                            STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

               THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "AGREEMENT") is made and
entered into as of November 30, 1998 by and among Brite Voice Systems, Inc., a
Kansas corporation ("BRITE"), BVS Investco, Inc., a newly formed Delaware
corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Brite ("SELLER"), TSL Services, Inc.,
a newly formed Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Seller (the
"COMPANY") and ProfitSource Corporation, a Delaware corporation or its assignee
("BUYER").

               A. Brite, acting through its Telecom Services Limited division,
is engaged in the business of telecommunications cost control, including,
without limitation, the provision of billing verification services, call
accounting services, software development, managed invoice processing, and
professional technical temporary staffing (the "BUSINESS").

               B. Brite desires to sell and assign to Buyer, and Buyer desires
to purchase and assume from Brite, those certain assets, rights and obligations
of Brite described herein related to the Business by transferring such assets,
rights and obligations to the Seller, which in turn will transfer such assets,
rights and obligations to the Company, and will transfer all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of the Company to Buyer, all on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement.

               NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and
the mutual representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein, and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.      SALE AND TRANSFER

        1.1 ASSETS.

        (a) Acquired Assets. On the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement, on December 1, 1998, (i) Brite, pursuant to a
Contribution Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A
(the "SELLER CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT") shall convey, transfer, assign, sell and
deliver to Seller, and Seller shall acquire and accept, all of the assets,
properties and rights of Brite listed on Schedule 1.1(a) (the "ACQUIRED
ASSETS"); and (ii) Seller, pursuant to a Contribution Agreement in substantially
the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "COMPANY CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT")
shall convey, transfer, assign, sell and deliver to the Company, and the Company
shall acquire and accept, all of the Acquired Assets.

        (b) Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section
1.1(a) to the contrary, Brite will not transfer to Seller or the Company and
neither Seller nor the Company will receive, any of the assets listed on
Schedule 1.1(b) (the "EXCLUDED ASSETS"), all of which shall be retained by
Brite.

        1.2 ASSUMPTION OF CERTAIN LIABILITIES. On the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in this Agreement, immediately before the Closing,
Seller, pursuant to the Seller Contribution Agreement and the Company, pursuant
to the Company Contribution Agreement,

<PAGE>   7
shall assume those certain liabilities and obligations of Brite identified on
Schedule 1.2 (the "ASSUMED LIABILITIES"). The Company will not assume, and will
not be obligated or liable for, any liability of Brite or Seller not listed on
Schedule 1.2 including, without limitation, accounts payable incurred other than
in the ordinary course of business or other indebtedness of Brite or Seller.
Buyer and the Company will be indemnified pursuant to Section 5.2 from and
against any claims in respect of any debts, obligations or liabilities of Brite
or Seller of any nature whatsoever other than the Assumed Liabilities.

        1.3 CAPITAL STOCK. In connection with the transfers described in
Sections 1.1 and 1.2, the Company will issue to Seller 45,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock, $0.001 per share, which Shares shall be validly issued,
fully paid, and non-assessable (the "SHARES").

        1.4 SALE AND PURCHASE. On the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined)
Seller shall sell to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase from Seller, the Shares,
for the purchase price set forth in Schedule 1.4 (the "PURCHASE PRICE").

        1.5 CLOSING. The closing of the sale and purchase of the Shares (the
"CLOSING") will take place at the offices of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP, 4 Park
Plaza, Irvine, California, on the earliest practicable date, as determined by
Buyer (the "CLOSING DATE") after all the conditions set forth in Section 6 have
either been satisfied or, in the case of conditions not met, waived by the party
entitled to the benefit of such conditions. Buyer shall provide notice (the
"CLOSING NOTICE") to Brite informing Brite of the date selected as the Closing
Date. At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer or its designees a stock
certificate, duly endorsed in blank (or accompanied by duly executed stock
powers), representing the Shares being sold by Seller and each other instrument
of transfer Buyer may reasonably request to vest effectively in Buyer good and
valid title to the Shares, free and clear of any liens, pledges, options,
security interest, trusts, encumbrances or other rights or interests of any
person or entity, together with any taxes, direct or indirect, attributable to
such transfer of the Shares, and Buyer shall thereupon pay to Seller the
Purchase Price.

2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BRITE AND SELLER. Each representation and
warranty contained in this Section 2 is qualified by the disclosures made in the
disclosure schedule attached hereto as Schedule 2 (the "DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE").
This Section 2 and the Disclosure Schedule shall be read together as an
integrated provision. Brite and Seller represent and warrant to Buyer that:

        2.1 ORGANIZATION AND AUTHORITY. Brite is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Kansas, with full corporate power and authority to carry on the Business as it
is now and has since its organization been conducted and as proposed to be
conducted, and to own or lease and operate the Acquired Assets. Seller and the
Company are corporations duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Delaware.

