From the date hereof (and any prior time) and until the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, each Seller is permitted to cause its representatives and Affiliates to initiate contact with, solicit or encourage submission of any inquiries, proposals or offers by, any Person (in addition to Purchaser and its Affiliates, agents and representatives) in connection with any sale or other disposition of the Purchased Assets

or the Businesses. In addition, Sellers shall have the responsibility and obligation to respond to any inquiries or offers to purchase all or any part of the Purchased Assets or the Businesses and perform any and all other acts related thereto which are required under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Law, including supplying information relating to the Businesses and the assets of Sellers to prospective purchasers.

(b) The bidding procedures that Sellers will use to evaluate any Competing Bid will include the following procedures, which will be reflected in the Bidding Procedures Order:

Purchaser agrees that it will promptly take such actions as are reasonably requested by Sellers to assist in obtaining the Sale Order and the Bidding Procedures Order, including furnishing affidavits or other documents or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court for the purposes, among others, of providing necessary assurances of performance by Purchaser under this Agreement and demonstrating that Purchaser is a “good faith” purchaser under Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. Prior to the entry of the Bidding Procedures Order, Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of Tamtron, file, join in or otherwise support in any manner whatsoever any motion or other pleading relating to the sale of the Purchased Assets hereunder. After the entry of the Bidding Procedures Order, Purchaser shall use good faith efforts to provide Tamtron, prior to filing, with copies of any such motion or pleading. In the event Purchaser is the successful bidder and the entry of the Sale Order or the Bidding Procedures Order shall be appealed, Sellers and Purchaser, each at their own expense, shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to defend such appeal.

ARTICLE VIII

Sellers agree that, prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall be entitled, through its officers, employees and representatives (including its legal advisors and accountants), to make such investigation of the properties, businesses and operations of the Businesses and such examination of the books and records of the Businesses, the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities as it reasonably requests and to make extracts and copies of such books and records. Any such investigation and examination shall be conducted during regular business hours upon reasonable advance notice and under reasonable circumstances and shall be subject to restrictions under applicable Law.

8.2Conduct of the Business Pending the Closing.

(a) Prior to the Closing, except (1) as set forth onSchedule 8.2, (2) as required by applicable Law, (3) as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement or (4) with the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), each Seller shall:

Each such party shall promptly inform the other parties hereto of any oral communication with, and provide copies of written communications with, any Governmental Body regarding any such filings or any such transaction. No party hereto shall independently participate in any formal meeting with any Governmental Body in respect of any such filings, investigation, or other inquiry without giving the other parties hereto prior notice of the meeting and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Body, the opportunity to attend and/or participate.

(b) If a filing under the HSR Act is legally required, Purchaser and Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take such action as may be required to cause the expiration of the notice periods under the HSR Act or other Antitrust Laws with respect to such transactions as promptly as possible after the execution of this Agreement. Purchaser and Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Body with respect to the

transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act, the Sherman Act, as amended, the Clayton Act, as amended, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, and any other United States federal or state or foreign statutes, rules, regulations, orders, decrees, administrative or judicial doctrines or other laws that are designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade (collectively, the “Antitrust Laws”). In connection therewith, if any Legal Proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement as in violation of any Antitrust Law, Purchaser and Sellers shall cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to contest and resist any such Legal Proceeding, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed, or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including by pursuing all available avenues of administrative and judicial appeal and all available legislative action, unless, by mutual agreement, Purchaser and Tamtron decide that litigation is not in their respective best interests.

8.4Further Assurances. Sellers and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) take all actions necessary or appropriate to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) cause the fulfillment at the earliest practicable date of all of the conditions to their respective obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.5Confidentiality.

(a) Purchaser acknowledges that the information provided to it in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, other than the structural and tax aspects of the transactions, is subject to the terms of the confidentiality agreement between Purchaser and IMPATH and/or their respective Affiliates and/or representatives dated September 9, 2003 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. Effective upon, and only upon, the Closing Date, the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other agreement to which the parties hereto are parties or by which they are bound, the obligations of confidentiality contained herein and therein, as they relate to the transactions described in this Agreement, shall not apply to the Tax structure or Tax treatment of the transactions described in this Agreement, and each party hereto (and any employee, representative, or agent of any party hereto) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the Tax structure and Tax treatment of the transactions described in this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analysis) that are provided to such party relating to such Tax treatment and Tax structure;provided,however, that such disclosure shall not include the name (or other identifying information not relevant to the Tax structure or Tax treatment) of any person and shall not include information for which nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.

8.6Preservation of Records. Sellers and Purchaser agree that each of them shall preserve and keep the records held by it or their respective Affiliates relating to the Businesses for a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date and shall make such records and personnel available to the other as may be reasonably required by such party in connection with, among other things, any insurance claims by, Legal Proceedings or Tax audits against or governmental investigations of Seller or Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates or in order to enable such Seller or Purchaser to comply with their respective obligations under this Agreement and each other agreement, document or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby. In the event a Seller or Purchaser wishes to destroy such records after that time, such party shall first give ninety (90) days prior written notice to the other and such other party shall have the right at its option and expense, upon prior written notice given to such party within that ninety (90) day period, to take possession of the records within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of such notice.

8.7Publicity. Neither Seller nor Purchaser shall issue any press release or public announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without obtaining the prior written approval of the other parties hereto, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless, in the sole judgment of Purchaser or Sellers, disclosure is otherwise required by applicable Law or with respect to filings to be made with the Bankruptcy Court in connection with this Agreement or by the applicable rules of any stock exchange or similar public trading system on which Purchaser or a Seller lists securities, provided that the party intending to make such release shall use its reasonable efforts consistent with such applicable Law or Bankruptcy Court requirement to consult with the other party with respect to the text thereof.

8.8Contacts with Suppliers and Customers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Closing, without the prior written consent of Tamtron, which may be withheld for any reason, Purchaser shall not contact any suppliers to, or customers of, the Businesses.

8.9Unaudited 2002 Financial Statements. Promptly after the date hereof, each Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of each Seller as at December 31, 2002 and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows of each Seller for the twelve month period then ended (together, with respect to each Seller, such Seller’s “Unaudited Financial Statements”). The Unaudited Financial Statements shall be prepared in accordance with the books and records of such Seller, as of the dates and for the periods indicated, and in accordance with GAAP and, except as may be set forth therein, shall present fairly in all material respects the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of such Seller as of the dates and for the periods indicated (subject to lack of footnote disclosure).

8.10Audited Financial Statements.

(a) Each Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Purchaser prior to the Closing Date (i) the audited consolidated balance sheet of such

Seller as at September 30, 2003 and the related audited consolidated statements of income and cash flows of such Seller for the nine-month period then ended and (ii) the audited consolidated balance sheet of such Seller as at December 31, 2002 and the related audited consolidated statements of income and cash flows of such Seller for the twelve-month period then ended (collectively, the “Audited Financial Statements”). The Audited Financial Statements shall be prepared in accordance with the books and records of such Seller, as of the dates and for the periods indicated, and in accordance with GAAP. For the avoidance of doubt, if Sellers use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Audited Financial Statements prior to the Closing Date but are unable to deliver the Audited Financial Statements prior to the Closing Date, such failure shall not constitute a failure to perform a material obligation of Sellers under this Agreement, relieve Purchaser of its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or result in any right of Purchaser to terminate this Agreement, but shall cause the Audit Escrow Amount to be deducted from the Purchase Price paid at Closing and delivered to the Escrow Agent pursuant toSection 3.4.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, Sellers shall engage Ireland San Filippo, LLP (the “Independent Auditors”) to prepare the Audited Financial Statements pursuant to an engagement letter in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tamtron and Purchaser. Prior to the Closing Date, each Seller shall provide the Independent Auditors with access to all necessary documents, records and appropriate personnel and take all other reasonable actions necessary to facilitate the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements, including the execution of management representation letters by the appropriate personnel of such Seller. In the event that Sellers are unable to deliver to Purchaser the Audited Financial Statements in accordance withSection 8.10(a) prior to the Closing Date, each Seller agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the Audited Financial Statements to Purchaser within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date. In connection with the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements, for a period of sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, (i) Purchaser shall provide the Independent Auditors with access to all necessary documents, records and appropriate personnel and take all other reasonable actions necessary to facilitate the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements and (ii) each of the Sellers and Purchaser, at their own expense, shall cooperate in good faith with each other and each other’s authorized representatives and the Independent Auditors.

(c) Sellers shall, and after the Closing Purchaser shall, use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditors to provide the necessary consents to Purchaser to permit Purchaser to incorporate the Independent Auditor’s opinion letter with respect to the Audited Financial Statements in Purchaser’s reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for periods required under Applicable Law.

