To the best of Seller's knowledge, there is no unauthorized use, infringement or misappropriation on the part of any third party of the Purchased Assets (including without limitation the Intellectual Property); and

(c) Seller has taken reasonable steps (including, without limitation, entering into confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with all officers and employees of and consultants to Seller with access to or knowledge of the Purchased Assets (including without limitation the Intellectual Property)) to maintain the secrecy and confidentiality of, and its proprietary rights in, the Purchased Assets (including without limitation the Intellectual Property) necessary or required for, or used in, the conduct of the business of Seller as presently conducted.

4.11 Supply Agreements.

All such Supply Agreements are in full force and effect and are valid and effective in accordance with their respective terms against Seller, as the case may be, and against the other party thereto. Seller holds right, title and interest under the terms of each Supply Agreement free of all Liens. Seller is not in default under any such Supply Agreements (or has caused an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default), nor, to the best of Seller's knowledge, is the other party thereto in default (or has caused an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) under any such Supply Agreements.

No agreement pursuant to which Seller has licensed the use of any products to any third party obligates Seller to provide any change in specification in the performance of such products or to provide new products or services.

4.12 Warranties and Indemnities. The Seller Disclosure Schedule sets forth a summary of all warranties and indemnities, express or implied, relating to products sold or services rendered by Seller, and no warranty or indemnity has been given by Seller which is not listed on the Seller Disclosure Schedule or which differs therefrom in any respect.

The Seller Disclosure Schedule also indicates all warranty and indemnity claims currently pending against Seller.

4.13 Accounts Receivable. All accounts receivable, notes receivable and other receivables included in the Purchased Assets are valid, genuine and fully collectible in the aggregate amount thereof, net of Seller's allowances for doubtful accounts attributable to the IZ Business determined in accordance with GAAP.

4.14 Licenses and Permits. Seller holds all consents, approvals, registrations, certifications, authorizations, permits and licenses of, and has made all filings with, or notifications to, all Governmental Entities pursuant to applicable requirements of all federal, state, local and foreign laws, ordinances, governmental rules or regulations applicable to the business, including, but not limited to, all such laws, ordinances, governmental rules or regulations relating to registration of the products of the IZ Business (at their current level of development and use) and certification of the facilities of the IZ Business, except where the failure to hold any such consent, approval, registration, certification, authorization, permit or license of, or make any filing with, or notification to, any Governmental Entity would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the IZ Business. The IZ Business is in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws, ordinances, governmental rules and regulations relating to the products manufactured by the IZ Business or otherwise related to the IZ Business, except where the failure to comply with any such federal, state, local or foreign law, ordinance, governmental rule or regulation would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the IZ business, and Seller has no reason to believe that any consents, approvals, authorizations, registrations, certifications, permits, filings or notifications that it has received or made to operate the IZ Business are invalid or have been or are being suspended, canceled, revoked or questioned. There is no investigation or inquiry to which Seller is a party or, to Seller's knowledge, pending or threatened, relating to the IZ Business and its compliance with applicable foreign, state, local or foreign laws, ordinances, governmental rules or regulations. Each such consent, approval, registration, certification, authorization, permit or license is transferable and shall be transferred to Buyer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

