facilities owned or operated by the Acquired Company or reflected as owned in
the books and records of the Acquired Company, including all of the properties
and assets reflected in the Balance Sheet and the Interim Balance Sheet (except
for assets held under capitalized leases disclosed or not required to be
disclosed in Part 3.6 of the Disclosure Letter and personal property sold since
the date of the Balance Sheet and the Interim Balance Sheet, as the case may be,
in the Ordinary Course of Business), and all of the properties and assets
purchased or otherwise acquired by the Acquired Company since the date of the
Balance Sheet (except for personal property acquired and sold since the date of
the Balance Sheet in the Ordinary Course of Business and consistent with past
practice). All material properties and assets reflected in the Balance Sheet and
the Interim Balance Sheet are free and clear of all Encumbrances and are not, in
the case of real property, subject to any rights of way, building use
restrictions, exceptions, variances, reservations, or limitations of any nature
except, with respect to all such properties and assets, (a) mortgages or
security interests shown on the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet as
securing specified liabilities or obligations, with respect to which no default
(or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a
default) exists, (b) mortgages or security interests incurred in connection with
the purchase of property or assets after the date of the Interim Balance Sheet
(such mortgages and security interests being limited to the property or assets
so acquired), with respect to which no default (or event that, with notice or
lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) exists, (c) liens for current
taxes not yet due, and (d) with respect to real property, (i) minor
imperfections of title, if any, none of which is substantial in amount,
materially detracts from the value or impairs the use of the property subject
thereto, or impairs the operations of the Acquired Company, and (ii) zoning laws
and other land use restrictions that do not impair the present or anticipated
use of the property subject thereto. All buildings, plants, and structures owned

owned by the Acquired Company and do not encroach upon the property of, or
otherwise conflict with the property rights of, any other Person.

         3.7 Condition and Sufficiency of Assets. The buildings, plants,
structures, and equipment of the Acquired Company, if any, are structurally
sound, are in good operating condition and repair, and are adequate for the uses
to which they are being put, and none of such buildings, plants, structures, or
equipment is in need of maintenance or repairs except for ordinary, routine
maintenance and repairs that are not material in nature or cost. The building,
plants, structures, and equipment of the Acquired Company are sufficient for the
continued conduct of the Acquired Company's business after the Closing in
substantially the same manner as conducted prior to the Closing.

         3.8 Accounts Receivable. All accounts receivable of the Acquired
Company that are reflected on the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet or
on the accounting records of the Acquired Company as of the Closing Date
(collectively, the "Accounts Receivable") represent or will represent valid
obligations arising from sales actually made or services actually performed in
the Ordinary Course of Business. Unless paid prior to the Closing Date, the
Accounts Receivable are or will be as of the Closing Date current and
collectible net of the respective reserves shown on the Balance Sheet or the

                                       11

<PAGE>

Interim Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Acquired Company as of
the Closing Date (which reserves are adequate and calculated consistent with
past practice and, in the case of the reserve as of the Closing Date, will not
represent a greater percentage of the Accounts Receivable as of the Closing Date
than the reserve reflected in the Interim Balance Sheet represented of the
Accounts Receivable reflected therein and will not represent a material adverse
change in the composition of such Accounts Receivable in terms of aging).
Subject to such reserves, each of the Accounts Receivable either has been or
will be collected in full, without any set-off, within ninety days after the day
on which it first becomes due and payable. There is no contest, claim, or right
of set-off, other than returns in the Ordinary Course of Business, under any
Contract with any obligor of an Accounts Receivable relating to the amount or
validity of such Accounts Receivable. Part 3.8 of the Disclosure Letter contains
a complete and accurate list of all Accounts Receivable as of the date of the
Interim Balance Sheet, which list sets forth the aging of such Accounts
Receivable.

         3.9 Inventory. All inventory of the Acquired Company, whether or not
reflected in the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet, consists of a
quality and quantity usable and salable in the Ordinary Course of Business,
except for obsolete items and items of below-standard quality, all of which have
been written off or written down to net realizable value in the Balance Sheet or
the Interim Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Acquired Company
as of the Closing Date, as the case may be. All inventories not written off have
been priced at the lower of cost or market value basis. The quantities of each
item of inventory (whether raw materials, work-in-process, or finished goods)
are not excessive, but are reasonable in the present circumstances of the
Acquired Company.

         3.10 No Undisclosed Liabilities. Except as set forth in Part 3.10 of
the Disclosure Letter, the Acquired Company has no liabilities or obligations of
any nature (whether known or unknown and whether absolute, accrued, contingent,
or otherwise) except for liabilities or obligations reflected or reserved
against in the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet.

