The Company did not receive a qualified opinion from its auditors with respect to its most recent fiscal year end.

Each of the Company, its directors and its senior financial officers has consulted with the Company's independent auditors and with the Company's outside counsel with respect to, and (to the extent applicable to the Company) is familiar in all material respects with all of the requirements of, SOX. The Company is in compliance with the provisions of SOX applicable to it as of the date hereof and has implemented such programs and has taken reasonable steps, upon the advice of the Company's independent auditors and outside counsel, respectively, to ensure the Company's future compliance (not later than the relevant statutory and regulatory deadlines therefor) with all provisions of SOX which shall become applicable to the Company after the date hereof. (ee) Except as disclosed on SCHEDULE 6(EE), no duties, liabilities or obligations of the Company, vest, accelerate or become due and owing as a result of the Company's concluding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including, without limitation, loan payments to affiliates, 15 salary continuation payments, employment benefits, or any other Company duties, liabilities or obligations whether owed to shareholders, employees, affiliates or unrelated third parties. 7.

(a) The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale to the Purchaser of the Units and from the exercise of the Warrants solely in furtherance of, and solely to effect and implement, the Proposed Strategies (as herein defined), including any expenditures that may be reasonably incidental to the furtherance of such Proposed Strategies (e.g., payment of employee salaries pursuant to Section 8(e) hereof and any and all costs and expenses of implementing the Proposed Strategies). Specifically, the Company shall use such proceeds to invest in one or more pest control businesses identified by or presented to the Company in one or more transactions if approved by the Company's Board of Directors, consistent with the provisions of Section 8(b) hereof.

(b) The Company shall adopt, diligently pursue and implement the following strategies and objectives (the "PROPOSED STRATEGIES"): (i) The Company shall diversify and expand its business and operations into the pest control services sector by investing in one or more pest control service businesses in one or more transactions that will in the future be approved by the Company's Board of Directors; (ii) The Company shall support and facilitate the potential acquisitions for the Company of pest control businesses in the United States and/or its territories from which the Company may grow organically and through acquisitions; (iii) The Company shall finance the growth of its Pest 19 Control Division by accessing the equity and debt capital markets when conditions in such markets are such that the Board of Directors believe accessing capital through them is in the Company's best interests; and (iv) The Company shall cause the initial platform acquisition(s) to be financed with a combination of equity and debt; and the Company shall use and dedicate $1,000,000 of its cash (from sources other than the proceeds arising from the sale to the Purchaser of the Units and from the exercise of the Warrants) together with the Purchase Price paid to the Company hereunder to fund acquisitions of one or more pest control businesses in one or more transactions that have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors and otherwise in furtherance of the Proposed Strategies. The Company agrees to support and conclude transactions in furtherance of the Proposed Strategies. The Company shall actively and diligently pursue the reasonable implementation of the Proposed Strategies and shall support and facilitate such reasonable implementation. The provisions of Section 8(a) and this Section 8(b) are a material inducement to Purchaser entering into this Agreement and purchasing any Securities. The foregoing obligations of the Company shall be effective only after the First Closing Date and shall be subject, in their entirety, to the fiduciary duties the Board of Directors owes to the shareholders of the Company and shall not be construed to obligate the Board of Directors to approve and pursue any action without an independent determination by the Board of Directors that such action is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders; and, notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, if, at any time the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, based upon the opinion of independent legal counsel (who may be the Company's regularly engaged independent counsel), that it is required by its fiduciary duties to the Company's shareholders under applicable law to refuse or delay to pursue any action that purports to further the Proposed Strategies, the Company may refuse or delay to pursue any action that purports to further the Proposed Strategies, including the investigation, negotiation or consummation of any potential acquisitions or offerings. Nothing stated herein shall preclude the Company and its subsidiaries from continuing the Company's present operations and pursuing the Company's traditional and other businesses as identified and described in the Company SEC Documents. (c) The Company shall pay or reimburse Purchaser all reasonable, necessary and documented fees and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and/or any term sheets and the other agreements and documents to be executed and/or delivered in connection herewith, including, without limitation, investment banking, legal, accounting, attorneys', consultants' and other professional fees; provided that the Company shall have no obligation to pay the Purchaser's professional fees or other expenses incurred by it in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby if the Purchaser fails to exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to conclude the purchase by it of the Initial Units (as a result of which failure the First Closing does not occur) except where such failure is due to the failure of the Company to act reasonably and in good faith in which event the Company shall be so obligated to pay such fees and expenses. After