months beginning February 1, 1999 and ending December 31, 1999, divided by 11
and multiplied by 12. This indemnification obligation shall be in accordance
with the following terms:
(a) The indemnification recourse by Buyer shall be solely limited to
the value of 150,000 shares of the Common Stock, hereafter defined
(referred to herein as the "Escrowed Stock"), but not to exceed
$1,000,000 in any event.
(b) The Escrowed Stock shall be delivered to the escrow agent listed

reasonable supporting documentation therefore prepared in accordance
with GAAP to the extent applicable. The notice of claim shall be
submitted by Buyer to the Company no later than January 31, 2000 for
any claim hereunder. The Company will then have thirty (30) days
from receipt of the notice of claim of Buyer to respond. If the
Company disputes such calculations of the Claim Amount, the Company
shall, within said thirty (30) day period, advise Buyer in writing
and submit supporting
-5-

documentation of its position. If the Company fails to respond and
submit such required supporting documentation within said thirty
(30) day period, then Buyer's submitted Claim Amount shall be deemed
accepted by the Company and shall be binding, final and conclusive.
(d) Any amount due to be paid to Buyer hereunder as a Claim Amount
shall be paid by the Escrow Agent out of the Escrowed Stock in the

less than One Million ($1,000,000) Dollars and is insufficient to
pay the Claim Amount, the Company and Xxxxx, jointly and severally,

SECTION 2. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES;

Agreement, notwithstanding any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of
the other party, provided that any claims for indemnification in accordance with
Article II, Section 2 below with respect to any representation
-12-
13
or warranty must be made (and will be null and void unless made) on or before
the date eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date (except in the case of
representations contained in Paragraphs (B)(vi), (G), (I) and (J) of Article I,
Section 2 hereof, which must be made within six (6) months following the
expiration of the applicable statute of limitations).
(B) The Company and the Shareholders, jointly and severally, hereby
agree to indemnify and hold Buyer, Parent, and their respective officers,
directors, stockholders, affiliates, employees, representatives and other agents
harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages or
injuries, together with costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees,
arising out of or resulting from (i) any breach, misrepresentation or material
omission of the representations and warranties made by the Company and/or the
Shareholders in this Agreement or in any Exhibit hereto or other documents
delivered in connection herewith, (ii) any breach in any material respect by the
Company and/or the Shareholders, or any of them, unless waived in writing by the
Buyer, of any covenant or agreement contained in or arising out of this
Agreement, or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith on the
Closing Date, including without limitation, the Employment Agreement to be
entered into at the Closing between Xxxxx and Parent, (iii) the Business
conducted by the Company prior to the Closing Date and any actions or events

the Assumed Liabilities, and (v) any failure by the Shareholders or the Company
to comply with any provisions of the bulk sales or similar laws of any
jurisdiction which are applicable to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Shareholder shall be
responsible for more than his or her pro rata share of such liability based on
their respective stock ownership of the Company as of the Closing as set forth
on Exhibit A hereto. The obligations of the Company and the Shareholders
pursuant to this Paragraph (B) of this Section shall be limited to an aggregate
amount not in excess of the Purchase Price. Neither the Buyer nor the Parent
shall make any claim hereunder unless and until the aggregate amount of such
claim exceeds $25,000; provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of claims
by the Buyer or the Parent exceeds $25,000, the obligations of the Company and
Shareholders hereunder shall be with respect to the entire amount of such
claims.
(C) Buyer and Parent hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Company
and the Shareholders harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities,
losses, damages or injuries, together with costs and expenses, including
reasonable legal fees, arising out of or resulting from (i) any breach,
misrepresentation or material omission in the representations and warranties
made by the Buyer and/or Parent in this Agreement, (ii) any breach in any

(D) Any party claiming a right to indemnification hereunder (the
"Indemnified Party") shall give the other party from whom indemnification is
sought (the "Indemnifying Party") prompt written notice of any claim, demand,
action, suit, proceeding or discovery of fact upon which the Indemnified Party
intends to base a claim for indemnification under this Section
-13-
14
2, provided, however, that no failure to give such notice shall excuse any
Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder except to the extent the
Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnified
Party shall have full responsibility and authority with respect to the
disposition of any action, suit or proceeding brought against it; provided,
however, that it will not settle any such action, suit or proceeding without the
prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which will not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. In the event any action, suit or proceeding is brought
against the Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party may
have liability under the indemnity agreements contained in Paragraphs (B) and
(C) of Article II, Section 2 hereof, the Indemnifying Party shall have the
right, without prejudice to the Indemnified Party's rights under this Agreement,
at the Indemnifying Party's sole expense, to be represented by counsel of its
own choosing and with whom counsel for the Indemnified Party shall confer in
connection with the defense of any such action, suit, or proceeding. The
Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party and its counsel
and accountants, all books and records of the Indemnified Party relating to such
action, suit or proceeding and the parties agree to render to each other such
assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and
adequate defense of any such action, suit or proceeding.
(E) On the Closing Date, one hundred twenty thousand (120,000) of
the four hundred fifty thousand (450,000) shares of the Common Stock which is
part of the Purchase Price (the "Escrowed Amount") shall be delivered to the
escrow agent listed on Exhibit A (the "Escrow Agent") to be held in escrow in
accordance with the terms of a separate escrow agreement to be entered into
between the parties (the "Indemnity Escrow Agreement") on or prior to the
Closing Date. The Escrowed Amount will be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent as
security for any indemnification obligation of the Company and the Shareholders,
or any of them, to Buyer pursuant to the terms of Article II, Section 2,
Paragraph (B) of this Agreement. Indemnity claims by Buyer pursuant to said
Paragraph (B) shall be satisfied first by the reduction of the Escrowed Amount
until the termination of the Indemnity Escrow Agreement and thereafter by the
Company and the Shareholders, jointly and severally. The Escrowed Amount does
not constitute a limit on the liability of the Company and the Shareholders to
Buyer hereunder, it being understood and agreed that the Company and each of the
Shareholders, shall remain jointly and severally liable to satisfy the amount of
such claims which exceed the Escrowed Amount. The Escrowed Amount shall be held
by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of the Indemnity Escrow Agreement
which shall be agreed upon and entered into by the Escrow Agent, the Company,
the Shareholders and Buyer on or before the Closing Date. Among other things,
the Indemnity Escrow Agreement will provide that on March 31, 2000, the Escrow
Agent shall deliver to the Company or its designee the Common Stock then being
held by the Escrow Agent, if any, as has not previously been applied pursuant to
the terms of said Indemnity Escrow Agreement, unless an indemnification claim by
Buyer against the Company and/or the Shareholders is then pending.
SECTION 3. AUDIT FEES. If, as and when the Closing occurs, Buyer
will pay 50% of the accounting fees incurred by the Company in obtaining the
audited financial statements described in Article I, Section 2(C), in excess of
$40,000, inclusive of fees paid to Tai Sung, CPA and Xxxxxx, Xxxx & Worlin.

filings under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to the Common
Stock.