4.15 Employees.

(a) Schedule 4.15 sets forth the names and job titles of all of the Employees. All employees, consultants, officers, directors and shareholders of Seller or any Seller subsidiary that have had access to the Purchased Assets are parties to a written agreement (a "Confidentiality Agreement"), under which each such person or entity (i) is obligated to disclose and transfer to Seller, without the receipt by such person of any additional value therefor (other than normal salary or fees for consulting services), all inventions, developments and discoveries which, during the period of employment with or performance of services for Seller, he or she makes or conceives of either solely or jointly with others, that relate to any subject matter with which his or her work for Seller may be concerned, or relate to or are connected with the IZ Business, products or projects of Seller, or involve the use of the time, material or facilities of Seller, and (ii) is obligated to maintain the confidentiality of proprietary information of Seller. None of Seller's employees, consultants, officers or directors is obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or to the best of Seller's knowledge subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would conflict with their obligation to promote the interests of Seller with regard to the IZ Business or the Purchased Assets or that would conflict with the IZ Business or the Purchased Assets. Neither the carrying on of the IZ Business by its employees and consultants, nor to the best of Seller's knowledge the execution or the delivery of this Agreement, will conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any of such persons or entities are now obligated. It is currently not necessary nor will it be necessary for Seller to utilize in the IZ Business any inventions of any of such persons or entities (or people it currently intends to hire) made or owned prior to their employment by or affiliation with Seller, nor is it or will it be necessary to utilize any other assets or rights of any such persons or entities (or people it currently intends to hire) made or owned prior to their employment with or engagement by Seller, in violation of any registered patents, trade names, trademarks or copyrights or any other limitations or restrictions to which any such persons or entity is a party or to which any of such assets or rights may be subject. To the Seller's knowledge, none of Seller's employees, consultants, officers, directors or shareholders that has had knowledge or access to information relating to the Purchased Assets has taken, removed or made use of any proprietary documentation, manuals, products, materials, or any other tangible item from his or her previous employer relating to the Purchased Assets by such previous employer which has resulted in Seller's access to or use of such proprietary items included in the Purchased Assets, and Seller will not gain access to or make use of any such proprietary items in the IZ Business, except to the extent that any such activities would not have a material adverse effect on the Purchased Assets or the IZ Business.

(b) Except for the Confidentiality Agreement, there are no written or oral contracts of employment between Seller and any Employee.

(c) Seller is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement covering any employee and Seller knows of no effort to organize any of its employees as a part of any collective bargaining unit. Seller's employees are not members of a trade union certified as a bargaining agent with the Seller and, to the best of Seller's knowledge, no proceedings to implement any such certifications are pending.

4.16 Employee Benefit and Compensation Plans. Buyer will incur no liability with respect to, or on account of, and Seller will retain any liability for, and on account of, any employee benefit plan of Seller, any of its Affiliates or any predecessor employer of any employee, including, but not limited to, liabilities Seller may have to such employees under all employee benefit schemes, incentive compensation plans, bonus plans, pension and retirement plans, profit-sharing plans (including any profit-sharing plan with a cash-or-deferred arrangement) share purchase and option plans, savings and similar plans, medical, dental, travel, accident, life, disability and other insurance and other plans or arrangements, whether written or oral and whether "qualified" or "non-qualified," or to any employee as a result of termination of employment by Seller as contemplated by this Agreement (including any liabilities under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act ("COBRA")). Seller has not, with respect to any employee, maintained or contributed to, or been obligated or required to contribute to, any retirement or pension plan or any employee benefit plan. The Seller has complied with all of its obligations (including obligations to make contributions) in respect of the retirement or pension funds of which its employees are beneficiaries, there is no outstanding liability of the Seller or any of its Affiliates to any such funds and all such funds are fully funded to meet all potential claims for benefits by any and all such employees and any former employee.

4.17 Taxes. All Taxes have been or will be paid by Seller which are due or properly accrued with respect to all periods (or portions thereof) prior to and including the Closing Date, and at the request of Buyer, Seller shall provide Buyer with proof of such payment. Seller and any other person required to file returns or reports of Taxes have duly and timely filed (or will file prior to the Closing Date) all returns and reports of Taxes required to be filed prior to such date, and all such returns and reports are true, correct, and complete. There are no liens for Taxes on any of the Purchased Assets. Seller has complied with all record keeping and tax reporting obligations relating to income and employment taxes due with respect to compensation paid to employees or independent contractors providing services to the IZ Business. Seller is not a "foreign person" within the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the Code. There are no pending or, to Seller's knowledge, threatened proceedings with respect to Taxes, and there are no outstanding waivers or extensions of statutes of limitations with respect to assessments of Taxes. No agreement or arrangement regarding compensation of any employee providing services to the IZ Business provides for any payments which could result in a nondeductible expense to the Buyer pursuant to Section 280G of the Code or an excise tax to the recipient of such payment pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code.

4.18 Compliance with Law. The operation of the IZ Business has been conducted in all material respects in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations and other requirements of Governmental Entities having jurisdiction over the same.