the Closing Date, expenses of the new division will be paid by the new division and/or from the proceeds of the sale of the Common Stock. (d) The Company shall appoint Richard C. Rochon and Mario B. Ferrari, and two additional Purchaser designees to its Board of Directors as of 20 the First Closing Date and, the Company shall provide indemnification for such individuals to the same extent that it shall provide such benefits to the other members of the Board of Directors. (e) The Company shall engage designated management (from three to five executives) as of the First Closing Date to serve as members of the Company's management team with the power and authority to oversee and manage the Pest Control Division of the Company, on mutually agreeable terms to be determined by the parties; provided that, the anticipated compensation payable by the Company to such persons will be in the form of $1,000,000 in aggregate annual salary, plus, following such engagement, options to purchase Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of Five Dollars ($5.00) per share, and participation in the Company's stock option plan subsequent to the First Closing Date, as approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The designated management team will assume positions as Chief Executive Officer, President and Executive Vice President of the Company or such other titles as determined by the Purchaser. (f) It is anticipated that the Company will engage in a management services agreement with an affiliate of the Purchaser, in the Form attached hereto as EXHIBIT G, with a management fee in year one of an amount equal to 1/16 times the aggregate Purchase Price paid by the Purchaser. Following the first year and thereafter, the management fee will be equal to 1% of the gross revenues from operations of the Company, excluding any revenues received by the Company from the: (i) Non-Core Assets of the Company (as hereinafter defined) and; (ii) core assets of the Company, which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean those assets used in the design, manufacture and sale of high frequency single sideband communications equipment and integrated systems (the "Core Assets"). Pursuant to the management services agreement, the Purchaser will provide the Company strategy related, investment banking, investor relations and certain administrative, financing, tax, and legal services. (g) Each of the Company and the Purchaser shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the other at the applicable Closing any and all certificates, documents, instruments and other items required by this Agreement to be delivered by such party at or prior to such Closing duly executed by such party as and to the extent required. (h) The Company shall use its best commercially reasonable efforts to timely satisfy each of the conditions described in Section 4 of this Agreement. The Purchaser shall use its best commercially reasonable efforts to timely satisfy each of the conditions described in Section 5 of this Agreement. (i) During the period from the date of this Agreement to the First Closing Date, the Company shall permit the Purchaser (subject to prior notice and consent by the Company management) and their representatives to have reasonable access to the directors, officers, employees, agents, assets and properties of the Company and each of its subsidiaries and all relevant books, records and documents of or relating to the Company and each of its subsidiaries and each of their respective businesses and assets during normal business hours and will furnish to the Purchaser such information, financial records and other documents relating to the Company and each of its subsidiaries and their respective business and assets as the Purchaser may reasonably request. Without 21 limiting the foregoing, the Company shall permit the Purchaser's officers to meet with the officers of the Company and its subsidiaries responsible for its financial statements, the internal controls of the Company and its subsidiaries and the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company and its subsidiaries to discuss such matters as the Purchaser may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate for the Purchaser to satisfy its obligations under Sections 302 and 906 of SOX and any rules and regulations relating thereto. Access to such information by the Purchaser shall be effected through the granting of access by the Company to the Purchaser and shall be governed by Purchaser's confidentiality obligations set forth in that certain Confidentiality Agreement, dated September__, 2004 by and between the Company and Purchaser. (j) The Company agrees at its expense to file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the Purchaser promptly after such filing. The Company shall at its expense, on or before each Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary to qualify the Securities for sale to the Purchaser at each such Closing under applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Purchaser on or prior to each such Closing Date. Purchaser shall provide the Company reasonably advance notice of all States in which Purchaser shall be distributing the Securities to allow the Company time to prepare such filings. (k) The Company shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of or otherwise pursuant to the Warrants and issuance of the Warrant Shares in connection therewith. The Company shall not reduce the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of or otherwise pursuant to the Warrants without the consent of the Purchaser. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is below the maximum number of Warrant Shares issued and issuable upon exercise of or otherwise pursuant to the Warrants (based on the exercise price of the Warrants in effect from time to time), the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of shareholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company's obligations under this Section, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, and using its best efforts to obtain shareholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares. (l) The Company shall use its best efforts to promptly secure the listing of the Common Shares upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and, as long as the Purchaser owns any of the Common Shares or other Securities, shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all Common Shares. The Company will use its best efforts to obtain, as long as the Purchaser owns any of the Common Shares or other Securities, and maintain, the listing and trading of the Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange, and will comply in all respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the American Stock Exchange to the extent, and on such other exchanges upon which, shares of the Company's Common Stock are then listed. 