The representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive Closing for two years following the Closing Date and shall thereupon expire together with any right to indemnification in respect thereof. The foregoing notwithstanding, such right to indemnification shall continue to the extent a Notice of Claim asserting a claim for breach of any such representation or warranty shall have been given to the Indemnifying Party, pursuant to Section 8.3 prior to the expiration of such expiration date. The representations and warranties of the parties to this Agreement shall not be affected by any examination made by or on behalf of any other party hereto or by the knowledge of any of such parties' officers, directors, shareholders, employees or agents. 8.2 Mutual Agreement to Indemnify. Subject to Section 8.1, each party (the "Indemnifying Party") shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party hereto and any Affiliate of the other party and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the "Indemnified Group") from and against any and all Damages incurred or suffered by any of the Indemnified Group to the extent that the Damages arise by reason of, or result from (a) the failure of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement to have been true when made and as of the Closing Date; (b) the breach of any covenant or agreement made or to be performed by the Indemnifying Party contained herein to the extent not waived by the other party hereto or (c) any Money Claim or Equitable Claim arising out of any Action brought by any third party, not disclosed in a Schedule, which is based on an act or omission or a state of facts existing prior to the Closing. For the purposes of this Section 8.2, each of Buyer and EVCI (collectively) and Sellers (collectively) is a party. The obligations of each such party to indemnify the other party shall be joint and several. 33 8.3 Notice of Claims. The member of the Indemnified Group seeking indemnification under this Agreement (the "Indemnified Party") shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of any fact upon which the Indemnified Party intends to base a claim for indemnification hereunder ("Notice of Claim"). A Notice of Claim shall in all events be considered prompt if given (a) no later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party discovers a fact or facts giving rise to a right of indemnification or (b) if later, in sufficient time to allow the Indemnifying Party to exercise its rights pursuant to this Article VIII, provided, however, that a Notice of Claim must in all events be given prior to the date specified in Section 8.1 on which the applicable representation or warranty ceases to survive. The failure to provide a Notice of Claim promptly shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that such failure adversely affects the ability of the Indemnifying Party to defend against the claim asserted therein. 8.4 Direct Claims. If the Indemnifying Party does not respond or objects to a demand for indemnification of a direct claim made under this Section 8.4, or to all or any portion of its amount, the demand for indemnification and the amount to which the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, if any, shall be determined by (i) the subsequent written agreement of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, as of the date of such agreement, or (ii) a final award made under an arbitration proceeding conducted in accordance with Article IX hereof, as of the date such award becomes final. 8.5 Third Party Claims. (a) If Damages arise out of an Action brought by a third party, seeking recovery of money damages only or is, or includes, an Action for equitable relief which, if successful, would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Indemnified Party (a "Money Claim"), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, in its sole discretion and at its own expense, to assume the defense of such Money Claim, with counsel of its choosing, selection of such counsel to be subject to the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been expressly authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party for the defense of such Money Claim or (ii) the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such Money Claim within 30 days after receipt of a proper written Notice of Claim or such shorter period of time as is necessary to prevent the entry of a default judgment. In no event shall the Indemnifying Party be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel separate from its own counsel for the Indemnified Party in connection with any one Action or separate but similar or related Actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to settle or compromise any Money Claim without the consent of any Indemnifying Party and recover from an Indemnifying Party the amount paid in settlement or compromise thereof, if the Indemnified Party has given a proper written Notice of Claim thereof to the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Money Claim within 60 days after receipt of said Notice of Claim or such shorter period of time as is necessary to prevent the entry of a default judgment. Any 34 Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle or compromise any Money Claim against an Indemnified Party, provided that the terms of such settlement or compromise provide for the unconditional release of the Indemnified Party and require the payment of money damages only by the Indemnifying Party. (b) If Damages arise out of a third party claim seeking equitable relief alone or in addition to monetary damages and, if successful, would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Indemnified Party (an "Equitable Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to defend such Equitable Claim with counsel of its choosing at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of any Equitable Claim. The Indemnified Party shall make no settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment which would give rise to liability or obligation on the part of any Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (c) The parties shall extend reasonable cooperation to one another in connection with the defense of any third party claim pursuant to this Section 8.5 and, in connection therewith, shall furnish such records, information, and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials, and appeals as may be reasonably requested. (d) Any claim for indemnification that has been fixed as to amount and becomes payable is referred to as Determined Damages. 8.6 Effect of Insurance Proceeds. The amount of the Indemnifying Party's liability under this Agreement shall be determined taking into account any applicable insurance proceeds actually received by, and other savings that actually reduce the overall impact of the Damages upon, the Indemnified Party. 8.7 Exclusive Remedy. The indemnification provided in this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy after the Closing Date for Damages. 8.8 Reductions and Subrogation. If the amount of any Damages at any time subsequent to the making of payment of Determined Damages is reduced by any recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person, the amount of such reduction (less any costs, expenses (including taxes) or premiums incurred in connection therewith), together with interest thereon from the date of payment thereof at the Prime Rate, shall promptly be repaid by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party. Upon making a full payment of Determined Damages, the Indemnifying Party shall, to the extent of such Damage Payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party that is not an Affiliate of the Indemnified Party in respect of the Damages to which the payment of Determined Damages relates but only if the Indemnifying Party shall then be in compliance with its obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Determined Damages. Until the Indemnified Party recovers full payment of its Determined Damages, any and all claims of the Indemnifying Party against any such third party on account of such Payment shall be postponed and subordinated in right of payment to the Indemnified Party's rights against such third party. Without limiting the 35 generality or effect of any other provision hereof, the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect such postponement and subordination. 8.9 Interest. All Damages shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate, calculated and payable monthly, both before and after the date they become Determined Damages, with interest on overdue interest at the same rate, from the date that the Indemnified Party, suffered Damages, to the date of payment of Determined Damages to the Indemnified Party. 8.10 Right of Offset. Buyer, EVCI and ICTS shall have the right to offset against any obligation to Sellers, under any other agreement to which either of them and any of Buyer, EVCI or ICTS is a party, all or any portion of any Damages. 8.11 No Right of Contribution. No Seller shall have any claim against ICTS for any breach by ICTS of this Agreement resulting in Damages to Buyer or EVCI. ARTICLE IX ARBITRATION 9.1 Arbitration.

The arbitration shall be governed by the rules of the American Arbitration Association and the arbitration shall be before a single arbitrator. It shall be a condition precedent to the bringing of any legal proceedings that are contemplated by such rules that the parties will have concluded the arbitration process as provided by such rules. 36 ARTICLE X CONFIDENTIALITY 10.1 Confidential Information.