4.19 Material Contracts.

(a) Schedule 2.1(b) contains a list of all Contracts which are material to the Business.

(b) Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the IZ Business, each Contract is a legal, valid and binding agreement, and none of the Contracts is in default by its terms or has been canceled by the other party; Seller is not in receipt of any claim of default under any such Contract; and Seller does not anticipate any termination or change to, or receipt of a proposal with respect to, any such Contract as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby. Seller has furnished Buyer with true and complete copies of all such Contracts together with all amendments, waivers or other changes thereto.

4.20 Litigation; Other Claims.

(a) There are no claims, actions, suits, inquiries, proceedings, or investigations against Seller, or any of its officers, directors or shareholders, relating to the IZ Business, the Purchased Assets or Seller's employees which are currently pending or, to the best of Seller's knowledge, threatened, at law or in equity or before or by any Governmental Entity, or which challenges or seeks to prevent, enjoin, alter or materially delay any of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor is Seller aware of any basis for such claims, actions, suits, inquiries, proceedings, or investigations; and no Governmental Entity has at any time challenged or questioned the legal right of Seller to manufacture, offer or sell any of its products or services in the present manner or style thereof.

(b) There are no grievance or arbitration proceedings pending or threatened, and there are no actual or threatened strikes or work stoppages with respect to the IZ Business, the Purchased Assets or Seller's employees, nor is Seller aware of any basis for such proceedings or events.

4.21 Defaults. Seller is not in default under or with respect to any judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or any Governmental Entity which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the IZ Business or any of the Purchased Assets. There does not exist any default by Seller or by any other Person, or event that, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default under any agreement entered into by Seller as part of the operations of the IZ Business which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the IZ Business or the Purchased Assets, and no notices of breach thereof have been received by Seller.

4.22 Schedules. The schedules describing the Purchased Assets are complete and accurate and describe the assets in the possession of, or used by Seller in connection with the IZ Business. The property listed in such Schedules constitutes all of the tangible and intangible property necessary for the conduct by Seller of the IZ Business.

4.23 Full Disclosure. Seller is not aware of any facts pertaining to the Purchased Assets which affect the IZ Business or the Purchased Assets in a materially adverse manner or which will in the future affect the IZ Business or the Purchased Assets in a materially adverse manner. Neither this Agreement nor any other agreement, exhibit, schedule or officer's certificate being entered into or delivered pursuant to this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained in such document not misleading.

4.24 Brokers and Finders. Neither Seller nor any of its officers, directors or employees has employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any brokerage fee, commission or finder's fee in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.25 Fair Consideration; No Fraudulent Conveyance. The sale of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement is made in exchange for fair and equivalent consideration. Seller is not now insolvent and will not be rendered insolvent by the sale, transfer and assignment of the Purchased Assets pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Seller is not entering into this Agreement or any of the other agreements referenced in this Agreement with the intent to defraud, delay or hinder its creditors and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the other agreements referenced in this Agreement, will not have any such effect. The transactions contemplated in this Agreement or any agreements referenced in this Agreement will not constitute a fraudulent conveyance, or otherwise give rise to any right of any creditor of Seller to any of the Purchased Assets after the Closing.

4.26 Insurance. The Seller Disclosure Schedule lists all insurance policies and fidelity bonds covering the Purchased Assets. There is no claim by Seller pending under any of such policies or bonds as to which coverage has been questioned, denied or disputed by the underwriters of such policies and bonds. All premiums due and payable under all such policies and bonds have been paid and Seller is otherwise in material compliance with the terms of such policies and bonds (or other policies and bonds providing substantially similar insurance coverage). There is no threatened termination of, or material premium increase with respect to, any of such policies.

6. Covenants.

6.1 Access to Information.

(a) Prior and subsequent to the Closing, Seller will permit Buyer to make a full and complete investigation of the Purchased Assets and to receive from Seller all information of Seller relating to the Purchased Assets or reasonably related to Seller's conduct of the IZ Business. Without limiting this right, Seller will give to Buyer and its accountants, legal counsel, and other representatives full access, during normal business hours, at a mutually agreeable location arranged in advance, to all of the books, records, files, documents, properties, and contracts of Seller relating to the Purchased Assets or reasonably related to Seller's conduct of the IZ Business and allow Buyer and any such representatives to make copies thereof, all of which shall be made available in an organized fashion and so as to facilitate an orderly review. This Section 6.1 shall not affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty contained herein or the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller shall maintain and make available the information and records specified in this Section 6.1(a) in the ordinary course of Seller's business and document retention policies, as if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement had not occurred.

