                    Date as specified in Annex A and (B) contains square footage
                    of at least the amount of square footage for such Location
                    specified on Annex A.  With respect to those Buyer Offices
                    for which the Transition Period is 180 days after the
                    Closing Date and for the Buyer Offices located in Boston and
                    Washington, D.C., the parties hereto acknowledge and agree
                    that D&T has satisfied its obligations under this Section
                    2.2(a)(ii).  In addition, within 12 months after the Closing
                    Date, D&T shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
                    identify to Buyer office space in the suburbs of Chicago,
                    Illinois that is located in at least a B class building and
                    contains at least 1,365 square feet of space and office
                    space in Austin, Texas that is located in at least a B class
                    building and contains at least 1,300 square feet of space;

                    (iii)  Buyer shall relocate each Buyer Office (other than
                    the Buyer Offices located at the Locations described in
                    Section 2.2(a)(iv)) no later than the end of the applicable
                    Transition Period to either (A) the office space identified
                    by D&T pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(ii) or (B) such other
                    office space as may be identified by Buyer; provided,
                    however, that, (x) if such relocation of any Buyer Office is
                    delayed as a result of circumstances that are unforeseen by
                    Buyer, not within Buyer's or the Company's control and
                    relate to the construction or "building out" of facilities
                    in the office space, then Buyer shall have up to an
                    additional 45 days (which may be included in, but shall not
                    be in addition to, the 120-day period, if any, referred to
                    in clause (y) below) after the end of the applicable
                    Transition Period to make such relocation; (y) if D&T has
                    not identified office space pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(ii)
                    at least 90 days prior to the end of the applicable
                    Transition Period for any Location, then D&T shall notify
                    Buyer, and Buyer shall have up to an additional 120 days
                    (which may be included in, but shall not be in addition to,
                    the 45-day period, if any, referred to in clause (x) above)
                    after the end of the applicable Transition Period to
                    relocate the Buyer Office at such Location; and (z) D&T
                    shall continue to provide Ancillary Services (as defined
                    herein) in accordance with the terms hereof with respect to
                    any such Buyer Office during any such additional period
                    referred to in clause (x) or (y) above; and, provided,
                    further, that, notwithstanding any other provision of this
                    Agreement to the contrary, (1) with respect to

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

                    each Buyer Office for which the Transition Period is 540
                    days after the Closing Date and with respect to the Buyer
                    Offices located in Boston and Washington, D.C., Buyer shall
                    not be entitled to any extension of the applicable time
                    period pursuant to clause (x) or (y) above and (2) with
                    respect to each Buyer Office for which the Transition Period
                    is 360 days after the Closing Date, Buyer may only extend
                    the applicable time period pursuant to clause (x) (that is,
                    up to an additional 45 days after the end of the applicable
                    Transition Period) if such relocation of any such Buyer
                    Office is delayed as a result of circumstances that are
                    unforeseen by Buyer and are not within Buyer's or the
                    Company's control (including, without limitation,
                    circumstances that relate to the construction or "building
                    out" of facilities in the office space or the negotiation of
                    leases for such office space); and

                    (iv) with respect to certain Locations identified on Annex
                    A, Buyer, at its own cost, will render each Buyer Office at
                    each such Location into a Fully Separate Office (as defined
                    herein) and shall enter into a separate sublease with D&T
                    for such Fully Separate Office, in each case, prior to the
                    end of the applicable Transition Period.

              (b)   In the event that D&T identifies office space for any
Location pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(ii) that is then leased by D&T and is to be
subleased to Buyer, then any such sublease, as well as any sublease entered into
pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(iv), shall (i) be guaranteed by the Company, (ii) be
at an amount equal to the greater of the fair market value or the amount paid by
D&T for such space and (iii) have a term of such duration as shall be approved
by the D&T office managing partner responsible for the subleased space and, in
any event, shall not exceed the term of the lease between D&T and the landlord
for such space. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge
and agree that D&T has no obligation to enter into any such sublease with Buyer
pursuant to this Section 2.2(b), except to the extent provided in Section
2.2(a)(iv).

              (c)   In the event that in order for Buyer to lease any office
space identified by D&T pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(ii) or identified by Buyer,
the landlord for such space requires a guarantee of Buyer's obligations under
the lease for such space, the Company or such other entity acceptable to the
landlord (other than D&T or any of its affiliates) shall be the guarantor for
such lease.

