                                MASCO CORPORATION
                     1997 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS STOCK PLAN
                           (AS AMENDED JULY 10, 1998)

SECTION 1.  PURPOSE

         The purpose of this Plan is to ensure that the non-employee Directors
of Masco Corporation (the "Company") have an equity interest in the Company and
thereby have a direct and long term interest in the growth and prosperity of the
Company by payment of part of their compensation in the form of common stock of
the Company.

SECTION 2.  ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

         This Plan will be administered by the Company's Board of Directors (the
"Board"). The Board shall be authorized to interpret the Plan, to establish,
amend, and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan and to make
all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the
Plan. The Board's interpretation of the terms and provisions of this Plan shall
be final and conclusive. The Secretary of the Company shall be authorized to
implement the Plan in accordance with its terms and to take such actions of a
ministerial nature as shall be necessary to effectuate the intent and purposes
thereof. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and any rules and
regulations relating to the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws
of the State of Michigan and applicable Federal law.

SECTION 3.  ELIGIBILITY

         Participation will be limited to individuals who are Eligible
Directors, as hereinafter defined. Eligible Director shall mean any Director of
the Company who is not an employee of the Company and who receives a fee for
services as a Director.

SECTION 4.  SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

         (a) Subject to the adjustments set forth below, the aggregate number of
shares of Company Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Shares"), which may
be the subject of awards issued under the Plan shall be 1,000,000.

         (b) Any Shares to be delivered under the Plan shall be made available
from newly issued Shares or from Shares reacquired by the Company, including
Shares purchased in the open market.

         (c) To the extent a Stock Option award, as hereinafter defined,
terminates without having been exercised, or an award of Restricted Stock, as
hereinafter defined, is forfeited, the Shares subject to such Stock Option or
Restricted Stock award shall again be available for distribution in connection
with future awards under the Plan. Shares equal in number to the Shares
surrendered to the Company in payment of the option price or withholding taxes
(if any) relating to or arising in connection with any Restricted Stock or Stock
Option hereunder shall be added to the number of Shares then available for
future awards under clause (a) above.

         (d) In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation,
recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, or other change in corporate
structure affecting the Shares, the aggregate number of Shares which may be
issued under the Plan, the number of Shares subject to Stock Options to be
granted under Section 6(a) hereof and the number of Shares subject to any
outstanding award of Restricted Stock or unexercised Stock Option shall be
adjusted to avoid enhancement or diminution of the benefits intended to be made
available hereunder.

SECTION 5.  DIRECTOR STOCK COMPENSATION

         (a) The compensation of each Eligible Director for the five year period
beginning January 1, 1997 shall be payable in part with an award of Restricted
Stock determined as set forth below, and in part in cash. Compensation for this
purpose means annual retainer fees but does not include supplemental retainer
fees for committee positions or fees

                                       1

<PAGE>   2

for attendance at meetings, which shall be paid in cash. The portion of
compensation payable in Restricted Stock during the five year period shall be
equal to one-half of the annual compensation paid to Eligible Directors in the
year immediately prior to the award multiplied by five, and the balance of
compensation, unless otherwise determined by the Board, shall be payable in
cash. Each award of Restricted Stock shall vest in twenty percent annual
installments (disregarding fractional shares) on January 1 of each of the five
consecutive years following the year in which the award is made. Subject to the
approval of this Plan by the Company's stockholders, each Eligible Director on
February 18, 1997 is awarded as of that date 3,470 Shares of Restricted Stock,
based on the closing price of the Shares as reported on the New York Stock
Exchange Composite Tape (the "NYSE") on February 18, 1997. Cash shall be paid to
an Eligible Director in lieu of a fractional share.

         (b) Subject to the approval of this Plan by the Company's stockholders,
each Eligible Director who is first elected or appointed to the Board on or
after the date of the Company's 1997 annual meeting of stockholders shall
receive, as of the date of such election or appointment, an award of Restricted
Stock determined in accordance with Section 5(a) for the five year period
beginning on January 1 of the year in which such election or appointment
occurred; provided, however, that the price of the Shares used in determining
the number of Shares of Restricted Stock which shall be issued to such Eligible
Director shall be the closing price of the Shares as reported on the NYSE on the
date on which such Eligible Director is elected or appointed, and provided,
further, that the amount of Restricted Stock awarded to any Eligible Director
who begins serving as a Director other than at the beginning of a calendar year
shall be prorated to reflect the partial service of the initial year of the
Director's term, such proration to be effected in the initial vesting.

         (c) Upon the full vesting of any award of Restricted Stock awarded
pursuant to Section 5(a) or 5(b), each affected Eligible Director shall be
eligible to receive a new award of Restricted Stock, subject to Section 4. The
number of Shares subject to such award shall be determined generally in
accordance with the provisions of Section 5(b); provided, however, that the
Board shall have sole discretion to adjust the amount of compensation then to be
paid in the form of Shares and the terms of any such award of Shares. Except as
the Board may otherwise determine, any increase or decrease in an Eligible
Director's annual compensation during the period when such Director has an
outstanding award of Restricted Stock shall be implemented by increasing or
decreasing the cash portion of such Director's compensation.

         (d) Each Eligible Director shall be entitled to vote and receive
dividends on the unvested portion of his or her Restricted Stock, but will not
be able to obtain a stock certificate or sell, encumber or otherwise transfer
such Restricted Stock except in accordance with the terms of the Company's 1991
Long Term Stock Incentive Plan (the "Long Term Plan"). If an Eligible Director's
term is terminated by reason of death or permanent and total disability, the
restrictions on the Restricted Stock will lapse and such Eligible Director's
rights to the Shares will become vested on the date of such termination. If an
Eligible Director's term is terminated for any reason other than death or
permanent and total disability, the Restricted Stock that has not vested shall
be forfeited and transferred back to the Company; provided, however, that a pro
rata portion of the Restricted Stock which would have vested on January 1 of the
year following the year of the Eligible Director's termination shall vest on the
date of termination, based upon the portion of the year during which the
Eligible Director served as a Director of the Company.

SECTION 6.  STOCK OPTION GRANT

         (a) Subject to approval of this Plan by the Company's stockholders,
each Eligible Director on the date of such approval will be granted on such date
a stock option to purchase 8,000 Shares (the "Stock Option"). Thereafter, on the
date of each of the Company's subsequent annual stockholders meetings, each
person who is or becomes an Eligible Director on that date and whose service on
the Board will continue after such date shall be granted a Stock Option, subject
to Section 4, effective as of the date of such meeting.

         (b) Stock Options granted under this Section 6 shall be non-qualified
stock options and shall have the following terms and conditions.

         1.  Option Price. The option price per Share shall be equal to the
closing price of the Shares as reflected on the NYSE on the date of grant (or if
there were no sales on such date, the most recent prior date on which there were
sales).

