each  have  complete  and  unrestricted  power  to  enter  into  and,  upon  the
appropriate  approvals  as  required  by law,  to  consummate  the  transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

Incorporation or Bylaws of CCI, or of any material  provisions of any indenture,
mortgage,  deed of trust or other material  agreement or instrument to which CCI
is a party or by which it or any of its material properties or assets are bound,
or of any  material  provision of any law,  statute,  rule,  regulation,  or any

hereafter.

4.2 The right to indemnification, payment of Damages (as defined in section 4.5)
or other remedy based on any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of
a party  hereunder  shall not be affected by any  investigation  conducted  with
respect to, or any  knowledge  acquired  (or capable of being  acquired)  at any

respect  to  the  accuracy  or  inaccuracy  of  or  compliance  with,  any  such
representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.

indemnification,   payment  of   Damages,   or  other   remedy   based  on  such
representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.

4.4 CCI and the Seller, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless

connection with:

(a)           any  representation or warranty made by the Seller and CCI in this
              agreement or any of the Seller' and CCI closing  deliveries,  that
              is, or was at the time made,  false or  inaccurate,  or any breach

4.5 The Seller and CCI shall have no liability for indemnification  with respect
to any representation or warranty,  unless, on or before the [third] anniversary
of the date  hereof,  the Buyer  notifies the Seller of a claim  specifying  the
basis  thereof in  reasonable  detail to the extent  then known by the Buyer.  A
claim with respect to any covenant,  agreement or  obligation  contained in this
agreement, may be made at any time without any time limitation.

4.6  Promptly  after  receipt by an  indemnified  party of written  notice  (the
"Notice of Claim") of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against
it, or written threat thereof,  such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be
made against an indemnifying party under either of said sections, as applicable,
give notice to the indemnifying  party of the commencement of such action,  suit
or proceeding.  The indemnified party shall furnish to the indemnifying party in
reasonable  detail  such  information  as the  indemnified  party  may have with
respect  to  such  indemnification  claims  (including  copies  of any  summons,
complaint  or other  pleading  which may have been  served on it and any written
claim,  demand,  invoice,  billing or other document evidencing or assenting the
same). Subject to the limitations set forth in this section, no failure or delay
by the  indemnified  party in the  performance of the foregoing  shall reduce or
otherwise affect the obligation of the indemnifying  party to indemnify and hold
the  indemnified  party harmless except to the extent that such failure or delay
shall have materially and adversely affected the indemnifying party's ability to
defend against,  settle or satisfy any action,  suit or proceeding the claim for
which the  indemnified  party is  entitled  to  indemnification  hereunder.  The
foregoing  shall not apply to the extent  inconsistent  with the  provisions  of
section 4.8 relating to Proceedings.

4.7 If the  claim or  demand  set  forth  in the  Notice  of Claim  given by the
indemnified  party  is a  claim  or  demand  asserted  by  a  third  party,  the
indemnifying  party  shall  have 30 days  after  the Date of  Notice of Claim to
notify the  indemnified  party in writing of its  election  to defend such third
party claim or demand on BEHALF OF THE INDEMNIFIED  PARTY (THE "NOTICE PERIOD");
PROVIDED,  HOWEVER, that the indemnified party is authorized to file any motion,
answer or other pleading which it deems  necessary or appropriate to protect its
interests during the Notice Period.  If the indemnifying  party elects to defend
such third party claim or demand,  the indemnified party shall make available to
the indemnifying party and its agents and  representatives all records and other
materials which are reasonably required in the defense of such third party claim
or demand and shall  otherwise  cooperate  (at the sole cost and  expense of the
indemnifying  party)  with,  and  assist  (at the sole cost and  expense  of the
indemnifying  party) the indemnifying  party in the defense of, such third party
claim or demand, and so long as the indemnifying  party is diligently  defending
such third  party  claim in good  faith,  the  indemnified  party shall not pay,
settle or compromise such third party claim or demand. If the indemnifying party
elects to defend such third party claim or demand,  the indemnified  party shall
have the right to control the  defense of such third  party claim or demand,  at
the indemnified party's own expense. If the indemnifying party does not elect to
defend  such third  party  claim or demand or does not defend  such third  party
claim or demand in good faith,  the  indemnified  party shall have the right, in
addition to any other right or remedy it may have hereunder at the  indemnifying
party's expense, to defend such third party claim or demand.

4.8 The term  "Date of Notice of Claim"  shall mean the date the Notice of Claim
is effective pursuant to section 5.5 of this Agreement.

4.9 A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim
may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.

4.10 Any legal  action or  proceeding  with  respect  to this  Agreement  or any
matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the  transactions
contemplated  hereby or the  documents  executed  and  delivered  in  connection
herewith,  and any action for enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof may
be brought  in the  courts of the State of New York or of the  United  States of
America for the Southern District of New York, and, by execution and delivery of
this Agreement, the parties each hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its
property,  generally  and  unconditionally,  the  jurisdiction  of the aforesaid
courts and appellate courts thereof.  The parties irrevocably consent to service
of  process  out of any of the  aforementioned  courts  in any  such  action  or
proceeding in accordance  with the notice  provisions  set forth in Section 5.5.
The  parties  each hereby  irrevocably  waive any  objection  that it may now or
hereafter  have to the  laying  of  venue  of any of the  aforesaid  actions  or
proceedings  arising  out  of  or in  connection  with  this  Agreement  or  the
transactions  contemplated  hereby or the  documents  execute and  delivered  in
connection  herewith  brought in the courts referred to above and hereby further
irrevocably  waive and agree, to the extent  permitted by applicable law, not to
plead or claim in any such court that any such action or  proceeding  brought in
any such court has been brought in an inconvenient  forum.  Nothing herein shall
affect  the  right of any  party  hereto to serve  process  in any other  manner
permitted by law.
