Davies Seller Note (the "Note Conversion Shares") as follows:

            (a) If at any time the Purchaser proposes to register any the shares
of its common stock, $0.001 par value per share ("NIM Shares"), under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), either for its own
account or for the account of others, on a registration form that would also
permit the registration of the Note Conversion Shares (or any NIM Shares
received by the Shareholder arising from a stock dividend, stock split,
reorganization, reclassification, merger, exchange or similar occurrence) (other
than a registration covering NIM Shares issued pursuant to an employee benefit
plan, or a registration on Form S-4 for the purpose of offering such securities
to another business entity or the shareholders of such entity in connection with
the acquisition of assets or shares of capital stock, respectively, of such
entity), the Purchaser shall, each such time, promptly give each Shareholder
written notice of such proposal. Within 30 days after such written notice is
given, each Shareholder shall give notice to the Purchaser as to the number of
shares of the Note Conversion Shares, if any, which such Shareholder requests to
be registered simultaneously with such registration by the Purchaser. The
Purchaser shall include in such registration statement the Note Conversion
Shares that each Shareholder requests to be registered under the Securities Act
and shall take such actions as shall be necessary to maintain the effectiveness
of such registration for a period of two hundred seventy (270) days.


                                       10

            (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such registration statement
was initiated by the Purchaser to effect a primary public offering of its
securities and, if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to
so register securities and before the effectiveness of the registration
statement filed in connection with such registration, the Purchaser determines
for any reason either not to effect such registration or to delay such
registration, the Purchaser may, at its election, by prior written notice to
each Shareholder: (i) in the case of a determination not to effect registration,
relieve itself of its obligation to register the Note Conversion Shares in
connection with such registration; or (ii) in the case of a determination to
delay registration, delay the registration of the Note Conversion Shares for the
same period as the delay registration of such other securities. Each Shareholder
may, at any time before the effective date of the registration statement
relating to such registration, revoke such request by written notice of such
revocation to the Purchaser, in which case the Purchaser shall cause the Note
Conversion Shares to be withdrawn from such registration statement. In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, in connection with any
offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company's capital stock, the
Company shall not be required to include any of the Note Conversion Shares in
such underwriting unless each Shareholder accepts the terms of the underwriting
as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by
other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such
quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not
jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company, provided, however, that
if securities are being offered for the account of persons or entities as well
as the Company, such reduction shall not represent a greater fraction of the
number of Note Conversion Shares intended to be offered by a Shareholder than
the fraction of similar reductions imposed on such other persons or entities
(other than the Company).

            (c) In connection with any registration of Note Conversion Shares,
each Shareholder and the Company shall enter into indemnification arrangements
customary for a registration of this nature.

arise out of any action or inaction prior to the Closing Date of the Company,
Haddon, or any director, officer, employee, agent, representative or
subcontractor of the Company or Haddon or either Shareholder or John Ermilio or
a state of facts prior to Closing Date, and which is not expressly disclosed in
this Agreement or in the Schedules hereto or in the Haddon Agreement or in the
Schedules thereto; and

            (g) any claim, action, suit or other proceeding asserting that any
sales tax is payable in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or
under the Haddon Agreement.

      The Shareholders acknowledge and agree that the Purchaser shall not be
required to seek indemnification from John Ermilio prior to seeking
indemnification from the Shareholders for any Losses attributable to John
Ermilio or Haddon under this Article X.

      10.3 Indemnification by the Purchaser. On the condition that the Closing
is effected, the Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Shareholders
and the Shareholders' respective successors and permitted assigns (each a
"Shareholder Indemnified Person"), from and defend each of them from and against
and will pay each Shareholder Indemnified Person for any and all Losses asserted
against, imposed upon or incurred by any such Shareholder Indemnified Person,
directly or indirectly, resulting from or arising out of or in connection with
or relating to any of the following:

            (a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of
the Purchaser contained herein;

            (b) any breach of any agreement, covenant or obligation of the
Purchaser contained herein;


                                       38
<PAGE>

            (c) any liability, obligation or responsibility of the Company or
which in any way relates to the Business or the Company's assets (including,
without limitation, any liability for Taxes or withholdings) arising solely out
of the operation of the Company after the Closing Date, excluding any such
liability, obligation or responsibility arising out of the action or inaction
of, or attributable to the actions of, either Shareholder, whether in such
Shareholder's capacity as an employee of either Company or any of its Affiliates
or otherwise; and

            (d) any liability, obligation or responsibility of the Company to
the extent disclosed on the Working Capital Statement.