        2.2 AUTHORIZATION OF AGREEMENT. Brite and Seller have all requisite
corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement and all other agreements and
instruments to be executed by the parties hereto in connection herewith,
together with all other documents to be delivered in connection


                                       2
<PAGE>   8

herewith or therewith, (collectively, the "TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS"), have been
(or upon execution will have been) duly executed and delivered by Brite, Seller
and the Company and effectively authorized by all necessary action, corporate or
otherwise, and constitute (or upon execution will constitute) legal, valid and
binding obligations of Brite, Seller and the Company, as the case may be, except
as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity and
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and moratorium and other similar laws
relating to creditors' rights (the "BANKRUPTCY EXCEPTION.")

        2.3 ACQUIRED ASSETS.

        (a) Ownership. Before the transfers to Seller and the Company
described in Section 1.1, Brite is the lawful and sole owner of and has the
right to use and transfer to Seller, and Seller has the right to receive from
Brite and immediately transfer to the Company, each of the Acquired Assets. The
Acquired Assets are free and clear of all liens, mortgages, pledges, security
interests, restrictions, prior assignments, encumbrances and claims of any kind.
The execution and delivery of the Seller Contribution Agreement by Brite and
Seller and the Company Contribution Agreement by Seller and the Company will
vest good and marketable title to the Acquired Assets in the Company, free and
clear of all liens, mortgages, pledges, security interests, restrictions, prior
assignments, encumbrances and claims of any kind.

        (b) Sufficiency of Assets. Except for the Excluded Assets, the
Acquired Assets (i) constitute all of the assets and properties used by Brite in
connection with the operation of the Business; and (ii) are sufficient and
adequate to conduct the Business.

        2.4 FINANCIAL CONDITION.

        (a) Financial Statements. Schedule 2.4 sets forth the balance sheets
of the Business as of December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1997 and the related
statements of income and cash flow of the Business for the fiscal years then
ended (the "ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS") and the balance sheet, and the related
statements of income and cash flow of the Business for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1998 (the "INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS," and with the
Annual Financial Statements, the "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS"). The Financial
Statements (i) were prepared in accordance with the books and records of Brite;
(ii) were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied; (iii) fairly present the financial condition and the
results of the operations of the Business as at the relevant dates thereof and
for the periods covered thereby; (iv) contain and reflect all necessary
adjustments and accruals for a fair presentation of the financial condition and
the results of the operations of the Business as a stand alone entity without
affiliation with Brite for the periods covered by the Financial Statements
(except that the Interim Financial Statements are subject to year-end
adjustments, the net effect of which will not represent a Material Adverse
Change); (v) contain and reflect adequate provisions for all reasonably
anticipated liabilities, excluding those for all taxes, federal, state, local or
foreign, with respect to the period then ended and all prior periods; (vi)
reflect accurately in all material respects the assets, liabilities, costs and
expenses of the Business as at the relevant date thereof and for the period
covered thereby; (vii) do not contain any items of a special or nonrecurring
nature, except as expressly stated therein; and (viii) are in all material
respects accurate, complete and correct. The Financial Statements accurately
reflect all information normally reported to the independent public accountants
of Brite for the


                                       3
<PAGE>   9

preparation of its financial statements. There have been no changes in
accounting principles or practices during the periods covered by the Financial
Statements.

        (b) Absence of Certain Changes. Since September 30, 1998 there has
not been any Material Adverse Change, or any event, action, or circumstance of
the kind described in Section 4.4. For purposes of this Agreement, a "MATERIAL
ADVERSE CHANGE" means any event, circumstance, condition, development or
occurrence causing, resulting in, having, or that could reasonably be expected
to have, a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business,
prospects, properties or results of operations of the Business, the Company, or
the Acquired Assets.

        2.5 CERTAIN PROPERTY OF BRITE.

        (a) Real Property. Brite does not own any real property used in
connection with the Business. Schedule 2.5(a) sets forth a true and complete
list of all real properties leased by Brite for use in connection with the
Business, including a brief description of the operating facilities located
thereon, the annual rent payable thereon, the length of the term, any option to
renew with respect thereto and the notice and other provisions with respect to
termination of rights to the use thereof.

                      (i) Until transfer to the Company pursuant to Section 1.1,
        Brite has a valid leasehold in the real property shown in Schedule
        2.5(a), as leased by it, in each case under written leases that are
        valid and enforceable (except as enforceability may be limited by the
        Bankruptcy Exception) (each lease being referred to herein as a "REAL
        PROPERTY LEASE", and collectively the "REAL PROPERTY LEASES") and to the
        knowledge of Brite each Real Property Lease is a valid and binding
        obligation of each of the other parties thereto (except as
        enforceability may be limited by the Bankruptcy Exception);

                      (ii) Brite is not, and Brite and Seller do not have any
        knowledge that any other party to any Real Property Lease is, in default
        with respect to any material term or condition thereof, and Brite and
        Seller do not have any knowledge that any event has occurred which
        through the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would
        constitute a default thereunder or would cause the acceleration of any
        obligation of any party thereto or the creation of a lien or encumbrance
        upon any asset of Seller.

