perform its or his obligations under this Agreement, and such action by Parke has been duly
authorized by all necessary action by Parke’s stockholders and board of directors.

     (b) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation or performance
of any of the transactions on the part of Parke and the Stockholder contemplated hereby (the
“Contemplated Transactions”) by Parke and the Stockholder, as applicable, will, directly or
indirectly:




     (i) breach any provision of the articles of incorporation, by-laws or other governing
document (the “Governing Documents”) of Parke or any resolution adopted by the
stockholders or directors of Parke;




     (ii) breach or conflict with any federal, state or local law (including case law),
statute, ordinance, code or regulation (collectively, “Legal Requirements”)
applicable to Parke or the Stockholder or give any governmental body or agency the right to
challenge or seek to prevent any of the Contemplated Transactions or to exercise any remedy
or obtain any relief under any Legal Requirement or under any order, injunction, judgment,
decree, ruling, assessment or arbitration award (collectively, “Orders”) to which
Parke or the Stockholder, or any of Parke’s assets, is subject; or




     (iii) contravene, conflict with or result in a violation or breach of any of the terms
or requirements of any governmental authorization, permit or license that is held by Parke
or the Stockholder.



     (c) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.2 attached hereto, neither Parke nor the
Stockholder is required to give any notice to or obtain any consent from any person or entity in
connection with its or his execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation or
performance by it or him of any of the Contemplated Transactions.



     4.3 Financial Statements; Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities.



     (a) Parke and the Stockholder have delivered to ELC and Acquisition the following financial
statements:

2005 (the “Annual Financial Statements”); and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Parke’s unaudited statements of income and cash flows for the most recently
ended calendar quarter and year-to-date, and the related unaudited balance sheet as at
the last calendar day of such calendar quarter and the then-current date (the
“Interim Financial Statements”).




All such financial statements have been prepared by Parke in accordance with its books of account
and financial records. Such financial statements present the financial condition and the results
of operations of Parke as at the respective dates thereof and for the periods referred to in such
financial statements, except that the Interim Financial Statements omit footnote disclosure and are
subject to normal year-end adjustments, and except that such financial statements have

- 6 -









 








been prepared on a tax basis and may have items that are not in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.




     (b) Parke has no material liabilities which are not reflected as accruals on the balance sheet
as of March 31, 2006 which is part of the Interim Financial Statements (the “March 31 Balance
Sheet”), other than (i) ordinary course liabilities for wages and benefits, trade payables,
utilities and similar items incurred in the ordinary course of the Business (none of which are for
torts or breach of contract or product liability claims) incurred since March 31, 2006, (ii)
liabilities under any agreements, contracts, commitments, licenses or leases which have arisen in
the ordinary course of business (none of which relates to a material breach of contract or any tort
claim), (iii) liabilities for taxes for the period after March 31, 2006, and (iv) items which are
described on Schedule 4.3 attached hereto or any other Schedule to this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.3(b) shall not be deemed a representation and
warranty with respect to the absence of liabilities that would be required to be disclosed to ELC
pursuant to any other section of this Agreement, it being understood and agreed that the specific
representations and warranties applicable to any liabilities under another section of this
Agreement, including, without limitation, any “knowledge” or “materiality” qualifiers, are intended

proprietorship, corporation or other business entity. Parke and the Stockholder have delivered to
ELC complete copies of (a) the Articles of Incorporation of Parke and all amendments thereto, and
(b) the By-laws of Parke as currently in effect. Parke is duly qualified to do business as a
foreign corporation and is in good standing in each state and jurisdiction in which such licensing
or qualification is required, except where the failure to so qualify or be licensed to do business
could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, assets,
financial condition or prospects of Parke (a “Material Adverse Effect”).



     4.5 Affiliate Transactions. Except as described in Schedule 4.5 attached
hereto, as of the date hereof and since December 31, 2005, neither the Stockholder nor any
Affiliate (as defined below) is or has been indebted to, or is or has been a creditor of, or a
guarantor of any obligation of or a party to any contract, agreement, license, option, commitment
or other arrangement, written or oral, express or implied, with Parke. For purposes of this
Agreement, an “Affiliate” means any director of Parke, any spouse or family member
(including parents, in-laws, children, step-children, siblings, grandchildren and nieces and
nephews) of the Stockholder, or any corporation, partnership or other entity in which the
Stockholder (or the spouse of the Stockholder or any such member of the Stockholder’s family) has
any equity or ownership interest of five percent (5%) or more in the aggregate.



