SECTION 3 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

      To induce the Investors to enter into and consummate this Agreement, the
Company hereby represents and warrants to the Investors as follows:

      3.1 Organization and Corporate Power. The Company is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware, and is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in each
jurisdiction in which the failure to qualify would have a material adverse
effect on the Company. The Company has all required corporate power and
authority to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as
lessee, to carry on its business as presently conducted or contemplated, to
enter into and perform the Transaction Documents and the agreements contemplated
thereby, and generally to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1, the Company does not own or lease
property in any jurisdiction other than its jurisdiction of incorporation and
the jurisdictions in which it is qualified to do business as a foreign
corporation. The copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the
Company, each as amended to date, which have been furnished to counsel for the
Investors, are correct and complete at the date hereof. The Company is not in
violation of any term of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws.

      3.2 Authorization. The Transaction Documents and all documents and
instruments executed pursuant thereto have been duly executed and delivered by
the Company and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company
enforceable in accordance with their terms against the Company. The execution,
delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents and all documents and
instruments contemplated thereby and the delivery and issuance of the Preferred
Shares and, upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action of the Company.
Other than routine filing of a Form D with the SEC and any required filings
under state securities laws, no consent, approval or authorization of, or
designation, declaration or filing with, any Person, and no lapse of a waiting
period, is required of the Company in connection with the execution, delivery
and performance of the Transaction Documents, or the issuance and delivery by
the Company of the Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and, upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares,
or the performance or consummation of any other transaction contemplated
thereby.

      3.3 Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by the
Company of the Transaction Documents and each of the other agreements and
instruments to which it is a party and which are contemplated thereby will not
(a) conflict with or result in any default under (i) any

                                     - 9 -
<PAGE>   10

contract, obligation or commitment of the Company, or (ii) any provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or any amendment thereof;
(b) result in the creation of any Lien of any nature upon any of the properties
or assets of the Company; or (c) violate any Judgment or Requirement of Law
applicable to the Company. The Company has not previously entered into any
contract, obligation or commitment which is currently in effect or by which the
Company is currently bound, granting any rights to any Person which are
inconsistent with the rights to be granted by the Company in the Transaction
Documents or any of the agreements contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

      3.4 Capitalization of the Company.

            (a) The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of (i)
20,000,000 shares of Common Stock, of which 6,638,433 shares are actually
outstanding as of the First Closing, and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of Preferred
Stock, none of which are outstanding except for the Preferred Shares. No
Certificate of Designation has been filed with the Delaware Secretary of State
with respect to the Preferred Stock except the Certificate of Designation for
the Preferred Shares. All outstanding shares of Common Stock are duly and
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Company has reserved an
aggregate of 2,182,812 shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of
the Preferred Shares. Except for the Outstanding Rights, the Company has not
issued any other shares of its capital stock and there are no outstanding
warrants, options or other rights to purchase or acquire any of such shares or
other securities of the Company, nor are there any outstanding warrants, options
or other rights to acquire any such convertible securities. All of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company (including the Preferred
Shares) have been offered, issued, sold and delivered in compliance with all
applicable federal and state securities laws. The Preferred Shares have been
duly and validly authorized and, when delivered and paid for pursuant to this
Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Preferred
Shares are convertible into 2,182,812 shares of Common Stock which will
represent, as of the Second Closing, approximately 21.38% of the Common Stock on
a fully-diluted basis after giving effect to the issuance of all shares reserved
for issuance under the Outstanding Rights. The Conversion Shares are duly
authorized and, when issued in compliance with the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and will be
issued in compliance with the registration and qualification requirements of all
applicable federal and state securities laws.

            (b) There are no preemptive rights or rights of first refusal with
respect to the issuance or sale of the Company's capital stock, other than
rights to which holders of the Preferred Shares and the Conversion Shares are
entitled as set forth in the Stockholders Agreement. No Person claims to have
or, to the best of the Company's knowledge, has any right to claim any interest
in the Company's capital stock. There are no restrictions on the transfer of the
Company's capital stock other than those arising from the Securities Laws and
the Stockholders Agreement. There are no rights, obligations, or restrictions on
the voting of any of the Company's capital stock, except under the Voting
Agreement, or the registration of such capital stock for offering to the public
pursuant to the 1933 Act. The outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock,
before giving effect to the

                                     - 10 -
<PAGE>   11

transactions contemplated by this Agreement, are held of record and beneficially
by the persons identified in Schedule 3.4 in the amounts indicated therein.