        (b) Personal Property. Schedule 2.5(b) lists all , furniture,
fixtures, equipment and other items of tangible personal property owned or
leased by Brite and used in connection with the Business, other than Excluded
Assets (the "PERSONAL PROPERTY"). All items of Personal Property are in good
operating condition and repair. Schedule 2.5(b) correctly identifies each item
of Personal Property as owned or leased by Brite. The items of Personal Property
identified as owned are Acquired Assets, and the items of Personal Property
identified as leased are leased pursuant to lease agreements that are Acquired
Assets. All of such leases are valid and in full force and effect and none of
such Personal Property is subject to any sublease, license or other agreement
granting to any person any right to use such property (each such lease,
sublease, license or other agreement, a "PERSONAL PROPERTY LEASE" and
collectively the "PERSONAL PROPERTY LEASES"). Prior to transfer pursuant to
Section 1.1 Brite is not in breach of or default,


                                       4
<PAGE>   10

and no event has occurred which, with due notice or lapse of time or both, may
constitute such a breach or default, under any Personal Property Lease.

        (c) Proprietary Rights.

            (i) Schedule 2.5(c) sets forth a true and complete list of all
Proprietary Rights (either registered, applied for, or common law) owned by,
registered in the name of, licensed to, or otherwise used by Brite in connection
with the Business. For purposes of this Agreement "PROPRIETARY RIGHTS" means
trademarks and service marks (registered or unregistered), trade dress, trade
names including, without limitation, the names "TSL", "Telecom Services
Limited", "TOMS", "Fraud-Check, and "EZ-View" and other names and slogans
embodying business or product goodwill or indications of origin associated with
the Business, all applications or registrations in any jurisdiction pertaining
to the foregoing and all goodwill associated therewith, as well as the following
used in connection with the Business, but specifically excluding any such
Proprietary Rights used by Brite in the Business and in other aspects of its
business: (i) patents, patentable inventions, discoveries, improvements, ideas,
know-how, formulas, methodologies, processes, technology and computer programs,
software and databases (including source code, object code, development
documentation, programming tools, drawings, specifications and data) associated,
developed or used in connection with the Business, and all applications or
registrations in any jurisdiction pertaining to the foregoing, including all
reissues, continuations, divisions, continuations-in-part, renewals or
extensions thereof; (ii) trade secrets, know-how, including confidential and
other non-public information associated, developed or used in connection with
the Business, and the right in any jurisdiction to limit the use or disclosure
thereof; (iii) copyrights in writings, designs, mask works or other works
associated, developed or used in connection with the Business, and registrations
or applications for registration of copyrights in any jurisdiction; (iv)
licenses, including, without limitation, software licenses, immunities,
covenants not to sue and the like relating to any of the foregoing; (v) Internet
Web sites, domain names and registrations or applications for registration
thereof associated, developed or used in connection with the Business; (vi)
customer lists associated, developed or used in connection with the Business;
(vii) books and records describing or used in connection with any of the
foregoing; (viii) claims or causes of action arising out of or related to
infringement or misappropriation of any of the foregoing.

            (ii) Until transfer pursuant to Section 1.1, all of the Proprietary
Rights used in connection with the Business are owned by Brite free and clear of
any and all liens, security interests, claims, charges and encumbrances or are
used by Brite pursuant to a valid and enforceable license granting rights
sufficiently broad to permit the historical and anticipated uses of such
Proprietary Rights in connection with the Business. Brite, and after transfer
pursuant to Section 1.1, the Company, has the right and authority to use the
Proprietary Rights in connection with the conduct of the Business in the manner

restrictions, or legal or equitable claims of others, and has taken all
reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality, and value
of the Trade Secrets.

            (vii) To the knowledge of Brite and Seller, all the Trade Secrets
are presently valid and protectible and are not part of the public knowledge or
literature; and have not, to the knowledge of Brite and Seller, been used,
divulged, or appropriated for the benefit of any past or present employees or
other persons, or to the detriment of Brite and Seller or the Business.

        2.6 YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE. All date-related output, calculations or
results before, during or after the calendar year 2000 that are produced or used
by any material hardware, software, firmware or facilities systems (the
"COMPUTER SYSTEMS") used by Brite in connection with the Business are Year 2000

        (a) All dates receivable by the Computer Systems, as well as
calculations, output and results will (i) include a consistent-length century
indicator of at least two base ten digits, and (ii) have date elements in
interfaces and data storage that will permit specifying the century to eliminate

interface or in data storage, the correct century will be unambiguous for all
manipulations involving that data;

        (c) Data calculations involving either a single century or multiple

generate incorrect results or results inconsistent with output or results from
any other century;

chronological sequence; and when the date is used as a key, records will be read
and written in accurate chronological sequence; and

ending in 00, but (ii) a year ending in 00 is a leap year if dividing it by 400
yields an integer.

