Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” and, to the extent permitted by law,
treat the Merger for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a “reorganization”
within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended. The parties acknowledge and agree, however, that each (i) has had
the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) is responsible for paying
its own Taxes, including without limitation, any adverse Tax consequences that
may result if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is determined not
to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368 of the Code.

REMEDIES

     

    11.1        Survival.  All
representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations made by Chardan Corp. or
Chardan Shareholders in this Agreement, and in any certificate or other
agreements delivered by Chardan Corp. or the Chardan Shareholders pursuant to
this Agreement shall survive for such period of time as the representations,
warranties and covenants made by the Company to the Purchasers in the Purchase
Agreement shall survive, except that any representations, warranties covenants
and obligations with respect to Taxes shall expire sixty (60) days after the
expiration of the applicable statute of limitations period (the “Survival
Period”).  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, 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.

     

    11.2        Indemnification in favor of
the Company and the Shareholders.  From and after the Closing
Date until the expiration of the Survival Period, Chardan Shareholders will
severally indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Shareholders, and
their respective officers, directors, agents, attorneys and employees, and each
person, if any, who controls or may “control” (within the meaning of the
Securities Act) any of the forgoing persons or entities (hereinafter referred to
individually as a “Company
Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all Damages arising out of
any (i) any breach of representation or warranty made by Chardan Corp. or
Chardan Shareholders in this Agreement, and in any certificate delivered by
Chardan Corp. or Chardan Shareholders pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) any
breach by Chardan Corp. or Chardan Shareholders of any covenant, obligation or
other agreement made by Chardan Corp. or Chardan Shareholders in this Agreement,
(iii) any third-party claim based on any acts or omissions by Chardan Corp. or
Chardan Shareholders from the date hereof through and including the Closing Date
and (iv) any breach of the obligations of disclosing true, correct and entire
information pursuant to the term of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Chardan Shareholders’ total
indemnification obligations under this Section 11.2 shall be limited to and
shall not under any circumstances exceed the lesser of (A) $2,500,000 or (B) the
amount actually realized, net of taxes, by Chardan Shareholders from the sale of
the Company Shares.

    11.3       Tax
Indemnification.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Chardan Shareholders shall be responsible at their sole
cost and expense for the preparation and timely filing of the Final Tax Returns,
and for timely paying any Tax shown as due on the Final Tax Returns; provided
that the Company and its accountants shall be given a reasonable opportunity to
review and comment on such Tax Returns prior to the filing thereof and shall be
given copies of such Tax Returns promptly after the filing thereof, and the
Company and the Chardan Shareholders shall cooperate with each other in the
preparation of such Tax Returns and in any Tax proceedings relating
thereto.  The Chardan Shareholders shall also indemnify and hold
harmless each Company Indemnified Person from and against any and all Damages
arising from any Taxes of Chardan Corp. attributable to any taxable period (or
portion thereof) ended or ending on or prior to the Closing Date.  In
the event that the Company receives a notice of any Tax examinations, claims,
adjustments or other proceedings that affect any of the Tax liabilities of
Chardan Corp. for any such tax periods, the Company shall provide a copy of such
notice to the Chardan Shareholders within five business days of the receipt of
such notice, and the Chardan Shareholders shall be entitled at their sole cost
and expense to handle, control and compromise or settle all such proceedings for
Taxes for which it is required to indemnify a Company Indemnified Person
pursuant to this Section 11.3; provided that the Chardan Shareholders shall be
responsible for paying, and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Company
Indemnified Person for, any and all Taxes or other Damages arising out of or
resulting from any such Tax proceedings.

     

    SECTION
XII

    GENERAL
PROVISIONS

     

    12.1       Expenses.  Except
as otherwise expressly provided in this 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 transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, including all fees and expenses of agents, representatives,
counsel, and accountants. In the event of termination of this Agreement, the
obligation of each party to pay its own expenses will be subject to any rights
of such party arising from a breach of this Agreement by another
party.  For purposes of clarification, Chardan Corp. acknowledges that
the Company will not assume the payment of any of the Chardan Corp. Expenses,
which payment shall be the sole obligation of Chardan Corp. prior to the Merger
and the Chardan Shareholders, after the Merger as set forth in Section 10.9
hereof.