            (c) Except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 3.4, the Company owns
no Subsidiaries or investments in any other corporation or business
organization.

      3.5 Financial Statements. The Financial Statements were prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent
basis, except that the Unaudited Financial Statements have been prepared without
footnote disclosures and year-end audit adjustments, which will not, in any
event, be material. All of such Financial Statements fairly represent the
financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof,
and are true, correct and complete as of the date thereof in all material
respects. Nothing has come to the attention of the management of the Company
since such dates which would indicate that the Financial Statements were not
true and correct as of the date thereof.

      3.6 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities. Between the date of the Unaudited
Financial Statements and the First Closing, except as and to the extent
disclosed in Schedule 3.6, the Company did not incur any Liabilities that are
(a) individually in excess of $100,000 or (b) in the aggregate in excess of
$250,000, other than (i) Liabilities fully and adequately reflected or reserved
against on the Financial Statements and (ii) Liabilities incurred in the
ordinary course of business. As of the date of the First Closing, the Company
has no knowledge of any circumstance, condition, event or arrangement that may
hereafter give rise to any Liabilities of the Company except in the ordinary
course of business or as otherwise set forth on Schedule 3.6.

      3.7 Absence of Certain Developments. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3.7,
between the date of the Unaudited Financial Statements and the First Closing,
there was (i) no material adverse change in the condition, financial or
otherwise, of the Company or in the assets, liabilities, business or prospects
of the Company, (ii) no declaration, setting aside or payment of any dividend or
other distribution with respect to, or any direct or indirect redemption or
acquisition of, any of the capital stock of the Company, (iii) no waiver of any
right of the Company or cancellation of any debt or claim held by the Company,
(iv) no loan by the Company to any officer, director, employee or stockholder of
the Company, any affiliates of any of the foregoing, or any agreement or
commitment therefor, (v) no material loss, destruction or damage to any property
of the Company, whether or not insured, (vi) no labor trouble involving the
Company and no material change in the personnel of the Company or the terms and
conditions of their employment, and (vii) no acquisition or disposition of any
assets (or any contract or arrangement therefor) nor any other transaction by
the Company otherwise than for fair value in the ordinary course of business.

      3.8 Accounts Receivable. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.8, the Company
has no accounts receivable from any Person which is affiliated with the Company
or any of its directors, officers, employees or shareholders or any affiliates
of any of the foregoing.

                                     - 11 -
<PAGE>   12

      3.9 Debt. Schedule 3.9 sets forth as of the First Closing (a) a list of
all agreements for incurring of indebtedness for borrowed money to which the
Company is a party, (b) the amount of all indebtedness under each such
agreement, (c) the Liens that relate to such indebtedness and that encumber the
assets of the Company, and (d) the name of the lender thereof. None of the
obligations pursuant to such agreements are subject to acceleration by reason of
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor would the
execution of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby result in any default under such agreements.

      3.10 Title to Properties. The Company has good and marketable title to all
of its properties and assets (other than Intellectual Property, which is
addressed by ss. 3.13 below), free and clear of all Liens, and such properties
and assets constitute all of the assets necessary for the conduct of the
Company's business as presently conducted and as presently contemplated to be
conducted. All machinery and equipment included in such properties which is
necessary to the business of the Company is in good condition and repair and all
leases of real or personal property to which the Company is a party are in full
force and effect and afford the Company peaceful and undisturbed possession of
the subject matter of the lease. The Company is not in violation of any
Requirement of Law applicable to the operation of its owned or leased
properties, nor has the Company received any written notice of violation with
which it has not complied.

