                          SECOND BANCORP, INCORPORATED
                      1998 NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN

      Second Bancorp, Incorporated (the "Company") hereby establishes this Plan
to be called the Second Bancorp, Incorporated 1998 Non-Qualified Stock Option
Plan to encourage officers, certain key employees and non-employee Directors of
the Company and subsidiary The Second National Bank of Warren (the "Subsidiary")
to acquire common Stock of the Company pursuant to the grant of Non-Qualified
Stock Options. The purpose of the Plan is to (a) provide incentive to officers,
key employees, and non-employee Directors of the Company and its Subsidiary to
stimulate their efforts toward the continued success of the Company and its
Subsidiary and to operate and manage the business in a manner that will provide
for the long-term growth and profitability of the Company and its Subsidiary;
(b) encourage stock ownership by officers, key employees, and non-employee
Directors by providing them with a means to acquire a proprietary interest in
the Company by acquiring shares of Stock; and (c) provide a means of attracting,
retaining, and rewarding key employees and non-employee Directors.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any reference in this
1998 Plan to "non-employee Directors" shall be deemed to exclude members of any
Advisory Board of Directors of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

      If approved, this Plan shall replace the amended Second Bancorp,
Incorporated Stock Option Incentive Plan approved and adopted by the
shareholders in 1994 (the "1994 Plan"). As such, there shall be no further
grants pursuant to the 1994 Plan, and all authorized but unissued shares for
which options may be granted shall no longer be subject to issuance. Nothing in
this Plan, however, shall effect, in any way, awards previously granted pursuant
to the 1994 Plan, and the 1994 Plan shall continue to control with respect to
such previously granted options.

                             SECTION 2 GENERAL TERMS

         2.1  SHARES AVAILABLE FOR ISSUANCE. Subject to adjustment in accordance
with Section 4.2, 650,000 shares of Stock (the "Maximum Plan Shares") are hereby
reserved and subject to issuance under the Plan. At no time shall the Company
have outstanding Awards and shares of Stock issued in respect to Awards in
excess of the Maximum Plan Shares. To the extent permitted by law, the shares of
Stock attributable to the nonvested, unpaid, unexercised, unconverted or
otherwise unsettled portion of any Award that are forfeited, canceled or expire
or terminate for any reason without becoming vested, paid, exercised, converted
or otherwise settled in full shall again be available for purposes of the Plan.

         2.2  ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN. The Plan shall be administered by the
Committee. The Committee shall have full authority in its discretion to
determine the officers and key employees of the Company or its Subsidiary to
whom Awards shall be granted, subject to the Plan. Subject to the provisions of
the Plan, the Committee shall have full and conclusive authority to interpret
the terms and provisions of the Plan; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and
regulations relating to the Plan; to determine the terms and provisions of the
respective Option Agreements under the Plan, and to make all other
determinations

                                       3
<PAGE>   6

necessary or advisable for the proper administration of the Plan. The
Committee's determination under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by
it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards
under the Plan (whether or not such persons are similarly situated). The
Committee's decisions shall be final and binding on all Participants. The
Committee may employ attorneys, consultants, accountants or other persons, and
the Committee may rely on the advice and opinion of such persons. No member of
the Committee shall be personally liable for any determination, interpretation,
or action taken in good faith with respect to this Plan.

         Notwithstanding the above, with respect to non-employee Directors, the
Committee shall have no discretion to select which non-employee Directors will
be granted Options hereunder, to determine the number of shares for which
Options may be exercised, to determine the exercise price of the Option, or the
timing of an Award.

