agreement with any account debtor relating to the amount or validity of any Account Receivable,
other than GFT Accounts Receivable which do not exceed, in the aggregate, the reserve for
uncollected accounts set forth on the GFT 2003 and GFT First Quarter Balance Sheets, as applicable.



     (n) Intellectual Property Rights. Schedule 2.02(n), attached hereto is a complete
list and description of all of GFT’s United States and foreign: (i) patents and patent

persons who have executed confidentiality agreements with GFT or are otherwise legally bound to
maintain the confidentiality thereof.



     (o) Compliance with Applicable Law.



          (i) Except as set forth in Schedule 2.02(o) or would not materially adversely affect the
business, operations, earnings, prospects or financial condition, or



-10-









 




would not subject any officer or director of GFT to civil or criminal penalties exceeding Ten
Thousand Dollars ($10,000) in the aggregate, GFT is, in the conduct of its business, in compliance
with all federal, state or local laws, statutes, ordinances, regulations and permits, including,
without limitation, agencies concerned with occupational safety, environmental protection, tax and
employment practices; and




          (ii) Except as set forth in Schedule 2.02(o), GFT has not received notice of violation of any
such rules or regulations referred to in clause (i) above, whether or not the same has been
corrected, within the last three (3) years, which would result in any liability by GFT for
penalties or damages, or any injunction or governmental order or decree.



     (p) Litigation. Except as set forth in schedule, 2.02(p), there is no action, suit,
proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Best Knowledge of GFT, threatened, which would
subject GFT to liability in an amount greater than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) in the aggregate;
there is no reasonable basis known to GFT for any such action that would result in any such effect
and that is probable of assertion; and GFT is not in default in respect of any judgment, order,
writ, injunction or decree of any court or any federal, state, local or other governmental
department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, nor does there exist any fact or
condition which with the giving of notice or the passage of time would constitute such a default,

state or local governmental or regulatory bodies required for it to conduct its business as

and effect and, to the Best Knowledge of GFT, no suspension or cancellation of any of them is
threatened. None of such permits, licenses, orders or approvals will be materially adversely
affected by the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Merger.



     (r) Restrictive Covenants. GFT is not a party to any agreement, contract or covenant
limiting the freedom of GFT from competing in any line of business or with any person or other

and reports with respect to federal, state and local income taxes, federal and state employment and

Insurance Contributions Act contributions, franchise, license, gross receipts, room tax and other
similar returns and reports; such returns are correct and complete in all material respects, and
GFT has paid all taxes and duties (and all interest and penalties with respect thereto) shown to be
due thereby. All of such tax returns are, to the best knowledge of GFT, true and correct as filed,

or is



-11-









 




reasonably expected to cause a material, adverse change in the financial condition of GFT.




     (t) Accuracy of Information. No statement by GFT contained in this Agreement, or in
any Exhibit or Schedule attached hereto, and no statement contained in any certificate furnished or
to be furnished by or on behalf of GFT to Boulevard pursuant hereto, or in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby, contains any untrue statement, or omits to state, any material
fact.

undertaking, or incur any liability or obligation, other than as contemplated by or in furtherance
of this Agreement.



     (b) Proposals Made to Boulevard. Prior to the Closing Date, Boulevard (i) will not,

and (ii) will promptly advise GFT of any inquiry or proposal for the acquisition of any stock or
other securities or all or substantially all of the assets or business of Boulevard.

other communication received by, GFT subsequent to the date of this Agreement and prior to the
Closing Date, relating to a default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would
become a default, or which would cause any warranty or representation of GFT to be untrue or

GFT is a party, by which GFT, or any of its properties, is bound or to which GFT, or any of its
properties, is subject and (ii) any notice or other communication from any third party alleging
that the consent of such third party is or may be required in connection with the transactions

intact its business, organization and relationships with employees, agents, customers,
suppliers, shareholders and others having business dealings with it.




     (c) Proposals Made to GFT. Prior to the Closing Date, GFT (i) will not, directly or

     (d) Redemption of Certain Shares. GFT hereby agrees to guarantee the obligation of
Solvis to redeem, at the election of Pierce Mill Associates, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pierce
Mill”), such number of shares of Boulevard as may still be owned beneficially and of record by

distribute shares of Boulevard to its shareholders, whether through the registration thereof or
otherwise pursuant to an exemption thereof, it shall obtain from each recipient thereof an
enforceable agreement, upon which Boulevard may rely, to the effect that such recipient will not,
without the prior written consent of Boulevard (which may be given or withheld in its sole
discretion), make any sales of Boulevard stock in excess of the volume limitations to which
affiliated persons are subject pursuant to Rule 144(e).


3.04 Governmental Filings. Boulevard and GFT shall cooperate with each other in filing all

public announcements with respect to the execution of this Agreement, the Asset Purchase or the
transactions contemplated hereby, and any public announcements shall be made only at such time and
in such manner as Boulevard and GFT may mutually agree,




-13-









 







except that either party shall be free to make such public announcements as it shall reasonably
deem necessary to comply with federal or state laws and regulations.

-15-









 







satisfaction, at or before the Closing, of all of the conditions set forth in this Section 4.
Boulevard may waive any or all of such conditions in whole or in part without prior notice. No
such waiver of a condition shall, however, constitute a waiver by Boulevard of any of its other

representations, warranties or covenants made under or pursuant to this Agreement:




     (a) No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2004, no material adverse change

Section 5. INDEMNIFICATION.




