("Jaymark") and INTERCELL CORPORATION, a Colorado corporation ("INTERCELL") and
California Tube Laboratory, Inc., a California corporation ("CTL"). Certain
other capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A attached

RECITALS
WHEREAS, INTERCELL owns one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and
outstanding shares of the capital stock of CTL (the "CTL Stock").
WHEREAS, Jaymark wishes to acquire and INTERCELL wishes to sell all of the
CTL Stock in exchange for cash (the "Acquisition") in accordance with the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to set forth in this Agreement certain
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by each to the other
as an inducement to the consummation of the Acquisition.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in reliance on the foregoing recitals and in and for the
consideration and mutual covenants set forth herein and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:
1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE CTL STOCK.
1.1 DEFINITIONS. The definitions set forth in Exhibit A attached
hereto shall apply throughout this Agreement.
1.2 PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE CTL STOCK. Upon the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing INTERCELL shall
sell, transfer and deliver to Jaymark the CTL Stock and Jaymark will pay to
INTERCELL the Consideration in the manner described in Section 1.3 below.
1.3 CONSIDERATION FOR THE CTL STOCK. Upon the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing Jaymark shall deliver
to (i) INTERCELL One Million Four Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,450,000) in
cash to be adjusted by the amount, if any, equal to the Adjustment Payment in
accordance with Section 1.4 of this Agreement (such net amount being the
"Consideration") and (ii) Chicago Title Company as escrow agent, Two Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($200,000) in cash (as more fully discussed in Section
11.8.(b)). In addition to the foregoing, on January 30, 1998 Jaymark paid to
INTERCELL the sum of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) cash as an advance payment
as set forth in that certain side letter agreement and security agreement
attached hereto as Exhibit B
2
<PAGE>
(the "Advance Payment") and INTERCELL hereby acknowledges receipt of the Advance
Payment. Further, at the Closing, Jaymark will deliver to INTERCELL an Jaymark's
unsecured corporate promissory note in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the "Promissory
Note") payable upon the satisfaction of certain specified conditions relating to
the investigation and remediation of certain hazardous substances contamination
affecting the Santa Cruz Site, as more fully described in Section 11.8(a) and in
the Environmental Remediation and Indemnification Agreement attached hereto as
Exhibit C. Collectively (i), (ii), the Advance Payment and the Promissory Note
shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Purchase Price."
1.4 PURCHASE PRICE ADJUSTMENT, PROCEDURE AND ADJUSTMENT PAYMENT.
(a) The purchase price adjustment (which may be a positive or negative
number) will be equal to the difference, if any, between (i) total assets
($3,161,442) minus long term receivable (parent) ($679,399) minus total
liabilities ($425,141) or $2,056,902, as shown on the unaudited balance sheet of
CTL as of October 26, 1997 (the "October 26, 1997 Balance Sheet"), as previously
provided to Jaymark, and (ii) total assets minus $679,399 minus total
liabilities (the "Net Worth"), as shown on the Closing Balance Sheet (the
"Purchase Price Adjustment").
(b) INTERCELL will prepare and will cause KPMG Peat Marwick,
INTERCELL's certified public accountants, to prepare a balance sheet of CTL as
of the Closing Date (the "Closing Balance Sheet") prepared in a manner
consistent with GAAP, excluding adjustments for purchase accounting and
including any and all previously unrecorded liabilities existing as of the
Closing Date, and the related statement of income and cash flow, together with
the work papers related thereto and their report thereon (including the Closing
Balance Sheet, the "Closing Financial Statements"). INTERCELL will deliver the
Closing Financial Statements to Jaymark within forty five days after the Closing
Date. If within thirty days following delivery of the Closing Financial
Statements, Jaymark has not given INTERCELL notice of its objection to the
Closing Balance Sheet (such notice must contain a statement in reasonable detail
of the basis of the Jaymark's objection), then the Net Worth will be used in
computing the Purchase Price Adjustment, if any. If Jaymark gives such notice of
objection, and the parties are unable to resolve all disputes, then the issues
in dispute will be submitted to Price Waterhouse LLP, certified public
accountants (the "Accountants"), for resolution. If issues in dispute are
submitted to the Accountants for resolution, (i) INTERCELL and Jaymark will each
furnish to the Accountants such work papers and other documents and information
relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may request and are
reasonably available to that party, and will be afforded the opportunity to
present to the Accountants any material relating to the determination and to
discuss the determination with the Accountants; (ii) the determination by the
Accountants, as set forth in a notice delivered to INTERCELL and Jaymark by the
Accountants, will be binding and conclusive on the parties; and (iii) INTERCELL
and Jaymark will each bear 50% of the fees of the Accountants for such
determination.
(c) On the tenth business day following the final determination of the
Purchase Price Adjustment the Adjustment Payment will be made, if necessary, in
cash in an amount determined as follows: (i) If the Purchase Price Adjustment is
a positive number, then INTERCELL will deliver to Jaymark an Adjustment Payment
equal to the Purchase Price
3
<PAGE>
Adjustment; (ii) If the Purchase Price Adjustment is a negative number (i.e. the
Net Worth is greater than $2,056,902) between zero and -$143,098, then no
Adjustment Payment will be made; and (iii) If the Purchase Price Adjustment is a
negative number less than -$143,098, then Jaymark will deliver to INTERCELL an
Adjustment Payment equal to the Purchase Price Adjustment (expressed as a
positive number) minus $143,098 (any such payment to be made in accordance with
this Section 1.4(c) shall herein be referred to as an "Adjustment Payment"). For
example, if at the Closing Date the Net Worth equals: (i) $2,000,000, then
INTERCELL will pay Jaymark an Adjustment Payment equal to $56,902 ($2,056,902 -
$2,000,000 = $56,902); (ii) $2,100,000, then no Adjustment Payment will be made
because $2,056,902 -$2,100,000 = -$43,098 (which is between 0 and $143,000); and
(iii) $2,400,000, then Jaymark will pay INTERCELL an Adjustment Payment equal to
$200,000 ($2,056,902 - $2,400,000 = -$343,098, and $343,098 - $143,098 =
$200,000).
1.5 ESCROW AGREEMENT. On the Closing Date, Jaymark will deposit into
the Indemnity Escrow Fund the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000).
The amount on deposit in the Indemnity Escrow Fund shall be held as collateral
for INTERCELL's indemnification obligations under Article 11 (as more fully
described in Section 11.8).
1.6 THE CLOSING. Subject to termination of this Agreement according
to the provisions set forth in Article 9 below, the closing of the transactions
contemplated in this Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place at the offices
of Gray Cary Ware & Freidenrich, a Professional Corporation, 4365 Executive
Drive, San Diego, California 92121, as soon as possible upon the satisfaction or
waiver of all conditions set forth in Article 7 and Article 8 hereof (the
"Closing Date"), or such other time and place as is mutually agreeable to the
parties.