     4.6 Governmental Authorizations. All permits, licenses and other governmental
authorizations (“Governmental Authorizations”) necessary for the operation of Parke’s
business have been obtained and are in full force and effect, except where the failure to have done
so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 4.6
attached hereto contains an accurate list of each Governmental Authorization held by Parke or that



- 7 -









 




otherwise relates to its business. Each such permit or license is valid and in full force and
effect, and no event has occurred or circumstance exists that may (with or without notice or lapse
of time) constitute or result directly or indirectly in a violation of or a failure to comply with
any term or requirement of any such Governmental Authorization, or result directly or indirectly in
the revocation, withdrawal, suspension, cancellation or termination of, or any modification to, any
such Governmental Authorization. Neither Parke nor the Stockholder has received, at any time since
December 31, 2004, any notice or other communication (whether oral or written) from any
governmental body regarding any actual, alleged, possible or potential violation of or failure to
comply with any term or requirement of any Governmental Authorization, or any actual, proposed,
possible or potential revocation, withdrawal, suspension, cancellation, termination of or
modification to any Governmental Authorization. All applications required to have been filed for
the renewal of the Governmental Authorizations and all other filings required to have been made
with respect thereto have been duly filed on a timely basis with the appropriate governmental
bodies.

alleging injury to individuals or property as a result of the ownership, possession or use of any

been any waiver or extension of any applicable statute of limitations, and Parke has not received
any notice of deficiency or adjustment, and complete copies of such returns or reports have been

Parke or the Stockholder in this Agreement, and no statement made by or on behalf of either Parke
or the Stockholder in any certificate, document, exhibit or schedule expressly required to be
furnished hereunder, contains or will contain any untrue statement of a fact or omits or will omit
to state any fact necessary to make such representation or warranty or statement, in light of the
circumstances under which such representation, warranty or statement was made, not misleading to a
prospective purchaser of Parke.



     4.25 No Registration. Parke and the Stockholder understand that when issued at Closing
the Shares will not have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities 



- 15 -









 




Act”), as amended, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions
of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of Stockholder’s representations and warranties as
expressed herein or otherwise made pursuant hereto.




     4.26 Investment. The Stockholder will be acquiring the Shares for his own account for
investment, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with,
any distribution thereof, nor with any present intention of selling, granting any participation in,
or otherwise distributing the same, and the Stockholder does not have any contract, undertaking,
agreement or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participation to such
person or entity or to any third person or entity with respect to any of the Shares. The
Stockholder is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D, Rule 501(a) under the
Securities Act and shall submit to ELC such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably
requested by ELC.



     4.27 Experience. The Stockholder acknowledges that he has such knowledge and
experience in financial, tax and business matters as to enable him to evaluate the merits and risks
of investment in ELC and the Shares and to make an informed investment decision with respect

ask questions of, and receive answers from, the officers of ELC concerning this Agreement, the
exhibits and schedules attached hereto and the Contemplated Transactions, as well as ELC’s
business, management and financial affairs, which questions were answered to the satisfaction of
Parke and the Stockholder. The Stockholder acknowledges that he is also a director of ELC, has
reviewed the Commission Documents (as defined in Section 5.7) and has received all the information
he considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire the Shares.



     4.29 Speculative Nature of Investment. Parke and the Stockholder understand and
acknowledge that an investment in ELC is highly speculative and involves substantial risks, as is
disclosed in certain of the Commission Documents. The Stockholder can bear the economic risk of
such investment and is able, without materially impairing his financial condition, to hold the
Shares for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of his investment.



     4.30 Residency. The residency of Stockholder, and Parke’s principal place of
business, are each in California.



ARTICLE 5  —  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ELC




     ELC hereby represents and warrants to Parke and the Stockholder as follows:



     5.1 Incorporation. ELC is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and is duly qualified as a foreign entity and in
good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of
property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, other than in such
jurisdictions



- 16 -









 




where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing could not be reasonably expected to
have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of ELC and its subsidiaries
taken as a whole, with the requisite power and authority to perform its obligations under this
Agreement, to consummate the Contemplated Transactions and to conduct its business as currently
conducted. Acquisition is a wholly owned subsidiary of ELC. Acquisition is a limited liability
company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
California, with the requisite power and authority to perform its obligations under this Agreement
and to consummate the Contemplated Transactions on its part.




