                            ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

         THIS ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is dated June 1,
2000, and entered into by and between OS PACIFIC, INC., a Florida corporation
("Buyer"), and RESTAURANT CONCEPTS OF BONITA SPRINGS, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a
Florida limited partnership (the "Seller").


                                    RECITALS

         A.       Seller is a Florida limited partnership governed by and
operating under that certain Agreement of Limited Partnership of Restaurant
Concepts of Bonita Springs, Limited Partnership dated December 31, 1998
("Agreement of Limited Partnership").

         B.       The Seller is engaged in the business of owning and operating
an upscale restaurant known as "Roy's" and located at The Promenades, Space No.
A-1, Bonita Springs, Florida ("Restaurant").

         C.       The Restaurant utilizes trademarks, recipes and operating
systems as a licensee of Roy Yamaguchi and Roy's Worldwide, Inc. pursuant to a
Licensing and Services Agreement dated July 16, 1998 ("Licensing Agreement").

         D.       Pursuant to the provisions hereof, Buyer desires to purchase
from the Seller and the Seller desires to sell to Buyer substantially all of
the property and assets of the Seller, including the Restaurant.

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective
representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and conditions hereinafter
set forth, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree
as follows.

1.       PURCHASE OF THE RESTAURANTS

         1.1      Purchased Assets. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, on the Closing Date (as defined in SECTION 12.1), the Seller shall
sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to Buyer (or upon Buyer's request,
to an Affiliate of Buyer) and Buyer shall purchase and accept all of the
business, rights, claims and assets (of every kind, nature, character and
description, whether real, personal or mixed, whether tangible or intangible,
whether accrued, contingent or otherwise, and wherever situated) of the Seller,
together with all rights and privileges associated with such assets and with
the Restaurant and the business of the Seller, other than the Excluded Assets
(as hereinafter defined) (collectively the "Purchased Assets"), free and clear
of any debts, liabilities, claims, encumbrances or obligations other than the
Assumed Liabilities, as hereafter defined. The Purchased Assets shall include,
but not be limited to, those assets listed in ARTICLE 2 hereof. For purposes of
this Agreement, the term "Affiliate" shall mean any individual or entity
(hereafter a "Person"), directly or indirectly, through one or more
intermediaries, controlling, controlled by, or under common control with such
Person, as applicable. With respect to the Seller, the term "Affiliate" shall
include F. Beaven Smith and Ronald A. Patak. The term "control," as used in the
immediately preceding sentence, shall mean with respect to a corporation or
limited liability Seller the right to exercise, directly or indirectly, more
than fifty percent (50%) of the voting rights attributable to the controlled
corporation or limited liability company, and, with respect to any individual,
partnership, trust, other entity or association, the possession, directly or
indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or
policies of the controlled entity.

         1.2.     Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be Four Million
Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,800,000), subject to adjustments as provided

         Seller in cash on the Closing Date pursuant to SECTION 1.2 shall be

         accordance with the terms of this Agreement and utility and other
         deposits paid by Seller and transferred to Buyer; and

                  1.3(b)   Credits to Buyer. Buyer shall assume and Buyer shall
         receive a credit against the Purchase Price paid to the Seller in cash

                  by the Seller as of the Closing Date attributable to any
                  period or partial period of employment by the Seller prior to
                  the Closing Date, plus employee payroll taxes applicable
                  thereto due or to become due, for those employees of the
                  Seller who will be employed by Buyer after the Closing Date
                  and who have not as of the Closing Date taken vacation,
                  holiday or sick time earned prior to the Closing Date; and

                           (ii)     the amount of unredeemed gift certificates.

         SECTIONS 1.3(A) AND 1.3(B), either party may, within one year of the

         party would be entitled to a credit under SECTIONS 1.3(A) OR 1.3(B)
         and the other party shall pay the undisputed amount within thirty (30)
         days of receipt of the invoice.

