ARTICLE 6
COVENANTS, INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 To induce Fransaction and UFSY to enter into this Agreement and to

necessary or deemed desirable by Fransaction or UFSY in connection with

employees, accountants and attorneys shall cooperate fully with

Shareholders necessary or deemed desirable by Fransaction or UFSY for
inclusion in such statements and applications, including, without
limitation, all requisite financial statements and schedules.
6.1.3 Access to Information. Fransaction and UFSY, together
with their appropriate attorneys, agents and representatives, shall be
permitted to make the full and complete investigation of the Target

information as confidential and shall not disclose such information
without the prior consent of the other.
6.2 To induce the Target Company and the Shareholders to enter into
this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and
without limiting any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty made,
Fransaction and UFSY covenant and agree as follows:
6.2.1 Access to Information. The Target Company and the
Shareholders, together with their appropriate attorneys, agents and
representatives, shall be permitted to make the full and complete
investigation of Fransaction and UFSY and have full access to all of
the books and records of the other during reasonable business hours.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Parties shall treat all such
information as confidential and shall not disclose such information
without the prior consent of the other.
6.3 Indemnification.
6.3.1 Indemnity of the Target Company and the Shareholders.
Fransaction and UFSY agree to indemnify, defend and hold the Target
Company and the Shareholders harmless from and against any and all
Losses (as hereinafter defined) arising out of or resulting from the
breach by Fransaction or UFSY of any representation, warranty, covenant
or agreement of Fransaction or UFSY contained in this Agreement or the
schedules and exhibits hereto. For purposes of Section 6.3, the term
16
"Losses" shall mean all damages, costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees) of every kind, nature or description, it
being the intent of the Parties that the amount of any such Loss shall
be the amount necessary to restore the indemnified party to the
position it would have been in (economically or otherwise), including
any costs or expenses incident to such restoration, had the breach,
event, occurrence or condition occasioning such Loss never occurred.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, no claim for
indemnification shall be made by the Target Company or the Shareholders
under this section unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses
of the Target Company and the Shareholders in respect thereof shall
exceed $5,000.
6.3.2 Indemnity of Fransaction and UFSY. The Target Company
and the Shareholders, and each of them, hereby agrees to indemnify,
defend and hold Fransaction and UFSY harmless from and against any and
all Losses arising out of or resulting from the breach by the Target
Company or the Shareholders of any representation, warranty, agreement
or covenant contained in this Agreement or the exhibits and schedules
hereto, including, without limitation, the failure to disclose any
liabilities or material contracts or agreements pursuant to Section
2.1.10. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, no
claim for indemnification shall be made by Fransaction or UFSY under
this section unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses of
Fransaction and UFSY in respect thereof shall exceed $5,000.
6.3.3 Indemnification Procedure.
(a) An indemnified party shall notify the
indemnifying party of any claim of such indemnified party for
indemnification under this Agreement within thirty days of the
date on which such indemnified party or an executive officer
or representative of such indemnified party first becomes
aware of the existence of such claim. Such notice shall
specify the nature of such claim in reasonable detail and the
indemnifying party shall be given reasonable access to any
documents or properties within the control of the indemnified
party as may be useful in the investigation of the basis for
such claim. The failure to so notify the indemnifying party
within such thirty-day period shall not constitute a waiver of
such claim but an indemnified party shall not be entitled to
receive any indemnification with respect to any additional
loss that occurred as a result of the failure of such person
to give such notice.
In the event any indemnified party is entitled to
indemnification hereunder based upon a claim asserted by a
third party (including a claim arising from an assertion or
potential assertion of a claim for Taxes), the indemnifying
party shall be given prompt notice thereof, in reasonable
detail. The failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall
not constitute a waiver of such claim but an indemnified party
shall not be entitled to receive any indemnification with
respect to any Loss that occurred as a result of the failure
of such person to give such notice. The indemnifying party
shall have the right (without prejudice to the right of any
indemnified party to participate at its expense through
counsel of its own choosing) to defend or prosecute such claim
17
at its expense and through counsel of its own choosing if it
gives written notice of its intention to do so not later than
twenty days following notice thereof by the indemnifying party
or such shorter time period as required so that the interests
of the indemnified party would not be materially prejudiced as
a result of its failure to have received such notice;
provided, however, that if the defendants in any action shall
include both an indemnifying party and an indemnified party
and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that
counsel selected by the indemnifying party has a conflict of
interest because of the availability of different or
additional defenses to the indemnified party, the indemnified
party shall have the right to select separate counsel to
participate in the defense of such action on its behalf, at
the expense of the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying
party does not so choose to defend or prosecute any such claim
asserted by a third party for which any indemnified party
would be entitled to indemnification hereunder, then the
indemnified party shall be entitled to recover from the
indemnifying party, on a monthly basis, all of its attorneys'
reasonable fees and other costs and expenses of litigation of
any nature whatsoever incurred in the defense of such claim.
Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of any claim by
an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph, the
indemnified party shall have the right to approve the terms of
any settlement of a claim (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld).
(b) The indemnifying party and the indemnified party
shall cooperate in furnishing evidence and testimony and in
any other manner which the other may reasonably request, and
shall in all other respects have an obligation of good faith
dealing, one to the other, so as not to unreasonably expose
the other to an undue risk of loss. The indemnified party
shall be entitled to reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses
reasonably incurred by it in connection with such cooperation.
Except for fees and expenses for which indemnification is
provided pursuant to Section 6.3 or Section 6.4, as the case
may be, and as provided in the preceding sentence, each party
shall bear its own fees and expenses incurred pursuant to this
paragraph (b).