     5.2 No Defaults; Compliance with Law. Except as is disclosed on Schedule 5.2
attached hereto, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the
Contemplated Transactions by ELC is an event which, of itself or with the giving of notice or the
passage of time or both, constitutes a violation of or will conflict with or result in a breach of
or default under the terms, conditions or provisions of any judgment, law or regulation to which
ELC is subject, or of ELC’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, or any contract, agreement or
instrument to which ELC is a party or by which it is bound. ELC is in compliance with all
applicable laws, statutes, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions and decrees of any court or
federal, state, municipal or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or
instrumentality, domestic or foreign, and any applicable arbitration decisions, relating to ELC,
except where the failure to be in such compliance could not reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of ELC and its subsidiaries taken as
a whole. Acquisition is a newly formed entity with no prior activities or business. Neither the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Acquisition nor the consummation of the Contemplated
Transactions by Acquisition is an event which, of itself or with the giving of notice or the
passage of time or both, constitutes a violation of or will conflict with or result in a breach of
or default under the terms, conditions or provisions of any judgment, law or regulation to which
Acquisition is subject, or of Acquisition’s Articles of Organization or limited liability company
agreement, or any contract, agreement or instrument to which Acquisition is a party or by which it
is bound.



     5.3 Corporate Action. Except for obtaining the consent of the holders of ELC’s Series
E Convertible Preferred Stock, which will be obtained prior to Closing, and subject to compliance
with the condition precedent set forth in Section 9.12 below, all corporate actions and proceedings
necessary to be taken by or on the part of ELC to authorize the execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement by ELC and Acquisition have been duly and validly taken. This Agreement has been
duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by ELC and by Acquisition and constitutes a
valid and binding agreement of each of them, enforceable in accordance with and subject to its
terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of
equity.



     5.4 Brokers. There is no broker or finder or similar person who would have any valid
claim against Parke or the Stockholder for a fee or brokerage commission in connection with this
Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions as a result of any agreement, understanding or action by
ELC or Acquisition.



- 17 -









 





     5.5 ELC Capital Structure. ELC currently has 200 million shares of common stock
authorized and 5 million shares of preferred stock authorized. As of the date hereof, 51,297,120
shares of common stock of ELC are issued and outstanding, and 232,613 shares of ELC’s Series E
Convertible Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding, and all such issued and outstanding shares
of common stock and Series E Convertible Preferred Stock have been duly authorized and are fully
paid and non-assessable. As of the date hereof, ELC has outstanding options, warrants and
convertible notes which, if fully exercised on the date hereof would result in the issuance of
33,017,114 additional shares of common stock.



     5.6 ELC Common Stock. The Shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Stockholder
pursuant to the Merger are duly authorized and, when issued to the Stockholder pursuant to
consummation of the Merger and the terms of this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free of all liens, encumbrances and restrictions imposed by law (other than
restrictions upon transfer imposed generally by applicable securities laws) and subject to no
preemptive rights, co-sale rights, rights of first refusal or similar rights in favor of other
persons or entities which have not been waived. Assuming the accuracy of the representations of
Parke and the Stockholder in this Agreement and any investor questionnaire to be delivered to ELC
by the Stockholder, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of
the Contemplated Transactions is an event which, of itself or with the giving of notice or the
passage of time or both, constitutes a violation of or will conflict with or result in a breach of
or default under the terms, conditions or provisions of any judgment, law or regulation to which
ELC is subject, or ELC’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, or any contract, agreement or
instrument to which ELC is a party or by which it is bound and upon consummation of the Merger in
accordance herewith, the ELC Common Stock issuable to the Stockholder hereunder will be issued in
compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws. The registration rights granted
to the Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement do not conflict with and will not cause a breach of
any existing registration rights agreement or other agreement to which ELC is a party.



     5.7 SEC Filings and Reports. Since December 31, 2004, ELC has filed all reports,
schedules, forms, statements and other documents (the “Commission Documents”) required to
be filed by it with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As of their respective dates, the Commission
Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder applicable to the Commission
Documents. Each Commission Document does not as of the date hereof contain an untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances in which they were made not
misleading.



     5.8 Absence of Certain Events. Since December 31, 2005, neither ELC nor any of its
subsidiaries has sustained any material loss or interference with its business from fire,
explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute
or court or governmental action, order or decree.

ELC regarding alleged non-compliance with any Legal Requirement, and any orders, writs,
injunctions, decrees and arbitration decisions in respect of non-compliance with any Legal
Requirement, are listed on Schedule 5.9 and copies of such notices, orders, writs,
injunctions, decrees and arbitration decisions have been made available to Parke and the
Stockholder; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not be deemed
to encompass matters involving compliance with applicable Legal Requirements where one or more
other specific representations are made in Article 5 of this Agreement that cover applicable Legal
Requirements with respect to a specific topic (whether or not the term “Legal Requirements” is used
in such representation and warranty).