         2.  Term of Option. The term of the Stock Option shall be ten years
from the date of grant, subject to earlier termination in the event of
termination of service as an Eligible Director. If an Eligible Director's term
is terminated for any reason other than death at a time when such Director is
entitled to exercise an outstanding Stock Option, then

                                       2

<PAGE>   3

at any time or times within three months after termination such Stock Option may
be exercised as to all or any of the Shares which the Eligible Director was
entitled to purchase at the date of termination. If an Eligible Director dies at
a time when such Director is entitled to exercise a Stock Option, then at any
time or times within one year after death such Stock Option may be exercised as
to all or any of the Shares which the Eligible Director was entitled to purchase
immediately prior to such Director's death. Except as so exercised, such Stock
Options shall expire at the end of such periods. That portion of the Stock
Option not exercisable at the time of such termination shall be forfeited and
transferred back to the Company on the date of such termination.

         3. Exercisability. Subject to clause 2 above, each Stock Option shall
vest and become exercisable with respect to twenty percent of the underlying
Shares on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of grant, provided
that the optionee is an Eligible Director on such date.

         4. Method of Exercise. A Stock Option may be exercised in whole or in
part during the period in which such Stock Option is exercisable by giving
written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares to be
purchased, accompanied by payment of the purchase price. Payment of the purchase
price shall be made in cash, by delivery of Shares, or by any combination of the
foregoing.

         5. Non-Transferability. Unless otherwise provided by the terms of the
Long Term Plan or the Board, (i) Stock Options shall not be transferable by the
optionee other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and (ii)
during the optionee's lifetime, all Stock Options shall be exercisable only by
the optionee or by his or her guardian or legal representative.

         6. Stockholder Rights. The holder of a Stock Option shall, as such,
have none of the rights of a stockholder.

SECTION 7.  GENERAL

         (a) Plan Amendments. The Board may amend, suspend or discontinue the
Plan as it shall deem advisable or to conform to any change in any law or
regulation applicable thereto; provided, that the Board may not, without the
authorization and approval of the stockholders of the Company: (a) modify the
class of persons who constitute Eligible Directors as defined in the Plan; or
(b) increase the total number of Shares available under the Plan. In addition,
without the consent of affected participants, no amendment of the Plan or any
award under the Plan may impair the rights of participants under outstanding
awards.

         (b) Listing and Registration. If at any time the Board shall determine,
in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares
under the Plan upon any securities exchange or under any state or Federal law,
or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or
desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of any award
hereunder, no Shares may be delivered or disposed of unless such listing,
registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or
obtained free of any condition not acceptable to the Board.

         (c) Award Agreements. Each award of Restricted Stock and Stock Option
granted hereunder shall be evidenced by the Eligible Director's written
agreement with the Company which shall contain such terms and conditions not
inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan as shall be determined by the Board
in its discretion.

                            STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
                            ------------------------

         THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into as of
October 7, 1998, by and among SMARTFLEX SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware corporation
("Buyer"), LOGICAL SERVICES INCORPORATED, a California corporation (the
"Company"), and the shareholders of the Company listed on Schedule I attached
hereto (such Shareholders are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the
"Shareholders" and individually as a "Shareholder").

                                R E C I T A L S:
                                - - - - - - - -
         A.   The Company is engaged in the business of, among others, providing
engineering driven, turn-key services (the "Business").

         B.   The Shareholders own, beneficially and of record, one hundred
percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company
(collectively the "Shares") consisting of an aggregate of 1,479,250 shares of
the Company's Common Stock, $.10 par value (the "Common Stock").

         C.   Buyer desires to acquire from the Shareholders, and the
Shareholders desire to sell to Buyer, the Shares upon the terms and subject to
the conditions hereinafter set forth.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms, covenants, and
conditions hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1 .  Purchase and Sale of Shares.

              Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, at the Closing (as defined in Section 11 hereof) on the Closing Date
(as defined in Section 11 hereof), the Shareholders agree to sell, convey,
assign, transfer, set over and deliver to Buyer, the number of the Shares set
forth opposite the name of each Shareholder on Schedule 1 attached hereto, in
each case free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances, rights of first
refusal, security interests, pledges, equities, options, charges, conditional
sale contracts, restrictions and other adverse interests and defects in title of
any nature whatsoever (collectively, the "Liens"), and Buyer agrees to purchase
and accept such Shares from the Shareholders.

         2.   Purchase Price and Terms of Payment.

              2.1  Purchase Price. As consideration for the sale hereunder to
Buyer of the Shares, Buyer shall pay to each Shareholder, in the manner set
forth in Section 2.2 and Section 3 below, his proportionate share, based on the
number of Shares owned of record by such Shareholder at the time of Closing
(such Shareholder's "Prorata Share"), of an aggregate purchase price (the
"Purchase Price") of Two Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,300,000),
which (i) shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.3 below and
(ii) shall consist of Two Million Seventy Thousand Dollars ($2,070,000) to be
Paid at the Closing (the "Closing Date Payment") and Two Hundred Thirty Thousand
Dollars ($230,000) to be withheld by the Buyer in accordance with Section 3
(the "Holdback Amount").

              2.2  Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be paid
to the Shareholders as follows:

<PAGE>   3
          (a) the Closing Date Payment shall be paid to the Shareholders at the
Closing by delivery of a bank cashier's check or wire transfer of funds to each
Shareholder in the amount of such Shareholder's Prorata Share of the Purchase
Price as set forth on Schedule 1; and

          (b) the Holdback Amount shall be paid to, or for the account of, the
Shareholders as provided in Section 3 below.

