AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND MERGER
THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND MERGER (this "Agreement")
dated as of April 7, 1997, among Printrak International Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Printrak"), TFP Acquisition Corp., a South Carolina corporation
and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Printrak ("Merger Sub"), TFP Inc., a South
Carolina corporation ("TFP"), and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ (the "Principal Shareholder").
R E C I T A L S:
A. Printrak, Merger Sub, TFP, and their respective Boards of Directors
and the Principal Shareholder deem it advisable to effect a reorganization
within the meaning of Sections 368(a)(1)(A) and 368(a)(2)(E) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Tax Code"), pursuant to which Merger Sub
(the "Merger") shall be merged with and into TFP in accordance with the terms
and provisions of this Agreement.
B. As a result of the Merger the shareholders of TFP ("TFP Shareholders")
will receive shares of Common Stock, $.0001 par value, of Printrak (the
"Printrak Common Stock") in exchange for the issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock or Preferred Stock of TFP (collectively, the "TFP Stock"), all as
more fully described in and subject to the specific terms and provisions of this
Agreement.
C. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions to which the
parties hereto have agreed and further contemplate the consummation of certain
related transactions hereinafter described.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises
and covenants of the parties hereto, and subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, the parties herein agree as follows:
1. DEFINITIONS. Certain terms are used in this Agreement as specifically
defined herein. Unless elsewhere defined in this Agreement, these definitions
are set forth or referred to in Section 14 of this Agreement. As used in this
Agreement, unless the context requires otherwise, the term "TFP" shall mean and
refer to TFP, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
2. REORGANIZATION AND MERGER. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that Merger Sub and TFP shall execute
and file the Articles of Merger in substantially the form attached hereto as
EXHIBIT A with the South Carolina Secretary of State, whereupon Merger Sub shall
be merged with and into TFP and TFP shall be the surviving corporation in such
merger and shall become a wholly owned subsidiary of Printrak. It is intended
that for federal tax purposes the Merger shall constitute a reorganization
within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) and 368(a)(2)(E) of the Code. The
parties intend that the Merger shall be accounted for using the pooling-of-
interests method.
2.1 SURVIVING CORPORATION. Upon the effectiveness of the Articles
of Merger (hereinafter referred to as the "Effective Time of the Merger"),
Merger Sub shall be merged with and into TFP and the separate existence of
Merger Sub shall cease. TFP shall be the corporation surviving the Merger.
2.2 ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS OF TFP. The Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of Merger Sub at and immediately prior to the Effective
Time of the Merger shall be the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of TFP
following the Effective Time of the Merger.
2.3 COMMON STOCK OF MERGER SUB. Each share of the common stock of
Merger Sub (the "Merger Sub Common Stock") issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time of the Merger shall, by virtue of the Merger and
without any action on the part of any holder thereof, be converted into one (1)
share of Common Stock of TFP.
2.4 CONVERSION OF TFP STOCK. Subject to the other terms of this
Section 2, each share of TFP Stock outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time of the Merger shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any
action on the part of any holder thereof, be converted into a number of shares
of Printrak Common Stock equal to the Conversion Number, subject to adjustment
pursuant to Section 2.6 below and subject further to the provisions of Section
2.8 regarding the elimination of fractional shares. As used herein, the term
"Conversion Number" means the number obtained by dividing (a) One Million Four
Hundred Thousand (1,400,000) shares of Printrak Common Stock by (b) that number
of shares of TFP Stock that is equal to the sum of (i) the total number of
shares of TFP Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time of the Merger, plus (ii) the total number of shares of TFP Stock,
if any, that are directly or indirectly ultimately issuable by TFP upon the
exercise, conversion or exchange of all TFP Derivative Securities that are
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.
Each share of TFP Preferred Stock shall be treated as one share of TFP Common
Stock.
2.5 CONVERSION OF TFP DERIVATIVE SECURITIES. Subject to the other
terms of this Section 2, each TFP Derivative Security and each Option to
purchase shares of Common Stock of TFP held by an employee or director of TFP
("TFP Employee Options") outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of
the Merger shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of
any holder thereof, be converted into the right to acquire that number of shares
of Printrak Common Stock determined by multiplying the number of shares of TFP
Common Stock into which such TFP Derivative Security or TFP Employee Options are
convertible immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger by the
Conversion Number, at an exercise price per share of Printrak Common Stock equal
to the exercise price per share of each TFP Derivative Security or TFP Employee
Options divided by the Conversion Number, subject to adjustment pursuant to
Section 2.6 below and subject further to the provisions of Section 2.8 regarding
the elimination of fractional shares. Such TFP Employee Options shall be
assumed by Printrak under the terms of an employee option plan to be established
by Printrak which shall provide the holders of such options with substantially
the same rights and obligations as TFP's Stock Option Plan.