22 (m) The Company shall call and hold the Special Meeting of its shareholders as promptly as practicable for the purpose of voting upon the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company shall comply with all requirements of applicable law applicable to such meeting. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit from its shareholders proxies in favor of approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall take all other action necessary or advisable to obtain the vote or consent of the shareholders required by applicable law to obtain such approvals; provided that nothing stated herein shall obligate the Company to hire a third party proxy solicitation firm. (n) If, at any time the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, based upon the opinion of independent legal counsel (who may be the Company's regularly engaged independent counsel), that it is so required by its fiduciary duties to the Company's shareholders under applicable law, the Company may, in response to an unsolicited Superior Proposal (as hereinafter defined) which does not violate the non-solicitation provisions of Section 8(p) below, (x) furnish information with respect to the Company to the person making such unsolicited Superior Proposal pursuant to a confidentiality agreement in substantially the same form as the confidentiality agreement executed by the Company and Purchaser, and (y) participate in discussions or negotiations regarding such Superior Proposal. Following its receipt of the Superior Proposal, in the event that the Board of Directors determines in good faith, based upon the opinion of independent legal counsel (who may be the Company's regularly engaged independent counsel), that it is required by its fiduciary duties to the Company's shareholders under applicable law, the Board of Directors may withdraw its approval of the transactions contemplated herein. For purposes of this Agreement, a "SUPERIOR PROPOSAL" means any bona fide proposal, made by a third party to acquire one hundred percent (100%) or more of the shares of the Company's Common Stock, whether by acquisition of stock, merger or otherwise, then outstanding, the consideration for which may consist of cash or securities of such third party, on terms which the Board of Directors of the Company determines in its good faith judgment to be more favorable to the Company's shareholders than the terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder. The Company acknowledges that (i) historically its stock price has been lower than the price at which it is trading as of the date of this Agreement, (ii) the Company would not have the opportunity to enter into the pest control business as contemplated herein without the input and expertise provided by Purchaser and designated management team whose employment by the Company was facilitated by the Purchaser and (iii) as a consequence of the foregoing, in analyzing whether any proposal constitutes a "Superior Proposal" the Company shall (A) take into consideration what the market price of such price would be absent the participation by Purchaser and designated management team in the Company's operations and the Company's public announcement of such participation and (B) make a determination whether it is in the best interests of the Company's shareholders and whether the Company has the capability and desire to enter into another industry other than the pest control industry. In addition, any such alternative proposal must be deemed by the Company's board of directors to benefit the shareholders of the Company. The Company shall not be prohibited from taking and disclosing to its shareholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any disclosure to the Company's shareholders concerning a Superior Proposal if, 23 in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, after consultation with independent legal counsel (who may be the Company's regularly engaged independent counsel), failure so to disclose would be a violation of its fiduciary duties to the Company's shareholders under applicable law. (o) The Company covenants and agrees that, except as contemplated by or disclosed in this Agreement, unless the Purchaser shall have consented in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries shall, between the date of this Agreement and the Second Closing Date, directly or indirectly do or propose or agree to do any of the following without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld: (i) amend or otherwise change its Articles of Incorporation or By-laws or equivalent organizational documents; (ii) declare, set aside, make or pay any dividend or other distribution, payable in cash, stock, property or otherwise, with respect to any of its capital stock; (iii) reclassify, combine, split, subdivide or redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of its capital stock; (iv) take any action other than in the ordinary course of business and in a manner consistent with past practice with respect to accounting policies or procedures; (v) enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any Affiliate of the Company (except as set forth in SCHEDULE 8(O) or as permitted by the Company's Code of Ethical Conduct, SOX, the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, or applicable American Stock Exchange rules and regulations); or (vi) agree, in writing or otherwise, to take any of the foregoing actions or any action that would make any representation or warranty in this Agreement made by the Company untrue or incorrect. (p) Except as set forth on SCHEDULE 8(P), until the Closing Date, the Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its