the   obligations  of  the  parties  under  this  Agreement  and  to  cause  the

their respective officers,  directors,  employees,  agents, counsel, accountants
and other  designees in connection with any steps required to be taken as a part
of their respective obligations under this Agreement.

6.2  Review  of  Prospect.   Prospect   shall  deliver  to  Purchaser,   or  its
representatives and lenders,  true, complete and correct copies of all documents
referred to in this Agreement or in any schedule furnished to Purchaser pursuant
to this Agreement.  Prospect shall permit  Purchaser or its  representatives  to
have, upon reasonable notice (and provided it will not cause undue disruption of
the conduct of their  business),  full access to the  Location and to all of the
books and records.  Until such time as the Closing  Date,  Purchaser  shall keep
Confidential Information (as defined below) obtained from Prospect confidential,
and will use same only to perform its obligations under the Agreement. Purchaser
confirms  that it will not utilize any  information  concerning  Prospect in any
detrimental  manner to Prospect.  In the event of termination of this Agreement,
Purchaser shall return  forthwith to Prospect the original and all copies of any
schedules,  statements,  documents  or other  written  information  obtained  in
connection therewith.  This Section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
"Confidential  Information"  as  used  in this  Agreement  includes,  but is not

6.3 Bulk Sale.  Following the execution of this  Agreement and at least ten (10)
days prior to the closing  thereof,  Prospect shall furnish a list of Prospect's
existing creditors to the Purchaser, signed and sworn to or affirmed by Prospect
or its agent.  Such list shall  contain the names and business  addresses of all
creditors  of  Prospect,  both  personal and  business,  and whether  general or
secured,  with the amounts  owing when known,  and also the names of all persons
who are known to Prospect to assert  claims  against  Prospect  even though such
claims are contingent or disputed.

6.4  Registration  Rights.  Commencing  one (1) year  after  the  Closing  Date,
Prospect or its designees or its shareholders shall have piggyback  registration
rights for the  Shares,  subject to an  underwriter  cut-back  in the case of an
underwritten  offering,  in which  case  the  number  of  Shares  that  shall be
registered  on behalf of Prospect or its  designees  or its  shareholders  shall
represent the same percentage as the percentage of shares of the total number of
Shares to be  registered  by  persons,  other than  Capital,  bears to the total
number of such  securities  requested to be registered  by such persons.  In the
event  Capital,  on  behalf  of any  selling  shareholder,  proposes  to  file a
registration  statement for the  registration of the sale of Common Stock (other
than a  registration  statement  on Form S-4 or S-8 or  relating to one filed on
behalf of  selling  shareholders  who  purchased  stock in a  private  placement
offering), Capital shall, at the request of Prospect, include the Shares in such
registration statement.  All costs of such registration (other than underwriting
discounts and commissions  and legal fees of Prospect's  counsel) shall be borne
by Capital.  These rights shall expire at such time as Prospect or its designees
or its shareholders are able to sell the Shares pursuant to Rule 144 without any
volume limitation.  Notwithstanding the above, if at any time during the one (1)
year period after the Closing Date either  Carmine or Anthony Stella include any
of their securities in a registration statement, then the piggyback registration
rights  provided  by this  section  6.4 shall be  available  to  Prospect or its
designees or its shareholders.

6.5 Board Representation.  At the Closing,  Capital agrees to take all necessary
action to elect Michael  Matrisciani to Capital's  Board of Directors,  to serve
until the next annual meeting of shareholders of Capital (which shall be held no
later than September 30, 2001).  At such annual  shareholders  meeting,  Capital
will nominate a new Board of Directors comprised of an equal number of designees
of the Prospect  Shareholders and an equal number of designees of Carmine Stella
and Anthony Stella.  Each of the Prospect  Shareholders  and Messrs.  Stella and
Stella shall vote their  respective  shares in favor of each other's nominees to
the Board,  thereafter  and from time to time  thereafter  at each  shareholders
meeting  in  accordance  with the  terms of the  Voting  Agreement.  Each of the
Prospect  Shareholders  and Messrs.  Stella and Stella shall  execute the Voting
Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