(d) If Purchaser determines that Purchaser is required under Rule 3-05 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X to file the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Sellers as at December 31, 2003 and the related audited consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Sellers for the twelve-month period then

ended, each Seller agrees to cooperate with the Independent Auditors to provide the Independent Auditors with access to all necessary documents, records and appropriate personnel and take all other reasonable actions necessary to facilitate the preparation of such audited financial statements, including the execution of management representation letters by the appropriate personnel of such Seller with respect to pre-Closing periods during which period such personnel were employed by such Seller. All costs and expenses associated with such audit shall be borne by Purchaser.

(e) Promptly following the Closing, Sellers shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of each Seller as at the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”). In connection with the preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, (i) each of the parties hereto shall provide the other parties and their respective authorized representatives with access to all necessary documents, records and appropriate personnel and take all other reasonable actions necessary to facilitate the preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and (ii) each of the Sellers and Purchaser, at their own expense, shall cooperate in good faith with each other and each other’s authorized representatives. The parties acknowledge and agree that the covenants set forth in thisSection 8.10(e) are independent obligations which shall have no effect on any other provision of this Agreement, includingSection 8.10(a) and(b).

(f) IMPATH shall cause Sellers to comply with their obligations in thisSection 8.10.

8.11Transition Services. At the Closing, IMPATH and Purchaser shall execute and deliver to the other party a copy of the Transition Services Agreement. IMPATH and Purchaser agree to determine, in good faith, promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the administrative and accounting services that Purchaser will require under the Transition Services Agreement and determine the incremental costs to IMPATH to provide such services to Purchaser.

8.12Escrow Agreement. At the Closing, if required pursuant toSection 3.4, Sellers and Purchaser shall execute and deliver to the other parties thereto a copy of the Escrow Agreement.

8.13Employment Matters.

(a)Transferring Employees. Except with respect to those Employees identified by Purchaser to Sellers in writing, prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver, in writing, an offer of employment to each of the Employees who remain employed immediately prior to the Closing to commence immediately following the Closing. Each such offer of employment shall initially be at the same overall compensation level in effect immediately prior to the Closing. Such individuals who accept such offer by the Closing Date are hereinafter referred to as the “Transferring Employees.”

(b)Standard Procedure. Pursuant to the “Standard Procedure” provided in Section 5 of Revenue Procedure 96-60, 1996-2 C.B. 399, (i) Purchaser and

Sellers shall report on a predecessor/successor basis as set forth therein, (ii) Sellers will not be relieved from filing a Form W-2 with respect to any Transferring Employees, and (iii) Purchaser will undertake to file (or cause to be filed) a Form W-2 for each such Transferring Employee with respect to the portion of the year during which such Employees are employed by Purchaser that includes the Closing Date, excluding the portion of such year that such Employee was employed by such Seller.

(c)Benefits. Purchaser shall provide, or cause to be provided, to each of the Transferring Employees, employee benefits consistent with those benefits afforded to similarly situated employees of Purchaser, which benefits shall be available to such Transferring Employees upon commencement of employment with Purchaser. For purposes of eligibility and vesting under the 401(k) plan and vacation policies of Purchaser, Purchaser shall credit each Transferring Employee with his or her years of service with Seller and any predecessor entities, to the same extent as such Transferring Employee was entitled immediately prior to the Closing to credit for such service under the Employee Benefit Plans.

8.14Non-Competition. For a period from the Closing Date until the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, IMPATH shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of any business, whether in corporate, proprietorship or partnership form or otherwise, that competes directly with the Businesses;provided,however, that no purchaser of assets of IMPATH or other debtors in connection with the Bankruptcy Case shall be subject to, or bound by, the provisions of thisSection 8.14. The parties hereto specifically acknowledge and agree that the remedy at law for any breach of the foregoing will be inadequate and that Purchaser, in addition to any other relief available to it, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damage or posting any bond whatsoever.

TAXES

10.1Transfer Taxes. Purchaser shall be responsible for (and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Seller and its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents, successors and permitted assigns against) any sales, use, stamp, documentary stamp, filing, recording, transfer or similar fees or taxes or governmental charges (including any interest and penalty thereon) payable in connection with the transfer of the Purchased

Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities pursuant to this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”). Sellers shall, however, seek to include in the Sales Order a provision that provides that the transfer of the Purchased Assets shall be free and clear of any stamp or similar taxes under Bankruptcy Code Section 1146(c). To the extent that any Transfer Taxes are required to be paid by Sellers (or such Transfer Taxes are assessed against Sellers), Purchaser shall promptly reimburse Sellers for such Transfer Taxes. Sellers and Purchaser shall cooperate and consult with each other prior to filing any Tax Returns in respect of Transfer Taxes;provided,however, Sellers may initially pay any Transfer Taxes (for which Purchaser shall promptly reimburse Sellers) and, thereafter, in reliance on Section 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (if applicable) apply for a refund (which refund shall be remitted to the Purchaser to the extent such Transfer Taxes were previously reimbursed by Purchaser). Sellers and Purchaser shall cooperate and otherwise take commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any available refunds for Transfer Taxes. Sellers agree to cooperate and assist Purchaser in taking all steps necessary to ensure that the Purchased Intellectual Property, including software, is transferred to Purchaser electronically with the required documentation. Sellers further agree to assist Purchaser in documenting and certifying that no copies of the Purchased Intellectual Property, including software, will be retained on any tangible media, except as set forth in the License Agreement. It is understood that Purchaser will not receive or possess any copies of the Purchased Intellectual Property, including software programs, including any copies that may have existed on any computer workstations, laptops, servers, disks, magnetic tape or any other tangible media prior to the Closing Date.

10.2Prorations. All real and personal property Taxes or similar ad valorem obligations levied with respect to the Purchased Assets for any taxable period that includes the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date, whether imposed or assessed before or after the Closing Date, shall be prorated between Sellers and Purchaser as of 12:01 a.m. (Eastern time) on the Closing Date. If any Taxes subject to proration are paid by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, the proportionate amount of such Taxes paid (or in the event of a refund of any portion of such Taxes previously paid is received, such refund) shall be paid promptly by (or to) the other after the payment of such Taxes (or promptly following the receipt of any such refund).

10.3Purchase Price Allocation. Purchaser shall, within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, prepare and deliver to Sellers a schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) allocating the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities among the Assets in accordance with Treas. Reg. 1.1060-1T (or any comparable provisions of state or local tax law) or any successor provision. Sellers will have the right to raise reasonable objections to the Allocation Schedule within ten (10) days after their receipt thereof, in which event Purchaser and Sellers will negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections. If Purchaser and Sellers cannot mutually resolve Sellers’ reasonable objections to the Allocation Schedule within ten (10) days after Purchaser’s receipt of such objections, such dispute shall be presented to an accounting firm to be mutually selected by Purchaser and Sellers on the next day for a decision that shall be rendered by such accounting firm within thirty (30) calendar days thereafter and shall be final and binding upon each of the parties.

Purchaser and Sellers shall cooperate in the filing of any forms (including Form 8594) with respect to such allocation, including any amendments to such forms required with respect to any adjustment to the Purchase Price, pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the foregoing agreement shall survive the Closing Date without limitation.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall bear their own expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and each other agreement, document and instrument contemplated by this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Purchaser shall bear the filing fees associated with the HSR Act filings, if any.

11.3Injunctive Relief. Damages at law may be an inadequate remedy for the breach of any of the covenants, promises and agreements contained in this Agreement, and, accordingly, any party hereto shall be entitled to injunctive relief with respect to any such breach, including specific performance of such covenants, promises or agreements or an order enjoining a party from any threatened, or from the continuation of any actual, breach of the covenants, promises or agreements contained in this Agreement.

The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to process being served by any party to this Agreement in any suit, action or proceeding by delivery of a copy thereof in accordance with the provisions ofSection 11.8.

11.5Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. Each party to this Agreement waives any right to trial by jury in any action, matter or proceeding regarding this Agreement or any provision hereof.

