Fireline agrees that it shall pay all of its contractors, subcontractors, vendors and other creditors on a timely basis and consistent with past business practices, and to the extent the failure of Fireline to pay such contractors, subcontractors, vendors and other creditors on a timely basis and consistent with past business practices has an adverse effect on Purchaser and its business, Purchaser shall have the option (but not the obligation) to pay such contractors, subcontractors, vendors and other creditors on behalf of Fireline and to offset such payments against the Escrow Shares or against the amounts due and owing under the Note or otherwise seek indemnification pursuant to Section 10.02.

Purchaser, subject to the limitations set forth in the Escrow Agreement and after complying with the provisions of Section 11.04 of this Agreement, may apply and set off any indemnification obligations of Shareholder pursuant to Section 10.02 against the Escrow Shares and the amounts owing to Shareholder under the Note, in full or partial satisfaction of such indemnification obligations, (a) if the Note is outstanding, at Purchaser's option (i) by reducing the Escrow Shares, or (ii) by offsetting the Note and reducing the Escrow Shares in equal value, or (b) if the Note has been paid in full but Escrow Shares remain in escrow, by reducing the Escrow Shares, or (c) if the Note has been paid in full and the Escrow Shares have been released to Shareholder, by (i) first, returning Purchaser Shares to Purchaser, if the Purchaser Shares are still owned of record by Shareholder, and (ii) next, by payment to Purchaser in cash or other immediately available funds. For purposes of reducing the Escrow Shares or returning the Purchaser Shares to Purchaser in full or partial satisfaction of Shareholder's indemnity obligations hereunder, each Escrow Share and each Purchaser Share shall have a value equal to the greater of (i) the current Fair Market Value (as defined below) of such Purchaser Share, or (ii) Eight Dollars ($8.00) per Purchaser Share. "Fair Market Value" of a Purchaser Share shall be equal to the 30-day trailing average of the closing price of Common Stock on the Nasdaq (or any other securities exchange or national quotation system on which the Common Stock may then be listed or quoted) on the date the claim is settled.

10.04 Notification of Claim. Each indemnified party under this Article X will promptly, and within ten (10) days after notice to such indemnified party of any claim as to which it asserts a claim for indemnification, notify the indemnifying party of such claim and the amount thereof; provided, however, that the failure to give such notification shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have pursuant to the provisions of this Article X as long as the failure to give such notice within such time is not prejudicial to the indemnifying party. Notice to an indemnified party for the purpose of the preceding sentence shall mean the filing of any legal action, receipt of any claim in writing or similar form of actual notice.

10.05 Defense of Claim. If any claim for indemnification by any indemnified party arises out of a claim by a Person other than such indemnified party, the indemnifying party may, by written notice to the indemnified party, undertake to conduct any proceedings or negotiations in connection therewith or necessary to defend the indemnified party and take all other steps or proceedings to settle or contest such claim, including without limitation the employment of counsel; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall reasonably consider the advice of the indemnified party as to the defense and settlement of such claim and the indemnified party shall have the right to participate, at its own expense, in such defense, but control of such litigation and settlement shall remain with the indemnifying party. The indemnified party shall provide all reasonable cooperation in connection with any such defense by the indemnifying party. Counsel and auditor fees, filing fees and court fees of all proceedings, contests or lawsuits with respect to any such claim shall be borne by the indemnifying party. If any such claim is made hereunder and the indemnifying party elects not to undertake the defense thereof by written notice to the indemnified party, the indemnified party shall be entitled to indemnification with respect thereto pursuant to the terms of this Article X. To the extent that the indemnifying party undertakes the defense of such claim by written notice to the indemnified party and diligently pursues such defense at its expense, the indemnified party shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder only to the extent that such defense is unsuccessful as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or by written acknowledgment of the parties.

