8.2 Indemnification.

(a) By the Company. The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser and each of its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively the “Purchaser Group”) from and against any and all costs, losses, Liabilities, damages, lawsuits, deficiencies, claims and expenses, including without limitation, penalties, costs of mitigation, clean-up or remedial action, reasonable attorneys’ fees and all amounts paid to third parties in investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Damages”), suffered by Purchaser, incurred in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or incident to (i) any breach of any covenant, representation, warranty or agreement or the inaccuracy of any representation, made by the Company in or pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) Liabilities that are not Assumed Liabilities.

(b) By Purchaser. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, its officers, managers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (the “Company Group”) from and against any and all Damages incurred in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or incident to any (i) breach of any covenant, representation, warranty or agreement or the inaccuracy of any representation made by Purchaser in or pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) Assumed Liabilities.

(c) Resolution of Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought to the other party (the “Claim Notice”). Upon receipt of a Claim Notice, the party from whom indemnification is sought shall have fifteen (15) Business Days to object, in writing, to such claim (the “Dispute Notice”), otherwise the party seeking indemnification shall have the right to enforce its indemnity rights as defined hereunder. If the party from whom indemnification is sought provides the other party with a Dispute Notice in a timely fashion, the parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights or the respective parties with respect to such claim. If the parties agree as to the resolution of such claim, they shall prepare a memorandum setting forth the terms of such resolution signed by each of the parties hereto and enforce the indemnification rights hereunder. If no agreement is reached within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, the dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

(d) Third Party Claims; Defense of Claims. If any Action or Proceeding is filed or initiated against any party entitled to the benefit of indemnity hereunder, written notice thereof shall be given to the indemnifying party as promptly as practicable (and in any event within ten (10) days after the service of the citation or summons); provided, however, that a delay or failure of any indemnified party to give timely notice shall not affect rights to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates actual damage caused by such failure. Any such notice shall state (with reasonable specificity) the basis on which indemnification is being asserted, the amount of Damages for which indemnification is being asserted and copies of all relevant pleadings, demands and other papers

being served on the indemnified party. After such notice, the indemnifying party may, if it so elects, take control of the defense and investigation of such Action or Proceeding and to employ and engage attorneys of its own choice to handle and defend the same, such attorneys to be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, at the indemnifying party’s sole cost, risk and expense (unless the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such Action or Proceeding), and compromise or settle such Action or Proceeding, which compromise or settlement shall be made only with the written consent of the indemnified party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The indemnified party may withhold such consent if such compromise or settlement would adversely affect the conduct of business or requires less than an unconditional release to be obtained. If the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of such Action or Proceeding within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice thereof pursuant to this Section 8.2, the indemnified party against which such Action or Proceeding has been filed or initiated will (upon delivering notice to such effect to the indemnifying party) have the right to undertake, at the indemnifying party’s own cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such Action or Proceeding on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that such Action or Proceeding shall not be compromised or settled without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event the indemnified party assumes defense of the Action or Proceeding, the indemnified party will keep the indemnifying party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement and will consult with, when appropriate, and consider any reasonable advice from, the indemnifying party of any such defense, compromise or settlement. The indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action subject to indemnification and effected pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 8.2 and for any final judgment (subject to any right of appeal), and the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party from and against any Damages by reason of such settlement or judgment.

The indemnified party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the indemnifying party and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of such Action or Proceeding and any appeal arising therefrom; provided, however, that the indemnified party may, at its own cost, participate in the investigation, trial and defense of such Action or Proceeding and any appeal arising therefrom.

(e) Limitations on Indemnity.

The Company shall have no liability to Purchaser for amounts payable pursuant to its indemnification obligations in this Section 8.2 until the total of all such Damages incurred by any member of the Purchaser Group, individually or in the aggregate, exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (the “Threshold Amount”), and then indemnification by the indemnifying party shall apply to all such Damages exceeding the Threshold Amount. Purchaser shall have no liability to the Company for amounts payable pursuant to its indemnification obligations in this Section 8.2 until the total of all such Damages incurred by any member of the Company Group, individually or in the aggregate, exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (the “Threshold Amount”), and then indemnification by the indemnifying party shall apply to all such Damages exceeding the Threshold Amount.