ORDER (A) APPROVING BIDDING PROCEDURES FOR

SUBMISSION AND ACCEPTANCE OF COMPETING BIDS, AND

UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, PAYMENT OF A

BREAK-UP FEE AND EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT TO IMPAC

MEDICAL SYSTEMS, INC.; (B) SCHEDULING BIDDING DEADLINE,

AUCTION DATE AND SALE HEARING DATE; (C) ESTABLISHING

PROCEDURE FOR DETERMINING CURE AMOUNTS; AND

(D) FIXING NOTICE PROCEDURES AND APPROVING FORM OF NOTICE

Upon the motion, dated November 24, 2003 (the “Motion”), of IMPATH Inc. and its subsidiary debtors, as debtors and debtors-in-possession (collectively, “Impath” or the “Debtors”) for,interalia, entry of an order (i) approving the proposed bidding procedures annexed hereto as Exhibit A for submission and acceptance of competing bids (the “Bidding Procedures”) and, under certain circumstances, payment of a break-up fee in the amount of $440,000 (the “Break-Up Fee”) and expense reimbursement subject to a cap of $150,000 (the “Expense Reimbursement”) to IMPAC Medical Systems, Inc. (“IMPAC”); (ii) scheduling a bidding deadline, auction date, and sale hearing date; (iii) establishing procedure for determining cure amounts; and (iv) fixing notice procedures and approving forms of notice; and the Court having reviewed the Motion; and the Court having jurisdiction to consider the Motion and the relief requested therein pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § § 157 and 1334 and the Standing Order of Referral of Cases to Bankruptcy Court Judges of the District Court for the Southern District of New York, dated July 19, 1984 (Ward, Acting C.J.); and consideration of the

Motion and the relief requested therein being a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 157(b); and venue being proper before this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § § 1408 and 1409; and it appearing that notice of the Motion was good and sufficient under the circumstances and that no other or further notice need be given; and the Court having reviewed the Motion and having heard the statements in support of the relief requested therein at a hearing before the Court (the “Hearing”); and it appearing that entry of this order is in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates, and all parties in interest; and upon the Motion and the record of the Hearing and all other proceedings had before the Court; and after due deliberation and good cause appearing therefor, it is hereby

FOUND AND DETERMINED THAT:¹

A. The Debtors have articulated good and sufficient reasons for this Court to grant the relief requested in the Motion regarding the bidding process (the “Bidding Procedure Relief”), including the Court’s (i) approval of the Bidding Procedures, (ii) approval of payment of the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement as administrative expenses in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement (defined below), (iii) determination of final Cure Amounts² in the manner described herein, and (iv) approval of and authorization to serve the Sale Notice (as defined below).

B. The Debtors have articulated good and sufficient reasons for, and the best interests of their estates will be served by, this Court scheduling a subsequent hearing (the “Sale Hearing”) to consider whether to grant the remainder of the relief

¹	Findings of fact shall be construed as conclusions of law and conclusions of law shall be construed as findings of fact when appropriate.See Fed. R. Bankr. P. 7052.

²	Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Bidding Procedures and/or the Motion.

requested in the Motion, including approval of the sale of Tamtron Corporation and Medical Registry Services, Inc. (together, the “Sellers” and “Information Services”), in accordance with either (i) that certain asset purchase agreement, attached as Exhibit A to the Motion (together with all exhibits and agreements attached thereto, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between the Sellers and IMPAC or (ii) such other agreement that may constitute the Successful Bid, free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances, and interests (with the same to attach to the proceeds therefrom) pursuant to section 363 of title 11, United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) (the “Sale Transaction”).

C. The Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement to be paid under the circumstances as set forth in the Purchase Agreement are (1) an actual and necessary cost and expense of preserving the Debtors’ estates, within the meaning of section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, (2) commensurate to the real and substantial benefit conferred upon the Debtors’ estates by IMPAC, (3) reasonable and appropriate, in light of the size and nature of the proposed Sale Transaction and comparable transactions, the commitments that have been made, and the efforts that have been and will be expended by IMPAC, and (4) necessary to induce IMPAC to continue to pursue the Sale Transaction and to continue to be bound by the Purchase Agreement.

D. Moreover, the estates’ authorization to pay the Break-Up Fee and the Expense Reimbursement is an essential inducement and condition relating to IMPAC’s entry into, and continuing obligations under, the Purchase Agreement. Unless they are assured that each of the Break-Up Fee and the Expense Reimbursement will be made in each of the circumstances described in the Purchase Agreement, IMPAC is unwilling to remain obligated to purchase Information Services or be otherwise bound

under the Purchase Agreement (including the obligation to remain committed to their offer while such offer is subjected to higher or otherwise better offers as contemplated by the Bidding Procedures). The Debtors’ promise to pay each of the Break-Up Fee and the Expense Reimbursement has induced IMPAC to submit a bid that will serve as a minimum or floor bid on which the Debtors, their creditors, and other bidders can rely. IMPAC has provided a material benefit to the Debtors and their creditors by increasing the likelihood that the best possible purchase price for Information Services will be received. Accordingly, the Bidding Procedures and the Break-Up Fee are reasonable and appropriate and represent the best method for maximizing value for the benefit of the Debtors’ estates.

E. The Purchase Agreement and its terms were negotiated by the Debtors and IMPAC in good faith and in an arms-length manner.

F. Objections to (i) approval of the Sale Transaction, including the sale of Information Services free and clear of liens, claims, encumbrances, and interests pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) any Cure Amount, (iii) the assumption by the Debtors and assignment to IMPAC or a Successful Bidder of all Purchased Contracts (set forth on Exhibit F to the Motion), and/or (iv) the sale of property subject to a Shared Financing Arrangement (set forth on Exhibit G to the Motion) were required to be filed and served by no later than December 9, 2003 at 4:00 p.m.

NOW THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED THAT:

1. The Bidding Procedure Relief sought in the Motion is GRANTED.

2. The Bidding Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference, are hereby approved and shall govern all bids and bid proceedings relating to Information Services. The Debtors are authorized to take any and all actions necessary or appropriate to implement the Bidding Procedures.

3. Payment of the Break-Up Fee and the Expense Reimbursement under the circumstances set forth and in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement is hereby approved. If the Purchase Agreement is terminated for any reason and if payment of the Expense Reimbursement and/or the Break-Up Fee is triggered under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, such payments shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The Debtors are hereby authorized and directed, without need for further order of this Court, to pay IMPAC the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement in the manner and upon the terms as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement shall be paid out of the Debtors’ estates, and the claim or claims of IMPAC to payment of either or both of the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement shall constitute an allowed administrative expense claim arising under Bankruptcy Code § § 503(b) and 507(a)(1) in the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases.

4. The deadline for (a) submitting a Qualified Bid shall be December 19, 2003, at 11:00 a.m. (prevailing Eastern Time) (the “Bidding Deadline”).

5. As further described in the Bidding Procedures, the Debtors shall conduct the Auction on December , 2003 at the offices of Weil, Gotshal & Manges, attorneys for the Debtors, 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10153, if a Qualified Bid (other than IMPAC’s bid) is timely received.

6. The Court shall conduct the Sale Hearing on December , 2003, at :00_.m. (prevailing Eastern Time), at which time, the Court will consider approval of the Sale Transaction to the Successful Bidder.

7. If an objection to a Cure Amount has been timely filed and served, the Debtors may schedule a hearing to consider such objection in the event it cannot be resolved among the parties at or prior to the Sale Hearing. If no objection to the Cure Amount for the respective Purchased Contract has been timely filed and served, the Cure Amount set forth in Exhibit F shall be binding upon the respective non-Debtor party to the Purchased Contract for all purposes in the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases, and the respective non-Debtor party shall be forever barred from objecting to the Cure Amount set forth in Exhibit F, including, without limitation, the right to assert any additional cure or other amount with respect to their Purchased Contract. In the event one or more Contracts (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) are added to Exhibit F on or before the closing of the Sale Transaction, the Debtors will serve a notice of the amended exhibit on the non-Debtor parties to such Contracts, and such non-Debtor parties shall have thirteen (13) days thereafter to object to the Cure Amount, unless such period is shortened by the Court,provided,however, that the Debtors and IMPAC (or the Successful Bidder) shall be deemed to have reserved their right to exclude an executory contract until such time as the Cure Amount is fixed and accepted.

8. The effective date of any assumption and assignment of any Purchase Contract shall be the date on which the Sale Transaction closes. Any Cure Amounts to be paid under any Purchased Contract shall be paid either prior to or upon the

closing of the Sale Transaction, or as soon thereafter as the Cure Amount is fixed by the Court or agreed upon by the parties.

9. As further described in the Bidding Procedures, no bid or bids shall be a Qualified Bid, or otherwise considered for any purposes, unless such bid has a cash component of at least an amount equal to the sum of (a) the Purchase Price of IMPAC’s Bid (including the Deposit Escrow Funds) plus (b) assumption of the Assumed Liabilities and in the case of the initial Qualified Bid, must be at least seven hundred thousand dollars ($700,000) more than the Purchase Price of IMPAC’s Bid, and in the case of any subsequent Qualified Bids, one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000).

