or demand, or in any proceeding, action, litigation or order to which Seller or
any Person who has granted a license or other right to use intellectual property
by Seller is a party or subject; nor to the knowledge of Seller is any such
claim, demand, proceeding, action, litigation or court order threatened; (iii)
the conduct of the Business as currently conducted does not, to Seller's
knowledge, materially infringe or conflict with any intellectual property of any
other Person; and (iv) no infringement by any Person of any intellectual

taxes due or claimed to be due from Seller by the Internal Revenue Service or
any other state or local taxing authority with respect to the Business and
accruing prior to the Effective Time.

      5.12 DISCLOSURE. No representation or warranty by Seller contained in this
Agreement, and no statement contained in any document, list, certificate or
other writing furnished or to be furnished by or on behalf of Seller to Buyer or
any of its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material
fact, or omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary, in light of

fairly provide the information required to be provided in any such document,

therewith) (collectively, "DAMAGES") that such Indemnified Buyer Party may
sustain, suffer or incur and that result from, arise out of or relate to:

                        (A)   any inaccuracy of any representation or
warranty of Seller set forth in this Agreement or any of the Seller Related
Instruments;

                        (B)   the nonfulfillment of any covenant, agreement

                                       11
<PAGE>

stockholders, employees, agents, affiliates, successors and assigns) (each, an
"INDEMNIFIED SELLER PARTY") from and against:

                  (i) any Damages that such Indemnified Seller Party may
sustain, suffer or incur and that result from, arise out of or relate to:

                        (A)   any inaccuracy of any representation or
warranty of Buyer set forth in this Agreement or any of the Buyer Related
Instruments;

                        (B)   the nonfulfillment of any covenant, agreement
or other obligation of Buyer set forth in this Agreement or any of the Buyer

result of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of any
Indemnified Seller Party.

            (c) Buyer will not make any claim against Seller (and Seller shall
have no liability for and shall not be required to pay), and Seller will make no
claim against Buyer (and Buyer shall have no liability for and shall not be
required to pay), for indemnification either under this Agreement or pursuant to
any other legal rights or remedies relating to the transactions contemplated
hereby ("INDEMNIFICATION CLAIMS") for: (i) any Damages incurred unless and until
Seller, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, as applicable, shall have
incurred Damages in excess of $25,000.00 in the aggregate (in which event Buyer,
on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, as applicable, shall be entitled
to indemnification either under this Agreement or pursuant to any other legal
rights or remedies relating to the transactions contemplated hereby for all
Damages incurred by such party in excess of such amount) (the "Indemnity
Basket") and (ii) any Damages in excess of an amount equal to the Purchase Price
plus the dollar value of the Assumed Liabilities (the "INDEMNITY CAP");
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, neither the Indemnity Cap nor the Indemnity Basket shall
apply to any Damages related to any willful or fraudulent breach by any party
hereto of any of the representations or warranties or covenants, agreements or
other obligations of such party set forth in this Agreement or any of the Seller
Related Instruments or the Buyer Related Instruments, as applicable.

      7.3 CONDITIONS OF INDEMNIFICATION. The obligations and liabilities of
Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, as indemnifying parties
(each, an "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") to indemnify the Buyer and Seller, as applicable
(each, an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), under Section 7.2 with respect to claims made by
third parties shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

            The Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying
            Party of any Damages with respect to which it seeks indemnification
            promptly after the discovery by such party of any

                                       12
<PAGE>

            matters giving rise to such claim for indemnification; PROVIDED,
            HOWEVER, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as
            provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
            obligations under Section 7.2 unless it shall have been materially
            prejudiced by the omission to provide such notice. In case any Claim
            is brought against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party
            shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, to the
            extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
            reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and after notice
            from the Indemnifying Party of its election so to assume the defense
            thereof, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the
            Indemnified Party under Section 7.2 for any legal or other expense
            subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with
            the defense thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) if the Indemnifying
            Party shall elect not to assume the defense of such Claim or (ii) if
            the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that there may be a
            conflict between the positions of the Indemnifying Party and the
            Indemnified Party in defending such Claim, then separate counsel
            shall be entitled to participate in and conduct such defense, and
            the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any reasonable legal or
            other expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with
            such defense (but not more than one counsel). The Indemnifying Party
            shall not be liable for any settlement of any Claim effected without
            its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
            withheld. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified
            Party's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
            unreasonably withheld, settle or compromise any Claim to which the
            Indemnified Party is a party or consent to entry of any judgment in
            respect thereof. The Indemnifying Party further agrees that it will
            not, without the Indemnified Party's prior written consent, settle
            or compromise any Claim or consent to entry of any judgment in
            respect thereof in any pending or threatened Claim in respect of
            which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the
            Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such Claim)
            unless such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional
            release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of
            such Claim.