Schedule, CTL owns all right, title and interest in and to all of the

rights necessary for Jaymark to permit CTL to continue to conduct CTL's business
in the same manner after the Closing Date as CTL had conducted its business
prior to the Closing Date.
(c) No claims have been asserted against CTL or INTERCELL (and
INTERCELL is not aware of any claims that are likely to be asserted against CTL
or which have been asserted against others) by any Person challenging CTL's use
or distribution of any patents, Trademarks, trade names, copyrights, trade
secrets, software, technology, know-how or processes utilized by CTL or
challenging or questioning the validity of, effectiveness of, or full
performance by CTL of its obligations under any license or agreement relating
thereto.
(d) To INTERCELL's knowledge after reasonable investigation,
none of the CTL Products or the use of the Intellectual Property by CTL in the
conduct of CTL's business infringes on the rights of, constitutes
misappropriation of, or involves unfair competition with respect to, any
proprietary information or intangible or Intellectual Property right of any
third Person or Entity, including without limitation any patent, trade secret,
copyright, trademark, trade name or mask works.
(e) All designs, drawings, specifications, documentation, flow
charts and diagrams incorporating, embodying or reflecting any of the CTL
Products at any stage of their development (collectively, the "CTL Components")
were written, developed and created solely and exclusively by employees of CTL
without the assistance of any third party, or were created by third parties who

complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan so as to incur
withdrawal liability as defined in Section 4201 of ERISA or contingent
withdrawal liability, under Section 4204 of ERISA for which CTL would be liable
or potentially liable. No withdrawal liability would result under Section 4201
of ERISA if CTL or an ERISA Affiliate were to withdraw in a complete withdrawal
(as defined in Section 4203 of ERISA) on the Closing Date from each
Multiemployer Plan in which CTL or the ERISA Affiliate participates.

4975 of the Code, which have been committed; (ii) no pending or to INTERCELL's
knowledge threatened suits, claims, investigations or proceedings against an
Employee Plan by an employee or former employee of CTL (other than routine
claims for benefits); (iii) no reportable events under Section 4043(c) of ERISA;
and (iv) no claims or other matters currently pending, nor are there any

provided for. Each Employee Plan which is a "group health plan" (as defined in
the Code and ERISA) is and has been operated in material compliance with the
requirements of part 6 of Subtitle B of Title 1 of ERISA and Section 4980B of
the Code with respect to former employees of CTL. Each Employee Plan which is a
"group health plan" is being operated in material compliance with the
requirements of Title IV of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability
Act of 1996 and Section 4980D of the Code. Neither CTL nor any ERISA Affiliate

