          ----------------------------                               
Stockholder in respect of, and hold such Stockholder harmless against any and
all Damages arising out of or related to each and all of the following:

     (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made
by the Buyer in this Agreement;

     (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Buyer
contained in this Agreement, or any other agreement, instrument or document
contemplated by this Agreement; and

     (c) any claim (including, without limitation, warranty and product
liability claims), suit, action, arbitration proceeding, investigation or other
similar matter which relates to (i) products manufactured or sold by the Company
after the Closing Date or (ii) the business or operations of the Company
following the Closing Date.

     6.3. Claims for Indemnification. Whenever any claim shall arise for
          --------------------------                                    
indemnification under this CLAUSE SIXTH, the party seeking indemnification (the
"Indemnified Party"), shall promptly notify the party from whom indemnification
is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") of the claim and, when known, the facts
constituting the basis for such claim; provided, however, that Stockholder shall
                                       --------  -------                        
have no obligation to indemnify Company and/or Buyer and/or hold Company and/or
Buyer harmless from any Damages or claim asserted at a time beyond the time
limitation period imposed by paragraph 6.6., below. In the event of any such
claim for indemnification hereunder resulting from or in connection with any
claim or legal proceeding by a third party, the notice shall specify, if known,
the amount or an estimate of the amount of the liability arising therefrom.
Except as provided in Clause 6.4(d), the Indemnified Party shall not settle or
compromise any claim by a third party for which it is entitled to
indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however,
                                                             --------  ------- 
that if suit shall have been instituted against an Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party shall not have taken control of such suit as provided in
Clause 6.4 of this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
settle or compromise such claim without the Indemnifying Party's consent.

     6.4. Defense by the Indemnifying Party. (a) Subject to Clause 6.4(d), in
          ---------------------------------                                  
connection with any claim for indemnification hereunder resulting from or
arising out of any claim or legal proceeding by a third party, the Indemnifying
Party, at his or its sole cost and expense, may, upon written notice to the
Indemnified Party, assume the defense of any such claim or legal proceeding if
(i) the Indemnifying Party acknowledges to the Indemnified Party in writing the
obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify the Indemnified Party with
respect to all elements of such claim, (ii) the third party seeks monetary
damages only and (iii) an adverse resolution of the third party's claim would
not have a material adverse effect on the goodwill or reputation of the
Indemnified Party.

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
     (b) If the Indemnifying Party so assumes the defense of any such claim or
legal proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall select counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Indemnified Party to conduct the defense of such claim or
legal proceeding and, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party,
shall take all steps necessary in the defense or settlement thereof.  The
Indemnifying Party shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any
judgment arising from, any such claim or legal proceeding that (i) involves any
non-monetary judgement affecting the Indemnified Party or (ii) does not involve
the delivery of a general release in favor of the Indemnified Party, without the
prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to
participate in (but not control) the defense of any such action, with its own
counsel and at its own expense (except that the Indemnifying Party will be
responsible for the fees and expenses of the separate co-counsel to the extent
the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the counsel the Indemnifying
Party has selected has a conflict of interest).

     (c) If the Indemnifying Party does not (or is not permitted under the terms
hereof to) assume the defense of any such claim or litigation resulting
therefrom as provided in this Clause 6.4 within 15 days after the date that the
Indemnified Party has given notice of the claim to the Indemnifying Party:  (i)
the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim or litigation in such manner
as he or it may deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, settling such
claim or litigation on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate;
and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not
control) the defense of such action, with his or its counsel and at his or its
own expense.

     6.5. Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Subject to the express liability
          -------------------------------                                  
limitation set forth in Clause 6.8., below, to the extent that any
indemnification claim under this Clause SIXTH may be satisfied by payments to
Buyer (excluding Stockholder's defense of claims, as provided in Section 6.4),
they may be satisfied in whole or in part by delivering one or more of the
following, in such amounts or equivalent value required to pay the costs for
such indemnity claim:

     (i)   cash; and/or

     (ii)  a written instrument of accord satisfaction for the cancellation of
     all or part of the outstanding principle amount and accrued interest of one
     or more of the Notes; and/or

     (iii) the endorsement and transfer of all or portion of the shares of
     Buyer's stock received by Stockholder as provided in Clause 1.3 (b) (iii)
     above. The number of the shares of Buyer's stock to be so transferred shall
     be based on the book value of those shares at the end of the Buyer's most
     recent fiscal year ended, as determined in accordance with GAAP as then in
     effect and as shown on the audited balance sheet of the Buyer for the last
     day of the most recent audited fiscal period.