                  With respect to any claim or claims for breaches or alleged
breaches of representations and warranties contained in Article 3 hereof

or alleged breach unless written notice of a possible claim for indemnification

(the "Seller Indemnitees") and hold them harmless against any actual Loss which
any Prospect Indemnitee may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as the result
of (i) the breach by Purchaser of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement made by Purchaser contained in this Agreement or in any writing
schedule, closing document or financial statement delivered by Purchaser in
connection with this Agreement, (ii) any action, demand, proceeding,
investigation or claim by any party (including governmental agencies) against or
affecting any Seller Indemnitee which, if successful, would give rise to or
evidence the existence of or relate to a breach of any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements of Purchaser, (iii) any claims of any
brokers or finders claiming by, through or under Purchaser, or (iv) any claims
by a third party relating to any liabilities assumed by Capital.

                  With respect to any claim or claims for breaches or alleged
breaches of representations and warranties contained in Article 4 hereof Capital
will not be liable with respect to any such breach or alleged breach unless
written notice of a possible claim for indemnification with respect to such
breach or alleged breach is given by Seller (i) on or before twelve (12) months
after the Closing Date (the "Survival Date"), it being understood that so long
as such written notice is given on or prior to the Survival Date regarding any
actual or potential claim, such representations and warranties shall continue to
survive until such matter is resolved, notwithstanding the passing of the
Survival Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any breaches or alleged breaches
of the covenants or agreements contained herein, shall survive the Closing and
will be subject to the applicable statute of limitations.

                  (c) Defense of Claims. If a party hereto seeks indemnification
under this Section 8.1, such party (the "Indemnified Party") shall give written
notice to the other party (the "Indemnifying Party") of the facts and
circumstances giving rise to the claim. In that regard, if any suit, action,
claim, liability or obligation (a "Proceeding") shall be brought or asserted by
any third party which, if adversely determined, would entitle the Indemnified
Party to indemnity pursuant to this Section 8.1, the Indemnified Party shall
within 30 days notify the Indemnifying Party of the same in writing, specifying
in detail the basis of such claim and the facts pertaining thereto; provided
that the failure to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such
failure shall have harmed the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party, if it
so elects, shall assume and control the defense of such proceeding (and shall
consult with the Indemnified Party with respect thereto), including the
employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the
payment of expenses; provided, however, that in the event any proceeding shall
be brought or asserted by any third party which, if adversely determined, would
not entitle the Indemnified Party to full indemnity pursuant to Section 8.1, the
Indemnified Party may elect to participate in a joint defense of such proceeding
(a "Joint Defense Proceeding") for which the expenses of such joint defense will
be shared equally by such parties and the employment of counsel shall be
reasonably satisfactory to both parties. If the Indemnifying Party elects to
assume and control the defense of a proceeding, it will provide notice thereof
within 30 days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the matter and if
such proceeding is not a Joint Defense Proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall
have the right to employ counsel separate from counsel employed by the
Indemnifying Party in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof,
but the fees and expenses of such counsel employed by the Indemnified Party
shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (i) the employment
thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing or
(ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel.
The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding,
the defense of which it has elected to assume, which settlement is effected
without the written consent of the Indemnified Party; provided that no
settlement of a Joint Defense Proceeding may be effected without the written
consent of both parties. If there shall be a settlement to which the
Indemnifying Party consents or a final judgment for the plaintiff in any
proceeding, the defense of which the Indemnifying Party has elected to assume,
the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to the
settlement or judgment. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume and control
the defense or in the event of a Joint Defense Proceeding, the Indemnified Party
shall take all reasonable efforts necessary to assist the Indemnifying Party in
such defense.

