     Except as set forth on SCHEDULE 5.11 of the Disclosure Memorandum, all such
Contracts are valid and in full force and effect and are enforceable against

accordance with their respective terms, except, in each such case, as such
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium, and other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors' rights
generally and by equitable principles. Seller has performed in all material
respects the obligations required to be performed by it under all such
Contracts, and no material breach or default by Seller of any provision thereof,


                                       20

<PAGE>

nor any condition or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would
constitute such a breach or default, has occurred. Further, to Seller's
Knowledge, no material breach or default by any other party to any such Contract
of any provision thereof, nor any condition or event that, with notice or lapse
of time or both, would constitute such a breach or default, has occurred. Except

assignment of any such Contract to Buyer. Seller has no reason to believe that
any obligations that remain to be performed by Seller under any such Contract
cannot be fulfilled. To Seller's Knowledge, no such Contract, together with all
other such Contracts, will likely result in a Material Adverse Effect, and there
is no material dispute with any party under any such Contract.

Memorandum and except for Employee Confidentiality and Non-Competition
Agreements with respect to former TDS employees, Seller has delivered to Buyer
or made available in the Seller's electronic data room, true, correct and

     (b) Except as set forth on SCHEDULE 5.14(B), neither the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, nor the

Transaction Documents shall: (i) constitute a breach of or default under any
instrument, license or other agreement governing Seller IP Rights; (ii) cause
the forfeiture or termination of, or give rise to a right of forfeiture or
termination of, any Seller IP Right; or (iii) impair the right of the Buyer, as

Memorandum, there are no royalties, honoraria, fees or other payments payable by
the Seller to any third person (other than salaries payable to employees and
independent contractors not contingent on or related to use of their work
product, and ordinary course payments due to any governmental authorities in
order to maintain any registrations of Intellectual Property Rights) as a result

disposition of any Seller IP Rights by the Seller to the extent necessary for
the conduct of the Business or the use, sale, licensing or distribution of the
Products, and none shall become payable by Seller, or by Buyer as

violate any license or other Contract between Seller and any third party, or

Intellectual Property right of any other party. There is no pending or, to the
Knowledge of the Seller, threatened claim or litigation made or brought against
Seller contesting the validity, ownership or right of the Seller to exercise any
Seller IP Right, nor to the Knowledge of Seller is there any legitimate basis
for any such claim, nor has


                                       23

<PAGE>

use, sale, license or disposition thereof conflicts with or infringes or shall
conflict with or infringe the rights of any other Person, nor is there any
legitimate basis for any such assertion. The Seller has not received any notice
from any third party with regard to any Seller IP Right offering a license under

such Persons or that Seller would not already own by operation of Law. No

subsisting, and the Seller is the record owner thereof. The Seller is the

occurred, and no circumstance or condition exists, that (with or without notice
or lapse of time, or both) shall, or would reasonably be expected to, result in
the disclosure or delivery by the Seller or any Person acting on its behalf to
any other Party of any Seller Source Code. SCHEDULE 5.14(I) of the Disclosure
Memorandum identifies each Contract (whether written or oral) pursuant to which
the Seller has deposited, or is or may be required to deposit, with an escrow
agent or other party, any Seller Source Code and further describes whether the

liability for breach of applicable contractual commitments, express and implied
warranties and


                                       26

     7.2  ASSIGNMENT OF CONTRACTS

     If any Contract constituting any of the Assets is not assignable by Seller
to Buyer without the consent of a third party, or will not continue in effect
after the Closing, then Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
provide Buyer with such third-party consent prior to the Closing Date to the
satisfaction of Buyer (but if Seller's assignment or attempted assignment of any
such Contract prior to obtaining the third-party consent would constitute a
breach of such Contract, then such assignment or attempted assignment shall not
be or be deemed effective unless and until the third-party consent is obtained).
For any licenses associated with the Contracts listed on Part A of SCHEDULE
ANNEX 5.14(E) of the Disclosure Memorandum for which consent is not obtained
prior to the Closing, Seller shall, at Seller's expense, use commercially
reasonable efforts to provide Buyer with such third-party consents as soon as