        2.7 NO CONFLICT OR VIOLATION. The execution, delivery and performance
by Brite, Seller and the Company of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will
not: (i) violate or conflict with any provision of the charter documents or
bylaws of Brite, Seller or the Company; (ii) violate any provision or

plan.

        (c) There are no contracts, agreements, plans or arrangements
covering any Business Personnel with "change of control" or similar provisions
(each, a "CHANGE OF CONTROL ARRANGEMENT"). There is no contract, agreement, plan
or arrangement covering Brite, or any Business Personnel, that individually or
collectively could give rise to the payment of any amount that would not be
deductible pursuant to the terms of Section 280G of the Code. Neither Brite or
any of its ERISA Affiliates has incurred any liability with respect to Business
Personnel under the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act or any
similar state law relating to employment termination in connection with a mass
layoff, plant closing or similar event, and the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement will not give rise to any such liability.

        2.10 LITIGATION. There are no claims, actions, suits, proceedings,
labor disputes or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of Brite and
Seller, threatened before any Governmental Entity of any nature, brought by or

2.11(b)-(f) below, with respect to service and other customer contracts referred
to in (iii) above, other than the 1998 Contracts (as defined below), Brite and
Seller make no representations or warranties as to whether each Contract is
valid, binding and enforceable against the parties thereto in accordance with
its terms, whether each Contract is in full force and effect on the date hereof,

and is in full force and effect on the date hereof. Brite has performed all
obligations required to be performed by it under, and is not in material default
or breach of, any Contract, and no event has occurred which, with due notice or

complete originals or copies of all the Contracts and a copy of every Material
Notice received by Brite since January 1, 1996 with respect to any of the

that could lead to cancellation or material modification of a contract or
intention to terminate or materially modify a contract, and is not intended to
include routine correspondence.

        (f)  None of the Contracts provides for consent of any party thereto,

Licenses are sufficient and adequate in all material respects to permit the
continued lawful conduct of the Business in the manner now conducted and the
ownership, occupancy and operation of its properties for their present uses and
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. No jurisdiction in
which Brite is not qualified or licensed as a foreign corporation in connection
with the Business has demanded or requested that it qualify or become licensed
as a foreign corporation. Brite has delivered to Buyer or its representatives
true and complete copies of all the Licenses together with all amendments and
modifications thereto.

        4.5 RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.

        (a) Non-Competition. After the Closing, without the prior written
consent of Buyer, Brite and Seller will not, directly or indirectly engage or
become interested in, as owner, employee, partner, through equity ownership,
investment of capital, lending of money or property, rendering of services, or
otherwise, either alone or in association with others, any business competitive
with the Business (including within the definition of the Business, without
limitation, any business of the type or types conducted by Brite through its
Telecom Services division at any time during the two (2) year period preceding
the Closing Date or under development by Brite in connection with the Business
on the Closing Date) in any county or any other political subdivision of any
state of the United States of America or of any other country in the world where
Brite conducted the Business at any time during the two (2) year period
preceding the Closing Date. This covenant not to compete shall extend for a
period of three (3) years from the Closing Date. The parties hereto agree that
the duration and area for which the covenant not to compete set forth in this
Section 4.4 is to be effective are reasonable.

        (b) Confidentiality. Brite and Seller acknowledge their intent to
fully and effectively convey to Buyer all Proprietary Rights to be transferred
to Buyer pursuant hereto, including, without limitation, each Trade Secret.
Accordingly, notwithstanding the expiration of the covenant not to compete set
forth in this Section 4.4 Brite and Seller shall at all times keep


                                       20
<PAGE>   26
confidential and shall not disclose to others any Proprietary Rights and shall
not use or permit to be used any Proprietary Rights for any purpose other than
performance of obligations to Buyer.

        (c) Non-Diversion. For a period of three (3) years following the date
hereof Brite and Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of their Affiliates
to, divert or attempt to divert or take advantage of or attempt to take
advantage of any actual or potential business or opportunities related to the
Business.

        (d) Non-Recruitment. For a period of three (3) years following the
date hereof, Brite and Seller will not, and shall not permit any of their
Affiliates to, hire away, or cause any other person to hire away, any of the
Business Personnel hired or retained by the Company after the Closing, or any
employee of Buyer or its Affiliates, or directly or indirectly entice or solicit
or seek to induce or influence any of such persons to leave their employment.

