     or invalidated in any way.

7.11 Waiver.  The  waiver by any  Party of any  breach  of a  provision  of this
     Agreement by the other Party shall not constitute a continuing  waiver or a

                        INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS
                        ---------------------------------

     9.1  Indemnification  by ZiaSun The ZiaSun agrees to indemnify,  defend and
hold the  Purchaser,  and  Purchaser's  agents,  attorneys and  representatives,
harmless against and in respect of any and all claims,  demands,  losses, costs,
expenses,  obligations,   liabilities,  damages,  recoveries  and  deficiencies,
including  interest,  penalties and reasonable attorney fees that it shall incur
or suffer,  which arise out of, result or relate to any breach of, or failure by
ZiaSun to perform any of its material representations,  warranties, covenants or
agreements in this Agreement or in any schedule,  certificate,  exhibit or other
instrument furnished or to be furnished by ZiaSun under this Agreement; provided
however,  that  notice of any such  breach  shall  have been  communicated  with
specificity within one (1) year of the date hereof.

     9.2 Indemnification of ZiaSun by Purchaser.  Purchaser agrees to indemnify,
defend and hold the ZiaSun and its officers,  directors,  agents,  attorneys and
representatives  harmless against and in respect of any and all claims, demands,
losses,  costs,  expenses,  obligations,  liabilities,  damages,  recoveries and
deficiencies,  including interest,  penalties and reasonable attorney fees, that
it shall incur or suffer, which arise out of, result or relate to (a) any breach
of,  or  failure  by   Purchaser   to  perform  any  of   Purchaser's   material
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement or in any
schedule, certificate,  exhibit or other instrument furnished or to be furnished
by Purchaser under this  Agreement;  provided  however,  that notice of any such

date hereof.

                                       7
<PAGE>
     9.3 Notice and  Opportunity  to Defend.  If there occurs an event which any
Party asserts is an indemnifiable event, the Party seeking indemnification shall
notify the Party obligated to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party")
promptly.  If such event involves (i) any claim or (ii) the  commencement of any
action or proceeding by a third person, the Party seeking  indemnification  will
give such Indemnifying Party written notice of such claim or the commencement of
such action or  proceeding.  Such notice  shall be a condition  precedent to any
liability of the Indemnifying  Party hereunder.  Such  Indemnifying  Party shall
have a period of thirty  (30) days  within  which to  respond  thereto.  If such
Indemnifying  Party does not respond  within such thirty (30) days period,  such
Indemnifying  Party  shall be  obligated  to  compromise  or defend,  at its own
expense and by counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party shall provide reasonably
satisfactory to the Party seeking  indemnity,  such matter and the  Indemnifying
Party shall provide the Party seeking  indemnification  with such  assurances as
may be reasonably  required by the latter to assure that the Indemnifying  Party
will  assume,  and be  responsible  for,  the entire  liability  issue.  If such
Indemnifying  Party does not  respond  within  such  thirty  (30) day period and
rejects  responsibility  for such matter in whole or in part,  the Party seeking
indemnification shall be free to pursue,  without prejudice to any of its rights
hereunder, such remedies as may be available to such Party under applicable law.
The  Party  seeking   indemnification   agrees  to  cooperate   fully  with  the
Indemnifying  Party and its  counsel in the defense  against  any such  asserted
liability.  In any event, the Party seeking indemnification shall have the right
to participate at its own expense in the defense of such asserted liability. Any
compromise of such asserted  liability by the  Indemnifying  Party shall require
the prior written consent of the Party seeking indemnification. If, however, the
Party  seeking  indemnification  refuses  its  consent  to a bona fide  offer of
settlement  which the  Indemnifying  Party wishes to accept,  the Party  seeking
indemnification may continue to pursue such matter, free of any participation by
the   Indemnifying   Party,   at  the  sole   expense   of  the  Party   seeking
indemnification.  In such event, the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to the
Party seeking  indemnification shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of
the offer of  settlement  which the Party  seeking  indemnification  refused  to
accept  plus  the  costs  and  expenses  of such  Party  prior  to the  date the
Indemnifying  Party notifies the Party seeking  indemnification  of the offer of
settlement  and  (ii)  the  actual   out-of-pocket   amount  the  Party  seeking
indemnification  is obligated to pay as a result of such Party's  continuing  to
pursue such an offer.  An  Indemnifying  Party shall be entitled to recover from
the Party  seeking  indemnification  any  additional  expenses  incurred by such
Indemnifying   Party  as  a  result  of  the  decision  of  the  Party   seeking
indemnification to pursue such matter.

     9.4 The obligations under Article 9 shall survive the Closing hereunder and
Termination of this  Agreement.  Purchaser and ZiaSun shall promptly  notify the
responsible party of the existence of any claim, demand or other matter to which
such  indemnification  obligations  would  apply,  and shall  give a  reasonable
opportunity  to defend the same at their own expense  and with  counsel of their
own selection;  provided,  if that party fails to defend the same,  Purchaser or
ZiaSun,  as the case may be,  shall  have the right to  contract  and defend the
same,  and in any event  Purchaser  or ZiaSun,  shall at all times also have the
right fully to  participate  in the defense of, and to  compromise  or settle in
good faith the claim or other matter on behalf,  for the account and at the risk
of the other parties.  If the claim is one that cannot by its nature be defended
solely by ZiaSun,  or Purchaser,  then  Purchaser or ZiaSun shall make available
all information and assistance that Purchaser or ZiaSun may reasonably request.