      7.4 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement,
the remedies provided herein shall be cumulative and shall not preclude
assertion by any party hereto of any other rights or the seeking of any other
remedies against any other party hereto.

             ARTICLE VIII. OTHER OBLIGATIONS OF SELLER AND BUYER

      8.1 ACCESS. Seller shall permit Buyer and its counsel, accountants and
other representatives full access during normal business hours to all of the
personnel, offices, properties, books and records, contracts and commitments of
Seller relating to the Business in

                                       13
<PAGE>

order that Buyer may have full opportunity to make such investigations as it
shall desire to make of the Stores, the Purchased Assets and the Business in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall
furnish Buyer during such period with all such additional financial and
operating data and other information as Buyer or its representatives may from
time to time reasonably request relating thereto.

      8.2 CONSENTS. Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall
use their respective best efforts to obtain prior to the Effective Time all
consents necessary, in the opinion of counsel to Buyer, in connection with the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby including, without
limitation, the consent of each party to any Lease to the assignment of Seller's
rights thereunder to Buyer at the Effective Time in consideration of Buyer's
assumption of Seller's liabilities and obligations thereunder, to the extent
arising from and after the Effective Time. For purposes of this Section "best
efforts" shall not include payment of any sum to any Person as consideration for
such consent. Buyer agrees to assist and cooperate with Seller in obtaining such
consents including, without limitation, by way of furnishing financial and other
information as may reasonably be requested by Seller or any lessor or other
third party.

      8.3 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS. From the date of this Agreement to the
consummation of the Closing, Seller shall conduct the business, operations and
activities of the Business only in the ordinary course of business, and shall
cause all transactions relating to the Business to be effected only in the
ordinary course of business.

      8.4 COVENANT TO SATISFY CONDITIONS. Seller and Buyer shall use their best
efforts to insure that the conditions set forth in Articles IX and X hereof,
respectively, are satisfied, insofar as such matters are within their respective
control.

      8.5 CONFIDENTIALITY. Seller and Buyer shall hold, and shall use their best
efforts to cause their respective auditors, attorneys, financial advisors,
bankers and other consultants and advisors to hold, in strict confidence, unless
compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other
requirements of law, all documents and information concerning the other party
furnished to it by the other party or its representatives in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement (except to the extent that such
information shall be shown to have been (a) previously known by the party to
which it was furnished, (b) in the public domain through no fault of such party
or (c) later lawfully acquired from other sources by the party to which it was
furnished), and each party shall not release or disclose such information to any
other Person, except its auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and
other consultants and advisors in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, each of whom shall agree to maintain the confidentiality of
such information as set forth in this Section. Each party shall be deemed to
have satisfied its obligation to hold confidential information concerning or
supplied by the other party if it exercises the same care as it takes to
preserve confidentiality for its own similar information.

      8.6 TRANSITION AGREEMENT. At the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall enter
into a transition agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT
C (the "TRANSITION AGREEMENT") pursuant to which Seller will provide certain
transition services to Buyer for the period of six months following the Closing
Date, for aggregate consideration of $300,000 payable in full at the Closing.
Upon execution of delivery of this Agreement by the parties,

                                       14
<PAGE>

Buyer and Seller and their respective agents shall cooperate with respect to the
preparation of a mutually acceptable transition plan for the operation of the
Business after the Effective Time (the "TRANSITION PLAN") and a list of
transition services (both day-to-day operational and administrative services and
organizational and other "start-up" services) that Seller shall provide to Buyer
after the Closing Date (the "TRANSITION SERVICES"). The Transition Plan and the
Transition Services shall be incorporated by reference into the Transition
Agreement.

