                           of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is
                           sought in a proceeding at law or in equity;

                           for which Lease Consents (as hereinafter defined) are
                           obtained), will not result in a breach of or default
                           under such Lease, and will not otherwise cause such
                           Lease to cease to be legal, valid, binding,
                           enforceable and in full force and effect on identical

                           enjoyment of the Leased Real Property under such

                           delivery of notice, the passage of time or both,
                           would constitute such a breach or default, or permit
                           the termination, modification or acceleration of rent
                           under such Lease;

                           thereof deposited with respect to such Lease has been
                           applied in respect of a breach or default under such
                           Lease which has not been redeposited in full;

                                    (F)      the Company does not owe, and will
                           not owe in the future, any brokerage commissions or
                           finder's fees with respect to such Lease;

                                    (G)      the other party to such Lease is
                           not an Affiliate of, and otherwise does not have any
                           economic interest in, the Company;

                                    (H)      the Company has not subleased,
                           licensed or otherwise granted any Person the right to
                           use or occupy such Leased Real Property or any
                           portion thereof; and

                                    (I)      the Company has not collaterally
                           assigned or granted any other Security Interest,
                           except for Permitted Encumbrances, in such Lease or
                           any interest therein.

                                    (iii)    The Owned Real Property identified
                  in Section 4(n)(i) of the Disclosure Schedule, and the Leased
                  Real Property identified in Section 4(n)(ii)(collectively, the
                  "Real Property") comprise all of the real property used or
                  intended to be used in the business of the Company; and,
                  except for purchase options granted under the leases described
                  in Section 6(a)(v) below, the Company is not a party to any
                  agreement or option to purchase any real property or interest
                  therein.

                                    (iv)     All buildings, structures,
                  fixtures, building systems, parking lots and equipment, and
                  all components thereof, included in the Real Property (the
                  "Improvements") are in condition and repair sufficient for the
                  operation of the business of the Company consistent with past
                  practices. To the Knowledge of the Sellers, there are no facts
                  or conditions affecting any of the Improvements which would,
                  individually or in the aggregate, interfere in any respect
                  with the use or occupancy of the Improvements or any portion
                  thereof in

                                       18

                  the operation of the business of the Company as currently
                  conducted thereon.

                                    (v)      The Company has not received
                  written notice of any condemnation, expropriation or other
                  proceeding in eminent domain, affecting any parcel of Real
                  Property or any portion thereof or interest therein. There is
                  no injunction, decree, order, writ or judgment outstanding,
                  nor any claims, litigation, administrative actions or similar
                  proceedings, pending or, to the Knowledge of the Sellers,
                  threatened, relating to the ownership, lease, use or occupancy
                  of the Real Property or any portion thereof, or the operation
                  of the business of the Company as currently conducted thereon
                  or proposed to be conducted.

                                    (vi)     The Real Property is in compliance
                  with all applicable building, zoning, subdivision, health and
                  safety and other land use Laws, including The Americans with
                  Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, and all insurance
                  requirements affecting the Real Property (collectively, the
                  "Real Property Laws"). The Company has not received any notice
                  of violation of any Real Property Law and there is no basis
                  for the issuance of any such notice or the taking of any
                  action for such violation.

                                    (vii)    To the Knowledge of the Sellers,
                  each parcel of Real Property has direct access to a public
                  street adjoining the Real Property or has access to a public
                  street via insurable easements benefiting such parcel of Real
                  Property, and such access is not dependent on any land or
                  other real property interest which is not included in the Real
                  Property. To the Knowledge of the Sellers, none of the
                  Improvements or any portion thereof is dependent for its
                  access, use or operation on any land, building, improvement or
                  other real property interest which is not included in the Real
                  Property.

                                    (viii)   Except as set forth on Section
                  4(n)(viii) of the Disclosure Schedule, to the Knowledge of the
                  Sellers, all water, oil, gas, electrical, steam, compressed
                  air, telecommunications, sewer, storm and waste water systems
                  and other utility services or systems for the Real Property
                  have been installed and are operational and sufficient for the
                  operation of the business of the Company as currently
                  conducted thereon.

                                    (ix)     To the Knowledge of the Sellers,
                  the Company's use or occupancy of the Real Property or any
                  portion thereof and the operation of the business of the
                  Company as currently conducted thereon is not dependent on a
                  "permitted non-conforming use" or "permitted non-conforming
                  structure" or similar variance, exemption or approval from any
                  governmental authority.

                                    (x)      To the Knowledge of the Sellers,
                  the current use and occupancy of the Real Property and the
                  operation of the business of the Company as currently
                  conducted thereon does not violate in any respect any
                  easement, covenant, condition, restriction or similar
                  provision in any instrument of record or other unrecorded
                  agreement affecting such Real Property.

                                    (xi)     To the Knowledge of the Sellers,
                  none of the Real Property or any portion thereof is located in
                  a flood hazard area (as defined by the Federal Emergency
                  Management Agency).

                                    (xii)    The terminations of the Leases set
                  forth in Section 6(a)(iv) are effective to terminate those
                  Leases and release the Company from all obligations and
                  liabilities thereunder. The Leases executed and delivered
                  pursuant to Section 6(a)(v) below are duly executed by the
                  landlords, and valid and legally binding obligations of the
                  landlords, enforceable in accordance with their respective
                  terms and conditions, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
                  insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
                  affecting creditors' rights generally and to general
                  principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is
                  sought in a proceeding at law or in equity. Neither the
                  execution and delivery of any such Lease by the landlords, nor
                  the consummation of the performance of each landlord's
                  obligations thereunder will (i) violate any constitution,
                  statute, regulation, rule, injunction, judgment, order,
                  decree, ruling, charge, or other restriction of any
                  government, governmental agency, or court to which any
                  landlord is subject or any provision of the charter or
                  operating agreement of any landlord or (ii) conflict with,
                  result in a breach of, constitute a default under, result in
                  the acceleration of, create in any party the right to
                  accelerate, terminate, modify, or cancel, or require any
                  notice under any agreement, contract, lease, license,
                  instrument, or other arrangement to which any landlord is a
                  party or by which it is bound or to which any of its assets is
                  subject (or result in the imposition of any Security Interest
                  upon any of its assets). No landlord under any of the Leases
                  executed and delivered pursuant to Section 6(a)(v) below is
                  required to give any notice to, make any filing with, or
                  obtain any authorization, consent, or approval of any
                  government or governmental agency in order for such landlord
                  to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each
                  such Lease.

                           (o)      Intellectual Property.