for annual premiums that have been paid when due. CTL and its ERISA Affiliates
have made all contributions required under Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412
of the Code with respect to all Employee Plans. CTL and its ERISA Affiliates
have made all contributions required during the preceding five plan years under
Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code when due with respect to all
Employee Plans.
(i) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
will not result in any increase in the compensation or benefits payable by CTL
or otherwise payable to any employee of CTL or the acceleration of the time of
payment or vesting of any such compensation or benefits. The execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement will not result in any parachute payments
within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code or the payment of any severance
by CTL.
(j) All Employee Plans intended to be a Qualified Plan have
received a favorable determination letter that considers amendments required by
the Tax Reform Act of 1986 from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that
such plans so qualify (and such letter has not been revoked), or an application
for such a letter has been applied for within the retroactive amendment period
for such plan, and such application is pending and no event has occurred and no
condition exists as of the Closing Date which would reasonably be expected to
11
<PAGE>
result in the loss of Qualified Plan status or the imposition of any Liability,
penalty or Tax on CTL under ERISA or the Code with respect to said Qualified
Plans and which cannot be cured retroactively without any Liability (other than
compliance with the amendment or modification referred to in this sentence) by
an amendment or modification to the Qualified Plan document.

and several liability provisions of the Code of Title IV or ERISA as the result

Entity, nor is any such audit in process, pending or threatened (either in
writing or verbally, formally or informally). No deficiencies exist or have been
asserted (either in writing or verbally, formally or informally) or are expected
to be asserted with respect to Taxes of CTL (or INTERCELL with respect to or
including the taxable income or activities of CTL). Except as set forth in
Section 2.19(c) of the CTL Disclosure Schedule, CTL (or INTERCELL with respect

extension of time within which to file any Tax Return.
(g) CTL (or INTERCELL with respect to or including the taxable
income or activities of CTL) has not made any payments, is not obligated to make
any payments, and is not a party to any agreement that under any circumstances
could obligate CTL (or INTERCELL with respect to or including the taxable income
or activities of CTL) to make any payments with respect to employees or
independent contractors of CTL that will not be deductible by Jaymark after the
Closing Date under Code Section 280G.

