exceed $1,543,750, payable as follows:
2.2.1 On the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx,

Section 8 of this Agreement. Buyer's parent company shall guarantee payment of
the Note in accordance with a guaranty agreement substantially in the form of
Exhibit B (the "Guaranty").
---------
2.3 Adjustments to Purchase Price.
-----------------------------
2.3.1 The "Adjustment Amount" means the greater of (a) the amount, if
any, by which $1,049,000 exceeds the stockholders' equity of F&R (calculated in
accordance with Section
-5-
2.3.2) as of the Closing Date, and (b) the amount, if any, by which $859,000
exceeds the Working Capital of F&R (calculated in accordance with Section 2.3.2)
as of the Closing Date.
2.3.2 Sellers shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Buyer, at the
Sellers expense, within 45 days of the Closing Date, a balance sheet compiled in
accordance with GAAP (subject to and prepared in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2.3.4) and an income statement, compiled in accordance with GAAP, of
F&R dated as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Financial Statement"). If, within
45 days following Sellers' delivery of the Closing Financial Statement, Buyer
has not given to Sellers notice of its objection to the Closing Financial
Statement, then the Closing Financial Statement shall be deemed final and
binding and used to determine the Adjustment Amount. If Buyer gives notice of
its objection with respect to any items contained in the Closing Financial
Statement other than "F&R's ETC's" (as defined in Section 2.3.3), then the
issues in dispute will be promptly submitted to the respective certified public
accounting firms of Sellers and Buyer (the "Accountants") for resolution. If the
issues in dispute are submitted to the Accountants for resolution, then (a) each
party shall cooperate with the Accountants to resolve the dispute, (b) the
determination by the Accountants, as set forth in a notice delivered to both
parties by the Accountants within 30 days of their receipt of all materials
necessary to render a decision, will be binding and conclusive on the parties
and (c) Buyer and the Sellers will each bear the costs and fees of their own
Accountants in connection with such determination. If the Accountants fail,
within such 30 day period, to resolve any issues in dispute that have been
submitted to them, then the Accountants shall jointly select a third reputable
certified public accounting firm (the "Third Party Accountants") who shall,
within 30 days of its receipt of all materials necessary to render a decision,
conclusively resolve any such issues still in dispute. Buyer and Sellers will
(a) cooperate with the Third Party Accountants to resolve the dispute, (b) be
bound by the decision of the Third Party Accountants and (c) each bear 50% of
the Third Party Accountants' fees for such determination.
2.3.3 The Closing Financial Statement shall also be accompanied by
Sellers' estimates, as to each applicable Contract, of the costs to complete
F&R's such customer Contracts (other than cost-reimbursable Contracts) that have
not been completed as of the Closing Date ("F&R's ETC's"). F&R's ETC's as of the
Closing Date shall consist of those ETC's attributable to Contracts furnished
Buyer at May 31, 1996, reduced by actual costs incurred between May 31, 1996 and
the Closing Date. If Buyer gives notice of its objection to Sellers' calculation
of F&R's ETC's within 45 days following Buyer's receipt of the Closing Financial
Statement and submits with such notice its own good faith calculation (as to
each applicable Contract) of F&R's ETC's that differ by an aggregate of more
than ten percent from Sellers' calculation of F&R's ETC's, then the parties
shall promptly attempt to resolve their differing calculations of F&R's ETC's.
If Sellers and Buyer are unable to resolve their differing calculations, then
the matter shall be referred to the Arbitrator who will submit a third
calculation (as to each applicable Contract) of F&R's ETC's. In such event, (a)
Buyer and Sellers shall each cooperate with the Arbitrator, (b) the Arbitrator
shall submit his calculation (as to each applicable contract) of F&R's ETC's to
Buyer and Sellers within 30 days of his receipt of all materials necessary to
render a calculation and (c) Buyer and Sellers will each bear 50% of the
Arbitrator's fees. Of the three calculations of F&R's ETC's, Buyer and Sellers
shall be bound by the calculation (as to each applicable Contract) that falls
between the other two and such
-6-
calculation shall be used to adjust the Closing Financial Statement and the
Adjustment Amount. If (a) Buyer's aggregate calculation of F&R's ETC's does not
differ by more than ten percent from Sellers' aggregate calculation of F&R's
ETC's or (b) if Buyer does not object to Sellers' calculation of F&R's ETC's
within the 45 day period following Buyer's receipt of the Closing Financial
Statement, then Buyer and Sellers shall be bound by Sellers' calculation of
F&R's ETC's.
