ITEM 1.01.  ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

ITEM 2.01.  COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS


Acquisition of Sponge Limited

         On February 20, 2006, NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. ("NeoMedia) and
Sponge Limited ("Sponge") of London (www.spongegroup.com) signed a definitive
share purchase agreement (the "Agreement") under which NeoMedia acquired all of
the outstanding shares of Sponge in exchange for (pound)3,450,000 (approximately
$6 million) cash and (pound)6,550,000 (approximately $11.4 million) in shares of
NeoMedia common stock. The (pound)6,550,000 stock portion of the purchase price
is represented by 29,696,745 shares of NeoMedia common stock, calculated by
dividing (pound)6,550,000 by the volume-weighted average closing price of
NeoMedia common stock for the ten days up to and including February 8, 2006. The
Agreement also calls for Sponge to earn an additional (pound)2,500,000
(approximately $4.4 million) in the form of NeoMedia common stock if, during the
two-year period beginning at closing, the Sponge business earns in excess of
(pound)1,300,000 (approximately $2.3 million) in net profits.

         Closing is scheduled to occur during the week ending February 24, 2006.

         Founded in 2001, Sponge has grown to become a U.K. market leader in
providing mobile applications to agencies and media groups, and gain recognition
as one of Europe's top independent developers of mobile applications and
content. Today, Sponge counts more than 40 agencies, including WPP, Aegis and
BBH, as clients, and supplies services for over 100 world-class brands,
including Coca Cola(R), Heineken(R) and Diageo. Sponge also supplies a range of
mobile services to media groups, including News International, Trinity Mirror,
Endemol and IPC.


         The Agreement is attached hereto as exhibit 16.1. On February 22, 2006,
NeoMedia issued a press release with respect to the Agreement, attached hereto
as Exhibit 16.2.