2.6 PROTECTION AGAINST DILUTION AS TO CONVERSION RATE. In the event
that Printrak subdivides or consolidates the Printrak Common Stock or declares a
Common Stock dividend with respect to the Printrak Common Stock or recapitalizes
or reclassifies its shares of Common Stock subsequent to the execution of this
Agreement and effective prior to the Closing Date, the conversion
2
rate and type of security (and the exercise price, with respect to TFP
Derivative Securities and TFP Employee Options) shall be proportionately
adjusted.
2.7 EXCHANGE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES AND DERIVATIVE SECURITIES.
Immediately following the Closing, TFP and Printrak shall jointly submit to
Printrak's registrar and transfer agent, ChaseMellon Shareholder Services LLC,
▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (the "Exchange Agent"),
an instruction letter including a list of the names, addresses and social
security numbers/taxpayer identification numbers of each holder of shares of TFP
Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger who has
delivered the certificate or certificates representing all TFP Stock held by
such TFP Shareholder to Printrak and for which the holders thereof are not
entitled to claim dissenters' rights under the South Carolina Business
Corporation Act of 1988, as amended (the "South Carolina Code"). As soon as
reasonably practicable following the Effective Time of the Merger, Printrak
shall cause the Exchange Agent to cause each such TFP Shareholder to receive, in
exchange for the TFP Stock held by such TFP Shareholder, a certificate or
certificates representing the number of whole shares of Printrak Common Stock
into which the shares of TFP Stock so surrendered shall have been converted by
the Merger (less the shares of Printrak Common Stock which are to be held in
escrow pursuant to Section 2.13 below) and the cash payment in lieu of a
fractional share of Printrak Common Stock, if any, to which such TFP Shareholder
shall be entitled. Subject to any applicable escheat laws, until so surrendered
and exchanged, each certificate which prior to the Effective Time of the Merger
represented outstanding shares of TFP Stock shall be deemed for all corporate
purposes of Printrak, other than the payment of dividends or other
distributions, to evidence the ownership of the number of whole shares of
Printrak Common Stock into which the shares of TFP Stock represented thereby
shall have been converted and shall be deemed to represent, in lieu of a
fractional share of Printrak Common Stock, the right to receive cash. No cash
or stock dividend payable, no certificate representing split shares deliverable,
and no other distribution payable or deliverable to holders of record of
Printrak Common Stock at any time subsequent to the Effective Time of the Merger
shall be paid or delivered to the TFP Shareholder of any certificate which at
the Effective Time of the Merger represented TFP Stock unless and until such
certificate is surrendered to Printrak. However, subject to any applicable
escheat laws, upon such surrender there shall be paid or delivered to the
initial holder of record of the certificate or certificates for Printrak Common
Stock issued in exchange therefor, the amount of cash, a certificate
representing the number of shares of Printrak Common Stock, or the other
property resulting from any such dividends, splits, or other distributions, as
the case may be, which shall have therefore become payable or deliverable with
respect to Printrak Common Stock subsequent to the Effective Time of the Merger.
No interest shall be payable with respect to such payment or delivery of
dividends or other distributions upon the surrender of certificates which
represented TFP Stock at the Effective Time of the Merger. Following the
Effective Time of the Merger, Printrak shall exchange, or cause to be exchanged,
agreements in respect of all TFP Employee Options exchanged pursuant to Section
2.5 above for the existing agreements governing such TFP Employee Options, which
agreements shall, in the case of options to purchase TFP Stock, be governed by
the terms of Printrak's 1997 Replacement Option Plan to be established by
Printrak having terms comparable to the terms of TFP's Stock Option Plan.