limitation, any warranties and (d) a complete list of CTL expenses, as incurred,
associated with warranties, services, returns, defects or similar items with
respect to the CTL Products from October 1, 1996 to September 30, 1997. All
sales of, and services relating to, CTL Products have been, or are being, made
pursuant to the form of warranty set forth
18
<PAGE>
in Section 2.20 of the CTL Disclosure Schedule, or the terms of a contract and
no other warranty, express or implied, has been made or extended by CTL with
respect to the CTL Products, or the services provided by CTL in relation
thereto. CTL has not granted to any Person the right to repair, maintain,
service or support any of the CTL Products. Except as set forth on Section 2.20
of the Disclosure Schedule, no agreement for the sale, license, service, support
or maintenance of the CTL Products obligates CTL to provide any change in
functionality or other alternations in the performance of the CTL Products or to
provide new products or technology.
2.21 ORDERS, COMMITMENTS AND RETURNS. All accepted and unfilled
orders entered into by CTL for the sale, license, or lease or other disposition
by CTL of CTL Products, and all agreements, contracts, or commitments for the
purchase of supplies by CTL, were made in the ordinary course of business. No
outstanding purchase or outstanding lease commitment of CTL is in excess of the
normal, ordinary and usual requirements of its business or was made at a price
(on both a per unit and aggregate basis) materially in excess of the current
market price at the time made, or to the knowledge of INTERCELL, contains terms
and conditions materially more onerous to CTL than those usual and customary in
the industry.
2.22 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. CTL has obtained all Permits required
under Environmental Laws to conduct its business (collectively, "Licenses"), and
all such Licenses are current, valid and in good standing, and copies of all
such Licenses have been provided to Jaymark. CTL is conducting and at all times
has conducted its business in full compliance with Environmental Laws and
Licenses, including without limitation giving required notifications of any
Release of Hazardous Materials. Except as set forth in Section 2.11(e) of the
CTL Disclosure Schedule, no notice or other filing, or consent or approval is
required under any Environmental Laws in connection with or as a result of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. With respect to CTL's business and
any Facility, no civil, criminal or administrative actions, proceedings,
directives, inquiries, or investigations are pending, or to the knowledge of
INTERCELL threatened, by any Governmental Entity or Person regarding any
alleged non-compliance with Environmental Laws, nor does INTERCELL have any
basis to expect the institution or receipt of any such actions, proceedings,
directives, inquiries or investigations. No Governmental Entity or Person has,
currently or in the past, charged or alleged or, to the knowledge of INTERCELL
threatened to charge or allege, that Hazardous Materials have been Handled
improperly or in violation of Environmental Laws or in such a manner as to harm
or threaten to harm human health, ecology, or the environment, in connection
with CTL's business or any Facility. Neither CTL nor INTERCELL have received
any notice with respect to any Facility, and neither is aware of the issuance,
at any time, to any Person of any notice with respect to any Facility, alleging
that a Facility has been listed or is proposed to be listed on any list,
registry or inventory maintained by any Governmental Entity of sites where a
Release of Hazardous Materials has occurred or is suspected of having occurred,
and neither CTL nor INTERCELL has received any notice that they have been
identified as potentially responsible parties under any Environmental Laws with
respect to any Facility. There are no liens or other Encumbrances in effect
under any Environmental Laws with respect to any Facility or any other asset or
real property owned, operated, leased or controlled in connection with CTL's
business. Other than as set forth and described in Section 2.22 of the CTL
Disclosure Schedule, no Release of Hazardous Materials has occurred at any time
in connection with CTL's business or any Facility, except in compliance with
Environmental Laws and Licenses. To INTERCELL's knowledge after reasonable
investigation (except as described in Section 2.22 of the CTL
19
<PAGE>
Disclosure Schedule), there are no conditions existing at any Facility which
require any remedial action, removal action, corrective action, closure action,
or other environmental response action under Environmental Laws or Licenses.
There are not currently, nor are there any plans to install, nor have there been
in the past, at any Facility any underground storage tanks, vaults,
containments, impoundments or other underground structures or equipment, that
are used, will be used, or were used, or that are or were intended to be used,
for Handling of Hazardous Materials. There is no asbestos or asbestos-containing
material in, on or at any real property or Facility or equipment owned, leased
or operated in connection with CTL's business. No equipment or improvements used
in CTL's business presently require, or to the knowledge of INTERCELL may
require, any expenditure of funds or any removal, closure, updating,
modification or replacement to comply with Environmental Laws and Licenses. To
the knowledge of INTERCELL, no Release of Hazardous Materials has migrated to,
or threatens to migrate to, the soil, surface water, or groundwater on, under or
adjacent to any Facility. With respect to CTL's business and to the knowledge of
INTERCELL, there are no conditions existing at any site to which CTL has sent
Hazardous Materials for transportation, transfer, recycling, treatment, storage,
or disposal, which require any investigation, remedial action, removal action,
corrective action, or other environmental response action pursuant to
Environmental Laws, and no administrative actions, proceedings, directives,
inquiries or investigations are pending, or to the knowledge of INTERCELL,
threatened, with respect to any such site. No employee of CTL and no other
Person has asserted or, to the knowledge of INTERCELL threatened to assert,
currently or in the past, a demand or claim pertaining to CTL's business or any
Facility, based upon or relating to alleged damage to health caused by any
Hazardous Material used in connection with the business or present at any
Facility. INTERCELL has delivered or otherwise made available for inspection to
Jaymark or its agents true, complete and correct copies of any reports, studies,
assessments, analyses, evaluations, test or monitoring results possessed or
available to INTERCELL pertaining to any Release of any Hazardous Materials in,
on, beneath or adjacent to any Facility.
2.23 CORPORATE DOCUMENTS. INTERCELL has made available to Jaymark
for Jaymark's examination: (a) copies of CTL's articles of incorporation and
bylaws, (b) CTL's minute book containing all records of all proceedings,
consents, actions, and meetings of the stockholders, the board of directors and
any committees thereof, (c) all material Permits, orders, and consents issued by
any regulatory agency with respect to CTL or any of CTL's securities, and all
applications for such Permits, orders, and consents and (d) CTL's stock transfer
books setting forth all transfers of any of its capital stock. The corporate
minute books, stock certificate books, stock registers and other corporate
records of CTL are complete and accurate in all material respects, and the

of the Persons purporting to have signed the same. All actions reflected in
such books and records were duly and validly taken in compliance in all material
respects with the laws of the applicable jurisdiction.
2.24 BROKERS. Except as set forth in Section 2.24 of the CTL

Transaction Documents and certificates delivered by the parties in connection
with this Agreement) shall survive (and not be affected in any respect by) the

which any party may receive, until the end of the Indemnification Period,
whereupon all such representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall
expire and terminate and shall be of no further force or effect, except as
follows: (i) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 2.9, 2.19
and 2.22 shall survive the Closing for the period of the applicable statute of
limitations plus any extensions or waivers granted or imposed with respect
thereto or, if no statute of limitations is applicable, indefinitely; (ii) the

