         SECTION 5.20 VALIDITY OF CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS. Neither the
execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Related Agreements by the
Company nor the consummation by the Company of the transactions provided for
herein or therein will conflict with, violate, or result in a breach, default or

business, operations, financial condition or prospects. Any suppliers and
vendors that are material to the operations of the Company or its affiliates

the consummation by Able

                                       23

of the transactions provided for herein or therein will conflict with, violate,

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                 INDEMNIFICATION

         SECTION 8.1 INDEMNIFICATION.

         (a) The Shareholders shall indemnify and hold harmless Able and its
officers, directors, employees, shareholders, representatives and agents, from
and against any claims, damages, losses, Liabilities, Taxes, injuries to
Persons, property or natural resources, fines, penalties, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, settlement costs, any reasonable legal,
accounting or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or
defending any actions or Threatened actions and court costs) (a "LOSS" or
"LOSSES") sustained or required to be paid by reason of, arising out of or
caused by (i) any misrepresentation or Breach of any representation or warranty
made by the Company or any Shareholder in this Agreement, or any Related
Agreement or other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby, (ii)
any Breach of or failure to perform any covenant, agreement or obligation of the
Company or any Shareholder contained in this Agreement, or any Related Agreement
or other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby, (iii) any
audits or examinations, including, without limitation, the reopening of past
audits, made in respect of Taxes or Plans relating to any period ending on or
prior to the Closing Date or any penalties asserted by, or

                                       24
<PAGE>

fees under voluntary compliance programs payable to, the Internal Revenue
Service or Department of Labor, including, without limitation, for failure to
file Forms 5500 on any due date for such forms occurring prior to the Closing
Date, (iv) without limiting in any way any other provision of this Section 8.1,
and whether or not disclosed in any Schedule hereto, or in any other document
related to this transaction, any act or omission occurring, or condition
existing, on or prior to the Closing Date, and relating, directly or indirectly,
to the facilities, assets, Properties, operations or businesses, owned, leased,
operated, or conducted by the Company as of the Closing Date (including, but not
limited to, the storage, generation, transport or disposal or Hazardous
Materials at any location), which Losses relate, directly or indirectly, to any
Environmental Claim as defined in Section 5.16 (including, without limitation,
Losses relating, directly or indirectly, to injury to persons, including any
current or former employee at the facilities, Properties, operations, or
businesses) or (v) without limiting any way any other provision of this Section
8.1, and whether or not disclosed in any Schedule hereto or in any other
document related to this transaction, any act or omission occurring, or
condition existing, at any time, and relating, directly or indirectly, to
Environmental Laws and to the facilities, assets, Properties, operations, or
businesses formerly owned, leased, operated, or conducted by the Company or any
predecessor (including, but not limited to, disposal of Hazardous Materials at
any location).

         (b) Able shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against
any Loss or Losses sustained or required to be paid by reason of, arising out of
or caused by (i) any misrepresentation or Breach of any representation or
warranty made by Able in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or
document contemplated hereby; or (ii) any Breach of any covenant, agreement or
obligation of Able contained in this Agreement, or any other certificate,
instrument or document contemplated hereby.

         (c) In the event that any indemnified party is made a defendant in or
party to any claim, action, suit or Proceeding, judicial or administrative,
instituted by any third party for Losses, or otherwise receives any demand from
any third party for Losses (any such third party claim, action, suit or
Proceeding being referred to as a "CLAIM"), the indemnified party (referred to
in this clause (c)(i) as the "notifying party") shall give the indemnifying
party prompt notice thereof. The failure to give such notice shall not affect
whether an indemnifying party is liable for reimbursement unless such failure
has resulted in the loss of substantive rights with respect to the indemnifying
party's ability to defend such Claim, and then only to the extent of such Loss.
The indemnifying party shall be entitled to contest and defend such Claim;
provided, that the indemnifying party (A) has a reasonable basis for concluding
that such defense may be successful, (B) diligently contests and defends such
Claim, and (C) acknowledges in writing that it is obligated to provide
indemnification with respect to such Claim. Notice of the intention so to
contest and defend shall be given by the indemnifying party to the notifying
party within 20 business days after the notifying party's notice of such Claim
(but, in all events, at least five business days prior to the date that an
answer to such