                                    (i)      To the Knowledge of the Sellers,
                  the Company has not interfered with, infringed upon,
                  misappropriated, or violated any Intellectual Property rights
                  of third parties in any respect, and none of the Sellers or
                  the directors and officers of the Company has ever received
                  any charge, complaint, claim, demand, or notice alleging any
                  such interference, infringement, misappropriation, or
                  violation (including any claim that the Company must license
                  or refrain from using any Intellectual Property rights of any
                  third party). To the Knowledge of the Sellers, no third party
                  has interfered with, infringed upon, misappropriated, or
                  violated any Intellectual Property rights of the Company in
                  any respect.

                                    (ii)     Section 4(o)(ii) of the Disclosure
                  Schedule identifies each patent or registration which has been
                  issued to the Company with respect to any of its Intellectual
                  Property, identifies each pending patent application or
                  application for registration which the Company has made with

                                    (D)      the Company has not granted any
                           sublicense or similar right with respect to the
                           license, sublicense, agreement, or permission; and

                           patents expiring at the end of their statutory terms
                           (and not as a result of any act or omission by the
                           Sellers or the Company, including without limitation,
                           a failure by the Sellers or the Company to pay any

         and repair (subject to normal wear and tear) sufficient for the
         operation of the Company's business consistent with past practices. The
         Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the average age of the Company's
         fleet of tractors and trailers is older than that of its own fleet and
         shall not assert any breach of this representation or warranty or any
         similar representation or warranty contained in this Section 4
         regarding the same subject matter arising from such fact or the
         Company's replacement of the Company's fleet of tractors and trailers
         due solely to the relative disparity in the age of the Buyer's and the
         Company's fleets.

                           (q)      Inventory. The inventory of the Company

         parts, work in process, and finished goods, all of which is
         merchantable and fit for the purpose for which it was procured or
         manufactured, and none of which is slow moving, obsolete, damaged, or
         defective, subject only to the reserve for inventory writedown set
         forth on the face of the Most Recent Balance Sheet (rather than in any
         notes thereto) as adjusted for operations and transactions through the
         Closing Date in accordance with the past custom and practice of the
         Company.

         Sellers, except as set forth in Section 4(w) of the Disclosure
         Schedule, no executive, key employee or contractor, or significant
         group of employees (including leased employees) or contractors (other
         than Sellers) plans to terminate employment or their relationship with
         the Company during the next 12 months. The Company is not a party to or
         bound by any collective bargaining agreement, nor has the Company
         experienced or been threatened with, any strike, labor dispute, work
         stoppage, work slowdown, "work-to-rule" action or similar action or
         grievance, claim of unfair labor practices, or other collective
         bargaining dispute within the past three years. The Company has not
         committed any unfair labor practice. None of the Sellers has any
         Knowledge of any organizational effort presently being made or
         threatened by or on behalf of any labor union with respect to employees
         (including leased employees) or contractors of the Company. The

         with respect to the Company. No petition seeking a determination of
         representation with respect to the Company has been filed with the
         National Labor Relations Board and no demand for recognition has been
         made regarding the Company or any of their respective facilities by any
         union, labor organization or other representative of the employees
         (including leased employees) or contractors of the Company. Since the
         enactment of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (the
         "WARN Act"), (i) the Company has not effected a "plant closing" (as
         defined in the WARN Act) affecting any site of employment or one or

         (as defined in the WARN Act) affecting any site of employment or
         facility of the Company, nor has the Company been affected by any
         transaction or engaged in layoffs or employment terminations sufficient
         in number to trigger application of any similar state, local or foreign
         law or regulation and (iii) none of the employees (including leased
         employees) or contractors of the Company has suffered any "employment
         loss" (as defined in the WARN Act) during the six-month period prior to
         the date of this Agreement.

                           (x)      Employee Benefits.

                                    (i)      Section 4(x) of the Disclosure
                  Schedule lists each Employee Benefit Plan that the Company

                  obligation to contribute and each Employee Benefit Plan that
                  at any time during the period commencing three calendar years
                  prior to the calendar year in which the Closing occurs, the
                  Company sponsored or maintained, or to which the Company
                  contributed or had any obligation to contribute.

                                    (A)      Each such Employee Benefit Plan
                           (and each related trust, insurance contract, or fund)
                           has been maintained, funded and administered in
                           accordance with the terms of such Employee Benefit
                           Plan and complies in form and in operation with the
                           applicable requirements of ERISA, the Code and other
                           applicable laws.

                           (including annual reports (IRS Form 5500), summary
                           annual reports, and summary plan descriptions) have

                           with respect to each such Employee Benefit Plan. The
                           requirements of COBRA have been met with respect to
                           each such Employee Benefit Plan which is an Employee

         operations for whom the Company has adopted the position that said

         Sellers, the Company has not received any written or oral notice that
         any customer or account of the Company that accounts for more than 1%
         of the gross revenues of the Company, (i) has ceased or cancelled or
         threatened to cease or cancel or indicated its intention to cease or
         cancel or

         terms of any contract with the Company or asserted a right to

         Schedule lists each bank account of the Company setting forth the name
         of the bank at which such account is held, the account number, the

                           (ee) No Additional Representations and Warranties.
         Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4 or any other provision of
         this Agreement, it is the explicit intent of each party to this
         Agreement that the Sellers are not making any representation or
         warranty whatsoever, express or implied, beyond those expressly made in
         this Agreement or any other documents or instruments executed in
         connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein.

                  5.       Post Closing Covenants. The Parties agree as follows
with respect to the period following the Closing.

                           (a)      General. In case at any time after the
         Closing any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of
         this Agreement, each of the Parties will take such further action
         (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and
         documents) as any other Party reasonably may request, all at the sole
         cost and expense of the requesting Party (unless the requesting Party
         is entitled to indemnification therefor under Section 7 below). The
         Sellers acknowledge and agree that from and after the Closing the Buyer
         will be entitled to possession of all documents, books, records
         (including tax records), agreements, and financial data of any sort
         relating to the Company. From and after the Closing, the Buyer shall
         afford to the Sellers, and their counsel, accountants and other
         authorized agents and representatives, during normal business hours,
         reasonable access to the employees, books, records and other data
         relating to the Company in its possession with respect to periods prior
         to the Closing, and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to
         the extent that such access may be reasonably required (i) to
         facilitate the investigation, litigation and final disposition of any
         claims which may have been or may be made against such parties or their
         Affiliates (except to the extent related to the transactions
         contemplated in this Agreement), (ii) for the preparation of Tax
         returns and audits or (iii) for any other reasonable business purpose;
         provided, however, Buyer shall be entitled to reimbursement of its
         reasonable expenses with respect to such access and such access shall
         be subject to Sellers entering into reasonable agreements with respect
         to the protection of any Confidential Information.

