6.4 Taxes. Seller has filed or caused to be filed all federal, state

with respect to Seller, pursuant to applicable law. All such returns were
correct and complete in all respects. Seller has paid, or has provided for the

returns or otherwise, or pursuant to any assessment received by Seller, except
such taxes, if any, as are listed in Schedule 6.4 and are being contested in
good faith and as to which adequate reserves (determined in accordance with
GAAP) have been provided in the Financial Statements. Except as set forth in
Schedule 6.4, no audit of any tax return of Seller is in progress or, to
Seller's knowledge, threatened; no director, officer or employee of Seller
responsible for tax matters expects any governmental authority to assess any
additional taxes for any period for which tax returns have been filed; and no
waiver or agreement by Seller is in force for the extension of time for the
assessment or payment of any tax. To Seller's knowledge, no claim has ever been
made by any governmental authority in a jurisdiction where Seller does not file
tax returns that it is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction.
Seller has withheld and paid or collected and remitted all
taxes required to have been withheld and paid in connection with amounts paid or
owing to any employee, independent contractor, supplier, vendor, creditor,
stockholder or other third party. There is no dispute or claim concerning any
tax liability of Seller, (i) claimed or raised by any governmental authority in
writing or (ii) as to which Seller or the directors and officers of Seller has
knowledge. As of the date hereof, there have been no, and Seller has no
knowledge of any, threatened or intended reappraisals by any governmental
authority with respect to the value of the Assets.
6.5 Real Property. Seller does not own any real property.
6.6 Inventories. The Inventories consist of items of a quality and
quantity useable, salable or rentable in the ordinary course of business by
Seller, except for obsolete and slow-moving items and items below standard
quality, all of which have been written down on the books of Seller to net
realizable market value or have been provided for by adequate reserves. All
items included in the Inventories are the property of Seller, except for sales
made in the ordinary course of business; for each of these sales either the
purchaser has made full payment or the purchaser's liability to make payment is
reflected in the books of Seller. No items included in the Inventories have been
pledged as collateral or are held by Seller on consignment from the others. All
the Inventories are free of defects and, to the extent that they consist of
finished or semi-finished goods, also comply with the specifications submitted
by the purchasers thereof.
6.7 Intellectual Property. Schedule 6.7 lists all of the Intellectual
Property owned or used by Seller in connection with the Business (other than
shrink wrap software generally available to the public). No person (other than
Seller) owns any Intellectual Property, the use of which is necessary or
contemplated in connection with the performance of any contract to which Seller
is a party, except manufacturer's trademarks and trade names on goods sold in
Seller's Business. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.7 or 6.15, there have not
been any administrative, judicial arbitration, or other adversary proceedings
concerning the Intellectual Property. Seller does not violate or infringe on any
intellectual property or personal right of any person, firm or corporation, and
Seller has not infringed and is not now infringing on any intellectual property
or other right belonging to any person, firm or corporation. Except as set forth
in Schedule 6.7 or Schedule 1.1, Seller is not a party to any license, agreement
or arrangement, whether as licensee, licensor or otherwise, with respect to any
Intellectual Property.
7
6.8 Trade Secrets. Seller has taken all reasonable security measures to
protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all trade secrets used by
Seller (or owned by Seller and useful in) the operation of the Business. Any of
its employees and any other persons who, either alone or in concert with others,
developed, invented, discovered, derived, programmed or designed these secrets,
or who have knowledge of or access to information relating to them, have been
put on notice and have entered into appropriate agreements that these secrets
are proprietary to Seller and are not to be divulged or misused. All these trade
secrets are presently valid and protectible, and are not part of the public
knowledge or literature, nor to Seller's knowledge have they been used, divulged
or appropriated for the benefit of any past or present employees or other
persons, or to the detriment of Seller.
6.9 Title to Assets. Seller has good and marketable title to all the
Assets and its interests in the Assets, whether real, personal, mixed, tangible
or intangible, which constitute all the Assets and interests in Assets that are
used in the Business. All the Assets are free and clear of mortgages, liens,
pledges, charges, encumbrances, equities, claims, easements, rights of way,
covenants, conditions or restrictions, except for (i) those disclosed in
Schedule 6.9; (ii) the lien of current taxes not yet due and payable; and (iii)
possible minor matters that, in the aggregate, are not substantial in amount and
do not materially detract from or interfere with the present or intended use of
any of these assets, nor materially impair business operations. All the Assets
are in good operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted.
Seller is in possession of all premises leased to it from others. Neither any
officer, director or employee of Seller, nor any spouse, child or other relative
of any of these persons, owns, or has any interest, directly or indirectly, in
any of the real or personal property owned by or leased to Seller or any
Intellectual Property or trade secrets licensed by Seller.
6.10 Customers and Sales. Schedule 6.10 to this Agreement is a correct
and current list of all customers of Seller. Except as indicated in Schedule
6.10, Seller has no information and is not aware of any facts indicating that
any of these customers intend to cease doing business with Seller or materially
alter the amount of the business that they are presently doing with Seller.
6.11 Existing Employment Contracts. Schedule 6.11 to this Agreement is
a list of all employment contracts and collective bargaining agreements, and all
pension, bonus, profit-sharing, stock option or other agreements or arrangements
providing for employee remuneration or benefits to which Seller is a party or by
which Seller is bound. All of these contracts and arrangements are in full force
and effect, and neither Seller nor any other party is in default under them.
There have been no claims of defaults and, to Seller's knowledge, there are no
facts or conditions which if continued, or on notice, will result in a default
under these contracts or arrangements. There is no pending or, to Seller's
knowledge, threatened labor dispute, strike or work stoppage affecting the
Business.
8
6.12 Insurance Policies. Seller has maintained and now maintains (i)
insurance on all the Assets of a type customarily insured, covering property
damage and loss of income by fire or other casualty, and (ii) adequate insurance
protection against all liabilities, claims and risks against which it is
customary to insure, including without limitation earthquakes as to properties
located in California.
6.13 Other Contracts. Except as set forth in Schedule 1.1 or Schedule
4, Seller is not a party to, nor are the Assets bound by, any license or service
agreement, any output or requirements agreement, any agreement not entered into
in the ordinary course of business, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
lease or any other agreement that is unusual in nature, duration or amount
(including without limitation any agreement requiring the performance by Seller
of any obligation for a period of time extending beyond one year from the
Closing Date or calling for consideration of more than $25,000 or requiring
purchases at prices in excess of, or sales at prices lower than, prevailing
market prices). All contracts which will be assigned to or assumed by Buyer
under this Agreement are valid and binding upon the parties thereto. There is no
default or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a
default by any party to any of the agreements listed in Schedule 1.1 or Schedule
4. Seller has not received notice that any party to any of the agreements listed
in Schedule 1.1 or Schedule 4 intends to cancel or terminate any of these
agreements or to exercise or not exercise any options under any of these
agreements.
6.14 Compliance with Laws. Seller has complied with, and is not in
violation of, applicable federal, state or local statutes, laws and regulations
(including without limitation any applicable environmental, health, building,
zoning or other law, ordinance or regulation) affecting its properties or the
operation of the Business. Seller is in possession of all permits, licenses,
franchises, consents or authorizations issued by and in compliance with all
registrations and filings required by any governmental authority in connection
with the Business or the Assets. All of such permits, licenses, franchises and
authorizations are valid and in full force and effect.
6.15 Litigation. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.15, there is no
suit, action, arbitration or legal, administrative or other proceeding, or
governmental investigation, pending or, to Seller's knowledge, threatened
against or affecting Seller, or any of its business, assets or financial
condition. The matters set forth in Schedule 6.15, if decided adversely to
Seller, will not result in a material adverse change in the business, assets or
financial condition of Seller. Seller has furnished or made available to Buyer
copies of all relevant court papers and other documents relating to the matters
set forth in Schedule 6.15. Seller is not in default with respect to any order,
writ, injunction or decree of any federal, state, local or foreign court,
department, agency or instrumentality. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.15,
Seller is not presently engaged in any legal action to recover moneys due to it
or damages sustained by it.
9
6.16 Assets Sufficient for Conduct of Business. The Assets, together
with the Excluded Assets, constitute all of the assets required for Buyer to
conduct the Business as it is presently conducted.
6.17 Agreement Will Not Cause Breach or Violation. Neither the entry
into this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
will result in or constitute any of the following: (i) a breach of any term or
provision of this Agreement; (ii) a default or an event that, with notice or
lapse of time or both, would be a default, breach or violation of the
certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Seller or of any lease, license,
promissory note, conditional sales contract, commitment, indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust or other agreement, instrument or arrangement to which Seller is a
party or by which Seller or the Assets are bound; (iii) an event that would
permit any party to terminate any agreement or to accelerate the maturity of any
indebtedness or other obligation; (iv) the creation or imposition of any lien,
charge or encumbrance on any of the Assets; or (v) the violation of any law,
regulation, ordinance, judgment, order or decree applicable to or affecting
Seller or the Assets.
6.18 Authority and Consents. Seller has the right, power, legal
capacity and authority to enter into, and perform its obligations under, this
Agreement, and, except as set forth on Schedule 6.18, no approvals or consents
of any persons other than the stockholders of Seller are necessary in connection
with it. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of
this transaction by Seller have been, or prior to the Closing will have been,
duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of Seller (including any
necessary action by Seller's stockholders). This Agreement constitutes a legal,
valid and binding obligation of Seller enforceable in accordance with its terms
except as limited by bankruptcy and insolvency laws and by other laws affecting