              (d)   As used herein, a "Fully Separate Office" means facilities
which (i) unless otherwise agreed to by the parties hereto, are physically
separate from space occupied by D&T, such that they have separate entrances and
exits and there is no common or connected back-office space and no shared
reception area or the like and (ii) unless otherwise agreed to by the parties
hereto, contain a local area/wide area network, e-mail system and telephone
switch (including voice mail), in each case, separate from such systems used by
D&T.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

          (e) Buyer's right to use the Buyer Offices during each applicable
Transition Period shall include the right to use (i) conference rooms, mail
rooms, duplicating and facsimile machines, libraries, telephone reception (at
such times as D&T provides such reception to its own operations and provided
calls are transferred on a "dedicated line" identifying them to the receptionist
as Buyer or Company calls) and common areas such as kitchens and restrooms and
(ii) D&T's local area/wide area networks, e-mail system, and telephone switches
(including voicemail), in each case, in the ordinary course and subject to such
restrictions as D&T may reasonably establish to comply with its obligations
pursuant to professional rules and regulations, its obligations of
confidentiality and its obligations to protect D&T Protected Information (as
defined in Section 5.1) (collectively, "Professional Obligations") and the
orderly operation of its business (collectively, the "Ancillary Services").
Buyer shall not use, and shall take commercially reasonable efforts to prohibit
any employee, agent or representative of Buyer or other person from using, any
of the Ancillary Services for any purpose other than the operation of the
Business.  If any such employee, agent or representative willfully uses any of
the Ancillary Services for the purpose of obtaining access to any D&T Protected
Information, then, promptly after Buyer receives notice thereof, Buyer shall
prohibit such employee, agent or representative from having any further access
to any of the Buyer Offices.

          (f) The applicable license fee for each Buyer Office (which shall
constitute consideration for use of the Buyer Offices and the availability and
use of the Ancillary Services) for Fiscal Year 1999 is set forth on Annex B
(which costs shall be pro rated based on the period beginning on the Closing
Date and ending on the last day of Fiscal Year 1999) and shall be no less than
the fair market value of the use of the Buyer Offices and Ancillary Services
provided to Buyer.  Annex B shall be supplemented no later than the end of
Fiscal Year 1999 with the applicable license fee for each Buyer Office for
Fiscal Year 2000.  The applicable license fee for Fiscal Year 2000 shall be
allocated as part of the normal D&T annual budgeting process on an office-by-
office basis consistent with past D&T practice.  For any Buyer Office that has
not been relocated before the end of Fiscal Year 2000, the applicable license
fee for Fiscal Year 2001 shall be allocated as part of the normal D&T annual
budgeting process on an office-by-office basis and consistent with past D&T
practice and Annex B shall be supplemented accordingly.  All such license fees
shall be paid in accordance with the terms set forth in Annex C.  As used
herein, "Fiscal Year 1999" means the period beginning on May 31, 1998 and ending
on May 29, 1999, "Fiscal Year 2000" means the period beginning on May 30, 1999
and ending on June 3, 2000 and "Fiscal Year 2001" means the period beginning on
June 4, 2000 and ending on June 2, 2001.

          (g) At the request of D&T, Buyer shall modify existing or install new
signage at locations identified by D&T identifying Buyer Offices as Buyer or
Company facilities.  The placement, size, design and general appearance of any
such signage shall be subject to D&T's approval.  No such signage shall be
installed without the approval of Susan I. Zaffiro, Director, National
Facilities-Deloitte & Touche USA LLP, 10 Westport Road, Wilton, Connecticut
06897; telephone: (203) 761-3000, or such other D&T designee notified to Buyer
from time to time.

                                      -5-

          (h) Buyer may vacate any Buyer Office and terminate its future
obligations with respect thereto, on no less than 120 days' prior notice, as to
Buyer Offices which occupy less than 1,000 square feet (excluding any space
which is the subject of Ancillary Services), and 180 days' prior notice, as to
any other Buyer Office, except for space that is subleased by Buyer from D&T
pursuant to a sublease, in which case the relevant sublease shall control.

          (i) D&T shall give Buyer no less than 150 days' prior notice (or such
lesser period as D&T may reasonably require due to unforeseen circumstances) of
its determination, in its discretion, to close any Location or to relocate its
facilities at any Location.  Any rights of Buyer to operate a Buyer Office at
such Location shall terminate upon such closure or relocation.  Commencing on
D&T's notice under this Section 2.2(i), D&T shall, with respect to the Location
to be closed or relocated, use the same commercially reasonable efforts
described in Section 2.2(a)(ii) (without giving effect to the time period
specified therein) to promptly identify office space for Buyer prior to such
closure or relocation.