                                       31
<PAGE>

                           (b)      Litigation Support. In the event and for so
         long as any Party actively is contesting or defending against any
         action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint,
         claim, or demand in connection with (i) any transaction contemplated
         under this Agreement or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status,
         condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident,
         action, failure to act, or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date
         involving the Company, each of the other Parties will cooperate with
         him or it and his or its counsel in the contest or defense, make
         available their personnel, and provide such testimony and access to
         their books and records as shall be necessary in connection with the
         contest or defense, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting
         or defending Party (unless the contesting or defending Party is
         entitled to indemnification therefor under Section 7 below).

                           (c)      Transition. For a period of five years from
         and after the Closing Date, none of the Sellers will take any action
         that is designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging any
         lessor, licensor, customer, supplier, or other business associate of
         the Company from maintaining the same business relationships with the
         Company after the Closing as it maintained with the Company prior to
         the Closing.

                           (d)      Confidentiality. Each of the Sellers will
         treat as confidential all of the Confidential Information, refrain from
         using any of the Confidential Information except in connection with
         this Agreement, and deliver promptly to the Buyer or destroy, at the
         request and option of the Buyer, all tangible embodiments (and all
         copies) of the Confidential Information which are in his or its
         possession (including, without limitation, computer records and
         electronic files). In the event that any of the Sellers is requested or
         required (by oral question or request for information or documents in
         any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative
         demand, or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information,
         that Seller will notify the Buyer promptly of the request or
         requirement so that the Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order
         or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 5(d). If, in
         the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder,
         any of the Sellers is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose
         any Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for
         contempt, that Seller may disclose the Confidential Information to the
         tribunal; provided, however, that the disclosing Seller shall use his
         or its reasonable best efforts to obtain, at the reasonable request and
         the sole cost and expense of the Buyer, an order or other assurance
         that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the
         Confidential Information required to be disclosed as the Buyer shall
         designate.

                           (e)      Miscellaneous.

                                    (i)      The Buyer shall make available
                  health insurance coverage for each of James Clark, G.J.
                  DeYonge and Stuart Kutler and their spouses until such
                  individual reaches the age of 65. Such insurance coverage
                  shall be equivalent to the coverage provided by Buyer to its
                  executive officers during such period. Messrs. Clark, DeYonge
                  and Kutler shall be responsible for all of the costs, premiums
                  and Taxes associated with such insurance (which premiums shall
                  be 140% of the then current monthly COBRA rate applicable to
                  the Buyer's health insurance coverage). In the event any such
                  individual elects to

                                       32

                  discontinue such coverage for any reason all obligations of
                  the Buyer to offer coverage for such individual and his spouse
                  shall permanently cease.

                                    (ii)     The Company shall transfer title to
                  James Clark, G.J. DeYonge and Stuart Kutler for the three
                  automobiles used by those individuals prior to Closing. Each
                  of the transferees shall bear all cost and expense of these
                  transfers, including without limitation all Taxes incurred in
                  connection with these transfers. The vehicles will be valued
                  at their basis reflected on the Company's books and records as
                  of the Closing and these individuals shall report such amount
                  as ordinary income on their 2004 Income Tax Returns and the
                  Company will be entitled to a related deduction of the same
                  amount on its Income Tax Return for the current fiscal year.

                                    (iii)    The Company shall pay to each of
                  Stuart Kutler and G.J. DeYonge severance payments equal to one
                  year of their respective current annual base salary. These
                  payments shall be made in 12 equal monthly installments on the
                  last day of each of the first 12 full calendar months
                  following the Closing Date; provided, that, all obligations of
                  the Company under this part (iii) shall cease immediately and
                  automatically as to each such individual if such individual
                  breaches or threatens to breach the terms of Section 5(d) or
                  his Non-Compete Agreement or otherwise commits any act or
                  omission involving material dishonesty or fraud or
                  constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct, with
                  respect to the Company or Buyer or any of their respective
                  customers or suppliers.

                                    (iv)     For a period of 30 days following
                  the Closing, each of James Clark, G.J. DeYonge and Stuart
                  Kutler, will have the individual option, exercisable by
                  written notice to the Company within such 30-day period, to

                  each such policy shall be an amount equal to the cash
                  surrender value of the policy (noted above) payable in cash

                  policy. Each of the transferees shall bear all cost and
                  expense of these transfers, including without limitation all
                  Taxes incurred in connection with these transfers.

                  otherwise take any action or refrain from taking any action in
                  order to maintain each such policy in full force and effect.

                                    (v)      The Buyer will conduct a monthly
                  review with James Clark or G.J. DeYonge regarding cargo claims

                  Messrs. Clark or DeYonge (which approval will not be
                  unreasonably withheld). To the extent any such claims are the
                  financial responsibility of an insurance carrier the
                  procedures of the insurance carrier with respect to such
                  claims shall govern.

                           (f)      Payment of Indebtedness. The Buyer shall
         cause the Company to pay in full the Indebtedness of the Company listed

         Closing. The right to indemnification, liability for Adverse
         Consequences or other remedy based on such representations, warranties,
         covenants, and obligations will not be affected by any investigation

         being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and
         delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the
         accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation,
         warranty, covenant, or obligation.

                           (b)      Time Limitations. Sellers will have no
         liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any

         (Company Shares), 4(b)(Capitalization), 4(m) (Tax Matters), 4(x)
         (Employee Benefits) or 4(z) (Environmental Matters) unless on or before
         the second anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer notifies Sellers of a
         claim specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail
         to the extent then known by Buyer; a claim with respect to Sections
         3(a)(iv) (Company Shares), 4(b) (Capitalization), 4(m) (Tax Matters),
         4(x) (Employee Benefits) and 4(z) (Environmental Matters) may be made

         limitation; a claim based on fraud or a claim for indemnification or
         reimbursement not based upon any representation or warranty may be made
         at any time. Buyer will have no liability (for indemnification or
         otherwise) with respect to any representation or warranty unless on or
         before the second anniversary of the Closing Date Sellers notify Buyer
         of a claim specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable
         detail to the extent then known by Sellers.

         hold harmless the Buyer, the Company, and their respective officers,
         directors, owners, controlling persons, employees, agents and
         Affiliates (collectively, the "Indemnified Persons") for, and will pay
         to the Indemnified Persons the amount of, any Adverse Consequences,
         arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with:

                                    (i)      any breach of any representation or
                  warranty made by any Seller in this Agreement, the Disclosure

                  by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement;

                                    (ii)     any breach by any Seller of any
                  covenant or obligation of such Seller in this Agreement;

                                    (iii)    any obligation or liability of the
                  Company (A) for any Taxes of the Company with respect to any
                  Tax year or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing
                  Date (or for any Tax year beginning before and ending after
                  the Closing Date to the extent allocable to the portion of

                  beginning before and ending on the Closing Date), to the
                  extent such Taxes are not reflected in the reserve for any
                  liability for Taxes (rather than any reserve for deferred
                  Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book
                  and Tax income) shown on the face of the Most Recent Balance
                  Sheet (rather than in any notes thereto), as such reserve is
                  adjusted for the passage of time through the Closing Date in
                  accordance with the past custom and practice of the Company in
                  filing its Tax Returns and (B) for the unpaid taxes of any
                  Person (other than the Company) under Reg. Section 1.1502-6