(b) At all times following the Closing, each party shall provide the other party (at such other party's expense) with such reasonable assistance, including the provision of available relevant records or other information and reasonable access to and cooperation of any employees, as may be reasonably requested by either of them in connection with the preparation of any financial statement or tax return, any audit or examination by any taxing authority, or any judicial or administrative proceeding relating to liability for Taxes.

6.2 Third Party Consents. Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, within the applicable time periods required, all Required Consents, waivers, permits, consents and approvals and to effect all registrations, filings and notices with or to third parties or Governmental Entities which are necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so as to preserve all rights of, and benefits to, the Buyer in the Purchased Assets. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an assignment of, or an attempt to assign to Buyer, any contract (or rights therein) or Governmental Entity authorization which, as a matter of law or by its terms, is (i) not assignable, or (ii) not assignable without the approval or consent of the issuer thereof or the other party or parties thereto, without first obtaining such approval or consent (collectively, "Non- Assignable Rights"). In connection with such Non-Assignable Rights, and without prejudice to the rights of Buyer elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller shall, at the request of Buyer:

(a) apply for and use all reasonable efforts to obtain all consents or approvals contemplated by the Purchased Assets (or rights therein) or Governmental Entity authorization, in a form satisfactory to Buyer acting reasonably;

(b) co-operate with Buyer in any reasonable and lawful arrangements designed to provide the benefits of such Non-Assignable Rights to Buyer, including holding any such Non-Assignable Rights in trust for Buyer or acting as agent for Buyer;

(c) enforce any rights of Seller arising from such Non- Assignable Rights against the issuer thereof or the other party or parties thereto;

(d) take all such actions and do, or cause to be done, all such things at the request of Buyer as shall reasonably be necessary and proper in order that the value of any Non-Assignable Rights shall be preserved and shall enure to the benefit of Buyer; and

(e) pay over to Buyer, all monies collected by or paid to Seller in respect of such Non-Assignable Rights.

If Seller is unable to lawfully provide the benefit of any Non-Assignable Right to Buyer, it shall not, at any time, use such Non-Assignable Right for its own purposes or assign or provide the benefit of such Non-Assignable Right to any other party.

6.3 Certain Notifications. At all times prior to the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall promptly notify the other party in writing of the occurrence of any event which will result, or has a reasonable prospect of resulting, in the failure to satisfy any of the conditions specified in Section 8 or Section 9 of this Agreement.

6.4 Best Efforts. The Seller shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts (i) to cause to be fulfilled and satisfied all of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 8 below, (ii) to cause to be performed all of the matters required of it at the Closing and (iii) to cause the Contracts to be assigned to Buyer.

6.5 Tax Returns. Seller shall, to the extent that failure to do so could adversely affect Buyer, the IZ Business or the Purchased Assets following Closing, (a) continue to file in a timely manner all returns and reports relating to Taxes, and such returns and reports shall be true, correct and complete and shall be subject to the review and consent of Buyer which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (b) be responsible for and pay when due any and all Taxes attributable to or imposed upon Seller or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, or attributable to or imposed upon the Purchased Assets for any period (or portion thereof) through and including the Closing Date, including, without limitation, any Taxes attributable to or arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event Buyer makes any payment in respect of such Taxes as a result of Seller's failure to pay such Taxes when due, there shall be a partial forgiveness of the Note as set forth in Section 2.6(b) above.

6.6 Post-Closing Access to Information. If, after the Closing Date, in order properly to operate the IZ Business or prepare documents or reports required to be filed with governmental authorities or Buyer's financial statements, it is necessary that Buyer obtain additional information within Seller's possession relating to the Purchased Assets or the IZ Business, Seller will furnish or cause its representatives to furnish such information to Buyer. Such information shall include, without limitation, all agreements between Seller and any Person relating to the IZ Business. Seller shall maintain and make available the information and records specified in this Section 6.6 for a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date.

