          Section 3.03          Working Capital and Other Adjustments.

                    (a)               As soon as practicable (and in no event later than 90 days after the Closing Date), Parent shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Mr. Codina (i) a calculation of the Closing Working Capital (the “Working Capital Report”), including such schedules and data as may be reasonably appropriate to support such calculation and (ii) a report (the “Closing Date Cash Report”) detailing the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by each of Codina Group and its wholly owned subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, and each of the Codina Property Entities other than the Specified Entities as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Cash”). Mr. Codina and his accountants shall be entitled to review the Working Capital Report, the Closing Date Cash Report, and any working papers, trial balances and similar materials relating to the Closing Working Capital and Closing Date Cash prepared by Parent or its accountants.

-12-

                                        (ii)          If  the sum of (r) Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to the procedures in paragraphs (a) through (c) above, plus (s) the Cash Shortfall Payment, if any, is less than $4,000,000, then the Initial Contribution Consideration shall be reduced by the number of shares (rounded to the nearest whole number) equal to (x) the excess of $4,000,000 over such sum, divided by (y) the FECI Average Trading Price, and such number of shares shall be released from the Indemnity Escrow and delivered to Parent for cancellation as provided in the Escrow Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent the number of shares in the Indemnity Escrow is insufficient (such insufficiency of shares, the “Share Shortfall”), then, within seven (7) Business Days after such final determination of the amount of Closing Working Capital, Mr. Codina shall pay to Parent, in cash, an amount equal to the product of the Share Shortfall multiplied by the FECI Average Trading Price

                                        (iii)        If the sum of (r) Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to the procedures in paragraphs (a) through (c) above, plus (s) the Cash Shortfall Payment, if any, exceeds $4,000,000, then the Initial Contribution Consideration shall be increased by the number of shares (rounded to the nearest whole number) equal to (x) such excess divided by (y) the FECI Average Trading Price, and such number of shares shall be issued and delivered by Parent to the Contributors within seven (7) Business Days after such final determination of the amount of Closing Working Capital.

                    (e)               If, between the date of this Agreement and the date on which any shares of Parent Stock are to be issued and delivered to any of the Contributors or the Escrow Agent hereunder, there is a reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, split-up, stock dividend, combination or exchange of shares with respect to, or rights issued in respect of, FECI Stock or Parent Stock, the number of shares of Parent Stock to be issued and delivered shall be adjusted accordingly to provide to the Contributors the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

          Section 3.06          Conversion. Certificates representing shares of FECI Stock immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time shall, from and after the Initial Effective Time, represent the shares of Parent Stock constituting the FECI Merger Consideration. At the Effective Time, Parent shall exchange by book entry transfer all uncertificated shares of FECI Stock for the shares of Parent Stock constituting the FECI Merger Consideration. No separate certificates shall be issued in exchange for FECI Stock in accordance with Section 11045 of the FBCA.

          Section 3.07          Withholding Rights. Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement such amounts as it determines in good faith following receipt of advice of tax counsel (from a nationally-recognized law firm) are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Entity by or on behalf of Parent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by or on behalf of Parent.

                    (c)               No indemnitor will have any liability (for indemnification or otherwise) for any Damages (i) for punitive, exemplary or special damages of any nature, (ii) for indirect or consequential damages, including damages for lost profit, lost business opportunity or damage to business reputation, or (iii) that, at the time written notice thereof is delivered to any indemnitor, are contingent, speculative or unquantified.

                    (f)               The amount of Damages for which the Parent Indemnified Persons or Codina Indemnified Persons may be entitled to seek indemnification under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds or other payment from a third party received or receivable by any Parent Indemnified Person or Codina Indemnified Person, as applicable, with respect to such Damages and the amount of any Tax deduction, Tax credit or other Tax benefit that any Parent Indemnified Person or Codina Indemnified Person is entitled to with respect to such Damages (taking into account the time at which such benefit is expected to be actually realized).  If a Parent Indemnified Person or Codina Indemnified Person, after having received any indemnification payment pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Damages, subsequently receives any insurance proceeds or other payment or recognizes any deduction, credit or other Tax benefit with respect to such Damages, Parent or the Contributors, as the case may be, will promptly refund and pay to the Parent Indemnified Persons or Codina Indemnified Persons, as the case may be, an amount equal to such insurance proceeds, payment or benefit.

                    (g)               Parent and FECI will, and will cause each of the other Parent Indemnified Persons to, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Damages with respect to which it may be entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to this Agreement.  Parent and FECI will, and will cause each of the other Parent Indemnified Persons to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all insurance proceeds or other payments from third parties, and all Tax refunds or other Tax benefits, that may be available with respect to any Damages with respect to which it may be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement.

          Section 11.06        Procedure For Indemnification.