10. The notices described in the subparagraphs below (collectively, the “Sale and Auction Notices”) shall be good and sufficient, and no other or further notice shall be required if given as follows:

Within twenty-four (24) hours, the Debtors serve copies of this order and a notice of the auction and sale hearing, substantially in the form annexed as Exhibit E to the Motion (the “Sale Notice”) by first class mail upon (i) counsel to the Committee, (ii) IMPAC and its legal counsel, (iii) Fleet National Bank and its legal counsel, (iv) any party who, in the past three months, expressed in writing to the Debtors an interest in acquiring Information Services, and who the Debtors and their representatives reasonably and in good faith determine has the financial wherewithal to effectuate the transaction contemplated in the Purchase Agreement, (v) all parties who are known to claim interests in or liens upon Information Services, (vi) the Securities and Exchange Commission, (vii) the Internal Revenue Service, (viii) all applicable state attorneys general, local realty enforcement agencies, and local regulatory authorities, (ix) all applicable federal, state and local taxing authorities, (x) the U.S. Trustee and (xi) those persons who have requested service pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2002 (the “Service Parties”); and

Within three (3) business days, or as soon as practicable thereafter, the Debtors will publish the Sale Notice in The Wall Street Journal (National Edition ).

11. The failure of any objecting person or entity to timely file its objection shall be a bar to the assertion, at the Sale Hearing or thereafter, of any objection to the Motion, or the consummation and performance of the Sale Transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, or an agreement with the Successful Bidder, if any (including the transfer free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances, and interests of Information Services).

12. The Court shall retain jurisdiction over any matter or dispute arising from or relating to the implementation of this Order. The Debtors are hereby authorized and empowered to take such steps, expend such sums of money, and do such other things as may be necessary to implement and effect the terms and requirements of this Order. Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rules 6004(g) and 6006(d), this Order shall not be stayed for ten (10) days after the entry hereof and shall be effective and enforceable immediately upon signature hereof.

13. The Sale Hearing may be adjourned from time to time without further notice to creditors or parties in interest other than by announcement of the adjournment in open Court or on the Court’s calendar on the date scheduled for the Sale Hearing or any adjourned hearing.

IMPAC is a Qualified Bidder.

Within two (2) business days after Impath and the Committee receive from a Potential Bidder all of the materials required by subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, Impath shall determine, in consultation with its advisors, and shall notify IMPAC, the Committee, and the Potential Bidder in writing, whether the Potential Bidder is a Qualified Bidder. Only Qualified Bidders will be entitled to reasonable due diligence from the Sellers.

Bid Deadline

The deadline for submitting bids by a Qualified Bidder shall be December 19, 2003, at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) (the “Bid Deadline”).

Prior to the Bid Deadline, a Qualified Bidder that desires to make a bid shall simultaneously deliver written copies of its bid to: (i) IMPATH Inc., 521 West 57^th Street, New York, New York, 10019, (Attn: Richard Rosenzweig, Esq. and Holly Felder Etlin), Facsimile: (212) 698-0369; (ii) Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, attorneys for the Debtors, 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10153 (Attn: George A.

Due Diligence From Bidders

Impath and its advisors shall be entitled to reasonable due diligence from a Qualified Bidder. Each Qualified Bidder shall comply with all reasonable requests for additional information and due diligence access by Impath or its advisors. Failure by the

Qualified Bidder to fully comply with requests for additional information and due diligence access will be a basis for Impath to determine that a bid made by the Qualified Bidder is not a Qualified Bid.

Bid Requirements

A bid must be a written irrevocable offer from a Qualified Bidder, which is not subject to any due diligence, financing, or other contingencies, (i) stating that the Qualified Bidder offers to consummate a Sale Transaction pursuant to an agreement substantially in the form of the Purchase Agreement that has been marked to show amendments and modifications to the Purchase Agreement, including price and terms, that are being proposed by the Qualified Bidder (the “Marked Agreement”); (ii) enclosing a copy of the Marked Agreement; (iii) confirming that the offer shall remain open until the closing of a Sale Transaction to the Successful Bidder (as defined below); and (iv) providing for the consummation of the proposed transaction to occur not later 10 days after Bankruptcy Court approval of the transaction set forth in the Qualified Bid.

In addition to the foregoing, a Qualified Bid is a bid that:

•

has a cash component of at least an amount equal to the sum of (a) the Cash Puchase Price of IMPAC’s Bid (including the Deposit Escrow Funds) plus (b) assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, and in the case of the initial Qualified Bid (other than IMPAC’s Bid), must be at least seven hundred thousand dollars ($700,000) more than the Cash Purchase Price of IMPAC’s Bid, and in the case of any subsequent Qualified Bids, one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) over the preceding Qualified Bid;

•

is substantially on the same or better terms and conditions as those set forth in the Purchase Agreement;

•

is accompanied by a cash deposit of two million, two hundred thousand dollars ($2,200,000) (the “Deposit”), which shall be refunded by Impath in the event that such Qualified Bid is not a Successful Bid (as defined below) and which shall be credited towards the Cash Purchase Price in the event such bid is the Successful Bid; and

•

does not entitle or seek to entitle the Qualified Bidder to any expense reimbursement or termination or similar fee.

For all purposes hereof, IMPAC’s offer to acquire Information Services pursuant to the Purchase Agreement shall constitute a Qualified Bid.

Auction

If a Qualified Bid (other than IMPAC’s) is received by the Bid Deadline, an auction (the “Auction”) with respect to a Sale Transaction shall take place onDecember , 2003, at : a.m. (prevailing Eastern Time)at the offices of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10153. If, however,

no such Qualified Bid is received by the Bid Deadline, then the Auction will not be held, IMPAC will be the Successful Bidder, the Purchase Agreement will be the Successful Bid, and, at a hearing before the Bankruptcy Court to be scheduled, Impath will seek approval of and authority to consummate the Sale Transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

Only a Qualified Bidder who has submitted a Qualified Bid will be eligible to participate at the Auction. Only the authorized representatives of each of the Qualified Bidders, the Committee, IMPAC, Impath, and the Lenders shall be permitted to attend the Auction. At the Auction, Qualified Bidders will be permitted to increase their bids. The bidding at the Auction shall start at the purchase price stated in the highest or otherwise best Qualified Bid as disclosed to all Qualified Bidders prior to commencement of the Auction, and continue in increments of at least $100,000 in cash (i.e., no “credit bidding,” except that IMPAC shall be entitled to credit bid any Break-up Fee and Expense Reimbursement to which it is entitled under the Purchase Agreement). The highest or otherwise best Qualified Bid shall be determined by Impath after consultation with the Committee and the Lenders.

Impath, in its discretion, but after consultation with IMPAC, the Lenders, and the Committee, may adopt rules for the Auction at the Auction that, in its reasonable judgment, will better promote the goals of the Auction and that are not inconsistent with any of the provisions of the Bidding Procedures Order or the Purchase Agreement. All such rules will provide that: (i) the procedures must be fair and open, with no participating Qualified Bidder disadvantaged in any material way as compared to any other Qualified Bidder and (ii) all bids shall be made and received in one room, on an open basis, and all other bidders shall be entitled to be present for all bidding with the understanding that the true identity of each bidder (i.e., the principals submitting each bid) shall be fully disclosed to all other bidders and that all material terms of each Qualified Bid will be fully disclosed to all other bidders throughout the entire Auction.

Unless otherwise agreed to by Impath, in its discretion, but after consulting with IMPAC and the Committee, no Qualified Bidder will be permitted more than one hour to respond to the previous bid at the Auction and, at the expiration of such time (unless extended), the Auction shall conclude. Immediately prior to concluding the Auction, Impath shall (i) review each Qualified Bid on the basis of its financial and contractual terms and the factors relevant to the sale process and the best interests of Impath’s estates, including, without limitation, those factors affecting the speed and certainty of consummating a Sale Transaction and (ii) determine and identify, after consulting with the Committee and the Lenders, the highest or best Qualified Bid (the “Successful Bid”) and the next highest or otherwise best offer after the Successful Bid (the “Next Highest Bid”). Any bid submitted after the conclusion of the Auction shall not be considered for any purpose unless an order of the Bankruptcy Court is entered directing that such bid be considered and neither Impath, nor any other person, shall have any obligation to seek such an order from the Bankruptcy Court.