     

    12.2       Confidentiality.

     

    12.2.1      Subject
to Section 12.2.2 below, Chardan Corp., Chardan Shareholders, the Shareholders
and the Company will maintain in confidence, and will cause their respective
directors, officers, employees, agents, and advisors to maintain in confidence,
any written, oral, or other information obtained in confidence from another
party in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, unless (a) such information is already known to such party or to
others not bound by a duty of 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 required filing with the
Commission, or obtaining any consent or approval required for the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (c) the furnishing or use
of such information is required by or necessary or appropriate in connection
with legal proceedings.

     

    
      
         


      

      
        37

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    12.2.2       In
the event that any party is required to disclose any information of another
party pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of Section 12.2.1, the party requested or
required to make the disclosure (the “disclosing party”) shall
provide the party that provided such information (the “providing party”) with prompt
notice of any such requirement so that the providing party may seek a protective
order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of
this Section 12.2.  If, in the absence of a protective order or other
remedy or the receipt of a waiver by the providing party, the disclosing party
is nonetheless, in the opinion of counsel, legally compelled to disclose the
information of the providing party, the disclosing party may, without liability
hereunder, disclose only that portion of the providing party’s information which
such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed, provided that the
disclosing party exercises its reasonable efforts to preserve the
confidentiality of the providing party’s information, including, without
limitation, by cooperating with the providing party to obtain an appropriate
protective order or other relief assurance that confidential treatment will be
accorded the providing party’s information.

     

    12.3       Notices.  All
notices, demands, consents, requests, instructions and other communications to
be given or delivered or permitted under or by reason of the provisions of this
Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to be delivered and received by the intended
recipient as follows: (i) if personally delivered, on the business day of such
delivery (as evidenced by the receipt of the personal delivery service), (ii) if
mailed certified or registered mail return receipt requested, upon the business
day of delivery (as evidenced by a receipt signed by the receiving party), (iii)
if delivered by overnight courier (with all charges having been prepaid), on the
business day of such delivery (as evidenced by the receipt of the overnight
courier service of recognized standing), or (iv) if delivered by facsimile
transmission, on the business day of such delivery if sent by 6:00 p.m. in the
time zone of the recipient, or if sent after that time, on the next succeeding
business day (as evidenced by the printed confirmation of delivery generated by
the sending party’s telecopier machine).  If any notice, demand,
consent, request, instruction or other communication cannot be delivered because
of a changed address of which no notice was given (in accordance with this
Section 12.4), or the refusal to accept same, the notice, demand, consent,
request, instruction or other communication shall be deemed received on the
second business day the notice is sent (as evidenced by a sworn affidavit of the
sender).  All such notices, demands, consents, requests, instructions
and other communications will be sent to the following addresses or facsimile
numbers as applicable.

    12.4         Arbitration.  Any
dispute or controversy under this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by

rules of the American Arbitration Association then in
effect.  Judgment may be entered on the arbitration award in any court

    12.5         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.

     

    12.6         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.

     

    12.7         Entire Agreement and
Modification.  This Agreement supersedes all 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 against whom the enforcement of such amendment
is sought.

    12.8         Assignments, Successors, and
No Third-Party Rights.  No party may assign any of its rights
under this Agreement without the prior consent of the other
parties.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply
to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by the respective successors and permitted assigns of the
parties.  Except as set forth in Section 11.3 hereof, nothing
expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person
other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy,
or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this
Agreement.  This Agreement and all of its provisions and conditions
are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties to this Agreement and
their successors and assigns.

     

    12.9         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.

     

    12.10       Section Headings,
Construction.  The headings of Sections in this Agreement are
provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or
interpretation.  All references to “Section” or “Sections” refer to
the corresponding Section or Sections of this Agreement.  All words
used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the
circumstances require.  Unless otherwise expressly provided, the word
“including” does not limit the preceding words or terms.

     

    12.11       Governing
Law.  This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State
of New York without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

     

    12.12       Counterparts.  This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be
deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken
together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.  In
the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail
delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and
binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf”