(including the assumption by Buyer of the Assumed Liabilities) shall be
allocated among the Purchased Assets for tax purposes in accordance with
SCHEDULE 1.4 attached hereto. The Seller and Buyer will follow and use such

         Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Liens of any nature whatsoever

         thereof in the conduct of the normal operations of the Seller), have
         been maintained consistent with the standards generally followed in
         the industry and are sufficient to carry on the business of the Seller
         as conducted during the preceding twelve (12) months. To the best of
         Seller's knowledge, all buildings and other structures constituting
         the Restaurants' premises are in good condition and repair and have no
         structural defects or defects affecting the plumbing, electrical,

         same are now constituted. All of the Real Property has rights of
         access to dedicated public highways, as provided in and subject to the
         Real Property Lease. To the knowledge of the Seller, no fact or

         rights of access to and from the Real Property from and to the
         existing highways and roads and there is no pending or threatened
         restriction or denial, governmental or otherwise, upon such ingress
         and egress. To the Seller's knowledge, no public improvements have
         been commenced and to Seller's knowledge none are planned which in
         either case may result in special assessments against or otherwise
         materially adversely affect any Real Property. To the Seller's
         knowledge, no portion of any of the Real Property has been used as a
         landfill or for storage or landfill of hazardous or toxic materials.
         The Seller does not have notice or knowledge of any (i) Order
         requiring repair, alteration, or correction of any existing condition
         affecting any Real Property or the systems or improvements thereat,
         (ii) condition or defect which could give rise to an order of the sort
         referred to in "(i)" above, or (iii) underground storage tanks, or any
         structural, mechanical, or other defects of material significance
         affecting any Real Property or the systems or improvements thereat
         (including, but not limited to, inadequacy for normal use of
         mechanical systems or disposal or water systems at or serving the Real
         Property).

accurate list of all policies of fire, liability, product liability, workers

has been received with respect to any such policy, and the Seller has no
knowledge of any act or omission of the Seller that could result in

         the Seller is not in default of any term, covenant or obligation under
         any of the Real Property Lease, and no condition exists which, with
         the passage of time or giving of notice, would constitute a default
         under any term, covenant or obligation of Seller under the Real
         Property Lease.

                  4.14(b)  Personal Property Leases. Except as set forth in

         for the obligations of any person.

                  4.14(g)  Burdensome or Restrictive Agreements. The Seller is
         not a party to or bound by any agreement, deed, lease or other
         instrument which is so burdensome as to materially and adversely
         affect or impair the operation of the Restaurants. Without limiting
         the generality of the foregoing, the Seller is not a party to or bound
         by any agreement requiring it to assign any interest in any trade
         secret or proprietary information, or prohibiting or restricting it
         from competing in any business or geographical area or soliciting

         default under any lease, contract or commitment, nor has any event or
         omission occurred which through the passage of time or the giving of
         notice, or both, would constitute a default thereunder or cause the
         acceleration of any of its obligations or result in the creation of
         any Lien on any of the assets owned, used or occupied by it. To the
         knowledge of the Seller, no third party is in default under any lease,
         contract or commitment to which the Seller is a party, nor has any
         event or omission occurred which, through the passage of time or the
         giving of notice,




                                      10
<PAGE>   15

         or both, would constitute a default thereunder or give rise to an
         automatic termination, or the right of discretionary termination,
         thereof.

         4.15.    Labor Matters. The Seller has not experienced any labor
disputes, union organization attempts or any work stoppage due to labor
disagreements in connection with its business; (a) the Seller is in compliance
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; (b) there is no unfair labor practice charge or
complaint against the Seller pending or threatened; (c) there is no labor
strike, dispute, request for representation, slowdown or stoppage actually
pending or threatened against or affecting the Seller; (d) no question
concerning representation has been raised or is threatened respecting the
employees of the Seller; (e) no grievance which might have a material adverse
effect on the Seller, nor any arbitration proceeding arising out of or under
collective bargaining agreements, is pending and no such claim therefor exists;
and (f) there are no administrative charges or court complaints against the
Seller concerning alleged employment discrimination or other employment related
matters pending or threatened before the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission or any Government Entity, except as disclosed on SCHEDULE 4.10.