     2.3  Adjustment to Purchase Price. On the date hereof, the Company shall
deliver to the Buyer a balance sheet as of August 31, 1998, which has been
prepared by the Company and attached hereto as Schedule 2.3 (the "Balance
Sheet"). Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Ernst & Young LLP
("E&Y") shall deliver to the Buyer and to the Shareholder Representative (as
defined in Section 4 below) an audited balance sheet as of the Closing Date (the
"Closing Balance Sheet") showing the Company's Net Asset Value (as defined
herein) as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date (the
"Closing Balance Sheet Net Asset Value"). The Closing Balance Sheet shall be
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")
consistently applied using the same methodology as was used in the preparation
of the Financial Statements (as defined in Section 6.5 hereof) and the Balance
Sheet. In the event that the Closing Balance Sheet Net Asset Value is less than
the Net Asset Value as shown on the Balance Sheet (the "Target Net Asset
Value"), the Purchase Price shall be reduced by one dollar for each dollar that
the Closing Balance Sheet Net Asset Value is less than the Target Net Asset
Value. In the event that the amount of the Closing Balance Sheet Net Asset Value
is more than the Target Net Asset Value, the Purchase Price shall be increased
by one dollar for each dollar that the Closing Balance Sheet Net Asset Value is
more than the Target Net Asset Value (collectively, the "Purchase Price
Adjustment"). The Shareholder Representative and the Buyer shall be entitled to
review the Closing Balance Sheet for a period of thirty (30) days after delivery
by E&Y. In the event that before the end of such thirty (30) day period, either
of such persons notifies the other in writing that they dispute the Closing
Balance Sheet Net Asset Value shown on the Closing Balance Sheet, then the
Closing Balance Sheet Shareholders' Equity shall be determined by
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or other Big 5 accounting firm mutually agreed to by
Buyer and the Shareholder Representative ("Second Auditor"), which determination
shall be made within thirty (30) days of the date such firm is retained and when
delivered shall be final and binding on the parties. If the Closing Balance
Sheet Net Asset Value as determined by the Second Auditor varies in favor of the
requesting party, the cost of the Second Auditor shall be paid by the
non-requesting party. If the Closing Balance Sheet Net Asset Value as determined
by the Second Auditor does not vary in favor of the requesting party, the cost
of the Second Auditor shall be paid by the requesting party. If neither the
Shareholder Representative nor the Buyer notifies the other that it is
contesting the Closing Balance Sheet within the above specified time period, the
Closing Balance Sheet provided by E&Y shall be final and binding on all parties
for purposes of making the above specified Purchase Price Adjustment. When the
Purchase Price Adjustment has been finally determined, if a Purchase Price
reduction results, the Buyer shall reduce the Holdback Amount by the amount of
the Purchase Price Adjustment; provided, that, if the Purchase Price Adjustment
is greater than the Holdback Amount, then each of the Shareholders shall refund
such Shareholder's Prorata Share of the amount by which the Purchase Price
Adjustment exceeds the Holdback Amount in cash (or by immediately available
funds transfer) to the Buyer within five (5) days of the date that the Purchase
Price Adjustment is finally determined. If the Purchase Price Adjustment results
in a Purchase Price increase, the amount of such increase shall be added to the
Holdback Amount and shall be paid as provided in Section 3 below. For purposes
hereof, "Net Asset Value" shall mean the tangible assets of the Business less
the liabilities of the Business.

     3.   Purchase Price Holdback.

                                       -3-

<PAGE>   4
          (a) The Buyer shall withhold the Holdback Amount as collateral to
secure the Shareholders' obligations described in Section 3(b) below, during the
period commencing on the Closing Date and terminating on the date that is one
(1) year from the Closing Date. On the date that is one (1) year from the
Closing Date (or if such date is not a business day, on the next business day
thereafter), the Holdback Amount, less the amount of any reductions thereto, as
provided in Section 3(b) below, if a positive amount, shall be distributed to
the Shareholders, without interest, in accordance with such Shareholder's
Prorata Share. The Buyer shall not be required to segregate or set aside the
Holdback Amount. The Buyer may, without obligation, file a UCC-1 or other
appropriate instruments with the California Secretary of State evidencing
Buyer's security interest in the Holdback Amount, and the Shareholder
Representative is authorized to execute and deliver such UCC-1 or other
appropriate instruments, and each Shareholder shall be fully bound thereby.

          (b) The Holdback Amount is subject to reduction and retention by Buyer
as follows:

               (i) In the event that there is a Purchase Price reduction
pursuant to the terms of Section 2.3 above; and

               (ii) In satisfaction of any claim for Damages by the Buyer
against the Shareholders pursuant to the provisions of Section 14, below.

          (c) Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that reductions to
the Holdback Amount made by the Buyer pursuant to this Section 3 exceed the
amount of the Holdback Amount, then, in addition to any other remedies available
to the Buyer, the Buyer shall be able to recover any excess amounts directly
from the Shareholders, on a joint and several basis.

          (d) Under no circumstances will the Shareholders, without the prior
written consent of the Buyer, assign, transfer or grant any security interest in
the Holdback Amount to any party other than (i) the Buyer pursuant to Section
3(a) above, or (ii) an existing Shareholder who shall accept such assignment,
transfer or security interest subject to the prior rights of the Buyer
hereunder.

     4.   Shareholder Representative. Each of the Shareholders (and their
successors and assigns) hereby irrevocably consents to the appointment of, and
does hereby appoint and empower, Robert W. Ulrickson (and Robert W. Ulrickson
does hereby accept such appointment), as the sole and exclusive representative
of the Shareholders (the "Shareholder Representative"), until replaced by the
Shareholders, as evidenced in a writing delivered to the Buyer which is executed
by the Shareholders holding a majority of the Shares immediately prior to the
Closing Date. All decisions of the Shareholder Representative shall be final and
binding on all of the Shareholders, and the Buyer shall be entitled to rely
upon, without independent investigation, any decision of the Shareholder
Representative and shall be jointly and severally indemnified by the
Shareholders and held harmless by each Shareholder for any action or inaction
taken or omitted to be taken by Buyer in reliance thereon.

     5.   Several Representations and Warranties of the Shareholders.

          Except as disclosed in the disclosure schedules delivered to Buyer
concurrently herewith (the "Disclosure Schedules") by reference to the specific
section or subsections to which a disclosure pertains, each Shareholder,
severally but not jointly, represents and warrants to Buyer as follows:

          5.1 Authority. Such Shareholder has the full legal right, capacity,
power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform such Shareholder's
obligations under this Agreement. This

                                       -4-
<PAGE>   5

Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Shareholder, constitutes
the valid and binding obligation of such Shareholder, and is enforceable
against such Shareholder in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other
similar laws affecting creditors' rights and (ii) general principles of equity
relating to the availability of equitable remedies (regardless of whether such
Agreement is sought to be enforced in a proceeding at law or in equity). Any
Employment Agreement required to be executed by such Shareholder pursuant to
Section 9.11 below, when executed and delivered by such Shareholder, will be the
valid and binding obligation of such Shareholder, and will be enforceable
against such Shareholder in accordance with its terms except, in each case, as
such enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or
other similar laws affecting creditors' rights and (ii) general principles of
equity relating to the availability of equitable remedies (regardless of whether
any such agreements are sought to be enforced in a proceeding at law or in
equity).

          5.2  Title to Shares. Such Shareholder is the owner, beneficially and
of record, of the number of Shares set forth opposite such Shareholder's name on
Schedule 1 attached hereto and at the Closing shall transfer, convey and vest
in Buyer, legal and beneficial ownership of (including, but not limited to, the
right to vote), and good, valid and marketable title to, such Shares free and
clear of all Liens other than restrictions imposed by federal and applicable
state securities laws which do not constitute an impediment to the sale and
transfer of the Shares contemplated by this Agreement. Neither such Shareholder
nor any Shares owned by such Shareholder are or will be a party or subject to
any agreement or commitment, written or oral, granting any rights or options in
or to such Shares or any interest therein or imposing any restrictions thereon.

