At February 28, 1996, there were outstanding 11,285,266 shares of the Common
Stock of Registrant, and the aggregate market value of the shares held on that
date by non-affiliates of Registrant, based on the closing price ($20.31 per
share) of the Registrant's Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market on that
date, was $178,075,639. For purposes of this computation, it has been assumed
that the shares beneficially held by directors and officers of Registrant were

of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon the
award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction thereof. Unless otherwise agreed, the
arbitration shall be held in Boston, Massachusetts before a
single arbitrator, mutually agreeable to the Parties; provided,
however, that if the Parties cannot agree upon a single
arbitrator within thirty (30) days following notice by one of
the Parties to the other Party that it wishes to commence

before a panel of three arbitrators, one selected by Customer,
one selected by Spectra, and the third selected by the two
arbitrators chosen by the Parties. The Parties shall each pay
half of the costs of arbitration. The arbitrators shall not
award any punitive, exemplary, or other amounts in excess of
actual damages. The arbitrators' decisions shall be final and
binding upon the Parties. This arbitration is the exclusive
procedure for dispute remediation of this Agreement.
12. Confidentiality.
12.1. CONFIDENTIALITY. Each Party shall maintain the confidentiality
of any Confidential Information it receives from the other
Party, and, except as expressly permitted in this Agreement,
shall not disclose any such Confidential Information to third
parties. The Party receiving Confidential Information from the
other Party shall use at least the same degree of care to
maintain its confidentiality as it uses to maintain its own
Confidential Information.
12.2. NO USE WITHOUT CONSENT. The receiving Party shall not, except
in connection with this Agreement, directly or indirectly use
Confidential Information of the disclosing Party without the
prior written consent of such disclosing Party.
12.3. EXCEPTIONS. Notwithstanding the definition of Confidential
Information or any other provision of this Agreement, a
receiving Party shall not be required to treat any information
received from the other Party as Confidential Information if and
to the extent the receiving Party can establish by documentary
evidence that: (i) such information is or becomes generally
known or available by publication, commercial use or otherwise;
(ii) such information was known by the receiving Party at the
time of disclosure by the other Party and was not subject to any
obligation of confidence; (iii) such information is rightfully
communicated to the receiving Party by a third Party free of any
obligation of confidence; or (iv) such information was developed
<PAGE>
by employees or agents of the receiving Party independently of
and without reference to Confidential Information of the other
Party.
12.4. DISCLOSURE PURSUANT TO JUDICIAL OR GOVERNMENTAL REQUEST. In the
event that the receiving Party is ordered to disclose the other
Party's Confidential Information pursuant to a judicial or
governmental request, requirement or order, such receiving Party
shall promptly, and in any event prior to disclosure, notify the
disclosing Party and take reasonable steps to assist such
disclosing Party in contesting such request, requirement or
order or in otherwise protecting that Party's rights.
12.5. EXPORT. Neither Party will export any Confidential Information
of the other Party except as permitted by the laws and
regulations of the United States and with the prior written
consent of the disclosing Party.
12.6. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Each Party hereby acknowledges that
unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Information of
the other Party could cause irreparable harm and significant
injury that may be difficult or impossible to quantify.
Accordingly, a disclosing Party shall have the might to seek and
obtain immediate injunctive relief from breaches of the
provisions of this Section 12, in addition to any other rights
and remedies it may have.
12.7. THIRD PARTY AGREEMENTS. Spectra shall permit an individual(s)
designated by Customer and approved by Spectra and bound by
Section 12.1 hereof to review Spectra's agreements with the
companies described in Section 4.2 hereof within thirty (30)
days following the execution hereof (unless previously reviewed
by such individual(s)).
12.8. SURVIVAL; EXPIRATION. The provisions of this Section 12 shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for a
period of five (5) years.
13. Force Majeure.
13.1. FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Party shall be responsible to the other
for failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder,
provided such failure shall be caused by an act of God, war,
riot, fire, explosion, flood, sabotage, inability to obtain fuel
or power, governmental laws, regulations or orders, failure or
destruction in whole or in part of machinery or equipment, or
any other cause beyond the reasonable control of either Party,
or labor trouble, strikes, lockout or injunction (whether or not
such labor event is within the reasonable control of either
Party). Agreed upon delivery schedules shall be considered
extended to a period of time not to exceed to the time lost
because of any delay excusable under this provision, except that
the offending Party shall use its reasonable efforts to minimize
such delays.

entire agreement between the Parties hereto pertaining to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and
contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations and
discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties with

as the agent for the other for any purposes whatsoever.
14.4. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision hereof would,
under applicable law, be invalid or unenforceable in any
respect, such provision shall (to the extent permitted under
applicable law) be construed by modifying or limiting it so as
to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent compatible
with, and possible under, applicable law. The provisions hereof
are severable, and in the event any provision hereof should be
held invalid or unenforceable in any respect, it shall not
invalidate, render unenforceable or otherwise affect any other
provision hereof.
14.5. ASSIGNMENT; BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement may not be assigned
by either Party except to a third party in connection with the
sale of all or substantially all the assets and business of the
assigning Party or to a third party in connection with a merger
or consolidation of the assigning Party with such acquiring
Party that results in the exchange of a majority of the
outstanding shares of the assigning Party for securities or
other consideration issued or paid by such acquiring Party.