Acceptance of Qualified Bids

OnDecember , 2003, at : a.m. (Eastern Time), Impath shall present the results of the Auction together with the Successful Bid to the Bankruptcy Court at the Sale Hearing, at which certain findings will be sought by the Bankruptcy Court regarding the Auction, including, among other things, that (i) the Auction was conducted and the Successful Bidder was selected in accordance with these Bidding Procedures, (ii) the Auction was fair in substance and procedure, and (iii) consummation of the Sale Transaction contemplated by the Successful Bid will provide the highest or best value for Information Services and is in the best interests of each of the Sellers, Impath and its estates.

In the event that, for any reason, the Successful Bidder fails to close the Sale Transaction contemplated by its Successful Bid, then, without notice to any other party or further court order, Impath shall be authorized to close with the Qualified Bidder that submitted the Next Highest Bid.

Return of Deposit

Except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement (or as set forth above with respect to the Successful Bidder and the Next Highest Bidder), the deposits of all Qualified Bidders required to submit a deposit under the Bidding Procedures shall be returned upon or within one (1) business day after entry of the Sale Order. Except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement, the deposit of the Successful Bidder shall be held until the closing of a Sale Transaction and applied in accordance with the Successful Bid. Except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement, the deposit of the Next Highest Bidder shall be retained in escrow until 48 hours after the closing of a Sale Transaction. Pending the closing of a Sale Transaction, the deposit of the Successful Bidder and the Next Highest Bidder shall be maintained in an interest-bearing escrow account. If the closing does not occur, the disposition of deposits shall be as provided in the Successful Bid and Next Highest Bid, as applicable.

Debtors in the Motion at a hearing before the Court on December , 2003 (the “Hearing”); and it appearing that the Court has jurisdiction over this matter; and it further appearing that the legal and factual bases set forth in the Motion and at the Hearing establish just cause for the relief granted herein; and it further appearing that the relief requested in the Motion is in the best interests of the Debtors, their creditors, and all other parties in interest in the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases;

THE COURT HEREBY FINDS AND DETERMINES THAT:

A. The findings and conclusions set forth herein constitute the Court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Fed. R. Bankr. P. 7052, made applicable to this proceeding pursuant to Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9014.

B. To the extent any of the following findings of fact constitute conclusions of law, they are adopted as such. To the extent any of the following conclusions of law constitute findings of fact, they are adopted as such.

C. The court has jurisdiction over the Motion and the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334, and this matter is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2)(A) and (N). Venue of these cases and the Motion in this district is proper under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.

D. The statutory predicates for the relief sought in the Motion are sections 105(a), 363, 365, and 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code as supplemented by Rules 2002, 6004, and 6006 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the “Bankruptcy Rules”).

E. As evidenced by the affidavits of service and publication previously filed with the Court, and based on the representations of counsel at the

Hearing, (i) proper, timely, adequate, and sufficient notice of the Motion, the Hearing, the Sale (as herein defined), and the assumption and assignment of the Purchased Contracts, has been provided in accordance with Bankruptcy Rules 2002(a), 6004(a) and 6006(c) and in compliance with the order of the Court entered December , 2003 (the “Bidding Procedures Order”) establishing bidding procedures for the auction (the “Auction”) of the Purchased Assets, (ii) such notice was good and sufficient, and appropriate under the particular circumstances, and reasonably calculated to reach and apprise all holders of Interests (as hereafter defined) about the Sale thereof, the Auction and the Bidding Procedures, the Sale, and the assumption of the Purchased Contracts and (iii) no other or further notice of the Motion, the Hearing, the Sale, or the assumption and assignment of the Purchased Contracts is or shall be required.

F. As demonstrated by (i) the testimony and other evidence proffered or adduced at the Hearing, and (ii) the representations of counsel made on the record at the Hearing, the Debtors have marketed the Purchased Assets and conducted the sale process in compliance with the Bidding Procedures Order, the Auction was duly noticed, and a reasonable opportunity has been given to any interested party to make a higher and better offer for the Purchased Assets and the Purchased Contracts, although no such offer was made.

G. The Sellers (i) have full corporate power and authority to execute the Purchase Agreement and all other documents contemplated thereby, and the sale of the Purchased Assets by the Sellers has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action of each of the Debtors, (ii) have all of the corporate power and authority necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, (iii)

have taken all corporate action necessary to authorize and approve the Purchase Agreement and the consummation by the Sellers of the transactions contemplated thereby, and (iv) no consents or approvals, other than those expressly provided for in the Purchase Agreement, are required for the Sellers to consummate such transactions.

H. Approval of the Purchase Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Sale”) at this time is in the best interests of the Debtors, their creditors, their estates, and other parties in interest.

I. The Purchase Agreement was negotiated, proposed and entered into by the Sellers and IMPAC without collusion, in good faith, and from arm’s-length bargaining positions. Neither the Sellers nor IMPAC has engaged in any conduct that would cause or permit the Purchase Agreement to be avoided under 11 U.S.C. § 363(n).

J. IMPAC is a good faith purchaser under section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code and, as such, is entitled to all of the protections afforded thereby.

K. IMPAC is not an “insider” of any of the Debtors, as that term is defined in section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code.

L. The consideration provided by IMPAC pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (i) is fair and reasonable, (ii) is the highest and best offer for the Purchased Assets, (iii) will provide a greater recovery to the Debtors’ estates than would be provided by any other available alternative, and (iv) constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration under the Bankruptcy Code and under the laws of the United States, any state, territory, possession, or the District of Columbia.

M. The transfer of the Purchased Assets to IMPAC will be a legal, valid, and effective transfer of the Purchased Assets and, except for the liabilities being

assumed by IMPAC (as defined in section 2.3 of the Purchase Agreement, the “Assumed Liabilities”), will vest IMPAC with all right, title, and interest of the Sellers to the Purchased Assets free and clear of interests, Claims (as that term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code), or Liens (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), including, but not limited to (i) those that purport to give to any party a right or option to effect any forfeiture, modification, right of first refusal, or termination of the Sellers’ or IMPAC’s interest in the Purchased Assets, or any similar rights, (ii) those relating to taxes arising under or out of, in connection with, or in any way relating to the operation of the Purchased Assets prior to the consummation of the Sale (the “Closing”), and (iii) (a) those arising under all mortgages, deeds of trust, security interests, conditional sale or other title retention agreements, pledges, liens, judgments, demands, encumbrances, rights of first refusal or charges of any kind or nature, if any, including, but not limited to, any restriction on the use, voting, transfer, receipt of income or other exercise of any attributes of ownership and (b) all debts arising in any way in connection with any agreements, acts, or failures to act, of any of the Sellers or any of the Sellers’ predecessors or affiliates, Claims, Liens, obligations, liabilities, demands, guaranties, options, rights, contractual or other commitments, indemnities, indemnity obligations and warranties relating to any acts, omissions or circumstances arising prior to the Closing, including those constituting Excluded Liabilities (as defined in Section 2.4 of the Purchase Agreement), restrictions, interests and matters of any kind and nature, whether known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, whether arising prior to or subsequent to the commencement of these bankruptcy cases, and whether imposed by agreement, understanding, law, equity or otherwise, including but not limited to Liens or Claims

otherwise arising under doctrines of successor liability or any Claims, Liens, or Interests related to the Excluded Assets (as defined in Section 2.2 of the Purchase Agreement) or the Excluded Liabilities (collectively, the “Interests”).

N. IMPAC would not have entered into the Purchase Agreement and would not consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, thus adversely affecting the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors, if the sale of the Purchased Assets to IMPAC, the assignment of the Purchased Contracts to IMPAC, and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities by IMPAC were not, except as otherwise provided for in the Purchase Agreement, free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever, or if IMPAC would, or in the future could, be liable for any of the Interests including, but not limited to (a) all Liabilities arising out of Excluded Assets; (b) all Liabilities for Taxes relating to the Business for all taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date; (c) all Liabilities arising out of, relating to or with respect to the Purchased Assets or the operation of the Businesses for all periods up to and including the Closing Date; (d) all Liabilities arising out of, relating to or with respect to (i) the employment or performance of services, or termination of employment or services by Sellers or any of their Affiliates, of any individual on or before the Closing Date, including accrued vacation and any severance obligations under any Employee Benefit Plan or otherwise, (ii) workers’ compensation claims against a Seller that relate to the period ending on the Closing Date, irrespective of whether such claims are made prior to or after the Closing, (iii) any Employee Benefit Plan, and (iv) any sales commissions earned by an Employee prior to Closing; (e) all Liabilities arising from the sale of Products prior to the Closing Date pursuant to product warranties, product returns and

rebates, including any Liabilities that result from, relate to or otherwise arise out of tort or other product liability claims; (f) all accounts payable existing on the Closing Date (including, for the avoidance of doubt, (i) invoiced accounts payable and (ii) accrued but uninvoiced accounts payable); (g) all intercompany obligations, liabilities and indebtedness, including any note indebtedness, owed to or by a Seller to or by any Affiliates of Sellers; (h) the Cure Amounts; and (i) all Liabilities relating to amounts required to be paid by Sellers thereunder.