2.8 FRACTIONAL SHARES. No certificates or scrip representing
fractional shares of Printrak Common Stock shall be issued upon surrender of
certificates of TFP Stock converted in connection with the Merger, and no
dividend, stock split, or other distribution of Printrak shall relate to any
such fractional share interest, and no such fractional share interest will
entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of
Printrak. In lieu of any such fractional share, each TFP
3
Shareholder shall be entitled, upon surrender of such TFP Shareholder's
certificate or certificates representing TFP Stock, to receive a cash payment
therefor, without interest, at a pro rata amount based on the closing price per
share of Printrak Common Stock on the NASDAQ/NMS on the trading day immediately
preceding the Effective Date of the Merger. No interest shall accrue with
respect to any cash held for the benefit of TFP Shareholders of unsurrendered
certificates representing shares of TFP Stock. Securities issued in exchange
for TFP Derivative Securities and TFP Employee Options shall represent the right
to purchase a number of shares of Printrak Common Stock rounded to the nearest
whole number thereof.
2.9 ISSUANCE OF PRINTRAK COMMON STOCK. All shares of Printrak
Common Stock into which shares of the TFP Stock shall have been converted in
connection with the Merger shall be deemed to have been issued in full
satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such converted shares and shall, when
issued pursuant to the provisions hereof, be fully paid and nonassessable.
2.10 TRANSFER BOOKS. The stock transfer books of TFP pertaining to
TFP Stock outstanding at the Effective Time of the Merger shall be closed at the
Effective Time of the Merger, and thereafter no transfer of any such shares of
TFP Stock shall be recorded thereon. In the event a transfer of ownership of
shares of TFP Stock is not recorded on the stock transfer books of TFP, a
certificate or certificates representing the number of whole shares of Printrak
Common Stock into which such shares of TFP Stock shall have been converted in
connection with the Merger may be issued to the transferee of such shares of TFP
Stock if the certificate or certificates representing such shares of TFP Stock
is or are surrendered to the Exchange Agent accompanied by all documents deemed
necessary by the Exchange Agent to evidence and effect such transfer of
ownership of shares of TFP Stock and accompanied by the payment of any
applicable stock transfer tax with respect to such transfer.
2.11 TFP DISSENTING SHARES. TFP Shareholders holding any shares of
TFP stock that are eligible to be "Dissenting Shares" within the meaning of
Chapter 13 of the South Carolina Code with respect to the Merger and as to which
dissenter's rights to require the purchase of such shares have been properly
exercised will be entitled to their rights under Chapter 13 of the South
Carolina Code with respect to such shares. Shares of TFP Stock as to which
dissenting shareholders' rights of appraisal have not been properly perfected
under Chapter 13 of the South Carolina Code will be converted as provided in
Section 2.4 above.
2.12 FURTHER ASSURANCES. TFP agrees that if, at any time after the
Effective Time of the Merger, Printrak considers or is advised that any further
deeds, assignments or assurances are reasonably necessary or desirable to be
obtained from TFP or its officers or directors, to consummate the Merger or to

4.6 LEASES, TITLE TO PROPERTIES, ETC. Attached hereto as SCHEDULE
4.6 is a general description of each parcel of real property owned or leased by
TFP. SCHEDULE 4.6 hereto also describes each lease agreement under which TFP
has any leasehold interest in any real property. TFP is in possession of all
such real properties owned or leased by it and described in SCHEDULE 4.6 hereto.
TFP has good title to all properties and assets owned by it, including those
reflected in the TFP Balance Sheet (other than properties and assets reflected
in the TFP Balance Sheet which have since been sold or otherwise disposed of in
the Ordinary Course of Business) and those described in SCHEDULE 4.6 hereto free
and clear of all liens, mortgages, security interests and encumbrances,
including any conditional sale or other title retention agreement (collectively,
"Liens"), except:
(a) liens for taxes not yet due and payable;
(b) statutory liens in immaterial amounts which are not yet
delinquent;
(c) minor defects and irregularities in title or encumbrances
which do not impair the use thereof for the purposes for which they are held;
and
(d) as set forth in the TFP Balance Sheet or in SCHEDULE 4.6
hereto.
The leases set forth in SCHEDULE 4.6 hereto are in full force and effect
and there is no existing default of a material nature under any of such leases
on the part of TFP or, to the best knowledge of TFP and the Principal
Shareholder, the other party thereunder. Such leases consist only of documents
described in SCHEDULE 4.6 hereto, complete and correct copies of which have been
provided by TFP to Printrak. To the best knowledge of TFP and the Principal
Shareholder, none of the buildings, structures or appurtenances located upon the
real properties described in SCHEDULE 4.6 hereto or the operation and
maintenance thereof as now operated or maintained, contravenes any zoning
ordinance or other administrative regulation (whether or not permitted because
of prior nonconforming use) or violates any restrictive covenant or any
provision of law, the effect of which would materially interfere with or prevent
the continued use of such properties for the purposes for which they are now
being used or would materially adversely affect the value thereof. The
buildings and major items of equipment and machinery reflected on the TFP
Balance Sheet are generally in such operating condition and repair, ordinary
wear and tear excepted, as is adequate for the conduct of TFP's business. TFP
has provided to Printrak a complete and correct copy of each policy of title
insurance pertaining to the real properties (exclusive of leasehold interests)
owned by TFP, and described in SCHEDULE 4.6 hereto.