2.3.4 For purposes of calculating the Adjustment Amount, the following
provisions shall apply:
(a) Assets shall not include any intangible Assets of F&R,
including without limitation goodwill and shall include Inventory Subject to
Setoff (as defined in Section 1.19);
(b) Assets include up to $64,320 in deferred Tax Assets of F&R; and
(c) Liabilities shall include all accrued expenses of F&R and shall
not include Liabilities of F&R for vacation pay or sick pay.
2.3.5 Consistent with Section 2.2.1, Buyer shall deposit in cash on the
Closing Date into an escrow account pursuant to an escrow agreement
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C (the "Escrow Agreement") a total
---------
of $500,000 that would have otherwise been paid as part of the cash component of
the Purchase Price on the Closing Date. The Escrow Agreement shall provide,
among other things, that on the tenth business day (the "Adjustment Date")
following the final determination of the Adjustment Amount, if any, the Trust
and the Buyer shall jointly instruct the escrow agent under the Escrow Agreement
to promptly disburse to Buyer in cash the Adjustment Amount, plus accrued
interest thereon pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. In addition, on
the Adjustment Date, the Escrow Agent shall also disburse to the Trust, the
excess (plus accrued interest thereon), if any, of the amount in the Escrow Fund
over $100,000 with respect to which a Claim (as defined in the Escrow Agreement)
has not been made, provided that if the Adjustment Date occurs prior to the date
that is 85 days from the date hereof, then the Escrow Agent shall continue to
retain in the escrow account at least $300,000, of which $200,000 shall be
disbursed to the Trust on the date that is 86 days from the date hereof but only
to the extent that no Claim with respect to such $200,000 has been made. On the
first anniversary of the Closing Date, Escrow Agent shall disburse to the Trust
the amount (plus accrued interest thereon) in the escrow account over $50,000,
with respect to which a Claim (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) has not been
made. On the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the escrow agent shall
disburse to the Trust the escrow funds, if any, that remain, except for such
funds subject to a Claim under the Escrow Agreement. Buyer shall have the right
at its election to substitute for the escrow an unconditional and irrevocable
letter of credit or guaranty of a United States banking institution, provided
that the terms of the escrow shall not in any event vary from the provisions of
this Section 2.3.5.
2.3.6 Additional Escrow Conditions. To the extent that any employee of
----------------------------
F&R as of the Closing Date continues from and after such date to be employed
by Buyer or F&R, then, during the two year period following the Closing Date, if
such employee utilizes sick time earned and
-7-
accrued while an employee of F&R, Sellers shall be responsible for the payment
of such sick time, not to exceed 20 working days, less sick time earned and
accrued by such employee while an employee of Orbit or F&R from and after the
Closing ("Sick Pay Escrow"). From and after the Closing Date, Sellers shall also
be responsible for any Losses of F&R that arise under or relate to (a) the

Losses"). Buyer shall be entitled, from time to time during the term of the
Escrow Agreement, to instruct the escrow agent under the Escrow Agreement to
disburse to Buyer from escrow such funds that relate to the Sick Pay Escrow and
the Additional Losses, provided that a copy of such instructions are also
delivered to Sellers and Buyer attests to the escrow agent that Sellers have
received a copy of such instructions. In addition, during the term of the Escrow
Agreement, Buyer shall pay into the escrow account any cash receipts (net of (a)
Buyer's reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred to recover such
receipts and (b) an additional fee equal to 50% of such net cash receipts) that
relate to claims submitted by F&R prior to the Closing Date to the United States
government, or agency thereof, for past-year indirect rate adjustments on
projects conducted by F&R. Buyer will use reasonable efforts to comply with and
support any reasonable inquiries or requests by the United States government in

agreements made by Sellers, F&R and Buyer in this Agreement are continuing and
shall survive, for a period of two years after the Closing Date (except with
respect to Sections 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.19, 3.21, 3.24, and 3.27 which shall