          5.3  No Shareholder Conflicts. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.3
attached hereto, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such
Shareholder, the performance by such Shareholder of such Shareholder's
obligations hereunder, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby, including, but not limited to, the execution by such Shareholder of an
Employment Agreement pursuant to Section 9.11 hereto, will result in any of the
following: (a) a default or an event that, with notice or lapse of time, or
both, would constitute a default, breach or violation of (i) any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of any lease, license, franchise, promissory note,
contract, agreement, commitment, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other
instrument, document or arrangement to which such Shareholder is a party or by
which his properties or assets may be bound and which is material to the
Shareholder (a "Material Shareholder Contract"); (b) the creation or imposition
of any Lien on any of the assets or properties of such Shareholder; (c) the
termination of any Material Shareholder Contract or the acceleration of the
maturity of any indebtedness or other material obligation of such Shareholder;
or (d) a violation or breach of any order, writ, injunction, decree, law,
statute or regulation of any court or governmental authority applicable to such
Shareholder or any of such Shareholder's properties or assets.

          5.4  No Third Party Consents. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.4
attached hereto, no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, declaration or filing with, any person or entity or any court,
administrative agency or commission or other governmental authority or
instrumentality is required by or with respect to such Shareholder in connection
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.

          5.5  Absence of Claims. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.5 attached
hereto, such Shareholder does not, and at the Closing will not, have any claim,
demand or cause of action against the Company, or its officers, directors,
employees, agents or representatives and knows of no fact, event or circumstance
which could reasonably be expected to result in any such claim.

          5.6  Delegation of Authority to Shareholder Representative. The
delegation of authority by each of the Shareholders to the Shareholder
Representative pursuant to this Agreement, is a valid and enforceable delegation
and each Shareholder has the full power and authority to make such delegation.

     6.   Representations and Warranties of the Company and Shareholders.

          Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Schedules by reference to the
specific section or subsections to which a disclosure pertains, the Company and
each of the Shareholders, jointly and severally, represent and warrant to Buyer
as follows:

          6.1 Organization and Good Standing: Corporate Matters. The Company is
a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of California, and is duly authorized or qualified to do
business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which the character of
the properties owned by it or the nature of the Business makes such
authorization or qualification necessary and where the failure to be so
authorized or qualified would have a Material Adverse Effect (as hereinafter
defined) on the Company. As used in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated,
the term "Material Adverse Effect" when used in connection with the Company,
means any event, circumstance, change or effect that is, or could reasonably be

Company or the Business; or (xiv) any agreement or commitment by the Company or

the Company owns or otherwise has the right to use (free of any burdensome
conditions or restrictions) all of the property and assets, real, personal or
mixed, tangible or intangible, now used in the operation of the Business, or
the use of which is necessary for the performance of any Material Contract or
the conduct of the Business as now conducted and as presently contemplated to be
conducted.

               (a)  Tangible Personal Property. Except as set forth in Schedule
6.7(a), the Company has furnished to Buyer a true and correct listing of all
machinery, implements, supplies, equipment, computers, furniture, fixtures,
vehicles, tools, and all other similar assets or tangible personal property
owned, leased or used by the Company other than any of such items that are not
necessary for the conduct of the Business as currently conducted. The assets
contained on such listing constitute all the tangible personal property
reasonably necessary for the conduct by the Company of the Business, and such
assets are in good operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear
excepted, and have been properly maintained. Except as disclosed in Schedule
6.7(a), no personal property used by the Company in connection with the Business
is held under any lease, security agreement, conditional sales contract, or
other title retention or security agreement, or is located other than in the
possession of the Company.

               (b)  Intangible Personal Property. Schedule 6.7(b) attached
hereto contains a true and correct list of all patents and patent applications,
copyrights and applications therefor, trademarks, trade names and service marks,
whether or not registered, and whether owned or licensed for use by the Company,
and any applications therefor, designs, drawings, processes, inventions,
products, computer software, firmware or hardware and other trade secrets and
know-how (the "Intangible Personal Property") owned by the Company or used in
or necessary to the conduct of the Business. Schedule 6.7(b) also contains a
list of all license agreements and other arrangements under which the Company
uses, or licenses to any third party, any patents, trademarks or other
intellectual property, true and complete copies of which have been provided to
Buyer. The Company owns or is licensed, or otherwise has the full right and
authority to use, all Intangible Personal Property required for the conduct of
the Business in the manner presently conducted, and such use does not conflict
with, infringe upon or violate any trademark, trade name, copyright, patent
rights or trade secret rights of any other person or entity. Neither the Company
nor any of its products or advertising or marketing materials, (i) has
infringed, or is now infringing, any patent, trade name, trademark, service
mark, copyright, trade secret, technology, know-how or process belonging to any
other person, firm or corporation, which infringement would have a Material
Adverse Effect on the Company or (ii) has breached or violated or is in breach
or violation of any license agreement governing the use of any intellectual
property by the Company which, in either case, would have a Material Adverse
Effect on the Company. Except as disclosed in Schedule 6.7(b), neither the
Company nor any Shareholder has received any written notice or other indication
of any such claim of infringement or violation.

               (c)  Real Property. Schedule 6.7(c) attached hereto contains a
correct list of the addresses of each parcel of real property owned by, leased
to or used in any way by the Company (the "Real Properties"), together with a
brief description of the structures thereon and the uses being made thereof, and
a list of all leases under which the Company possesses or uses real property
(the "Real Property Leases"). True and correct copies of the Real Property
Leases, and any and all amendments thereto, have been delivered to Buyer. The
Real Properties constitute all of the real properties and structures and
improvements necessary for the Company to conduct the Business. Each of the Real
Property Leases is valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its
terms, and is in full force and effect. The Company is not in material
default, and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice

                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10

or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material default under, or which
would entitle the lessor to terminate, any of such Real Property Leases. The
Company has also delivered to Buyer true and correct copies of any and all title
insurance policies or commitments and environmental studies or reports in the
possession or control of the Company or any Shareholder with respect to any of
the Real Properties. The zoning of each parcel of Real Property permits the
presently existing improvements and structures and the continuation of the
Business presently conducted thereon. To the best knowledge of the Shareholders,
no changes in such zoning are pending or threatened, and no condemnation or
similar proceedings are pending against any such parcel of real property.