         2.3  ELIGIBILITY AND LIMITS. Participants in the Plan shall be selected
by the Committee from among those officers and key employees of the Company or
its Subsidiaries who, in the opinion of the Committee, are in a position to
contribute materially to the Company's continued growth and development and to
its long-term financial success. In addition, any non-employee Director of the
Company or its Subsidiaries shall be eligible upon election to the Board of the
Company or its Subsidiaries and on the date of any subsequent Annual Meeting of
the shareholders of the Company if still serving as a Director of the Company or
its Subsidiaries. No employee Participant shall receive Awards which in total
shall be for more than 10,000 shares of Stock in any Plan Year. Notwithstanding
Section 3.1(a) below, no non-employee Director Participant shall receive in the
aggregate Options to purchase more than 1,000 shares of the Company in any one
Plan Year regardless of whether or not such non-employee Director serves on both
the Second Bancorp, Incorporated Board of Directors and The Second National Bank
of Warren Board of Directors.

                            SECTION 3 TERMS OF AWARDS

         3.1  TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ALL AWARDS.

              (a) The number of shares of Stock to which an Award shall be
granted shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, subject to
the provisions of Sections 2.1 and 2.3. Notwithstanding the above, with respect
to Options granted to non-employee Directors, there are hereby granted the
following Options under this Plan subject to Sections 2.1 and 2.3: (i) With
respect to each individual who first becomes a non-employee Director of the
Company or its Subsidiary on or after the effective date of the Plan, an Option
to purchase 1,000 shares of Stock as of the date the individual first becomes a
non-employee Director; (ii) With respect to each person who, as of the date of
any annual meeting of the Company's shareholders after the effective date of
this Plan, is an incumbent non-employee Director of the Company or its
Subsidiary, and previous to such meeting has received an Option under (i) above,
an Option to purchase 1,000 shares of Stock as of the date of such meeting.
Notwithstanding the above, (I) the initial grant of Options to the non-employee
Directors following approval of this Plan by the shareholders, shall not occur
until the

                                       4
<PAGE>   7

six (6) month anniversary of the adoption of this Plan by the shareholders, and
(II) in no case shall a non-employee Director receive Options to purchase more
than 1,000 shares of Stock (as adjusted from time to time under Section 4.2) in
any one calendar year.

              (b) Each Award shall be evidenced by a written Option Agreement
delivered to and accepted by the Participant containing such terms and
provisions as the Committee may determine is appropriate, subject to the
provisions of the Plan.

              (c) The date an Award is granted shall be the date on which the
Committee has approved the terms and conditions of the Option Agreement and has
determined the recipient of the Award and the number of shares covered by the
Award; provided, however, that the date of an Award to a non-employee Director
shall be as provided in Section 3.1(a) above. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Plan, in no event shall any Award be granted prior to the
date in which this Plan is approved by a majority of the shareholders of the
Company.

              (d) The Options granted pursuant to this Plan shall vest 100% one
(1) year from the date of grant. Notwithstanding, the Committee may provide in
any Option Agreement an alternative vesting schedule which shall in no event be
less than one year. The vesting schedule shall specify when such Awards shall
become Vested and thus exercisable. Notwithstanding any vesting schedule which
may be specified in an Option Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control,
the Awards granted under the Plan shall become 100% Vested and exercisable
pursuant to the terms of the Option Agreement.

              (e) Awards shall not be transferable or assignable except by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable, during the
Participant's lifetime, only by the Participant, or in the event of the
Disability or death of the Participant, by the legal representative of the
Participant. Notwithstanding the above, the Committee may expressly provide in
the Option Agreement that a Participant may transfer such Award, in whole or in
part, (i) to a spouse or lineal descendant (hereinafter "Family Member"), (ii)
to a trust for the exclusive benefit of a Family Member, or (iii) to a
partnership, limited liability company or other entity in which all the
beneficial owners are Family Members. Subsequent transfers of Awards shall be
prohibited except in accordance with this Section 3.1(e). All terms and
conditions associated with the Award shall continue to apply following a
transfer in accordance with this Section 3.1(e).

         3.2  TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS:

              (a) Option Price. Subject to adjustment in accordance with Section
4.2 and the other provisions of this Section 3.2, the exercise price (the
"Exercise Price") per share of the Stock purchasable under any Option shall be
one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of Stock on the date of
grant as determined in Section 3.1(c) and 1.1(i).