(iii) the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements relating to any
Deficiency (as defined in Section 11.4) of which the Indemnifying Party has
received notice from the other party prior to the expiration of the
Indemnification Period (except that notice relative to claims made pursuant to
the above referenced Sections 2.9, 2.19 and 2.22 need only be made prior to the
expiration of such representations and warranties as provided above), shall
survive until the existence of such Deficiency has been finally established and
the Deficiency is resolved as provided below. Provided, however, that the
termination
31
<PAGE>
hereunder of any of the above representations and warranties shall not terminate
or limit in any manner whatsoever any rights which INTERCELL or Jaymark may have
pursuant to this Article 11 for Deficiencies arising out of or resulting from
fraud or knowing and intentional misrepresentation relating to such
representations and warranties.
11.2 BASIC PROVISION.
(a) INTERCELL (sometimes hereinafter an "Indemnifying Party")
hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Jaymark, its directors, officers,
employees and all Persons which directly or indirectly, through one or more
intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with
Jaymark, and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the "Jaymark
Indemnitees") from, against and in respect of, and to reimburse Jaymark
Indemnitees for, the amount of any and all Deficiencies (as defined in Section
11.4).
(b) Jaymark (sometimes hereinafter an "Indemnifying Party")
hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless INTERCELL and its directors,
officers, employees and all Persons which directly or indirectly, through one or
more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control
with INTERCELL, and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the
"INTERCELL Indemnitees") from, against and in respect of, and to reimburse the
INTERCELL Indemnitees for, the amount of any and all Deficiencies (as defined in
Section 11.4)
(c) If, subsequent to the Closing, CTL suffers, incurs or
otherwise becomes subject to any Deficiencies as a result of or in connection
with any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation set
forth in this Agreement, then Jaymark shall also be deemed, by virtue of its
ownership of the stock of CTL, to have incurred Deficiencies as a result of and
in connection with such breach.
11.3 ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION. During the period of the
applicable statute of limitations plus any extensions granted with respect
thereto, or, if no statute of limitations is applicable, indefinitely, INTERCELL
and its successors and assigns agree to indemnify, defend, reimburse and hold
harmless Jaymark and its Affiliates and its and their respective stockholders,

representatives, successors and permitted assigns from and against any and all

without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside legal
counsel, accountants and consultants and the reasonable charges of in-house
legal counsel, accountants, and other personnel), and all foreseeable and
unforeseeable consequential damages (including, without limitation, costs of any
and all investigations, costs of clean-up, removal, repair, remediation,
detoxification, closure, site restoration, or any other remedial acts that are
required to be performed on or with respect to any Facility) that are imposed by
any Environmental Laws.

32
<PAGE>
mean any and all Losses, damages, liabilities and claims sustained by the
Jaymark Indemnitees and arising out of, based upon or resulting from:

on the part of INTERCELL contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement;
(ii) Any error contained in any written statement, report,

kind, related or incident to any of the foregoing (including, without
limitation, any and all Legal Expenses);

Section 11.4, INTERCELL and Jaymark agree that all liabilities incurred by

Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be Deficiencies.