6.7 Post-Closing Cooperation. Seller agrees that, if reasonably requested by Buyer, it will cooperate with Buyer, at Buyer's expense, in enforcing the terms of any agreements between Seller and any third party involving the IZ Business, including without limitation terms relating to confidentiality and the protection of intellectual property rights. In the event that Buyer is unable to enforce its intellectual property rights against a third party as a result of a rule or law barring enforcement of such rights by a transferee of such rights, Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate with Buyer by assigning to Buyer such rights as may be required by Buyer to enforce its intellectual property rights in its own name. If such assignment still does not permit Buyer to enforce its intellectual property rights against the third party, Seller agrees to initiate proceedings against such third party in Seller's name, provided that Buyer shall be entitled to participate in such proceedings and provided further that Buyer shall be responsible for the expenses of such proceedings.

6.8 No Post-Closing Retention of Copies. Immediately after the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer or destroy copies of Purchased Assets in Seller's possession that are in addition to copies delivered to Buyer as part of the Closing, whether such copies are in paper form, on computer media or stored in another form; provided, however, that Seller may retain and use copies of financial books and records relating to the IZ Business as well as other documents required by law to be kept by Seller for the sole purpose of preparing its financial statements and other reports required by applicable law. The Seller shall not be permitted to use the financial books and records of the IZ Business for any other reason.

6.9 Public Announcements. On and prior to the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller shall advise and confer with each other prior to the issuance of any reports, statements or releases concerning this Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto) and the transactions contemplated herein. Neither Buyer nor Seller will make any public disclosure prior to the Closing or with respect to the Closing unless both parties agree on the text and timing of such public disclosure; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent either party at any time from furnishing any information to any Governmental Entity. Immediately after this Agreement is signed, both parties will make public announcements to their respective share exchanges; the text of such public announcements will be reviewed by the parties prior to release.

6.10 Post-Closing Actions. Subsequent to the Closing Date, Seller shall, from time to time, execute and deliver, upon the request of Buyer, all such other and further materials and documents and instruments of conveyance, transfer or assignment as may reasonably be requested by Buyer to effect, record or verify the transfer to, and vesting in Buyer, of Seller's right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Liens, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

6.11 Financial Statements. In the event Buyer is required by the rules and regulations promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to produce any financial statements covering a period or periods prior to the Closing Date, then Seller at Buyer's expense shall assist Buyer in the preparation thereof as reasonably requested by Buyer.

6.12 Permits. Seller will assist Buyer in obtaining any licenses, permits or authorizations required for carrying on the IZ Business but which are not transferable.

6.13 Taxes. Seller shall be responsible for paying, shall promptly discharge when due, and shall reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from, any sales or use, transfer, real property gains, excise, stamp, or other similar Taxes arising from, imposed on or attributable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and any other Taxes which are due or properly accrued with respect to all periods (or portions thereof) prior to and including the Closing Date, and at the request of Buyer, Seller shall provide Buyer with proof of such payment.

7. Employee Matters

7.1 Transferred Employees.

(a) Offer of Employment. Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7, Buyer may offer employment to any or all of the employees who are employed by Seller in the IZ Business as of the date of this Agreement (the "Employees"). Seller agrees that it will cooperate with Buyer to identify those employees of Seller who are necessary for the conduct the IZ Business. Prior to the Closing, Buyer, after notice to Seller as to the timing and method of contact, shall have the right to contact any or all of the Employees for the purposes of making offers of employment with Buyer (or any Affiliate designated by Buyer) after the Closing Date and receiving written acceptances of such employment (in each case contingent on consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). Upon Closing, Buyer (or any Affiliates designated by Buyer) shall hire those Employees to whom it has made an offer in accordance with this Section 7.1 and who accept such offer in the manner and within the time frame reasonably established by Buyer. Each such Employee who is employed by Seller on the Closing Date and who actually transfers to employment with Buyer (or any Affiliate designated by Buyer) at or after the Closing Date as a result of an offer of employment made by Buyer is hereafter referred to as a "Transferred Employee." Transferred Employees shall not include any person on a disability leave of more than twenty-six (26) weeks. On a periodic basis following the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing, Buyer shall advise Seller of its intentions with respect to the employees it desires to extend or has extended offers to and the general status of discussions with such employees. Buyer hereby notifies Seller of Buyer's intent to offer employment to all Employees set forth on Schedule 7.1(a) on terms and conditions substantially equivalent to, or greater than, such Employees' current terms and conditions of employment. Notwithstanding such periodic disclosures made to Seller, Buyer shall not be obligated to hire any employee unless an offer of employment is subsequently made to, and accepted by, such employee; in addition, Buyer shall have no obligation to hire any employees of Seller after the Closing Date.

