All of the outstanding quotas of the Buyer have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable and have been issued in accordance with all applicable laws.

To the best of the Buyer’ knowledge, no basis exists for any action, suit, proceeding or investigation. Neither the Buyer, REMEC

(a) The Seller and ▇▇. ▇▇▇ hereby jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, disputes, proceedings, demands, judgments, settlements, costs and expenses of any nature whatsoever (including fees and disbursements of attorneys, accountants or other professional advisors relating to investigation, prosecution, negotiation, defense, settlement or appeal) (the foregoing referred to individually as a “Loss” and collectively as “Losses”) resulting from or arising out of (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller or the Principals contained in this Agreement or in any schedule, exhibit, certificate, document or other item delivered to the Buyer or its representatives in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the nonperformance, partial or total, of any covenant of the Seller or the Principals contained in this Agreement, (iii) any liabilities or obligations of any nature, (including without limitation product liability) whether known or unknown, whether fixed or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, attaching to or asserted or arising in respect of any of the Assets, which relate to matters or circumstances occurring on or before the Closing and which are not expressly assumed by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, and (iv) the claims of third parties arising out of or in connection with the business of either Himark Hong Kong or Himark Beijing (or the Himark Business howsoever conducted) conducted before the Closing.

(b) The Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Seller and the Principals from and against any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of the Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any schedule, exhibit, certificate, document or other item delivered to the Seller or its representatives in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the nonperformance, partial or total, of any covenant of the Buyer contained in this Agreement, and (iii) the claims of third parties arising out of or in connection with the business of either Himark Hong Kong or Himark Beijing conducted after the Closing.

(c) For purposes of Losses incurred pursuant to any matters set forth in this Agreement, the amount of the Loss ultimately determined will bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum, compounded monthly, from the date the Loss was incurred through to the date that the Indemnified Party was actually indemnified for the Loss. All interest accrued on a Loss will itself form part of the Loss and will be subject to indemnification as set forth in this Section 9.1.

(d) For purposes of indemnification sought pursuant to Section 9.1 of this Agreement, the party or parties seeking indemnification will be referred to as the “Indemnified Party” and the party or parties required to provide indemnification will be referred to as the “Indemnified Party”.

9.2 Limitation on Amount of Indemnity. Except with respect to: (a) liabilities arising from the fraudulent or intentional misrepresentations of any Indemnifying Party or (b) any claim for indemnification arising pursuant to breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.10 and 3.17 of this Agreement (each of the matters set forth in (a) and (b) above will not be limited by minimum amount), no Indemnifying Party will be required to indemnify an Indemnified Party under Section 9.1 unless the aggregate amount of all Losses for which indemnity is due exceeds $25,000, in which case the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for the entire amount of the Losses due.

9.3 Notice of Claims; Procedures. If an Indemnified Party makes any claim against an Indemnifying Party for indemnification, the claim must be in writing and state in general terms the facts upon which the Indemnified Party makes the claim. In the event of any claim or demand asserted against the Indemnified Party by a third party upon which the Indemnified Party may claim indemnification, the Indemnifying Party must give written notice to the Indemnified Party within 28 days after receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party indicating whether the Indemnifying Party intends to assume the defense of the claim or demand. Notwithstanding assumption, the Indemnified Party will have the right to participate in the defense, by written notice given to the Indemnifying Party within 15 days from the date of the Indemnifying Party’s notice, provided that participation will be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or different defenses are available to the Indemnified Party, in which case the cost of participation (including attorneys fees for counsel selected by the Indemnified Party) will be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense and the Indemnified Party does not participate, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to fully control and to settle the proceeding. If the Indemnified Party elects to participate in the defense, the parties will cooperate in the defense of the proceeding, and must not settle the same without the consent of the other, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense, the Indemnified Party will have the right to do so (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) and may settle the same without the consent of the Indemnifying Party.

SECTION 10.

REGISTRATION OF REMEC STOCK

10.1 Registrable Shares. For purposes of this Agreement, “Registrable Shares” means the REMEC Stock issued to the Seller in accordance with Section 2.2 of this Agreement.

10.2 Required Registration. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, REMEC will use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 covering the resale of the REMEC Stock (the “Resale Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act with respect to the sale of the Registrable Shares by the Seller. REMEC will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement and all registrations, qualifications and compliances (including, without limitation, obtaining appropriate qualifications under applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws and compliance with any other applicable governmental requirements or regulations) as the Seller may reasonably request and that would permit or facilitate the sale of Registrable Shares to become effective within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date; provided, however, that REMEC will not be required in connection therewith to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any state or jurisdiction. REMEC will provide the Seller upon request with as many copies of the prospectus contained in the Resale Registration Statement as the Seller may reasonably request.