               (d)  Title. Except as set forth in the Financial Statements or
in Schedule 6.7(d) attached hereto, the Company has good, valid and marketable
title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all of the assets and properties
(personal, real, mixed, tangible or intangible) which it purports to own or
lease, free and clear of any and all Liens other than Permitted Liens. As used
in this Agreement, the term "Permitted Liens" shall mean (i) mechanics',
carriers', workmen's, repairmen's or other similar Liens arising or incurred
in the ordinary course of business in respect of obligations which are not
overdue, or which are being contested in good faith; (ii) such Liens and minor
imperfections of title, if any, as are not material in amount, do not materially
detract from the value or impair the use of any material assets subject thereto
or the operations of the Business by the Company and have arisen only in the
ordinary course of business; and (iii) Liens for current Taxes (as hereinafter
defined) not yet due or for Taxes being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been set aside.

               (e)  Accounts Receivable. The Company has delivered to Buyer a
complete and current aging of all accounts receivable of the Company as of
August 31, 1998, as set forth on Schedule 6.7(e) attached hereto. All such
accounts receivable represent, and all accounts receivable arising from the
operation of the business of the Company between the date hereof and the
Closing (collectively, the "Accounts Receivable") will represent, amounts due
the Company for bona fide sales of products actually made or services actually
performed on or prior to the date such Accounts Receivable were or will be
recorded on the books of the Company, in the ordinary course of the Business
and consistent with past practices, and are, or on or prior to the Closing Date
will be, valid and collectible in full in the ordinary course of business. No
reserves for invalid or uncollectible receivables have been made, and, in the
opinion of the Shareholders, no such reserves are necessary. There is no
contest, claim or right of set-off contained in any oral or written agreement
with any account debtor relating to the amount or validity of any Account
Receivable.

               (f)  Inventories. The Company has furnished to Buyer a complete,
current and correct list of all inventories, including packaging materials,
components, supplies, raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods, of the
Company as of August 31, 1998 (the "Inventories"), as set forth in Schedule
6.7(f) attached hereto. The Inventories are, and as of the Closing Date will be,
of a quality and quantity usable and salable in the ordinary course of
business, except for items of obsolete, damaged or slow moving materials and
materials of below standard quality, all of which have been written off or
written down to net realizable value and, in the aggregate, are not material in
amount.

assets and properties are subject to: (a) any employment contract with any
officer, consultant, director or employee or any affiliate of the foregoing; (b)
any lease of real or personal property; (c) any agreement or understanding,

incurred in the ordinary course of business); (d) any instrument creating or
providing for the creation of any Lien on any

                                      -10-

of the assets or properties of the Company or evidencing or relating to
indebtedness constituting notes payable or long-term debt; or (e) any other

that the Company may have with any other person or entity that is material to
the Company or the Business, which shall include, without limitation, any oral

or suppliers listed on Schedule 6.10, and any amendments thereto. Except as
otherwise set forth on Schedule 6.8, each of such contracts, agreements,
licenses and instruments so listed, or required to be so listed, or described or
required to be described in a written summary required to be delivered pursuant
hereto, is a valid and binding obligation of the Company and, to the knowledge
of the Shareholders, also of the other parties thereto, and is enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be affected by
bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights
generally and general principles of equity relating to the availability of
equitable remedies. Except as otherwise set forth in Schedule 6.8 hereto, there
have not been any defaults by the Company or, to the knowledge of the
Shareholders, any defaults or claims of default or of non-enforceability by the
other party, or parties to such contracts, agreements, licenses and instruments
which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect on
the Company or the Business and, to the knowledge of the Shareholders, there are
no facts, events or conditions that have occurred which, through the passage of
time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default by the Company
or by the other party or parties under any of such contracts, agreements,
licenses and instruments that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect on the Company or the Business or that would create or result in
the imposition of a Lien on any material assets or properties of the Company.

         6.9   Employees; Labor Matters and Employee Plans.

               (a)  Schedule 6.9 attached hereto contains complete, current and

of the Company, which lists include the job position(s) of and compensation and
benefits payable to each of such individuals as a result of his or her

to receive fees or other compensation from the Company. The Company has
furnished to Buyer a true and correct copy of its employee handbook (if one
exists) and a written description of all material employment or personnel
policies of the Company not set forth therein.

               (b)  Except as set forth in Schedule 6.9, the Company is not a
party to or otherwise bound by or subject to any collective bargaining or other
labor, employment, deferred compensation, bonus, retainer, consulting, or
incentive agreement, plan or contract. Except as disclosed in Schedule 6.9,
there has been no strike or other work stoppage by nor to the knowledge of any
of the Shareholders, has there been any union organizing activity among any of
the employees of the Company. The Company is in compliance, in all material
respects, with all applicable laws respecting employment and employment
practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, and is not
engaged in any unfair labor practice. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.9, there
is no unfair labor practice complaint pending or, to the best knowledge of any
of the Shareholders, threatened against the Company, nor, to the best knowledge
of any of the Shareholders, is there any factual basis for any such complaint.

               (c)  Schedule 6.9 also contains a complete, current and correct
list of all Employee Plans (as hereinafter defined) of the Company (true,
correct and complete copies of which have

                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12

been delivered to Buyer). For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Employee
Plan" includes all present plans, programs, agreements or any other arrangements
(including all amendments to and components of same, such as a trust with
respect to a plan) providing any remuneration or benefits, other than current
cash compensation, to any current or former employee of the Company or to any
other person who provides, or at any time since January 1, 1995 provided,
services to the Company, whether or not such plans, programs, agreements or any
such other arrangements, are subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or are qualified under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, (as amended, the "Code"). By way of example, but without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the term Employee Plan includes, but is not
limited to, employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA),
pension, retirement, profit sharing, stock option, stock bonus, and
non-qualified deferred compensation plans, any multiemployer plan (as defined in
Section 3(37) of ERISA), disability, medical, dental, health insurance, life
insurance,'incentive compensation, vacation benefit, and fringe benefit plans,
programs or arrangements. Any and all tax returns, reports, forms or other
documents required to be filed by the Company under applicable federal, state or
local law with respect to the Employee Plans have been timely filed and are
correct and complete in all material respects; and any and all amounts due by
the Company to any governmental agency or entity with respect to the Employee
Plans have been timely and fully paid. Except as disclosed in Schedule 6.9, the
Company has not terminated any Employee Plan.

