date of registration or application for registration and the name in which
registration was applied for) concerning (x) all of RLG's registrations of
trademarks and of other marks, trade names or other trade rights, and all
pending applications for any such registrations and all of RLG's patents and
registered copyrights and all pending applications therefor, (y) all computer
software used by RLG in the conduct of its business ("Computer Software")
indicating whether such Computer Software is owned or licensed and, if licensed,

is currently conducted, (all of the items referred to in this clause (i) being
"Intellectual Property Rights") and (ii) identifies any intellectual property
rights that any third party owns and that RLG uses or proposes to use in its

use) all Intellectual Property Rights now used or proposed to be used in its
business and has taken all reasonably necessary or appropriate action to protect
the Intellectual Property Rights. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule
4.13.1, no Person has a right to receive a royalty or similar payment in respect
of any Intellectual Property Rights pursuant to any contractual arrangements
entered into by RLG or otherwise. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule
4.13, RLG has not received notice nor has the Stockholder any reason to believe
that the use by RLG of the Intellectual Property Rights is interfering with,
infringing upon or otherwise violating the rights of any third party in or to
such Intellectual Property Rights, and no proceedings have been instituted
against or notices received by RLG alleging that RLG's use of any Intellectual
Property Rights infringes upon or otherwise violates any rights of a third party
in or to such Intellectual Property Rights, which infringement or violation
could have a Material Adverse Effect. The Intellectual Property Rights are all
those materially necessary for the operation of the business of RLG as it is
currently conducted. No employee of RLG has entered into any Contract that
restricts or limits in any way the scope or type of work in which the employee
may be engaged or requires the employee to transfer, assign, or disclose
information concerning his or her work to anyone other than RLG.

                  4.13.2 The source codes for all Computer Software have been
placed in back-up files that are securely stored in a location other than the
Facility or Facilities where such Computer Software is used. All databases used
in the business of RLG are periodically (at least once every week) backed-up,
and such backed-up materials are moved to and securely stored at locations other
than the Facility or Facilities where such databases are used.

                  4.13.3 To the knowledge of RLG and the Stockholder, all
Computer Software utilized by RLG ("Computer Software") supports the use, entry
or creation of dates on or after January 1, 2000, so that when such a date is
either processed, entered into or is intended to be generated as a result of the
operation of the Computer Software, the Computer Software shall not (i) fail or
produce incorrect date results or (ii) cause any other programs to fail or to
generate errors.

         4.14 LITIGATION. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule 4.14, there
is no charge, complaint, action, order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree
outstanding or claim, suit, litigation, proceeding, labor dispute, arbitrable
action or investigation (collectively, "Actions") pending or, to the

                                       13

Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Stockholder and RLG, RLG is not in
default with respect to any judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree of any
court or governmental agency, and there are no unsatisfied judgments against RLG
or the business of RLG. To the knowledge of RLG and/or the Stockholder, there is
not a reasonable likelihood of an adverse determination of any pending Actions
that could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result
in the payment of a judgment in excess of $10,000 or have a Material Adverse
Effect. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule 4.14, each Action pending or,
to the knowledge of RLG and Stockholder, threatened (whether or not disclosed in
Disclosure Schedule 4.14), is covered by insurance of reputable and solvent
insurance companies, and each such applicable Insurance Policy is described in

and a general description of the type of coverage provided) maintained by RLG on
its business, Assets or Personnel. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule
4.18, to the knowledge of the Stockholder and RLG all of such policies are
sufficient for compliance with all requirements of law and of all Contracts to
which RLG is a party, except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be
expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. RLG is not in default under
any of such policies or binders, and RLG has not failed to give any notice or to

any assistance or any information to or otherwise cooperate with any person in
connection with any such inquiry, proposal or transaction. In the event that RLG
or any of the Stockholder, or any of their respective Affiliates, receives an
unsolicited offer for such a transaction or obtains information that such an
offer is likely to be made, the Stockholder will provide the Buyer with notice
thereof as soon as practical after receipt, including the identity of the
prospective purchaser or soliciting party.

will be settled by a court of competent jurisdiction, without jury trial, in
accordance with Section 10.5 hereof.

                  9.3.4 DEFENSE OF CLAIMS. If a claim for Damages (an "Indemnity
Claim") is to be made by a party entitled to indemnification hereunder against
the indemnifying party, the party claiming such indemnification shall, subject
to Section 9.3 hereof, give written notice (a "Claim Notice") to the
indemnifying party as soon as practicable after the party entitled to
indemnification becomes aware of any fact, condition or event which may give
rise to Damages for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 9.3.
If any lawsuit or enforcement action is filed against any party entitled to the
benefit of indemnity hereunder, written notice thereof shall be given to the
indemnifying party as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 15
calendar days after the service of the citation or summons). The failure of any
indemnified party to give timely notice hereunder shall not affect rights to
indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying party
demonstrates actual prejudice caused by such failure. After such notice, the
indemnified party against which such claim has been asserted will (upon
delivering notice to such effect to the indemnifying party) have the right to
undertake, at the indemnifying party's cost and expense, the defense, compromise
or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the
indemnifying party, provided that the indemnifying party shall have the
opportunity to advise and comment on the Indemnity Claim. The indemnified party
will keep the indemnifying party reasonably informed of the progress of any such
defense, compromise or settlement. The indemnifying party shall be liable for
any settlement of any action effected pursuant to and in accordance with this
Section 9.3 and for any final judgment (subject to any right of appeal), and the
indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless an indemnified party
from and against any Damages by reason of such settlement or judgment.