unpaid Taxes of TFP, accrued for or applicable to the periods ended on such date
and all years and periods prior thereto and for which TFP, at those dates, was

TFP in the ordinary course of business. Neither TFP nor the Principal
Shareholder has received any notice or knows of any counterclaim or set-off with

facts or circumstances that would be the basis for any such counterclaim or set-
off, which is not reflected or taken into account in the contractual allowance

Ordinary Course of Business. Except to the extent collected since the Balance

terms, except as may be affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or
similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and general principles of
equity relating to the availability of equitable remedies. Except as otherwise
set forth in SCHEDULE 4.14 hereto, there have not been any defaults by TFP or,
to the best knowledge of TFP, defaults or any claims of default or claims of
nonenforceability by the other party or parties which, individually or in the
aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect on TFP, and there are no facts
or conditions that have occurred or that are anticipated to occur which, through
the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default
by TFP, or to the best knowledge of TFP, by the other party or parties, under
any of such contracts, agreements, leases, licenses and instruments or would
cause a creation of a lien, security interest or encumbrance upon any of the
assets of TFP or otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect on TFP.

14
have been delivered to Printrak. For purposes of this Section 4.21, the term
"Employee Plan" includes all present (including those terminated or transferred
within the past five (5) years) plans, programs, agreements, arrangements, and
methods of contribution or compensation (including all amendments to and
components of the same, such as a trust with respect to a plan) providing any
remuneration or benefits, other than current cash compensation, to any current
or former employee of TFP or to any other person who provides services to TFP,
whether or not such plan or plans, programs, agreements, arrangements, and
methods of contribution or compensation are subject to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), and whether or not such plan
or plans, programs, agreements, arrangements and methods of contribution or
compensation are qualified under the Tax Code. The term Employee Plan includes,
but is not limited to, pension, retirement, profit sharing, stock option, stock
bonus, and nonqualified deferred compensation plans and includes any Employee
Plan that is a multiemployer plan as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA. The
term Employee Plan also includes, but is not limited to, disability, medical,
dental, health insurance, life insurance, incentive plans, vacation benefits,
and fringe benefits. Any and all tax returns, reports, forms or other documents
required to be filed by TFP under applicable federal, state or local law with
respect to TFP's Employee Plans have been timely filed and are correct and
complete in all respects; and any and all amounts due by TFP to any governmental
agency or entity with respect to the Employee Plans have been timely and fully
paid. Except as set forth in SCHEDULE 4.21, all Employee Plans are now, and
have always been, established, maintained and operated in accordance with all
applicable laws (including, but not limited to, ERISA and the Tax Code) and all
regulations and interpretations thereunder and in accordance with their plan
documents. All written communications with respect to each Employee Plan by any
person (including, but not limited, to the members of any plan committee, all
plan fiduciaries, plan administrators, TFP and its management, and TFP's
employees) accurately reflect the documents and operations of each such Employee
Plan. Except as disclosed in SCHEDULE 4.21, each funded Employee Plan providing
for payment of deferred compensation is and always has been qualified under
Section 401 of the Code. Except as disclosed in SCHEDULE 4.21, the Internal
Revenue Service has issued one or more determination letters with respect to
each funded Employee Plan stating that, from the inception of each such Employee
Plan, such Employee Plan has been and is qualified under Section 401 of the Tax
Code and each trust maintained in connection with each such Employee Plan has
been and is exempt under Section 501 of the Tax Code. Except set forth in
SCHEDULE 4.21, there is no unfunded liability for vested or nonvested benefits
under any funded Employee Plan, and all contributions required to be made to or
with respect to each Employee Plan have been completely and timely paid. All
reports, forms and other documents required to be filed with any governmental
entity with respect to any Employee Plan have been timely filed and, to the best
knowledge of TFP, are accurate. There have been no filings with respect to any
Employee Plan with the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC"). No
liability to the PBGC has been incurred or is expected with respect to any
Employee Plan except for insurance premiums, and all insurance premiums incurred