              (b) Option Term. Any Option granted to a Participant shall not be
exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is

                                       5
<PAGE>   8

granted. The Committee may specify a shorter term and state such term in the
Option Agreement.

              (c) Payment. Payment for all shares of Stock purchased pursuant to
the exercise of an Option shall be made in cash or a cash equivalent. Payment
shall be made at the time that the Option or any part thereof is exercised, and
no shares shall be issued or delivered upon exercise of an Option until full
payment has been made by the Participant. The holder of an Option, as such,
shall have none of the rights of a shareholder.

              (d) Conditions to the Exercise of an Option. Each Option granted
under the Plan shall be exercisable by whom, at such time or times, or upon the
occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Committee shall
specify in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that subsequent to the grant
of an Option, the Committee, at any time before complete termination of such
Option, may accelerate the time or times at which such Option may be exercised
in whole or in part, may permit the Participant or any other designated person
to exercise the Option, or any portion thereof, for all or part of the remaining
Option term notwithstanding any provision of the Option Agreement to the
contrary.

              (e) Special Provisions for Certain Substitute Options.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.2, any Option issued
in substitution for an option previously issued by another entity, which
substitution occurs in connection with a transaction described in Code Section
424(a), may provide for an exercise price computed in accordance with such Code
Section and the regulations thereunder and may contain such other terms and
conditions as the Committee may prescribe to cause such substitute Option to
contain as nearly as possible the same terms and conditions (including the
applicable vesting and termination provisions) as those contained in the
previously issued Option being replaced thereby.

         3.3 TREATMENT OF AWARDS UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR DIRECTORSHIP.
Any Award granted under this Plan to a Participant who suffers a Termination of
Employment or Directorship may be canceled, accelerated, paid or continued, as
provided in the Option Agreement or, in the absence of such provision, as the
Committee may determine. The portion of any Award exercisable in the event of
continuation may be adjusted by the Committee to reflect the Participant's
period of service from the date of grant through the date of the Participant's
Termination of Employment or Directorship or such other factors as the Committee
determines are relevant to its decision to continue the Award.

                          SECTION 4 GENERAL PROVISIONS

         4.1 WITHHOLDING. Whenever the Company proposes or is required to issue
or transfer shares of Stock under the Plan, the Company shall have the right to
require the employee Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to
satisfy any statutory federal, state and local, if any, withholding tax
requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such
stock. An employee Participant may pay the withholding tax in cash, or, in such
other manner as the Option Agreement provides.

                                       6
<PAGE>   9

         4.2  CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION; MERGER; LIQUIDATION.

              (a) The number of shares of Stock reserved for the grant of
Options; the number of shares of Stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise
or payment, as applicable, of each outstanding Option; and the Exercise Price of
each outstanding Option shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or
decrease in the number of issued shares of Stock resulting from a subdivision or
combination of shares, or the payment of a stock dividend in shares of Stock to
holders of outstanding shares of Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the
number of shares of Stock outstanding effected without receipt of consideration
by the Company.

              (b) In the event of a merger, consolidation or other
reorganization of the Company or tender offer for shares of Stock, the Committee
may make such adjustments with respect to Awards and take such other action as
it deems necessary or appropriate to reflect, or in anticipation of such merger,
consolidation, reorganization or tender offer, including, without limitation,
the substitution of new Awards, the termination or adjustment of outstanding
Awards, or the acceleration of Awards. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section
4.2 may provide, in the Committee's discretion, for the elimination without
payment of any fractional shares that might otherwise become subject to any
Award.

              (c) The existence of the Plan and the Awards granted pursuant to
the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make
or authorize any adjustment, reclassification, reorganization or other change in
its capital or business structure, any merger or consolidation of the Company,
any issue of debt or equity securities having preferences or priorities as to
the Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company,
any sale or transfer of all or any part of its business or assets, or any other
corporate act or proceeding.