                  (d) Payments. Any payment pursuant to a claim for
indemnification shall be made not later than 30 days after receipt by the
Indemnifying Party of written notice from the Indemnified Party stating the
basis and, the amount of the claim, unless the claim is subject to defense as
provided in Section 8.1 (c) or is a dispute, claim or controversy which is the
subject of an unresolved arbitration proceeding pursuant to Section 9.5, in
which case payment shall be made not later than 30 days after the amount of the
claim is finally determined after arbitration or litigation (except for legal
fees which will be discharged as incurred). Any payment required under this
Section which is not made when due shall bear interest at the rate of 9% per
annum.
                  (e) (i) No payment is required to be made for indemnification
by Prospect or the Prospect Shareholders unless the aggregate amount of actual
Losses to Capital exceeds $250,000 and then only to the extent that this
threshold has been exceeded.

          (ii) No payment is required to be made for  indemnification by Capital
          unless  the  aggregate  amount of actual  Losses  to  Prospect  or the
          Prospect  Shareholders  exceeds  $250,000  and then only to the extent
          that this threshold has been exceeded.  This exception shall not apply
          to any payments made in accordance with section 8.1(b)(iv).

                   (f) (i) Nothing contained in this Article or in Section 3.26
will limit the applicable statute of limitations of liability or a claim for
indemnification by Capital for the failure by Prospect to disclose claims or
liabilities actually known by Prospect on/or prior to the Closing Date or for
fraud.

          (ii) Nothing  contained in this Article or in Sections 4.15 will limit
          the  applicable  statute of  limitations  of  liability or a claim for
          indemnification  by  Prospect  for the  failure by Capital to disclose
          claims or  liabilities  actually  known by Capital  on/or prior to the
          Closing Date or for fraud.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

                  9.1 Mutual Assistance and Records. Each of the parties hereto
agrees that they will mutually cooperate in the expeditious filing of all
notices, reports and other filings with any governmental authority required to
be submitted jointly by Purchaser and Seller in connection with the execution
and delivery of this Agreement, the other agreements contemplated hereby and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Subsequent to
the Closing, Seller and Purchaser at their own cost, will assist each other
(including by the retention of records and the provision of access to relevant
records) in the preparation of their respective Tax Returns and the filing and
execution of Tax elections, if required, as well as in the defense of any audits
or litigation that may ensue as a result of the filing thereof, to the extent
that such assistance is reasonably requested. The Purchase Price shall be
allocated among the Purchased Assets in accordance with the methodology
described on Schedule 1.3 hereof and the parties will file a Federal IRS Form
8594. Each of the parties hereto covenants and agrees to prepare and timely file
all applicable Tax Returns and information reports in accordance with the
allocations developed by the parties.

                  9.2 Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement,
each party hereto shall be solely responsible for and shall bear its own costs
and expenses incident to its obligations under and in respect of this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to, any
such costs and expenses incurred by any party in connection with the
negotiation, preparation and performance of and compliance with the terms of
this Agreement (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of
counsel and other advisors).

                  9.3 Specific Performance. Each party hereto acknowledges and
agrees that the other party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the
provisions of this Agreement are not performed by such party in accordance with
their specific terms or are otherwise breached. Accordingly, each party hereto
agrees that the other party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to
prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement or in any schedules or
closing documents delivered in connection therewith and to enforce specifically
this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in
any court in New York State and the matter in addition to any other remedy to
which it may be entitled pursuant hereto.


9.4 Survival. Each and every representation and warranty set forth in Articles 3
and 4 shall survive the Closing Date for a period of one year, unless extended
pursuant to the provisions of Article 8. All other covenants and agreements set
forth in this agreement shall survive the Closing Date in accordance with the
applicable statute of limitations.

                  9.5      Arbitration Procedure.
                           ---------------------

                  (a) Each of the parties hereto agrees that they will attempt
to settle any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement
through good faith negotiations in the spirit of mutual cooperation between
senior business executives with authority to resolve the controversy.