or accrued up to and including the Closing Date have been or will be timely paid
by TFP. No amount is, and as of the Closing Date no amount will be, due or
owing from TFP to any "multiemployer plan" (as defined in Section 3(37) of
ERISA) on account of any withdrawal therefrom. There has been no event or
condition, nor is any event or condition expected, that would present a risk of
termination of any Employee Plan, or which would constitute a "reportable event"
within the meaning of Section 404(3) of ERISA and the regulations and
interpretations thereunder. There has been no merger, consolidation, or
transfer of assets or liabilities (including, but not limited to, a split-up or
split-off) with respect to any Employee Plan. There is and there has been no
actual or, to the best knowledge of TFP, anticipated, threatened or expected
litigation or arbitration concerning or involving any Employee Plan. No
complaints to or by any governmental entity have been filed or, to the best
knowledge of TFP, have
15
been threatened or are expected with respect to any Employee Plan. No Employee
Plan or any other person has any liability to any plan participant, beneficiary
or other person under any provision of ERISA, the Tax Code or any other
applicable law by reason of any transaction as described in Section 406 of ERISA
and Section 4975 of the Code with respect to any Employee Plan. No Employee
Plan provides medical benefits to one or more former employees (including
retirees), other than benefits required to be provided under Section 4980B of

account of any withdrawal therefrom. There has been no event or condition, nor
is any event or condition expected, that would present a risk of termination of
any Employee Plan, or which would constitute a "reportable event" within the
meaning of Section 404(3) of ERISA and the regulations and interpretations
thereunder. There has been no merger, consolidation, or transfer of assets or
liabilities (including, but not limited to, a split-up or split-off) with
respect to any Employee Plan. There is and there has been no actual or, to the
best knowledge of Printrak, anticipated, threatened or expected litigation or
arbitration concerning or involving any Employee Plan. No complaints to or by
any governmental entity have been filed or, to the best knowledge of Printrak,
have been threatened or are expected with respect to any Employee Plan. No
Employee Plan or any other person has any liability to any plan participant,
beneficiary or other person under any provision of ERISA, the Tax Code or any
other applicable law by reason of any transaction as described in Section 406 of
ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code with respect to any Employee Plan. No
Employee Plan provides medical benefits to one or more former employees
(including retirees), other than benefits required to be provided under Section
4980B of the Tax Code. There is no contract, agreement or benefit arrangement
covering any employee of Printrak which individually or collectively would
constitute an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Tax Code.

12. INDEMNITY.
12.1 INDEMNIFICATION OF PRINTRAK. Subject to the limitations
contained in this section, the persons and entities who are holders of
outstanding shares of TFP Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time of the
Merger (the "TFP Indemnitors") shall, jointly but not severally, on a pro rata
basis, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Printrak, its officers, directors,
shareholders, employees and agents from and against any and all losses, claims,
judgments, liabilities, demands, charges, suits, penalties, costs or expenses,
including court costs and attorneys' fees ("Claims and Liabilities") with
respect to or arising from (i) the breach of any warranty or any inaccuracy of
any representation made by TFP or the Principal Shareholder in this Agreement,
or (ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement made by TFP or the Principal
Shareholder in this Agreement.
12.2 LIMITATIONS. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, (i)
Printrak shall not be indemnified and held harmless in respect of any Claims and
Liabilities which are covered by insurance owned by TFP to the extent that any
net loss is reduced by such insurance and (ii) the liability of each holder of
TFP Stock shall be limited to such holder's Pro Rata Share (as defined in the
Escrow Agreement) of the Escrowed Property (as defined in the Escrow Agreement)
in or to be placed in the Escrow. In addition, Printrak and the Merger Sub
agree not to seek recourse against, and shall not recover from TFP Shareholders
on account of, any Claims and Liabilities until the aggregate amount thereof
exceeds Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) (the "Minimum Aggregate
Liability Amount"), at which time claims may be asserted for all amounts in
excess of the Minimum Aggregate Liability Amount. The parties further agree
that in the event of a misrepresentation or breach of warranty contained in
Section 4 that results not in any Claims and Liabilities but in a net benefit to
Printrak or TFP, the fair market value of such net benefit shall be credited
against, and shall increase the amount of, the Minimum Aggregate Liability
Amount.