     (c) Other than matters disclosed in the Commission Documents or on Schedule 5.9
attached hereto, since December 31, 2005 there have not been and are not now any actions, suits,
investigations or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of ELC, threatened against ELC or any of
its subsidiaries before any court, arbitrator or administrative or governmental body that (a) seek
to enjoin or otherwise prevent the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions or (b) materially
and adversely affect, or as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse decision that
would materially and adversely affect, either individually or collectively, the business or
financial condition of ELC and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.



     (d) Neither ELC nor any of its subsidiaries is in violation of any judgment, order, writ,
injunction, decree, rule or regulation of any court or governmental department, commission, board,
bureau, agency or instrumentality, the violation of which reasonably could be expected to, either
individually or collectively, materially and adversely affect the business or financial condition
of ELC and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.



     5.10 No Misleading Statements or Omissions. No representation or warranty made by ELC
in this Agreement, and no statement made by or on behalf of ELC in any certificate, document,
exhibit or schedule expressly required to be furnished hereunder, contains or will contain any
untrue statement of a fact or omits or will omit to state any fact necessary to make such
representation or warranty or statement, in light of the circumstances under which such
representation, warranty or statement was made, not misleading to a prospective purchaser of
capital stock of ELC.



- 19 -









 





     5.11 Acknowledgement Regarding Transaction. ELC represents that it has had an
adequate opportunity to perform an independent investigation of Parke. ELC acknowledges that it
has been given reasonable access to Parke’s books and records, including the Material Contracts.
ELC further represents that in making the decision to enter into this Agreement, it has relied
solely on its own independent investigation, the representations and warranties and covenants of
Parke and the Stockholder set forth in this Agreement, and ELC’s own assessment of the past,
current and future business requirements of Parke’s business. Accordingly, ELC acknowledges,
represents and warrants that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither Parke nor
the Stockholder has made, and ELC has not relied upon, any representations or warranties of any
nature whatsoever. As of the date hereof, ELC is not aware of any breach of any representation and
warranty made by Parke and the Stockholder in Article 4 of this Agreement.



ARTICLE 6  —  COVENANTS OF PARKE AND THE STOCKHOLDER




     Parke and the Stockholder, jointly and severally, covenant and agree with ELC and Acquisition
that from the date hereof through and including the Closing Date:

records, contracts and documents of Parke or relating to Parke’s current and former employees,
customers and suppliers, and shall be allowed to inspect and cause tests to be made of the assets
and facilities of Parke through the Closing Date. Any such investigation or testing shall be
conducted in such a manner so as to not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Parke’s business
operations. Further, ELC shall indemnify and hold harmless Parke and the Stockholder if any such
testing causes damage to the Leased Real Property or any of Parke’s personal property or adversely
impacts the conduct of Parke’s business operations (excluding any adverse impact with respect to
ELC’s willingness to proceed under this Agreement). ELC shall deliver to Parke and the Stockholder
copies of any reports relating to or arising out of any environmental testing conducted by ELC.
Parke will make available to ELC and such authorized representatives all information with respect
to the affairs and business of Parke as ELC may reasonably request. Nothing contained in this
Section 6.1, nor the exercise by ELC of its rights hereunder, will relieve Parke or the Stockholder
from or limit any liability which may arise out of any breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement of Parke or the Stockholder contained in this Agreement.



     Parke, within 5 days after completion thereof, will provide ELC with copies of internally
prepared balance sheets and operating statements related to Parke for each monthly accounting
period between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date.



     6.2 Conduct of Business. Parke will carry on its business, in the ordinary course and
in the same manner as such business has been carried on heretofore, and Parke will (a) use its best
efforts to do all things necessary to preserve the assets and properties of Parke, (ii) maintain
and keep its tangible assets in good repair, working order and condition, and from time to time
make all needful and proper repairs, renewals and replacements, (iii) perform on a timely basis

contested in good faith pursuant to appropriate proceedings.