O. The Sellers may sell the Purchased Assets free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever because, in each case, one or more of the standards set forth in section 363(f)(1)-(5) of the Bankruptcy Code has been satisfied. Those (i) holders of Interests and (ii) non-Debtor parties to Purchased Contracts or property listed on Exhibit G to the Motion who did not object, or who withdrew their objections, to the Sale or the Motion are deemed to have consented pursuant to section 363(f)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. Those (i) holders of Interests and (ii) non-Debtor parties to Purchased Contracts who did object fall within one or more of the other subsections of section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code and are adequately protected by having their Interests, if any, attach to the cash proceeds of the Sale ultimately attributable to the property against or in which they claim an Interest.

P. The Sale is necessary to the consummation of a chapter 11 plan or plans, and is made in contemplation of such a plan or plans. Accordingly, the Sale is a transfer pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, which shall not be taxed under any law imposing a stamp, transfer, or any other similar tax.

Q. The Debtors have demonstrated that it is an exercise of their sound business judgment to enter into the Transition Services Agreement and to assume and assign the Purchased Contracts to IMPAC in connection with the consummation of the Sale, and the assumption and assignment of the Purchased Contracts, subject to the limitations described in Paragraphs M and N of this Order, is in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors. The Purchased Contracts being assigned to, and the liabilities being assumed by, IMPAC are an integral part of the Purchased Assets being purchased by IMPAC and, accordingly, such assumption and assignment of the Purchased Contracts and Assumed Liabilities are reasonable and enhance the value of the Debtors’ estates.

R. The Debtors have (i) cured and/or provided adequate assurance of cure of any default existing prior to the date hereof under any of the Purchased Contracts, within the meaning of section 365(b)(1)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (ii) provided compensation or adequate assurance of compensation to any party for any actual pecuniary loss to such party resulting from a default prior to the date hereof under any of the Purchased Contracts, within the meaning of section 365(b)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code, and IMPAC has provided adequate assurance of future performance under the Purchased Contracts, within the meaning of section 365(b)(1)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code.

S. Title to the property listed on Exhibit G to the Motion, located at certain of the Sellers’ facilities, and subject to certain shared Financing Arrangements (as defined in the Motion) has passed to the Sellers and may be sold to IMPAC fee and clear

of all liens, claims, and encumbrances, including any obligations under the Financing Agreements.

T. Other than the Sellers, none of the Debtors have any interest in or rights to any of the Purchased Assets, the Purchased Contracts or the property subject to the Shared Financing Arrangements to be transferred to IMPAC.

U. IMPAC would not have entered into the Purchase Agreement and would not consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, thus adversely affecting the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors, if the Debtors had not agreed to the non-competition provisions in the Purchase Agreement, which are fair and reasonable.

V. The Debtors have full corporate power and authority to cause the Sellers to comply with their obligations to deliver the Audited Financial Statements to the IMPAC.

NOW THEREFORE, THE COURT HEREBY ORDERS, ADJUDGES, AND DECREES AS FOLLOWS:

General Provisions

8.

11. If any person or entity that has filed financing statements, mortgages, mechanic’s liens, lis pendens, or other documents or agreements evidencing Interests in the Debtors or the Purchased Assets shall not have delivered to the Debtors prior to the Closing, in proper form for filing and executed by the appropriate parties, termination statements, instruments of satisfaction, releases of all Interests which the person or entity has with respect to the Debtors or the Purchased Assets or otherwise, then (a) the Debtors are hereby authorized and directed to execute and file such statements, instruments, releases and other documents on behalf of the person or entity with respect to the Debtors or the Purchased Assets and (b) IMPAC is hereby authorized to file, register, or otherwise record a certified copy of this Order, which shall constitute conclusive evidence of the release of all Interests in the Debtors or the Purchased Assets of any kind or nature whatsoever.

12. On the Closing of the Sale, each of the Debtors’ creditors and any other holder of an Interest is authorized and directed to execute such documents and take all other actions as may be necessary to release its Interests in the Purchased Assets, if any, as such Interests may have been recorded or may otherwise exist.

Assumption and Assignment

to IMPAC of Purchased Contracts

13. Pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and subject to and conditioned upon the Closing of the Sale, the Debtors’ assumption and assignment to IMPAC of the Purchased Contracts, and IMPAC’s assumption of such contracts on the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement and including the limitations described in Paragraphs M, N and Q of this Order, is hereby approved, and the requirements of section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect thereto are hereby deemed satisfied.

14. The Debtors are hereby authorized and directed in accordance with sections 105(a) and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code to (a) assume and assign to IMPAC, effective upon the Closing of the Sale, the Purchased Contracts free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever other than the Assumed Liabilities and subject to the limitations described in Paragraphs M, N and Q of this Order, and (b) execute and deliver to IMPAC such documents or other instruments as IMPAC deems may be necessary to assign and transfer the Purchased Contracts and Assumed Liabilities to IMPAC.

15. With respect to the Purchased Contracts: (a) each Purchased Contract is an executory contract under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) the Debtors may assume each of the Purchased Contracts in accordance with section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; (c) the Debtors may assign each Purchased Contract in accordance with sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and any provisions in any Purchased Contract that prohibit or condition the assignment of such Purchased Contract or allow the party to such Purchased Contract to terminate, recapture, impose any penalty, condition renewal or extension, or modify any term or condition upon the assignment of

such Purchased Contract, constitute unenforceable anti-assignment provisions which are void and of no force and effect; (d) all other requirements and conditions under sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code for the assumption by the Debtors and assignment to IMPAC of each Purchased Contract have been satisfied; (e) the Purchased Contracts shall be transferred and assigned to, and following the closing of the Sale remain in full force and effect for the benefit of, IMPAC, notwithstanding any provision in any such Purchased Contract (including those of the type described in sections 365(b)(2) and (f) of the Bankruptcy Code) that prohibits, restricts, or conditions such assignment or transfer and, pursuant to section 365(k) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors shall be relieved from any further liability with respect to the Purchased Contracts after such assignment to and assumption by IMPAC; and (f) upon Closing, in accordance with sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, IMPAC shall be fully and irrevocably vested in all right, title and interest of each Purchased Contract.

16. All defaults or other obligations of the Debtors under the Purchased Contracts arising or accruing prior to the Closing (without giving effect to any acceleration clauses or any default provisions of the kind specified in section 365(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code) shall be cured by the Debtors at the Closing or as soon thereafter as practicable by payment of the Cure Amounts (as hereinafter defined). The Sellers shall be entitled to reimbursement from IMPAC of any Cure Amounts for the Purchased Contracts, up to $160,000, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement. Exhibit F to the Motion, sent to the non-Debtor parties to the Purchased Contracts, reflects the sole amounts necessary under section 365(b) of the Bankruptcy Code to cure all monetary defaults under the Purchased Contracts (collectively, the “Cure Amounts”), and no other

amounts are or shall be due to the non-Debtor parties in connection with the assumption by the Debtors and the assignment to IMPAC of the Purchased Contracts. In the event one or more agreements is added to or deleted from Exhibit F on or before the Closing, the Debtors will serve a notice of the amended Exhibit F on the non-Debtor parties to such Contracts. To the extent such non-Debtor parties are added to the amended Exhibit F, such non-Debtor parties shall have thirteen (13) days thereafter to object to the Cure Amount, unless such period is shortened by the Court.

17. Each non-Debtor party to a Purchased Contract hereby is forever barred, estopped, and permanently enjoined from (i) asserting against the Debtors or IMPAC, or the property of any of them, any default or Claim arising out of any indemnity obligation or warranties for acts or occurrences arising prior to or existing as of the Closing, including those constituting Excluded Liabilities, or, against IMPAC, any counterclaim, defense, setoff or any other Claim asserted or assertable against the Debtors; and (ii) imposing or charging against IMPAC or its affiliates any rent accelerations, assignment fees, increases or any other fees as a result of the Debtors’ assumption and assignments to IMPAC of the Purchased Contracts. The validity of such assumption and assignments of the Purchased Contracts shall not be affected by any dispute between the Debtors and any non-Debtor party to a Purchased Contract relating to such contract’s respective Cure Amount.

18. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement or this Order, after the Closing, the Debtors and their estates shall have no further liabilities or obligations with respect to any Assumed Liabilities and all holders of such Claims are forever barred

and estopped from asserting such Claims against the Debtors, their successors or assigns, their property or their assets or estates.

19. The failure of the Debtors or IMPAC to enforce at any time one or more terms or conditions of any Purchased Contract shall not be a waiver of such terms or conditions, or of the Debtors’ and IMPAC’s rights to enforce every term and condition of the Purchased Contracts.

Transfer of Property Subject to Shared Financing Arrangements

20. The transfer of the property listed on Exhibit G to the Motion (the “Property”), pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, constitutes a legal, valid, and effective transfer of such property, and shall vest IMPAC with all right, title, and interest of the Sellers in and to such property free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances, of any kind or nature whatsoever.

21. Any valid and perfected liens in the Property are hereby preserved and shall continue and attach to the proceeds of the Sale, which may be discharged by the Debtors by the payment thereof without further order of the Court. The Debtors are hereby authorized to deposit $200,000 of the proceeds from the Sale into a segregated account pending determination by this Court or resolution by the parties of the extent to which the counterparties to any Financing Arrangements have valid, perfected, and unavoidable liens in any Property.

Additional Provisions

22. The consideration provided by IMPAC for the Purchased Assets under the Purchase Agreement is deemed to constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration under the Bankruptcy Code and under the laws of the United States, any state, territory, possession, or the District of Columbia.

23. The consideration provided by IMPAC for the Purchased Assets under the Purchase Agreement is fair and reasonable and the Sale may not be avoided under section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.

24. The Debtors are hereby authorized to (i) enter into the Transition Services Agreement, (ii) enter into the non-competition provisions of the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) take any such action as necessary to cause the Sellers to deliver the Audited Financial Statements, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

25. The sale of the Information Services business constitutes a Non-Core 363 Sale as defined in the Revolving Credit and Guarantee Agreement dated as of September 30, 2003 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Debtors are hereby directed to apply the Net Cash Proceeds (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from the sale of the Information Services business, first, to the prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding under the Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 2.7(b) of the Credit Agreement and, second, to the Prepetition Lenders (as defined in the Final Order (i) Authorizing Secured Postpetition Financing on a Superpriority Basis Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 364, (ii) Authorizing Use of Cash Collateral Pursuant to 11 U.S.C 363 and (iii) Granting Adequate Protection Pursuant to 11 U.S.C 363 and 364) consistent with paragraph 8(b)(iv) of the Final Order.

26. MPAC shall deposit on the Closing Date $440,000 of the Purchase Price in an escrow account (the “Audit Escrow Amount”), pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, in the event that Sellers are unable to deliver the Audited Financial Statements required under the Purchase Agreement at the Closing. The Audit Escrow

Amount shall be held, invested and disbursed by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. The Audit Escrow Amounts and all accrued investments income thereon shall be released, without further order of the Court, to Tamtron Corporation on the date of delivery of the Audited Financial Statements to IMPAC;provided,that, Sellers deliver the Audited Financial Statements on or before sixty (60) days following the Closing Date. In the event that the Debtors fail to timely deliver the Audited Financial Statements, the Audit Escrow Amount and all accrued investment income thereon shall be paid to IMPAC, without further Order of the Court, unless the failure to so deliver is due to the fault of IMPAC or IMPAC’s failure to cooperate after the Closing.

27. This Order (a) shall be effective as a determination that, except for the Assumed Liabilities, at Closing, all Purchased Assets shall be transferred to IMPAC free and clear of any Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever existing as to the Debtors and the Purchased Assets prior to the Closing, and that the conveyances described herein have been effected, and (b) shall be binding upon and shall govern the acts of all entities including without limitation, all filing agents, filing officers, title agents, title companies, recorders of mortgages, recorders of deeds, registrars of deeds, administrative agencies, governmental departments, secretaries of state, federal, state, and local officials, and all other persons and entities who may be required by operation of law, the duties of their office, or contract, to accept, file, register or otherwise record or release any documents or instruments, or who may be required to report or insure any title or state of title in or to any of the Purchased Assets.

28. Each and every federal, state, and local governmental agency or department is hereby directed to accept any and all documents, instruments, and permits necessary and appropriate to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Agreement.

29. All entities that are in possession of some or all of the Purchased Assets on the Closing are hereby directed to surrender possession of the Purchased Assets to IMPAC at Closing.

30. Except for the Assumed Liabilities or as expressly permitted or otherwise specifically provided for in the Purchase Agreement or this Order, IMPAC shall have no liability or responsibility for any liability or other obligation of the Debtors arising under or related to the Purchased Assets, and shall have no obligations arising out of or related to the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities.

31. IMPAC has given substantial consideration under the Purchase Agreement for the benefit of holders of Interests. The consideration given by IMPAC shall constitute valid and valuable consideration for the releases of any potential Claims of successor liability of IMPAC, releases which the Court holds shall be deemed to have been given in favor of IMPAC by all holders of Interests against the Debtors or their respective assets.

32. Under no circumstances shall IMPAC be deemed a successor of or to the Debtors for any Interest against or in the Debtors, the Purchased Assets, the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever. Except for the Assumed Liabilities, the sale, transfer, assignment and delivery of the Purchased Assets shall not be subject to any Interests, and Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever

shall remain with, and continue to be obligations of, the Debtors. Except for the Assumed Liabilities, all persons holding Interests against or in the Debtors, the Purchased Assets, the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever (including but not limited to, the Sellers and/or their respective successors, including any trustees thereof, creditors, employees, unions, former employees and shareholders, administrative agencies, governmental units, secretaries of state, federal, state and local officials, maintaining any authority relating to any environmental, health and safety laws, and their respective successors or assigns) shall be, and hereby are, forever barred, estopped, and permanently enjoined from asserting, prosecuting, or otherwise pursuing such Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever against IMPAC, its property, its successors and assigns, or the Purchased Assets, as an alleged successor or otherwise. Following the Closing, no holder of an Interest in the Debtors shall interfere with IMPAC’s title to or use and enjoyment of the Purchased Assets based on or related to such Interest.

33. Nothing contained in the Purchase Agreement or this Order (i) shall be deemed to sell, transfer, assign, or convey the Excluded Assets (as defined in section 2.2 of the Purchase Agreement) to IMPAC and the Debtors shall retain all right, title and interest to, in and under the Excluded Assets or (ii) shall be deemed to be an assumption by IMPAC of the Excluded Liabilities (as defined in section 2.4 of the Purchase Agreement). Under no circumstances shall IMPAC be deemed a successor of or to the Debtors for any liabilities of the Debtors relating to the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities.

34. This Court retains jurisdiction to enforce and implement the terms and provisions of this Order, the Purchase Agreement, all amendments thereto, any waivers and consents thereunder, and of each of the agreements executed in connection therewith in all respects, including, but not limited to, retaining jurisdiction to (a) compel delivery of the Purchased Assets to IMPAC, (b) compel delivery of the purchase price or performance of other obligations owed by or to the Debtors, (c) resolve any disputes arising under or related to the Purchase Agreement, except as otherwise provided therein, (d) interpret, implement, and enforce the provisions of this Order, and (e) protect IMPAC against (i) any of the Excluded Liabilities, (ii) the assertion of any Interests against the Purchased Assets, of any kind or nature whatsoever, or (iii) the assertion of any Claims or Interests arising out of the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities.

35. The transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are undertaken by IMPAC without collusion and in good faith, as that term is used in section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code, and accordingly, the reversal or modification on appeal of the authorization provided herein to consummate the Sale shall not affect the validity of the Sale (including the assumption and assignment of any of the Purchased Contracts), unless such authorization is duly stayed pending such appeal. IMPAC is a purchaser in good faith of the Purchased Assets, and is entitled to all of the protections afforded by section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code.

36. The terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement and this Order shall be binding in all respects upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors, IMPAC and its respective affiliates, successors, and assigns, and any affected third parties including, but not limited to, all persons asserting

an Interest in the Purchased Assets, notwithstanding any subsequent appointment of any trustee(s) under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, as to which trustee(s) such terms and provisions likewise shall be binding.

37. Nothing contained in any plan of reorganization confirmed in these cases or any order of this Court confirming such plan shall conflict with or derogate from the provisions of the Purchase Agreement or the terms of this Order.

38. The failure specifically to include any particular provisions of the Purchase Agreement in this Order shall not diminish or impair the effectiveness of such provision, it being the intent of the Court that the Purchase Agreement be authorized and approved in its entirety.