      3.11 Tax Matters.

            (a) The Company has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to
be paid by it through the date hereof whether disputed or not. All Taxes which
the Company is required to withhold or collect have been withheld and collected
and have been paid over to the proper governmental authorities. The Company has,
in accordance with applicable law, timely and properly filed all Tax returns
required to be filed by it through the date hereof, all such returns correctly
and accurately set forth the amount of any Taxes relating to the applicable
period, and any deductions from, or credits against, any Taxes or taxable income
relating to such returns are in all material respects valid and proper items of
deduction or credit.

            (b) Neither the IRS nor any other governmental authority is now
asserting or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatening to assert against the
Company any deficiency or claim for additional Taxes. No claim has ever been
made by an authority in a jurisdiction where the Company does not file reports
and returns that the Company is or may be subject to taxation by that
jurisdiction. There are no Liens on any of the assets of the Company that arose
in connection with any failure (or alleged failure) to pay any Taxes. The
Company has never entered into a closing agreement pursuant to ss. 7121 of the
Code. The Company is not and never has been a "personal holding company" as
defined under Section 541 of the Code. There has not been any audit of any tax
return filed by the Company, no such audit is in progress, and the Company has
not been notified by any tax authority that any such audit is contemplated or
pending. No extension of time with respect to any date on which a tax return was
or is to be filed by the Company is in force, and no waiver or agreement by the
Company is in force for the extension of time for the assessment or

                                     - 12 -
<PAGE>   13

payment of any Taxes. To the best of the Company's knowledge, the Company does
not have any liability for the Taxes of any person or entity other than the
Company.

      3.12 Contracts and Commitments. Except as provided on Schedule 3.12, and
except for contracts, obligations and commitments (if any) that may be duly
approved by the Board between the First Closing and the Second Closing, the
Company is not a party to any Material Contract. The Company does not know of
any basis for the termination, expiration or modification of any such Material
Contracts. Neither the Company nor any other party thereto is in default under
any Material Contract and, to the best knowledge of the Company, there is no
state of facts which upon notice or lapse of time or both would constitute such
a default. The Company is not a party to any contract or arrangement which under
circumstances now foreseeable is likely to have a materially adverse effect on
the assets, liabilities, business, condition, financial or otherwise, or
prospects of the Company. The Company does not have any liability for
renegotiation of any government contracts or subcontracts.

3.13 Intellectual Property.

            (a) Schedule 3.13 sets forth all Patents, Trademarks and registered
Copyrights owned by, and applications for any of the above filed by, the Company
specifying as to each item, as applicable: (i) the category of Intellectual
Property; (ii) the jurisdiction in which the item is issued or registered or in
which any application for issuance or registration has been filed, including the
respective issuance, registration or application number; (iii) the date of
application, issuance or registration; and (iv) with respect to any Trademarks,
the class or classes of goods or services on which each such Trademark is or is
intended to be used. None of the Intellectual Property of the Company is subject
to any outstanding Judgment, and no action, suit, proceeding, hearing,
investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand is pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened, which challenges the validity,
enforceability, use or ownership of the Intellectual Property of the Company,
nor does the Company know of any valid basis for any such claim.

            (b) Schedule 3.13 sets forth all licenses, sublicenses and other
agreements under which the Company is either a licensor or licensee of any
Intellectual Property, except such licenses, sublicenses and other agreements
relating to prepackaged software used solely on the computers of the Company.
The Company has substantially performed all obligations imposed upon it
thereunder, and neither the Company nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any
other party thereto, is in breach of or default thereunder in any respect, nor
is there any event which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a
default thereunder. All of the licenses listed on Schedule 3.13 are valid,
enforceable and in full force and effect, and will continue to be so on
identical terms as of both the First Closing and the Second Closing, except as
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
principles of equity relating to enforceability (regardless of whether
considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

            (c) To the knowledge of the Company, none of the Intellectual
Property currently sold or licensed by the Company to any Person or used by or
licensed to the Company infringes upon or otherwise violates any Intellectual
Property rights of others. No claim is pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened which challenges the freedom of the Company to conduct its
business as presently conducted.

            (d) No litigation, action, suit, proceeding, arbitration, claim,
complaint, dispute or investigation is pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened against the Company, contesting the right of the Company to
sell or license to any Person or use the Intellectual Property presently sold or
licensed to such Person or used by the Company, nor does the Company know of any
valid basis for any such claim.