     (a) issue, sell, purchase or redeem, or grant options to purchase or otherwise agree to
sell, purchase or redeem, any shares of capital stock or any other securities of Parke, and
on the date of this Agreement, Parke will close its stock transfer books and will not prior
to the Closing record the transfer of any shares of capital stock of Parke;




     (b) consent to or permit any amendment of Parke’s Articles of Incorporation or by-laws;




     (c) consent to or permit Parke to prepay any liability for borrowed money;

4.9 hereof;




     (g) permit Parke to pay any bonus to or increase the compensation payable to or any
other benefits of any employee of Parke;




     (h) permit or consent to declaring or distribution by Parke of any dividend to the
Stockholder; provided, however, that (x) Parke shall be permitted to make and the
Stockholder shall be permitted to accept and receive dividends and/or distributions equal to
the aggregate actual federal and state income tax of Parke allocable to the Stockholder as
taxable income due to his ownership of Parke and its election as an S corporation of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and (y) to the extent not distributed prior
thereto, Parke shall pay to the Stockholder, immediately prior to Closing, a promissory
note, bearing interest at the applicable federal rate, the principal amount of which shall
be the difference between (1) the actual federal and state income tax of Parke allocable to
the Stockholder for the period January 1, 2006 through the Effective Date (which amount
shall pass through and be taxable to the Stockholder for the short S year by reason of the
election by Parke as an S corporation) and (2) the amount of estimated taxes for such income
which was distributed by Parke to the Stockholder prior to the Effective Date, which
promissory note shall be due and payable no later than April 1, 2007, and (z) to the extent
that the same has not been distributed prior to the date of this Agreement, Parke shall be
permitted to make and the Stockholder shall be permitted to



- 21 -









 







accept and receive dividends and/or distributions equal to the aggregate actual federal
and state income of Parke for 2005 allocable to the Stockholder as 2005 taxable income due
to his ownership of Parke and its election as an S corporation;




     (i) permit Parke to enter into any contract or commitment, incur any liability,

ordinary course of business and of the scope and magnitude heretofore entered into, and/or
(B) in an amount greater than $5,000 individually or $25,000 in the aggregate (except
inventory, materials or supplies purchased in the ordinary course of business at market
prices and in reasonable quantities, or the sale of products to customers, in the ordinary
course of business); provided, however, that this clause (i) shall not prohibit
Parke from borrowing funds to fund a distribution or dividend to the
Stockholder which is
permitted under clause (h) immediately preceding;




     (j) permit Parke to modify any Material Contract, except in the ordinary course of
business;




     (k) permit Parke to sell (except for sales from inventory in the ordinary course of

encumbrance not currently imposed on such asset;




     (l) permit Parke to enter into any transaction not in the ordinary course of business;
or




     (m) take any action after the date hereof, the reasonably foreseeable result of which
would be to cause any representation or warranty of Parke or the Stockholder contained in
this Agreement to be or become inaccurate.



     6.4 Organization, Good Will. Parke will preserve Parke’s business organizations
intact, will retain its present key employees, and will use its best efforts to preserve the good
will of its suppliers, customers and others having business relations with Parke.



     6.5 Consents to Leases, Contracts. With respect to each lease, license, contract or
other agreement or instrument which, by its terms, will be breached by the consummation of the
Merger as contemplated hereby unless the consent of the other party thereto is obtained, at no cost
to ELC or Acquisition, Parke and the Stockholder will use its best efforts to obtain or cause to be
obtained such consent, without thereby affecting or impairing the terms or the validity or
enforceability thereof. Schedule 4.2 sets forth a listing of each such lease, contract or
other agreement or instrument.



     6.6 Representations and Warranties. Parke and the Stockholder shall give written
notice to ELC promptly upon the occurrence of or becoming aware of: (i) the impending or threatened
occurrence of any event which would cause, or would have caused had such event occurred or been
known to Parke or the Stockholder prior to the date hereof, any of their representations or
warranties contained in this Agreement to be untrue when made or to be




- 22 -










 







untrue if made as of the Closing Date, (ii) any material adverse development in the condition
(financial or otherwise), operations or prospects of Parke and (iii) the failure of any condition
precedent to any party’s obligation to consummate the Contemplated Transactions.




     6.7 Notice of Proceedings. Parke and the Stockholder will promptly notify ELC in

the parties made pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be made on and as of the date of

     11.2 Indemnification of ELC. The Stockholder agrees to indemnify and hold ELC, its

from and against any and Loss and Expense incurred or suffered by a Parke ELC Indemnified Party
arising out of, relating to or resulting from any of the following:




	 	(a)	 	any breach of or any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made by ELC

	 	(b)	 	any breach of or failure by ELC or Acquisition to perform any covenant or

     11.4 Notice of Claims; Procedure for Indemnification.



     (a) If an ELC Indemnified Party or a Parke Indemnified Party (in either case, an
“Indemnified Party”) believes that it has suffered or incurred any Loss and Expense, such
Indemnified Party shall notify the party obligated to provide indemnification (the
“Indemnifying Party”) in writing describing such Loss and Expense, the amount thereof, if
known, and the method of computation of such Loss and Expense, all with reasonable particularity
and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such Loss and
Expense shall have occurred. If any action at law or suit in equity is instituted by a third party
with respect to which an Indemnified Party intends to claim any liability or expense as Loss and
Expense under this Article 11, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party
of such action or suit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right to indemnification hereunder
shall not be affected by any failure of an Indemnified Party to give such notice or delay by an
Indemnified Party in giving such notice unless, and then only to the extent that, the



- 30 -









 







rights and remedies of the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a
result of the failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice.