professional advisors) (collectively, "Losses") imposed on or incurred by
Buyer's Indemnified Persons, directly or indirectly, relating to, resulting from
or arising out of: (a) any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty, or any
breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant, agreement or other obligation of the
Seller under this Agreement, the schedules hereto or any certificate or other
document delivered or to be delivered pursuant hereto; and (b) any obligation of

indemnified party or any successor thereto (the "Indemnified Person") in respect
of which indemnity may be sought under this Article 12 from an indemnifying
person or any successor thereto (the "Indemnifying Person"), the Indemnified
Person shall give prompt written notice of such action or claim to the
Indemnifying Person who shall assume the defense thereof, including the
employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person and the
payment of all expenses; except that any delay or failure to so notify the
Indemnifying Person shall relieve the Indemnifying Person of its obligations
hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is prejudiced by reason of such
delay or failure. The Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any of the foregoing actions, claims or proceedings and to
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Person unless both the Indemnified
Person and the Indemnifying Person are named as parties and the Indemnified
Person shall in good faith determine that representation by the same counsel is
inappropriate due to material conflicts of interest. In the event that the
Indemnifying Person, within ten days after notice of any such action or claim,
fails to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Person shall have the right
to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such action, claim or
proceeding for the account of the Indemnifying Person, subject to the right of
the Indemnifying Person to assume to the defense of such action, claim or
proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person at any
time prior to the settlement, compromise or final determination thereof.
Anything in this Article 12 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Indemnifying
Person shall not, without the Indemnified Person's prior written consent, settle
or compromise any action or claim or proceeding or consent to entry of any
judgment with respect to any such action or claim that requires solely the
payment of money damages by the Indemnifying Person and that includes as an
unconditional term thereof the release by the claimant or the plaintiff of the
Indemnified Person from all liability in respect of such action, claim or
proceeding.