         3.11     Taxes.

                  (a) The Acquired Company has filed or caused to be filed all

         any of it, either separately or as a member of a group of corporations,
         pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements. Sellers have delivered to
         Buyer copies of, and Part 3.11 of the Disclosure Letter contains a
         complete and accurate list of, all such Tax Returns. The Acquired
         Company has paid, or made provision for the payment of, all Taxes that
         have or may have become due pursuant to those Tax Returns or otherwise,
         or pursuant to any assessment received by the Acquired Company, except
         such Taxes, if any, as are listed in Part 3.11 of the Disclosure Letter
         and are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves
         have been provided in the Balance Sheet and the Interim Balance Sheet.

                  (b) The Tax Returns of the Acquired Company subject to such
         Taxes have been audited by all the relevant authorities or are closed
         by the applicable statute of limitations for all taxable years through
         the date of Closing. Part 3.11 of the Disclosure Letter contains a
         complete and accurate list of all audits of all such Tax Returns,
         including a reasonably detailed description of the nature and outcome
         of each audit. All deficiencies proposed as a result of such audits
         have been paid, reserved against, settled, or, as described in Part
         3.11 of the Disclosure Letter, are being contested in good faith by
         appropriate proceedings. Part 3.11 of the Disclosure Letter describes
         all adjustments for all taxable years since 2004. Except as described
         in Part 3.11 of the Disclosure Letter, no Seller or Acquired Company
         has given or been requested to give waivers or extensions (or is or
         would be subject to a waiver or extension given by any other Person) of
         any statute of limitations relating to the payment of Taxes of the
         Acquired Company or for which the Acquired Company may be liable.

                  (c) The charges, accruals, and reserves with respect to Taxes
         on the respective books of the Acquired Company are adequate and are at
         least equal to the Acquired Company's liability for Taxes. There exists
         no proposed tax assessment against the Acquired Company except as
         disclosed in the Balance Sheet or in Part 3.11 of the Disclosure
         Letter. All Taxes that the Acquired Company is or was required by Legal
         Requirements to withhold or collect have been duly withheld or
         collected and, to the extent required, have been paid to the proper
         Governmental Body or other Person.

                  (d) All Tax Returns filed by (or that include on a
         consolidated basis) the Acquired Company are true, correct, and
         complete. There is no tax sharing agreement that will require any
         payment by the Acquired Company after the date of this Agreement.

         3.12 No Material Adverse Change. Since the date of the Balance Sheet,
there has not been any adverse change in the business, operations, properties,
prospects, assets, or condition of the Acquired Company, and no event has
occurred or circumstance exists that may result in such a material adverse
change.

         and accurate list of all Company employee benefit plans and
         obligations.

                  (b) The consummation of the Contemplated Transactions will not
         result in the payment, vesting, or acceleration of any benefit.

9.       TERMINATION.

         9.1      Termination Events.  This Agreement may, by notice given prior
to or at the Closing, be terminated:

                  (a) by either Buyer or Sellers if a material Breach of any
         provision of this Agreement has been committed by the other party and
         such Breach has not been waived;

                  (b) (i) by Buyer if any of the conditions in Section 7 has not
         been satisfied as of the Closing Date or if satisfaction of such a
         condition is or becomes impossible (other than through the failure of
         Buyer to comply with its obligations under this Agreement) and Buyer
         has not waived such condition on or before the Closing Date; or (ii) by
         Sellers, if any of the conditions in Section 8 has not been satisfied
         of the Closing Date or if satisfaction of such a condition is or
         becomes impossible (other than through the failure of Sellers to comply
         with their obligations under this Agreement) and Sellers have not
         waived such condition on or before the Closing Date;

                  (c) by mutual consent of Buyer and Sellers; or

                  (d) by either Buyer or Sellers if the Closing has not occurred
         (other than through the failure of any party seeking to terminate this
         Agreement to comply fully with its obligations under this Agreement) on
         or before December 31, 2005, or such later date as the parties may
         agree upon.

         9.2 Effect of Termination. Each party's right of termination under
Section 9.1 is in addition to any other rights it may have under this Agreement
or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination will not be an election
of remedies. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1, all
further obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate, except
that the obligations in Sections 11.1 and 11.3 will survive; provided, however,
that if this Agreement is terminated by a party because of the Breach of the
Agreement by the other party or because one or more of the conditions to the
terminating party's obligations under this Agreement is not satisfied as a
result of the other party's failure to comply with its obligations under this
Agreement, the terminating party's right to pursue all legal remedies will
survive such termination unimpaired.