     (b) If such indemnity shall arise from the claim of a third party, the Indemnified Party shall
permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim and any litigation resulting
from such claim with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party but at the Indemnifying Party’s
expense. Failure by the Indemnifying Party to notify an Indemnified Party of its election to
defend any such claim or action by a third party within thirty (30) days after notice thereof shall
have been given to the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed a waiver of the right of the Indemnifying
Party to defend such claim or action. If a third party claim or proceeding requires a response
sooner than the thirty (30) day period required for the Indemnifying Party to respond to the
Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall timely respond to the third party claim in a manner
preserving all rights and denying any liability. Indemnifying Party shall not be deemed to have
waived its rights to control defense of the claim hereunder if Indemnifying Party shall within the
thirty (30) day period notify the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will take control
of the defense of such claim.



     (c) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such claim or litigation resulting
therefrom, then counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party shall be subject to approval by the
Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld). The obligations of the Indemnifying Party as
to such claim shall include taking all steps necessary in the defense or settlement of such claim
or litigation and holding the Indemnified Party harmless from and against any and all Losses or
Expenses caused by or arising out of any settlement approved by the Indemnified Party or any
judgment in connection with such claim or litigation. The Indemnifying Party shall keep the
Indemnified Party fully informed of the status of such claims and litigation. The Indemnifying
Party shall not, in the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, consent to
entry of any judgment (other than a judgment of dismissal on the merits without costs) except with
the written consent of the Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, or enter into any
settlement (except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably
withheld) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or a
plaintiff of a release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such claim or
which acts as an admission of a violation of any law, rule, regulation, ordinance, policy or order.
Anything in this Article 11 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Indemnified Party may, with
counsel of its choice and at its expense, participate in the defense of any such claim or
litigation.



     (d) If the Indemnifying Party shall not assume the defense of any such claim by a third party
or litigation resulting therefrom after receipt of notice from such Indemnified Party in accordance
herewith, the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim or litigation in such manner as it
reasonably deems appropriate, and unless there shall be deposited with the Indemnified Party a sum
in cash, letter of credit or bond, equal to the total amount demanded in such claim or litigation
plus the Indemnified Party’s reasonable estimate of the costs of defending the same, the
Indemnified Party may settle such claim or litigation on such terms as it may reasonably deem
appropriate. The Indemnified Party shall inform the Indemnifying Party of the status of such claim
or litigation from time to time upon the Indemnifying Party’s request,



- 31 -









 







and, prior to settling such claim or litigation, the Indemnified Party shall advise the
Indemnifying Party of the terms, provisions and conditions of any proposed settlement;
provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not have any rights to accept,
decline or modify the proposed settlement, nor to direct the Indemnified Party to do any of the
foregoing. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party for the amount of
such settlement and for all other Losses and Expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party
in connection with the defense against or settlement of such claim or litigation. The terms of
such settlement shall be binding upon the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall not
have any right to challenge such settlement.



     (e) If the Indemnified Party refuses to consent, whether reasonably or unreasonably, to any
settlement recommended by the Indemnifying Party then the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of
its obligation to provide a defense and the Indemnifying Party’s monetary liability for any
settlement or judgment shall not exceed either the amount for which the matter could have been
settled or the Indemnifying Party’s maximum liability, whichever is less. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party may
settle or compromise any action, claim or proceeding or consent to entry of judgment with respect
to any such action, claim or proceeding that requires solely the payment of money damages by the
Indemnifying Party and that includes as an unconditional term thereof the release by the claimant
or the plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such action, claim or
proceeding.



     (f) The Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay to the third party the amount of any final and
unappealable judgment rendered with respect to any claim by such third party in litigation and
shall reimburse the Indemnified Party and for all other Losses and Expenses reasonably incurred by
the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense against such claim or litigation, whether or
not resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to, the act of a third party.



     (g) Any payment pursuant to this Section 11.4 shall be made not later than thirty (30) days
after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of written notice from the Indemnified Party stating the
amount thereof and the indemnity payment requested. Any payment not made when due shall bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 3% per annum for each day until paid.
“Prime Rate” means the rate of interest as reported in The Wall Street Journal from
time to time, changing as and when the Prime Rate changes.