         4.3  RIGHT TO TERMINATE EMPLOYMENT OR DIRECTORSHIP. Nothing in the Plan
or in any Option Agreement pursuant to this Plan shall confer upon any
Participant the right to continue as an employee, officer, or Director of the
Company or any of its Subsidiary or affect the right of the Company, or with
respect to the non-employee Directors, the shareholders, or its Subsidiary to
terminate the Participant's employment or directorship at any time.

         4.4  RESTRICTIONS ON DELIVERY AND SALE OF SHARES; LEGENDS. Each Award
is subject to the condition that if at any time the Committee, in its
discretion, shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of
the shares covered by such Award upon any securities exchange or under any
state or federal law is necessary or desirable as a condition of or in
connection with the granting of such Award or the purchase or delivery of
shares thereunder, the delivery of any or all shares pursuant to such Award may
be withheld unless and until such listing, registration or qualification shall
have been effected. If a registration statement is not in effect under the
Securities Act of 1933 or any applicable state securities laws with respect to
the shares of Stock purchasable or otherwise deliverable under Awards then
outstanding, the Committee may require, as a condition of exercise of any
Option, that the Participant or other recipient of an Award represent, in
writing, that the shares received pursuant to the Award are being acquired for
investment and not with a view to

                                       7
<PAGE>   10

distribution and agree that shares will not be disposed of except pursuant to
an effective registration statement, unless the Company shall have received an
opinion of counsel that such disposition is exempt from such requirement under
the Securities Act of 1933 and any applicable state securities laws. The
Company may include on certificates representing shares delivered pursuant to
an Award such legends referring to the foregoing representations or
restrictions or any other applicable restrictions on resale as the Company, in
its discretion, shall deem appropriate.

         4.5  NON-ALIENATION OF BENEFITS. Other than as specifically provided
with regard to the death of a Participant or with regard to a transfer to a
Family Member in accordance with Section 3.1(e), no benefit under the Plan
shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer,
assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any attempt to do so shall be
void. No such benefit shall, prior to receipt by the Participant, be in any
manner liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, or torts of
the Participant.

         4.6  TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. The Board of Directors at
any time may amend or terminate the Plan without shareholder approval;
provided, however, that the Board of Directors may condition any amendment on
the approval of shareholders of the Company if such approval is necessary or
advisable with respect to tax, securities or other applicable laws. No such
termination or amendment without the consent of the holder of an Award shall
adversely affect the rights of the Participant under such Award.

         4.7  CHOICE OF LAW. The laws of the State of Ohio shall govern the
Plan, to the extent not preempted by federal law.

         4.8  EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF PLAN. The Plan shall be submitted to
the shareholders of the Company for their approval within twelve (12) months
before or after the adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors of the
Company, and shall become effective upon the date of such approval, and shall
remain in effect until the earlier of (a) the date on which all shares for
which Options may be issued have been issued, (b) termination of the Plan by
the Board, (c) ten years from the date of the adoption of the Plan by the
shareholders, or (d) such date as the Board may elect. Any Award previously
granted may extend beyond the termination of the Plan, and the Committee shall
continue to have the authority to administer such Awards.

Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), by an exchange of shares
of voting common stock pursuant to the following plan (hereinafter, the "Plan"):

                  PLAN OF REORGANIZATION. It is intended that the terms and
conditions of this Agreement comply in all respects with Section 368(a) (1) (B)
of the Code and the regulations corresponding thereto, so that the
reorganization contemplated hereby shall qualify as a tax free reorganization
under the Code. Accordingly, it is the intention of the parties hereto that, as
a result of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby shall be