                    (a)               In the event that any indemnified party shall incur or suffer any Damages in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder by any FECI Indemnified Person, on the one hand, or any Codina Indemnified Person, on the other hand, with respect to a matter not involving a third party claim, the indemnified party shall assert a claim for indemnification by notice to the indemnifying parties stating the nature and basis of such claim, and, if known, the amount, or a good faith estimate of the amount, of the liability arising therefrom. Indemnification pursuant to Section 11.03 shall be  made pursuant to the procedures set forth in that section and not in this Section 11.06.

                    (b)               Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the assertion of a claim by a third party or the commencement of any Proceeding against it, with respect to a matter for which indemnification is or may be owing pursuant to this Article 11, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under such section, give notice to the indemnifying parties and shall thereafter keep the indemnifying parties informed of all other material information it receives with respect thereto; provided, however that the failure of an indemnified party to give the indemnifying parties prompt notice and such other material information as provided herein will not relieve the indemnifying parties of any of their obligations hereunder unless and then only to the extent that the indemnifying parties shall have been actually prejudiced thereby.

                    (c)               If any Proceeding referred to in Section 11.06(b) is brought against an indemnified party and it gives notice to the indemnifying party that it intends to seek indemnification, the indemnified party shall provide to the indemnifying party, as promptly as practicable after giving notice of such Proceeding, information and documentation reasonably requested by the indemnifying party to support and verify the claim asserted, unless the indemnified party has been advised by counsel that there are no reasonable grounds to assert a joint defense privilege with respect to such information and documentation.  The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes to assume the defense, negotiations and/or settlement of such Proceeding with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that if the indemnified party files any motion, answer or other pleadings or takes any other action prior to the indemnified party’s delivery to the indemnifying party of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 11.06(c) and the filing of any such motion, answer or other pleading or the taking of such action prejudices the ability of the indemnifying party to defend, negotiate and/or settle such Proceeding, the indemnifying party shall be relieved of its obligations under this Article 11 but only to the extent the indemnifying party has been prejudiced thereby.  After the indemnifying party takes control of the defense, negotiation and/or settlement of any such Proceeding, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate therein, at its own expense

-57-



and with counsel of its own choosing and the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party under this Article 11 for any fees of such counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall pay for the costs and expenses of such separate counsel if, in the good faith judgment of the indemnified party based upon the advice of counsel, representation of both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party would be inappropriate under the relevant standards of professional conduct.  The parties shall cooperate and render such assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any such Proceeding, which assistance shall include, without limitation, making appropriate personnel reasonably available for any discovery or trial. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if (i) the indemnifying party fails or refuses to undertake the defense of any such Proceeding within a reasonable period of time following receipt of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 11.06(c) or disputes its liability to the indemnified party under this Article 11 with respect to such Proceeding, (ii) the indemnifying party fails to diligently defend and contest such Proceeding with counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnified party irrevocably waives its right to indemnity hereunder with respect to such Proceeding, then the indemnified party shall have the right to take control of the defense, negotiation and/or settlement of such Proceeding at, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the indemnifying party’s expense.  If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (i) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement of such claims  may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (iii) the indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent.

                    (d)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

                    (e)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the indemnifying party nor the indemnified party shall settle or compromise any Proceeding without the consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that any settlement or compromise shall include an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liabilities or obligations relating to the Proceeding and provides only for the payment of monetary damages solely by the indemnifying party without any obligations on the part of the indemnified party.

          Section 11.07        Escrow; Method of Payment. Upon notice to Mr. Codina specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such claim, Parent and/or FECI may give notice of a claim in such amount under the Escrow Agreement and obtain payment of such indemnification claim in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement.  Neither giving a notice of a claim nor the failure to give a notice of a claim under the Escrow Agreement will constitute an election of remedies or limit Parent or FECI in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it.  The amounts held in the Indemnity Escrow under the Escrow Agreement shall serve as the initial source, and, until all amounts in the Indemnity Escrow have been released, the exclusive source of payment for indemnification claims made by Parent and its Affiliates pursuant to this Article 11.  To the extent of 10% of the Initial Valuation Amount, indemnification claims made by Parent Indemnified Parties shall be payable in Parent Stock, whether or not such amounts are then held in escrow.  Once indemnification claims made by Parent Indemnified Parties hereunder exceed 10% of the Initial Valuation Amount, such claims shall be paid in cash.

          Section 11.08          Exclusivity.  Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, effective as of the Closing, each party hereto waives any rights and claims it may have against any other party and any of their Affiliates, whether in law or in equity, relating to the transactions contemplated hereby.  The rights and claims waived by the parties include, without limitation, claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising out of or relating to any Environmental Law, claims for breach of contract, breach of representation or warranty, negligent misrepresentation and all other claims of breach of duty.  After the Closing, the indemnification provisions of this Agreement shall provide the exclusive remedy to the parties for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or other agreement or other claim arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding, the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.08 shall not apply to any rights or claims in respect of actions for injunctive relief, fraud, or intentional material misrepresentation.