10.06 Collection of Accounts Receivable. To the extent Shareholder has paid Purchaser for any uncollected Accounts Receivable, those Accounts Receivable shall be assigned to Shareholder for collection by him. Purchaser agrees that Shareholder may thereafter personally pursue collection of such uncollected Accounts Receivable and, if collected, shall be entitled to retain the amount collected (net of any collection costs incurred and recovered by Shareholder), not to exceed the corresponding amount that Shareholder has paid Purchaser (net of any collection costs incurred and recovered by Shareholder). The Shareholder shall be entitled to pursue all normal and customary collection methods to fully collect same, and Fireline shall not release any liens or otherwise act or omit to act in a manner which will interfere with the Shareholder's ability to collect the receivables assigned to the Shareholder. The Shareholder shall have all reasonable access to books, records, and employees of Fireline to enforce and monitor the provisions of this Section 10.06 which are intended to assure the Shareholder that it collects the Accounts Receivable which are not collected by Fireline. Any excess amount collected over and above the paid amount (net of any collection costs incurred and recovered by Shareholder) shall belong to Purchaser and shall be promptly paid to Purchaser.

10.07 Other Remedies. The remedies of each party to this Agreement as provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. In addition, the parties acknowledge that the acquisition of the Business is a unique opportunity and that any breach of this Agreement by Fireline or Shareholder or Purchaser may not be adequately compensated by damages. Accordingly, in such event, the parties shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies that they may have, to enforce this Agreement by a decree of specific performance.

ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS

11.01 Survival. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, any Exhibit or Schedule hereto or any document delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any investigation on the part of the parties hereto and shall continue in full force and effect after the Closing for a period of two (2) years from the Closing Date at which time they shall expire and no party shall any longer be liable with respect thereto, except as to claims made in respect thereof in writing by any other party or any other indemnitee on or before the expiration of such two year period; provided, however, that the representations and warranties contained in (i) Sections 4.03, 4.26 and 4.30 shall survive indefinitely, and (ii) Sections 4.06, 4.22 and 4.24 shall survive for three (3) years from the Closing Date.

11.04 Arbitration. The parties shall use their respective best efforts to settle amicably any disputes, differences or controversies arising among the parties out of or in connection with this Agreement. However, if not so settled, any controversy or claim arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA"), and judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereover; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 11.04 shall be construed as to deny Purchaser the right and power to seek and obtain injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for any breach or threatened breach by Shareholder of the covenants in Sections 7.14 and 7.15 of this Agreement. The arbitration shall be conducted in Atlanta, Georgia unless otherwise agreed by the parties thereto and shall be conducted before a panel of three (3) arbitrators in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA. A party hereto shall initiate arbitration by sending written notice of its intention to arbitrate to the other parties and to the AAA office located in Atlanta, Georgia.

Shareholder, on the one side, and Purchaser, on the other, shall appoint one arbitrator of such party's choosing, and the parties shall mutually agree on the third arbitrator. In the event that the parties have not mutually agreed on the third arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the demand for arbitration is filed, the third arbitrator shall be appointed in the manner provided by the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA. The decision of the arbitrators will be final and binding on the parties hereto and their successors and assignees. Where consistent with applicable law, the arbitrators shall have the authority to order the non-prevailing party to pay the prevailing party's attorney's fees and all costs of the arbitration. The parties will participate in good faith in a non-binding mediation of their dispute at least 60 days prior to the date of the arbitration hearing. The parties shall jointly select the mediator but if they are unable to agree on a mediator, then the arbitrators shall appoint the mediator. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for a judicial acceptable of the award and any order of enforcement as the case may be. The parties intend this agreement to arbitrate to be irrevocable.

11.05 Attorneys' Fees. In the event that any action or proceeding, including arbitration, is commenced by any party hereto for the purpose of enforcing any provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action, proceeding or arbitration may receive as part of any award, judgment, decision or other resolution of such action, proceeding or arbitration its costs and attorneys' fees as determined by the judge, arbitrator or body making such award, judgment, decision or resolution. Should any claim hereunder be settled short of the commencement of any such action or proceeding, including arbitration, the parties in such settlement shall be entitled to include as part of the damages alleged to have been incurred reasonable costs of attorneys or other professionals in investigation or counseling on such claim.