5.01 Indemnification by Boulevard.




     (a) Boulevard agrees to indemnify and hold harmless GFT, its affiliates, officers, directors,
shareholders, agents and representatives (the “GFT Indemnitees”) from and against any and all
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees and expenses and any and all court costs, judgments and settlements (collectively,
“Expenses”), incurred by any such GFT Indemnitee in connection with or arising from any lawsuits or
other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative and whether brought derivatively or by
or on behalf of third parties (including governmental agencies or officials, but excluding any
lawsuit brought by a shareholder of GFT in such capacity), challenging or seeking to set aside



-17-









 




this Agreement, the Merger or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.




     (b) If a GFT Indemnitee believes that it or he has incurred any Expense, it or he shall notify
Boulevard promptly in writing describing such Expense and the underlying cause thereof, the amount
thereof, if known, and the method of computation of such Expense, all with reasonable
particularity.



     (c) If any action at law or suit in equity or other legal proceeding is instituted, GFT shall
promptly notify Boulevard, in writing, of the institution or assertion thereof; but the omission to
so notify Boulevard shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to GFT unless
Boulevard is actually prejudiced by such failure to notify. Boulevard shall be entitled to
participate therein and, if it so elects, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to GFT provided that, if GFT reasonably believes that it has defenses to such claim,
action, suit or proceeding that are different from or additional to those available to Boulevard or
if GFT otherwise reasonably believes that its interests in such claim, action, suit or proceeding
conflict with the interests of Boulevard and cannot be adequately presented by such counsel, GFT
may select one counsel reasonably satisfactory to Boulevard (whose reasonable fees and expenses
shall be paid by Boulevard) to participate in the defense of such claim, action, suit or proceeding
in cooperation with counsel for Boulevard.



     (d) No GFT Indemnitee shall settle or compromise any claim, action, suit or proceeding without
the prior written consent of Boulevard, unless the provisions of this Section 5.01 are waived in
writing by GFT with respect to such matter.



5.02 Indemnification by GFT.




     (a) GFT agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Boulevard, its affiliates, officers, directors,
shareholders, agent and representatives (the “Boulevard Indemnitees”) from and against any and all
Expenses (as hereinabove defined), incurred by the Boulevard Indemnitees in connection with or
arising from any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative and
whether brought derivatively or by or on behalf of third parties (including governmental agencies
or officials, but excluding any lawsuit brought by a shareholder of Boulevard in such capacity),
challenging or seeking to set aside this Agreement, the Merger or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.



     (b) If a Boulevard Indemnitee believes that it or he has incurred any Expense, it or he shall
notify GFT promptly in writing describing such Expense and the underlying cause thereof, the amount
thereof, if known, and the method of computation of such Expense, all with reasonable
particularity.



     (c) If any action at law or suit in equity or other legal proceeding is instituted, Boulevard
shall promptly notify GFT, in writing, of the institution or assertion thereof; but the omission to
so notify GFT shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have



-18-









 




to Boulevard unless GFT is actually prejudiced by such failure to notify. GFT shall be
entitled to participate therein and, if it so elects, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Boulevard provided that, if Boulevard reasonably believes that it has
defenses to such claim, action, suit or proceeding that are different from or additional to those
available to GFT or if Boulevard otherwise reasonably believes that its interests in such claim,
action, suit or proceeding conflict with the interests of GFT and cannot be adequately presented by
such counsel, Boulevard may select one counsel reasonably satisfactory to GFT (whose reasonable
fees and expenses shall be paid by GFT) to participate in the defense of such claim, action, suit
or proceeding in cooperation with counsel for GFT.




     (d) No Boulevard Indemnitee shall settle or compromise any claim, action, suit or proceeding
without the prior written consent of GFT, unless the provisions of this Section 5.02 are waived in
writing by GFT with respect to such matter.


5.03 Coordination of Legal Defense. In the event that any party may become the subject of
any litigation or other proceeding as a result of any of the foregoing items for which it may be
entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.01 or 5.02 hereof, the party so
entitled to indemnification shall have the right to coordinate its own defense and legal
representation, and the indemnifying party shall pay all costs incurred in connection therewith,
and shall otherwise use its best efforts to cooperate with the party being indemnified and its
counsel in defending against such litigation or proceeding.




Section 6. REMEDIES FOR BREACH OF AGREEMENT.



6.01 Default; Remedies. This Section shall apply in the event that a party hereto refuses
to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or if any default under, or breach of
any representation, warranty, covenant or condition of, this Agreement on the part of a party
hereto shall have occurred that results in the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby. In each such event, the non-refusing and/or non-Defaulting Party shall be entitled to seek
and obtain money damages from the Defaulting Party plus its court costs and reasonable attorneys’
fees in connection with the pursuit of its remedies thereunder.




Section 7. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance hereof, including, without

inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors, heirs and permitted
assigns.

or reveal to any person, directly or indirectly, any confidential or proprietary information
relating to the customers, business practices and policies, operations, financial condition,
prospects or any other aspect of GFT’s Business, which confidential or proprietary information is
hereby acknowledged by GFT to constitute a portion of the Acquired Assets being purchased
hereunder.



7.05 Brokers. Each party represents and warrants to the others that it has dealt with no
broker or finder in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and,
insofar as each party knows, no broker, finder or other person is entitled to any brokerage
commission or finder’s fee in connection with any of such transactions. Each party agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the other parties from and against any claim of brokerage fees,
commissions or other remuneration resulting from any action taken by the indemnifying party
hereunder.



7.06 Modifications, Waivers, Agreement. The Parties hereto, by mutual agreement in
writing approved by their respective Board of Directors, or their respective officers authorized by
their respective Boards of Directors, may amend, modify and supplement this Agreement in any
respect. An Agreement by the parties to extend the Closing Date pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof,
or a waiver by a party of any condition to such party’s obligations hereunder, shall be exercised
on behalf of such party by its Board of Directors or its officers authorized by its Board of