The Indemnity Shares shall be the sole and exclusive means for Purchaser to collect any Damages for which it is entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII. The maximum aggregate amount of indemnification for any Damages for which the Company is required to indemnify the members of the Purchaser Group under this Agreement shall be limited to the aggregate value of the Indemnity Shares. The maximum aggregate amount of indemnification for any Damages for which Purchaser is required to indemnify the members of the Company Group under this Agreement shall be limited to the aggregate value of the Indemnity Shares.

The limitations on the Company’s and Purchaser’s indemnification obligations in 0 and 0 above shall not apply to any Damages arising out of or in connection with any fraud or intentional breach by Purchaser or the Company of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or obligation of such party.

For all purposes of this Article VIII, the value of Indemnity Shares shall be determined at the time a claim for indemnity is made and shall be the “Fair Market Value” of the Indemnity Shares at that time. For purposes hereof, “Fair Market Value” shall mean the average of the closing price of the common stock of Purchaser as quoted or traded on its primary inter-dealer quotation system or any securities exchange, over the ten (10) trading day period ending three (3) trading days prior to the date on which the subject claim for indemnification is made hereunder. However, if at any time the common stock of Purchaser is not listed on any securities exchange or quoted on an inter-dealer quotation system, “Fair Market Value” shall mean the fair value of the class or series of capital stock of Purchaser constituting Indemnity Shares as determined in good faith and in the sole discretion of a reputable appraiser chosen by the Company’s Board of Directors and Purchaser’s Board of Directors, together. If these respective Boards of Directors cannot agree on an appraiser within thirty (30) days from the making of the claim, each Board of Directors shall choose a reputable appraiser within ten (10) days thereafter and such appraiser shall have ten (10) additional days to choose the final appraiser, whose appraisal shall be binding on the parties. The cost of such process shall be borne equally by the Company and Purchaser.

8.3 Restriction on Transferability of the Securities. The certificates representing the Securities (if and when issued) shall bear the following legend restricting transfer, and such other legends as may be required by any applicable state securities law:

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT OR ANOTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION.

8.4 Agreement not to dispose of Indemnity Shares. The Company agrees that, for purposes of keeping the Indemnity Shares available for satisfaction of any claims for indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII hereof (if necessary), it will make no transfer, sale or hypothecation of the Indemnity Shares until twelve (12) months following the Closing Date.

8.5 Further Assurances. In case at any time after the Closing any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each of the parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as the other party reasonably may request, at the sole cost and expense of the requesting party (unless the requesting party is entitled to indemnification therefor under this Article VIII).

8.6 Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view to making available to the Company the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Company to sell Purchaser’s Common Stock to the public without registration, Purchaser agrees to use its best efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times ; and

(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of Purchaser under the Act and the 1934 Act.

8.7 Transfer of Rights to Name. Subject to approval of the Company’s stockholders, the Company shall transfer and assign to Purchaser all rights in the name “Computer Information Enterprises,” as the same may be used in whole.

8.8 Access to Records. After the Closing Date, Purchaser shall retain for a period consistent with Purchaser’s record-retention policies and practices those records of the Company relating to the Purchased Assets. Purchaser also shall provide the Company (including the Company’s accountants and auditors) reasonable access thereto, during normal business hours and on at least three days’ prior written notice, to enable them to prepare financial statements or Tax Returns or deal with Tax audits. After the Closing Date, the Company shall provide Purchaser (including Purchaser’s accountants and auditors) reasonable access to records relating to Excluded Assets, during normal business hours and on at least three days’ prior written notice, for any reasonable business purpose specified by Purchaser in such notice.

8.9 Transitional Use of Financial System. The Company may designate one of its employees who will have the right, for a period of 90 days following the Closing, to use (the “Financial System”) for the purpose of generating and maintaining the Company’s financial reporting obligations and practices. Such employee shall have full use of (and access to) the Financial System for such 90 day period.