                                       2
<PAGE>

accomplished solely in exchange for the voting common stock of each of Ikon and
the Company and that no gain or loss shall be recognized by the Stockholders or
by Ikon who are each transferring or issuing their shares of common stock solely
in exchange for receiving the common stock of the other; and further in
pursuance of the Plan, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any
outstanding warrants to purchase shares of Company Common Stock will be amended
to provide for the purchase of shares of Ikon Common Stock upon the exercise
thereof or exchanged for warrants to purchase shares of Ikon Common Stock

of exchanging the Company Shares for shares of Ikon's voting common stock, par

shares of Ikon Common Stock for each share of Company Common Stock (the ratio of
2.2222222 shares of Ikon Common Stock for each share of Company Common Stock is
hereinafter referred to as the "Exchange Ratio"). If the application of the
Exchange Ratio results in a fractional number, no fractional shares of Ikon
Common Stock shall be issued but instead the fractional number shall be rounded
up to the next whole number. The aggregate shares of Ikon Common Stock to be
issued to the Stockholders is hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Ikon
Shares".

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the
mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereby agree as follows:

                                       3

obligations or other encumbrances except such restrictions as are imposed by
Federal or state securities laws; and Ikon shall convey to the Stockholders good
and marketable title to their proportionate share of the Ikon Shares based on
Schedule 1.3 annexed hereto, free and clear of all liens, claims, debts,

nor the Company Shares to be exchanged as provided under Section 1.1 are being
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and are to

transfer of such shares be restricted under the Act. Each of Ikon and the
Stockholders agree to deliver to the other at or before the Closing an
investment letter acknowledging the foregoing and agreeing to comply with the
requirements of such exemption. In order to further evidence such restriction on
transferability, each recipient of shares pursuant to this Agreement hereby
agrees to the imposition of a customary restrictive legend on the face or back
of each certificate representing the shares to be exchanged.

the Closing Date, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of
Ikon, incur or become subject to, or agree to incur or become subject to, any
Liabilities except current liabilities and obligations incurred in the ordinary
course of business or as contemplated by this Agreement or any exhibit or
schedule hereto.

                  SECTION 4.8 Absence of Certain Changes. Since March 31, 2001,
there has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or
otherwise, of the Company, other than changes occurring in the ordinary course
of business which changes have not, individually or in the aggregate, had a
material adverse effect on the Business, properties, assets, operations,
liabilities, financial condition or prospects of the Company.

or provided for all taxes shown on such returns, and all deficiencies or other
assessments of tax, interest or penalties which have been served on or delivered

have never been audited by the Internal Revenue Service. To the best knowledge
of the Company, there is no unassessed tax deficiency proposed or threatened
against the Company. No audit of any tax return of the Company is in progress.
There are not in force any extensions of time with respect to the date on which
any tax return was or is due to be filed by the Company or any waivers or
agreements by the Company for an extension of time for the assessment or payment
of any tax.

                  SECTION 4.10 Real and Personal Property - Leased to the
Company. Set forth on Schedule 4.10(a) annexed hereto is a description of each
lease under which the Company is the lessee of any real property, and on
Schedule 4.10 (b) annexed hereto is a description of each lease under which the
Company is the lessee of any personal property. The premises or property
described in said leases are presently occupied or used by the Company as lessee
under the terms of such leases. All rentals due under such leases have been paid
and there exist no defaults under the terms of such leases and no event has
occurred which, upon passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would
result in any events of default or prevent the Company from exercising and
obtaining the benefits of any rights or options contained therein. The Company

                                       13

has the full right, title and interest of the lessee under the terms of said

and in full force and effect.