        (e) Remedies. The covenants contained in Section 4.4 impose a
reasonable restraint on Brite and Seller in light of the activities and business
of Brite and Seller and future plans of Buyer. Brite and Seller acknowledge that
if Brite or Seller violates any of the covenants contained in this Section 4.4
(collectively, the "RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS"), it will be difficult to determine
the resulting damages to Buyer and, in addition to any other remedies Buyer may
have, (i) Buyer shall be entitled to temporary injunctive relief without being
required to post a bond and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of
proving actual damages, and (ii) Buyer shall have the right to offset payment
obligations to Seller to the extent of any money damages incurred or suffered by
Buyer. The Prevailing Party (as defined in Section 7.15) shall be reimbursed by
the non-prevailing party for all costs including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses that may be incurred in enforcing or defending, to any extent, any of
the Restrictive Covenants, whether or not litigation is actually commenced and
including litigation of any appeal defended by Buyer where such party succeeds
in enforcing any of the Restrictive Covenants. Buyer may elect to seek one or
more remedies at its discretion on a case by case basis. Failure to seek any or
all remedies in one case shall not restrict Buyer from seeking any remedies in
another situation. Such action by Buyer shall not constitute a waiver of any of
its rights.

        (f) Severability and Modification of any Unenforceable Covenant. Each
of the Restrictive Covenants will be read and interpreted with every reasonable
inference given to its enforceability. However, if any term, provision or
condition of the Restrictive Covenants is held by a court or arbitrator to be
invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions thereof shall
remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or
invalidated. If a court or arbitrator should determine any of the Restrictive
Covenants are unenforceable because of over-breadth, then the court or
arbitrator shall modify such covenant so as to make it enforceable to the
fullest extent the court or arbitrator deems reasonable and enforceable under
the prevailing circumstances. The covenant not to compete shall be deemed to be
a series of separate covenants, one for each and every county of each and every
state of the United States of America and each and every political subdivision
of each and every country outside the United States of America where the
Business was conducted before the Closing.

        4.6 TAXES.

        (a) Brite's Responsibilities for Taxes. Brite and Seller shall be liable
for, and shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its directors,
officers, employees, attorneys


                                       21
<PAGE>   27

and agents from and against any and all Taxes of any kind or character that are
(i) imposed on Seller, Brite or its group (other than Company) for any taxable
year or (ii) imposed on Company, or for which Company may otherwise be liable,
for any taxable year or period that ends on or before the Closing Date and, with
respect to any taxable year or period beginning before and ending after the
Closing Date, the portions of such taxable year ending on and including the
Closing Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such
indemnification obligation of Brite and Seller shall include (i) any obligation
to contribute to the payment of a tax determined on a consolidated, combined or
unitary basis with respect to a group of corporations that includes or included
Company and Taxes resulting from Company ceasing to be affiliated with Brite
(or, if applicable, to be a member of Brite's consolidated, combined or unitary
group) or attributable to the election to be made under Section 338(h)(10) of
the Code, and (ii) any deferred income recharacterized as income by reason of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-13 and Treasury Regulations Section
1.1502-14 and any excess loss accounts taken into income under Treasury
Regulations Section 1.1502-19 (and any similar state, local or foreign
provision). The indemnification obligation provided hereunder shall include
indemnification for costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees and
expenses and other costs and expenses associated with defense of a claim or
incurred in obtaining indemnification hereunder, whether or not they are
incurred in a formal proceeding.

        (b) Brite's Tax Return Filing Obligations. Brite shall file or cause to
be filed when due (i) all consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Returns that are
required to be filed by or with respect to Company for taxable years or periods
ending on or before the Closing Date and (ii) all other Tax Returns that are
required to be filed by or with respect to Company that are due on or prior to
the closing Date, and Brite shall pay any Taxes due in respect of (i) or (ii)
above. Brite will take no position (unless required by law) or make any election
on such Tax Returns that would adversely affect the Tax position of Company
after the Closing Date.

        (c) Buyer's Responsibilities for Taxes. Buyer shall be liable for all
Taxes of Company for any taxable year or period that begins after November 30,
1998 and, with respect to any taxable year or period beginning before and ending
after November 30, 1998, the portion of such taxable year beginning after
November 30, 1998.

        (d) Buyer's Tax Return Filing Obligations. Buyer shall file or cause to
be filed when due all Tax Returns that are required to be filed by or with
respect to Company, other than the consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Returns
referred to in Section 4.5(b) above, that are due after the Closing Date, and
Buyer shall pay any Taxes due in respect of the Tax Returns described above,
subject to reimbursement by Brite for Taxes Brite or Seller is liable for under
Section 4.5(a) above.

        (e) Taxes for Short Taxable Year. Whenever it is necessary to determine
the liability under this Section 4.5 for Taxes of Company for a portion of a
taxable year or period that begins before and ends after November 30, 1998, the
determination of the Taxes of Company for the portion of the year or period
ending on, and the portion of the year or period beginning after November 30,
1998, shall be determined by assuming that Company had a taxable year or period
which ended at the close of November 30, 1998 and that Company closed its books
at that time.

