17
<PAGE>
B. INDEMNIFICATION BY COMPANY AND SHAREHOLDERS. The Company and
Shareholders, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless
`CLYC', and shall reimburse `CLYC' for any loss, liability, claim, damage,
expense (including, but not limited to, costs of investigation and defense
and reasonable attorneys' fees) or diminution of value (collectively
"Damages") arising from or in connection with, (a) any inaccuracy in any of
the representations and warranties of the Company or Shareholders in this
Agreement, or any actions, omissions or state of facts inconsistent with
any such representation or warranty, (b) any failure by the Company or
Shareholders to perform or comply with any agreement in this Agreement, (c)
any claim by any person for brokerage or finder's fees or commissions or
similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding alleged to have
been made by any such person with the Company or any Shareholder (or any
person acting on their behalf) in connection with any of the contemplated
transactions.
C. INDEMNIFICATION BY `CLYC'. `CLYC' shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Company and Shareholders, and shall reimburse the Company and Shareholders
for, any Damages arising from or in connection with (a) any inaccuracy in
any of the representations and warranties of `CLYC' in this Agreement, or
any actions, omissions or state of facts inconsistent with any such
representation or warranty, (b) any failure by `CLYC' to perform or comply
with any agreement in this Agreement, or (c) any claim by any person for
brokerage or finder's fees or commissions or similar payments based upon
any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by such person
with `CLYC' (or any person acting on its behalf) in connection with any of
the contemplated transactions without having been discussed by the Company.
D. PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified
party of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying
party under such section, give notice to the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party
shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified
party except to the extent the indemnifying party demonstrates that the
defense of such action is prejudiced thereby. In case any such action shall
be brought against an indemnified party and it shall give notice to the
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall
wish, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such
indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party under such section for any fees of other counsel or any
other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs
of investigation. If an indemnifying party assumes the defense of such an
action, (a) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the
indemnifying party without the indemnified party's consent, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld unless (i) there is no finding or admission of any
violation of law or any violation of the rights of any person and no effect
18
<PAGE>
on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party and (b)
the indemnifying party shall have no liability with respect to any
compromise or settlement thereof effected without its consent, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld. If notice is given to an indemnifying party
of the commencement of any action and it does not, within ten (10) days
after indemnified party's notice is given, give notice to the indemnified
party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party
shall be bound by any determination made in such action or any compromise
or settlement thereof effected by the indemnified party. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there
is a reasonable probability that an action may adversely affect it other
than as a result of monetary damages, such indemnified party may, by notice
to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise
or settle such action, but the indemnifying party shall not be bound by any
determination of an action so defended or any compromise or settlement
thereof effected without its consent, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld.
E. AFTER-TAX BASIS. In determining the Damages suffered by any person, the
amount thereof shall be reduced by any tax benefit realized by such person
as a result of the incidence of such Damages. Any payment required by this
Paragraph 11 (for indemnification or otherwise) in respect of the Damages
suffered by any person shall be in an amount that after deducting any tax
cost incurred by the person receiving that payment equal the amount
required to be paid as determined under the applicable provisions (other
than this sentence) of this Paragraph 11. The tax benefit realized by a
person by reason of any payment or other matter shall be the amount by
which (a) the aggregate federal and state income and franchise taxes that
would have been, but for such payment or other matter, payable by such
person for the fiscal year, if any, in which such payment or other matter
is taken into account ("but-for tax") exceeds (b) the aggregate federal and
state income and franchise taxes actually payable by such person for such
fiscal year ("actual tax") and the tax cost of any payment shall be the
amount by which the actual tax exceeds but-for tax.
f. Notwithstanding anything above contained to the contrary in Paragraph
11, (i) none of the provisions of this Paragraph 11 shall apply to any
liability (whether by `CLYC' to one or more of the Shareholders or by one
or more the Shareholders to `CLYC') arising out of or by virtue of the
Provisions of Paragraph 12 below or any violation of the provisions of
Paragraph 12, and (ii) the provisions of said Paragraph 12 shall survive
the Closing Date.

12. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION. Each of the Shareholders acknowledges his/her
understanding that the shares of CLYC's Common Stock to be delivered to the
Shareholders pursuant to this Agreement will not be registered pursuant to the
1933 Act and each of the Shareholders further represents to and agrees with
`CLYC' as follows:
a. He/she is acquiring the shares of CLYC's Common Stock pursuant to this
Agreement for his/her own private personal investment account and with no
present intention of reselling or distributing such shares or any portion
thereof to others.
b. They fully comprehend that in connection with the issuance of shares of
CLYC's Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, `CLYC' is relying to a
material degree on the representations, warranties and covenants contained

see fit in full reliance hereon.
c. He/she agrees that none of such shares will be transferred or
distributed unless (i) they are covered by an effective Registration
Statement prepared in accordance with the 1933 Act and are distributed in a
manner complying with the 1933 Act and with the Rules and Regulations
promulgated thereunder; or (ii) they may be transferred in accordance with
Rule 144 of the Rules and Regulations pursuant to the 1933 Act (or such
similar Rule as may be applicable to such shares at the time of transfer)
so long as such transfer strictly complies with said Rule 144 and with such
procedures as `CLYC' may reasonably establish in connection therewith; or
(iii) there is first delivered to `CLYC' the written legal opinion of legal
counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to CLYC's legal
counsel or a "no action letter" from SEC indicating that any of the
provisions of the 1933 Act and the Rules and Regulations promulgated
thereunder. In the event such legal opinion is based upon the exemption now
contained in Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act, the person acquiring shares or
some portion thereof shall execute and deliver to `CLYC' a letter agreement
complying with the 1933 Act and the Rules and Regulations promulgated
thereunder.
d. He/she hereby agrees that the certificate(s) representing such shares
may bear a legend, as set forth below, setting forth the restrictions upon
transfer which are contained in the foregoing subparagraph (c) and that
`CLYC' may deliver to its transfer agents a "stop transfer order" directing
the transfer agents not to effect any transfer of such shares without
having received the permission of `CLYC' and evidence of compliance with
applicable provisions of the 1933 Act and the terms of this Agreement.
20
<PAGE>
The shares represented by this certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") and
are "restricted securities" as that term is defined in Rule
144 under the Act. The shares may not be offered for sale,
sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an exemption
from registration under the Act, the availability of which is
to be established to the satisfaction of `CLYC'.
e. He/she hereby agrees that to indemnify `CLYC' against and hold it
harmless from all losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees) which shall arise as a result of a sale or
distribution by him/her of such shares or any portion thereof in violation
of the 1933 Act or the terms of this Agreement.
13. FURTHER ASSURANCES.
a. At the request of `CLYC', and without further consideration, the Company
and Shareholders will execute and deliver such additional instruments of
transfer and will take such other action as `CLYC' reasonably may request
in order more effectively to transfer to `CLYC' full ownership and control
of the Company.
b. At the request of one or more of the Shareholders, and without further
consideration, `CLYC' will execute and deliver such additional instruments
and will take such other actions as Shareholders may reasonably request in

negotiation and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its

Director.

D. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The parties acknowledge that the subject matter of
this Agreement (i.e., the business and assets of the Company) is unique and
that no adequate remedy of law would be available for breach of this
Agreement. Accordingly, each party agrees that the other parties will be
entitled to an appropriate decree of specific performance or other
equitable remedies to enforce this Agreement (without any bond or other
security being required) and each party waives the defense in any action or
proceeding brought to enforce this Agreement that there exists an adequate

this agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to convert upon any
person, other than the parties hereto; any rights or remedies under or by
reason of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein to

any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver
or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict
adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. Any waiver must
be in writing.
I. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, the same shall not affect any other provisions of
this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provisions had never been contained herein.
J. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed and delivered this
Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