            (e) To the knowledge of the Company, no Person is infringing upon or
otherwise violating the Intellectual Property rights of the Company.

            (f) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.13, the Company has not agreed
to indemnify any person against any charge of infringement or other violation
with respect to any Intellectual Property owned or used by the Company.

            (g) No former employer of any employee of the Company, and no
current or former client of any consultant of the Company, has made a claim
against the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, against any other
Person, that such employee or such consultant is utilizing proprietary
information of such former employer or client.

            (h) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.13, the Company is not a party
to or bound by and, upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, will not be a party to or bound by, any license or other
agreement requiring the payment of any material royalty payment, excluding such
agreements relating to prepackaged software licensed for use solely on the
computers of the Company.

            (i) To the knowledge of the Company, no employee of the Company is

agreement or other contract or agreement relating to the relationship of such
employee with the Company.

            (j) Since January 1995, each employee and officer of the Company who

assignment of inventions to the Company and, to the knowledge of the Company,
none of such employees and officers are in violation of such agreements.

            (k) To the knowledge of the Company, none of the Trade Secrets of
the Company, the value of which is contingent upon the continued maintenance of
the confidentiality thereof, has

                                     - 14 -
<PAGE>   15

been disclosed to any Person other than employees, representatives and agents of
the Company, except (A) where the Company determined that such disclosure was
necessary to conduct the business of the Company, such disclosure not having a

of a patent application by the Company, or (C) under a confidentiality
agreement.

            (l) The Company has the exclusive right to file, procure and
maintain all applications and registrations for the Intellectual Property owned
by the Company.

            (m) To the present knowledge of the Company, all Patents, Trademarks
and Copyrights owned by the Company are valid and subsisting. The Company has
taken commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and protect its Intellectual
Property.

            (n) The Intellectual Property owned by the Company is free and clear
of all Liens.

      3.14 Litigation. There is no litigation, arbitration or governmental
proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which could, if
adversely determined, (i) call into question the validity or hinder the
enforceability or performance of the Transaction Documents or the agreements and
transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) have a materially adverse effect on
the assets, liabilities, business, condition (financial or otherwise), or
prospects of the Company; nor, to the best knowledge of the Company, has there
occurred any event nor does there exist any condition on the basis of which any
litigation, proceeding or investigation might properly be instituted.

      3.15 Offerees. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has
sold, offered or solicited offers to buy any securities of the Company so as to
bring the offer, issuance or sale of the Preferred Shares or the Conversion
Shares, as contemplated by this Agreement, within the provisions of Section 5 of
the 1933 Act, unless such offer, issuance or sale was within the exemptions of
the 1933 Act. Assuming the accuracy of the representations of the Investors in
Section 4, below, the Company has complied with all Securities Laws in
connection with the issuance and sale of the Preferred Shares.

      3.16 Business: Compliance with Laws. The Company has all material
franchises, permits, licenses, orders, approvals and all other rights and

course.

COBRA and any applicable, similar state law.

            (h) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement will not: (i) entitle any current or former employee to severance pay,
unemployment compensation or any similar payment; (ii) accelerate the time of
payment or vesting, or increase the amount of any compensation due to, or in
respect of, any current or former employee; (iii) result in or satisfy a
condition to the payment of compensation that would, in combination with any
other payment, result in an "excess parachute payment" within the meaning of
Code ss. 280G(b); or (iv) constitute or involve a prohibited transaction (as
defined in ERISA ss. 502(1)) or otherwise violate Part 4 of Subtitle B of Title

SECTION 4 INVESTOR REPRESENTATIONS

      To induce the Company to enter into this Agreement, each Investor hereby
severally and not jointly represents to the Company as follows:

      4.1 Authorization. The execution of this Agreement and all other documents
executed pursuant to hereto have been duly authorized by all necessary action on
the part of the Investor, has been duly executed and delivered, and constitutes
a valid, binding and enforceable agreement of the Investor.

                                     - 20 -
<PAGE>   21

      4.2 Investment Intent. The Investor is acquiring the Preferred Shares for
its own account, for investment, and not with a present view to any
"distribution" thereof within the meaning of the 1933 Act. The Investor was not
formed or organized for the purpose of acquiring the Preferred Shares.

