                           legend:

                                    shares represented by this certificate shall
                                    be made unless a registration statement

6.3      LIMITATIONS. No party shall have any Liability for indemnification
pursuant to Sections 6.1 or 6.2 unless and until the accumulated aggregate
amount of Claims of the Indemnified Party exceeds twenty thousand dollars
(US$20,000) in United States funds, following which all such accumulated
Claims and all further Claims of the Indemnified Party shall be recoverable
as provided in this Agreement.

6.4      NOTICE OF CLAIM. If an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a Claim in
respect of which indemnification is provided for pursuant to either of
Section 6.1 or 6.2, as the case may be, the Indemnified Party shall promptly
give written notice of the Claim to the Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall
specify whether the Claim arises as a result of a claim by a Person against
the Indemnified Party (a "Third Party Claim") or whether the Claim does not
so arise (a "Direct Claim"), and shall also specify with reasonable
particularity (to the extent that the information is available):

         (a)      the factual basis for the Claim; and

         (b)      the amount of the Claim, if known.

If, through the fault of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party does
not receive notice of any Claim in time effectively to contest the
determination of any liability susceptible of being contested, then the
Liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party under this
Article shall be reduced by the amount of any losses incurred by the
Indemnifying Party resulting from the Indemnified Party's failure to give
such notice on a timely basis.

6.5      DIRECT CLAIMS. In the case of a Direct Claim, the Indemnifying Party
shall have sixty (60) days from receipt of notice of the Claim within which
to make such investigation of the Claim as the Indemnifying Party considers
necessary or desirable. For the purpose of such investigation, the
Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party the

<PAGE>
                                      -28-



information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the Claim,
together with all such other information as the Indemnifying Party may
reasonably request. If both parties agree at or before the expiration of such
sixty (60) day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof) to the
validity and amount of such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall immediately
pay to the Indemnified Party the full agreed upon amount of the Claim,
failing which the matter shall be referred to binding arbitration in such
manner as the parties may agree or shall be determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction.

6.6      THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. In the case of a Third Party Claim, the
Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its expense, to participate in or
assume control of the negotiation, settlement or defence of the Claim and, in
such event, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for
all of the Indemnified Party's out-of-pocket expenses as a result of such
participation or assumption. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume such
control, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the
negotiation, settlement or defence of such Third Party Claim and to retain
counsel to act on its behalf, provided that the fees and disbursements of
such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying
Party consents to the retention of such counsel at its expense or unless the
named parties to any action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party and a representation of both the Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to
the actual or potential differing interests between them (such as the
availability of different defences). If the Indemnifying Party, having
elected to assume such control, thereafter fails to defend the Third Party
Claim within a reasonable time, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to
assume such control and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the results
obtained by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. If
any Third Party Claim is of a nature such that (i) the Indemnified Party is
required by Applicable Law or the order of any court, tribunal or regulatory
body having jurisdiction, or (ii) it is necessary in the reasonable view of
the Indemnified Party acting in good faith and in a manner consistent with
reasonable commercial practices, in respect of (A) a Third Party Claim by a
customer relating to products or services supplied by the Business or (B) a
Third Party Claim relating to any Contract which is necessary to the ongoing
operations of the Business or any material part thereof in order to avoid
material damage to the relationship between the Indemnified Party and any of
its major customers or to preserve the rights of the Indemnified Party under
such an essential Contract, to make a payment to any Person (a "Third Party")
with respect to the Third Party Claim before the completion of settlement
negotiations or related legal proceedings, as the case may be, the
Indemnified Party may make such payment and the Indemnifying Party shall,
promptly after demand by the Indemnified Party, reimburse the Indemnified
Party for such payment. If the amount of any liability of the Indemnified
Party under the Third Party Claim in respect of which such a payment was
made, as finally determined, is less than the amount which was paid by the
Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall,
promptly after receipt of the difference from the Third Party, pay the amount
of such difference to the Indemnifying Party. If such a payment, by resulting
in settlement of the Third Party Claim, precludes a final determination of
the merits of the Third Party Claim and the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party are unable to agree whether such payment was unreasonable
in the circumstances having regard to the amount and merits of the Third
Party Claim, then such

<PAGE>
                                      -29-



dispute shall be referred to and finally settled by binding arbitration from
which there shall be no appeal.

