Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. On May 28, 1996, Mark Solutions, Inc. ("Mark") acquired all of the capital stock of Simis Medical Imaging, Limited, a privately held British company ("SMI") for $ 1,250,000 payable in Common Stock of Mark. The Mark Common Stock will be issued pursuant to Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. The consideration paid by Mark was established through arms-length negotiations between Mark and the SMI shareholders and was based on the potential revenues Mark management believes SMI and related IntraScan system sales will generate. At the initial closing, Mark issued an aggregate of 108,696 shares of Common Stock representing $ 625,000 of the purchase price. The balance of the purchase price will be paid in Common Stock on November 28, 1996 and the number of shares to be issued will be calculated by dividing $ 625,000 by the closing sales on November 25, 1996; provided, however, the maximum number of shares to be issued by Mark is 1,000,000. In addition, Christopher Cummins, one of the former shareholders of SMI has entered into a three-year employment agreement with SMI which provides for, among other things, (i) an annual salary of U.K. Pounds 60,000 in the initial year with U.K. Pound 5,000 increases in the succeeding two years and (ii) an annual bonus equal to 10% of the post tax profits of SMI. SMI is the developer of the IntraScan II software which Mark has been marketing under an exclusive dealer agreement covering North and South America. Item 7.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers, their employees, representatives and agents against any expenses, including attorneys' fees, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, monetary judgments and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any threatened, pending or completed claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or pertaining to any act or omission which arises out of or is based upon the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Purchaser in the Agreement or in any certificate or other instrument furnished to Sellers by Purchaser. 10.4. Indemnification Notice Procedure. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party seeking indemnification shall promptly notify the indemnifying party as set forth below. The party seeking indemnification shall promptly notify the other party as the indemnifying party of the claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim. In the event of any claim for indemnification hereunder resulting from or in connection with any claim or legal proceedings by a third party, the notice to the indemnifying party shall specify, if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of the liability arising therefrom. The indemnified party shall not settle or compromise any claim by a third party for which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder, without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless suit shall have been instituted against it and the indemnifying party shall not have taken control of such suit after notification thereof as provided for below. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising 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 it acknowledges to the indemnified party in writing its obligations to indemnify the indemnified party with respect to all elements of such claim. The indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such action, with its counsel 12 and at its own expense. If the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of any such claim or litigation resulting therefrom, (i) 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, and (ii) the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such action, 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 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 in a reasonably prudent manner.