          (j) In the event that Buyer desires to use additional space at any
Location at which Buyer maintains a Buyer Office during the Transition Period,
then Buyer will, upon its request and subject to the availability of such space
and the approval of the D&T office managing partner responsible for such office
and D&T, be entitled to obtain additional space at such Location at agreed upon
market rates.

          (k) If D&T determines in its reasonable discretion that in light of
its Professional Obligations or the orderly operation of its business that it is
desirable to move the location of any Buyer Office within a Location, then D&T
shall be permitted to move such Buyer Office upon at least 45 days' prior notice
thereof to Buyer; provided that (i) the new facilities provided by D&T to Buyer
at such Location are substantially similar to the facilities previously provided
by D&T to Buyer at such Location, (ii) D&T reimburses Buyer for any reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with any such move and
(iii) D&T shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any
disruption to the Business as a result of any such move.

          (l) In addition to the provisions hereof, Buyer's rights and
obligations with respect to each of the Locations during the applicable
Transition Period shall be the subject of the additional license terms attached
hereto as Annex C and Buyer and the Company agree to be bound by such terms
which shall be deemed to be set forth herein in full.

          2.3  Additional Services.  In the event that it is necessary for Buyer
               -------------------
to obtain additional services from D&T, the parties hereto will consult in good
faith as to the services sought and appropriate terms, including compensation to
D&T, for the provision of such services by D&T, and shall use their commercially
reasonable efforts to enable Buyer to obtain such services, subject to the
Professional Obligations and the orderly operation of D&T's business.

          2.4  Boston Buyer Office and Washington, D.C. Buyer Office.
               -----------------------------------------------------
Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the following terms shall
apply with respect to the Buyer Offices located in Boston and Washington, D.C.:

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

                    (i) If, after the exercise of commercially reasonable
               efforts, Buyer is unable to relocate the current Buyer Office
               located in Boston and/or Washington, D.C. prior to the time when
               D&T relocates from such Location (presently scheduled for July 4,
               1999 in Boston and June 25, 1999 in Washington, D.C.) D&T shall
               accommodate a Buyer Office in the new space ("New Space") leased
               by D&T in Boston and Washington D.C., respectively, on the terms
               set forth in this Section 2.4; and

                    (ii) In connection with D&T's accommodation of a Buyer
               Office in New Space as provided in this Section 2.4, (w) it is
               probable that the space associated with such Buyer Office will
               not be contiguous or efficient for the operation of the Business,
               (x) such accommodation shall be effected through a license as
               provided in this Agreement, (y) such license shall be effective
               for a period of up to 90 days after the date the Buyer Office is
               established in such New Space and (z) the applicable license fee
               for such Buyer Office shall equal the license fee payable by
               Buyer as of the date of the relocation to the New Space for the
               current Buyer Office located in Boston or Washington, D.C.,
               respectively, but shall not be less than the fair market value of
               the use of such Buyer Office and the Ancillary Services provided
               to Buyer with respect thereto.

          2.5  Certain Furniture.  With respect to all furniture not
               -----------------
constituting fixtures in the current Buyer Office located in Boston, Buyer may
purchase such furniture at a price equal to the book value thereof on D&T's
books as determined by D&T (it being agreed that if certain furniture has no
such book value, then Buyer shall be entitled to such furniture at no cost).
Buyer shall notify D&T of its election to purchase (the "Election Notice") any
such furniture within 30 days after the Closing Date, identifying such furniture
in reasonable detail.  Promptly following D&T's receipt of the Election Notice,
D&T shall specify to Buyer the applicable book value of such furniture
identified in the Election Notice.  Buyer shall pay D&T for all furniture that
it has elected to purchase pursuant to the Election Notice within 45 days after
the delivery of the Election Notice; title to such furniture shall pass to Buyer
upon such payment to D&T; and Buyer shall be responsible for all insurance with
respect to such furniture upon such passing of title.  Buyer shall pay any and
all costs and expenses associated with moving such furniture from the current
Buyer Office and any and all warehouse or storage costs associated with storing
such furniture following the movement of such furniture from the current Buyer
Office.  All such furniture to be purchased by Buyer shall be moved from the
current Buyer Office no later than the date on which the greater portion of the
unpurchased furniture in such Buyer Office is moved from such Buyer Office.
Buyer shall pay any and all sales or similar taxes that may arise as a result of
the transaction contemplated in this Section 2.5, and Buyer shall timely make
any and all filings with governmental or regulatory authorities that may be
required as a result of the transaction contemplated in this Section 2.5.