<PAGE>
11.5 PROCEDURES FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF DEFICIENCIES.
(a) In the event that any claim shall be asserted by any third
party against the Jaymark Indemnitees or INTERCELL Indemnitees (Jaymark
Indemnitees or INTERCELL Indemnitees, as the case may be, shall hereinafter be
referred to as the "Indemnitees"), or any claim is asserted falling within the
scope of Section 11.3 above, which, if sustained, would result in a Deficiency,
then the Indemnitees, within a reasonable time after learning of such claim,
shall notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim, and shall extend to the
Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to defend against such claim, at the
Indemnifying Party's sole expense and through legal counsel acceptable to the
Indemnitees, provided that the Indemnifying Party proceeds in good faith,
expeditiously and diligently. The Indemnitees shall, at their option and
expense, have the right to participate in any defense undertaken by the
Indemnifying Party with legal counsel of their own selection. No settlement or
compromise of any claim which may result in a Deficiency may be made by the
Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnitees unless:
(i) prior to such settlement or compromise the Indemnifying Party acknowledges
in writing its obligation to pay in full the amount of the settlement or
compromise and all associated expenses; and (ii) the Indemnitees are furnished
with security reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitees that the Indemnifying
Party will in fact pay such amount and expenses. No settlement or compromise of
any claim which acknowledges any liability for a violation of law, or purports
to impose any non-monetary obligation on the indemnified party may be entered
into without such party's consent.
(b) In the event that the Indemnitees assert the existence of any
Deficiency against the Indemnifying Party, they shall give written notice to the
Indemnifying Party of the nature and amount of the Deficiency asserted. If
within thirty (30) days after the giving of the written notice by the
Indemnitees the Indemnifying Party does not provide written notice to the
Indemnitees that the Indemnifying Party intends to contest the assertion by the
Indemnitees (such notice by the Indemnifying Party being hereinafter referred to
as the "Contest Notice"), such assertion of the Indemnitees shall be deemed
accepted and the amount of the Deficiency shall be deemed established. In the
event, however, that a Contest Notice is given to the Indemnitees within said
30-day period, then the contested assertion of a Deficiency shall be settled by
arbitration to be held in San Diego, California, in accordance with the
Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association then existing. The
determination of the arbitrator shall be delivered in writing to the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitees and shall be final, binding and
conclusive upon all of the parties hereto, and the amount of the Deficiency, if
any, determined to exist, shall be deemed established.
(c) The Indemnitees and the Indemnifying Party may agree in
writing, at any time, as to the existence and amount of a Deficiency, and, upon
the execution of such agreement such Deficiency shall be deemed established.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section
11.5, the failure to promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of any third party
claim or the alleged existence of a Deficiency will not relieve the Indemnifying
Party of any liability it may have to any Indemnitee, except to the extent that
the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it has been prejudiced by the
Indemnitee's failure to timely give such notice.
34
<PAGE>
11.6 PAYMENT OF DEFICIENCIES.
(a) Notwithstanding the establishment of a Deficiency in
accordance with Section 11.5, after the Closing INTERCELL shall not be liable to
the Jaymark Indemnitees for the first Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) of
aggregate Deficiencies except to the extent such aggregate Deficiencies exceed
$10,000 at which point indemnification shall then be made by INTERCELL for the
full amount of such Deficiencies.
(b) The Indemnifying Party hereby agrees to pay the amount of
established Deficiencies within thirty (30) days after the establishment
thereof. The amount of established Deficiencies shall be paid in cash. Any
amounts not paid by the Indemnifying Party when due under this Section shall
bear interest from and after the due date thereof until the date paid at a rate
equal to the lesser of: (i) fifteen percent (15%) per annum; or (ii) the highest
legal rate permitted by applicable law. At the option of the Indemnitees, the
Indemnitees may offset any Deficiency established in accordance with this
Agreement or any portion thereof that has not been paid by the Indemnifying
Party to the Indemnitees against any obligation the Indemnitees, or any of them,
may have to the Indemnifying Party.
11.7 LEGAL EXPENSES. As used in this Article 11, the term "Legal
Expenses" shall mean any and all reasonable fees (whether of attorneys,
accountants or other professionals), costs and expenses of any kind reasonably
incurred by any Indemnitees and its counsel in investigating, preparing for,
defending against, or providing evidence, producing documents or taking other
action with respect to any threatened or asserted claim.
11.8 PAYMENT OF PROMISSORY NOTE AND INDEMNITY ESCROW FUND.
(a) On the Closing Date, Jaymark shall deliver its unsecured
corporate promissory note in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000) to INTERCELL Corporation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.
The Promissory Note is payable to INTERCELL upon its satisfaction, on or before
the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, of all of the following conditions:
(i) INTERCELL has delivered to Jaymark a complete and accurate copy of a "no
further action" letter issued by the Santa Cruz County Environmental Health
Department (or other applicable state regulatory agency) relating to the Santa
Cruz Site; (ii) there is no claim, investigation, suit, action or proceeding
pending or threatened in writing against INTERCELL, CTL, Jaymark or the Santa
Cruz Site relating to the Contamination; and (iii) all invoices, bills and costs
of work performed, whether investigatory or remedial, have been paid in full,
and no such work remains uninvoiced and/or unpaid relating to the Contamination.
The parties acknowledge and agree that the environmental indemnification
obligations of INTERCELL pursuant to the Environmental Remediation and
Indemnification Agreement are in addition to and in no way should be limited by
any of the environmental indemnity provisions contained in this Agreement. This
Section 11.8(a) is not intended to establish a ceiling or maximum amount that
INTERCELL shall indemnify Jaymark Indemnitees.
(b) At Closing, Jaymark shall deliver, in cash, a portion of the
Purchase Price in the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) to
Chicago Title Company as escrow agent (the "Indemnity Escrow Agent"), such
deposit to constitute the "Indemnity Escrow Fund" which shall be governed by the
terms set forth herein and in the form
35
<PAGE>
Indemnity Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit G (the "Indemnity Escrow
Agreement"). The Indemnity Escrow fund will serve as collateral for the
indemnification obligations of and the payment of Deficiencies by INTERCELL as
set forth in this Article 11. Withdrawal of such funds shall be subject to
restrictions consistent with this Article 11 and the terms of the Indemnity
Escrow Agreement. Fifty percent (50%) of such funds that are not then subject to
claims regarding Deficiencies shall be released to INTERCELL one (1) year after
the Closing Date, and the remainder of such funds not then subject to claims
regarding Deficiencies shall be released to INTERCELL on the second anniversary
of the Closing; provided, however, that any funds which are subject to claims
regarding Deficiencies remaining in such account upon the second (2nd)
anniversary of the Closing shall be released to INTERCELL only upon the
resolution of such Deficiencies. This Section 11.8(b) is not intended to
establish a ceiling or maximum amount that INTERCELL shall indemnify Jaymark
Indemnitees pursuant to this Article 11.
12. MISCELLANEOUS.
12.1 GOVERNING LAW. It is the intention of the parties hereto that
the internal laws of the State of California (irrespective of its choice of law