survive for the applicable statute of limitations period), the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement, the delivery of the other documents,
certifications, lists and instruments, and any investigation or inspection at
any time made by or on behalf of Buyer. No information furnished by Sellers and
F&R pursuant to this Agreement will operate as a waiver of any of Buyer's rights
for any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty which is disclosed by such
information. Each warranty, representation and agreement contained in this
Agreement is independent of all other warranties, representations and agreements
contained in this Agreement (whether or not covering an identical or related
subject matter) and must be independently and separately complied with and
satisfied. No representation or warranty or agreement made in this Agreement
will be limited in its construction by reference to or from any other such
provision. The right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based on
such representations, warranties, covenants and Obligations will not be affected
by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any Knowledge acquired about
the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation,
warranty, covenant or Obligation, unless such Knowledge is acquired from this
Agreement or the Schedules to this Agreement.

-22-
8.3 Indemnification Notice. With respect to each event, occurrence or matter
----------------------
("Indemnification Matter") as to which Buyer Group on one hand, or the Sellers'
Group on the other hand (in either case, an "Indemnitee") is entitled to
indemnification from the other ("Indemnitor") under this Section 8, within 15
days after Indemnitee receives any written documents underlying the
Indemnification Matter or, if the Indemnification Matter does not involve a
third party action, suit, claim or demand, promptly after Indemnitee first has
actual knowledge of the Indemnification Matter, Indemnitee shall give notice to
Indemnitor of the nature of the Indemnification Matter ("Indemnification
Notice") and if the Indemnification matter involves a third party action, claim,
suit or demand, Indemnitor shall undertake the defense of such Indemnification
Matter by legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee.
8.4 Indemnification Matters. The obligations and liabilities of Indemnitor
-----------------------
under Section 8 with respect to an Indemnification Matter by third parties will
be subject to the following terms and conditions:
8.4.1 If within 15 days after Indemnification Notice, Indemnitor fails to
defend against such Indemnification Matter, Indemnitee will have the right to
undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Indemnification Matter
on behalf of and for the account and at the risk and expense of Indemnitor
subject to the right of Indemnitor to assume (with Indemnitee's consent) the
defense of such Indemnification Matter at any time prior to settlement,
compromise or final determination of such Indemnification Matter.
8.4.2 Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 8 to the contrary,
(a) if there is a reasonable probability that (i) an Indemnification Matter may
materially and adversely affect Indemnitee other than as a result of money
damages or other money payments or (ii) Indemnitor cannot provide Indemnitee
with adequate assurance that it is capable of fulfilling its indemnification
obligations under this Section 8, Indemnitee will have the right to defend, co-
defend, reasonably compromise or settle such Indemnification Matter without
Indemnitor's approval but after giving Indemnitor three days prior notice of
such compromise or settlement and (b) Indemnitor will not, without the prior
written consent of Indemnitee, settle or compromise any Indemnification Matter
or consent to entry of any Judgment relating to any such Indemnification Matter,
which settlement, compromise or Judgment does not include as an unconditional
term the release of Indemnitee by the claimant in respect of such
Indemnification Matter. Indemnitee will have the right to participate in any
defense of an Indemnification Matter at any time at its own expense and
Indemnitor will cooperate and cause its counsel to fully and promptly cooperate
with Indemnitee and its counsel with respect to its participation in the defense
of the Indemnification Matter.
8.4.3 Indemnitor and Indemnitee will cooperate with each other to furnish
access to all records and documents of Indemnitor relating to any
Indemnification Matter.
