with respect to the employment of any officers, employees, directors or

limitations) and the continuing covenants shall survive hereafter, pursuant to
their terms.
5
4.2 The right to indemnification or payment of Damages (as defined in Section
4.4 hereof) or other remedy based on any representation, warranty, covenant or
obligation of a party hereunder shall not be waived by any investigation
conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being
acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance
with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.
4.3 The waiver of any condition to a party's obligation to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereunder, where such condition is based on the
accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or
compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to
indemnification, or payment of Damages, or other remedy based on such
representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.
4.4 Seller and QXIT, jointly and severally (the "Indemnifying Parties"), shall
indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its respective officers, directors and
affiliates (the "Buyer Indemnified Persons") for, and will pay to the Buyer
Indemnified Persons, the amount of, any loss, liability, claim, damage
(including, without limitation, incidental and consequential damages), cost,
expense (including, without limitation, interest, penalties, costs of
investigation and defense and the reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and
other professional experts) or diminution of value, whether or not involving a
third-party claim (collectively, "Damages"), directly or indirectly arising
from, attributable to or in connection with:
(a) any representation or warranty made by Seller or QXIT in this
Agreement or any Closing deliveries, that is, or was at the time made,
false or inaccurate, or any breach of, or misrepresentation with
respect to, any such representation or warranty; and
(b) any breach by any of Seller or QXIT of any covenant, agreement
or obligation of QXIT or Seller contained in this Agreement;
(c) any claims or litigation relating to QXIT now pending or
threatened or which may hereafter be brought against Buyer and/or QXIT
or Seller based upon events occurring prior to the date hereof and not
attributable to the acts of Buyer; or
(d) any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands,
assessments, judgments, costs, losses, liabilities and reasonable legal
and other expenses incident to any of the foregoing.
4.5 Except for the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.8
hereof, Seller and QXIT shall have no liability for indemnification with respect
to any representation or warranty unless, on or before the second anniversary of
the date hereof, Buyer notifies Seller of a claim specifying the basis thereof
in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Buyer. A claim with respect to
any covenant, agreement or obligation contained in this Agreement, may be made
at any time without any time limitation.

against it, or written threat thereof, Buyer Indemnified Person will, if a claim

notice to the Indemnifying Parties of the commencement of such action, suit or
6
proceeding. The Buyer Indemnified Person shall furnish to the Indemnifying
Parties in reasonable detail such information as the Indemnified Person may have
with respect to such indemnification claims (including copies of any summons,
complaint or other pleading which may have been served on it and any written
claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or assenting the
same). Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section, no failure or delay
by the Buyer Indemnified Person in the performance of the foregoing shall reduce
or otherwise affect the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify and
hold the Buyer Indemnified Person harmless except to the extent that such
failure or delay shall have materially and adversely affected the Indemnifying
Party's ability to defend against, settle or satisfy any action, suit or
proceeding the claim for which the Buyer Indemnified Person is entitled to
indemnification hereunder. The foregoing shall not apply to the extent
inconsistent with the provisions of Section 4.8 hereof.
4.7 If the claim or demand set forth in the Notice of Claim given by a
Buyer Indemnified Person is a claim or demand asserted by a third party, the
Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after the Date of Notice of Claim
(as hereinafter defined) to notify the Buyer Indemnified Person in writing of
its election to defend such third party claim or demand on behalf of the Buyer
Indemnified Person (the "Notice Period"); provided, however, that the Buyer
Indemnified Person is authorized to file any motion, answer or other pleading
which it deems necessary or appropriate to protect its interests during the
Notice Period. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend such third party claim
or demand, the Buyer Indemnified Person shall make available to the Indemnifying
Party and its agents and representatives all records and other materials which
are reasonably required in the defense of such third party claim or demand and
shall otherwise cooperate (at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying
Party) with, and assist (at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party)
the Indemnifying Party in the defense of, such third party claim or demand, and
so long as the Indemnifying Party is diligently defending such third party claim
in good faith, the Buyer Indemnified Person shall not pay, settle or compromise
such third party claim or demand. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend
such third party claim or demand, the Buyer Indemnified Person shall have the
right to control the defense of such third party claim or demand, at the
Indemnified Person's own expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to
defend such third party claim or demand or does not defend such third party
claim or demand in good faith, the Buyer Indemnified Person shall have the
right, in addition to any other right or remedy it may have hereunder at the
Indemnifying Party's expense, to defend such third party claim or demand.
4.8 The term "Date of Notice of Claim" shall mean the date the Notice of
Claim is effective pursuant to Section 4.6 of this Agreement.
4.9 A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third party
claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is
sought.
4.10 Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any
matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby or the documents executed and delivered in connection
herewith, and any action for enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof may
be brought in the courts of the State of Colorado or the State of New York or of
the United States of America for the District of Colorado or for the Southern
District of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
parties each hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally
and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and appellate
7
courts thereof. The parties irrevocably consent to service of process out of any
of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding in accordance with
the notice provisions set forth in Section 9.5 hereof. The parties each hereby
irrevocably waive any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying
of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or the
documents execute and delivered in connection herewith brought in the courts
referred to above and hereby further irrevocably waive and agree, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, not to plead or claim in any such court that any
such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any party hereto to
serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

respective obligations hereunder which are to be complied with or performed on
or before the Closing Date.
6.2 No action, suit or proceeding shall have been instituted or shall have
been threatened before any court or other governmental body or by any public
authority to restrain, enjoin or prohibit the transactions contemplated herein,
or which might subject any of the parties hereto or their directors or officers
to any material liability, fine, forfeiture or penalty on the grounds that the
transactions contemplated hereby, the parties hereto, or their directors or
officers have violated any applicable law or regulation or have otherwise acted
improperly in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and the
parties hereto have not been advised by counsel that, in the opinion of such
8
counsel, such action, suit or proceeding raises substantial questions of law or
fact which could reasonably be decided adversely to any party hereto or its
directors or officers.
6.3 The representations and warranties made by Seller and QXIT in this
Agreement shall be true as though such representations and warranties had been
made or given on and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent that such
representations and warranties may be untrue on and as of the Closing Date
because of changes caused by transactions suggested or approved in writing by
Buyer.
6.4 The total sum of $200,000.00 shall have been deposited in escrow with
the Escrow Agent for the purchase of 4,400,000 shares of Common Stock of QXIT

actions will be taken by QXIT or its shareholders which would reduce the number
of outstanding shares of Common Stock, whether by reverse split, consolidation,
reorganization, merger or otherwise, of QXIT or any successor company (which
shall be known as the "no-reverse covenant"). In the event that the "no-reverse
covenant" is breached, the resolution and this covenant shall provide that it
shall trigger a grant by QXIT of an immediate mandatory dividend to each
shareholder as of October 31, 2002, for each share owned after the reverse
split, consolidation, merger, or reduction of outstanding shares of a number of
shares inversely proportional to the amount of the reverse split, except that

time by the party which is entitled to the benefit thereof, by action taken by
its Board of Directors; provided, however, that such action shall be taken only
