shown on the balance sheet of the Business at 31 December 1998 attached hereto
as Exhibit A (the "31 December Balance Sheet"), (ii) all obligations and

2.3 Purchase Price and Method of Payment. Subject to Section 2.4 herein, the
------------------------------------- -----------
total purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be One Million Six Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,650,000)

payable at Closing by Buyer to Seller in immediately available funds by
certified or official bank check or by wire transfer to an account or accounts
designated by Seller to Buyer in writing prior to Closing (the "Closing
Payment"), plus (ii) the execution and delivery by Buyer to Seller at the
Closing of an unsecured promissory note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B
---------
(the "Note") in the principal amount of One Million One Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($1,150,000) as described herein. The outstanding principal amount plus

bear simple interest at a rate of six and one half percent (6.5%) per year
calculated on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve equal months and shall be

($287,500) plus interest shall be paid twelve (12) months after Closing.
2.4 Adjustments to Purchase Price. The Purchase Price is based in part on the 31
-----------------------------
December Balance Sheet (the "Assessed Book Value"). Within thirty (30) days of
the Closing Date, Seller will prepare and submit to Buyer a balance sheet as of
the Closing Date, which shall include in Current Liabilities, among other
things, One Hundred Eight Thousand Seventy-Four Dollars and Ninety-Eight Cents
($108,074.98) for deferred compensation obligations owing through March 31, 1999
to certain employees of Seller and shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and
consistent with Seller's past practices and the 31 December Balance Sheet (the
"Closing Book Value"). Buyer shall have a period of thirty (30) calendar days
after delivery of the Closing Book Value to present in writing to Seller any
objections Buyer may have with respect to any of the matters set forth therein.
If no objections are raised within such 30-day period, Seller's determination of
the Closing Book Value shall be deemed accepted and approved by Seller and by
Buyer. If Buyer shall raise any objection within such 30-day period, Buyer and
Seller shall attempt to resolve the matter or matters in dispute. If all such
objections are resolved within forty (40) calendar days after delivery of the
Closing Book Value, Seller shall send to Buyer a confirmation of the original
Closing Book Value or, if necessary, a revised Closing Book Value prepared in
accordance with such resolution, and Buyer shall send a letter to Seller
confirming that such confirmed or revised Closing Book Value is in accordance
with such resolution, whereupon the confirmed or revised Closing Book Value
shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto. For purposes of this Section
2.4, Buyer shall provide Seller and its agents and representatives from and
after the Closing Date with reasonable access, during normal business hours, to
all of the business records and Buyer's personnel necessary for the preparation
of the Closing Book Value and any revisions thereto.
If all such disputes cannot be so resolved in writing by Buyer and
Seller within forty (40) calendar days after the delivery of the Closing Book
Value, then the specific matter or matters in dispute shall be submitted to an
independent nationally recognized accounting firm mutually selected by the
Parties (the "Accountants"), which shall make a final and binding determination
as to such matter or matters. The fees and expenses of the Accountants shall be
borne one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller.
During the pendency of any such dispute, Seller or Buyer, as the case
may be, shall promptly remit to the other party any portion of the Purchase
Price adjustment which is not in dispute, and the dispute resolution procedures
set forth herein shall continue to operate with respect to the remaining
disputed item or items.
In the event the Closing Book Value reflects different values for
Property and Equipment, Current Assets, Current Liabilities and/or Customer
Advances than those values reflected in the Assessed Book Value, the Parties
shall adjust the Purchase Price as provided herein to reflect such change(s) by
adjusting the principal amount of the Note (beginning with the first
installment) to reflect the change to the value of the Business. If so required,
Buyer shall promptly execute and deliver to Seller an adjusted Note in exchange
for the original Note which shall be marked "cancelled" and returned to Buyer.
In the event that the Closing Book Value exceeds the Assessed Book Value (an
"Overage") and the Overage exceeds the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000), the Note shall be increased by the exact amount that the Overage
exceeds the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). In the event that
the Closing Book Value is less than the Assessed Book Value (an "Underage"), the
Note shall be decreased by an amount equal to the Underage.
2.5 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Parties agree to allocate the Purchase
------------------------------
Price (and all other capitalizable costs) among the Assets as mutually agreed to
by the Parties in accordance with the requirements of Section 1060 of the Code
and the Treasury regulations thereunder. The Parties agree to file Form 8594
with their federal income tax returns for the taxable year that includes the
Closing, and to file all federal, state, local and foreign Tax returns, each in
accordance with the allocation of the Purchase Price among the Assets as set
forth herein. The Parties shall report the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement for federal income tax and all other purposes in a manner consistent
with such allocation.
2.6 Adjustments and Proration.
-------------------------
(a) To the extent the specific amounts for the following matters
and items are included in the Assumed Liabilities and are
properly reflected on the Closing Book Value as Assumed
Liabilities they shall be Liabilities of Buyer. Otherwise, the

related to the Business, shall be apportioned between the
Parties pro-rata or, where applicable, credited in total to a
particular party, as of 11:59 p.m. of the day immediately

based on the benefit received or to be received by
Seller and Buyer, respectively.