                  SECTION 4.11 Title. The Company Balance Sheet reflects all of
the material assets and properties of the Company, except to the extent the
Company has acquired or disposed of any assets and properties, in the ordinary
course of its business since March 31, 2001. The Company owns outright and has
good and marketable title to all of its assets and properties, in each case free
and clear of any lien or other encumbrance except for (i) immaterial assets and
properties; (ii) liens or other encumbrances securing taxes, assessments,
governmental charges or levies, or the claims of materialmen, carriers,
landlords and like persons, all of which are not yet due and payable and
purchase money interests and similar security interests for goods purchased by
the Company since March 31, 2001 in the ordinary course of business; (iii)
defects of title, liens or other encumbrances of a character that do not
materially impair the assets or properties of the Company or detract materially
from the Business, or (iv) liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests
reflected in the Company Balance Sheet. The assets and properties owned by the
Company, as reflected on the Company Balance Sheet, are adequate to permit the
Company to conduct the Business as presently conducted and to continue to
conduct the Business after the Closing.

the Contracts and other agreements set forth on Schedule 5.14 or on any other

and binding upon the parties thereto in accordance with their terms, and Ikon
has paid in full or accrued all amounts due thereunder and has satisfied in full
or provided for all of its liabilities and obligations thereunder, and is not in
default in any material respect under any of them, nor, to Ikon's best

                                       35
<PAGE>

time or both would constitute a default thereunder that would give the other
party thereto the right to terminate such Contract. Except as separately
identified on Schedule 5.14, no approval or consent of any person is needed in
order that the Contracts set forth on Schedule 5.14 or on any other Schedule
continue in full force and effect following the consummation of the
Transactions. Ikon will not, between the date hereof and the Closing Date,
without the Stockholders' prior written consent, become a party to any Contract

Contract listed on Schedule 5.14.

threatened against or involving Ikon or any of its properties or assets, nor, to
the best knowledge of Ikon, are there any grounds therefor, that individually or
in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect upon the transactions
contemplated hereby or upon the assets, properties, business, operations, or
condition (financial or otherwise) of Ikon. There are no actions, suits or
claims or legal, administrative, regulatory, governmental or arbitral
proceedings pending or, to Ikon's best knowledge, threatened that would give

                                       36
<PAGE>

rise to any right of indemnification on the part of any director or officer of

                            INDEMNIFICATION; SURVIVAL

                  SECTION 9.1 Obligation of the Shareholders to Indemnify. Each
of the Stockholders, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify, defend and
hold harmless Ikon and its stockholders as of the date of this Agreement and
their respective directors, officers, heirs, legal representatives, successors
and assigns, from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, deficiencies,
actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, orders, assessments, amounts paid
in settlement, fines, and reasonable costs and expenses (including interest,
penalties and reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and reasonable
investigative costs) (collectively, "Losses") based upon, arising out of or
otherwise in respect of (i) any breach in any of the representations and
warranties of such Stockholder in this Agreement and (ii) any breach or
non-fulfillment of any of the covenants or agreements of such Stockholder
contained in this Agreement.

                                       57
<PAGE>

                  SECTION 9.2 Obligation of Ikon to Indemnify. Ikon agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Stockholders, and their respective
directors, officers, heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, from
and against any Losses based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of (i)
any breach in any of the representations and warranties of Ikon set forth in
this Agreement and (ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or
agreement of Ikon contained in this Agreement.

                  SECTION 9.3 Claims Notice. Each party hereto (an "Indemnified
Party") shall, promptly upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance (an
"Indemnifiable Event") which, in his, her or its reasonable judgment, may result
in a Loss for which the Indemnified Party could assert a right of
indemnification against any other party (or parties) hereto (the "Indemnifying
Party") under this Article 9, give notice thereof (the "Claims Notice") to the
Indemnifying Party (but the obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this
Article 9 shall not be impaired by the Indemnified Party's failure to give such
notice, except to the extent that said failure actually prejudices the rights of
the Indemnifying Party). The Claims Notice shall describe the Indemnifiable
Event in reasonable detail, shall indicate whether the Indemnifiable Event
involves a "Third Party Claim" (defined below), and shall indicate the amount
(estimated, if necessary) of the Loss that has been or may be suffered by the
Indemnified Party. In such event, the Indemnifying Party shall, within fifteen
(15) business days after receipt of the Claims Notice, give notice to the
Indemnified Party of whether he or it intends to dispute the claim described in
the Claims Notice (the "Response Notice"). If the Indemnifying Party timely
disputes the Claims Notice as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall, for a
period of not more than fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Response
Notice (or less, if the nature of the Indemnifiable Event so requires), seek out
a negotiated settlement of the dispute with the Indemnifying Party and shall