               (d)  Except as set forth in Schedule 6.9, all Employee Plans are
now, and have always been, established, maintained and operated in accordance,
in all material respects, with all applicable laws (including, but not limited
to, ERISA and the Code) and all regulations and interpretations thereunder and
in accordance with their plan documents. All communications with respect to each
Employee Plan by any members of any plan committee, plan fiduciaries, plan
administrators, the Company or its Boards of Directors or employees, accurately
reflect the documents and operations of each such Employee Plan in all material
respects. The Internal Revenue Service has issued one or more determination
letters with respect to each funded Employee Plan stating that, from the
inception of each such Employee Plan, such Employee Plan has been and is
qualified under Section 401 of the Code and each trust maintained in connection
with each such Employee Plan has been and is exempt under Section 501 of the
Code. No Employee Plan is a multiemployer plan within the meaning of the Code or
ERISA, a defined benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(35) of ERISA, a
plan subject to Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code, or funded
through a welfare benefit fund (as defined in Section 419 of the Code). The
Company has not participated in, maintained, contributed to or been required to
contribute to any employee benefit plan subject to Title IV of ERISA or any
retiree medical or retiree life insurance benefit plan. All contributions
required to be made to or with respect to each Employee Plan and all costs of
administering each Employee Plan have been completely and timely paid. All
reports, forms and other documents required to be filed with any governmental
entity with respect to any Employee Plan have been timely filed and are
accurate. There is and there has been no actual or, to the knowledge of the
Shareholders, no threatened or expected litigation or arbitration concerning or
involving any Employee Plan. No complaints to or by any government entity have
been filed or, to the knowledge of the Shareholders, have been threatened or are
expected with respect to any Employee Plan. No Employee Plan or any other person
has any liability to any plan participant, beneficiary or other person under any
provision of ERISA, the Code or any other applicable law by reason of any action
or failure to act in connection with any Employee Plan. There has been no breach
of fiduciary duty or prohibited transaction as described in Section 406 of ERISA
and Section 4975 of the Code with respect to any Employee Plan. No Employee Plan
provides medical benefits to one or more former employees (including retirees),
other than benefits required to be provided under Section 4980B of the Code or
Sections 601 to 608 of ERISA. Each welfare benefit plan (as defined in Section
3(2) of ERISA) is, and has been, in material compliance with the requirements of
Code Section 4980B and Section 601 to 608 of ERISA. There is no contract,

                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13
agreement or benefit arrangement covering any employee of the Company which
individually or collectively would constitute an "excess parachute payment"
under Section 280G of the Code.

          (e)  Except as set forth in Schedule 6.9, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not (i) entitle any individual
to severance pay, or (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting, or
increase the amount, of compensation that, but for such transactions, would be
due to any individual. The Company has delivered to the Buyer true, correct and
complete copies of each plan, agreement or arrangement relating to the
foregoing, including all amendments thereto.

          (f)  With respect to any insurance policy providing funding for
benefits under any Employee Plan, (i) there is no material liability of the
Company in the nature of a retroactive or retrospective rate adjustment, loss
sharing arrangement, or other actual or contingent liability, nor would there
be any such material liability if such insurance policy was terminated on the
date hereof, and (ii) to the knowledge of the Shareholders, no insurance
company issuing any such policy is in receivership, conservatorship,
liquidation or similar proceeding and, neither the Company nor any of the
Shareholders has received any notice that any such proceeding with respect to
any such insurance company is pending or imminent.

     6.10  Customers and Suppliers. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.10,
Schedule 6.10 attached hereto contains correct and current lists of (a)all
customers or clients of the Company, including original equipment manufacturers
("OEMs"), who accounted for more than five percent (5%) of the consolidated
sales of the Company in either of the two most recent fiscal years, showing the
approximate aggregate dollar amount of sales to each such customer during each
of such fiscal years; and (b) the ten (10) largest suppliers of the Company in
terms of purchases during each of the two most recent fiscal years, showing the
approximate aggregate dollar amounts of purchases by the Company from each such
supplier during each of such fiscal years. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.10,
there has been no change in the business relationship of the Company with any
customer or supplier named in Schedule 6.10 which has had or could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or the Business.

and its directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents and successors and

Damages" (as hereinafter defined) that arise from or are in connection with:

                           (i)   Except as provided in Section 14.1(b) below,
                any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any of the representations or
                warranties of any of the Shareholders contained in this
                Agreement or in any of the Disclosure Schedules or any
                certificates delivered hereunder;

                           (ii)  Except as provided in Section 14.1(b) below,
                any breach or default by the Shareholders of their covenants
                or agreements contained in this Agreement;

                           (iii) Any claim, lawsuit, action or other proceeding
                that (i) is pending against the Company and/or any of the
                Shareholders on the Closing Date, except only to the extent that
                such claim, lawsuit, action or other proceeding is taken into
                account as a reduction of the Net Asset Value in the Closing
                Balance Sheet, or (ii) is brought against Buyer or the Company
                as a result of or arising from any acts or omissions of or for
                the Company or the Shareholders that have occurred on or before
                the Closing Date or any acts or omissions of the Shareholders
                that may occur after the Closing Date, and whether or not the
                bringing or assertion of any such claim, lawsuit, action or
                other proceeding constitutes a breach of the Shareholders'
                representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or is
                disclosed in Disclosure Schedules;

                           (iv) The failure to have paid or to pay, when due,
                any Taxes or effect any withholdings that arose out of the

                transactions contemplated by or preceding this Agreement or the
                failure to have filed, when due, any Tax Returns related to any
                such Taxes or any period up to the Closing Date, whether or not
                such failure constitutes a breach of the representations or
                warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement or is disclosed
                in the Disclosure Schedules;

                           (v)   Any claim, lawsuit, action or other proceeding
                that is brought against the Company or the Buyer in connection
                with any payments made to the senior executives of the Company
                under the Bonus Plan;

                           (vi)  The existence prior to the Closing Date of any
                toxic or hazardous substances or materials upon, about or
                beneath the Real Properties or migrating or threatening to
                migrate from any of the Real Properties or the violation of
                applicable environmental laws or regulations pertaining to the
                Real Properties, or any real properties at which the Company
                previously conducted any operations and whether or not the
                existence of such toxic of hazardous

                                      -30-

<PAGE>   31

substances or materials or the existence or occurrence of any such violations
was disclosed to Buyer.

                       (b) Each Shareholder, severally and not jointly, shall
indemnify, hold harmless and defend Buyer and each of the other indemnified
parties named in Section 14.1(a) above, from and against any and all Damages
that arise from or in connection with any breach or inaccuracy in any of such
Shareholder's representations or warranties contained in Section 5 or in any
Disclosure Schedules or Closing certificate relating to any such representations
or warranties of such Shareholder.

                14.2   Damages. "Damages," as used in this Section 14, shall
mean: (i) demands, claims, actions, suits, investigations and legal or other
proceedings brought against any indemnified party or parties, and any judgments
or assessments, fines or penalties rendered therein or any settlements thereof,
and (ii) all liabilities, damages, losses, Taxes, assessments, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and accountants'
fees and expenses) incurred by any indemnified party or parties, to the extent
not reimbursed or paid for by insurance, whether or not they have arisen from or
were incurred in or as a result of any demand, claim, action, suit, assessment
or other proceeding or any settlement or judgment.