         4.16.    Employee Benefit Plans.

         The Seller has provided and/or identified each "employee benefit
plan," as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA which (i) is subject to any
provision of ERISA and (ii) is or was at any time during the last 5 years
maintained, administered or contributed to by the Seller or any affiliate (as
defined in Section 407(d)(7) of ERISA) and covers any employee or former
employee of the Seller or any affiliate or under which the Seller or any
affiliate has any liability. Such plans are referred to collectively herein as
the "Employee Plans." None of the Employee Plans would, individually or
collectively, constitute an "employee pension benefit plan" as defined in
Section 3(2) of ERISA, including, without limitation, a "multiemployer plan,"
as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA, or a "defined benefit plan," as defined
in Section 3(35) and subject to Title IV of ERISA, and no Employee Plan is
maintained in connection with any trust described in Section 501(c)(9) of the
Code. It is understood and agreed that Buyer is not assuming any Employee Plans
or liabilities associated therewith, and that the Seller shall retain all such
Employee Plans, including all obligations deriving directly or indirectly from
sponsoring or participating in such Employee Plans.

         Each Employee Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms
and the requirements prescribed by any and all statutes, orders, rules and
regulations, including but not limited to, ERISA and the Code, which are
applicable to such Plan. No assets of the Seller are or could be subject,
directly or indirectly, to any liability or lien by reason of any action or
inaction taken with respect to any Employee Plan maintained by the Seller.

         The Seller has no liability in respect of post-retirement health and
medical benefits for retired employees of the Seller or any affiliate,
determined using assumptions that are reasonable in the aggregate, over the
fair market value of any fund, reserve or other assets segregated for the
purpose of satisfying such liability (including for such purposes any fund
established pursuant to Section 401(h) of the Code). The Seller has reserved
its right to amend or terminate any Employee Plan or other benefit arrangement
providing health or medical benefits in respect of any active employee of the
Seller under the terms of any such plan and descriptions thereof given to
employees. With respect to any Employee Plans which are "group health plans"
under Section 4980B of the Code and Section 607(l) of ERISA, there has been
timely compliance in all material respects with all requirements imposed
thereunder, and under Parts 6 and 7 of Title I of ERISA generally, so that the
Seller and any affiliate have no (and will not incur any) loss, assessment, tax
penalty or other sanction with respect to any such plan.

         There has been no amendment to, written interpretation or announcement
(whether or not written) by the Seller or any affiliate relating to, or change
in employee participation or coverage under, any Employee Plan which would
increase the expense of maintaining such Employee Plan above the level of the
expense incurred in respect thereof for the fiscal year ended immediately prior
to the Closing Date.



                                      11

         4.17     Employment Compensation. SCHEDULE 4.17 contains a true and
correct list of all employees to whom the Seller is paying compensation,
including bonuses and incentives, at an annual rate in excess of Twenty
Thousand Dollars ($20,000) for services rendered or otherwise; and in the case
of salaried employees such list identifies the current annual rate of
compensation for each employee and in the case of hourly or commission
employees identifies certain reasonable ranges of rates and the number of
employees falling within each such range.

         4.18     Intellectual Property. In order to conduct the business of
the Seller, as such is currently being conducted or proposed to be conducted,
the Seller does not require the rights to any intellectual property that it
does not already have. To its knowledge, the Seller is not infringing and has
not infringed any intellectual property of another in the operation of the
business of the Seller, nor is any other person infringing the intellectual
property of the Seller. The Seller has not granted any license or made any
assignment of its rights in any intellectual property. The Seller does not pay
any royalties or other consideration for the right to use any intellectual
property of others. There is no Litigation pending or threatened to challenge
the Seller's right, title and interest with respect to its continued use of any
intellectual property. All intellectual property of the Seller are valid,
enforceable and in good standing, and there are no equitable defenses to
enforcement based on any act or omission of the Seller.

