respect to those shares already committed to be issued pursuant to options to acquire shares of Company Common Stock outstanding and vested at the Effective Time under any such Company stock option plans (individually, a "Company Stock Option" and collectively, the "Company Stock Options"). The Company shall cause the holders of all vested options to acquire shares of Company Common Stock under all Company Stock Options to exercise such stock options immediately prior to the Effective Time.
 
(d) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 3.1(b), and subject to Section 3.1(g), shall automatically be converted into and become the right to receive 0.4236 (the “Exchange Ratio”) fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Parent (“Parent Common Stock”) which, in addition to any cash in lieu of any fractional interests pursuant to Section 3.2, shall constitute the merger consideration (the “Merger Consideration”). As of the Effective Time, shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration upon surrender of such certificate. In no event shall interest be paid or accrued on the Merger Consideration.
 
(e) Company Preferred Stock. From and after the Effective Time, the Company’s Preferred Stock (as defined below) immediately prior to the Effective Time will be deemed the preferred stock of the Surviving Corporation (“Surviving Corp. Preferred Stock”). From and after the Effective Time, the Certificate of Designations of the Company’s Preferred Stock shall be the Certificate of Designations of the Surviving Corp. Preferred Stock until altered, amended or repealed as provided in the DGCL. As promptly as practicable following the Closing, each share of Surviving Corp. Preferred Stock issued and outstanding shall be converted into Parent Preferred Stock and/or Parent Common Stock on such terms as determined by the Board of Directors of Parent, with the consent of the holders of the Surviving Corp. Preferred Stock to the extent required.
 
(f) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to reflect fully the appropriate effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock having a record date on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.
 
 
-3-

 
(g) Dissent Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares (“Dissent Shares”) of the Company Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by any person who is entitled to demand and properly demands payment of the fair value of such Dissent Shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the DGCL shall not be converted into Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(d), but rather the holders of Dissent Shares shall be entitled to payment of the fair market value of such Dissent Shares in accordance with the DGCL; provided, however, that if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to receive payment of fair market value under the DGCL, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Dissent Shares shall cease and such Dissent Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into, and to have become exchangeable solely for the right to receive, Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(d). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any amounts to be paid pursuant to this Section 3.1(g) other than Merger Consideration shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation and not by Parent.
 
3.2 Fractional Shares. No certificates representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and such fractional shares shall not entitle the owner thereof to any rights of a stockholder of Parent. In lieu of any such fractional shares, each holder of shares of Company Common Stock exchanged pursuant to Section 3.1(d) who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock then held by such holder) shall receive cash (without interest) in an amount equal to the product of such fractional part of a share of Parent Common Stock multiplied by the average of the closing prices of the Parent Common Stock on the OTCBB as reported on the OTCBB for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the second trading day prior to the Closing Date, or, in the event that there has been no trading of Parent Common Stock during such 10-day period, the last available closing price of the Parent Common Stock on the OTCBB.
 
3.3 Exchange of Shares and Certificates.
 
(a) Exchange Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall engage a nationally-recognized institution reasonably satisfactory to the Company to act as exchange agent in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). At the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, in trust for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 3.1(d). In addition, Parent shall make available by depositing with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time after the Effective Time, cash in an amount sufficient to make the payments in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 3.2 and any distributions to which holders of shares of Company Common Stock may be entitled pursuant to Section 3.3(d). All cash and Parent Common Stock deposited with the Exchange Agent shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Exchange Fund.”
 
 
-4-

 
(b) At or after the Closing, each holder of a certificate representing the Company Common Stock (the “Certificates”) shall surrender and deliver such Certificate to the Exchange Agent together with a duly completed and executed transmittal letter. Upon such surrender and delivery, the holder shall receive the Merger Consideration. Until so surrendered and exchanged, each Certificate formerly representing an outstanding share of Company Common Stock shall, after the Effective Time, be deemed for all purposes to evidence only the right to receive the Merger Consideration.
 
(c) At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and no transfer of shares of Company Common Stock shall be recorded thereafter, other than transfers of shares of Company Common Stock that have occurred prior to the Effective Time. In the event that, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented for transfer to the Company, Merger Sub or Parent, they shall be delivered to the Exchange Agent and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided for in this Section 3.3.
 
(d) Any Merger Consideration that remains undistributed to the stockholders of the Company as of the Effective Time after four months have elapsed following the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent by the Exchange Agent, upon demand, and any former stockholders of the Company who have not previously complied with this Section 3.3 shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of their claim for the Merger Consideration or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock.
 
(e) Neither the Exchange Agent, nor any of the Company, Merger Sub or Parent shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock with respect to any Merger Consideration (or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock) delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.
 
(f) In the event any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall deliver the Merger Consideration and any distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the record holder thereof and the delivery of such bond as the Exchange Agent may reasonably require.
 
(g) No transfer taxes shall be payable by any stockholder of the Company in respect of the issuance of the Parent Common Stock under this Section 3.3, except that if any Parent Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificate surrendered has been registered, it shall be a condition of such issuance that the Person requesting such issuance shall pay to Parent any transfer taxes payable by reason thereof, or of any prior transfer of such surrendered Certificate, or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such taxes have been paid or are not payable.
 
3.4 Resale Restrictions.
 
(a) The stockholders of the Company who received shares of Parent Common Stock as Merger Consideration may not offer or sell any shares of Parent Common Stock unless such offer or sale is made (i) pursuant to an effective registration of such Parent Common Stock under the Securities Act, or (ii) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Parent shall refuse to register the transfer of any Parent Common Stock not made in accordance with this Section 3.4 and for such purpose may place stop order instructions with its transfer agent with respect to the Parent Common Stock issued as Merger Consideration. A proposed transfer shall be deemed to comply with this Section 3.4 if the applicable stockholder delivers to Parent a legal opinion in form and substance satisfactory to Parent from counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent to the effect that such transfer complies with this Section 3.4.
 
 
-5-

 
(b) During any time that a stockholder of the Company is not entitled to sell the shares of Parent Common Stock received as Merger Consideration such stockholder may not (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer to dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Parent Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Parent Common Stock, or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers all or a portion of the economic consequences associated with the ownership of any Parent Common Stock (regardless of whether any of the transactions described in clause (i) or (ii) is to be settled by the delivery of Parent Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise).
 
(c) Each certificate representing shares of Parent Common Stock issued as Merger Consideration will bear the following legend or one substantially similar thereto:
 
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO DISTRIBUTION OR RESALE, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, MORTGAGED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE AVAILABILITY OF AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS.