Seller and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate so that Buyer shall enjoy the
benefits and rights of Seller under any such Contract and Buyer shall be
responsible for the obligations arising thereunder after the date hereof
pursuant to the express terms of such Contract in the ordinary course of
business; provided, however, that, with respect to the licenses associated with
each Contract listed on Part A of SCHEDULE ANNEX 5.14(E) of the Disclosure
Memorandum, if, prior to (a) Seller's obtaining the related consent for
assignment of such Contract to Buyer and (b) assignment of such Contract to
Buyer, Seller fails to provide to Buyer the benefits and rights of Seller under
such Contract (as such benefits and rights are determined prior to the Closing),
Seller shall, to extent such license is still required for purposes of the
Business, promptly pay to Buyer the amount indicated in Part A of SCHEDULE ANNEX
5.14(E) of the Disclosure Memorandum as the estimated per copy license fee
applicable to such Contract for each copy licensed by Seller immediately prior
to the Closing. Seller agrees to be solely responsible for any other obligations
or liabilities arising under or related to such Contract prior to receipt of
such consent.

     7.3  CONDUCT OF BUSINESS PRIOR TO CLOSING

     Except for actions taken with the prior written consent of Buyer, from the
date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, Seller shall conduct the Business
in the ordinary course consistent with Seller's past practice, Seller shall not
take or permit to exist any action or condition specified in Sections 5.6(a)
through 5.6(k), and Seller shall:

     (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the Business intact, to
market, promote, sell and distribute the Products of the Business consistently
with Seller's past practice, and to preserve the goodwill of the Business and
present relationships with the

Property and continue to prosecute and maintain all pending applications
therefor in all jurisdictions in which such applications are pending;

conduct of the Business or the ownership or operation of the Assets or the
Facilities, and maintain and prosecute applications for such Permits and pay all
Taxes, assessments and other charges applicable thereto;

     (f) promptly advise Buyer in writing of the occurrence of any Material
Adverse Effect or of any change, condition or event that could reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

     (g) not take any action, or omit to take any action, that would result in
any of Seller's representations and warranties made herein being materially
inaccurate at the time of such action or omission as if made at and as of such
time;

     (h) give notice to Buyer promptly upon becoming aware of any material
inaccuracy of any of Seller's representations or warranties made herein or in
the Disclosure Memorandum or of any event or state of facts that would result in
any such representation or warranty being materially inaccurate at the time of
such event or state of facts as if made at and as of such time (any such notice
to describe such material inaccuracy, event or state of facts in reasonable
detail);

     (i) not solicit, approach or furnish information to any prospective buyer,
or negotiate with any third party concerning the sale or transfer of any of the
Assets, the Business or any part thereof, whether any of such actions are taken
directly or indirectly, through a director, officer, employee or other
representative or otherwise; and

     (j) immediately notify Buyer regarding any contact between Seller or any of
its directors, officers, employees or any other representative and any other
Person or any offer, proposal or inquiry regarding any sale or transfer
described in Section 7.3(i).

or Vesta Corporation will offer employment on an "at-will" basis to those
employees of Seller set forth on SCHEDULE 7.4 (which Schedule Buyer shall
provide to Seller prior to or at the Closing) (the "OFFEREE EMPLOYEES"), with
such employment to become effective immediately after the Closing, unless
otherwise set forth on SCHEDULE 7.4. Seller shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to assist Buyer and Vesta Corporation in their efforts to hire the
Offeree Employees and, prior to the Closing, shall release those employees who
accept employment with Buyer or Vesta Corporation from their obligations under
any non-competition or confidentiality agreement in favor of Seller, to the
extent necessary to allow them to be employed by Buyer or Vesta Corporation.

Corporation to continue after the Closing Date (i) the employment of any
employee of Seller employed by Buyer or Vesta Corporation after the Closing or
(ii) the salary or benefits paid or provided to any such employee.

Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9, Q&A-3(a)) of which it is a part (the
"SELLING GROUP") will continue to offer a group health plan to employees after
the Closing Date and, accordingly, that Seller and the Selling Group will be
solely responsible for providing continuation coverage in accordance with
Section 4980B(f) of the Code ("COBRA"), to those individuals who are M&A
qualified beneficiaries (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9,
Q&A-4(a)) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
(collectively, the "M&A QUALIFIED BENEFICIARIES"). Seller and the Selling Group
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and the buying group (as defined
in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9, Q&A-3(b)) for, from and against any
and all Losses relating to, arising out of, or resulting from any and all COBRA
obligations, liabilities and claims related to M&A Qualified Beneficiaries.
Seller and the Selling Group further agree and acknowledge that in the event
that the Selling Group ceases to provide any group health plan to any employee
prior to the expiration of the continuation coverage period for all M&A
Qualified Beneficiaries (pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9,
Q&A-8(c)), then Seller or a member of the Selling Group shall provide Buyer with
(i) written notice of such cessation as far in advance of such cessation as is
reasonably practicable (and in any event, at least thirty (30) days prior to
such cessation), and (ii) all information necessary or appropriate to enable
Buyer to offer continuation coverage to such M&A Qualified Beneficiaries if
Buyer determines it is legally obligated to do so.

covenants and agrees as follows:

     (a) During the three-year period commencing on the Closing Date, Seller

Person or any of its Affiliates from making any further acquisitions in the
Restricted Activities after the consummation of such acquisition.

     (b) During the three-year period commencing on the Closing Date, Seller

under this Agreement and to assure that the parties receive the benefits

     Neither party or its Affiliates shall be entitled to receive any
indemnification payment with respect to Claims for indemnification made under
Section 13.2(a) or Sections 13.3(a), as the case may be, until the aggregate
Losses that such party and its Affiliates would be otherwise entitled to receive
indemnification for with respect to such Claims under all such relevant Sections
exceed $50,000 (the "THRESHOLD"); provided, however, that once such aggregate
Losses exceed the Threshold, such party and its Affiliates shall be entitled to
receive indemnification payment for the aggregate Losses that they would be
entitled to receive without regard to the Threshold; and, provided further, that
Buyer or any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to indemnification for all
Losses arising in connection with Sections 5.2 (Corporate Authority), 5.7
(Taxes) and 5.8(b) (Property; Assets), or 5.22 (Brokerage) or based upon a claim
of fraud, in each case without regard to the Threshold, and Seller or any of its
Affiliates shall be entitled to indemnification for all Losses arising in
connection with Section 6.5 (Brokerage) or based upon a claim for fraud without
regard to the Threshold. Furthermore, neither party or its Affiliates shall be
entitled to assert any right of indemnification with respect to any Claim under
Section 13.2 or 13.3, as the case may be, of which neither such party or its
Affiliates have given written notice to the other party on or prior to the end
of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 13.1 above, except that
if such party or its Affiliates have given written notice of any such Claim to
the other party on or prior to the end of such survival period, then they shall
continue to have the right to be indemnified with respect to such pending Claim,
notwithstanding the expiration of such survival period. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary, except for Claims based upon fraud, the aggregate
indemnification obligation of Seller under this Section 13 shall not exceed the
Purchase Price.

     13.5 PROCEDURE

     (a) Any party hereto or any of its Affiliates seeking indemnification
hereunder (in this context, the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall notify the other
party (in this context, the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing reasonably promptly
after the assertion against the indemnified party of any Claim by a third party
(a "THIRD-PARTY CLAIM") in respect of which


                                       47

<PAGE>

the indemnified party intends to base a Claim for indemnification hereunder, but
the failure or delay so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the
indemnifying party of any obligation or liability it may have to the indemnified
party except to the extent, and only to the extent, that the indemnifying party
demonstrates that its ability to defend or resolve such Third Party Claim is
adversely affected thereby.