         4.19     Major Suppliers. SCHEDULE 4.19 contains a list of the five
(5) largest suppliers (other than alcoholic beverages) to the Seller for the
most recent fiscal year (determined on the basis of the total dollar amount of
purchases) showing the total dollar amount of purchases from each such supplier
during the last twelve months. The Seller does not have any knowledge or
information of any facts indicating, nor any other reason to believe, that any
of the suppliers listed on SCHEDULE 4.19 will not continue to be suppliers to
the business of the Seller after the Closing Date and will not continue to
supply the business with substantially the same quantity and quality of goods
at competitive prices.

         4.20     Assets Necessary to Business. The Purchased Assets include
all property and assets (except for the Excluded Assets), tangible and
intangible, and all leases, licenses and other agreements, which are necessary
to permit Buyer to carry on, or currently used or held for use in, the business
of the Seller as presently conducted and as conducted immediately prior to the
Closing Date.

         4.21     No Brokers or Finders. Neither the Seller nor any of its
managers, officers, employees, members or agents have retained, employed or
used any broker or finder in connection with the transaction provided for
herein or in connection with the negotiation thereof.

         4.22     Disclosure. No representation or warranty by the Seller in
this Agreement, nor any statement, certificate, schedule, document or exhibit
hereto furnished or to be furnished by or on behalf of the Seller pursuant to
this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby,
contains or shall contain any untrue statement of material fact or omits or
shall omit a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein
not misleading. All statements and information contained in any certificate or
Disclosure Schedule delivered by or on behalf of the Seller shall be deemed
representations and warranties of the Seller.

5.       REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF BUYER

when executed and delivered, the other documents and instruments to be executed

6.       EMPLOYEES - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

of the Seller who are employed by Buyer immediately after the Closing Date.

         6.2      Retained Responsibilities. Subject to SECTION 1.3(B) above,
the Seller agrees to satisfy, or cause its insurance carriers to satisfy, all
claims for benefits, whether insured or otherwise (including, but not limited

under Seller's employee benefit programs brought by, or in respect of, Affected

to SECTION 1.3(B) above, if any action on the part of the Seller prior to the

payments or termination benefits or (ii) by virtue of any state, federal or

the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer against such Liability.

7.       OTHER MATTERS

         7.1      Pre-Closing Revenue and Expenses. The Seller shall be

         7.3      Confidentiality.

                  7.3(a)   Definition. For the purpose of this Agreement,
         "Proprietary Information" shall include all information, whether
         owned, licensed or otherwise used by or in the possession of the
         Seller, which reasonably would be considered proprietary or
         confidential to the business of the Seller including but not limited
         to suppliers, customers, trade or industrial practices, marketing and
         technical plans, technology, personnel, organization or internal
         affairs, plans for products and ideas, recipes, menus, wine lists and
         proprietary techniques and other trade secrets. Notwithstanding the
         foregoing, "Proprietary Information" shall not include information
         which has entered the public domain.

                  7.3(b)   No Disclosure, Use, or Circumvention. Except in
         connection with Seller's or its Affiliates development of an
         authorized Roy's Restaurant, the Seller and its Affiliates shall not
         disclose any Proprietary Information to any third parties and will not
         use any Proprietary Information in the Seller's business or any
         affiliated business without the prior written consent of the Buyer and
         then only to the extent specified in that consent. Consent may be
         granted or withheld at the sole discretion of the Buyer. The Seller
         shall not contact any suppliers, customers, employees, affiliates or
         associates to circumvent the purposes of this provision.

                  7.3(c)   Maintenance of Confidentiality. The Seller shall
         take all steps reasonably necessary or appropriate to maintain the

employee of the Buyer or its Affiliates or otherwise solicit or induce any
employee of the Buyer or its Affiliates to terminate his or her employment, nor
shall the Seller act as partner, consultant, agent, owner or part owner, or in
any other capacity for any person or entity which solicits or otherwise induces
any employee of the Buyer or its Affiliates to terminate his or her employment
with the Buyer.