                                       25
<PAGE>

Claim is due to be filed). Such contest and defense shall be conducted by
reputable attorneys employed by the indemnifying party. The notifying party
shall be entitled at any time, at its own cost and expense (which expense shall
not constitute a Loss unless the notifying party reasonably determines that the
indemnifying party is not adequately representing or, because of a conflict of
interest, may not adequately represent, the interests of the indemnified
parties, and only to the extent that such expenses are reasonable), to
participate in such contest and defense and to be represented by attorneys of
its or their own choosing. If the notifying party elects to participate in such
defense, the notifying party will cooperate with the indemnifying party in the
conduct of such defense. Neither the notifying party nor the indemnifying party
may concede, settle or compromise any Claim without the consent of the other
party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the indemnifying party fails to acknowledge in writing its
obligation to provide indemnification in respect of such Claim, then the
notifying party alone shall be entitled to contest, defend and settle such Claim
in the first instance (in which case, expenses incurred in connection therewith
shall constitute a Loss) and, only if the notifying party chooses not to
contest, defend or settle such Claim, the indemnifying party shall then have the
right to contest and defend (but not settle) such Claim.

         (d) In the event any indemnified party should have a claim against any
indemnifying party that does not involve a Claim, including, but not limited to,
an Environmental Claim, the indemnified party shall deliver a notice of such
claim with reasonable promptness to the indemnifying party. The failure to give
such notice shall not affect whether an indemnifying party is liable for
reimbursement unless such failure has resulted in the loss of substantive rights
with respect to the indemnifying party's ability to defend such Claim, and then
only to the extent of such Loss. If the indemnifying party notifies the
indemnified party that it does not dispute the claim described in such notice or
fails to notify the indemnified party within 15 days after delivery of such
notice by the indemnified party whether the indemnifying party disputes the
claim described in such notice, the Loss in the amount specified in the
indemnified party's notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the
indemnifying party and the indemnifying party shall pay the amount of such Loss
to the indemnified party on demand.

         (e) After the Closing, the rights set forth in this Section 8.1 shall
be the indemnified parties' sole and exclusive remedies against the other for
misrepresentations or Breaches of covenants contained in this Agreement or in
any exhibit, schedule or other document delivered or to be delivered pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement or otherwise referenced or incorporated in this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent any of
the indemnified parties from bringing an action based upon allegations of fraud,
bad faith or willful misconduct in connection with this Agreement. In the event
action is brought in accordance with the preceding sentence of this clause
(iii), the prevailing party's attorneys' fees and costs shall be paid by the
nonprevailing party.

                                       26
<PAGE>

         (f) The Shareholders shall not be liable in an amount which, if added
to all other amounts paid as indemnification payments, would exceed the
Consideration, except as set forth in the next sentence. Able shall not be
entitled to pursue any indemnification claim or recovery against the Company
beyond the foregoing limit, except to the extent any such claim or recovery is
based upon Company's or the Shareholder's (i) Breach of a representation and
warranty made in Article V, or (ii) fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct in
connection with this Agreement, or (iii) arises in connection with Section
8.1(a)(vi) hereof in which case Able's remedy shall not be limited.

         (g) The obligations set forth in this Section 8.1 shall be
unconditional and absolute. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of
this Section 8.1 and any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of
Section 8.1 shall control. The Shareholders shall not have any indemnification
obligations under this Section 8.1 for Losses until such time as total Losses
for which Able is otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder equal $25,000
in the aggregate, whereafter the Shareholders shall be liable for all Losses;
provided, however, that any indemnification obligations arising in connection
with Section 8.1(a)(ii), (v) or (vi) hereof shall not be subject to such
limitation. Able shall not have any indemnification obligations under this
Section 8.1 for Losses until such time as total Losses for which the
Shareholders are otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder equal $25,000
in the aggregate, whereafter Able shall be liable for all Losses.

         (h) The indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 8.1 shall
survive any assignment or other transfer by Able.