      8.7   NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION.

            (a) Seller hereby covenants and agrees that for a period of two
years after the Closing Date, Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, as a
proprietor, partner, stockholder, consultant, joint venturer, investor, lender,
employee or in any other capacity engage in, or own, manage, operate or control
or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of any entity
which engages anywhere in the world in the retail sale of sports memorabilia and
collectibles or activities similar thereto; PROVIDED, that Seller shall not be
prohibited from owning in the aggregate 5% or less of any class of securities of
a publicly traded corporation engaged in the Business or such activities.

            (b) Seller and Buyer hereby covenant and agree, except as
contemplated in Section 4.1, that for a period of two years after the date
hereof, neither party shall (i) solicit or, directly or indirectly, cause to be
solicited for employment, any person who is, at the time of such solicitation,
an employee of the other party or any of its Affiliates, or was, at any time
during the one-year period prior to such solicitation, an employee of the other
party or any of its Affiliates; or (ii) employ or, directly or indirectly, cause
to be employed, any person who was, at the time of such action, an employee of
the other party or any of its Affiliates, or was, at any time during the
one-year period prior to such action, an employee of the other party or any of
its Affiliates.

            (c) Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that if either party or
any of its respective Affiliates breaches the provisions of Section 8.7(a)
and/or (b), any remedy at law would be inadequate and that the other party, in
addition to seeking monetary damages in connection with any such breach, shall
be entitled to seek specific performance, injunctive and other equitable relief
to prevent or restrain a breach of such Section or to enforce the provisions of
such Section. It is the intent of the parties that, in the event a court of
competent jurisdiction determines that the scope and/or duration of the
covenants set forth in Section 8.7(a) and/or (b) is excessive so as to render
the covenant unenforceable as written, such court shall reduce the scope and/or
duration of such covenant to the minimum extent necessary to make the covenant
enforceable.

      8.8 FURTHER ASSURANCES; COOPERATION. Each of the parties agrees at any
time and from time to time after the Closing, at the request of the other party
hereto, to execute and deliver such other documents and instruments of transfer
or assignment or assumption and to do all such further acts and things as shall
reasonably be necessary or desirable to effectuate the transactions contemplated
hereby, including, without limitation, the transfer to Buyer of the Business and
the Purchased Assets free and clear of all liens and encumbrances.

                                       15
<PAGE>

      8.9 RECORDS, FURTHER INFORMATION. From and after the date hereof and
following the Closing Date, upon reasonable notice given in accordance with this
Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall give, or cause to be given, to the
representatives, employees, counsel and accountants of the other party, access,
during normal business hours, to all original agreements, documents, books,
records and files in its possession or in the possession of any of its
Affiliates relating to the Business (the "RECORDS") relating to periods prior to
or after the Closing Date, as the case may be, and shall permit such persons to
examine and copy such Records to the extent reasonably requested by the other
party in connection with the preparation of tax and financial reporting matters,
audits, legal proceedings, governmental investigations and other business
purposes; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing herein shall obligate any party to
take actions that would unreasonably disrupt the normal course of its business.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, prior to Closing, Buyer shall
have the right to (a) inspect the Records, reports, permits, applications,
monitoring results, studies, correspondence, data and any other information or
documents relevant to environmental, health or safety matters relating to the
Business; (b) inspect all buildings and equipment at the properties currently
owned, leased or operated by Seller relating to the Business; and (c) conduct
tests of the soil, surface or ground waters at, in, on or beneath such
properties relating to the Business, as may be recommended by an environmental
consultant engaged by Buyer; PROVIDED that in each case, such tests and
inspections shall be conducted only (i) during regular business hours upon
reasonable notice and (ii) in a manner that will not unduly disrupt or interfere
with the operation of the business of the Company.