         7.5      Reasonableness of Restrictions; Reformation; Enforcement. The
parties hereto recognize and acknowledge that the limitations contained in
SECTIONS 7.3 AND 7.4 hereof are reasonable and properly required for the
adequate protection of the Buyer's interests. It is agreed by the parties
hereto that if any portion of the restrictions contained in SECTIONS 7.3 OR 7.4
are held to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, then the
restrictions shall be considered divisible, both as to the time and as to the
geographical area, with each month of the specified period being deemed a
separate period of time, so that the lesser period of time shall remain
effective so long as the same is not unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public
policy. The parties hereto agree that in the event any court of competent
jurisdiction determines the specified period or the specified geographical area
of the restricted territory to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public
policy, a lesser time period or geographical area which is determined to be
reasonable, nonarbitrary, and not against public policy may be enforced. If any
of the covenants contained herein are violated and if any court action is
instituted by the Buyer to prevent or enjoin such violation, the period of time
during which the business activities shall be restricted, as provided in this
Agreement, shall be lengthened by a period of time equal to the period between
the date of the breach of the terms or covenants contained in this Agreement
and the date on which the decree of the court disposing of the issues upon the
merits shall become final and not subject to further appeal.

        In the event it is necessary for the Buyer to initiate legal
proceedings to enforce, interpret or construe any of the covenants contained in
SECTIONS 7.3 AND 7.4 hereof, the prevailing party in such proceedings shall be
entitled to receive from the non-prevailing party, in addition to all other
remedies, all costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, of such proceedings
including appellate proceedings.

         7.6      Specific Performance. The parties agree that a breach of any
of the covenants contained in SECTION 7.3 AND 7.4 hereof will cause irreparable
injury to the Buyer for which the remedy at law will be inadequate and would be
difficult to ascertain and therefore, in the event of the breach or threatened
breach of any such covenants, the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to any
other rights and remedies it may have at law or in equity, to obtain an
injunction to restrain any threatened or actual activities in violation of any
such covenants. The parties hereby consent and agree that temporary and
permanent injunctive relief may be granted in any proceedings which might be
brought to enforce any such covenants without the necessity of proof of actual
damages, and in the event the Buyer does apply for such an injunction, that the
Buyer has an adequate remedy at law shall not be raised as a defense.

8.       FURTHER COVENANTS OF THE SELLER

         The Seller covenants and agrees as follows:

         8.1      Access to Information and Records. During the period
commencing thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall give
Buyer, its counsel, accountants and other representatives (i) access during
normal business hours to all of the properties, books, records, contracts and
documents of the Seller for the purpose of such inspection, investigation and
testing as Buyer deems appropriate (and the Seller shall furnish or cause to be
furnished to Buyer and its representatives all information with respect to the
business and affairs of the Seller as Buyer may request); (ii) access to
employees, agents and representatives for the purposes of such meetings and
communications as Buyer reasonably desires; and (iii) access to vendors,
customers, manufacturers of its machinery and equipment, and others having
business dealings with the Seller. Through the Closing Date, the Buyer and its
Affiliates shall not disclose any Proprietary Information obtained pursuant to
this paragraph to any third parties and until the Closing Date will not use any
such Proprietary Information in the Buyer's business or any affiliated business
without the prior written consent of the Seller and then only to the extent
specified in that consent. Consent may be granted or withheld at the sole
discretion of the Seller. The Buyer shall not contact any suppliers, customers,
employees, affiliates or associates to circumvent the purposes of this
provision. The Buyer shall take all steps reasonably necessary or appropriate
to maintain the strict confidentiality of the Proprietary Information through
the Closing Date.

         methods of purchase, sale, management, accounting or operation.

                  8.2(b)   Maintain Organization. The Seller will take such
         action as may be necessary to maintain, preserve, renew and keep in
         favor the material rights and franchises of the Seller and will use
         its commercially reasonable best efforts, to the extent material
         hereto, to preserve the business organization of the Seller intact, to
         keep available to Buyer the present officers and employees, and to
         preserve for Buyer its present relationships with suppliers and
         customers and others having business relationships with the Seller.

                  8.2(c)   No Breach. The Seller will not do or omit any act,
         or permit any omission to act, which may cause a breach of any
         material contract, commitment or obligation, or any breach of any
         representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Seller
         herein, or which would have required disclosure on SCHEDULE 4.8 had it
         occurred after the date of the Recent Balance Sheet and prior to the
         date of this Agreement.

