     7.4 NOTICE OF CLAIMS.

         (a) A party (the "Indemnified Party") seeking indemnification
     hereunder shall give to the party obligated to provide indemnification to
     such Indemnified Party (the "Indemnitor") a notice (a "Claim Notice")
     describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for
     indemnification hereunder and shall include in such Claim Notice (if then
     known) the amount or the method of computation of the amount of such 
     claim, and a reference to the provision of this Agreement or any other
     agreement, document or 


                                    Page 8



<PAGE>   9
instrument executed hereunder or in connection herewith upon which such claim
is based; provided, that a Claim Notice in respect of any action at law or suit
in equity by or against a third person as to which indemnification will be
sought shall be given promptly after the action or suit is commenced; provided
further, that failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor of
its obligations hereunder except to the extent it shall have been prejudiced by
such failure.

     (b) In calculating any Loss there shall be deducted (i) any insurance
recovery in respect thereof (and no right of subrogation shall accrue hereunder
to any insurer) and (ii) the amount of any tax benefit to the Indemnified Party
with respect to such Loss or Expense (after giving effect to the tax effect of
receipt of the indemnification payments).

     (c) After the giving of any Claim Notice pursuant hereto, the amount of
indemnification to which an Indemnified Party shall be entitled under this
Article VII shall be determined: (i) by the written agreement between the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor; (ii) by a final judgment or decree of any
court of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) by any other means to which the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor shall agree. The judgment or decree of a
court shall be deemed final when the time for appeal, if any, shall have
expired and no appeal shall have been taken or when all appeals taken shall
have been finally determined. The Indemnified Party shall have the burden of
proof in establishing the amount of Loss suffered by it.

7.5. THIRD PERSON CLAIMS.

     (a) Subject to Section 7.5(b), the Indemnified Party shall have the right
to conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, the defense,
compromise or settlement of any third person claim, action or suit against such
Indemnified Party as to which indemnification will be sought by any Indemnified
Party from any Indemnitor hereunder, and in any such case the Indemnitor shall
cooperate in connection therewith and shall furnish such records, information
and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings,
trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnified Party in
connection therewith; provided, that the Indemnitor may participate, through
counsel chosen by it and at its own expense, in the defense of any such claim,
action or suit as to which the Indemnified Party has so elected to conduct and
control the defense thereof; and provided, further, that the Indemnified Party
shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnitor (which written consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), pay, compromise or settle any such claim,
action or suit, except that no such consent shall be required if, following a
written request from the Indemnified Party, the Indemnitor shall fail, within
14 days after the making of such request, to acknowledge and agree in writing
that, if such claim, action or suit shall be adversely determined, such
Indemnitor has an obligation to provide indemnification hereunder to such
Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall
have the right to pay, settle or compromise any such claim, action or suit
without such consent, provided that in such event the Indemnified Party shall
waive any right to indemnity hereunder unless such consent is unreasonably
withheld.

     (b) If any third person claim, action or suit against any Indemnified
Party is solely for money damages or, where Seller is the Indemnitor, will have
no continuing effect in any material respect on the Purchased Assets, then the
Indemnitor shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of its
choosing, the defense, compromise or settlement of any such third person claim,
action or suit against such Indemnified Party from any Indemnitor hereunder if
the Indemnitor has acknowledged and agreed in writing that, if the same is
adversely determined, the Indemnitor has an obligation to provide
indemnification to the Indemnified Party in respect thereof, and in any such
case the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in connection therewith and shall
furnish such records, information and testimony and attend such conferences,
discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals 




                                    Page 9


<PAGE>   10
     as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnitor in connection therewith;
     provided, that the Indemnified Party may participate, through counsel,
     chosen by it and at its own expense, in the defense of any such claim,
     action or suit as to which the Indemnitor has so elected to conduct and
     control the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
     indemnified party shall have the right to pay, settle or compromise any
     such claim, action or suit, provided that in such event the Indemnified
     party shall waive any right to indemnity therefor hereunder unless the
     Indemnified Party shall have sought the consent of the Indemnitor to such
     payment, settlement or compromise and such consent was unreasonably
     withheld, in which event no claim for indemnity therefor hereunder shall
     be waived.

     7.6. THRESHOLD AND EXCLUSIVITY.

          (a)  Seller shall not be liable and Buyer agrees not to enforce any
     claim for indemnification under this Agreement until the aggregate of all
     such claims exceeds $50,000 (the "Threshold Amount"), and then the Buyer
     shall be entitled to recover only the amount of such claims in excess of
     the Threshold Amount. Buyer shall provide Seller with a notice of all
     claims included in the Threshold Amount. the maximum liability of Seller
     for all claims and damages of every kind and character arising under or
     in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
     hereby, including indemnification, shall be an amount equal to the
     Purchase Price. Claims for indemnification in excess of the Threshold
     Amount shall be made only in increments of $2,500 or more, and claims
     relating to similar products or constituting like claims may be aggregated
     in determining the $2,500 amount.