(b) Transition. Seller hereby agrees that it will not terminate the employment of any Employee prior to the Closing; provided, however, that Seller will terminate the employment of Ronald Dan Berst and Philip Bane immediately prior to the Closing. The employment by Seller of the Transferred Employees shall end at the close of business on the Closing Date and the employment of the Transferred Employees by Buyer shall commence at 12:01 a.m. on the day after the Closing Date. The terms of employment with Buyer (or Buyer's Affiliates) shall be as mutually agreed to between each Transferred Employee and Buyer (or Buyer's Affiliate, as the case may be), subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1. Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Seller will provide each Transferred Employee with the same level of compensation as that currently provided by Seller. Buyer shall have no obligation with respect to payments of salary, compensation, wages, health or similar benefits, commissions, bonuses (deferred or otherwise), severance (including any severance pay owed to Ronald Dan Berst and Philip Howard Bane), stock or stock options or any other sums due to any Transferred Employee that accrued as of or before the Closing Date. Other than as listed on Schedule 7.1(b), Seller will be fully responsible for all amounts payable to any employee who is not a Transferred Employee, including (without limitation) all termination payments, redundancy compensation, severance pay, accrued vacation pay and other amounts payable in respect of the termination of employment of any employee in connection with the sale of the Purchased Assets to the Buyer. In addition, Seller will be fully responsible for all amounts owing to Transferred Employees prior to Closing.

(c) Retention of Employees Prior to Closing. Seller agrees to use reasonable efforts to retain the Employees as employees of the IZ Business until the Closing Date, and to assist Buyer in securing the employment after the Closing Date of those Employees to whom Buyer (or designated by Buyer) makes or intends to make offers of employment under subsection (a) above. Seller shall not transfer any Employee to employment with Seller outside of the IZ Business prior to the Closing or without the consent of Buyer. Seller shall notify Buyer promptly if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Employee terminates employment with Seller after the date of this Agreement but prior to the Closing. Buyer may request Seller to hire additional employees for the IZ Business, in which case Seller will use commercial reasonable efforts to identify and hire such employees.

7.2 Compensation and Benefits of Transferred Employees. Coverage for Transferred Employees under Buyer's compensation and benefit plans and other programs shall commence as of 12:01 a.m. on the day after the Closing Date. Buyer shall be free to establish its own employee benefit plans; Buyer shall have no obligation to offer benefit plans of the same type or with terms similar to or better than the terms of Seller's current employee benefit plans. Buyer may, at its option, give each Transferred Employee credit for such Transferred Employee's years of most recent continuous service with Seller for purposes of determining participation and benefit levels under all of Buyer's vacation policies and benefit plans and programs.

7.3 Other Employees of the IZ Business. With respect to each employee of the IZ Business as of the Closing Date who is not a Transferred Employee (each a "Non-Transferred Employee"), Seller agrees to either terminate such Non-Transferred Employee's employment with Seller, effective prior to the Closing or offer such Non-Transferred Employee continued employment with Seller other than in the IZ Business. Seller further acknowledges that the Non-Transferred Employees shall not be employees of Buyer after the Closing.

7.4 No Right to Continued Employment or Benefits. No provision in this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary or other right in any Person (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) for any reason, including, without limitation, in respect of continued, resumed or new employment with Seller or Buyer (or any Affiliate of Seller or Buyer) or in respect of any benefits that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any plan or arrangement maintained by Seller, Buyer or any Affiliate of Seller or Buyer. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Buyer is under no obligation to hire any employee of Seller, provide any employee with any particular benefits, or make any payments or provide any benefits to those employees of Seller whom Buyer chooses not to employ.