                  8.2(d)   No Material Contracts. Other than reasonable and
         necessary contracts entered into in connection with opening the third
         Restaurant as contemplated by this Agreement, no contract or
         commitment will be entered into, by or on behalf of the Seller, except
         contracts, commitments, purchases or sales which are in the ordinary
         course of business and consistent with past practice, are not material
         to the Seller (individually or in the aggregate) and would not have
         been required to be disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule had they been
         in existence on the date of this Agreement.

                  8.2(e)   No Corporate Changes. The Seller shall not
         materially amend its Agreement of Limited Partnership or make any
         changes in ownership percentages.

                  8.2(f)   Maintenance of Insurance. The Seller shall maintain
         all of the insurance in effect as of the date hereof.

                  8.2(g)   Maintenance of Property. The Seller shall use,
         operate, maintain and repair all of their property in a normal
         business manner.

                  8.2(h)   Interim Financials. The Seller will provide Buyer
         with interim monthly financial statements and other management reports
         as and when they are available.

                  8.2(i)   No Negotiations. The Seller will not directly or
         indirectly (through a representative or otherwise) solicit or furnish
         any information to any prospective buyer, commence, or conduct
         presently ongoing, negotiations with any other party or enter into any
         agreement with any other party concerning the sale of the Seller, any
         Restaurants, the Seller's assets or business or any part thereof or
         any membership interest in the Seller (an "acquisition proposal"), and
         the Seller shall immediately advise Buyer of the receipt of any
         acquisition proposal.

         8.3      Consents. The Seller will use its commercially reasonable
best efforts prior to the Closing Date to obtain all consents necessary for the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

         8.4      Other Action. The Seller shall use its best efforts to cause
the fulfillment at the earliest practicable date of all of the conditions to
the parties' obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated in this
Agreement.

<PAGE>   21


         8.5      Disclosure. Through the Closing Date, the Seller shall have a
continuing obligation to promptly notify Buyer in writing with respect to any
matter hereafter arising or discovered which, if existing or known at the date
of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the
Disclosure Schedule, but no such disclosure shall cure any breach of any
representation or warranty which is inaccurate.

11.      INDEMNIFICATION

         11.1     By the Seller. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
ARTICLE 11, the Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Buyer, and its directors, officers, employees and Affiliates (hereinafter
"Buyer's Indemnitees"), from and against all Claims asserted against, resulting
to, imposed upon, or incurred by Buyer's Indemnitees or the business and assets
transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, directly or indirectly, by
reason of, arising out of or resulting from (a) the inaccuracy or breach of any
representation or warranty of the Seller contained in or made pursuant to this
Agreement (regardless of whether such breach is deemed "material"); (b) the
breach of any covenant of the Seller contained in this Agreement (regardless of
whether such breach is deemed "material"); or (c) any Claim against the Seller,
the Purchased Assets or the business of the Seller not specifically assumed by
Buyer pursuant hereto or which arises out of or relates to any event first
occurring on or prior to the Closing Date. As used in this ARTICLE 11, the term
"Claim" shall include (i) all Liabilities; (ii) all losses, damages (including,
without limitation, consequential damages), judgments, awards, settlements
approved by the Seller (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), costs and expenses (including, without limitation, interest
(including prejudgment interest in any litigated matter), penalties, court

claims, suits, actions, costs of investigation, causes of action, proceedings
and assessments, whether or not ultimately determined to be valid.