                                       20
<PAGE>
 
     To the extent that the transactions under subclauses (ii) and (iii) above
are insufficient to satisfy Buyer's indemnity claim, the balance shall be paid
by the Stockholder in cash, or such other form as may be acceptable by written
agreement with the Buyer.

     6.6. Survival. All general representations and warranties and all
          --------                                                    
covenants, agreements and obligations made by the Stockholder in this Agreement,
or in any instrument or document furnished in connection with this Agreement or
the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, any
obligation of Stockholder under this CLAUSE SIXTH to indemnify Buyer and/or
Company and/or hold Buyer and/or Company harmless, shall survive for a period of
2 (two) years after the Closing Date, except (i) for those representations and
warranties, covenants, agreements and obligations made by the Stockholder in
this Agreement, or in any instrument or document furnished in connection with
this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby that refer to title to
the assets of the Company and ownership of the Shares, which will survive for a
period of 5 (five) years counted from Closing Date, and except (ii) for those
representations and warranties, covenants, agreements and obligations made by
the Stockholder in this Agreement, or in any instrument or document furnished in
connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby referring
to Taxes and personal injuries arising out of product liability claims, which
shall expire and terminate upon the applicable statute of limitations. Any
claims asserted in writing prior to the expiration of the representation,
warranty or agreement that is the basis for such claim, if any, as provided in
this Clause 6.6, shall survive until finally resolved and satisfied in full.

     6.7. Remedies. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer
          --------                                                              
shall not be entitled to any reduction in the Purchase Price, setoff any amount
against the principal balance of the Notes, or to damages for breach of any
representation and warranty or for any claim for indemnity under this CLAUSE
SIXTH, unless and until the aggregate amount of claims by Buyer exceeds the sum
of USD$100,000.00 (One Hundred Thousand Dollars legal currency of the United
States of America).

     Except for Seller's obligation to indemnify Buyer and/or Company for any
claim of Damages derived from Taxes payable by Seller or the Company in
connection with this agreement and the subject matter hereof, and/or Seller's
liability for any breach of the written representations and warranties of Seller
relating to Taxes, which indemnification obligation will not be subject to any
limitation, in no other event shall Seller's obligations to indemnify Buyer
and/or Company, or Seller's liability for any breach of the written
representations and warranties of Seller under this Agreement, or in any
instrument or document furnished in connection with this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby, exceed the Purchase Price.

     6.8. Limited Indemnity Obligation. In no event shall Stockholder be liable
          ----------------------------                                         
for any consequential damages, opportunity costs or lost profits incurred or
suffered by Buyer and/or Company.

documents shall have become public knowledge or independently obtained by
Seller, other than through a breach of this Agreement by the Stockholder or
their respective Affiliates and agents.

for the Shares, the Stockholder will receive certain shares of common stock of
Aerovox, Inc., as described in Clause 1.3. (b) (iii) above, which are subject to
the terms and conditions and certain transfer restrictions provided for in the
Stockholders Agreement. The Stockholder agrees, because of such consideration,

equitable right of defense or claim extrinsic to the ones derived from this
Agreement or derived from this Agreement, in accordance to the Civil Code for
the Federal District of Mexico (Codigo Civil para el Distrito Federal), and the

entered in and enforced by any court having jurisdiction thereover and shall be
final and binding upon the Parties.

no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party.  Any
reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall be
deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless
the context requires otherwise.

     8.15. Currency. All amounts set forth in this Agreement are in United
           --------                                                       
States Dollars.  To the extent that conversion of other currencies into U.S.