officers, directors, shareholders, agents, employees or affiliates, not to (i) solicit, encourage, consider or accept any offers from any other party to acquire all or any portion of the assets of or any interest in the Company, (ii) participate in any discussions or negotiations with any other party concerning the sale of all or any portion of the assets of or any interest in the Company, (iii) provide any non-public information about the Company to any person related to a potential sale of any assets of or interests in the Company, or (iv) otherwise cooperate in any way with, assist, facilitate or encourage any effort by any other person seeking to acquire all or any portion of the assets of or any interest in the Company, except in the situation where, pursuant to SECTION 8(N), the Board of Directors has determined, in good faith, that its fiduciary duties require it to respond to an unsolicited Superior Proposal. The Company shall promptly advise Purchaser in writing of any such inquiry or proposal which they may receive, including the terms of the proposal and identity of the inquirer or offeror. 24 (q) The Company hereby covenants and agrees with the Purchaser that the Company shall not consummate any transaction or enter into any form of agreement with designated management team or any affiliate thereof without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. (r) It is the intention of the Company to divest the non-core assets of the Company (the "NON-CORE ASSETS") acquired in connection with the purchase of Percipia, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Percipia Networks, Inc. and the purchase of the assets of Telecom FM (collectively, the "DIVESTITURE"). Such assets are currently held in separate wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Company will use its best efforts, to enter into a definitive agreement to divest of such subsidiaries or assets as soon as practicable after the date hereof at a price equal to the price paid by the Company for such assets plus the amount of any intercompany debt incurred and advances in connection with the purchase by the Company of such assets, in exchange for shares of a company, the shares of which are publicly traded ("NEWCO"). Upon consummation of the Divestiture the Board of Directors shall distribute the consideration received to the Company's shareholders in the manner and at the time that the Board of Directors shall determine; it being understood that the Purchaser shall not receive through such distribution more than 33% of the total stock consideration paid to the Company , provided, HOWEVER in the event Purchaser would have been entitled to additional stock consideration but for this provision, Purchaser shall be entitled to some other acceptable consideration so that Purchaser as compared to the other Company shareholders receives consideration of comparable value. (s) Purchaser shall cause the Purchased Shares to be voted to elect the two nominees of Michael Herman to the Company's Board of Directors for the year 2006. 9. SHELF REGISTRATION. The Company shall: (a) Prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the SEC, as soon as practicable, but in any event by the date that is sixty (60) days after the last applicable Closing Date, a registration statement (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") registering the resale from time to time by the Purchaser of all of its Common Shares. The Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 or another appropriate form permitting registration of the Common Shares for resale by the Purchaser from time to time through the automated quotation system of the American Stock Exchange or the facilities of a national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded, or if not then traded on a national securities exchange then on any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed or on the OTC Bulletin Board, or in privately-negotiated transactions. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is practicable but in any event by the date that is the earlier of sixty (60) days after the date the Registration Statement is filed or one hundred twenty (120) days after the last applicable Closing Date. (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective for a period at least equal to the later of (i) the second anniversary of the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act or (ii) the date on which all Common Shares may be resold by all the Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a 25 particular date that can then be immediately sold (such period, the "EFFECTIVENESS PERIOD"); cause the related Prospectus (as herein defined) to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act; and use its best efforts to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act applicable to it with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during the Effectiveness Period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or such Prospectus as so supplemented. (c) As promptly as practicable give notice to the Purchaser (i) when any Prospectus, Prospectus supplement, or the Registration Statement or a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has been declared effective. (d) Use reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Common Shares for sale in any jurisdiction in which they have been qualified for sale, in either case at the earliest possible moment, and provide prompt notice to the Purchaser of the withdrawal of any such order. (e) During the Effectiveness Period, deliver to the Purchaser in connection with any sale by the Purchaser of Common Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses relating to such Common Shares (including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto as the Purchaser may reasonably request. (f) File documents required of the Company for customary Blue Sky clearance in states specified in writing by the Purchaser to the extent required by applicable law; provided that the Company will not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Agreement or (ii) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in suits or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. (g) Bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Section 9 