                  Employee Stock Ownership Plan & Trust. Without limiting the
                  generality of the foregoing, indemnified losses shall include

                  limitation, any matters set forth on Section 4(v) of the
                  Disclosure Schedule); provided, that, for purposes of
                  calculating the monetary amount of Adverse Consequences for
                  which an indemnification claim may be made under this Section
                  7(c)(v), such monetary amount shall be limited to the amount
                  of Adverse Consequences arising from these matters over the
                  aggregate amount of both the aggregate reserves for claims for

                  involving the Company arising, directly or indirectly, from
                  any act, omission or occurrence on or prior to the Closing
                  Date, including any claims for workers' compensation, for
                  breach of contract, or any claims in the nature of employment

                  which an indemnification claim concerning workers'
                  compensation matters may be made under this Section 7(c)(vi),
                  such monetary amount shall be limited to the amount of Adverse
                  Consequences arising from claims concerning workers'
                  compensation matters over the aggregate amount of both the
                  aggregate reserves for claims concerning workers' compensation

                  7(c)(vii), such monetary amount shall be limited to the amount
                  of Adverse Consequences arising from these matters over the

                  against any prior owner or operator of the Environmental

                  if the indemnifying party shall have paid the same or all of
                  the amount of a payment to the indemnified party prior to the
                  recovery of such an amount by the indemnified party, the

                  indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall promptly take
                  all actions, at the sole cost and expense of the indemnifying
                  party, including costs arising from any such claim, reasonably
                  necessary to seek any such insurance proceeds (and in the case
                  of any claim made as a result of a breach of the
                  representations and warranties contained in Section 4(z),
                  prosecute claims against prior owners or operators of
                  Environmental Property that is the subject of such claim) to
                  the extent reasonably available to the indemnified party.

                                    (ii)     The Sellers will have no liability
                  (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the matters
                  described in Section 7(c)(i) unless (A) the amount of Adverse
                  Consequences claimed by an Indemnified Person hereunder for
                  the particular matter described in Section 7(c)(i) exceeds
                  $5,000 (a "Covered Breach"), and (B) the total of all Adverse
                  Consequences with respect to all matters described in Section
                  7(c)(i), regardless of whether such Adverse Consequences arise
                  from a Covered Breach or not, exceeds $200,000 (the "Basket"),
                  in which case the Sellers shall be liable for all Adverse
                  Consequences in excess of the Basket. However, the limitations
                  on indemnity obligations contained in this Section 7(e)(ii)
                  will not apply to any breach of any representations and
                  warranties made in Sections 3(a)(iv) (Company Shares),
                  4(b)(Capitalization), 4(i)(xiii), (xv), (xvii) and (xviii)
                  (Events Subsequent to October 1, 2003), 4(m) (Tax Matters),
                  4(x) (Employee Benefits), 4(z) (Environmental Matters), the

                                    (iii)    If a breach or breaches of Section
                  4 would, had the subject matter of such breach or breaches
                  been properly reflected on the Most Recent Financial
                  Statements in accordance with GAAP (as applied by the Company
                  for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2003), cause the
                  amount of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
                  depreciation and amortization) of the Company for the 12
                  months ending December 31, 2003 to be less than the amount of
                  EBITDA as determined from the Most Recent Financial Statements
                  or if it is determined that the Most Recent Financial
                  Statements constitute a breach of Section 4(g) (in any such
                  case, an "EBITDA Reduction Claim"), and if the aggregate
                  reduction in EBITDA as a result of all EBITDA Reduction Claims
                  (after considering any increases in such EBITDA that are
                  previously identified) exceeds $250,000 (the "EBITDA Claim
                  Basket"), Sellers shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the
                  amount by which the aggregate reduction in EBITDA as a result
                  of EBITDA Reduction Claims exceeds the EBITDA Claims Basket
                  multiplied by 4.2. Sellers liability shall be reduced by the
                  amounts previously paid to the Indemnified Persons under
                  Section 7(e)(ii) for any Adverse Consequences arising from the
                  subject matter of such breach. The determination of whether a
                  particular breach of Section 4 causes or would if accounted
                  for as provided above cause, a reduction in EBITDA for the
                  fiscal year ending December 31, 2003 shall be submitted to and
                  determined by Lutz & Co. for determination, in its sole and
                  absolute discretion (absent manifest error).

                                    (iv)     Buyer will have no liability (for
                  indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the matters
                  described in Section 7(d)(i) unless (A) such matter
                  constitutes a Covered Breach, and (B) the total of all Adverse
                  Consequences with respect to all matters described in Section
                  7(d)(i), regardless of whether such Adverse Consequences arise
                  from a Covered Breach or not, exceeds the Basket, in which
                  case the Buyer shall be liable for all Adverse Consequences in
                  excess of the Basket. However, the limitations on indemnity
                  obligations contained in this Section 7(e)(iv) will not apply
                  to any breach of any representations and warranties made in
                  Section 3(b)(ii) (Authorization of Transaction).

                                    (v)      In no event shall the obligation of
                  the Sellers to indemnify the Indemnified Persons under Section
                  7(c)(i) exceed the aggregate sum of $5,000,000, except this
                  restriction shall not apply to claims for any breach of
                  Sections 3(a)(iv) (Company Shares), 4(b)(Capitalization),
                  4(i)(xiii), (xv), (xvii) and (xviii) (Events Subsequent to
                  October 1, 2003), 4(m) (Tax Matters), 4(x) (Employee
                  Benefits), 4(z) (Environmental Matters), the last sentence of
                  4(aa) (Certain Business Relationships With the Company), 5(g)

                                    (vi)     In no event shall the obligation of
                  the Buyer to indemnify the Sellers under Section 7(d)(i)
                  exceed the aggregate sum of $5,000,000, except this
                  restriction shall not apply to claims for any breach of
                  Section 3(b)(ii) (Authorization of Transaction).

                                    (vii)    In addition, to the extent an
                  indemnification claim arises hereunder as a result of a third
                  party claim against an indemnified party, the Adverse
                  Consequences shall be deemed to include incidental,
                  consequential, special, enhanced and punitive damages to the
                  extent claimed by a third party against an indemnified party.