                                       31
<PAGE>

                  (b) Any dispute, claim or controversy that cannot be resolved
by the parties through good faith negotiations within 30 days of the
notification to the other party of the commencement of the dispute resolution
procedures of this Section 9.4 will then, upon the written request of any party
hereto, be resolved by binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association by three
(3) arbitrators. Such arbitrator shall be mutually agreeable to the parties. If
the parties cannot mutually agree upon the selection of an arbitrator, the
arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the then effective
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. To the
extent not governed by such rules, such arbitrator shall be directed by the
parties to set a schedule for determination of such dispute, claim or
controversy that is reasonable under the circumstances. Such arbitrator shall be
directed by the parties to determine the dispute in accordance with this
Agreement and the substantive rules of law (but not the rules of procedure or
evidence) that would be applied by a federal court required to apply the
internal law (and not the law of conflicts) of the State of New York. The
arbitration will be conducted in the English language in New York City. Judgment
upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having
jurisdiction of the parties.

                  (c) Nothing contained in this Section 9.4 shall prevent any
party hereto from resorting to judicial process if injunctive or other equitable
relief from a court is necessary to prevent injury to such party or its
Affiliates. The use of arbitration procedures will not be construed under the
doctrine of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of any
party hereto to assert any claim or defense.

                  9.6 Further Transfers. Seller shall cause its Affiliates to,
execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and transfer and take
such additional action as Purchaser may reasonably request to effect,
consummate, confirm or evidence the transfer to Purchaser of the Purchased
Assets. Seller shall execute such documents as may be necessary to assist
Purchaser in preserving or perfecting its rights in the Purchased Assets.
Purchaser shall execute and deliver such further instruments and take such
additional actions as Seller may reasonably request to effect or consummate the
assumption by Purchaser of the assumed liabilities.

                  9.7 Transition Assistance. Seller and its Affiliates will not
in any manner take any action which is designed, intended or might be reasonably
anticipated to have the effect of discouraging customers, suppliers, lessors,
licensors and other business associates from maintaining the same business
relationships with Purchaser and its Affiliates after the date of this Agreement
as were maintained with the Seller and its Affiliates prior to the date of this
Agreement.

                  9.8 Best Efforts To Consummate Closing Transactions. On the
terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each of the
parties hereto agrees to use their best efforts to take, or to cause to be
taken, all reasonable actions, and to do, or to cause to be done, all things,
necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to
consummate, as soon as reasonably practicable, the Closing, including but not
limited to the satisfaction of all conditions thereto set forth herein.

                                       32
<PAGE>

                  9.9 Employees and Employee Benefits. The parties acknowledge
and agree that, from and after the Closing, Purchaser shall have the right (but
not the obligation) to interview any of Seller's employees and to elect which
employees (if any) which Purchaser shall have the sole and exclusive right to
(i) offer employment to and hire and (ii) set all terms and conditions of
employment that any person so hired by Purchaser shall receive. Except as set
forth on Schedule 9.9 or as set forth on the Closing Date Balance Sheet, Seller
will be responsible for, and will pay and hold Purchaser harmless in respect of,
all salary, wages, commissions and other compensation, withholding, payroll and
other Taxes, benefits and other amounts which are or become payable to or in
respect of any employee of Seller by reason of his or her employment by Seller.
Purchaser will not be responsible to compensate any person in which it does not
hire.
                  9.10 Advice of Counsel. The parties acknowledge and confirm
that they have been advised by counsel as to the consequences of this Agreement
and that they fully intend to be bound by these provisions.

          State of New York;

               i. The parties  agree that the language of this  Agreement  shall
               not be interpreted against the drafter; and

               ii. Should any provision of this Agreement be held to be illegal,
               void or  unenforceable,  such provision  shall be of no force and
               effect.However,  the illegality or  unenforceability  of any such
               provision  shall  have no effect  upon,  and shall not impair the
               enforceability of, any other provision of this Agreement.

          9.14  Waiver.  Waiver by any party of any  breach  or its  failure  to

          continuing  waiver or a waiver of any subsequent  breach or right. The
          failure of any party to take action at the earliest  possible  time to
          redress  any such  breach  or to  exercise  any such  right  shall not
          deprive such party of the right to take action at any subsequent  time