        (f) Review of Tax Returns and Other Filings. To the extent that one
party (the "nonfiling party") would be liable under this Section 4.5 for Taxes
payable with respect to,


                                       22
<PAGE>   28

or would otherwise be subject to increased liability for Taxes as a result of,
Tax Returns or other filings filed by another party (the "other party"), the
other party shall allow the nonfiling party adequate opportunity to review and
comment on such Tax Returns or other filings and shall not file such Tax Returns
or other filings without the consent of the nonfiling party; provided, such

further, that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

        (g) Contest Provisions. Buyer, Seller and Brite shall promptly notify
each other in writing upon receipt by any of them, or any of their affiliates,

liabilities of Savings for which Brite or Seller would be required to indemnify
Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

action with respect to such claim, without the consent of Buyer, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld.

Company is eligible for such election. If the election is made, Seller and Buyer
shall on the Closing Date exchange completed and executed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form 8023, required schedules thereto, and any similar state and
foreign forms. If Buyer determines that any changes are required in these forms
as a result of information which is first available after the Closing Date,
Seller will promptly cooperate with respect to such changes.

purchase price and an allocation of that price among the assets of Company that

state or foreign law equivalent. Company and Brite shall use the asset values
determined from such allocation for purposes of all reports and returns with
respect to Taxes, including Internal Revenue Service Form 8594 or any equivalent
statement.

        (j) Efforts to Obtain Certain Documents. Brite and Seller shall, upon
request, use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate or other
document from any governmental authority or any other person as may be necessary
to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any tax that could be imposed on Company
(including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated by

and give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring,
destroying or discarding any such records and information; provided, if Buyer so
requests, after receiving notice that such records are to be destroyed or
discarded, Brite shall allow Buyer to take possession of such books and records;

thereof known to Buyer) of the respective tax period to which such books and
records relate;

            (vii) provide, upon request, all information that may be required

Real Property Lease, Brite shall remain liable to the landlord and his
successors and assigns upon such Real Property Lease; provided, however that

be required to pay under such Real Property Lease which the Company, had the
lease been assigned, should have paid after December 1, 1998 under such Real

<PAGE>   36

agents of any of them from and against any and all Losses reasonably incurred by

        5.4 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURE.

        (a) Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder (a
"CLAIM"), the party entitled to indemnification (the "INDEMNITEE") shall
promptly give written notice to the party obligated to provide indemnity (the
"INDEMNITOR") with respect to the Claim after the receipt by the Indemnitee of
reliable information of the facts constituting the basis for the Claim; but the
failure to timely give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor from any
obligation under this Agreement, except to the extent, if any, that the
Indemnitor is materially prejudiced thereby.

        (b) Upon receipt of written notice from the Indemnitee of a Claim,
the Indemnitor shall provide counsel (such counsel subject to the reasonable
approval of the Indemnitee) to defend the Indemnitee against the matter from
which the Claim arose, at the Indemnitor's sole cost, risk and expense. The
Indemnitee shall cooperate in all reasonable respects, at the Indemnitor's sole
cost, risk and expense, with the Indemnitor in the investigation, trial, defense
and any appeal arising from the matter from which the Claim arose; provided,
however, that the Indemnitee may (but shall not be obligated to) participate in
any such investigation, trial, defense and any appeal arising in connection with
the Claim. If the Indemnitee's participation in any such investigation, trial,
defense and any appeal arising from such Claim relates to a legal position or
defense that varies materially from the legal positions or defenses pursued by
the Indemnitor, and if the Indemnitee reasonably believes that the Indemnitee's
interests will be adversely and materially affected if such legal position or
defense is not pursued, the Indemnitor shall bear the expense of the
Indemnitee's separate participation, including all fees, costs and expenses of
one separate counsel for the Indemnitee (or multiple Indemnitees). If the
Indemnitee elects to so participate, the Indemnitor shall cooperate with the
Indemnitee, and the Indemnitor shall deliver to the Indemnitee or its counsel
copies of all pleadings and other information within the Indemnitor's knowledge
or possession reasonably requested by the Indemnitee or its counsel


                                       31
<PAGE>   37

that is relevant to the defense of such Claim and that will not prejudice the
Indemnitor's position, claims or defenses. The Indemnitee and its counsel shall
maintain confidentiality with respect to all such information consistent with
the conduct of a defense hereunder. The Indemnitor shall have the right to elect
to settle any claim for monetary damages only without the Indemnitee's consent,
if the settlement includes a complete release of the Indemnitee. If the
settlement does not include such a release, it will be subject to the consent of
the Indemnitee, which will not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnitor may not
admit any liability of the Indemnitee or waive any of the Indemnitee's rights
without the Indemnitee's prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably
withheld. If the subject of any Claim results in a judgment or settlement, the
Indemnitor shall promptly pay such judgment or settlement.

