Under the recent amendment, InterCept received $8.0 million from the escrow and the former owners received the remaining $2.5 million. At the closing of the original agreement on April 8, 2002, InterCept placed a portion of the purchase price in escrow to secure representations and warranties of the former owners.

InterCept agreed to indemnify the former owners for any claims resulting from processing-related activities that occurred before April 8, 2002.

In addition, Garrett Bender, iBill's President and CEO, has left the company to pursue other interests. Mr. Bender has agreed to be available to iBill for a period of 60 days to assist with the transition. John M. Perry, CEO of InterCept Merchant Services, is currently performing a strategic review of iBill and will be directing its day-to-day activities in the interim. John W. Collins, Chairman and CEO of InterCept, noted, "We recognize Garrett's efforts at iBill and wish him well in his future endeavors."

Further commenting on the amendment, Mr. Collins stated, "We believe that the conclusion of the escrow and earnout matters will give InterCept more control over the direction of iBill. We believe that we will now be able to better respond to the requirements of the card associations and to operate iBill in a way that better matches our philosophy and needs."

I received an email about that early this morning from someone close to the situation.

All I had to say in response was, "Good riddance to bad rubbish".

Bender didn't give a shit about Ibill's situation and it's better for Ibill that he's gone.

He stood in the Ibill booth in Vegas smirking while webmasters asked for their money, what a piece of shit. It was obvious then that he was already planning to leave.

I heard he got a huge settlement when Ibill sold, he has his money and he certainly acted like he didn't give a fuck about the rest of us.

Bye, bye Garret..hope you roast.