whether or not the Registration Statement is declared effective. (h) Not allow any shareholders other than the Purchaser to include their shares in the Registration Statement; except that it shall allow the registration statement to include certain unregistered Common Stock, including certain shares of Common Stock held by Michael Herman up to an amount equal to the number of Purchased Shares, 190,000 shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the acquisition of Percipia, Inc. and 60,000 shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to certain options issued to directors; provided that in the event the managing underwriter, if any, advises the Company, in writing, that in its reasonable opinion the number of shares proposed to be included in the Registration Statement exceeds the number that reasonably can be included 26 for any reason, then the Company will include in the Registration Statement to the extent of the number which the managing underwriter advises the Company can be included, the following shares in the following order and priority: (1) first, the Common Shares of the Purchaser, the shares of Common Stock held by Michael Herman, the 190,000 shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the acquisition of Percipia, Inc. and the 60,000 shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to certain options issued to directors included on the Registration Statement on a pro-rata basis based upon the proportion of each shareholder's ownership relative to the aggregate number of shares owned by Purchaser and (2) second, other securities of the Company, if permitted. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary, the Company's obligations under this Section 9 shall terminate as to the Purchaser, any assign or any other party granted rights under this Section 9 at such time as all of such party's Securities and Common Shares can be sold under Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold. 10. INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 11. TRANSFER OF SHARES AFTER REGISTRATION; SUSPENSION; OBLIGATIONS OF PURCHASER. (a) Subject to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, the Purchased Securities shall be freely transferable. Subject to its compliance with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, the Purchaser may assign the Purchased Securities prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and such assignment shall not reduce or release the Company from its obligation to register such securities. (b) The Company shall, as promptly as practicable, give notice to the Purchaser (i) of any request, following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Securities Act, by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information, (ii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Common Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (iv) of the occurrence of a Material Event (as defined in Section 11(c)) and (v) of the determination by the Company that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement will be filed with the SEC, which notice may, as required pursuant to paragraph 11(c), state that it constitutes a Deferral Notice, in which event the provisions of Section 11(c) shall apply. (c) The Company shall, upon (A) the issuance by the SEC of a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of proceedings with respect to the Registration Statement under Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the Securities Act, (B) the occurrence of any event or the existence of any fact (a "MATERIAL EVENT") as a result of which the Registration Statement shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to 27 make the statements therein not misleading, or the related Prospectus shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (C) the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development constituting a Material Event that, in the reasonable discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, makes it appropriate to suspend the availability of the Registration Statement and the related Prospectus, (i) in the case of clause (B) above, subject to the next sentence, as promptly as practicable prepare and file, if necessary pursuant to applicable law, a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document that would be incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement and Prospectus so that such Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and such Prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, as thereafter delivered to the Purchaser of the Common Shares being sold thereunder, and, in the case of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, subject to the next sentence, use its reasonable best efforts to cause it to be declared effective as promptly as is practicable, and (ii) give notice to the Purchaser that the availability of the Registration Statement is suspended (a "DEFERRAL NOTICE") and, upon receipt of any Deferral Notice, the Purchaser agree not to sell any Common Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement until the Purchaser's receipt of copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus provided for in clause (i) above, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the Prospectus may be used, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in such Prospectus. The Company will use all reasonable best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed (x) in the case of clause (A) and (B) above, as promptly as is practicable, and (y) in the case of clause (C) above, as soon as, in the reasonable judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, public disclosure of such Material Event would not be materially prejudicial to the interests of the Company or, if necessary to avoid unreasonable burden or expense to the Company, as soon as practicable thereafter. The Company shall be entitled to exercise its right under this Section 11(c) to suspend the availability of the Registration Statement or any Prospectus no more than two (2) times in any twelve-month period, and any such period during which the availability of the Registration Statement and any Prospectus is suspended (the "DEFERRAL PERIOD") shall not exceed forty-five (45) days. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable best efforts to limit the duration and number of any Deferral Periods. Purchaser hereby expressly acknowledges its obligation to keep confidential all nonpublic information about the Company, including all nonpublic information set forth in such notice. The Effectiveness Period automatically shall be extended for a period of time equal in duration to the duration of all Deferral Periods in the aggregate. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to Section 9 that the Purchaser shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, Securities held by it, any assign, Securities held by any assign and the intended method of disposition of the Securities held by it or any assign as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. 28 (d) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Purchaser shall notify the Company of the occurrence of any event, as a result of which the prospectus included in the registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 12. INDEMNITY AND CONTRIBUTION. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and the Purchaser's respective officers, directors, general partners and managers, as the case may be (collectively, "PURCHASER INDEMNITEES") from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) (collectively, the "LOSSES") in each case to the extent, but only to the extent (i) caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented by any amendment or prospectus supplement, including post-effective amendments, and all material incorporated by reference in such prospectus (the "PROSPECTUS") or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which it was made not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to the Purchaser or its assigns furnished to the Company in writing by the Purchaser or assign expressly for use therein or (ii) caused by, arising from or related to the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company in or pursuant to this Agreement or any document delivered by the Company in connection herewith. The aggregate Losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees in respect of which they are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 12(a) are hereinafter referred to as "PURCHASER INDEMNIFIABLE LOSSES." Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to this Section 12(a): (1) unless the aggregate amount of Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses exceeds $100,000 and then only for the amount of Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses in excess of $100,000; or (2) for any amounts by which the aggregate amount of Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses exceeds $15,000,000; PROVIDED THAT, notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall not apply to the Company's obligations to pay the Purchaser's expenses pursuant to Section 8(c) hereof, and the Company shall be liable for the full amount of the Purchaser's reimbursable expenses under Section 8(c) hereof pursuant to the terms of such section. (b) The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and its officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, "COMPANY INDEMNITEES"), from and against any and all Losses, insofar as such Losses are (i) caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required 29 to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Purchaser furnished in writing by the Purchaser to the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or (ii) caused by, arising from or related to the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Purchaser in or pursuant to this Agreement or any document delivered by the Purchaser in connection herewith. The aggregate Losses incurred by the Company Indemnitees in respect of which they are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 12(b) are hereinafter referred to as "COMPANY INDEMNIFIABLE LOSSES." Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchaser shall have no obligation to indemnify the Company Indemnitees pursuant to this Section 12(b): (1) unless the aggregate amount of Company Indemnifiable Losses exceeds $100,000 and then only for the amount of Company Indemnifiable Losses in excess of $100,000; or (2) for any amounts by which the aggregate amount of Company Indemnifiable Losses exceeds $15,000,000. (c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person or entity in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 12(a) or 12(b), such person or entity (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall promptly notify the person or entity against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed reasonably promptly after incurred. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding affected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability, criminal liability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 30 (d) To the extent that the indemnification provided for under Section 12(a)(i) or 12(b)(i) is unavailable to an indemnified party or is insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions or other matters that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the sale pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) of the Purchased Securities to which such losses, claims, damages or liabilities relate. The relative benefits received by the Purchaser shall be deemed to be equal to the value of Purchased Securities that are registered under the Securities Act. The relative fault of the Purchaser on the one hand and the Company on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact, or the inaccurate representation or warranty relates to information supplied by the Purchaser or by the Company and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 12(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding this Section 12(d), the Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net amount received by the Purchaser from the sale of the Purchased Securities to which such loss relates exceeds the amount of any damages that such indemnifying party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. (e) The remedies provided for in this Section 12 are meant to be exclusive and shall limit the rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or equity. (f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 12 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution of this Agreement through the second anniversary of the last applicable Closing and shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Purchaser or any 31 assign, or the Purchaser's or any assign's officers or directors, or any person controlling the Purchaser or any assign, or the Company, or the Company's officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (ii) the sale of any Purchased Securities by the Purchaser. 