      10.4 Indemnification Procedures - Third-Party Claims.

            (a) The rights and obligations of a party claiming a right to
indemnification under this Article X (each an "Indemnitee") from another party
hereto (each an "Indemnitor") in any way relating to a Third Party Claim shall
be governed by the following procedures of this Section 10.4:

                  (i) The Indemnitee shall give prompt written notice to the
Indemnitor of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, or any written
threat thereof, or any state of facts which the Indemnitee reasonably determines
will give rise to a claim by the Indemnitee against the Indemnitor based on the
indemnity agreements contained in this Article X, which notice shall set forth
the nature and basis of the claim and the amount thereof (or a reasonable
estimate of such amount), to the extent known and any other reasonably relevant
information in the possession of the Indemnitee (a "Notice of Claim"). No
failure to give a Notice of Claim shall affect the indemnification obligations
of an Indemnitor hereunder, except to the extent such failure materially
prejudices such Indemnitor's ability to successfully defend the matter giving
rise to the indemnification claim.

                  (ii) In the event that an Indemnitee furnishes an Indemnitor
with a Notice of Claim, then upon the written acknowledgment by the Indemnitor
given to the Indemnitee within thirty (30) days after the Indemnitor's receipt
of the Notice of Claim, that the Indemnitor is undertaking and will prosecute
the defense of the claim under the indemnity agreements contained in this
Article X and confirming that as between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, the
claim covered by the Notice of Claim is the obligation of the Indemnitor, with
respect to which the Indemnitor is obligated to indemnify and hold harmless the
Indemnitee hereunder and that the Indemnitor will be able to pay the full amount
of potential liability in connection with such claim (including, without
limitation, any action, suit or proceeding and all proceedings on appeal which
legal counsel for the Indemnitee shall deem appropriate) (an "Indemnification
Acknowledgment"), then the claim covered by the Notice of Claim may be defended
by the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitee is authorized to file
any motion, answer or other pleading that may be reasonably necessary or
appropriate to protect its interests during such thirty (30) day period. In the
event the Indemnitor does not furnish an Indemnification Acknowledgment to the
Indemnitee within such time period, or does not offer reasonable assurances to
the Indemnitee as to Indemnitor's financial capacity to satisfy any final
judgment or settlement, the Indemnitee may, upon written notice to the


                                       39
<PAGE>

Indemnitor, assume control of the defense (with legal counsel chosen by the
Indemnitee) and defend, settle or dispose of the claim, at the sole cost and
expense of the Indemnitor. Notwithstanding receipt of an Indemnification
Acknowledgment, the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own legal
counsel in respect of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, but the fees
and expenses of such legal counsel shall be at the Indemnitee's own cost and
expense, unless (A) the employment of such legal counsel and the payment of such
fees and expenses both shall have been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor
or (B) the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded, based upon a written
opinion of legal counsel to the Indemnitee, a copy of which shall be furnished
to the Indemnitor, that there may be conflicts in the defenses available to the
Indemnitee which are different from or additional to those available to the
Indemnitor (if the Indemnitor is also a party or potential party to the claim)
or the claim is one which could have a material adverse effect on the business,
operations, assets, properties or prospects of the Indemnitee in which case the
costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee shall be borne by the Indemnitor.

                  (iii) The Indemnitee or the Indemnitor, as the case may be,
depending upon who is controlling the defense of the action, suit or proceeding,
shall keep the other fully informed of such claim, action, suit or proceeding at
all stages thereof, whether or not the other is represented by legal counsel.
Subject to the Indemnitor furnishing the Indemnitee with an Indemnification
Acknowledgment in accordance with Section 10.4(ii) hereof, the Indemnitee shall
cooperate with the Indemnitor and provide such assistance, at the sole cost and
expense of the Indemnitor, as the Indemnitor may reasonably request in
connection with the defense of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding,
including, but not limited to, providing the Indemnitor with access to and use
of all relevant corporate records and making available its officers and
employees for depositions, pre-trial discovery and as witnesses at trial, if
required. In requesting any such cooperation, the Indemnitor shall have due
regard for, and attempt to not be disruptive of, the business and day-to-day
operations of the Indemnitee and shall follow the requests of the Indemnitee
regarding any documents or instruments which the Indemnitee reasonably believes
should be given confidential treatment or is subject to a privilege.