        (c) If the Indemnitor fails to assume the defense of the subject of
any Claim in accordance with the terms of Section 5.4(b), or if the Indemnitor
fails diligently to prosecute such defense, the Indemnitee may defend against
the subject of the Claim, at the Indemnitor's sole cost, risk and expense, in
such manner and on such terms as the Indemnitee deems appropriate, including,
without limitation, settling the subject of the Claim after giving reasonable
notice to the Indemnitor. If the Indemnitee defends the subject of a Claim in
accordance with this Section, the Indemnitor shall cooperate with the Indemnitee
and its counsel, at the Indemnitor's sole cost, risk and expense, in all
reasonable respects, and shall deliver to the Indemnitee or its counsel copies
of all pleadings and other information within the Indemnitor's knowledge or
possession reasonably requested by the Indemnitee or its counsel that are
relevant to the defense of the subject of any such Claim and that will not
prejudice the Indemnitor's position, claims or defenses. Indemnitee shall
maintain confidentiality with respect to all such information consistent with
the conduct of a defense hereunder.

        (d) The obligation of the Indemnitor to indemnify the Indemnitee
against Losses arising under this Agreement shall be in addition to any other
obligations the Indemnitor might otherwise have and any other rights the
Indemnitee might otherwise have.

        5.5 PAYMENT. All payments owing under this Section 5 will be made
promptly as indemnifiable Losses are incurred. If the Indemnitee defends the
subject matter of any Claim in accordance with Section 5.4(c) or proceeds with
separate counsel in accordance with Section 5.4(b), the expenses (including
attorneys' fees) incurred by the Indemnitee shall be paid by the Indemnitor in
advance of the final disposition of such matter as incurred by the Indemnitee,
if the Indemnitee undertakes in writing to repay any such advances in the event
that it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification under the terms of this Agreement or applicable law.

        5.6 SET-OFF. In addition to any rights of set off or other rights
that any of the Indemnitees may have at common law, by statute or otherwise,
each Indemnitee, notwithstanding Section 5.7, shall have the right to set off
any amount that is owed by such Indemnitee to an Indemnitor against any amount
otherwise payable by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee.

        5.7 LIMITATIONS. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, except as otherwise contemplated in Section 5.6 and Section
4.17(b), no party shall have any obligation to indemnify any person entitled to
indemnity under this Section 5 or to pay damages


                                       32

Transaction Document unless the persons so entitled to indemnity or recovery
thereunder have suffered Losses in an aggregate amount attributable to all
claims and obligors in excess of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (the
"THRESHOLD"). Once the aggregate amount of Losses exceeds the Threshold, persons
entitled to recovery shall be entitled to recover the full amount of all Losses,
including any amounts which constituted the Threshold. No person shall be
entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 for Losses directly or
indirectly caused by a breach by such person of any representation, warranty,
covenant or other agreement set forth in this Agreement or any duty to the
potential Indemnitor.

        (b)  If a party hereto determines to submit a dispute for arbitration
pursuant to this Section 7.13, such party shall furnish the other party with
whom it has the dispute with a notice of arbitration as provided in the Rules
(an "ARBITRATION NOTICE") which, in addition to the items required by the Rules,
shall include a statement of the nature, with reasonable detail, of the dispute.
If a party has a counterclaim against the other party, such party shall furnish
the party with whom it has the dispute a notice of such claim as provided in the
Rules (a "NOTICE OF COUNTERCLAIM") within ten (10) days of receipt of the
Arbitration Notice, which, in addition to the items required by the Rules, shall
include a statement of the nature, with reasonable detail, of the dispute. A
copy of the Arbitration Notice shall be concurrently provided to the AAA, along
with a copy of this Agreement, and if pursuant to Section 7.11(a) one (1)
Arbitrator is to be appointed, a request to appoint the Arbitrator. A copy of
the Notice of Counterclaim shall be concurrently provided to the AAA. If the
claim set forth in the Notice of Counterclaim causes the aggregate amount in
dispute to exceed the Threshold, the Notice of Counterclaim shall so state. If
pursuant to Section 7.11(a) three (3) Arbitrators are to be appointed, within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Arbitration Notice, each party shall
select one person to act as Arbitrator and the two selected shall select a third
arbitrator within ten (10) days of their appointment. If the Arbitrators
selected by the parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator
within such time, the third arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA. Each
Arbitrator shall be a practicing attorney or a retired or former judge with at
least twenty (20) years experience with and knowledge of securities laws,
complex business transactions, and mergers and acquisitions.

        (c)  Once an Arbitrator is assigned to hear the matter, the Arbitrator
shall schedule a pre-hearing conference to reach agreement on procedural and
scheduling matters, arrange for the exchange of information, obtain stipulations
and attempt to narrow the issues.

        (d)  At the pre-hearing conference, the Arbitrator shall have the
discretion to order, to the extent the Arbitrator deems relevant and
appropriate, that each party may (i) serve a maximum of no more than twenty (20)
requests for the production of documents and one set of ten (10) interrogatories
(without subparts) upon the other parties; and (ii) depose a maximum of three
(3) witnesses. All objections are reserved for the arbitration hearing except
for objections based on privilege and proprietary or confidential information.
The response to the document demand, the documents to be produced, and the
responses to the interrogatories shall be exchanged thirty (30) days later. Each
deposition must be concluded within four (4) hours and all depositions must be
taken within thirty (30) days of the pre-hearing conference. Any party deposing
an opponent's expert must pay the expert's fee for attending the deposition. All
discovery disputes shall be decided by the Arbitrator.

