Summary of APPLIED DIGITAL SOLUTIONS INC

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On September 28, 2007, Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a memorandum of settlement related to a lawsuit previously filed against the Company as discussed below. The Company believes that entering into the settlement is positive for the Company, as settling this litigation now will enable management to focus its efforts on business opportunities and performance in anticipation of the upcoming proposed merger with Digital Angel Corporation, or Digital Angel.
On or about January 21, 2004, Hark M. Vasa and his family partnerships, the majority shareholder of Pacific Decision Sciences Corporation's ("PDSC") predecessor at the time the Company acquired that company, filed a complaint against the Company and PDSC, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in the Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial District in Palm Beach County, Florida for breach of contract and the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Plaintiffs sought damages arising from the purported delay in the registration of the shares they received in connection with the Company's acquisition of PDSC's predecessor. Trial in this case was set to commence on October 15, 2007. On September 28, 2007, the parties entered into a memorandum of settlement. Under the parties' agreement, the Company agreed to issue shares of its common stock to Mr. Vasa valued at $2.1 million, with issuances spread over five payments ($500,000 this year, $500,000 in 2008, $400,000 in 2009, $400,000 in 2010 and $300,000 in 2011), with the shares actually issued based on the value at the time of each issuance. The Company will file one or more registration statements registering the resale of such shares within 180 days of each issuance. If the value of the shares received by Mr. Vasa exceeds the values set forth above on the applicable date of registration, Mr. Vasa must return to the Company those shares representing the excess value. If the number of shares issued on any specific issuance date does not have the values set forth above on the date the shares are required to be registered, the Company will be required to issue additional shares to Mr. Vasa to cover the difference or pay the difference in cash. The Company also agreed to fund a project with Mr. Vasa for potential business development. The Company will provide $250,000 per year for three years beginning in 2007. The Company will also provide an amount not to exceed $50,000 per year for three years to cover certain associated expenses. It is anticipated that the Company will accrue and charge to expense the aggregate present value of these payments during the third quarter of 2007.
Section 2 - Financial Information
Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities On September 30, 2007, the Company's board of directors made a decision to sell two of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries: Computer Equity Corporation, or Computer Equity, and Perimeter Acquisition Corp., or Perimeter. This decision was made as part of management's strategy to streamline its operations in order to focus more of its efforts on the radio frequency identification, or RFID, and the global positioning systems, or GPS, and radio communication markets. This action was also taken in anticipation of the Company's planned merger with its majority-owned subsidiary, Digital Angel. Digital Angel currently operates in the RFID and GPS and radio communications sectors. The planned merger of the Company and Digital Angel

was announced on August 9, 2007. The merger is subject to a vote of the Company's and Digital Angel's stockholders, which will take place at a meeting of each of the companies' stockholders to be held on November 27, 2007.
As a result of the board's decision to sell Computer Equity and Perimeter, these businesses will be treated as discontinued operations in the Company's financial statements filed in its Quarterly Report of Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. The carrying value of Computer Equity and Perimeter is approximately $7.0 million and $0.2 million, respectively. As a result of the planned sales and the current expectation of the market value of the businesses, the Company expects to record an impairment charge associated with Computer Equity's goodwill of approximately $3.5 million during the three months-ended September 30, 2007. The Company anticipates selling these businesses within the next twelve months. Other than the impairment charge relating to Computer Equity's goodwill, the Company does not currently anticipate any additional substantive charges as a result of its decision to sell these non-strategic businesses.
Section 3 - Securities and Trading Markets Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities See the disclosure provided in Item 1.01 above.
The shares of common stock will be issued to Mr. Vasa without registration in reliance upon the exemption provided, among others, by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as a transaction not involving a public offering.