                                       58
<PAGE>

refrain during that period from commencing any judicial proceeding or other
action to enforce this Article 9. If, despite their good faith negotiations, the
parties are unable to resolve the dispute within the aforesaid period (or if the
Indemnifying Party fails to timely give the Response Notice), the Indemnified
Party shall be free to exercise all rights and remedies available to him or it
hereunder, at law in equity or otherwise to enforce his or its rights under this
Article 9. As used herein, "Third Party Claim" means any demand, claim or
circumstance which, with the lapse of time or otherwise, would give rise to a
claim or the commencement (or threatened commencement) of any action, proceeding
or investigation against the Indemnified Party by any other person.

                  SECTION 9.4 Opportunity to Defend Against Third Party Claims.
If the Claims Notice relates to a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may
elect to compromise or defend, at its own expense and by its own counsel, such
Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects to compromise or defend such
Third Party Claim, it shall within 30 business days (or sooner, if the nature of
the Third Party Claim so requires) after his or its receipt of the Claims
Notice, notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so, and the Indemnified
Party shall cooperate, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, in the
compromise of, or defense against, such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying
Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party claim, fails to notify
the Indemnified Party of its election as herein provided or contests its
obligation to indemnify under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may pay,
compromise or defend such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party may settle or
compromise any claim over the objection of the other, provided, however, that
consent to settlement or compromise shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any
event, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party may participate, at
their own expense, in the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying
Party chooses to defend any claim, the Indemnified Party shall make available to

                                       59
<PAGE>

the Indemnifying Party any books, records or other documents within its control
that are necessary or appropriate for such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall
be subrogated to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to the extent
of any indemnification provided by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified
Party.

                  SECTION 9.5 Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Indemnified Party shall have any
liability for indemnification under this Article 9 until the total of all Losses
of the Indemnified Party exceeds $25,000 and the total liability of an
Indemnifying Party under this Article 9 shall (i) in no event exceed the fair
market value of the consideration received as of the date of the applicable
Indemnifiable Event and (ii) be reduced to the extent of payment to the
Indemnified Party of any applicable insurance proceeds; provided, however, that
the foregoing limitations on indemnification shall be inapplicable in the case
of any Losses resulting from any breach of the representations and warranties
contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 5.2 and 5.22 hereof.

                  SECTION 9.6 Survival. Notwithstanding the investigations by
the parties hereto of each other's affairs, and notwithstanding any knowledge of
facts determined or determinable by such parties pursuant to such investigation,
each of Ikon and the Stockholders shall have the right to rely fully upon the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the other parties
contained in this Agreement. The representations and warranties of the parties
contained herein shall survive the Closing (i) to the extent contained in
Section 3.1, 3.2, 5.2 and 5.22 hereof, for the duration of the applicable
statute of limitations, (ii) to the extent relating to any other matter, for
twelve (12) months following the Closing. A claim for indemnification hereunder
must be asserted by a party seeking indemnification within the respective period
of survival.

                  SECTION 9.7 Indemnification Exclusive Remedy. The parties
hereto acknowledge and confirm that, except in the event of fraud, the
indemnification procedures described in this Article 9 shall be the sole and
exclusive remedies available to them for any breach or non-fulfillment of the
representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and other provisions of this
Agreement.

                  SECTION 10.2 Effects of Termination. If this Agreement is
terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated as
described above, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force and
effect, except for the provisions of Section 6.7 relating to expenses and
Section 6.9 relating to confidentiality.