terms, and the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the
parties hereto.
12.2 BINDING UPON SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to, and unless
otherwise provided in, this Agreement, each and all of the covenants, terms,
provisions, and agreements contained herein shall be binding upon, and inure to
the benefit of, the permitted successors, executors, heirs, Representatives,
administrators and assigns of the parties hereto provided that no party hereto
shall assign this Agreement to any such Entity without the prior written consent
of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
12.3 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement, or the
application thereof, shall for any reason and to any extent be invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and application of such provision
to other Persons or circumstances shall be interpreted so as best to reasonably
effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace
such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and
enforceable provision which will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic,
business and other purposes of the void or unenforceable provision.
12.4 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, the exhibits hereto, the
documents referenced herein, and the exhibits thereto, constitute the entire
understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements
or understandings, inducements or conditions, express or implied, written or
oral, between the parties with respect hereto and thereto.
12.5 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original as against any party whose

In the event that the acquisition of CTL by Jaymark is, for any reason, not

CTL as evidenced by the Security Agreement attached as Attachment 1.
If you agree with these conditions and procedures, please execute this letter in

ATTACHMENT 1
SECURITY AGREEMENT
This Security Agreement ("Agreement") is made as of January 30, 1998, by
and between JAYMARK, INC., a Delaware corporation, ("Creditor") and INTERCELL
CORPORATION, a Colorado corporation, ("Debtor").
1. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST. To secure the payment and performance
-----------------------------
by Debtor of the Obligations, as hereinafter defined, Debtor hereby grants to
Creditor a security interest in and to all Collateral, as hereinafter defined.
2. OBLIGATIONS SECURED. The security interest herein granted by Debtor to
-------------------
Creditor secures the re-payment by Debtor to Creditor of the payment made by
Creditor to Debtor of $50,000, as an advance payment in connection with
Jaymark's purchase from Debtor of one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of California Tube Laboratory, Inc. ("CTL"), a wholly
owned subsidiary of Debtor, the terms and conditions of which are more fully
described in that certain Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of February 6, 1998
by and among Creditor, Debtor, and CTL (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"). This
advance payment is made in accordance with the terms of the Side Letter
Agreement dated January 30, 1998 ("Side Letter Agreement").
3. COLLATERAL. The term "Collateral" collectively means all of CTL's
----------
Accounts Receivable and Inventory, including, but not limited to: raw materials,
brazing alloys, work-in-process, and finished goods, together with any and all
proceeds, substitutions, additions, assertions, replacements, increases and
products of the foregoing including all cash and non-cash proceeds.
4. BUSINESS PURPOSE. Debtor represents and warrants that the Collateral
----------------
is not used for personal, family or household purposes. The Collateral may not
be used for any of such purposes.
5. PROTECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST. Creditor may, at Debtor's sole cost,
-------------------------------
file a copy of this Agreement in any public office deemed necessary by Creditor
to perfect or continue Creditor's security interest in the Collateral.
6. CUSTODY AND PRESERVATION OF THE COLLATERAL. Creditor will be deemed to
------------------------------------------
have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral
in its possession (even if Creditor fails to sell or convert Collateral which is
falling in market value). The failure of Creditor to preserve or protect any
rights with respect to any of the Collateral against other parties may not be
deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care in the custody of preservation of
such Collateral.
7. NO RELEASE OR IMPAIRMENT OF COLLATERAL. Creditor's security interest
--------------------------------------
hereunder shall continue unimpaired notwithstanding that Creditor take or
release other security, release any person primarily or secondarily liable for
any of the Obligations, grants or allows extensions, renewals, modifications,
rearrangements, restructures, replacements or refinancings thereof, whether or
not the same involve modifications to interest rates or other payment terms
thereof, or indulgences with respect to the Obligations.
8. DEALING WITH COLLATERAL. Creditor may, in its discretion: (i)
-----------------------
exchange, waive or release any of the Collateral; (ii) apply Collateral and
direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Creditor may determine; and (iii)
settle, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate any Collateral in any manner,
in each case without affecting the Obligations or Creditor's right to take any
other action with respect to any other Collateral.