      4.3 Restrictions on Transfer. The Investor understands that, because the
Preferred Shares have not been registered under the Securities Laws, the
Investor cannot dispose of any or all of the Preferred Shares or the Conversion
Shares unless such Securities are subsequently registered under the Securities
Laws or exemptions from such registration are available. The Investor
understands that each certificate representing the Preferred Shares and the
Conversion Shares will bear a legend substantially as follows:

      The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered
      under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of
      any state. These securities may not be sold, pledged or otherwise
      transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement under
      the securities laws or a written opinion of counsel reasonably
      satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required.

      4.4 Sophistication. The Investor is sufficiently knowledgeable and
experienced in the making of venture capital investments so as to be able to
evaluate the risks and merits of its investment in the Company, and is able to
bear the economic risk of loss of its investment in the Company.

      4.5 Reliance by Company. The Investor has been advised that the Preferred
Shares have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Laws and
that in issuing the Preferred Shares the Company is relying upon, among other
things, the representations and warranties of the Investors contained in this
Section 4.

      4.6 Brokers. No broker, finder, agent or similar intermediary has acted on
behalf of the Investor in connection with this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby, and there are no brokerage commissions, finder's fees or
similar fees or commissions payable in connection therewith.

      4.7 Accreditation. The Investor is an "accredited investor" as that term
is defined under Regulation D adopted under the 1933 Act.

SECTION 5 INDEMNIFICATION

      5.1 General.

            (a) The Company shall, to the full extent permitted by law, and in
addition to any such rights which any Indemnified Party (as defined herein) may
have pursuant to statute, common law, separate agreement, the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, or otherwise, indemnify, defend and
hold harmless each Investor (including its respective subsidiaries, affiliates,
directors, officers, members, partners, employees and agents, an "Indemnified
Investor") and each person (a "Controlling Person" and, collectively with
Indenmified Investors, the "Indemnified Parties") who controls any of them
within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, from and against any and all
Losses (including Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party in any action between
the Company and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party and any
third party or otherwise) resulting from, arising out of or relating to (i) any
breach of any representation or warranty, covenant or agreement by the Company
in the Transaction Documents and/or any Certificate or Schedule delivered by the
Company pursuant thereto, including, without limitation, any legal,
administrative or other actions (including actions brought by the Investors or
the Company or any equity holders of the Company or derivative actions brought
by any Person claiming through or in the Company's name), proceedings or
investigations (whether formal or informal), or written threats thereof, based
upon, relating to or arising out of the Transaction Documents and/or any
Certificate or Schedule delivered by the Company pursuant thereto, the
transactions contemplated thereby, or any Indemnified Party's role therein or in
transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) by reason of their status as a security
holder, creditor, director, agent, representative or controlling person of the
Company (including, without limitation, any and all Losses under the Securities
Laws, at common law or otherwise, which relate directly or indirectly to the
registration, purchase, sale or ownership of the Securities or to any fiduciary
obligation owed with respect thereto); provided, however, that the Company will
not be liable to the extent that Losses arise from and are based on an untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission in a registration
statement or prospectus which is made in reliance on and in conformity with
information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party.
The indemnification and contribution provided for in this Section 5.1 will
remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on
behalf of the Indemnified Parties or any officer, director, employee, agent or
Controlling Person of the Indemnified Parties.

            (b) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.1 is for
any reason held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses referred to above, then the Company,
in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party thereunder, shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses
(i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits
received by the Company and the Investors, or (ii) if the allocation provided by
clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i)
above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Investors in connection
with the action or inaction which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other
relevant equitable

                                     - 22 -
<PAGE>   23

considerations. In connection with any registration of the Company's securities,
the relative benefits received by the Company and the Investors shall be deemed
to be in the same respective proportions that the net proceeds from the offering
(before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Investors, in each
case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the applicable prospectus,
bear to the aggregate public offering price of the securities so offered. The
relative fault of the Company and the Investors shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
relates to information supplied by the Company or the Investors and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission.

            (c) The Company and the Investors agree that it would not be just
and equitable if contribution pursuant to the foregoing paragraph (b) were
determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of
allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in the foregoing paragraph (b). In connection with any registration of the
Company's securities, in no event shall an Investor be required to contribute
any amount under this Section 5.1 in excess of the lesser of (i) that proportion
of the total of such Losses indemnified against equal to the proportion of the
total securities sold under such registration statement which is being sold by
such Investors or (ii) the proceeds received by such Investor from its sale of
securities under such registration statement. No person found guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of the Securities Laws) shall
be entitled to contribution from any person who was not found guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

      5.2 Notice; Defense of Claims.

            (a) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of any
third party or other claim, liability or expense to which the indemnification
obligations hereunder would apply, including in connection with any governmental
proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall give notice thereof in writing to the
indemnifying party or parties, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying
party or parties promptly will not relieve the indemnifying party or parties
from any liability except to the extent that the indemnifying party or parties
shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of the failure or delay in
giving such notice. Such notice shall state the information then available
regarding the amount and nature of such claim, liability or expense and shall
specify the provision or provisions of this Agreement under which the liability
or obligation is asserted.

            (b) In the case of any third party claim, if within twenty (20) days
after receiving the notice described in the preceding paragraph the indemnifying
party or parties (i) give written notice to the Indemnified Parties stating that
they intend to defend in good faith against such claim, liability or expense at
their own cost and expense and (ii) provide assurance and security reasonably
acceptable to such Indemnified Parties that such indemnification will be paid
fully and promptly if required and such Indemnified Parties will not incur cost
or expense during the proceeding, then counsel for the defense shall be selected
by the indemnifying party or parties (subject to the consent of such Indemnified
Parties which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Indemnified

                                     - 23 -
<PAGE>   24

Parties shall not be eligible for any payment with respect to such claim,
liability or expense as long as the indemnifying party or parties are conducting
a good faith and diligent defense at their own expense; provided, however, that
the assumption of defense of any such matters by the indemnifying party or
parties shall relate solely to the claim, liability or expense that is subject
or potentially subject to indemnification. If the indemnifying party or parties
assume such defense in accordance with the preceding sentence, they shall have
the right, with the consent of such Indemnified Parties, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld, to settle all indemnifiable matters related to claims
by third parties which are susceptible to being settled provided the
indemnifying party or parties' obligation to indemnify such Indemnified Parties
therefor will be fully satisfied and the settlement includes a complete release
of such Indemnified Parties. The indemnifying party or parties shall keep the
such Indemnified Parties apprised of the status of the claim, liability or
expense and any resulting suit, proceeding or enforcement action, shall furnish
such Indemnified Parties with all documents and information that such
Indemnified Parties shall reasonably request and shall consult with such
Indemnified Parties prior to acting on major matters, including settlement
discussions. Notwithstanding anything herein stated, such Indemnified Parties
shall at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its
own expense directly or through counsel; provided, however, if the named parties
to the action or proceeding include both the indemnifying party or parties and
the Indemnified Parties and representation of both parties by the same counsel
would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the
expense of separate counsel for such Indemnified Parties shall be paid by the
indemnifying party or parties. If no such notice of intent to dispute and defend
is given by the indemnifying party or parties, or if such diligent good faith
defense is not being or ceases to be conducted, such Indemnified Parties shall,
at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties, undertake the defense of
(with counsel selected by such Indemnified Parties), and shall have the right to
compromise or settle, such claim, liability or expense. If such claim, liability
or expense is one that by its nature cannot be defended solely by the
indemnifying party or parties, then such Indemnified Parties shall make
available all information and assistance that the indemnifying party or parties
may reasonably request and shall cooperate with the indemnifying party or
parties in such defense.

      5.3 Satisfaction of Indemnification Obligations. Any indemnity payable
pursuant to this Section 5 shall be paid within the later of (a) thirty (30)
days after the Indemnified Party's request therefor or (b) after a final
non-appealable determination of Loss, and ten (10) days prior to the date on
which the Loss upon which the indemnity is based is required to be satisfied by
the Indemnified Party, if applicable.