          2.6  Exchange of Certain Transition Periods.  Buyer may exchange the
               --------------------------------------
"Date On Which Transition Period Ends" associated with a particular Buyer Office
upon notice delivered not less than 180 days prior to expiration of the
Transition Period specified for such

Buyer Office, each as provided in Annex A, provided that Buyer shall have no
such right with respect to those Buyer Offices for which the specified date is
180 days after the Closing Date or for the Buyer Offices located in Boston and
Washington, D.C. Upon such notice, Annex A shall be deemed modified to reflect
such change without further action by the parties hereto. Buyer shall be
permitted to make only one such exchange with respect to each Buyer Office.

          3.  Payment.  Buyer shall pay D&T for all Services as provided herein.
              -------

                   (b) Buyer or the Company fails to comply with any of its
               agreements hereunder in any material respect and such failure is
               not curable or has not been cured within 30 days following
               written notice from D&T specifying such breach, provided that
               there shall be no opportunity to cure a failure to relocate a
               Buyer Office and vacate a Location after 540 days after the
               Closing Date, and provided, further, that there shall be no

               to promote business or refer clients or personnel) with any such
               accounting firm;

                   (d) a "Change of Control" of Buyer or the Company occurs. As

Buyer and the Company and their officers, directors, members, managers,
employees, independent contractors, agents and representatives (collectively,
the "Buyer Personnel") may have access (due to the shared office space) to
proprietary information (in any form, whether written, oral, in computer
readable form or otherwise) of D&T and its clients and others, including but not
limited to any such proprietary information relating to the business or
operations of D&T, its affiliates, its clients or other entities including but
not limited to information relating to existing or potential business
opportunities (unless provided by D&T to Buyer or the Company pursuant to
Section 8) ("D&T Protected Information"). Buyer and the Company agree that no
Buyer Personnel shall disclose any D&T Protected Information or use any D&T
Protected Information for any purpose without the express, written authorization
of D&T. D&T Protected Information shall not include information which Buyer or
the Company can establish: (i) is generally known to the public

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

through no breach of this provision by Buyer or the Company; (ii) was known to
Buyer or the Company prior to disclosure by or through D&T or its affiliates
from a source other than D&T or its affiliates which provided such information
without, to Buyer's and the Company's knowledge, breaching any obligation of
confidentiality; (iii) was independently developed by Buyer or the Company
without reference to the information; (iv) is required to be disclosed by Buyer
or the Company pursuant to applicable law or regulation provided that Buyer or
the Company, as applicable, promptly provides D&T with notice of any such
requirement and Buyer Personnel cooperate with D&T in seeking a protective order
or otherwise preventing such disclosure to the extent practicable and in good
faith pursuant to, and in compliance with, such law or regulation; or (v) is
required to be disclosed by Buyer or the Company in connection with any judicial
or administrative proceeding involving D&T, on the one hand, and Buyer and/or
the Company, on the other hand, relating to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby. Buyer and the Company shall cause all Buyer Personnel who
have access to any Buyer Office to agree for the benefit of D&T to be bound by
the provisions of this Section 5.1(a). Buyer and the Company shall take steps to
prevent their respective clients, invitees and visitors from having access to
any D&T Protected Information.,

          (b) Buyer and the Company acknowledge and agree that, by virtue of
their access to D&T's premises and the extraordinary value of the D&T Protected
Information and the access to such information by Buyer Personnel, any violation
by any Buyer Personnel of the undertakings contained in Section 5.1(a) would
cause D&T immediate, substantial and irreparable injury for which it has no
adequate remedy at law.  Accordingly, all Buyer Personnel agree and consent to
the entry of an injunction or other equitable relief by a court of competent
jurisdiction restraining any violation or threatened violation of any
undertaking contained in Section 5.1(a).  All Buyer Personnel waive posting by
D&T of any bond and any proof of actual damages necessary to secure such
injunction or other equitable relief.  Rights and remedies provided for in this
Section 5.1(b) are cumulative and shall be in addition to rights and remedies
otherwise available to D&T hereunder or under any other agreement or applicable
law or otherwise.