      8.10 OUTSTANDING LEASE CONSENTS; MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT. In the event the
parties are unable to obtain the consent of each party to any Lease to the
assignment thereof to Buyer as contemplated by this Agreement (the "OUTSTANDING
LEASE CONSENTS"), notwithstanding the satisfaction of the Minimum Lease Consent
Condition and the consummation of the Closing, at the Closing, Buyer and Seller
shall negotiate in good faith the terms of and enter into a management agreement
with respect to each Store subject to a Lease for which the consent to
assignment and assumption was not obtained, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Buyer and Seller, pursuant to which the Store shall be managed
and operated for the benefit of Buyer (without any obligation of Seller to
replenish any inventory and with all net economic benefits of the operation of
the Store subject of such Lease to inure to the benefit of Buyer), for a period
expiring on the earlier to occur of the expiration of the then-current term of
such Lease and the date upon which Buyer and Seller obtain the applicable
Outstanding Lease Consent (the "MANAGEMENT PERIOD"), during which Management
Period Seller and Buyer shall continue to use their respective best efforts to
obtain the applicable Outstanding Lease Consent. If Buyer and Seller are unable
to obtain the applicable Outstanding Lease Consent prior to the expiration of
the Management Period, upon expiration of the Management Period, or such earlier
time as Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree, Seller shall cause all Purchased
Assets located at the Store subject of such Lease to be delivered to a single
location designated by Buyer within the continental United States, the cost of
which shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller, without reduction of the
Purchase Price, whereupon Seller shall have no further obligation to seek or
obtain such Outstanding Lease Consent and shall not be liable to Buyer for its
failure to have obtained such Outstanding Lease Consent.

      8.11 SHARED LOCATIONS. Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the
Stores identified on SCHEDULE 8.11 are subject of Leases of shared space with
Seller's retail video

                                       16
<PAGE>

business. On or prior to the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall mutually
determine whether demising walls or other permanent partitions need to be
installed to segregate the portion of such space dedicated to the Business from
the portion of such space dedicated to Seller's retail video business, which
segregation shall be consistent with the current use of such space. If such
demising walls or other permanent partitions are required, the cost of such
segregation shall be borne by Seller and Buyer equally. Notwithstanding any
prior practice of Seller, from and after the Effective Time, the rent and other
sums payable under such Leases shall be allocated between Buyer and Seller in
accordance with the respective portions of the overall space utilized by their
respective businesses. Buyer and Seller shall mutually exercise, if at all, any
and all rights, including renewal and expansion rights, under such Leases.

      8.12 APPORTIONMENTS. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this
Agreement, all rent, additional rent and other sums payable under the Leases and
the Assigned Contracts shall be pro rated between Buyer and Seller as of the
Effective Time. Whether amounts are allocable for the above purposes for the
period before or after the Effective Time shall be determined in accordance with
GAAP.

      8.13 OUTSTANDING PURCHASE ORDERS. Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees
that, in the ordinary course of Seller's business (including the Business),
Seller issues purchase orders for inventory and allocates portions of such
inventory between the Business and Seller's retail video game business. To the
extent any such purchase orders are outstanding at the Effective Time or placed
with Buyer's consent after the Effective Time, and the inventory relating to
such purchase orders is not located in any Store or either of Seller's
distribution centers located in West Chester, Pennsylvania and Louisville,
Kentucky at the Effective Time, Seller will sell to Buyer, and Buyer will
purchase from Seller, whenever received after the Effective Time, all inventory
subject of such invoices and allocated to the Business in accordance with past
practice, in consideration for which Buyer shall pay to Seller, within 30 days
after receipt of such inventory, the invoice price for such inventory, including
applicable shipping costs for its allocated share.

                ARTICLE IX. CONDITIONS TO OBLIGATIONS OF BUYER

satisfaction or waiver, at or before the Closing, of each of the following
conditions:

as of such date, and each of the representations and warranties of Seller that

                              TRANSITION AGREEMENT

      THIS TRANSITION AGREEMENT (this "AGREEMENT") is entered into as of
_____________ __, 2002, by and between Electronics Boutique of America Inc., a
Pennsylvania corporation ("SELLER") and Sports Collectibles Acquisition
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("BUYER").

      WHEREAS, Seller and Buyer are parties to an Asset Purchase Agreement,
dated as of October 10, 2002 (the "ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), pursuant to which
Buyer has agreed to purchase the Business (as defined in the Asset Purchase
Agreement) from Seller;

      WHEREAS, the Business uses certain services provided by Seller;

      WHEREAS, as a material inducement to Buyer to execute and deliver the
Asset Purchase Agreement, Seller has agreed to provide certain services to Buyer
for the purpose of enabling Buyer to manage an orderly transition in its
operation of the Business, as set forth in this Agreement.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to
be legally bound, agree as follows:

      1.    DEFINITIONS.

            1.1   "BUSINESS" shall have the meaning set forth in the Asset
Purchase Agreement.