6.7      SETTLEMENT OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. If the Indemnifying Party fails to
assume control of the defence of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party
shall have the exclusive right to contest, settle or pay the amount claimed.
Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the negotiation,
settlement or defence of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall
not settle any Third Party Claim without the written consent of the
Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed; provided, however, that the liability of the Indemnifying Party
shall be limited to the proposed settlement amount if any such consent is not
obtained for any reason within a reasonable time after the request therefor.

6.8      SET-OFF. The Purchaser shall be entitled to set-off the amount of
any Claim submitted under Section 6.1 as damages or by way of indemnification
against any other amounts payable by the Purchaser to the Vendors whether
under this Agreement or otherwise.

                                    ARTICLE 7
                               DISPUTE RESOLUTION

7.1      ARBITRATION. Any dispute concerning the validity, the interpretation

pursuant to this Agreement, shall be definitively settled in accordance with
the Rules of the Cepani, by one or several arbitrators appointed in
accordance these Rules. The Arbitration Tribunal shall be composed of three
arbitrators. The place of the arbitration shall be Sint-Niklaas, Belgium.



                                    ARTICLE 8
                                     GENERAL

8.1      FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each of the parties hereto from time to time at
the request and expense of any other party hereto and without further
consideration, shall execute and deliver such other instruments of transfer,
conveyance and assignment and take such further action as the other party may
require to more effectively complete any matter provided for herein.

8.2      EXPENSES. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the
parties hereto shall bear its or his own expenses (including those of legal
counsel and advisors) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.3      ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the Schedules hereto together
with any agreements referenced herein constitute the entire agreement between
the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior
agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or
written, of the parties respecting the subject matter hereof and there are no
implied representations, warranties or conditions, statutory or otherwise,
except as expressly set forth herein. There are no oral representations or
warranties among the parties

                                      -30-



hereto of any kind. This Agreement may not be amended or modified in any
respect except by written instrument signed by all the parties hereto.

8.4      TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.

8.5      NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be effectively given if (i) delivered
personally or (ii) sent by fax or other similar means of electronic
communication, in each case to the applicable address set out on the
execution page of this Agreement. Any notice so given shall be deemed
conclusively to have been given and received when so personally delivered or
on the day of faxing or sending by other means of recorded electronic
communication, provided that such day in either event is a Business Day.

8.6      GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of Belgium.

8.7      SEVERABILITY. Any covenant or provision hereof determined to be void
or unenforceable in whole or in part shall not be deemed to affect or impair
the validity of any other covenant or provision hereof and the covenants and
provisions hereof are declared to be separate and distinct.

8.8      WAIVER. A waiver of any default, breach or non-compliance under this
Agreement is not effective unless in writing and signed by the party to be
bound by the waiver. No waiver shall be inferred from or implied by any
failure to act or delay in acting by a party in respect of any default,
breach or non-observance or by anything done or omitted to be done by the
other party. The waiver by a party of any default, breach or non-compliance
under this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of that party's rights
under this Agreement in respect of any continuing or subsequent default,
breach or non-observance (whether of the same or any other nature).

8.9      SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall not be assignable by
any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other
parties hereto and the Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

8.10     NON-MERGER. Each party hereby agrees that all provisions of this
Agreement, other than the representations and warranties contained in Article

to the special arrangements provided in such Articles or Sections), shall
survive the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the
Closing Date and the execution, delivery and performance of any and all
documents delivered in connection with this Agreement.

8.11     COUNTERPARTS AND FACSIMILE. This Agreement may be executed by the
parties in any number of separate counterparts each of which, when so
executed and delivered, shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall
together constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be executed
either in original or faxed form and the parties adopt any

manner shall promptly forward to the other party an original of the signed
copy of this Agreement which was so faxed.