<PAGE>
9. CREDITOR'S RIGHTS TO PROTECT COLLATERAL. For the purpose of carrying
---------------------------------------
out the terms of this Agreement, Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints Creditor and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of
substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full irrevocable
power and authority in Debtor's place, stead and name, or in its own name, from
time to time in Creditor's discretion, and at any time before or after default
and without notice to Debtor, to make any payment and do any other act which
Debtor is obligated to do under this Agreement, to exercise such rights as
Debtor might exercise, to enter Debtor's premises to give notice of Creditor's
security interest, to execute and file in Debtor's name any financing
statements, other filings and amendments thereto, or applications for
registration or like documents, required to perfect Debtor's security interest
in any Collateral, and to take any other reasonable action, all to protect and
preserve the Collateral and Creditor's rights therein. No action or inaction by
Creditor or any of the terms of this Agreement shall, however, relieve Debtor of
the obligation to do any of the foregoing acts or impose on Creditor any such
obligation. Debtor will immediately pay all Creditor's costs, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, and indemnify Creditor against all claims, demands
and liabilities incurred in exercising any of the foregoing rights or by reason
of Creditor being made a party to or intervening in any action or proceeding
affecting any Collateral or Creditor's rights, with interest on each item of
cost and liability from the date paid by Creditor at the annual rate of ten
percent (10%). This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and
shall be irrevocable.
10. PROHIBITED TRANSFERS. Debtor will not sell, lease, contract to sell
--------------------
or lease, transfer or create any encumbrance, purchase money or other security
interest in any Collateral until all Obligations have been paid, even though
Creditor has a security interest in proceeds of such Collateral and regardless
of whether any sale, lease, encumbrance or transfer is to an organization or
person controlled by Debtor or its then principals. Debtor will not without
Creditor's prior written consent change the legal form of its organization or
its business structure in any way which Creditor in good faith decides might
adversely affect the prospect of repayment of any of the Obligations, impair the
continuing validity or perfection of its security interest as to any Collateral
(including later-acquired property), or make a filed financing statement
misleading, and Debtor will not without Creditor's prior written consent merge
with or into any other organization or be subject to a change of control by
reason of a transfer of shares, voting power or other means. Any of the
foregoing notwithstanding, Debtor may sell any of the Collateral in the ordinary
course of business.
11. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following shall
-----------------
constitute an "Event of Default" under this Agreement:
11.1. Repayment of the $50,000 advance payment has not been made in
full when due; or
11.2. Any representation or warranty made by Debtor in this Agreement
or in the Side Letter Agreement is discovered to have been false in any material
respect at the time made.
12. CREDITOR'S RIGHTS ON DEFAULT. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
----------------------------
Default, Creditor may take any of the actions set forth herein or otherwise
available by law. Debtor will voluntarily surrender possession of the

ownership of the Collateral to Creditor. Creditor may take possession of any
Collateral and enter any premises where any Collateral is kept, with or without
judicial process, may sue Debtor for the full amount of any or all of the
Obligations without proceeding against any or all of the Collateral or sue
Debtor for any deficiency remaining after disposition of any or all of the
Collateral, may without notice or demand setoff and apply toward payment of any

at its option abandon any Collateral. Creditor shall have no liability to Debtor
for any damage to real or personal property which is not Collateral caused by
acts or omissions of Creditor or its agents done in good faith in the course of
removing of disposing of Collateral, or for any other such damage to Collateral
except as a result of Creditor's failure to sell or lease Collateral in a
commercially reasonable manner. Debtor will indemnify and hold Creditor harmless
from any claims, demands and liability, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
arising from claims of third persons resulting from such acts or omissions.
Debtor will also immediately pay Creditor its reasonable expenses of retaking,

Creditor any deficiency.
13. COSTS AND EXPENSES. Debtor shall reimburse Creditor upon demand for

provisions. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between Creditor and
Debtor with respect to all Collateral. This Agreement shall be governed by the
law of the State of California. Titles preceding any paragraph of this
Agreement are for convenience only and are not a part of this Agreement. No
waiver by Creditor of any breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any
breach or default thereafter occurring. The taking of any action by Creditor
shall not be deemed a waiver of any breach or default thereafter occurring and
the taking of any action by Creditor shall not be deemed to be an election of
that action, by rather the rights and privileges and options granted to Creditor
under the terms hereof shall be deemed cumulative, the one with the other and
not the alternative. This Agreement benefits Creditor's successors and assigns
and binds Debtor's heirs, legatees, personal representatives, successors and
assigns. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction. Nothing herein shall in any way limit the effect of the
terms and conditions of any other security or other agreement executed by Debtor
or any other party with respect to the Obligations, but each and every condition
hereof shall be in addition thereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of
the date first set forth above.

their successors-in-interest and their respective lenders, tenants, officers,
directors, trustees, employees, agents, successors and assigns (singularly,
"Indemnitee" and collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all