heat, steam, electricity, gas, lighting and any other
service to the extent not prepaid shall be reflected

any other applicable prorations and allocations as soon as
practicable after the Closing. The prorations, allocations,

expenses in connection therewith.

substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the "Non-Competition

of a position with Buyer or with any of Seller's employees entering into
consulting arrangements with Buyer; provided such position or consulting
arrangements with Buyer in each case are only effective from and after the
Closing Date. With respect to any of the employees of Seller at the time of the
Closing that are hired by Buyer, the period of employment with Seller shall be
considered as employment with Buyer for purposes of Buyer's benefits
determinations. Notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, nothing
herein shall imply that Buyer and any of Buyer's current or future employees
have anything more than a "employment at will" relationship unless otherwise set
forth in a definitive agreement between such parties.

owned by, or under the control of, Seller. Each such lease and other agreement
is in full force and effect and constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of, and is legally enforceable against, Seller. Seller has in all
material respects performed all obligations under the leases required to be
performed by Seller to date. Seller is not in default, and to the Best of

Belief is any party which Seller has contracted with, in
default under any of the Seller's Contracts, nor do any facts
or circumstances exist which upon the giving of notice or the
passage of time or both would constitute a default by Seller,

with which Seller has contracted, in each case which default
would have an adverse effect on the Business.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notwithstanding any investigation at any time conducted by any of the Parties
hereto, each Party shall be entitled to rely on the representations and
warranties of the other Party set forth herein or in any schedule, exhibit, or
other document executed and delivered pursuant hereto. The representations and
warranties of each Party contained herein and in any schedule, exhibit or other
document executed and delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing for
one year, except for the representations and warranties of Seller contained in
Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.6, 5.7, 5.8, 5.10, 5.12, 5.13, 5.15 and 5.17 hereof,
------------------------------------------------------------------------
which shall not survive the Closing, and the representations and warranties of
Buyer contained in Sections 6.1 and 6.4 hereof, which shall not survive the
---------------------
Closing.
7.6 Indemnification.
---------------
(a) Seller covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
Buyer, and its directors, officers and employees from and
against all losses, damages, costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of
or relating to any Claims (i) incurred or sustained by Buyer
on account of any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty
except for the representations and warranties contained in
Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.6, 5.7, 5.8, 5.10, 5.12, 5.13, 5.15
--------------------------------------------------------------
and 5.17 hereof, which shall not survive the Closing, or (ii)
--------
incurred or sustained by Buyer on account of any breach of any
covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement or
the other Seller Related Documents. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing and except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, Seller shall be liable for all Liabilities
arising out of or based upon the operation of the Business
prior to the Closing Date.
(b) Buyer covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
Seller, and its directors, officers and employees from and
against all losses, damages, costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of
or relating to any Claims incurred or sustained by Seller on
account of any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty,
covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Agreement or
the other Buyer Related Documents. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall be liable for all
Liabilities arising out of or based upon the operation of the
Business from and after the Closing Date.
(c) If any Claim shall be brought or asserted by one Party (the
"Indemnified Party") against the other Party (the
"Indemnifying Party") hereunder in which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to this Section 7.6, the Indemnified Party
-----------
shall give prompt written notice of such action, suit,
investigation or proceeding to the Indemnifying Party, who
shall assume the defense thereof (including the employment of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party) and
the payment of all expenses related thereto; provided,
however, that any delay or failure to so notify the
Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that the
Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by reason of such
delay or failure. The Indemnified Party shall have the right
to employ separate counsel in any such action, suit,
investigation or proceeding and to participate in the defense
thereof, but the fees and disbursements of such separate
counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party unless both
the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as
parties to the Claim and the Indemnifying Party shall in good
faith determine that representation by the same counsel is
inappropriate (in which latter case the fees and disbursements
of such separate counsel shall be at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party). In the event that the Indemnifying Party,
within ten (10) days after notice of any such action, suit,
investigation or proceeding fails to assume the defense
thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such
action, suit, investigation or proceeding for the account of
the Indemnifying Party, and all costs, fees and expenses
thereof shall be deemed Claims for which the Indemnifying
Party shall be responsible. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary stated herein: (i) the Indemnifying Party shall not,
without the Indemnified Party's prior written consent which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or
compromise any action, suit, investigation or proceeding or
consent to the entry of any judgment or order thereunder; and
(ii) no Indemnifying Party shall be required to indemnify an