                           (f)      Right to Set off; Escrow. Upon notice to
         Sellers specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such set off,
         Buyer may set off (or cause to be set off) any amount to which Buyer,
         the Company or any other Indemnified Person may be entitled under
         Section 7 against amounts otherwise payable under this Agreement, the
         note described in Section 2(b)(ii) and any lease (or option to
         purchase) between the Company (or the Buyer or any successor or assign
         of the Company or Buyer) and any Affiliate of any of the Sellers
         (including the lease agreements (with options to purchase) described in
         Section 6(a)(v) above); provided, that, the set off right under the
         note described in Section 2(b)(ii) shall be limited to amounts to which
         Buyer, the Company or other Indemnified Persons may be entitled
         pursuant to an indemnification claim made pursuant to Section 7(c)(iv).
         Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Buyer may only exercise the set
         off rights pursuant to this Section 7(f) with respect to amounts
         otherwise payable under this Agreement or any lease (or option to
         purchase) between the Company (or the Buyer or any successor or assign
         of the Company or Buyer) and any Affiliate of any of the Sellers
         (including the lease agreements (with options to purchase) described in
         Section 6(a)(v) above) if the amount sought, together with all other
         claims previously made exceed the amount then held in escrow; provided,
         in no event will the restriction in this sentence be deemed to apply to
         set offs against the note referred to in Section 2(b)(ii). The exercise
         of such right of set off by Buyer in good faith, whether or not
         ultimately determined to be justified, will not constitute an event of
         default under this Agreement or any other document contemplated herein.
         Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise such right of set
         off or to make a claim against the escrow will constitute an election
         of remedies or limit Buyer, the Company and other Indemnified Persons
         in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be
         available to any of them. Sellers agree to execute all instructions to
         the Escrow Agent and other documents required by the Escrow Agent in
         order to release funds held by the Escrow Agent to satisfy Sellers'
         indemnity obligations under Section 7 promptly after Sellers either
         agree to the validity of such claim or a final nonappealable order is
         issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or pursuant to binding
         arbitration. Buyer's exercise of set off rights or rights to amounts
         held under the Escrow Agreement may be made without regard to the
         several nature of the liability of certain Sellers under this
         Agreement.

                           (g)      Matters Involving Third Parties.

                                    (i)      Promptly after receipt by an
                  indemnified party under Sections 7(c) or 7(d) above of notice
                  of the commencement of any matter which may give rise to a
                  claim against an indemnified party, such indemnified party
                  will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party
                  under such Section, give notice to the indemnifying party of
                  the commencement of such claim, but the failure to notify the
                  indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of
                  any liability that it may have to any indemnified party,
                  except to the extent that

                                       42
<PAGE>

                  the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of the
                  matter giving rise to the indemnified party's claim is
                  prejudiced by the indemnifying party's failure to give such
                  notice.

                                    (ii)     If any proceeding resulting from
                  the matters referred to in Sections 7(c) or (d) above is
                  brought against an indemnified party and it gives notice to
                  the indemnifying party of the commencement of such proceeding,
                  the indemnifying party will, unless the claim involves Taxes,
                  be entitled to participate in such proceeding and, to the
                  extent that it wishes (unless (A) the indemnifying party is
                  also a party to such proceeding and the indemnified party
                  determines in good faith that joint representation would be
                  inappropriate, or (B) the indemnifying party fails to provide
                  reasonable assurance to the indemnified party of its financial
                  capacity to defend such proceeding and provide indemnification
                  with respect to such proceeding), to assume the defense of
                  such proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
                  indemnified party (it being agreed that Koley Jessen P.C. and
                  Bryan Cave LLP are each considered satisfactory for these
                  purposes) and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the
                  indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of
                  such proceeding, the indemnifying party will not, as long as
                  it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the
                  indemnified party under Section 7 for any fees of other
                  counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of
                  such proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the
                  indemnified party in connection with the defense of such
                  proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If
                  the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a proceeding, no
                  compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the
                  indemnifying party without the indemnified party's consent
                  unless (1) there is no finding or admission of any violation
                  of applicable laws (including rules, regulations, codes,
                  plans, injunctions, judgments, orders, decrees, rulings, and
                  charges thereunder) of any federal, state, local or foreign
                  governments (and all agencies thereof) or any violation of the
                  rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that
                  may be made against the indemnified party, (2) the sole relief
                  provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the
                  indemnifying party and (3) the indemnified party will have no
                  liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such
                  claims. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the
                  commencement of any proceeding and the indemnifying party does
                  not, within 10 days after the indemnified party's notice is
                  given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to
                  assume the defense of such proceeding, the indemnifying party
                  will be bound by any determination made in such proceeding or
                  any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified
                  party.

                                    (iii)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
                  an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a
                  reasonable probability that a proceeding may adversely affect
                  it or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary
                  damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification
                  under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to
                  the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend,
                  compromise, or settle such proceeding, but the indemnifying
                  party will not be bound by any determination of a proceeding
                  so

                                       43
<PAGE>

                  defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its
                  consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

                                    (iv)     Sellers and Buyer hereby consent to
                  the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a
                  proceeding is brought against any indemnified party for
                  purposes of any claim that an indemnified party may have under
                  this Agreement with respect to such proceeding or the matters
                  alleged therein, and agree that process may be served on
                  Sellers with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.

                           (h)      Other Indemnification Provisions. Each of
         the Sellers hereby agrees that he or it will not make any claim for
         indemnification against the Company by reason of the fact that he or it
         was a director, officer, employee, contractor or agent of the Company
         or was serving at the request of the Company as a partner, trustee,
         director, officer, employee, contractor, fiduciary or agent of another
         entity (whether such claim is for judgments, damages, penalties, fines,
         costs, amounts paid in settlement, losses, expenses, or otherwise and
         whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, charter document, bylaw,
         agreement, or otherwise). This prohibition shall not apply to any
         rights a Seller may have to seek indemnification from the Company under
         the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, both as in
         effect on the date hereof, with respect to any threatened, pending or
         completed action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the
         right of the Company) not known as of the date hereof by any such
         Seller or the Company, against such Seller in his or her capacity as an
         officer, director or employee of the Company by reason of the fact that
         such Seller was an officer, director or employee of the Company if such
         Seller acted in good faith in a manner he or she reasonably believed to
         be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; provided,
         that, no such Seller shall have any right to seek indemnification from
         the Company (or its successors) if the existence or assertion of such
         indemnification claim (or the matter giving rise to any such Seller's
         assertion of such indemnification claim) would constitute a breach of a
         representation or warranty made by any Seller in this Agreement or if
         such Seller is obligated to indemnify Buyer against such
         indemnification claim (or the matter giving rise to such Seller's
         assertion of such indemnification claim) pursuant to this Agreement.