          (c) D&T acknowledges that in connection with the provision of Services
by D&T hereunder, D&T and its officers, directors, employees, independent
contractors, agents and representatives (collectively, the "D&T Personnel") may
have access (due to the shared office space) to proprietary information (in any
form, whether written, oral, in computer readable form or otherwise) of Buyer or
the Company and their clients and others, including but not limited to any such
proprietary information relating to the business or operations of Buyer or the
Company, their affiliates, their clients or other entities including but not
limited to information relating to existing or potential business opportunities
("Company Protected Information").  D&T agrees that no D&T Personnel shall
disclose any Company Protected Information or use any Company Protected
Information for any purpose without the express, written authorization of Buyer
or the Company.  Company Protected Information shall not include information
which D&T can establish: (i) is generally known to the public through no breach
of this provision by D&T; (ii) was known to D&T prior to disclosure by or
through Buyer, the Company or their affiliates from a source other than Buyer,
the Company or their affiliates which provided such information without, to
D&T's knowledge, breaching any

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

obligation of confidentiality; (iii) was independently developed by D&T without
reference to the information; (iv) is required to be disclosed by D&T pursuant
to applicable law, regulation or Professional Obligations provided that D&T to
the extent practicable promptly provides Buyer or the Company, as applicable,
with notice of any such requirement and D&T Personnel cooperate with Buyer or
the Company, as applicable, in seeking a protective order or otherwise
preventing such disclosure to the extent practicable and in good faith pursuant
to, and in compliance with, such law, regulation or Professional Obligations; or
(v) is required to be disclosed by D&T in connection with any judicial or
administrative proceeding involving D&T, on the one hand, and Buyer and/or the
Company, on the other hand, relating to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby. D&T shall cause all D&T Personnel who have access to any
Buyer Office to agree for the benefit of Buyer and the Company to be bound by
the provisions of this Section 5.1(c). D&T shall take steps to prevent its
clients, invitees and visitors from having access to any Company Protected
Information.

          5.2  Certain Relationships.  Buyer and the Company shall give D&T no
               ---------------------
less than 60 days' prior notice of the occurrence of an event described in
Section 4.2(c), (d), or (e).

          5.3  Insurance.  Buyer at its own cost shall purchase and maintain
               ---------
during the term of this Agreement and for two years thereafter in the event that
the insurance is on a claims made basis insurance of such types and in such
amounts as are set forth on Annex D attached hereto with an insurance company or
companies reasonably acceptable to D&T and shall name D&T as an additional
insured in connection with the activities contemplated by this Agreement.  Such
policies shall provide that no cancellation or diminution of the rights of the
insureds thereunder shall be effective unless D&T shall receive at least 30
days' prior written notice.  If any of such policies are to be cancelled, Buyer
shall purchase at its own cost replacement insurance substantially consistent
with the coverage set forth on Annex D and coverage under such replacement
insurance shall begin no later than the date of cancellation of the insurance
which is replaced.  If D&T shall receive notice of non-payment of premium,
without limiting any other remedy available to D&T hereunder, D&T may pay the
premiums and Buyer shall reimburse D&T within 10 days following notice from D&T
requesting such reimbursement.  Buyer shall provide D&T with a certificate or
certificates of insurance evidencing such insurance within 30 days of the date
of this Agreement.

          5.4  Assignment and Assumption of Equipment Leases.  The parties
               ---------------------------------------------
hereto acknowledge that certain equipment is leased by D&T pursuant to the
leases identified on Annex E attached hereto and used solely by the Company in
connection with the Business.  The parties hereto agree to use their
commercially reasonable efforts and to cooperate in good faith in order for D&T
to assign to Buyer, and for Buyer to assume, each of the leases identified on
Annex E.  In the event that in order for such assignment and assumption to
occur, the lessor of such equipment requires a guarantee of Buyer's obligations
under the lease for such equipment, the Company or such other entity acceptable
to the lessor (other than D&T or any of its affiliates) shall be the guarantor
for such lease.  In the event that any of such leases cannot be assigned by D&T
to Buyer, or for the period until such assignment occurs, Buyer agrees, in
exchange for the use of the applicable equipment, to continue to reimburse D&T
for all rent and other payments

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

required to be paid under such lease and all out-of-pocket expenses associated
therewith for the duration of such lease and D&T agrees to use its commercially
reasonable efforts to secure for the Company the use of such equipment.