10.      INDEMNIFICATION; REMEDIES.

         10.1 Survival; Right to Indemnification not Affected by Knowledge. All
representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations in this Agreement, the
Disclosure Letter, the supplements to the Disclosure Letter, the certificate
delivered pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(v), and any other certificate or document
delivered pursuant to this Agreement will survive the Closing. The right to
indemnification, payment of Damages or other remedy based on such
representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations will not be affected by
any investigation 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. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of
any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any
covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of
Damages, or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants,
and obligations.

         10.2 Indemnification and Payment of Damages by Sellers. Sellers,
jointly and severally, will indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, the Acquired
Company, and their respective Representatives, stockholders, controlling

pay to the Indemnified Persons the amount of, any loss, liability, claim, damage
(including incidental and consequential damages), expense (including costs of
investigation and defense and reasonable attorneys' fees) or diminution of
value, whether or not involving a third-party claim (collectively, "Damages"),
arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with:

                  (a) any Breach of any representation or warranty made by
         Sellers in this Agreement (without giving effect to any supplement to
         the Disclosure Letter), the Disclosure Letter, the supplements to the
         Disclosure Letter, or any other certificate or document delivered by
         Sellers pursuant to this Agreement;

                  (b) any Breach of any representation or warranty made by
         Sellers in this Agreement as if such representation or warranty were
         made on and as of the Closing Date without giving effect to any
         supplement to the Disclosure Letter, other than any such Breach that is
         disclosed in a supplement to the Disclosure Letter and is expressly
         identified in the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(v)
         as having caused the condition specified in Section 7.1 not to be
         satisfied;

                  (c) any Breach by either Seller of any covenant or obligation
         of such Seller in this Agreement;

                  (d) any product shipped or manufactured by, or any services
         provided by, the Acquired Company prior to the Closing Date;

                  (e) any matter disclosed in the Disclosure Letter; or

                  (f) any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder's fees or
         commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or
         understanding alleged to have been made by any such Person with either
         Seller or the Acquired Company (or any Person acting on their behalf)
         in connection with any of the Contemplated Transactions.

                                       35

<PAGE>

The remedies provided in this Section 10.2 will not be exclusive of or limit any
other remedies that may be available to Buyer or the other Indemnified Persons.
The Buyer also has the right of set off against any royalty payments.





         10.3 Indemnification and Payment of Damages by Buyer. Buyer will
indemnify and hold harmless Sellers, and will pay to Sellers the amount of any
Damages arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with (a) any
Breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement or in
any certificate delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, (b) any Breach by
Buyer of any covenant or obligation of Buyer in this Agreement, or (c) any claim
by any Person for brokerage or finder's fees or commissions or similar payments
based upon any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by such
Person with Buyer (or any Person acting on its behalf) in connection with any of
the Contemplated Transactions.

         10.5 Time Limitations. If the Closing occurs, Sellers will have no
liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any representation
or warranty, or covenant or obligation to be performed and complied with prior
to the Closing Date, other than those in Sections 3.3, 3.11, 3.13, and 3.19,
unless on or before January 1, 2007 Buyer notifies Sellers of a claim specifying
the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by
Buyer; a claim with respect to Section 3.3, 3.11, 3.13, or 3.19, or a claim for
indemnification or reimbursement not based upon any representation or warranty
or any covenant or obligation to be performed and complied with prior to the
Closing Date, may be made at any time. If the Closing occurs, Buyer will have no
liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any representation
or warranty, or covenant or obligation to be performed and complied with prior
to the Closing Date

         10.6     Procedure for Indemnification--Third Party Claims.

                  (a) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
         Section 10.2, 10.4, or (to the extent provided in the last sentence of
         Section 10.3) Section 10.3 of notice of the commencement of any
         Proceeding against it, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be
         made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give notice to
         the indemnifying party of the commencement of such claim, but the
         failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the
         indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified
         party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates
         that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the indemnifying
         party's failure to give such notice.

                                       36

<PAGE>

                  (b) If any Proceeding is brought against an indemnified party
         and it gives notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of
         such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will, unless the claim involves
         Taxes, be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent
         that it wishes (unless (i) the indemnifying party is also a party to
         such Proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that
         joint representation would be inappropriate, or (ii) the indemnifying
         party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the indemnified party of
         its financial capacity to defend such Proceeding and provide
         indemnification with respect to such Proceeding), to assume the defense
         of such Proceeding with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party
         and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party
         of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the
         indemnifying party will not, as long as it diligently conducts such
         defense, be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 10 for
         any fees of other 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. 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 Legal Requirements
         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. If notice is given to an indemnifying
         party of the commencement of any Proceeding and the indemnifying party
         does not, within ten days after the indemnified party's notice is
         given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume
         the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by
         any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or
         settlement effected by the indemnified party.

                  (c) 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).