                  8.       Tax Matters. The following provisions shall govern
the allocation of responsibility as between Buyer and Sellers for certain Tax
matters following the Closing Date:

                           (a)      Tax Filings. Sellers shall prepare or cause
         to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the
         Company for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date which
         are filed after the Closing Date. Sellers shall permit Buyer to review
         and comment on each such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence
         prior to filing and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as
         are reasonably requested by Buyer. To the extent permitted by
         applicable law, Sellers shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction
         or other tax items for such periods on their Tax Returns in a manner
         consistent with the Schedule K-1s prepared for such periods. Sellers
         shall be liable for and pay any Taxes of the Company with respect to
         such periods.

                                       44

                           (b)      Section 338(h)(10) Election. The Company and
         each of the Sellers will join with the Buyer in making an election
         under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code in connection with the purchase of
         the Company Shares hereunder (and any corresponding elections under
         state, local, or foreign tax law) (collectively a "Section 338(h)(10)
         Election"). Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or
         cause to be filed the Section 338(h)(10)) Election. Buyer shall permit
         Sellers to review and comment on the Section 338(h)(10) Election prior
         to filing and shall make such revisions to the Section 338(h)(10)
         Election as are reasonably requested by Sellers. Sellers will include
         any income, gain, loss, deduction, or other tax item resulting from the
         Section 338(h)(10) Election on their Tax Returns to the extent required
         by applicable law.

                                    (i)      Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up.
                  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
                  Buyer shall be responsible for an amount equal to: (i) the
                  excess of (A) the amount of Taxes actually payable by the
                  Sellers (net of any Tax benefits received by the Sellers) as a
                  result of the sale by the Sellers to the Buyer of the Company
                  Shares (the "S Corporation Sale") and the making by the Buyer
                  and the Sellers of the Section 338(h)(10) Election, over (B)
                  the amount of Taxes that would have been payable by the
                  Sellers as a result of the S Corporation Sale had the Section
                  338(h)(10) Election not been made; divided by (ii) 80.4%;
                  provided, however, that the Buyer shall not have any
                  obligation with respect to any portion of such excess that
                  results from the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or
                  warranty of the Sellers made in Sections 3(a) or 4 of this
                  Agreement or from the application of Section 1374 of the Code
                  to the extent the amount of built in gains exceeds $5,747,961
                  as of December 31, 2003. The amount for which the Buyer is
                  responsible shall be referred to as the "Section 338(h)(10)
                  Gross-Up". Buyer shall pay the Sellers $2,500,000 on the
                  Closing Date to be applied against the Section 338(h)(10)
                  Gross-Up.

                                    (ii)     Preparation of Tax Returns and
                  Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up Computation. No later than April
                  1, 2004, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer (A) all Tax Returns
                  for the Company for all periods ending on or prior to the
                  Closing Date, (B) a detailed reconciliation showing (a) the
                  final computation of the Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up, and (b)
                  the amount of cash that is to be exchanged between Buyer and
                  Sellers in settlement of the Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up, and
                  (C) all supporting schedules.

                                    (iii)    Review of Section 338(h)(10)
                  Gross-Up. Buyer shall have 30 days to review the final
                  computation of the Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up, and the amount
                  of cash that is to be exchanged between Buyer and Sellers in
                  settlement of the Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up. If within 30
                  days of receiving the computation of the Section 338(h)(10)
                  Gross-Up pursuant to Section 8(b)(ii) hereof, Buyer provides
                  written notice to Sellers that it disagrees with any item
                  reflected in the Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up computation or
                  the amount of cash that is to be exchanged between Buyer and
                  Sellers in settlement of the Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up, the
                  parties shall in good faith confer with each other to resolve
                  any such disagreement. The failure of Buyer to provide the
                  notice described in the preceding sentence within the 30 day
                  period specified shall be

                                       45
<PAGE>

                  deemed to indicate that Buyer agrees with the Section
                  338(h)(10) Gross-Up computation. If within 10 days of receipt
                  by Sellers of the notice from Buyer described in Section
                  8(b)(iii), any disputed item remains unresolved, the parties
                  will have another 10 days to retain an Independent Third Party
                  to resolve any such dispute whose decision will be binding on
                  both parties.

                                    (iv)     Payment Procedures. Once the
                  parties have agreed on, or the Independent Third Party has
                  resolved any disputed items with respect to, the Section
                  338(h)(10) Gross-Up described in Section 8(b)(i), any amount
                  required to be paid pursuant to the Section 338(h)(10)
                  Gross-Up, less all payments already made pursuant to Section
                  8(b)(i), shall be paid within 10 days of the agreement on or
                  resolution of such documents.

                           (c)      Allocation of Purchase Price. (d) Buyer, the
         Company and Sellers agree that the Purchase Price, the Section
         338(h)(10) Gross-Up and the liabilities of the Company (plus other
         relevant items) will be allocated to the assets of the Company for all
         purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) as follows: the
         Purchase Price, the Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up and the liabilities of
         the Company (plus other relevant items) will be allocated in a manner
         consistent with Code Section 338 and the regulations thereunder; the
         fair market value of the real property will be based on fair market
         value appraisals performed by Burr & Tempkin dated August 23, 2003; the
         fair market value of the revenue equipment and all other fixed assets
         will be based on net book value of assets at January 31, 2004 adjusted
         to the extent necessary for any purchases, sales and depreciation from
         January 31, 2004 through the Closing Date; the allocation to all other
         current assets and liabilities will be based on the applicable book
         value of the current assets and liabilities at January 31, 2004,
         adjusted to the extent necessary for any income or loss from January
         31, 2004 through the Closing Date; and any remaining Purchase Price
         including Section 338(h)(10) Gross-Up not allocable to tangible assets
         of the Company will be allocated to any identifiable intangible assets
         and goodwill. Buyer will provide to Sellers on or before March 22, 2004
         the final allocation per the agreement set forth in the previous
         sentence. Buyer, the Company and the Sellers will file all Tax Returns
         (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information
         reports in a manner consistent with such allocation.

                           (d)      S Corporation Status. Other than entering
         into the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Company and
         Sellers will not revoke the Company's election to be taxed as an S
         corporation within the meaning of Code Sections 1361 and 1362. The
         Company and Sellers will not take or allow any action that would result
         in the termination of the Company's status as a validly elected S
         corporation within the meaning of Code Sections 1361 and 1362.

                           (e)      Cooperation on Tax Matters.

                                    (i)      Buyer and Sellers shall, and Buyer
                  shall cause the Company to, cooperate fully, as and to the
                  extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection
                  with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section and
                  any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to
                  Taxes. Such

                                       46
<PAGE>

                  cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other
                  party's request) the provision of records and information
                  which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or
                  other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually
                  convenient basis to provide additional information and
                  explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Buyer
                  shall cause the Company (A) to retain all books and records
                  with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating
                  to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until
                  the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the
                  extent notified by Buyer or Sellers, any extensions thereof)
                  of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record
                  retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority,
                  and (B) to give the Sellers reasonable written notice prior to
                  transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and
                  records and, if the Sellers so request, the Buyer shall cause
                  the Company to allow the Sellers to take possession of such
                  books and records.

