prior to the Closing. The Sellers and the Principal Shareholder will refer all

about the transactions or the terms, conditions or other facts relating thereto,
including the fact that discussions are taking place with respect thereto or the
status thereof, or the fact that confidential information has been made
available by the Sellers to the Purchaser. The Purchaser and the Sellers will
each advise its Representatives who are aware of the proposed transaction of the
obligation of confidentiality and of the fact that federal and state securities

information concerning such issuer from purchasing or selling securities of such
issuer or from communicating such information to any person under circumstances

sell such securities.

unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area, to
delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable
term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and
that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable
term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified.

     11.0 REMEDIES FOR BREACHES OF THIS AGREEMENT.

     11.01 Survival of Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements.

          (a) All of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
of the Sellers and the Principal Shareholder contained in Sections 3.11 and 3.17

continue in full force and effect subject only to any applicable statutes of
limitations.

          (b) All of the other representations, warranties, covenants and

a period of five (5) years from the Closing Date except that the provisions of
Section 10.5 shall continue in effect for the period of time specified therein.

     11.02 Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of the Purchaser.

          (a) In the event that either the Sellers or the Principal Shareholder
breach (or in the event any Third Party alleges facts that, if true, would mean
either the Sellers or the Principal Shareholder has breached) any of their
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this
Agreement, and, provided that the Purchaser makes a written claim for
indemnification against the Sellers and the Principal Shareholder prior to the
expiration of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements as set
forth in Section 11.01(a) or (b), as


                                       19


applicable, then the Sellers and the Principal Shareholder jointly and severally
agree to indemnify the Purchaser from and against the entirety of any Adverse
Consequences the Purchaser may suffer resulting from, arising out of or caused
by the breach (or the alleged breach) of any representation, warranty, covenant
or agreement of the Sellers or the Principal Shareholder referred to in Section
11.01(a) or (b), as applicable.

          (b) The Sellers and the Principal Shareholder also agree to jointly
and severally indemnify the Purchaser from and against the following:

               (i) the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Purchaser may
          suffer resulting from, arising out of or in connection with any
          Employee Plan, and related to any condition that existed on the
          Closing Date or any action or failure to act on the part of the
          Sellers or any other Person with respect to any such Employee Plan
          prior to the Closing Date. It is the intent of the Parties that the
          Purchaser shall be indemnified for all Adverse Consequences the
          Purchaser may suffer in connection with any Employee Plan which
          results from any condition that existed on the Closing Date or any
          action or failure to act by any Person prior to the Closing Date. The
          obligations of the Sellers and the Principal Shareholder under this
          Section 11.02(b)(i) shall survive the Closing Date and continue in
          full force and effect subject only to any applicable statutes of
          limitations; and

               (ii) the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Purchaser may
          suffer resulting from, arising out of or caused by:

                    (A) any Liability of the Sellers which is not an Assumed
          Liability (including any Liability of the Sellers that becomes a
          Liability of the Purchaser under any bulk sales or transfer law of any
          jurisdiction, under any common law doctrine of de facto merger or
          successor liability, or otherwise by operation of law);

                    (B) any Liability of the Sellers for unpaid Taxes with
          respect to any Tax year or portion thereof ending on or before the
          Closing Date (or for any Tax year beginning before and ending after
          the Closing Date to the extent allocable to the portion of such period
          beginning before and ending on the Closing Date); or

                    (C) any Excluded Liability, Excluded Asset, or act, event,
          occurrence or circumstances in respect of or relating to the Staffing
          Business prior to the Closing Date (other than any act, event or
          occurrence or circumstance related to an Employee Plan for which
          indemnity is provided in Section 11.02(b)(i)). The obligations of the
          Sellers and the Principal Shareholder under this Section 11.02(b)(ii)
          shall survive the Closing Date and continue in full force and effect
          subject only to any applicable statutes of limitations; and

               (iii) the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Purchaser may
          suffer resulting from, arising out of or in connection with any tax
          lien or tax assessment. The obligations of the Sellers under this
          Section 11.02(b)(iii) shall survive the Closing Date and continue in
          full force and effect subject only to the applicable statutes of
          limitations.

          (c) Any amounts payable by the Sellers or the Principal Shareholder to
the Purchaser for indemnification for any and all claims under Section 11.02 may
be offset or deducted by Purchaser from the Escrow Amount and/or any Deferred
Purchase Price under the Agreement for Sale of Goodwill between Purchaser and
William L. Booth of even date herewith (provided that Purchaser shall provide
Sellers and the Principal Shareholder with written notice of any such offset or



                                       20


deduction), without limiting Purchaser's right to seek further indemnification
from Sellers or the Principal Shareholder.

     11.03 Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of the Sellers. In the event
the Purchaser breaches (or in the event any Third Party alleges facts that, if
true, would mean the Purchaser has breached) any of its representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and provided
that the Sellers makes a written claim for indemnification against the Purchaser
on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, then the Purchaser
agrees to indemnify the Sellers from and against the entirety of any Adverse
Consequences the Sellers may suffer resulting from, arising out of, or caused by
the breach (or the alleged breach); provided, however, that the aggregate amount
payable by the Purchaser to the Sellers for any and all claims under this
Section 11.03 shall be limited to $100,000.

     11.04 Matters Involving Third Parties.

     (a) If any Third Party shall notify any Party (the "Indemnified Party")
with respect to any matter (a "Third Party Claim") which may give rise to a
claim for indemnification against any other Party (the "Indemnifying Party") as
provided in Section 11.01, 11.02 or 11.03, then the Indemnified Party shall
promptly notify each Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided, however,
that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying
Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless
(and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced.

     (b) Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified
Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party
notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within fifteen (15) days after the
Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the
Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the
entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting
from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third
Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with
evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying
Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim
and fulfill its indemnification obligations, (iii) the Third Party Claim
involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable
relief, (iv) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third
Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely
to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing
business interests of the Indemnified Party, and (v) the Indemnifying Party
conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently.

     (c) So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the
Third Party Claim, (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at
its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party
Claim, (ii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment
or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the
prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be withheld
unreasonably), and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be withheld
unreasonably).

     (d) In the event any of the conditions in Section 11.04(b) is or becomes
unsatisfied, (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the
entry of any judgment or enter into any


                                       21


settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim in any manner it reasonably
may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain
any consent from, any Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), (ii) subject
to any limitations set forth in Section 11.03, the Indemnifying Parties will
reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for any Adverse
Consequences suffered by the indemnified Party in defending against the Third
Party Claim, and (iii) subject to any limitations set forth in Section 11.03, as
applicable, the Indemnifying Parties will remain responsible for any Adverse
Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of,
relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim to the fullest
extent.

     11.05 Other Indemnification Provisions. The foregoing indemnification
provisions are in addition to, and not in derogation of, any statutory,
equitable, or common law remedy any Party may have for breach of representation,
warranty, or covenant.

     12.0 MISCELLANEOUS.

     12.01 Press Releases and Public Announcements. No Party shall issue any
press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject matter of

other Parties; provided, however, that any Party may make any public disclosure
