and against all claims, damages, actions, suits, proceedings, demands,
assessments, adjustments, costs and expenses, including specifically, but
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses of investigation,
incurred by the Shareholders as a result of or arising from (i) any breach by
32
ICCE or any Acquisition Company of its representations and warranties set forth
herein, (ii) any material breach of any obligation of ICCE or any Acquisition
Company hereunder, or (iii) any liabilities which the Shareholders may incur
due to ICCE's failure to be responsible for the liabilities and obligations of
a Company (except to the extent that ICCE has claims against the Shareholders
by reason of such liabilities).
11.4 Claims. Each person to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 11
(an "Indemnitee") shall, within five days after the discovery by the Indemnitee
of any matters giving arise to a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section
11.2 or 11.3, give written notice to the person or persons responsible for
indemnifying such Indemnitee (an "Indemnifying Party") setting forth any claim
with respect to which the Indemnitee seeks indemnification, provided that the
failure of any Indemnitee to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve
the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article XI except to the
extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to
give notice. In case any such action, proceeding or claim is brought against
any Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and,
unless in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Indemnitee a conflict of
interest between such Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party may exist in
respect of such action, proceeding or claim, assume the defense thereof, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. After notice from the
Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee of their election so to assume such
defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnitee for any
legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection
with such defense other than reasonable costs of investigation. In any event,
unless and until the Indemnifying Party elects in writing to assume and does so
assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the Indemnitee's
costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any
such action, claim or proceeding shall be considered losses subject to
indemnification hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend any such
action or claim, then the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in such
defense with counsel of their choice at their sole cost and expense. The
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim
or proceeding effected without its written consent, provided, however, that the
Indemnifying Party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its
consent. Anything in this Section 11.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnitee's prior written consent
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise any
claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any
future obligation on the Indemnitee or which does not include, as an
unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the
Indemnitee, a release from all liability in respect of such claim.
11.5 Exclusive Remedy. The indemnification provided in this Article XI
shall (except as prohibited by ERISA) be the exclusive remedy in any action
seeking damages or any other form of monetary relief brought by any party to
this Agreement against another party, provided that, nothing herein shall be
construed to limit the right of a party, in a proper case, to seek injunctive
relief for a breach of this Agreement.
11.6 Limitations on Indemnification. ICCE and the other persons
indemnified pursuant to Section 11.2 shall not assert any claim (other than a
claim arising from a third party claim) for indemnification hereunder against
any Shareholder until such time as, and solely to the extent that, the
aggregate of all claims which such persons may have against such Shareholders
33
shall exceed $50,000 (the "Indemnification Threshold"). Shareholders shall not
assert any claim (other than a claim arising from a third person's claim) for
indemnification hereunder against ICCE until such time as, and solely to the
extent that, the aggregate of all claims which Shareholders may have against
ICCE shall exceed $50,000.
Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement (except the proviso to
this sentence), no Shareholder shall be liable under this Article XI for an
amount which exceeds the fair market value (at the time when the amount of
liability is determined) of the ICCE stock received by such Shareholder in
connection with the Merger, provided that a Shareholder's indemnification
obligations pursuant to Section 11.2(iv) shall not be so limited.
XII. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT
12.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to
the Closing Date by the unanimous mutual consent of the boards of directors of
ICCE and all of the Companies. Any Company may withdraw from this Agreement
after May 15, 1997, if the Closing has not occurred provided that such Company
has paid its pro rata share (based on the number of shares of ICCE Stock to be
received in the Merger pursuant hereto) of all expenses incurred in connection
herewith, including its share of all professional fees.
XIII. GENERAL
13.1 Cooperation. Each of the Companies, its Shareholders, and ICCE shall
deliver or cause to be delivered to the others on the Closing Date, and at such
other times and places as shall be reasonably agreed to, such additional
instruments as the other may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out
this Agreement. Each of the Companies will cooperate and use its reasonable
efforts to have the present officers, directors and employees of such Company
cooperate with ICCE on and after the Closing Date in furnishing information,
evidence, testimony and other assistance in connection with any tax return
filing obligations, actions, proceedings, arrangements or disputes of any
nature with respect to matters pertaining to all periods prior to the Closing
Date.
13.2 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the rights of the parties
hereunder may not be assigned (except by operation of law) and shall be binding
upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, the successors of
ICCE and the Companies, and the heirs and legal representatives of the
Shareholders.
13.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the schedules and
exhibits attached hereto) and the documents delivered pursuant hereto
constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and
supersede any prior agreement and understanding relating to the subject matter
of this Agreement, except for paragraphs 4 (relating to confidential
information) and 5 (relating to announcements) of the Memo of Understanding,
which shall remain in effect. This Agreement, upon execution, constitutes a
valid and binding agreement of the parties hereto enforceable in accordance
with its terms and may be modified or amended only by a written instrument
34
executed by the parties hereto. Any disclosure made on any Schedule delivered
pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have been disclosed for purposes of any
other Schedule required hereby.
13.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two
or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of
which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
13.5 Brokers and Agents. Each party represents and warrants that it
employed no broker or agent in connection with this transaction and agrees to
indemnify the other parties hereto against all loss, cost, damages or expense
arising out of claims for fees or commission of brokers employed or alleged to
have been employed by such indemnifying party.
13.6 Expenses. Whether or not the transactions herein contemplated shall
be consummated, ICCE will pay all of the reasonable fees, expenses and
disbursements of ICCE and its agents, representatives, accountants and counsel
incurred in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement and any
amendments thereto, including all costs and expenses incurred in the
performance and compliance with all conditions to be performed by ICCE under
this Agreement, including the fees and expenses of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP, and
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Scarborough, L.L.P. provided, however, that ICCE shall
obtain the prior approval of each of the Companies for any expenses to be
incurred from and after the date hereof and prior to the Closing in excess of
$100,000. In connection therewith, each Company shall be responsible for
paying into ICCE a sufficient amount to cover its pro rata share of such
expenses, based on the percentage of ICCE Stock to be received by such
Company's Shareholder(s) pursuant to the Merger. Each Shareholder shall pay
his or her own personal professional fees necessary to consummate this
transaction, and all sales, use, transfer, and other similar taxes and fees
imposed in connection with the Merger. Each Shareholder shall file all
necessary documentation and Returns with respect to such taxes. Each Company
shall pay all legal and accounting fees incurred by such Company in connection
with this transaction. If the transactions herein contemplated are not
consummated, the remaining balance of the assets of ICCE after payment of all
transaction expenses will be reimbursed to the Companies on a pro rata basis
based on the percentage of ICCE Stock to be received by such Company's
Shareholder(s) pursuant to the Merger.

Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall, to the extent

is not possible, such provision shall be severed from this Agreement, and in
either case the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby unless severing such provision(s) results in this Agreement not
providing reasonable assurance to a party that he or it will receive
substantially all of the benefits he or it bargained for.

convenience only, shall not constitute a part of this Agreement or be used to