     11.5 Limitations on Indemnification.



     (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Stockholder shall not be obligated to
pay any amounts to an Indemnified Party until the aggregate amount which the Stockholder would have
been obligated to pay for all indemnity claims but for this Section 11.5 equals $80,000, and at
such time the Stockholder shall be obligated to pay all amounts for indemnification then owing by
him (but only for amounts in excess of the $80,000 deductible) up to the aggregate amount of
$1,000,000 (the “Cap”), except that such limitation shall not apply to



- 32 -









 







any claims for indemnification arising from the fraudulent acts or omissions of the
Stockholder. No claim for indemnification may be made by an Indemnified Party under this Article
11 at any time after the date that is the 24 month anniversary of the Closing Date.



     (b) The ELC Indemnified Parties shall not have the right to make a claim for indemnification
for a breach of a representation or warranty hereunder to the extent that ELC had actual knowledge
prior to Closing that such representation and warranty or covenant is in breach (excluding, for
this purpose, any knowledge of Parke, who is a director of ELC) and ELC consummates the
transactions contemplated hereby despite the known breach. In such event, ELC shall be deemed to
have waived its rights to make a claim under this Agreement.



     (c) ELC shall be responsible for determining whether the operation of the business by
Acquisition after the Closing is in compliance with applicable Legal Requirements, including,
without limitation, whether ELC has obtained all authorizations necessary to operate the Business,
including without limitation, all Governmental Authorizations, including without limitation,
qualifications for doing business in other states. If Parke operated in violation of any
applicable Legal Requirements prior to the Closing Date, the Stockholder’s liability to ELC for
Loss and Expense shall be limited to Loss and Expense relating to or arising out of Parke’s
violation of applicable Legal Requirements prior to the Closing Date and the Stockholder shall not
be responsible for Loss and Expense arising from Acquisition’s violations of applicable Legal
Requirements after the Closing Date.



     (d) Parke and the Stockholder shall have no obligation to indemnify the ELC Indemnified
Parties pursuant to Section 11.2 to the extent that the Loss and Expense claimed by ELC are already
taken into account as reserves for liabilities in the determination of Closing Net Book Value.



     (e) In connection with ELC’s investigation of Parke, certain projections and certain business
plan information for succeeding fiscal years have been made available to ELC. ELC acknowledges
that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such projections and other forecasts
and plans, that ELC is familiar with such uncertainties, that ELC is taking full responsibility for
making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all projections and other forecasts and
plans so furnished to it, and that ELC shall not have any claim against the Stockholder or any
officers, directors or employees of Parke with respect thereto and no representations or warranties
are made by the Stockholder with respect to such projections, forecasts and plans.



     11.6 Specific Performance. Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, Parke and
the Stockholder agree that, in addition to any other available remedies at law or in equity for
breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Acquisition and ELC shall be entitled to specific
performance against Parke and the Stockholder and the existence of any claim or cause of action
Acquisition or ELC may have will not constitute a defense thereto.



- 33 -









 





     11.7 Expenses of Enforcement. If any legal action or any arbitration or other
proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Agreement, or because of an alleged dispute,
breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement,
the successful or substantially prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’
fees and other costs incurred in that action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to
which it or they may be entitled.



     11.8 Sole Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Article 11 are exclusive and
shall be in lieu of all other remedies for breach of this Agreement, including , without
limitation, for breaches of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements hereunder;
provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this sentence shall not be deemed a waiver
by any party of any right to specific performance or any remedy arising by reason of any claim of
fraud with the respect to this Agreement; ELC acknowledges and agrees that, by agreeing to the
exclusive remedies under Article 11, ELC has no rights against the Stockholder in his capacity as a
director, officer or employee of Parke prior to the Closing Date, or in his capacity as a trustee,
fiduciary or administrator of the [Parke employee benefit and/or welfare plans] prior to the
Closing Date.

compositions, processes, designs, sketches, photographs, graphs, drawings, samples,
inventions and ideas, past, current and planned research and development, current and
planned manufacturing or distribution methods and processes, customer lists, current and

architectures;




     (iii) all information concerning the business and affairs of the Disclosing Party
(which includes historical and current financial statements, financial projections and

however documented), and all information obtained from review of the Disclosing Party’s
documents or property or discussions with the Disclosing Party regardless of the form of the
communication; and




     (vi) all notes, analyses, compilations, studies, summaries and other material prepared
by the Receiving Party to the extent containing or based, in whole or in part, upon any
information included in the foregoing.