        (e)  The parties must file briefs with the Arbitrator at least three
(3) days before the arbitration hearing, specifying the facts each intends to
prove and analyzing the applicable law. The parties have the right to
representation by legal counsel throughout the arbitration proceedings. The
presentation of evidence at the arbitration hearing shall be governed by the
Federal Rules of Evidence. Oral evidence given at the arbitration hearing shall
be given under oath. Any party desiring a stenographic record may secure a court
reporter to attend the arbitration proceedings. The party requesting the court
reporter must notify the other parties and the Arbitrator of the arrangement in
advance of the hearing, and must pay for the cost incurred.

        (f)  Each party may be joined as an additional party to an arbitration
involving other parties. If more than one arbitration is begun and any party
contends that two or more


                                       41
<PAGE>   47

arbitrations are substantially related and that the issues should be heard in
one proceeding, the Arbitrator selected in the first-filed of such proceedings
shall determine whether, in the interests of justice and efficiency, the
proceedings should be consolidated before that Arbitrator.

        (g)  The Arbitrator's award shall be in writing, signed by the
Arbitrator and shall contain a concise statement regarding the reasons for the
deposition of any claim.

        (h)  To the extent permissible under applicable law, the award of the
Arbitrator shall be final. It is the intent of the parties that the arbitration
provisions hereof be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

        7.14 SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. All actions or proceedings arising in
connection with this Agreement for preliminary or injunctive relief or matters
not subject to arbitration, if any, shall be tried and litigated exclusively in
the State and Federal courts located in New York, New York. The aforementioned
choice of venue is intended by the parties to be mandatory and not permissive in
nature, thereby precluding the possibility of litigation between the parties
with respect to or arising out of this Agreement in any jurisdiction other than
that specified in this paragraph. Each party hereby waives any right it may have
to assert the doctrine of forum non conveniens or similar doctrine or to object
to venue with respect to any proceeding brought in accordance with this
paragraph, and stipulates and acknowledges that it has had sufficient minimum
contacts with New York such that the State and Federal courts located in the New
York, New York shall have in personam jurisdiction over each of them for the
purpose of litigating any dispute, controversy, or proceeding brought in
accordance with this paragraph. Each party hereby authorizes and accepts service
of process sufficient for personal jurisdiction in any action against it as
contemplated by this paragraph by registered or certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, to its address for the giving of notices as set
forth in Section 7.2. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any party to
serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

        7.15 ATTORNEYS' FEES. If Buyer or any of its Affiliates, successors or
assigns brings any action, suit, counterclaim, cross-claim, appeal, arbitration,
or mediation for any relief against Brite or Seller or any of their Affiliates
successors or assigns, or if Brite or Seller or any of their Affiliates
successors or assigns brings any action, suit, counterclaim, cross-claim,
appeal, arbitration, or mediation for any relief against Buyer or any of its
Affiliates, successors or assigns, declaratory or otherwise, to enforce the
terms hereof or to declare rights hereunder (collectively, an "ACTION"), in
addition to any damages and costs which the prevailing party otherwise would be
entitled, the non-prevailing party shall pay to the prevailing party a
reasonable sum for attorneys' fees and costs (at the prevailing party's
attorneys' then-prevailing rates) incurred in bringing and prosecuting such
Action and/or enforcing any judgment, order, ruling, or award (collectively, a
"DECISION") granted therein, all of which shall be deemed to have accrued on the
commencement of such Action and shall be paid whether or not such action is
prosecuted to a Decision. Any Decision entered in such Action shall contain a
specific provision providing for the recovery of attorneys' fees and costs
incurred in enforcing such Decision.

        For the purposes of this Section, attorneys' fees shall include, without
limitation, fees incurred in the following: (1) postjudgment motions and
collection actions; (2) contempt


                                       42
<PAGE>   48

proceedings; (3) garnishment, levy and debtor and third party examinations; (4)
discovery; and (5) bankruptcy litigation.

        For purposes of this paragraph, "PREVAILING PARTY" includes, without
limitation, a party who agrees to dismiss an action on the other party's payment
of the sum allegedly due or performance of the covenants allegedly breached, or
who obtains substantially the relief sought by it. If there are multiple claims,
the prevailing party shall be determined with respect to each claim separately.
The prevailing party shall be the party who has obtained the greater relief in
connection with any particular claim, although, with respect to any claim, it
may be determined that there is no prevailing party.

        7.16 ENFORCEMENT OF THE AGREEMENT. Brite, Seller, the Company and
Buyer acknowledge that irreparable damage would occur if any of the obligations
of Brite, Seller and the Company under this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Buyer will be
entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement
by Brite, Seller or the Company and to enforce specifically the terms and
provisions hereto, this being in addition to any other remedy to which Buyer is
entitled at law or in equity.
