misrepresentation or non-fulfillment of any covenant on the part of the Seller
under this Agreement of which Buyers first become aware after the Closing; and
(ii) all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees)
incurred by the Buyers (A) in connection with any action, suit, proceeding,
demand, assessment or judgment by or on behalf of a third party arising from
matters as to which a misrepresentation was made by the Seller herein and of
which Buyers first become aware after the Closing, or (B) with respect to any
claim made directly by the Buyers against the Seller based upon any
misrepresentation or non-fulfillment of any covenant on the part of the Seller
under this Agreement, unless the Buyers shall not prevail with respect to such
claim.

of this Section 8.3, the Buyers agree to indemnify and to hold the Seller
harmless (net of any tax effect) from and against and in respect of any loss,

attorneys' fees) incurred by the Seller in connection with any action, suit,
proceeding, demand, assessment or judgment incident to any of the foregoing.
(c) The Seller and the Buyers (who together for purposes of
this Subparagraph 8.3(c) shall be considered a "party") each agree to give
prompt written notice to the other of any claim against the party giving notice
which might give rise to a claim by it against the other party hereto based upon
the indemnity agreement contained in Section 8.3(a) or 8.3(b) hereof, stating
the nature and basis of the claim and, to the extent then known, the actual or
estimated amount thereof, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect
the rights of the indemnified party hereunder, except (i) to the extent the
indemnifying party shall have suffered actual damage by reason of such failure,
or (ii) if such notice is not given within 30 days from the date such claim
first became known to the party giving notice, in

deemed to have lapsed and expired. In the event any action, suit or proceeding

liability under the indemnity agreement contained in Section 8.3(a) or 8.3(b)
hereof, the indemnifying party shall have the right, at its sole cost and
expense, to defend such action, with counsel of its own choosing which shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in the name and on behalf of
the indemnified party and in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding
the parties hereto agree to render to each other such assistance as may
reasonably be required in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any
such action, suit or proceeding. The indemnified party shall be kept fully
informed with respect to any such action, suit or proceeding and shall have a
right to participate therein at its own expense, it being understood and agreed
that so long as the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of such action,
suit or proceeding and has paid or is paying the costs and expenses of such
defense, the indemnified party shall bear its own counsel fees and expenses with
respect thereto. Neither party shall make any settlement of any claim which
might give rise to liability to the other party under the indemnity contained in

other party, which consent such other party covenants shall not be unreasonably
withheld.

hereof asserts a claim against the Corporation, whether for breach of contract
or otherwise, the Buyers shall have the right (i) to withhold, from the $20,000
balance of the Purchase Price set forth in Paragraph 2.1(b) hereof, an amount
equal to the amount of the claim asserted, subject to final resolution of such
claim, and (ii) upon such final resolution, to offset against said balance of
the Purchase Price an amount equal to the amount for which the Corporation was
determined to be liable.

under this Agreement may be made more than 100 days from the Closing, except
with respect to Taxes as to which claims for indemnification may be made within
the applicable statute of limitations. No claim of the Seller for
indemnification by the Buyers under this Agreement may be made more than 100
days from the Closing. At the end of the aforesaid 100-day period, all