     12.2 Restricted Use of Confidential Information. Each Receiving Party acknowledges
the confidential and proprietary nature of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party and
agrees that such Confidential Information (i) shall be kept confidential by the Receiving Party;
(ii) shall not be used for any reason or purpose other than to evaluate and consummate the
Contemplated Transactions, and (iii) without limiting the foregoing, shall not be disclosed by the
Receiving Party to any Person, except in each case as otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of
this Agreement or with the prior written consent of the Stockholder (with respect to Confidential
Information of Parke or the Stockholder) or an authorized representative of ELC with respect to
Confidential Information of Acquisition or ELC. Each of Acquisition and ELC and Parke and the
Stockholder shall disclose the Confidential Information of the other party only to its
representatives who require such information for the purpose of evaluating the Contemplated
Transactions and are informed of the obligations of this Article 12 with respect to such
information. Each of Acquisition, ELC, Parke and the Stockholder shall enforce the terms of this
Article 12 as to its or his respective representatives, take such action to the extent necessary to
cause its or his representatives to comply with the terms and conditions of this Article 12, and be
responsible and liable for any breach of the provisions of this Article 12 by it or him or its or
his representatives.



     12.3 Exceptions. Section 12.2 does not apply to that part of the Confidential
Information of a Disclosing Party that a Receiving Party demonstrates (a) was, is or becomes
generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Article 12 by the
Receiving Party or its agents, counsel or representatives; (b) was or is developed by the Receiving
Party independently of and without reference to any Confidential Information of the Disclosing
Party; or (c) was, is or becomes available to the Receiving Party on a nonconfidential basis from a
Third Party not bound by a confidentiality agreement or any legal, fiduciary or other obligation
restricting disclosure.



     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party may disclose to any and all
Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and all materials that are provided to it (including any opinions or
other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. The
preceding sentence is intended to cause the transactions contemplated hereby not to be treated as
having been offered under conditions of confidentiality for purposes of Section 1.6011-4(b)(3) (or
any successor provision) of the United States Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 6011
of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be construed in a manner
consistent with such purpose.

     12.4 Legal Proceedings. If a Receiving Party becomes compelled in any legal
proceeding or is requested by a governmental body or authority having regulatory jurisdiction over
the Contemplated Transactions or such party to make any disclosure that is prohibited or otherwise
constrained by this Article 12, that Receiving Party shall provide the Disclosing Party with prompt
notice of such compulsion or request so that it may seek an appropriate protective order or other
appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Article 12. In the absence of a
protective order or other remedy, the Receiving Party may disclose that portion (and only that
portion) of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party that, based upon advice of the
Receiving Party’s counsel, the Receiving Party is legally compelled to disclose or that has been
requested by such Governmental Body, provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall use
reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded by any
Person to whom any Confidential Information is so disclosed. The provisions of this Section 12.4
do not apply to any Proceedings between the parties to this Agreement or with respect to disclosure
authorized under the second paragraph of Section 12.3.



     12.5 Return or Destruction of Confidential Information. If this Agreement is
terminated, each Receiving Party shall return all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party
or shall destroy any Confidential Information not returned and certify all such destruction in
writing to the Disclosing Party, provided, however, that the Receiving Party may retain a
list that contains general descriptions of the information it has returned or destroyed to
facilitate the resolution of any controversies after the Disclosing Party’s Confidential
Information is returned.



     12.6 Attorney Client Privilege. A Disclosing Party is not waiving, and will not be
deemed to have waived or diminished, any of its attorney work product protections, attorney-client
privileges or similar protections and privileges as a result of disclosing its Confidential
Information (including Confidential Information related to pending or threatened litigation) to the
Receiving Party, regardless of whether such Disclosing Party has asserted, or is or may be entitled
to assert, such privileges and protections. The parties (a) share a common legal and commercial
interest in all of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that is subject to such
privileges and protections; (b) are or may become joint defendants in Proceedings to which the
Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information covered by such protections and privileges relates; (c)
intend that such privileges and protections remain intact should either party become subject to any
actual or threatened Proceeding to which the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information covered by
such protections and privileges relates; and (d) intend that after the Closing the Receiving Party
shall have the right to assert such protections and privileges. No Receiving Party shall admit,
claim or contend, in Proceedings involving either party or otherwise, that any Disclosing Party
waived any of its attorney work-product protections, attorney-client privileges or similar
protections and privileges with respect to any information, documents or other material not
disclosed to a Receiving Party due to the Disclosing Party disclosing its Confidential Information
(including Confidential Information related to pending or threatened litigation) to the Receiving
Party.