          5.5  Certain Conditions to Proceeding with an Initial Public Offering.
               ----------------------------------------------------------------
Neither Buyer nor the Company shall file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission or any other governmental or regulatory body any documents, forms or
materials (including but not limited to a registration statement) to commence
the process for an initial public offering of its securities unless (i) Buyer
has relocated at least 23 of the Buyer Offices at such time, (ii) Buyer and the
Company are otherwise in compliance with their obligations and agreements under
this Agreement at such time and (iii) those provisions of any such documents,
forms or materials that refer to D&T or any of its affiliates shall have been
approved by D&T in writing, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

          5.6  Certain Agreements Regarding Strategic Alliances.  D&T agrees
               ------------------------------------------------
that upon notice from Buyer or the Company that Buyer or the Company is
contemplating entry into a transaction or arrangement which might constitute a
"strategic alliance" within the meaning of Section 4.2(c), which notice shall
include a description of the relevant facts of such transaction or arrangement
and the view of Buyer and the Company as to whether such transaction or
arrangement would constitute a "strategic alliance" pursuant to such section,
D&T will give Buyer or the Company prompt notice of its view as to whether such
a transaction or arrangement, if consummated, would constitute a "strategic
alliance" pursuant to such section.

     6.  Liability.  (a) NEITHER D&T NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE
         ---------
LIABLE FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF OR FAILURE TO PERFORM ANY SERVICES HEREUNDER
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OF THEIR FINALLY JUDICIALLY DETERMINED BAD FAITH OR
INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT.  THE LIABILITY OF D&T AND ITS AFFILIATES FOR ANY REASON
WHATSOEVER ARISING UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM
OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STATUTE OR TORT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, SHALL NOT EXCEED IN THE AGGREGATE WITH ANY
OTHER AMOUNTS PAID IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH LIABILITY BY D&T THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY
RECEIVED BY D&T FOR THE SERVICES PROVIDED BY D&T AND ITS AFFILIATES HEREUNDER TO
WHICH SUCH LIABILITY RELATES.

                     (b) NEITHER D&T, BUYER, THE COMPANY NOR ANY OF THEIR
RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY AMOUNTS REPRESENTING OPPORTUNITY
COSTS, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR SALES OR SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, EVEN IF SUCH PERSON HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

     7.  Indemnity.  Buyer and the Company jointly and severally shall
         ---------
indemnify D&T and its partners, principals, officers, directors, employees,
independent contractors, agents

                                      -12-

and representatives, in their capacities as such, and the successors, heirs and
personal representatives of any of them (collectively, "D&T Indemnified
Parties") against and hold them harmless from any and all damages, claims,
losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
expenses of investigation and attorneys' fees and expenses) (collectively,
"Losses") incurred or suffered by any D&T Indemnified Party resulting from any
liability or damages to, or claims of, a third party arising out of or relating
to the Services (including, without limitation, all Losses (whether third party
or not) resulting from any delay by Buyer in vacating a Location on or before
the end of the applicable Transition Period as the date for vacating such
Location may be extended pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(iii)), except to the extent
of any Losses arising out of (i) the finally judicially determined bad faith or
intentional misconduct of D&T, (ii) a violation by D&T of its obligations
pursuant to professional rules and regulations resulting from facts which are
known to D&T at a time when D&T could reasonably take action to avoid such
Losses and (iii) a breach of any D&T lease with respect to a Location solely as
a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          8.  New Business Prospects.  From time to time, personnel of D&T may,
              ----------------------
in their discretion, bring to the attention of Buyer or Company personnel,
information known to them with respect to business development opportunities for
the business of Buyer or the Company.  Neither Buyer, the Company, nor D&T shall
be under any obligation to provide any business development opportunity to the
others.

mailed by registered or certified mail, (ii) upon receipt if given by hand or
(iii) one business day after being sent by prepaid overnight courier.

          10.  Miscellaneous.
               -------------

               10.1  Each party shall be entitled to rely, in the performance of
its obligations hereunder, on any instructions or notices provided by any
representative of any other party that such person reasonably believes is
authorized to give such instructions or notices.

               10.2  (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, D&T may terminate provision of any Services in the event of an
Authoritative Directive as follows:

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

          (i) the provision of the Services covered by the Authoritative
          Directive shall cease (and Buyer and the Company shall vacate any
          Location covered by such Authoritative Directive and D&T shall have no
          further obligation to provide any Services with respect to such
          Location) upon the earlier of 180 days after notice of the
          Authoritative Directive to Buyer by D&T and the earliest date on which
          the authoritative source from which such Authoritative Directive comes
          requires such Authoritative Directive be effective.