8.5 Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided in this Section 8 are
-------------------
cumulative and will not preclude assertion by Indemnitee of any other rights or
the seeking of any other remedies
-23-
against any other party to this Agreement. Indemnitor's liability under this
Section 8 shall not extend to claims for which Indemnitee has received proceeds
under insurance policies covering such claims.
8.6 Setoff and Escrow. In addition to all other rights and remedies that the
-----------------
Indemnitee may have, the Indemnitee shall have the right to (a) setoff, against
any monies due to the Indemnitor (whether under this Agreement, the Note, or
otherwise), any sums for which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
under this Section 8 or any other sums that the Indemnitee may owe to the
Indemnitor (whether under this Agreement, the Note or otherwise) or (b) give
notice of a claim in the amount to which it is entitled under this Section 8 in
accordance with the Escrow Agreement. The Indemnitee's rights to indemnification
under this Section 8 shall under no circumstances be in any manner limited by
this right of setoff or escrow. If any Indemnification Matters are pending at
the time the Indemnitee is required to make any payment to the Indemnitor
(whether under this Agreement or otherwise), then the Indemnitee shall have the
right, upon notice to the Indemnitor, to withhold from such payment, until final
determination of such Indemnification Matters, the total amount for which the
Indemnitor may become liable as a result thereof, determined by the Indemnitee
reasonably and in good faith.
8.7 Inventory Setoff. On the second anniversary of the Closing Date,
----------------
Buyer shall setoff against the principal sum under the Note the value, if any,
of all Inventory Subject to Setoff which remains in inventory (as defined in
Section 1.19), less $45,000. Buyer shall use best efforts to give reasonable
preference to the use of inventory included within Inventory Subject to Setoff
over inventory of similar character and shall at its option, either (i) on such
date transfers to Sellers title to any Inventory Subject to Setoff, at Sellers'
expense, or (ii) pays to Sellers ten percent of the value of all Inventory
Subject to Setoff.
8.8 Limitation. Sellers shall have no Obligation to indemnify Buyer or F&R
----------
for Losses under this Section 8 to the extent that such Losses in the aggregate
exceed $1,650,000, as such amount may be adjusted by Buyer's setoff rights and
disbursements from escrow.
SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS
-------------
9.1 Confidentiality. All information, data, disclosures and other
---------------
proprietary information furnished to the Sellers pertaining to Buyer, and to
Buyer pertaining to Sellers, shall be deemed confidential, except for
information which is or becomes generally available to the public other than as
a result of a breach of this Agreement. Except as required by Law or in the
event of a Proceeding arising from this Agreement, none of the parties shall
disclose the financial terms of this Agreement to any Person other than to their
respective professional advisors for purposes of such advisors assisting such
parties, as the case may be, in negotiating and performing this Agreement and
complying with all applicable Tax Laws. The parties shall cause their
professional advisers to treat all information concerning the parties to this
Agreement and the terms of this Agreement as confidential.

(individually, a "Releasee" and collectively, "Releases") from any and all
claims, demands, actions, causes of action, judgments, obligations, contracts,
agreements, debts and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown,
suspected or unsuspected, both at law and in equity, which the Sellers (or their
respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns) now have,
have ever had or may hereafter have against the respective Releases arising on
or prior to the Closing Date or on account of or arising out of any matter,
cause or event occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, including, but not
limited to, any rights to indemnification or reimbursement from Buyer, whether
pursuant to its organizational documents, contract or otherwise and whether or
not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the Closing Date;
provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 9.2 shall operate to
-------- -------
release any Obligations of Buyer or F&R arising under this Agreement as a result
of its default or failure to meet its Obligations after the Closing Date or to
the extent that Buyer succeeds to the Obligations of F&R as a result of its
purchase of the Shares. Sellers hereby irrevocably covenant to refrain from,
directly or indirectly, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing,
instituting or causing to be commenced, any suit, action or proceeding of any
kind in any court or before any tribunal, based upon any matter purported to be
released hereby against any Releasee.