Damages in each case shall be net of the amount of any insurance proceeds and indemnity and contribution actually recovered by Seller.

10.4 Method of Asserting Claims. All claims for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10 shall be made in accordance with the following provisions:

Buyer or Seller, as applicable, shall deliver to Seller or Buyer, respectively, at any time on or before the Indemnification Termination Date, a certificate signed by any officer of Buyer or Seller, as applicable (an "Officer's Certificate"):

(i) stating that Buyer or Seller, as applicable, or any other Buyer Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, respectively, has paid or incurred Damages and

(ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Damages included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid or incurred and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty or claim to which such item is related.

Seller or Buyer, as applicable, shall have thirty (30) days to object in writing to any claim or claims made in such Officer's Certificate pursuant to Section 10.5 below. After the expiration of such thirty-day period, if Seller or Buyer, as applicable, has raised no objections, Seller or Buyer, as applicable, shall deliver to Buyer or Seller, respectively, as promptly as practicable, either cash or, in the case of Seller, written evidence of Seller's partial forgiveness of the Note, in each case in an amount equal to such Damages.

10.5 Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration.

(i) In case Seller or Buyer, as applicable, shall object in writing to any claim or claims made in any Officer's Certificate, Seller and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims within 45 days after Buyer's or Seller's receipt of the other party's written objection to the claim pursuant to Section 10 (the "Negotiation Period"). If Seller and Buyer should so agree during the Negotiation Period, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and funds shall be distributed in accordance with the terms thereof.

(ii) If no such agreement has been reached by the end of the Negotiation Period, either Buyer or Seller may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Damages is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained by settlement or a non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction or both parties agree to binding arbitration. The binding arbitration shall be conducted in King County, Washington if brought by Seller and in Dallas County, Texas if brought by Buyer, in accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association by one arbitrator appointed in accordance with said rules. The Arbitrator shall apply Washington law, without reference to rules of conflicts of law or rules of statutory arbitration, to the resolution of any dispute. The written decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer's Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in Section 10 hereof, the parties shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments in accordance therewith. The arbitrator shall award reimbursement to the prevailing party in the arbitration of its reasonable expenses of the arbitration (including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees). The award of the arbitrator shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of the parties and shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief or other equitable remedies from any court of competent jurisdiction.

10.6 Third Party Claims. In the event either party becomes aware of a third-party claim which such party believes may result in a demand against the other party, such party shall notify the other party of such claim, and the other party shall be entitled, at the other party's expense, to participate in any defense of such claim; provided, however, that failure to so notify the other party shall not relieve such other party from any liability it has under this Agreement with respect to such third party claim. Each party shall have the right in its discretion to settle any such claim; provided, however, that except with the written consent of the other party, no settlement of any such claim with third-party claimants shall alone be determinative of the validity of any claim against such other party. In the event such other party has consented in writing to any such settlement, such other party shall have no power or authority to object under any provision hereof to the amount of any claim by consistent with such settlement.

10.7 Exclusive Contractual Remedy. Indemnification pursuant to this Section 10 shall be the exclusive contractual remedy of Buyer and Seller for any Damages; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit the liability of any officer or director of Seller for such person's fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

11. Miscellaneous.

11.1 Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended or waived with the written consent of the parties or their respective successors and assigns. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 11.1 shall be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

11.2 Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties.

11.3 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

11.8 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith, in order to maintain the economic position enjoyed by each party as close as possible to that under the provision rendered unenforceable. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

11.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents referred to herein are the product of all of the parties hereto, and constitute the entire agreement between such parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and merge all prior negotiations and drafts of the parties with regard to the transactions contemplated herein and therein. Any and all other written or oral agreements existing between the parties hereto regarding such transactions are expressly canceled.

11.10 Advice of Legal Counsel. Each party acknowledges and represents that, in executing this Agreement, it has had the opportunity to seek advice as to its legal rights from legal counsel and that the person signing on its behalf has read and understood all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