Indemnified Party for any judgment issued by any judicial,
administrative, arbitral or other body until such judgment
represents a final, unappealable judgment of such body of
competent jurisdiction over the Claim at issue.
(d) The Parties shall have the right to give notice of any and all
Claims under this Agreement in which Indemnity may be sought
pursuant to this Section 7.6 to one another for a period of
------------
one year following the Closing Date. Any Claim for
indemnification hereunder which is not asserted by notice
given as herein provided by the first anniversary of the
Closing Date may not be pursued and is hereby irrevocably
waived after such time. In no event shall Seller's or Parent
Company's aggregate obligation to provide indemnification
hereunder exceed One Million Six Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($1,650,000). Seller shall not be obligated to
indemnify any Indemnified Party with respect to any Claim for
indemnification hereunder unless and until the aggregate
amount of all such Claims for indemnification exceed
Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000), whereupon Seller
shall only be required to provide indemnification hereunder
for the amount by which such aggregate Claims exceed
Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000). Buyer shall have the
right, subject to the prior written consent of Seller in each
instance, to be reimbursed for the amount of any and all
Claims for indemnification hereunder by offsetting such
amounts as expended against the balance payable by Buyer to
Seller pursuant to the Note. In the event that Claims received
by Buyer exceed the remaining balance of the Note, Seller
shall provide Buyer with reasonable assurance of, and security
for, payment of expenditures related to any such Claims. The
indemnification afforded by this Section 7.6 will be the sole
-----------
and exclusive remedy against Seller or Parent Company for any
Liabilities or Claims of Buyer and its directors, officers and
employees in respect of matters arising out of this Agreement.
(e) Parent Company hereby guarantees to Buyer the due and punctual
payment of any additional amounts due and owing to Buyer, from
and after the date that the balance of the Note has been
reduced to zero, as a result of Seller's inability to honor
its obligations set forth in this Section 7.6. Notwithstanding
-----------
anything stated to the contrary herein, the obligations and
liabilities of Parent Company under this guaranty shall be
primary, direct and immediate subject to the failure of Seller
to make any payment or to perform any of its obligations under
this Section 7.6 and the reduction of the balance of the Note
-----------
to zero. This guaranty is a guaranty of payment, not merely of
collection and shall be a continuing, absolute and
unconditional guaranty and shall remain in full force and
effect until all payment obligations under this Section 7.6
-----------
have been paid in full. Other than as expressly stated herein,
Parent Company's obligations hereunder are in all respects
absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired,
modified, released or limited by the occurrence of any
condition, including, without limitation (i) any release,
non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect
security for any obligation of Seller under this Agreement;
(ii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other
similar proceeding affecting Seller or its assets; (iii) any
invalidity or unenforceability of this Agreement relating to
or against, for any reason, any provision of applicable law or
regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by Seller of any
amounts payable by Seller under this Section 7.6; or (iv) any
-----------
other act or omission of any kind by Seller or any other
corporation which might, but for the provisions of this
Section 7.6 constitute a legal or equitable discharge of
------------
the obligations of Parent Company hereunder.
7.7 Access to Records. Seller hereby specifically agrees to provide Buyer from
-----------------
and after the Closing Date with reasonable access during normal business hours
to all of Seller's business records not otherwise conveyed to Buyer pursuant to
this Agreement and Buyer hereby specifically agrees to provide Seller and
Seller's agents and representatives from and after the Closing with reasonable
access during normal business hours to all of Seller's business records conveyed
to Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Furthermore, in the event that
Parent Company plans to: (i) convey or discontinue Seller's operations; or (ii)
dissolve Seller's corporate existence, Seller hereby covenants and agrees to
make appropriate arrangements for Buyer to have reasonable ongoing access during
normal business hours to such business records of Seller for a period of three
years from and after the Closing Date or as required by law, if longer.
7.8 Non-Solicitation. In the event that the transactions contemplated hereby are
----------------
not consummated on or before 16 April 1999 or upon such later date as may be
mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties hereto, Buyer shall not for a
period of one (1) year after 16 April 1999 or such later date as agreed to in
writing, without the prior written consent of either Seller or Parent Company,
directly or indirectly hire or solicit for hire as an employee, independent
contractor, or otherwise contract for the services of any person who is
currently employed (either as an employee or full-time consultant) by Seller.
7.9 Further Assurances. The Parties hereto agree to execute and deliver or cause
------------------
to be executed and delivered at the Closing or at other reasonable times and
places, such additional instruments or documents as the other Party hereto may
reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement.
The Parties hereto further agree to provide assistance to the other to process
and secure any consents, authorizations and approvals of government,
quasi-governmental and private entities or persons that are required to be
obtained in order to consummate the transactions contemplated herein.

---------------
with any applicable bulk sales or bulk transfer law in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby.

its affiliate shall have offered employment to Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxx, the sole
employee of Revive Technologies (UK) Ltd., a company organized under the laws of

conditions which are at least as favorable to Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxx as those that are
contained in his existing employment agreement with Revive UK.