            1.2 "TRANSITION PLAN" shall mean the operational plan attached
hereto as SCHEDULE 1.2.

            1.3 "TRANSITION SERVICES" shall mean the aggregate of all services
as set forth in SCHEDULE 1.3. A Transition Service shall mean any specific
service set forth in SCHEDULE 1.3.

            1.4 Capitalized terms not expressly defined in this Agreement shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

      2.    PROVISION OF SERVICES; PAYMENTS.

            2.1 As an inducement to Buyer to execute and deliver the Asset
Purchase Agreement, Seller shall provide the Transition Services to Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement in a manner consistent with the manner they have
heretofore been provided to the Business while it was operated by Seller;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, with respect to day-to-day operational and
administrative services for the Business, Seller shall not be required to
provide any new or different services or greater level of services (as to
quality or quantity) than historically provided by Seller or its agents to the
Business.

<PAGE>

            2.2 Following execution of this Agreement, representatives of Buyer
and Seller shall meet on a bi-weekly basis to monitor each of Buyer's and
Seller's progress under, and compliance with, the terms of the Transition Plan.

            2.3 In consideration of Seller's willingness to provide Transition
Services to Buyer, Buyer shall pay to Seller the sum of $300,000, which sum
shall be due and payable upon execution of this Agreement. In the event that
Seller fails to provide a Transition Service (a "SERVICE DELIVERY FAILURE"),
Buyer shall notify Seller of such failure and Seller shall have ten days to cure
such Service Delivery Failure. If Seller shall not have cured such Service
Delivery Failure by the end of such ten day period (or such shorter period as
the Buyer and Seller may agree), Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith
to determine the amount of any refund to which Buyer is entitled as a result of
the Service Delivery Failure and, following such determination, Seller shall
promptly provide such refund to Buyer. Buyer shall not be entitled to make a
claim for a Service Delivery Failure if Buyer has not cooperated with Seller
under this Article 2.

            2.4 Within 30 days after receipt of an invoice from Seller therefor,
Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all increased costs and expenses incurred by
Seller with respect to the Transition Services (as compared to historical costs
and expenses incurred by Seller with respect to such services on its own behalf)
during the period between the date of execution of the Asset Purchase Agreement
and the Termination Date (as defined herein) for which Seller has obtained
Buyer's prior written approval.

            2.5 Seller shall not be obligated to hire, retain or engage any
additional personnel with respect to the provision of the Transition Services,
nor shall Seller be required to purchase, lease or license any additional
equipment, hardware or software in connection with the provision of the
Transition Services, unless necessary for Seller to continue to provide the
Transition Services as required under this Agreement, which obligation shall
nevertheless be subject to the fulfillment by Buyer of its obligations with
respect to any increased costs and expenses incurred by Seller in connection
therewith as set forth in Section 2.4.

            2.6 Seller shall be excused from performance of its obligations
under this Agreement to the extent that performance is not permitted by any
circumstances reasonably beyond its control, including but not limited to, acts
of God, fire, explosion, labor strikes or compliance with any law or request of
a governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, and subject to Section 2.3, in the event that circumstances would cause
Seller to be unable to render Transition Services to Buyer without adverse
consequences to Seller, Seller shall be excused from rendering such Transition
Services.

      3. CONFIDENTIALITY. Each of Seller and Buyer will treat and hold as
confidential all information concerning the Business, the Assets, the Assumed
Liabilities and information regarding the respective business operations of the
parties and their Affiliates which is of a type that in accordance with the
disclosing party's past practices has been treated as confidential or
proprietary ("CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION"), and refrain from using any
Confidential Information except in connection with this Agreement. Each of
Seller and Buyer will instruct each of its employees, agents and independent
contractors to keep all Confidential Information confidential in accordance with
this SECTION 3. If either party (or any of such party's employees, agents or

                                       2
<PAGE>

independent contractors providing Transition Services) is requested or required
(by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal
proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar
process) to disclose any Confidential Information, then it will notify the other
party promptly of the request or requirement so that such party may seek an
appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this
SECTION 3. If in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver
hereunder, a party is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any
Confidential Information in connection with any legal proceeding, interrogatory,
subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process, then it may disclose
such Confidential Information in connection therewith; provided, that it will
use reasonable commercial efforts to obtain, at its expense, an order or other
assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential
Information.