                                    (ii)     Buyer and Sellers further agree,
                  upon request, to provide one another with all information that
                  any of them may be required to report pursuant to Section 6043
                  of the Code and all Treasury Department Regulations
                  promulgated thereunder.

                           (f)      Tax Sharing Agreements. All tax sharing
         agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving the
         Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the
         Closing Date, the Company shall not be bound thereby or have any
         liability thereunder.

                           (g)      Certain Taxes and Fees. All transfer,
         documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and
         all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges
         (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the
         consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be
         the responsibility of the Sellers.

                  9.       Miscellaneous.

                           (a)      Nature of Certain Obligations. The
         representations, warranties, and covenants of Sellers in this Agreement
         are several and not joint obligations among each of the Sellers other
         than James Clark and Janice Clark. This means that each Seller other
         than James Clark and Janice Clark will be responsible to the extent
         provided in Section 7 above for only a proportionate amount of any
         Adverse Consequences the Buyer may suffer as a result of any breach
         thereof which proportionate amount shall be calculated on a pro rata
         basis with respect to the percentage of Company Shares owned by the
         Sellers. The representations, warranties, and covenants of Sellers in
         this Agreement are joint and several obligations with respect to James
         Clark and Janice Clark. This means that each of James Clark and Janice
         Clark will be responsible to the extent provided in Section 7 above for
         the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Buyer may suffer as a
         result of any breach thereof.

                           (b)      Press Releases and Public Announcements. No
         Party shall issue any

                                       47
<PAGE>

         press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject
         matter of this Agreement prior to the Closing without the prior written
         approval of the Buyer and the Sellers; provided, however, that Buyer
         may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by
         applicable law or any listing or trading agreement concerning its
         publicly traded securities (or that of its parent) (in which case the
         Buyer will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to advise James
         D. Clark prior to making the disclosure).

                           (c)      No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement
         shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the
         Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

                           (d)      Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including
         the documents referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement
         among the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements,
         or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, to the
         extent they related in any way to the subject matter hereof.

                           (e)      Succession and Assignment. This Agreement
         shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties named
         herein and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party
         may assign either this Agreement or any of his or its rights,
         interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval
         of the Buyer and the Sellers; provided, however, that the Buyer may (i)
         assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one or more
         of its Affiliates, (ii) designate one or more of its Affiliates to
         perform its obligations hereunder and (iii) assign any or all of its
         rights and interests hereunder to any of its lenders or otherwise in
         connection with a sale of substantially all of the assets of the
         Company (in any or all of which cases (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the
         Buyer nonetheless shall remain responsible for the performance of all
         of its obligations hereunder).

                           (f)      Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed
         in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original
         but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

                           (g)      Headings. The section headings contained in
         this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect
         in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

                           (h)      Notices. All notices, requests, demands,
         claims, and other communications hereunder will be in writing. Any
         notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder shall
         be deemed duly given if (and then two business days after) it is sent
         by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage
         prepaid, and addressed to the intended recipient as set forth below:

                                                   Attention:  Robert M. Barnes

Any Party may send any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication
hereunder to the intended recipient at the address set forth above using any
other means (including personal delivery, expedited courier, messenger service,
telecopy, telex, ordinary mail, or electronic mail), but no such notice,

                           (i)      Governing Law. This Agreement shall be
         governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the
         State of Nebraska without giving effect to any choice or conflict of
         law provision or rule (whether of the State of Nebraska or any other
         jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any
         jurisdiction other than the State of Nebraska.

                           (j)      Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any
         provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in
         writing and signed by the Buyer and the Sellers. No waiver by any Party
         of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant
         hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any
         prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty
         or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue
         of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

                           (k)      Equitable Modification. Whenever possible,
         each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as
         to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of
         this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid or unenforceable
         under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the
         extent of such prohibition or invalidity or unenforceability, without
         invalidating the remainder of this Agreement, and shall be reformed and
         enforced to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law.

                           (l)      Expenses. The Buyer will bear its own costs
         and expenses

                                       49
<PAGE>

         (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this
         Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Sellers represent
         and warrant that attached as Schedule 9(l) is a true and correct list
         of all invoices for costs and expenses of the Sellers or the Company
         (and their respective Affiliates) (including legal fees and expenses)
         in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby that have on or
         before the date hereof been paid by the Company or received by the
         Company. Except with respect to the invoices listed on Schedule 9(l),
         the Sellers will bear the cost and expenses of the Company and Sellers
         (and their respective Affiliates) (including legal fees and expenses)
         in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

                           (m)      Construction. The Parties have participated
         jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event
         an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this
         Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and
         no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring
         any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this
         Agreement. 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. The word "including" shall mean including without
         limitation. Reference to any gender includes each other gender, the
         masculine, the feminine and neuter. The Parties intend that each
         representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have
         independent significance, provided, however, in no event shall any
         Party incur duplicate liability for the same Adverse Consequences by
         reason of the facts that the same result from the breach of more than
         one representation, warranty or covenant. If any Party has breached any
         representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect,
         the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or
         covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the
         relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall
         not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of
         the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

                           (n)      Incorporation of Exhibits, Annexes, and
         Schedules. The Exhibits, Annexes, and Schedules identified in this
         Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

                           (o)      Specific Performance. Each of the Parties
         acknowledges and agrees that the other Parties would be damaged
         irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are
         not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are
         breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that the other
         Parties shall be entitled to temporary, preliminary and permanent
         injunctive relief to prevent any breach or threatened breach of the
         provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement
         and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any
         court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction
         over the Parties and the matter (subject to the provisions set forth in
         Section 9(p) below), in addition to any other remedy to which they may
         be entitled, at law or in equity.

                           (p)      Submission to Jurisdiction. Subject
         to Section 9(q), each of the Parties submits to the exclusive venue and
         jurisdiction of any federal court sitting in Omaha, Nebraska, in any
         action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and

                                       50
<PAGE>

         agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be
         heard and determined exclusively in any such court. Each Party also
         agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating
         to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the Parties waives any
         defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or
         proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security
         that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Any
         Party may make service on any other Party by sending or delivering a
         copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the
         manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 9(h) above.
         Nothing in this Section 9(p), however, shall affect the right of any
         Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or at
         equity.