          (b)  Indemnification pursuant to this Article VII shall be the sole
     and exclusive remedy for any claim for monetary damages resulting from a
     breach of any representation or warranty under this Agreement, the
     Schedules hereto and any certificate delivered pursuant hereto.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

investigation provided for herein and the preparation of this Agreement and
other related documents, and, in the event the transactions contemplated hereby
shall not be consummated, each party will return to the other party all copies

therewith. Such documents, materials and information shall not be communicated

accountants, financial advisors or lenders, and in the case of Seller, to its
counsel, accountants or financial advisors). No other party shall use any
confidential information in any manner whatsoever except solely for the purpose
of evaluating the proposed purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets; provided,
however, that after the Closing Buyer may use or disclose any confidential
information included in the Purchased Assets. The obligation of each party to
treat such documents, materials and other information in confidence shall not
apply to any information which (i) is or becomes available to such party from a
source other than such party, (ii) is or becomes available to the public other
than as a result of disclosure by such party or its agents, (iii) is required
to be disclosed under applicable law or judicial process, but only to the 
extent it must be disclosed, or (iv) such party reasonably deems necessary to
disclose to obtain any of the consents or approvals contemplated hereby.

     8.2. NO PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall, without the
approval of the other, make any press release or other public announcement
concerning the transactions 



                                   Page 10

contemplated by this Agreement, except as and to the extent that any such party
shall be so obligated by law or the rules of any stock exchange, in which case
the other party shall be advised and the parties shall use their best efforts
to cause a mutually agreeable release or announcement to be issued; provided
that the foregoing shall not preclude communications or disclosures necessary
to implement the provisions of this Agreement or to comply with the accounting
and Securities and Exchange Commission disclosure obligations.

and duties under this Agreement only with the prior written consent of Seller.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their successors and permitted assigns.

     8.5. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENTS. This Agreement and the Attachments and
Schedules referred to herein, the documents delivered pursuant hereto and the
Non-Disclosure Agreement between Seller and Bear Communications Llp dated
December 11, 1996 contain the entire understanding of the parties hereto with

prior agreements, understandings or letters of intent between or among 
 



                                   Page 11



<PAGE>   12
any of the parties hereto. This Agreement shall not be amended, modified or
supplemented except by a written instrument signed by an authorized
representative of each of the parties hereto.

     8.6. INTERPRETATION. Article titles and headings to sections herein are
inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of
or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The Schedules and
Attachments referred to herein shall be construed with and as an integral part
of this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein.

     8.7. WAIVERS. Any term or provision of this Agreement may be waived, or
the time for its performance may be extended, by the party or parties entitled
to the benefit thereof. Any such waiver shall be validly and sufficiently
authorized for the purposes of this Agreement if, as to any party, it is
authorized in writing by an authorized representative of such party. The
failure of any party hereto to enforce at any time any provision of this
Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provision, nor in any
way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of
any party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any
breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other or
subsequent breach.

     8.8. EXPENSES. Each party hereto will pay all costs and expenses incident
to its negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and to its performance and
compliance with all agreements and conditions contained herein on its part to
be performed or complied with, including the fees, expenses and disbursements
of its counsel and accountants.

     8.9. PARTIAL INVALIDITY. Wherever possible, each provision hereof shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any
reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
provision shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the extent, of such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder
of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions or any other
provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be unreasonable.

     8.10. EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original instrument,
but all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall
become binding when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the
parties hereto and delivered to each of Seller and Buyer.

     8.11. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws (as opposed to
the conflicts of law provisions) of the State of Illinois. Seller and Buyer
will attempt to settle any claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement
through consultation and negotiation in good faith and a spirit of mutual
cooperation. If those attempts fail, then the dispute will be mediated by a
mutually-acceptable mediator to be chosen by Seller and Buyer within 45 days
after written notice by one of the parties demanding mediation. Neither party
may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of a mediator, and Seller
and Buyer will share the costs of the mediation equally. By mutual agreement,
however, Seller and Buyer may postpone mediation until each has completed some
specified but limited discovery about the dispute. The parties may also agree
to replace mediation with some other form of alternative dispute resolution
(ADR), such as neutral fact-finding or a minitrial.

     Any dispute which cannot resolve by the parties through negotiation,
mediation or other form of ADR within six months of the date of the initial
demand for it by one of the parties hereto may then be submitted to the courts
within the State of Illinois for resolution (as provided in Section 8.12
below). The use of any ADR procedures will not be construed under the doctrines
of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either party.
Nothing in this section will prevent either party from resorting to judicial
proceedings if (a) good faith efforts to resolve the dispute under these
procedures have been unsuccessful or (b) interim relief from a court is
necessary to prevent serious and irreparable injury to one party or to others.

     8.12. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. Seller and Buyer hereby irrevocable
submit in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relate to this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby to the
jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Illinois and the jurisdiction of any court of the State of Illinois located in
Chicago and waive any and all objections to jurisdiction that they may have
under the laws of the State of Illinois or the United States.

     8.13. BULK TRANSFER. Buyer hereby waives compliance by Seller with all
applicable bulk transfer, bulk sales and similar laws and requirements of all
jurisdictions in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Seller
shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer against any and all expense, loss or
damage which Buyer may suffer as a result of claims asserted by third parties
against Buyer due to any noncompliance by Seller with applicable bulk transfer
laws.