      4. TERMS; TERMINATION. Seller shall provide to Buyer such Transition
Services as are requested by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement for a period
through and including the date which is six (6) months from the Closing Date
(the "TERMINATION DATE"). Following the Termination Date or earlier termination
of this Agreement, Seller shall cooperate with Buyer to transfer all original
records (in any format) in the possession of Seller relating to the Transition
Services provided hereunder, but only to the extent such original records are
divisible and transferable from such records of Seller unrelated to the
Business. If such original records are not divisible and transferable from such
records of Seller unrelated to the Business, Seller shall only be required to
transfer a copy of such records. Upon the Termination Date or earlier
termination of this Agreement, Seller shall cooperate with Buyer to transfer all
information and materials regarding the Business including, without limitation,
inventory of Buyer in the possession of Seller, if any, to Buyer.

      5. NO IMPLIED ASSIGNMENTS OR LICENSES. Nothing in this Agreement is to be
construed as an assignment or grant of any right, title or interest in any
trademark, copyright, design or trade dress, patent right or other intellectual
or industrial property right other than as expressly provided for in the
Transition Services or Transition Plan. This Section 5 shall have no effect on
any assignment or license under the Asset Purchase Agreement.

      6. RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. The parties are independent contractors under
this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth herein, neither party has the
authority to, and each party agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly
contract any obligations of any kind in the name of or chargeable against the
other party without such party's prior written consent.

      7.    INDEMNIFICATION.

            7.1 Seller hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Buyer and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees and
agents from and against any and all liabilities, losses, claims, damages, and
expenses of any nature, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or
resulting from any default or breach by Seller in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Seller shall not be
liable to Buyer for any amounts in excess of the aggregate amount payable
hereunder for Transition Services (net of reimbursed costs and expenses) and for
claims covered by Seller's general liability and property insurance policy.

            7.2 Buyer hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Seller and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees
and agents from and against any and all liabilities, losses, claims, damages,
and expenses of any nature, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of
or resulting from any default or breach by Buyer in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Buyer shall not be
liable to Seller for any amounts in excess of the aggregate amount payable
hereunder for Transition Services (net of reimbursed costs and expenses).

            7.3 Claims for indemnification under Sections 7.1 and 7.2 shall be
made pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article VII of the Asset Purchase
Agreement, as is appropriate. Nothing herein shall limit the rights to
indemnification, or the obligations to indemnify, of the parties under the Asset
Purchase Agreement.

            7.4 Between the date hereof and the Termination Date, Seller shall
continue all of its existing general liability and property policies of
insurance (or comparable insurance) with respect to its distribution center or
other property of Buyer in the care or custody of Seller in full force and
effect and at least at such levels as are in effect on the date hereof (and not
cancel any such insurance or take, or fail to take, any action that would enable
the insurers under such policies to avoid liability for claims arising out of
occurrences prior to the Termination Date).

      8. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. This Agreement may be amended and any provision
of this Agreement may be waived; provided, that any such amendment or waiver (a)
will be binding upon Seller only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a
writing executed by Seller and (b) will be binding upon Buyer only if such
amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by Buyer. No course of
dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement will
be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or
any rights or obligations of any Party under or by reason of this Agreement. No
failure by any Party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant,
duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or
remedy consequent upon a breach thereof will constitute a waiver of any such
breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition.

      9. NOTICES. All notices, demands and other communications given or
delivered under this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have

      16. GOVERNING LAW. All questions concerning the construction, validity and
interpretation of this Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving
effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision that would cause the
application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal law of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will control the interpretation and construction of
this Agreement (and all schedules and exhibits hereto), even if under that
jurisdiction's choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of
some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply.

OF THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT
