(d) The Seller covenants and agrees that the Company Financial Statements (i) will be prepared based on the books and records of the Company in accordance with GAAP and present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and statements of cash flow of the Company as of the dates indicated or the periods indicated in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied with all prior periods; (ii) will contain and reflect all necessary adjustments, accruals, provisions and allowances for a fair presentation of the financial condition of the Company and the results of operations of the Company for the periods covered by such financial statement; and (iii) will comply as to form and substance in all respects with the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations thereunder. (e) The Seller shall cause Burr, Pilger & Mayer, LLP to timely deliver its consent to include its audit report on the Company Financial Statements, in each periodic report under the Exchange Act of 1934 or Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933 which Purchaser may file hereafter for which such consent may be required. (f) The Seller shall pay the fees and costs of Burr, Pilger & Mayer, LLP in preparing the Company Financial Statements and the Seller shall bear its own costs in preparing the Company Financial Statements.

SECTION 6.8. FURTHER ASSURANCES. (i) Upon the request of the Purchaser at any time after the Closing Date, the Seller shall forthwith execute and deliver such further instruments of assignment, transfer, conveyance, endorsement, direction or authorization and other documents as the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to perfect title of the Purchaser and its successors and assigns to the Stock or otherwise to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

All of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in Article IV of this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement pertaining thereto shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until the second anniversary of the Closing Date. SECTION 10.2. INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS FOR BENEFIT OF PURCHASER.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, the Purchaser and any of their respective Affiliates from and against any and all Damages resulting from or arising out of any of the following (which indemnification, defense and hold harmless shall not be subject to any of the limitations set forth in Section 10.2(a)): (i) The pending threatened claim of a former employee identified in Schedule 3.21, any claim arising from any employment agreement heretofore entered into by the Company, and any claim of any creditor or beneficiary of the Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company), whether arising prior to, on or after the Closing Date; (ii) Pre Closing Taxes.

SECTION 10.3. MATTERS INVOLVING THIRD PARTIES. (a) If any third party notifies the Purchaser (the "Indemnified Party") with respect to any matter which may give rise to a claim (other than a Tax Claim) for indemnification against the Seller (the "Indemnifying Party") under Section 10.2, then the Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to notify the Indemnifying Party thereof promptly and in any event within ten days after receiving any written notice from a third party; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any 46 obligation hereunder unless, and then solely to the extent that, the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced thereby. (b) Once the Indemnified Party has given notice of the matter to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party may, subject to the Indemnifying Party's rights to assume the defense of such matter pursuant to paragraph (c) below, defend against the matter in any manner it deems appropriate. (c) The Indemnifying Party may at any point in time choose to assume the defense of all of such matter, in which event: (i) the Indemnifying Party shall defend the Indemnified Party against the matter with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, (ii) the Indemnified Party may retain separate counsel at its sole cost and expense (except that the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of one separate co-counsel for all Indemnified Parties to the extent the Indemnified Party is advised, in writing by its counsel, that either (x) the counsel the Indemnifying Party has selected has a conflict of interest, or (y) there are legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party), and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for the reasonable costs of defense or investigation for the period prior to the assumption of the defense. (d) Assumption of the defense of any matter by the Indemnifying Party shall without further action constitute an irrevocable waiver by the Indemnifying Party of its right to claim at a later date that such third party action for which the defense was assumed is not a proper matter for indemnification pursuant to this Article X. (e) The Indemnified Party shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to any matter which may give rise to a claim for indemnification without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party has failed to provide indemnification required to be provided pursuant to this Article X for fifteen days after a request therefor, then the Indemnified Party may take any such action without the consent of the Indemnifying Party. (f) The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of a judgment with respect to any matter which may give rise to a claim for indemnification or enter into any settlement which does not include a provision whereby the plaintiff or claimant in the matter releases the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect thereto, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 47 SECTION 10.4. CERTAIN ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO INDEMNIFICATION. (a) Notwithstanding Section 12.11, after the Closing Date, the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article X shall constitute the sole and exclusive recourse and remedy available to the Purchaser with respect to the breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement except for actual fraud. (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of this Article X, in determining the existence of a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and the amount of Damages, no effect shall be given to any qualification as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect. (c) All payments by an Indemnifying Party under Article X shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all foreign, federal, state and local income tax purposes. (d) Purchaser's right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations herein shall not be affected by any investigation (including any environmental investigation or assessment) conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. SECTION 10.5. PROCEDURES RELATING TO TAX CLAIMS. If a claim is made by any Tax authority which, if successful, is likely to result in an indemnity payment to the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates pursuant to this Article X, the Purchaser shall notify the Seller of such claim (a "Tax Claim"), stating the nature and basis of such claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known. Failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Seller from any liability which it may have on account of this indemnification or otherwise, except to the extent that the Seller is materially prejudiced thereby. The Seller will have the right, at its option, upon timely notice to the Purchaser, to assume control of any defense of any Tax Claim (other than a Tax Claim relating solely to Taxes of the Company for a Straddle Period) with its own counsel, provided, however, such counsel is reasonable satisfactory to the Purchaser. The Seller's right to control a Tax Claim will be limited to amounts in dispute which would be paid by the Seller or for which the Seller would be liable pursuant to this Article X. Costs of such Tax Claims are to be borne by the Seller unless the Tax Claim relates to taxable periods ending after the Closing Date, in which event such costs will be fairly apportioned. The Purchaser and the Company shall cooperate with the Seller in contesting any Tax Claim, which cooperation shall include the retention and, upon the Seller's request, the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Tax Claim and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information or explanation of any material provided hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall neither consent nor agree (nor cause the Company to consent or agree) to the settlement of any Tax Claim with respect to any liability for Taxes that may affect the liability for any state or 48 federal income tax of the Company or any Affiliated Group of which the Company is a member for any taxable period ending subsequent to the Closing Date without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, and neither the Seller, nor any Seller Entity, shall file an amended Tax Return that may affect the liability for Taxes of the Company without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. The Purchaser and the Seller shall jointly control all proceedings taken in connection with any claims for Taxes relating solely to a Straddle Period of the Company. SECTION 10.6. PURCHASER'S INDEMNIFICATION OF SELLER. In the event that the Purchaser breaches any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by the Purchaser pursuant hereto and provided that, as to any claim for breach of representations or warranties, the Seller makes a written claim for indemnification against the Purchaser within the applicable survival period, if applicable, then the Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Seller and its Affiliates from and against all Damages the Seller and its Affiliates suffer resulting from or arising out of such event; provided, however, that the Seller shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Purchaser from and against any Damages resulting from the breach of any representation or warranty of the Purchaser (as opposed to any covenant of the Purchaser) contained in Article IV of this Agreement until the Seller has suffered aggregate Damages, by reason of all such breaches in excess of $25,000; provided further that (i) and Purchaser shall have no obligation to indemnify the Seller for the initial $25,000 in Damages, and (ii) no claim may be made by Seller under this Section unless such claim exceeds $10,000 in value. In any event, the maximum amount that Purchaser shall be required to pay as to all claims made under this Section shall be the maximum indemnification amount set forth in Section 10.2(a) for Seller's indemnification of Purchaser. For the purposes of this Section 10.5, the representations and warranties of Purchaser hereunder shall survive for a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date. ARTICLE XI.