     (b) (i) Subject to the provisions of Section 13.5(c) below, the
indemnifying party shall have the right, upon written notice given to the
indemnified party within 30 days after receipt of the notice from the
indemnified party of any Third Party Claim, to assume the defense or handling of
such Third Party Claim, at the indemnifying party's sole expense, in which case
the provisions of Section 13.5(b)(ii) below shall govern.

          (ii) The indemnifying party shall select counsel reasonably acceptable
to the indemnified party in connection with conducting the defense or handling
of such Third Party Claim, and the indemnifying party shall defend or handle the
same in consultation with the indemnified party, and shall keep the indemnified
party timely apprised of the status of such Third Party Claim. The indemnifying
party shall not consent to any settlement or to the entry of any judgment with
respect to any Third Party Claim which does not include a complete release of
the indemnified party from all liability with respect thereto or which imposes
any liability or obligation on the indemnified party without the prior written
consent of the indemnified party The indemnified party shall cooperate with the
indemnifying party and shall be entitled to participate in the defense or
handling of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the indemnifying party fails to
conduct the defense or handling of any Third Party Claim in good faith after
having assumed such defense or handling, then the provisions of Section
13(c)(ii) below shall govern.

     (c) (i) If the indemnifying party does not give written notice to the
indemnified party, within 30 days after receipt of the notice from the
indemnified party of any Third Party Claim, of the indemnifying party's election
to assume the defense or handling of such Third Party Claim, the provisions of
Section 13(c)(ii) below shall govern.

          (ii) The indemnified party may, at the indemnifying party's expense,
select counsel in connection with conducting the defense or handling of such
Third Party Claim and defend and handle such Third Party Claim in such manner as
it may deem appropriate, provided, however, that the indemnified party shall
keep the indemnifying party timely apprised of the status of such Third Party
Claim and shall not settle such Third Party Claim without the prior written
consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. If the indemnified party defends or handles such Third Party Claim,
the indemnifying party shall cooperate with the indemnified party and shall be
entitled to participate in the defense or handling of such Third Party Claim
with its own counsel and at its own expense.


                                       48

<PAGE>

     (d) If the indemnified party intends to seek indemnification hereunder,
other than for a Third Party Claim, then it shall notify the indemnifying party
in writing within 90 days after its discovery of facts upon which it intends to
base its Claim for indemnification hereunder, but the failure or delay so to
notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party of any
obligation or liability that the indemnifying party may have to the indemnified
party except to the extent, and only to the extent, that the indemnifying party
demonstrates that the indemnifying party's ability to defend or resolve such
Claim is adversely affected thereby.

     (e) The indemnified party may notify the indemnifying party with respect to
a Claim even though the amount thereof plus the amount of other Claims
previously notified by the indemnified party aggregate less than the Threshold.

     13.6 EXCLUSIVE REMEDY

to elect the provision or provisions under which it may bring a claim for
indemnification.

     15.6 ASSIGNMENT

     Neither Seller nor Buyer may assign any of its rights or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Buyer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement
to any Affiliate of Buyer, and furthermore Buyer may assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to any successor of Buyer in the conduct of the Business
after the Closing; provided, however, that any such assignment by Buyer shall
not relieve Buyer from its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective
successors and permitted assigns. Seller shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause any acquirer of substantially all its assets to agree to be
bound by its obligations hereunder as a condition to such acquisition. To the
extent such acquirer does not agree to be bound by Seller's obligations under
this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to provide
assurance to Buyer that those obligations will be satisfied.

the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements, understandings, negotiations, representations and statements,
whether oral, written, implied or expressed, relating to such subject matter.

     15.9 NO THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS

     Nothing in this Agreement is intended, nor shall be construed, to confer
upon any Person other than Buyer and Seller (and, to the extent expressly
provided herein, their respective Affiliates) any right or remedy under or by
reason of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents.

     15.10 COUNTERPARTS

     This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile
transmission) in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be