31
12.3 INDEMNIFICATION OF TFP. Printrak shall defend, indemnify and
hold harmless TFP, and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and
agents against and in respect to all Claims and Liabilities with respect to or
arising from (i) breach of any warranty or any inaccuracy of any representation
made by Printrak or Merger Sub, or (ii) breach of any covenant or agreement made
by Printrak or Merger Sub in this Agreement; provided, however, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary Printrak's liability hereunder shall be limited to
$750,000. In addition, the TFP Shareholders agree not to seek recourse against,
and shall not recover from Printrak on account of, any Claims and Liabilities
until the aggregate amount thereof exceeds Three Hundred Thousand Dollars
($300,000) (the "Minimum Aggregate Liability Amount"), at which time claims may
be asserted for all amounts in excess of the Minimum Aggregate Liability Amount.
The parties further agree that in the event of a misrepresentation or breach of
warranty contained in Section 5 that results not in any Claims and Liabilities
but in a net benefit to Printrak or TFP, the fair market value of such net
benefit shall be credited against, and shall increase the amount of, the Minimum
Aggregate Liability Amount.
12.4 CLAIMS PROCEDURE. Promptly after the receipt by any indemnified
party (the "Indemnitee") of notice of the commencement of any action or
proceeding against such Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim with
respect thereto is or may be made against any indemnifying party (the
"Indemnifying Party") pursuant to this Section 12, give such Indemnifying Party
written notice of the commencement of such action or proceeding and give such
Indemnifying Party a copy of such claim and/or process and all legal pleadings
in connection therewith. The failure to give such notice shall not relieve any
Indemnifying Party of any of his or its indemnification obligations contained in
this Section 12, except where, and solely to the extent that, such failure
actually and materially prejudices the rights of such Indemnifying Party. Such
Indemnifying Party shall have, upon request within sixty (60) days after receipt
of such notice, but not in any event after the settlement or compromise of such
claim, the right to defend, at his or its own expense and by his or its own
counsel, any such matter involving the asserted liability of the Indemnitee;
provided, however, that if the Indemnitee determines that, as a result of an
existing or prospective business relationship between Printrak or any of its
subsidiaries on the one hand and any other party or parties to such claim on the
other hand, or as a result of other reasonable circumstances, there is a
reasonable probability that a claim may materially and adversely affect him or
it, other than solely as a result of money payments required to be reimbursed in
full by such Indemnifying Party under this Section 12, the Indemnitee shall have
the right to defend, compromise or settle such claim or suit; and, provided,
further, that such settlement or compromise shall not, unless consented to in
writing by such Indemnifying Party, be conclusive as to the liability of such
Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee. In any event, the Indemnitee, such
Indemnifying Party and his or its counsel shall cooperate in the defense
against, or compromise of, any such asserted liability, and in cases where the
Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense, the Indemnitee shall have the
right to participate in the defense of such asserted liability at the
Indemnitee's own expense. In the event that such Indemnifying Party shall
decline to participate in or assume the defense of such action, prior to paying
or settling any claim against which such Indemnifying Party is, or may be,
obligated under this Section 12 to indemnify an Indemnitee, the Indemnitee shall
first supply such Indemnifying Party with a copy of a final court judgment or
decree holding the Indemnitee liable on such claim or, failing such judgment or
decree, the terms and conditions of the settlement or compromise of such claim.
An Indemnitee's failure to supply such final court judgment or decree or the
terms and conditions of a settlement or compromise to such Indemnifying Party
shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party of any of his or its indemnification
obligations contained in this Section 12, except where, and solely to the extent
that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the rights of such
Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party is defending the claim as set
forth above, the
32
Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle the claim only with the
consent of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that if the Indemnitee shall fail
to consent to the settlement of such a claim by the Indemnifying Party, which
settlement (i) the claimant has indicated it will accept, and (ii) includes an
unconditional release of the Indemnitee and its affiliates by the claimant and
imposes no material restrictions on the future activities of the Indemnitee and
its affiliates, the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability with respect to
any payment required to be made to such claimant in respect of such claim in
excess of the proposed amount of settlement. If the Indemnitee is defending the
claim as set forth above, the Indemnitee shall have the right to settle or
compromise any claim against it after consultation with, but without the prior
approval of, any Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that such settlement or
compromise shall not, unless consented to in writing by such Indemnifying Party,
be conclusive as to the liability of such Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee.
12.5 TREATMENT OF INDEMNITY PAYMENTS. Any payment made to an
Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 12 or the Escrow Agreement shall be
treated as a reduction in the consideration paid by Printrak in connection with
the Merger.
12.6 AGREEMENT OF TFP INDEMNITORS. By virtue of the approval of the