          Section 12.05        Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state that would cause the laws of another jurisdiction to apply.

-60-



          Section 12.06        Jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in the Circuit Court of the State of Florida, Miami-Dade County, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such court (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 12.01 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

          Section 12.07        WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

          Section 12.11        Specific Performance.

          Section 12.13        Appointment and Powers of Mr. Codina

                    (a)               The Contributors hereby acknowledge that the Contributors have appointed Mr. Codina as their representative authorized to take or authorize any action required to be taken or authorized by the Contributors for such other purposes as more fully set forth herein and in the Escrow Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.  Mr. Codina hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to fulfill the obligations as the representative hereunder and thereunder. The Contributors acknowledge and agree that Parent and FECI shall be entitled to rely upon such appointment. Upon the death or disability of Mr. Codina, all rights, powers and obligations of Mr. Codina under this Section 12.13 shall be deemed granted and assumed by such successor representative appointed by the Contributors with the prior written approval of Parent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

                    (b)               Each Contributor hereby acknowledges and agrees that such Contributor has entered into this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and has appointed Mr. Codina as agent and representative of such Contributor hereunder and thereunder in consideration of each other Contributor doing the same.

                    (c)               Mr. Codina shall have the power and authority to give and receive notices on behalf of the Contributors, at such times and on such conditions as the Contributors or Mr. Codina are required or permitted to give and receive notices pursuant to this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

                    (d)                Mr. Codina shall have the power and authority to give instructions and directions to Parent and FECI with regard to any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement.

                    (e)               Mr. Codina shall have the power and authority to take any and all actions that Mr. Codina shall determine are necessary or desirable in connection with this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, including, without limitation, making decisions with regard to the disposition of any claims made pursuant to this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement; exercising such discretion (either alone or jointly with Parent and/or FECI) as may be granted to the Contributors pursuant to this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement; making deliveries to the Parent and/or FECI; supervising and conducting any defense of any third party claim; supervising and conducting any dispute resolution process in connection with this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement.

-62-



                    (f)               Mr. Codina shall have the power and authority to enter into such agreements and take such actions on behalf of the Contributors as Mr. Codina may determine to be necessary or desirable for purposes of (i) carrying out or facilitating any of the transactions and actions referred to in, or contemplated by, this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, (ii) exercising his authority hereunder or thereunder, or (iii) enforcing the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement.

                    (g)               Any right, power, authority, action, determination or decision permitted or required to be exercised, taken or made by Mr. Codina hereunder, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement shall be deemed to have been validly exercised, taken or made if approved by Mr. Codina in his sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Mr. Codina shall be entitled (but not required) to consult with the Contributors in advance of exercising any right, power or authority, taking any action or making any determination.

                    (h)               Each Contributor hereby nominates, constitutes and appoints Mr. Codina as his true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to act for such Contributor and in such Contributor’s name, place and stead for the purposes of facilitating and effecting, and executing any documents and taking any other actions that said attorney-in-fact may in his sole discretion determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate in connection with, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement. Each Contributor hereby grants to said attorney-in-fact full power and authority to execute, deliver, acknowledge and certify on such Contributor’s behalf any and all documents which said attorney-in-fact may in his sole discretion determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate, including without limitation any certificate, notice, request, receipt or other document or instrument provided for or contemplated by this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement.  Each Contributor hereby grants to said attorney-in-fact full power and authority to take any and all actions on behalf of such Contributor which said attorney-in-fact may in his sole discretion determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate in connection with the foregoing transactions or the exercise of any of the foregoing powers. Each Contributor hereby ratifies and confirms each act that such attorney-in-fact shall perform in exercise of the power hereby conferred, and it is hereby stipulated that any person dealing with said attorney-in-fact in good faith may accept as conclusive evidence of such fact a written statement by said attorney-in-fact to the effect that the action taken by said attorney-in-fact is within the scope of the authority conferred by this power of attorney. The power of attorney granted by each Contributor hereunder (i) revokes any power of attorney heretofore granted that authorizes any person or persons other than the person named herein to represent such Contributor in the matters set forth herein, and (ii)  is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

          Section 12.14        Schedules and Exhibits.  All Schedules and Exhibits hereto that are referred to herein are hereby made a part hereof and incorporated herein by such reference.  Each Schedule to this Agreement shall be deemed to include and incorporate all disclosures made on the other Schedules to this Agreement, provided that a reasonable relationship between such Schedules is apparent from the face thereof.  Information set forth in the Schedules is included solely for informational purposes, is not an admission of liability with respect to the matters covered by the information, and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement.  The specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Schedules is not intended to imply that such amounts (or higher or lower amounts) are or are not material, and no party hereto shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any such item in the Schedules in any claim, dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in a Schedule is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement.