         11.2     By Buyer. Subject to the terms and conditions of this ARTICLE
11, Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller, its
controlling persons, its Affiliates, its partners and their officers,

Agreement (regardless of whether such breach is deemed "material"); or (c) all
Claims of or against the Seller specifically assumed by Buyer pursuant hereto
or which relate to the Purchased Assets and arise out of any event occurring

         11.3     Indemnification of Third-Party Claims. The obligations and
liabilities of any party to indemnify any other under this ARTICLE 11 with
respect to Claims relating to third parties shall be subject to the following
terms and conditions:

                  11.3(a)  Notice and Defense. The party or parties to be
         indemnified (whether one or more, the "Indemnified Party") will give
         the party from whom indemnification is sought (the "Indemnifying
         Party") written notice of any such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party
         will undertake the defense thereof by representatives chosen by it.
         Failure to give such notice shall not affect the Indemnifying Party's
         duty or obligations under this ARTICLE 11, except to the extent the
         Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. So long as the Indemnifying
         Party is defending any such Claim actively and in good faith, the
         Indemnified Party shall not settle such Claim. The Indemnified Party
         shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its representatives
         all records and other materials required by them and in the possession
         or under the control of the Indemnified Party, for the use of the
         Indemnifying Party and its representatives in defending any such
         Claim, and shall in other respects give reasonable cooperation in such
         defense.

                  11.3(b)  Failure to Defend. If the Indemnifying Party, within
         a reasonable time after notice of any such Claim, fails to defend such
         Claim actively and in good faith, the Indemnified Party will (upon
         further notice) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or
         settlement of such Claim or consent to the entry of a judgment with
         respect to such Claim, on behalf of and for the account and risk of
         the




                                      18
<PAGE>   23

         Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall thereafter have
         no right to challenge the Indemnified Party's defense, compromise,
         settlement or consent to judgment.

                  11.3(c)  Indemnified Party's Rights. Anything in this ARTICLE
         11 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) if there is a reasonable
         probability that a Claim may materially and adversely affect the
         Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other
         money payments, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend,
         compromise or settle such Claim, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall
         not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or
         compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which
         does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the
         claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from
         all Liability in respect of such Claim.

         11.4     Payment. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay the
Indemnified Party any amount due under this ARTICLE 11, which payment may be
accomplished in whole or in part, at the option of the Indemnified Party, by
the Indemnified Party setting off any amount owed to the Indemnifying Party by
the Indemnified Party. To the extent set-off is made by an Indemnified Party in
satisfaction or partial satisfaction of an indemnity obligation under this
ARTICLE 11 that is disputed by the Indemnifying Party, upon a subsequent
determination by final judgment not subject to appeal that all or a portion of
such indemnity obligation was not owed to the Indemnified Party, the
Indemnified Party shall pay the Indemnifying Party the amount which was set off
and not owed together with interest from the date of set-off until the date of
such payment at an annual rate equal to the average annual rate in effect as of
the date of the set-off, on those three maturities of United States Treasury
obligations having a remaining life, as of such date, closest to the period
from the date of the set-off to the date of such judgment. Upon judgment,
determination, settlement or compromise of any third party Claim, the
Indemnifying Party shall pay promptly on behalf of the Indemnified Party,
and/or to the Indemnified Party in reimbursement of any amount theretofore
required to be paid by it, the amount so determined by judgment, determination,
settlement or compromise and all other Claims of the Indemnified Party with
respect thereto, unless in the case of a judgment an appeal is made from the
judgment. If the Indemnifying Party desires to appeal from an adverse judgment,
then the Indemnifying Party shall post and pay the cost of the security or bond
to stay execution of the judgment pending appeal. Upon the payment in full by
the Indemnifying Party of such amounts, the Indemnifying Party shall succeed to
the rights of such Indemnified Party, to the extent not waived in settlement,
against the third party who made such third party Claim.

         11.5     No Waiver. The closing of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver by any party of its rights to
indemnification hereunder, regardless of whether the party seeking
indemnification has knowledge of the breach, violation or failure of condition
constituting the basis of the Claim at or before the closing, and regardless of
whether such breach, violation or failure is deemed to be "material".

         11.6.    Survival of Indemnification. The indemnification obligations
of the parties contained in this ARTICLE 11 shall survive the date of this
Agreement and the Closing Date for a period of eighteen (18) months following
the Closing Date, except that the indemnification obligations relating to the
representations and warranties regarding tax obligations shall survive until
one (1) year after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for
such tax obligations.