                  (d) Sellers hereby consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction
         of any court in which a Proceeding is brought against any Indemnified
         Person for purposes of any claim that an Indemnified Person may have
         under this Agreement with respect to such Proceeding or the matters
         alleged therein, and agree that process may be served on Sellers with
         respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.

Agreement, each party to this Agreement will bear its respective expenses
incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, and performance of this
Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, including all fees and expenses of
agents, representatives, counsel, and accountants in connection with this
Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions. Sellers will cause the Acquired
Companies not to incur any out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this

arising from a breach of this Agreement by another party.

         11.2 Public Announcements. Any public announcement or similar publicity
with respect to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions will be issued,
if at all, at such time and in such manner as Buyer determines. Unless consented
to by Buyer in advance or required by Legal Requirements, prior to the Closing
Sellers shall, and shall cause the Acquired Company to, keep this Agreement
strictly confidential and may not make any disclosure of this Agreement to any
Person. Sellers and Buyer will consult with each other concerning the means by
which the Acquired Company's employees, customers, and suppliers and others
having dealings with the Acquired Companies will be informed of the Contemplated
Transactions, and Buyer will have the right to be present for any such
communication.

Closing Date, Sellers will maintain in confidence, and will cause the officers,
employees, agents, and advisors of Buyer and the Acquired Company to maintain in

confidentiality or such information becomes publicly available through no fault
of such party, (b) the use of such information is necessary or appropriate in
making any filing or obtaining any consent or approval required for the
consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, or (c) the furnishing or use of
such information is required by legal proceedings.

mailed by registered mail, return receipt requested, or (c) when received by the
addressee, if sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service

         11.5 Arbitration ;Jurisdiction; Service of Process. The Parties
acknowledge that they are entering into and shall perform under this Agreement
in good faith, and any disputes will be resolved in good faith, with the letter
and spirit of this Agreement as the standard. The Parties will use their best
efforts to resolve any disputes between themselves within thirty (30) days.
During this thirty (30) day period, any party with ten (10) days' notice may
request and the other party must agree to meet in good faith to resolve the
dispute. After thirty day's effort, if a dispute is not resolved, any party may
refer the dispute for final settlement to and in accord with under the
Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the "Rules") by a
panel of three (3) arbitrators. In the case of any matter to be settled under
the Rules, each party hereto shall appoint one arbitrator and such two
arbitrators shall appoint a third arbitrator; provided, that if all three
arbitrators have not been appointed within thirty (30) days after the party
submitting the matter in dispute has notified the other party of such
submission, either party hereto may apply to the International Chamber of
Commerce for appointment of the remaining arbitrators. The place of arbitration
of any matter to be settled under the Rules shall be in New York City or at such
other place as the parties shall unanimously choose. On a case-by-case basis,
the parties may also agree to alternative dispute resolution methods. Such an
Agreement must be in writing and signed by both parties.

         11.6 Applicable Law, Enforcement. This Agreement is an international
agreement and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the substantive
laws of New York, without regard to conflict of laws provisions. Each party
hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that any action to enforce
a decision rendered in an arbitration proceeding described in Article 8 may be
instituted (i) in Armenian courts, (ii) in the courts of the State of New York,
the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New
York, and appellate courts thereof, or (iii) in the courts of the United Kingdom
and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, any objection of the convenience of the forum of
any such legal suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably submits generally and
unconditionally to the jurisdiction in any such court in any suit, action or
proceeding.

         11.7 Further Assurances. The parties agree (a) to furnish upon request
to each other such further information, (b) to execute and deliver to each other
such other documents, and (c) to do such other acts and things, all as the other
party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this
Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement.

         11.8 Waiver. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement
are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by any
party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or the
documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right,
power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power,
or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power,
or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To the
maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of
this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged
by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or
right unless in writing signed by the other party; (b) no waiver that may be
given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it
is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a
waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving such
notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in
this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

prior agreements between the parties with respect to its subject matter and
constitutes (along with the documents referred to in this Agreement) a complete
and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with
respect to its subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended except by a
written agreement executed by the party to be charged with the amendment.

         11.10    Disclosure Letter.

                  (a) The disclosures in the Disclosure Letter, and those in any
         Supplement thereto, must relate only to the representations and

         relate and not to any other representation or warranty in this
         Agreement.

         with respect to a specifically identified representation or warranty),
         the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

may assign any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior consent of
the other parties, which will not be unreasonably withheld, except that Buyer
may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to any Subsidiary of Buyer.
Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in
all respects upon, and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted

provisions and conditions are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties
to this Agreement and their successors and assigns.

         11.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid
or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of
this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this
Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in
full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.