          (ii) If the Authoritative Directive requires that Buyer and the
          Company vacate any Location prior to 12 months after the Closing Date,
          D&T shall pay Buyer, upon Buyer vacating all such Locations timely in
          accordance with Section 10.2(a)(i), the Applicable Portion of the
          Maximum Fee.  If Buyer does not vacate any such Location or Locations
          timely in accordance with Section 10.2(a)(i), (x) the Applicable
          Portion shall be adjusted so that all such Locations are excluded from
          the numerator thereof but included in the denominator thereof and (y)
          D&T thereafter shall not have any obligation to continue to provide
          any Services with respect to such Locations.

          (iii)  As used herein, the "Applicable Portion" shall mean a ratio (x)
          the numerator of which is the number of Locations which Buyer and the
          Company are required to and do actually vacate timely in accordance
          with Section 10.2(a)(i) pursuant to an Authoritative Directive and (y)
          the denominator of which is the total number of Locations for which
          the Transition Period set forth in Annex A has not ended (regardless
          of whether Buyer and the Company have vacated such Locations) at the
          date Buyer and the Company are required to vacate Locations by the
          Authoritative Directive (including any Locations included in (x)
          above).

          (iv) As used herein, the "Maximum Fee" shall mean the applicable
          amount set forth in Annex F.  The Maximum Fee shall vary, as set forth
          in Annex F, based on the date on which Buyer and the Company are
          required to vacate a Location by an Authoritative Directive and based
          on the number of days of notice given by D&T to Buyer prior to the
          date upon which Buyer and the Company are required to vacate such
          Location by the Authoritative Directive.

          (v) As used herein, an "Authoritative Directive" means the expression
          of the view, by an authoritative source, including, without
          limitation, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a
          state board of accountancy, a state CPA society, a state body with
          authority for ethics compliance by accountants or the AICPA (through
          its Professional Ethics Division or otherwise), that the delivery of
          certain Services by D&T hereunder either:

               (x) violates D&T's Professional Obligations, or

               (y) would violate D&T's Professional Obligations unless Buyer or
               the Company took actions which they reasonably determine they are
               unwilling

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

               to take or as to which D&T reasonably determines it is unable to
               obtain sufficient assurance of compliance from Buyer and the
               Company,

          regardless of whether the views of such authoritative source are
          expressed in response to an inquiry from D&T or another party, at the
          instance of the authoritative source or otherwise.

          (b) D&T, Buyer and the Company will each use their commercially
reasonable efforts in the operation of their businesses and the delivery and
receipt of Services hereunder to minimize the impact of any Authoritative
Directive on their respective businesses and to comply with applicable
Professional Obligations of D&T, as reasonably interpreted by D&T and provided
to Buyer and the Company.

          (c) D&T represents and warrants to Buyer and the Company that, to its
knowledge, as of the date hereof, D&T's execution and delivery of this Agreement
and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement do not violate D&T's
obligations pursuant to its Professional Obligations.

          (d) D&T's liability upon a termination of Services pursuant to this
Section 10.2 shall be limited to payment of the fee prescribed by Section
10.2(a)(ii) above, to the extent owed, regardless of any other costs or losses
incurred by Buyer or the Company (including but not limited to relocation
expenses and the cost of business interruption) as a result of such termination.

          (e) D&T shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly
inform Buyer and the Company if D&T has actual knowledge that an Authoritative
Directive is reasonably likely to be forthcoming.

              10.3  Subject to Section 2.5, Buyer and the Company jointly and
severally shall pay any and all taxes, however designated or levied, based upon
the Services provided hereunder, including but not limited to, foreign, federal,
state and local sales, privilege, use, value added, excise and premium taxes;
provided, however, that Buyer and the Company shall not be responsible or liable
for any taxes measured by or based upon the income of D&T or any person
providing Services hereunder.

              10.4  The status of D&T and any provider of Services hereunder
shall be that of independent contractors and nothing set forth herein shall be
deemed to constitute any partnership, joint venture, association or agency
between such persons, on the one hand, and Buyer and the Company, on the other
hand. The parties hereto shall not represent to any person that any such
partnership, joint venture, association or agency exists in respect of this
Agreement, or that D&T or any provider of Services hereunder is acting on behalf
of Buyer or the Company pursuant to this Agreement in any capacity other than
that of independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement confers authority upon
any party hereto to enter into any commitment or agreement binding on any other
party. To the extent that D&T or any other provider of Services hereunder
utilizes any of its property in providing Services hereunder, such

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

property shall remain the property of such person, and neither Buyer nor the
Company shall acquire any right or interest in such property, unless otherwise
expressly provided herein.