39. The Purchase Agreement and any related agreements, documents or other instruments may be modified, amended or supplemented by the parties thereto and in accordance with the terms thereof, without further order of the Court, provided that any such modification, amendment, or supplement does not have a material adverse effect on the Debtors’ estates.

40. The transfer of the Purchased Assets pursuant to the Sale is a transfer pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, and accordingly shall not be taxed under any law imposing a stamp tax or a sale, transfer, or any other similar tax. Each and every federal, state and local government agency or department is hereby directed to accept any and all documents and instruments necessary and appropriate to consummate the transfer of any of the Purchased Assets, all without imposition or payment of any stamp tax, transfer tax, or similar tax.

41. The provisions of this Order are non-severable and mutually dependent and, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 6004(g) and 6006(d), this Order shall not be stayed for 10 days and shall be effective immediately upon entry.

TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT

THIS TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and delivered this day of December 2003, by and between IMPATH Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Provider”), and IMPAC Medical Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”).

R E C I T A L S

WHEREAS, on November 24, 2003, Tamtron Corporation, a California corporation, Medical Registry Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (each a “Seller” and, together, “Sellers”), and Purchaser entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”; defined terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement), pursuant to which Purchaser agreed to purchase certain assets and business operations of Sellers, each of which is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Provider, and assume certain liabilities related thereto;

WHEREAS, Purchaser will require Services (as hereinafter defined) from Provider with respect to certain operations of the Businesses following the Closing Date; and

WHEREAS, in connection with and as a condition precedent to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, Provider has agreed to provide, and Purchaser desires to contract for, the Services.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants herein contained and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Services to be Performed.

(a) In accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, subject to Section 2 hereof, Provider agrees to perform for Purchaser the services described on Schedule A hereto (collectively, the “Services”) for up to a maximum of ninety (90) days from the date hereof (the “Transition Period”) and to the extent specified onSchedule A with respect to each such Service.

(b) The parties will consult and negotiate with each other in good faith, as required, with respect to the amendment, modification or furnishing of any additional Services and the amount to be paid therefor. If a Service is modified, amended or added in accordance herewith, the parties agree to execute and deliver to each other an amended and restatedSchedule A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that Provider shall have no obligation to provide additional services under this Agreement.

Section 2. Term and Termination.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective as of the Closing Date and shall terminate with respect to each Service on the date which is ninety (90) days from the date hereof unless earlier terminated pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 2.

(b) Purchaser agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to implement, or obtain replacements for, the Services as soon as practicable after the Closing Date and the parties agree that, if any Services are obtained by Purchaser prior to the termination of the Transition Period with respect to such Services, Provider shall no longer be obligated to provide such Services.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement may be terminated, or any or all of the Services may cease to be provided, at any time:

(i)

by the mutual consent of Purchaser and Provider;

(ii)

by Purchaser in the event of any material breach or default by Provider of any of Provider’s obligations under this Agreement and the failure of Provider to cure such breach or default within two (2) days after receipt of written notice from Purchaser requesting such breach or default to be cured; or

(iii)

by Provider in the event of any material breach or default by Purchaser of any of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and the failure of Purchaser to cure such breach or default within two (2) days after receipt of written notice from Provider requesting such breach or default to be cured.

(iv)

by Purchaser, at any time, and from time to time during the Transition Period, upon two (2) days prior written notice to Provider. If Purchaser elects to terminate a specific Service or Services, the Fees (as defined below) shall be appropriately reduced to reflect the termination of the particular Service or component thereof in any amount as mutually agreed to by Provider and Purchaser; or

(v)	by Purchaser, pursuant to Section 4(b) of this Agreement.

Section 3. Standard of Care.

(a) All Services provided by Provider hereunder shall be of substantially the same general level, quality and timeliness as is consistent with Provider’s past practice of providing the Services to the Businesses and Provider shall not be required to provide any

Service at a level, quality or timeliness that is higher than the level, quality or timeliness which Provider provided in the operation of the Businesses prior to the Closing Date.

(b) The parties shall cooperate with each other in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of Services. Such cooperation shall include exchanging information, subject to execution of appropriate confidentiality agreements.

Section 4. Payment.

(a) In consideration for the Services to be provided by Provider hereunder, Purchaser shall pay to Provider such fees and costs as set forth onSchedule A hereto (“Fees”);provided,however, that Provider may charge up to an additional five thousand dollars ($5,000) per month for increased costs it may incur in providing Services listed onSchedule A upon providing appropriate documentation of its increased costs to Purchaser. Provider shall forward to Purchaser invoices for the Services, listing separately the Services provided hereunder and listing the Fees for such Services. Invoices shall be payable within ten (10) days from date of invoice or as otherwise set forth in the applicable Schedule. Any late payment shall accrue interest at a rate of 10% per annum.

(b) If there is a dispute between Purchaser and Provider regarding the amounts shown as billed to Purchaser on any invoice, Provider shall furnish to Purchaser reasonable documentation to substantiate the amounts billed including, but not limited to, listings of the dates, times and amounts of the Services in question where applicable and practicable. Upon delivery of such documentation, Purchaser and Provider shall cooperate and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute among themselves. If Purchaser and Provider are unable to resolve their dispute within five (5) days of the initiation of such procedure, and Purchaser believes in good faith and with a reasonable basis that the amounts shown as billed to Purchaser are inaccurate or are otherwise not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then Purchaser shall have the right, upon payment of the amount shown as billed to Purchaser on such invoice, to terminate the Service being provided.

Section 5. Relationship of Parties.

(a) All employees and representatives of Provider or its Affiliates providing Services to Purchaser under this Agreement shall be deemed for purposes of all compensation and employee benefits to be employees or representatives solely of Provider or its Affiliates and not to be employees or representatives of Purchaser or its Affiliates. In performing their respective duties hereunder, all such employees and representatives of Provider or its Affiliates shall be under the direction, control and supervision of Provider or its Affiliates (and not of Purchaser or its Affiliates). Provider or its Affiliates, as the case may be, shall have the sole right to exercise all authority with respect to the employment (including termination of employment), assignment and compensation of such employees and representatives.

(b) The parties hereto are independent contractors, and neither party nor its employees or agents will be deemed to be employees or agents of the other for any purpose or under any circumstances. No partnership, joint venture, alliance, fiduciary or any relationship other than that of independent contractors is created hereby, expressly or by implication.

Section 6. Remedies.

PURCHASER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO ANY BREACH OR NONPERFORMANCE BY PROVIDER OF ANY OF PROVIDER’S OBLIGATIONS ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY SERVICE IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2 OF THIS AGREEMENT AND, UPON SUCH TERMINATION, THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE A RETURN OF ANY FEES THAT HAVE BEEN PAID TO PROVIDER FOR SERVICES NOT YET RENDERED AS OF THE DATE OF SUCH TERMINATION. PROVIDER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON, INCLUDING PURCHASER AND ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY), OR OTHERWISE, FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, WHICH IN ANY WAY ARISE OUT OF, RELATE TO, OR ARE A CONSEQUENCE OF, ITS PERFORMANCE OR NONPERFORMANCE OF ANY SERVICE HEREUNDER, OR THE PROVISION OF OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE ANY SERVICE HEREUNDER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTIONS AND CLAIMS OF PURCHASER.

Section 7. Miscellaneous.

(a)Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and performed in such State, irrespective of and without regard for its conflicts of law principles, as to all matters, including matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

(b)Subcontracting. Provider may subcontract any or all of the functions or Services to be performed by it under this Agreement, but Provider will retain responsibility for all matters subcontracted.

(c)Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement (including the Schedules hereto), the Purchase Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement represent the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement can be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

(d)Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns (as contemplated below in this Section 7(d)). Nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person not a party to this Agreement except for successors and permitted assigns. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by Provider or Purchaser (by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party and any attempted assignment without the required consents shall be void. No assignment of any obligations hereunder shall relieve the parties hereto of any such obligations. Upon any such permitted assignment, the references in this Agreement to Purchaser shall also apply to any such assignee unless the context otherwise requires.

(e)Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

(f)Notices. Any notice or other communication which, under this Agreement or otherwise must be given or made by either party, shall be in writing and shall be given as provided in the Purchase Agreement (with notice to Provider provided at the address and facsimile number set forth therein for notices to Seller).

(g)Survival of Obligations. The obligations of the parties under Sections 4, 6 and 7 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement or the cessation of providing a Service.

(h)Herein. The words such as “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereof,” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear unless the context otherwise requires.

(i)Including. The word “including” or any variation thereof means “including, without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it.

(j)Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.