13. RELIANCE ON REPRESENTATIONS. Notwithstanding any knowledge of facts determined or determinable by the Purchaser or the Company by investigation, each party shall have the right to fully rely on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the other party hereto contained in this Agreement or in any other documents or papers delivered in connection herewith. Each representation, warranty, covenant and agreement of the parties set forth in this Agreement is independent of each other representation, warranty, covenant and agreement. Each representation and warranty made by any party in this Agreement shall survive each Closing through the second anniversary thereof. 14. TERMINATION OF CONDITIONS AND OBLIGATIONS. The conditions precedent imposed by this Agreement upon the transferability of the Common Shares shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Shares (and any legend on the Common Shares will be removed by the Company) at such time as such Common Shares have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the Registration Statement covering such Common Shares, or at such time as an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company shall have been rendered to the effect that (i) such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act or (ii) such Common Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144. 15. INFORMATION AVAILABLE. So long as the Registration Statement is effective covering the resale of securities owned by the Purchaser, except to the extent such may be obtained on EDGAR or otherwise obtained off the internet, the Company will furnish to the Purchaser: (a) as soon as practicable after it is available (but in the case of the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders, within 120 days of each fiscal year of the Company), one copy of: (i) its Annual Report to Shareholders (which Annual Report shall contain financial statements audited in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by a national firm of certified public accountants); (ii) if not included in substance in the Annual Report to Shareholders, its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB; (iii) its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB; (iv) any Current Reports on Form 8-K; and (v) a full copy of the particular Registration Statement covering the securities owned by Purchaser; 32 (b) upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, an adequate number of copies of the Prospectus to supply to any other party requiring such Prospectus; and (c) within one (1) day after release, copies of all press releases issued by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and contemporaneously with the making available or giving to the shareholders of the Company, copies of any notices or other information the Company makes available or gives to such shareholders. 16. NO BROKERS. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby represents that, on the basis of any actions and agreements by it, there are no brokers or finders entitled to compensation in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities to the Purchaser. The parties hereto expressly acknowledge the Company is paying certain fees to ________________for certain financial advisory services being provided by __________________ in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder. The parties hereto expressly agree and acknowledge ________________'s role is not that of a broker or finder. 17. RULE 144. (a) The Company covenants that, if at any time before the end of the Effectiveness Period the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, it will cooperate with the Purchaser and take such further reasonable action as the Purchaser may request in writing (including, without limitation, making such reasonable representations as the Purchaser may request), all to the extent reasonably required from time to time to enable the Purchaser to sell Securities or Common Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 and Rule 144A under the Securities Act and customarily taken in connection with sales pursuant to such exemptions. Upon the reasonable written request of the Purchaser, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a written statement as to whether it has complied with such reporting requirements, unless such a statement has been included in the Company's most recent report filed pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act; provided that the Company may reasonably decline to deliver such written statement if Purchaser has made more than six (6) such written requests in any year and such written requests have resulted in a significant disruption of the Company's business. (b) The Company shall file the reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act and shall comply with all other requirements set forth in the instructions to Form S-3 in order to allow the Company to be eligible to file registration statements on Form S-3. 18. NOTICES. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, by telecopier, by courier guaranteeing overnight delivery or by first-class mail and shall be deemed given (i) when made, if made by hand delivery, (ii) upon confirmation, if made by telecopier, (iii) one (1) business day after being deposited with such courier, if made by overnight courier or (iv) on the third day after deposit in the mail, if made by first-class mail, to the parties as follows: 33 (a) if to the Purchaser, to: Coconut Palm Capital Investors II, Ltd. 555 South Federal Highway Second Floor Boca Raton, Florida 33432 With a copy to: Hunton & Williams 1111 Brickell Avenue, Suite 2500 Miami, Florida 33131 Attn: Carlos Loumiet (b) if to the Company, to: Sunair Electronics, Inc. 3005 S.W. 3rd Avenue Ft.