          10.5  This Agreement contains the complete understanding of the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no
understandings, representations, or warranties of any kind, express or implied
not specifically set forth herein.  Each Annex to this Agreement is hereby
incorporated by reference into this Agreement and forms a part hereof.  This
Agreement may be amended only by written documents signed by each of the parties
hereto.  No waiver shall be deemed effective under this Agreement unless in a
writing signed by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective and the
waiver of breach of any provision shall not waive breach of any other provision
or any subsequent breach of the provision waived.  No failure or delay by any
party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder, and no
course of dealing between such parties, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  Rights
and remedies provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and shall be in
addition to rights and remedies otherwise available to a party, whether by
contract, at law, in equity or otherwise.

          10.6  This Agreement shall be governed, including, without limitation,
as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the internal laws of the State of
New York without reference to conflict of laws principles.  Each of the parties
hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York State court
sitting in the County of New York and any Federal court sitting in the Southern
District of the State of New York in respect of any suit or proceeding related
to or arising out of this Agreement.  Each party hereto also hereby irrevocably
waives any objection to the laying of the venue of any such suit or proceeding
in any such court and further waives any claim that any such suit or proceeding
brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.  In
addition to any other form of service of process authorized by law, service of
process in any suit or proceeding hereunder shall be sufficient if mailed to
each party hereto at the address specified in Section 9, and such service shall
constitute "personal service" for purposes of such suit or proceeding.

          10.7  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which taken together shall
constitute a single agreement.

          10.8  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of D&T, Buyer, the
Company and the persons named in Section 7 and shall be binding upon the parties
hereto, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  Nothing in this
Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer or shall confer on any
person other than the persons identified in the preceding sentence any rights,
remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

          10.9  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or
obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the
prior written consent of the other parties hereto, except that (i) D&T may
delegate performance of its

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

obligations hereunder to such persons as it may determine from time to time
without the consent of Buyer or the Company and (ii) Buyer and the Company may,
without the consent of D&T, assign (A) in whole, but not in part, all of their
rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to any lender providing
financing for the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement in the
event of a foreclosure by any such lender or a sale of collateral after
foreclosure by any such lender and (B) in whole, or in part, any rights to
receive money due, or money to become due, under this Agreement. No party shall
be relieved of any liability or obligation arising hereunder in respect of any
assignment or, as to D&T, delegation, pursuant to this Section 10.9, except to
the extent expressly agreed to in writing by the other party.

          10.10  Every provision of this Agreement is intended to be severable.
If any term or provision hereof is illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever,
such term or provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law
and, in any event, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the validity
of the remainder of this Agreement.

          10.11  The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience
only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

          11.    Company Guaranty.  The Company hereby irrevocably and
                 ----------------
unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligation, the prompt and complete
performance by Buyer of all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in
this Agreement with respect to Buyer and the payment of all amounts which, by
virtue of this Agreement, are or may become due to or recoverable by D&T or any
other person from Buyer.  In case of the failure of Buyer punctually to perform
any such term, covenant or condition or to make any such payment, the Company
hereby agrees to perform such term, covenant or condition or to make such
payment, as the case may be, promptly upon demand made by D&T to the Company;
provided, however, that delay by D&T in giving such demand shall in no event
affect the Company's obligations under this Section 11.  The Company's guarantee
shall remain in full force and effect or shall be reinstated, as the case may
be, if at any time any payment guaranteed by the Company under this Section 11,
in whole or in part, is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by D&T upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Buyer, the Company or otherwise, all
as though such payment had not been made.  The Company hereby agrees that its
obligations under this Section 11 shall be unconditional, irrespective of the
validity or enforceability of this Agreement; the absence of any action to
enforce the same; any waiver or consent by D&T concerning any provision of this
Agreement; the rendering of any judgment against Buyer or any action to enforce
the same; or any other circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of a guarantor or a defense of a guarantor.  The Company
covenants that its obligations under this Section 11 will not be discharged
except by complete performance of all of the terms, covenants and conditions
contained in this Agreement applicable to Buyer and payment of all amounts
payable under this Agreement by Buyer.  The Company's obligations under this
Section 11 shall continue to be effective if Buyer merges or consolidates with
or into another entity, loses its separate legal identity or ceases to exist.
The Company hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest, notice of acceptance,
protest, acceleration and dishonor, filing of claims with a court in the event
of insolvency or bankruptcy of Buyer, all demands whatsoever, except as noted in
the first paragraph of this Section 11 and any right to require a proceeding
first against Buyer.