                  The obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto with
respect to their respective indemnities pursuant to this Section 9.3 resulting
from any Claim shall be subject to the following additional terms and
conditions:

                           (i) The indemnifying party shall have the right to
undertake, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, the defense
or opposition to such Claim.

                           (ii) In the event that the indemnifying party shall
elect not to undertake such defense or opposition, or within ten (10) days after
notice of any such Claim from the indemnified party shall fail to defend or
oppose, the indemnified party (upon further written notice to the indemnifying
party) shall have the right to undertake the defense, opposition, compromise or
settlement of such Claim, by counsel or other representatives of its own
choosing, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party
(subject to the right of the indemnifying party to assume defense of or
opposition to such Claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final
determination thereof).

                           (iii) Anything in this Section 9.3.4 to the contrary
notwithstanding: (a) the indemnified party shall have the right, at its own cost
and expense, to participate in the defense, opposition, compromise or settlement
of the Claim; (b) the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified
party's written consent, settle or compromise any Claim or consent to entry of
any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving
by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all
liability in respect of such Claim; and (c) in the event that the indemnifying
party undertakes defense of or opposition to any Claim, the indemnified party,
by counsel or other representative of its own choosing and at its sole cost and
expense, shall have the right to consult with the indemnifying party and its
counsel or other representatives concerning such Claim and the indemnifying
party and the indemnified party and their respective counsel or other
representatives shall cooperate in good faith with respect to such Claim.

                  9.3.5 LIABILITY. The provisions of this Section shall cover
all liabilities of whatever kind, nature or description relating, directly or
indirectly, to liability, litigation (to the extent not covered by insurance) or
claims against the Buyer, RLG or the Stockholder (other than liabilities or
claims against any Person acquired by the Buyer or RLG after the Closing) in
connection with, arising out of, or relating to services performed or products
sold by RLG or their agents or contractors prior to the Closing.

                  9.3.6 BROKERS AND FINDERS. Pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 9.3, each of the Buyer and the Stockholder shall indemnify, hold
harmless and defend the other party from the payment of any and all broker's and
finder's expenses, commissions, fees or other forms of compensation which may be
due or payable from or by the indemnifying party (and in the case of the
Stockholder, if due or payable from or by RLG), or may have been earned by any
third party acting on behalf of the indemnifying party in connection with the
negotiation and execution hereof and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby.

                  9.3.7 REPRESENTATIVES. No individual Representative of any
party shall be personally liable for any Damages under the provisions contained
in this Section 9.3. Nothing herein shall relieve either party of any liability
to make any payment expressly required to be made by such party pursuant to this
Agreement.

                  9.3.8 DAMAGES. As used in this Section 9.3, the term "Damages"

(whether or not arising out of third-party claims), including, without
limitation, interest, penalties, costs of mitigation, losses in connection with
any Environmental Law (including, without limitation, any clean-up or remedial
action), lost profits and other losses resulting from any shutdown or
curtailment of operations of the damaged entity, damages to the environment,
reasonable attorneys' fees, all amounts which would constitute Damages but for
payments received under any insurance policy the premium for which has been paid
by any Person that is an Affiliate of the other party, other than the damaged
entity, and all amounts paid in investigation, defense or settlement of any of
the foregoing. The term "Damages" as used in this Section 9.3 is not limited to
matters asserted by third parties against the Stockholder or the Buyer, but
includes Damages incurred or sustained by the Stockholder or the Buyer in the
absence of third-party claims.

                  9.3.9 MATERIALITY. The parties recognize that many of the
representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement are
qualified by the term "MATERIAL". For purposes of this Agreement, the parties
hereby agree that a "MATERIAL" event(s) has occurred if the impact of such
event(s) has resulted or is reasonably likely to result in costs, expenses
and/or damages for any event(s) singularly or in the aggregate in excess of

                                       28
<PAGE>   33

                  9.3.10 PAYMENTS. The parties hereby agree that any payment
with respect to any indemnity required pursuant to this Section 9.3 may be
offset against any payments otherwise due by the indemnified party to the
indemnifying party.

                  9.3.11 LIMITATION. The parties agree that the indemnification
provisions set forth in this Article shall be limited to all Claims,
individually or in the aggregate, in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000.00) (the "Threshold"). Once a Claim(s) exceeds the Threshold, if a
party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 9.3, such party shall
recover all appropriate funds, as provided in this Section 9.3, only to the
extent that such indemnification amount exceeds the Threshold amount. Further,
the indemnitors shall not be liable for any liabilities resulting from Claims
that are covered by any insurance policy or other indemnity or contribution
agreement unless, and only to the extent that, the full limit of such insurance
policy, indemnity or contribution agreement has been exceeded. The party
entitled to indemnification shall have a duty to mitigate its damages.

                                    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum
indemnity obligation of any indemnifying party with respect to any indemnity
required pursuant to this Section 9.3 shall not exceed 3 shall not exceed the
amount of the Acquisition Consideration. For purposes of this section only, a
share of CKHI Stock shall be valued as follows: (1) if the principal market for
such stock is a national securities exchange, the 120 day trailing average of
the closing prices per share of such stock as reported by such exchange or on a
composite tape reflecting transactions on such exchange, (2) if the principal
market for such stock is not a national securities exchange and such stock is
quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market ("NASDAQ"), and (i) if actual closing price
information is available with respect to such stock, the 120 day trailing
average of the closing prices per share of such stock on Nasdaq, or (ii) if such
information is not available, the 120 day trailing average of the bid prices per
share of such stock on Nasdaq, or (3) if the principal market for such stock is
not a national securities exchange and such stock is not quoted on Nasdaq, the
120 day trailing average of the closing prices per share of such stock as
reported on the OTC Bulletin Board Service or by National Quotation Bureau,
Incorporated or a comparable service; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if clauses (1),
(2) and (3) of this Section are all inapplicable, or if no trades have been made
or no quotes are available for such day, the fair market value of such stock
shall be determined as follows: The Stockholder and CKHI shall each appoint an
appraiser and the two appraisers appointed shall have fifteen (15) days to
appoint a third appraiser. Each of such appraisers shall be engaged in the
business of providing appraisals of stock similar to the CKHI Stock. The
Stockholder and CKHI shall pay the fee of the appraisers it appoints plus
one-half of the third appraiser's fee. Within thirty (30) days following the
appointment of the third appraiser, the two originally selected appraisers shall
each submit a sealed appraisal to the Stockholder and CKHI. If after the
appraisals have been submitted and the Stockholder and CKHI are unable to agree
upon an acceptable fair market value within fifteen (15) days, the third
appraiser shall select one of the two previously submitted appraisals as the
Fair Market Value of a share of CKHI Stock. The selection by the third appraiser
shall be final and binding upon the parties. Any delay caused by the appraisal
procedures shall cause the closings otherwise contemplated herein to accommodate
such delay.

         9.4 CERTAIN TAX MATTERS. The following provisions shall govern the
allocation of responsibility as between the Buyer and RLG on the one hand and
the Stockholder on the other hand for certain tax matters following the Closing:

                  (a) For any Tax years ending on or before the Closing Date,
the Stockholder shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns for RLG
which are required to (or pursuant to an extension may) be filed after the
Closing Date. Subject to the requirements of applicable law, each such Tax
Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the RLG's past practices.
Each income Tax Return of RLG shall be submitted to the Buyer at least 30 days
prior to the due date (including any extension thereof) for filing such Tax
Returns, and the Stockholder shall permit the Buyer to make comments on each
such Tax Return prior to the filing thereof. The Stockholder shall file timely
or cause to be filed timely such Tax Returns. The Buyer agrees that it will
consent to an election of RLG to close

                                       29
<PAGE>   34

its books for federal tax purposes as of the Closing Date, in accordance with
Section 1362(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and that
the "S short year" of RLG (as such term is defined in Code Section 1362(e))
ending on the Closing Date will be considered a Tax year ending on the Closing
Date for purposes of this Section 9.4. RLG and the Stockholder agrees that he
will consent to an election pursuant to Section 338(h)(10) of the Code by filing
Form 8023 such that RLG shall be treated as having sold all of its assets at the
Effective Date at fair market value in a single transaction and shall be treated
as a new corporation which purchased all of such assets as of the beginning of
the day after the Effective Date provided, however, Buyer shall pay the
Stockholder with respect to any tax differential that results from such
election.

                  (b) The Buyer, RLG, and the Stockholder shall 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 9.4 and any audit, litigation
or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include
provision of appropriate powers of attorney or similar authorizations, 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. CKHI shall retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters
pertinent to RLG relating to any tax periods and shall abide by all record
retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and shall give the
Stockholder reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or
discarding any such book and records prior to the expiration of the applicable
statute of limitations for that tax period, and if the Stockholder so request in
the event of any proposed destruction or discarding of the books and records,
CKHI shall allow the Stockholder to take possession of such books and records.
Buyer and the Stockholder shall, upon request, use their best efforts to obtain
any certificate or other document from any governmental authority or any other
Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could
be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby). Each party shall pay its own expenses incurred in
complying with this Section 9.4(b).

                  (c) The Stockholder shall, at their expense, be entitled to
control any Tax audit of RLG to the extent such audit affects or may affect the
amount or character of income, gain or loss includible by the Stockholder for
periods or portions thereof ending on or before the Closing Date. The Buyer
shall control all Tax audit issues of RLG that the Stockholder are not entitled,
or does not elect, to control.