                           (q)      Arbitration. Except for disputes,
         controversies, or claims arising under Section 2, 5(b), 5(c), 5(d) or
         9(p) above, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising under or
         relating to this Agreement or any breach or threatened breach thereof
         ("Arbitrable Dispute") shall be resolved by final and binding
         arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association
         ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, subject to the
         following:

                                    (i)      Any Party may demand that any
                  Arbitrable Dispute be submitted to binding arbitration. The
                  demand for arbitration shall be in writing, shall be served on
                  the other party in the manner prescribed herein for the giving
                  of notices, and shall set forth a short statement of the
                  factual basis for the claim, specifying the matter or matters
                  to be arbitrated.

                                    (ii)     The arbitration shall be conducted
                  by a panel of three arbitrators, one selected by Buyer, one
                  selected by Sellers and the third to be selected jointly by
                  the arbitrators selected by Buyer and Sellers (collectively,
                  the "Arbitrators") who shall conduct such evidentiary or other
                  hearings as they deem necessary or appropriate and thereafter
                  shall make their determination as soon as practicable. Any
                  arbitration pursuant hereto shall be conducted by the
                  Arbitrators under the guidance of the Federal Rules of Civil
                  Procedure and the Federal Rules of Evidence, but the
                  Arbitrators shall not be required to comply strictly with such
                  Rules in conducting any such arbitration. All such arbitration
                  proceedings shall take place in Des Moines, Iowa.

                                    (iii)    Except as provided herein
                  (including pursuant to Section 7 to the extent such items
                  constitute Adverse Consequences):

                                    (A)      each party shall bear its own
                           "Costs and Fees," which are defined as all reasonable
                           pre-award expenses of the arbitration, including
                           travel expenses, out-of-pocket expenses (including,
                           but not limited to, copying and telephone) witness
                           fees, and reasonable attorney's fees and expenses;

                                    (B)      the fees and expenses of the
                           Arbitrators and all other costs and expenses incurred
                           in connection with the arbitration ("Arbitration
                           Expenses") shall be borne equally by the parties
                           thereto; and

                                       51
<PAGE>

                                    (C)      notwithstanding the foregoing, the
                           Arbitrators shall be empowered to require any one or
                           more of the parties thereto to bear all or any
                           portion of such Costs and Fees and/or the Arbitration
                           Expenses in the event that the Arbitrators determine
                           such party has acted unreasonably or in bad faith.

                                    (iv)     The Arbitrators shall have the
                  authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of the
                  State of Nebraska could order or grant, including, without
                  limitation, specific performance of any obligation created
                  under this Agreement, the awarding of amounts in respect of
                  Adverse Consequences and punitive damages, the issuance of
                  temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, or the
                  imposition of sanctions for abuse or frustration of the
                  arbitration process. The Arbitrators shall render their
                  decision and award upon the concurrence of at least two of
                  their number. Such decision and award shall be in writing and
                  counterpart copies thereof shall be delivered to each party
                  hereto. The decision and award of the Arbitrators shall be
                  binding on all parties hereto. In rendering such decision and
                  award, the Arbitrators shall not add to, subtract from or
                  otherwise modify the provisions of this Agreement, except as
                  provided in Section 9(k) above and shall make its
                  determinations in accordance therewith. Any party to the
                  arbitration may seek to have judgment upon the award rendered
                  by the Arbitrators entered in any court described in Section
                  9(p) above having jurisdiction thereof.

                                    (v)      Each of the Parties agrees that it
                  will not file any suit, motion, petition or otherwise commence
                  any legal action or proceeding for any matter which is
                  required to be submitted to arbitration as contemplated herein
                  except in connection with the enforcement of an award rendered
                  by the Arbitrators. Upon the entry of an order dismissing or
                  staying any action or proceeding filed contrary to the
                  preceding sentence, the Party which filed such action or
                  proceeding shall promptly pay to the other Party the
                  attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred by such other
                  Party prior to the entry of such order and shall be liable for
                  such fees, costs and expenses of any subsequent appeals.

                           (r)      Appointment of Sellers' Representative.

                                    (i)      Sellers hereby appoint James D.
                  Clark as their representative, to be their true and lawful
                  attorney-in-fact for all matters in connection with this
                  Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the promissory note
                  described in Section 2(b)(ii) (the "Subject Documents"),
                  including without limitation the acceptance of any claim by
                  Buyer, and the compromise of any disputes between Buyer and
                  Sellers relating to any Subject Document. The power of
                  attorney granted to the Sellers' representative appointed
                  hereunder is coupled with an interest and will continue in
                  full force and effect notwithstanding the subsequent death or
                  incapacity of a Seller. The representative appointed hereunder
                  will act on behalf of Sellers with respect to all matters
                  requiring action by Sellers under the Subject Documents. Mr.
                  Clark hereby accepts such appointment. In the event of the
                  incapacity of Mr. Clark, a successor representative for
                  Sellers will be

                                       52
<PAGE>

                  appointed by the holders or former holders of a majority of
                  the Company Shares.

                                    (ii)     The Sellers' representative
                  appointed hereunder shall take all actions required to be
                  taken by Sellers under the Subject Documents and may take any
                  action contemplated by the Subject Documents.

                                    (iii)    In the event that Buyer gives
                  notice to the Sellers' representative appointed hereunder of a
                  claim for which indemnification may be sought, the Sellers'
                  representative shall have the authority to determine, in his
                  or her sole judgment, whether to retain counsel (and to select
                  that counsel) to protect Sellers' interests, whether to assume
                  the defense of or otherwise to control the handling of the
                  claim, whether to consent to indemnification and to make all
                  other decisions required to be made by Sellers pursuant to the
                  Subject Documents, including without limitation whether to
                  consent or withhold his or her consent to any settlement or
                  compromise of a claim.

                                    (iv)     The Sellers' representative
                  appointed hereunder shall not be liable to any Seller for any
                  act or omission taken pursuant to or in conjunction with the
                  Subject Documents, except for his or her own gross negligence
                  or willful misconduct. Sellers shall indemnify and hold the
                  Sellers' representative, and each successor thereof, harmless
                  from any and all liability and expenses (including, without
                  limitation, counsel fees) which may arise out of any action
                  taken or omitted by him or her as Sellers' representative in
                  accordance with the Subject Documents, as the same may be
                  amended, modified or supplemented, except such liability and
                  expense as may result from the gross negligence or willful
                  misconduct of the Sellers' representative.

                                    (v)      The Sellers' representative
                  appointed hereunder agrees that within a reasonable time after
                  receipt of notice of a claim, he or she shall give each Seller
                  notice of same and shall from time to time keep Sellers
                  apprised as to developments with respect to such claim. Such
                  notices shall be sent to Sellers at his or her addresses as
                  may be communicated to the Sellers' representative in writing
                  by Sellers.

                                    (vi)     Any action taken by the Sellers'
                  representative appointed hereunder may be considered by Buyer
                  to be the action of Sellers for whom such action was taken for
                  all purposes of the Subject Documents.