                14.3   Limitations.

                       (a) Time. No claim for indemnification under this Section
14 may be made after April __, 2000, except that claims for indemnification may
be made by the Buyer at any time after the Closing and prior to the expiration
of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to Damages arising from
any breach of any of the representations and warranties of the Company and the
Shareholders (and indemnification therefor) contained in Section 6.13
(Environmental and Safety Matters), and Section 6.16 (Taxes and Tax Returns).

                       (b) Threshold Amount. The Shareholders shall not have any
obligation to indemnify the Buyer or any of the other indemnified parties named
in Section 14.1(a) unless and until the indemnified parties have incurred or
suffered Damages in an aggregate amount in excess of Twenty-Five Thousand
Dollars ($25,000) (the "Threshold"), whereupon the Shareholders shall become
obligated to indemnify the indemnified parties for all Damages they have
incurred, including the amount of the Threshold, but subject to the
Indemnification Ceilings hereinafter set forth in Section 14.3(b); provided,
however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any indemnification
obligation of the Shareholders pursuant to Section 14.1(a)(iii), 14.1(a)(iv) or
14(a)(v) above, or any reduction to the Purchase Price pursuant to Sections 2.3,
3 and 8.12 above.

                       (c) Ceiling Amount. The aggregate liability for
indemnification under Section 14.1 of the Shareholders shall in no event exceed
the Purchase Price (the "Indemnification Ceiling").

                14.4   Notice of Claims. Whenever any claim shall arise for
indemnification hereunder, the indemnified party shall promptly notify the other
party or parties from whom indemnity may be sought therefor under this Section
14 (the "indemnifying party") of the claim and, when known, the facts
constituting the basis for such claim; provided that the indemnified party's
failure to give such notice shall not affect any rights or remedies of such
indemnified party hereunder with respect to indemnification for Damages except
to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced thereby. In
the event that the Shareholders are collectively the indemnifying parties, the
Buyer shall only be required to deliver a Notice of Claim to the Shareholder
Representative. In the event of any claim for indemnification hereunder

                                      -31-

<PAGE>   32

resulting from or in connection with any claim or legal proceeding by a third
party, the notice to the indemnifying party shall specify, if known, the amount
or any estimate of the amount of the liability arising therefrom. Neither the
indemnified party nor any indemnifying party shall settle or compromise any
claim by a third party for which the indemnified party is entitled to
indemnification hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other party
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless suit shall have been
instituted against the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall not
have taken control of such suit after notification thereof as provided in
Section 14.6 of this Agreement

                14.5   Third Party Claims. In connection with any claim giving
rise to indemnify hereunder that results or may result from or arises or may
arise out of any claim or legal proceeding by a person who is not a party to
this Agreement, the indemnifying party at its sole cost and expense may, upon
written notice to the indemnified party, assume the defense of any such claim or
legal proceeding if, within fifteen (15) days of receipt of notice of the claim
or proceeding, it elects in writing to do so, and thereafter diligently conducts
the defense thereof with counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party.
If the indemnifying party has so assumed the defense of any such claim or legal
proceeding the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in (but not
control) the defense of any such action, with its counsel and at its own
expense. If the indemnifying party does not assume or falls to conduct in a
diligent manner the defense of any such claim or litigation resulting therefrom
with counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party, then (in) the
indemnified party may defend against such claim or litigation, in such manner as
it may deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, settling such claim or
litigation, after giving notice of the same to the indemnifying party, on such
terms as the indemnified party may deem appropriate, (ii) the indemnifying party
shall pay the costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and cost of the
attorneys and accountants for the indemnified parties) incurred in the defense
of such claim or other proceeding as and when the same are incurred, and (iii)
the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control)
the defense of such claim or proceeding, with its counsel and at its own
expense. If the indemnifying party thereafter seeks to question the manner in
which the indemnified party defended such third-party claim or proceeding or
the amount or nature of any such settlement, the indemnifying party shall have
the burden to prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the indemnified
party did not defend or settle such third-party claim or proceeding in a
reasonably prudent manner.  Each party agrees to cooperate fully with the
other, such cooperation to include, without limitation, attendance at
depositions and the provision of relevant documents as may be reasonably
requested by the indemnifying party; provided that the indemnifying party will
hold the indemnified party harmless from all of its expenses, including
reasonable and actual attorneys' fees, as and when incurred in connection with
such cooperation by the indemnified party.

                14.6   Indemnification Procedures. Upon receipt of a notice of
claim for indemnification (a "Notice of Claim"), the indemnifying parties shall
have fifteen (15) business days to contest their indemnification obligation with
respect to such claim, or the amount thereof, by written notice to the
indemnified party (a "Contest Notice"); provided, however, that if, at the time
a Notice of Claim is submitted to the indemnifying parties the amount of the
Damages in respect thereof cannot yet be determined, such fifteen (15) day
period shall not commence until a further written notice (a "Notice of
Liability") has been sent or delivered by the indemnified party to the
indemnifying parties setting forth the amount of the Damages incurred by the
indemnified parties in respect of the indemnification claims that were the
subject of the earlier Notice of Claim. Any Contest Notice shall specify the
reasons or bases for the objection of the indemnifying party to the claim, and
if the objection relates to the amount of the Damages asserted, the amount, if
any, which indemnifying parties believe is due the indemnified party or
parties.  If no such Contest Notice is given within such 15-day period, the
obligation of the indemnifying parties to pay to the indemnified parties the
amount of the Damages set forth in the Notice of Claim, or subsequent Notice of
Liability, shall be deemed established and accepted by the indemnifying parties;

                                      -32-
<PAGE>   33
provided, however, that if the actual Damages later prove to be greater or less
than that set forth in the Notice of Claim or Notice of Liability, the
indemnifying parties shall be responsible for the actual Damages incurred. If,
on the other hand, the indemnifying parties contest a Notice of Claim or Notice
of Liability (as the case may be) within such 15-day period, the indemnified and
indemnifying parties shall thereafter attempt in good faith to resolve their
dispute by agreement. If they are unable to so resolve their dispute within the
immediately succeeding thirty (30) days, such dispute shall be resolved by
binding arbitration in Orange County, California, as provided in Section 18.8
below. The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties and
may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. Upon final determination
of the amount of the Damages that is the subject of an indemnification claim
(whether such determination is the result of indemnifying parties' acceptance
of, or failure to contest, a Notice of Claim or Notice of Liability, or as a
result of resolution of any dispute with respect thereto by agreement of the
parties or binding arbitration), such amount shall be payable, in cash, by the
indemnifying parties to the indemnified party or parties who have been
determined to be entitled thereto within five (5) days of such final
determination of the amount of the Damages due by the indemnifying parties.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Section 14,
if the indemnifying parties are contesting only the amount of any Damages, then
as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any Contest Notice, they shall
pay to the indemnified parties, concurrently with the delivery of such Contest
Notice, the portion of the Damages which they are not contesting. Any amount
that becomes due hereunder and is not paid when due shall bear interest at a
rate of eight percent (8%) per annum until paid.