10.3 Effectiveness; Suspension Right.

(a)

From and after the effectiveness of the Resale Registration Statement, REMEC will use its reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Resale Registration Statement until the earlier of (i) one hundred and eighty (180) days following the effectiveness of the Resale Registration Statement or (ii) such time as all of the Registrable Shares have been sold by the Seller (the “Registration Effective Period”), and from time to time REMEC will amend or supplement the Resale Registration Statement and the prospectus contained therein as and to the extent necessary to comply with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and any applicable state securities statute or regulation, subject to the following limitations and qualifications.

(b)

Following the effective date of the Resale Registration Statement, the Seller will be permitted, subject to the Suspension Right (as defined in paragraph (c) below), to offer and sell Registrable Shares during the Registration Effective Period in the manner described in the Resale Registration Statement provided that the Resale

Registration Statement remains effective and no stop order or suspension of the use of the Resale Registration Statement has been imposed by the SEC.

(c)

Subject to the provisions of this Section 10, REMEC will have the right at any time to require that the Seller suspend further open market offers and sales of Registrable Shares whenever, and for so long as, in the reasonable judgment of REMEC after consultation with counsel there is in existence material undisclosed information or events with respect to REMEC (the “Suspension Right”). If REMEC exercises the Suspension Right, the suspension will continue for that minimal period of time reasonably necessary for disclosure to occur at a time that is not materially detrimental to REMEC and its shareholders or until such time as the information or event is no longer material, each as determined in good faith by REMEC after consultation with counsel. REMEC will promptly give the Seller notice of any suspension.

10.4 Expenses. REMEC will bear all costs and expenses of registration under this Section 10, including, without limitation, printing expenses, legal fees and disbursements of counsel for REMEC, “blue sky” expenses, accounting fees and filing fees, but excluding any underwriting commissions or similar charges in connection with the resale of the REMEC Stock and excluding any counsel fees for counsel (if any) retained by the Seller.

10.5 Indemnification.

(a)

To the fullest extent permitted by law, REMEC will indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, each underwriter of REMEC Stock being sold by the Seller pursuant to this Section 10 and each person, if any, who controls the Seller or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (for purposes of this Section 10.5 only, a “Seller Indemnified Person”) against all actions, claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses to which they or any of them become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or under any other Law and, except as hereinafter provided, will promptly reimburse as incurred the Seller Indemnified Persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them or any of them in connection with investigating or defending any actions, whether or not resulting in any liability, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in any registration statement and any prospectus filed pursuant to this Section 10 or any post-effective amendment thereto,

or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by REMEC of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act applicable to REMEC and relating to action or inaction required of REMEC in connection with such registration; provided, however, that REMEC shall not be liable to any such Seller Indemnified Person in respect of any claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to REMEC by any Seller Indemnified Person specifically for use in connection with such registration statement and prospectus or post-effective amendment.

(b)

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Seller and each Principal will jointly and severally indemnify REMEC, each person, if any, who controls REMEC within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, each director of REMEC and each officer of REMEC who signs the Resale Registration Statement and each underwriter of REMEC Stock (for purposes of this Section 10 only, a “REMEC Indemnified Person”) against any actions, claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or under any other Law, and, except as hereinafter provided, will promptly reimburse such REMEC Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them or any of them in connection with investigating or defending any actions, whether or not resulting in any liability, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in any registration statement and any prospectus filed pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement or any post-effective amendment thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, which untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to REMEC by the Seller or either Principal specifically for use in connection with such registration statement, prospectus or post-effective amendment.

(c)

Each Seller Indemnified Person or REMEC Indemnified Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 10 (an “Registration Indemnified Person”) must give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Registration Indemnifying Person”) promptly after such Registration Indemnified Person has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought and must permit the Registration Indemnifying Person to assume the defense of any such claim and any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Registration Indemnifying Person who conducts the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom shall be approved by the Registration Indemnified Person (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Registration Indemnified Person may participate in such defense at such party’s expense, and provided further that the failure of any Registration Indemnified Person to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Registration Indemnifying Person of its obligations under this Section 10 except to the extent the Registration Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced thereby. No Registration Indemnifying Person, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, must (except with the consent of each Registration Indemnified Person) consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to each Registration Indemnified Person of a complete release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Registration Indemnified Person must furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as a Registration Indemnifying Person may reasonably request in writing and as will be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

(d)

To the extent that the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to a Registration Indemnified Person with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, then the Registration Indemnifying Person, in lieu of indemnifying such Registration Indemnified Person hereunder, must contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Registration Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Registration Indemnifying Person on, the one hand, and of the Registration Indemnified Person, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, claim,

damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Registration Indemnifying Person and of the Registration Indemnified Person will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Registration Indemnifying Person or by the Registration Indemnified Person and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