            (b) The Indemnitor shall not settle any claim, action, suit or
proceeding which Indemnitor has undertaken to defend, in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this Article X, without the Indemnitee's prior written
consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless
there is no obligation on the part of the Indemnitee to contribute to any
payment made to settlement of the claim, action, suit or proceeding, the
Indemnitee receives a general and unconditional release with respect to the
claim (which shall be in form, substance and scope reasonably acceptable to the
Indemnitee), there is no finding or admission of violation of any Legal
Requirement by, or effect on any other claims that may be made against the
Indemnitee and the relief granted in connection therewith requires no action on
the part of and has no effect on the Indemnitee or its business or reputation.
If the Indemnitee is controlling the defense of the claim, action, suit or
proceeding, the Indemnitee shall not settle the claim, action, suit, or
proceeding without the Indemnitor's prior written consent (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

            (c) Any claim made by a Purchaser Indemnified Person or a
Shareholder Indemnified Person that may be made under more than one subsection
under Section 10.2 or Section 10.3, as applicable, may be made under the
subsection that the claiming party may elect in its sole discretion,
notwithstanding that such claim may be made under more than one subsection.

      10.5 Procedure for Indemnification -- Direct Indemnification Claims. A
claim for indemnification for any matter not relating to a Third Party Claim may
be asserted by notice directly by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor.

      10.6 Offset Rights - Seller Notes. The parties acknowledge and agree that
any and all amounts due and payable under the Rosen Seller Note and/or the
Davies Seller Note shall be subject to offset by the Purchaser on a
dollar-for-dollar basis for any amounts determined to be due and payable by the
Shareholders to any Purchaser Indemnified Person under this Article X, with the
amount of each such offset to be allocated between the Rosen Seller Note and/or
the Davies Seller Note ratably in proportion to (a) the Shareholders' respective
liability for any such indemnification payment and (b) if both are liable, their
respective ownership interests in the Company. To secure the Purchaser's right
to such offset, the parties acknowledge and agree that, commencing on the date
of a Shareholder's receipt of a Notice of Claim, the Purchaser shall deposit
with an escrow agent mutually satisfactory to the parties any payments under the
Seller Notes thereafter due and payable that are subject to offset as set forth
in the preceding sentence, in direct order of maturity, until such deposits
equal the claim of the Purchaser Indemnified Person set forth in the Notice of
Claim, which escrowed funds shall be released upon the final disposition of such
claimed Loss. The offset rights in this Section 10.6 shall expire on the second
anniversary of the Closing Date.

      10.7 Right to Indemnification Not Affected by Knowledge or Waiver.

            (a) The right to indemnification hereunder, payment of Losses or
other remedy based upon breach of any representation, warranty, covenant,
agreement 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 time, whether before or after the execution and
delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date (including, without limitation,
the due diligence investigation engaged in by the Purchaser and its
representatives), with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance or
noncompliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or
obligation.

            (b) The waiver of any condition to a party's obligation to
effectuate the Closing and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby,
where such condition is based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty,
or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant, agreement or
obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Losses or
other remedy based on such representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or
obligation.

      10.8 Limitations.

            (a) Neither party shall have any obligation to indemnify the other
party with respect to any claimed Loss for which a claim has not been made
within two (2) years after the Closing.

            (b) Each Shareholder's obligation to indemnify the Purchaser with
respect to a claimed Loss for which a claim has been made after the earlier of
(i) the date of filing of the Purchaser's Form 10-KSB for its fiscal year ending
December 31, 2006 and (ii) March 31, 2007, but within two years after the


                                       41
<PAGE>

Closing, shall be limited to the Seller Notes offset rights of the Purchaser set
forth in Section 10.6 hereof.

            (c) Neither party shall have any right to indemnification payment to
Section 10.2(a) or Section 10.3(a) until aggregate Losses thereunder for such a
party exceeds $50,000, in which event such party shall be entitled to such
indemnification from the first dollar of Losses. The amount of any payment or
reimbursement for a Loss shall be net of any insurance proceeds or
indemnification amounts actually received or to be received by the Indemnitee in
respect of such Loss.

            (d) The aggregate obligations of the Shareholders pursuant to this
Article X and Section 10.2A of the Haddon Agreement shall not exceed (i) with
respect to Rosen, the Rosen Purchase Price and (ii) with respect to Davies, the
Davies Purchase Price.

            (e) Rosen and Davies shall comply with the indemnifications
provisions of this Article X irrespective of any dispute among Rosen, Davis and
John Ermilio, as among themselves, as to the allocation of responsibility or
liability therefor, and such persons shall not name or otherwise join the
Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in any action or proceeding relating to the
foregoing.


                                   Article XI

or a waiver of any other breach of, or failure to comply with, any other
provision or condition of this Agreement, any such waiver to be limited to the

to enforce such rights, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right.