               14.7  Subrogation. In the event that an idemnifying party pays
all or any portion of a third party claim or demand concerning which the
indemnified party submits a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section
14, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to any and all defenses, claims
or other matters which the indemnified party asserted or could have asserted
against the third party making such claim or demand. The indemnified party shall
execute and deliver to the indemnifying party (and at the indemnifying party's
expense) such documents as may be reasonably necessary to establish by way of
subrogation the ability of the indemnifying party to assert such defenses,
claims or other matters against any third party making such claim or demands.

               14.8  No Benefit to Third Parties. None of the limitations
contained in this Section 14 on the rights of the indemnified parties or on the
obligations or liabilities of the Shareholders is intended or shall be construed
to confer or give, nor shall they confer or give, to any person, corporation or
other entity, other than the parties hereto and their respective heirs,
executors, representatives, successors and permitted assigns, any legal or
equitable or other right, remedy or benefit, nor shall they be construed to
alter or diminish any rights of the Company or any of the obligations of any
person, corporation or other entity, under any agreement that may exist between
the Company on the one hand, and any such other person, corporation or other
entity, on the other hand, as the provisions of this Section 14 are intended to
be and shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective heirs, executors, representatives, successors and permitted
assigns, and for the benefit of no other person, corporation or other entity.

               14.9  Holdback Amount. The Buyer shall be entitled to, but shall
not be obligated to, reduce the Holdback Amount by the amount of any Damages for
which the Buyer is entitled to indemnification from the Shareholders under this
Section 14.

               15. Confidentiality.

               Each party acknowledges that it may have access to various items
of proprietary and confidential information of the other in the course of
investigations and negotiations prior to Closing.

                                      -33-

Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.8 above, each party agrees that any
such confidential information received from the other party shall be kept
confidential and shall not be used for any purpose other than to facilitate the
arrangement of financing for and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated herein. The furnishing of financial statements and other
information of or relating to the Company or the Business by Buyer for purposes
of obtaining financing for the transactions contemplated hereby, or the
disclosure of such financial or other information by Buyer as provided in
Section 9.8 above, or the release of information to Buyer's insurers for risk
assessment purposes, shall not constitute a breach of this Section 15.
Confidential information shall include any business or other information which
is delivered by one party to the other, unless such information (i) is already
public knowledge or (ii) becomes public knowledge through no fault, action or
inaction of the receiving party, or (iii) was known by the receiving party, or
any of its directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents or advisors
prior to the disclosure of such information by the disclosing party to the
receiving party. No party hereto, nor its respective officers, directors,
employees, accountants, attorneys, or agents shall intentionally disclose the
existence or nature of, or any of the terms and conditions relating to, the
transaction referred to herein, to any third person, specifically including,
but not limited to, the employees of the Company; provided, however, that such
information may be disclosed (i) with the consent of the other parties hereto,
(ii) in applications or requests required to be made to obtain licenses,
permits, approvals or consents needed to consummate the transactions
contemplated herein, (iii) in Securities Filings as provided in Section 9.8
above, (iv) to the professional advisors of each party hereto, or (v) pursuant
to court order or subpoena. The restrictions contained in this Section 15 that
are applicable to Buyer shall terminate at the Closing.

          16.      Expenses

                   Each of the parties shall pay all costs and expenses incurred
or to be incurred by it in negotiating and preparing this Agreement and in
closing and carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
including without limitation, the fees and expenses of their respective counsel,
accountants and consultants and none of the assets of the Company shall be
reduced or diminished by any such costs or expenses incurred by the
Shareholders.

          17.      Notices.

                   All notices, requests, demands, and other communications

<PAGE>   36
against the waiving party unless it is in writing and specifically refers to

shall attempt in good faith to reach agreement on the appointment of a retired
judge from the JAMS panel as mediator. If they cannot agree within twenty (20)
days after such notice, JAMS will provide a list of three available retired
judges (which judges, to the extent available on a timely basis, should have
substantial experience in the area of the Dispute) and each party may strike one
name from the list. The remaining judge shall be appointed as mediator. The
parties shall each pay their own expenses of mediation, including attorney's
fees, and shall share equally the mediator's fees and expenses.

                         (c)      Arbitration. All disputes which are not
resolved through cooperation and mediation shall be finally resolved by binding
arbitration by a single arbitrator in accordance with the Federal Arbitration
Act.9 USCA 1, et. seq. in effect at the time. Each party to this Agreement can
initiate arbitration pursuant to this Agreement by serving notice on the
other party of an intent to arbitrate. Each of the parties consents to venue
for such arbitration in Orange County, California, if proceedings are

                                      -36-

commenced by the Buyer, and in Santa Clara County, California, if proceedings
are commenced by the Company or any Shareholder. The notice shall specify with
particularity the claims or issues that are to be arbitrated. Within ten days of
receipt of the notice by all parties, the parties shall use all reasonable
efforts to obtain a list of available arbitrators from the appropriate office of
JAMS and select a mutually acceptable arbitrator. If the parties are unable to
agree on an arbitrator within ten days, any party may petition the Presiding
Judge of the forum's Superior Court to select a single arbitrator from the JAMS
list. The parties shall have the discovery rights available under the forum's
Civil Rules, subject to the limitation that each side shall be limited to no
more than five depositions unless, upon a showing of good cause, the party can
convince the arbitrator that more depositions should be permitted. It shall be
the intention of the parties to select an arbitrator and set a schedule
according to the following: (1) all discovery must be concluded within 120 days
of the selection of an arbitrator, (2) the arbitration hearing must be concluded
within 30 days of the close of discovery and it will be conducted in accordance
with the forum's Rules of Evidence, and (3) the arbitrator's final decision
shall be rendered within ten days of the final hearing day. Judgment upon the
arbitrator's final award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. The parties shall bear in equal shares the arbitrator's fees and costs.
In those cases where the arbitrator's judgment consists solely of monetary
damages, the prevailing party in the arbitration shall be awarded its reasonable
attorneys' fees and all costs, other than the arbitrator's fees and costs. For
the purpose of determining who is the prevailing party, each side will submit to
the other a single written offer of settlement ten days prior to the start of
the arbitration hearing and the party whose offer most closely resembles the
arbitrator's award shall be deemed the prevailing party for the purpose of
awarding attorneys' fees.

                   18.9  Assignment. No Shareholder may assign this Agreement,
or assign its rights or delegate its duties hereunder, without the prior written
consent of Buyer. Prior to the Closing, Buyer may not assign this Agreement, or
assign its rights or delegate its duties hereunder, without the prior written
consent of the Shareholder Representative.

                   18.10 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is
illegal, invalid or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such
illegality, invalidity or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the
remaining provisions hereof.
