Indemnification by the Shareholders The Shareholders severally (and not jointly) shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Purchaser Indemnitees for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees or to which any of the Purchaser Indemnitees may otherwise become subject (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with: (a) any Breach by the Shareholders of any representation or warranty of the Shareholders contained in this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement; (b) any Breach of any covenant of the Shareholders contained in this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement; and (c) any Proceeding relating directly or indirectly to any Breach, alleged Breach, Liability or matter of the type referred to in clauses "(a)" or "(b)" above (including any Proceeding commenced by any Purchaser Indemnitee for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights under this Section 6). The Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.2 until the total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such Breach and all other Damages arising from any other Breaches of any representations or warranties pursuant to this Section 6.2 (and excluding any Damages arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below)) exceeds $100,000 (the "Basket Amount") (it being understood and agreed that the Basket Amount is intended as a deductible, and the Shareholders will not be liable for the first $100,000 of Damages for which the Purchaser Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Basket Amount shall apply to (a) claims based on fraud or any claim in the nature of fraud or (b) claims arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below. Subject to Sections 6.3 and 7.14 below, all of the indemnification obligations of either of the Shareholders shall be satisfied exclusively by deduction from the Escrow Shares; provided, that, each Shareholder may elect, at its sole option, to satisfy such indemnification obligation in cash (the "Shareholder Cap").

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no limitation shall apply to (a) claims based on fraud or any claim in the nature of fraud or (b) claims arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below. For purposes of the indemnity obligations under Section 6, the value per share of Purchaser Series 1 Stock shall be deemed to be the Series 1 Value on the date of a written settlement agreement executed on behalf of the indemnifying party or parties or on the date of receipt of a final, non-appealable judgment issued by a court of competent jurisdiction; any indemnification obligation that may be satisfied by the surrender of Escrow Shares shall be satisfied by transfer of that number of Escrow Shares with a value (based on such Series 1 Value) equal to the amount of the indemnification obligation.
Termination by the Corporation If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Corporation upon the giving of written notice of such termination to the Executive at any time within the 6 month period following a Change of Control (other than for Just Cause, Disability or Death), then the Executive shall be entitled to the following: i. such payments on account of severance as provided for under Section 12(b) of this Agreement; and ii. notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12 hereof or in this Agreement, all options granted by the Corporation to the Executive shall, following the giving of any notice by the Corporation under this Section 14(a), be deemed to vest immediately and shall be exercisable by the Executive for a period of 90 days following the giving of such notice by the Corporation hereunder.

This indemnification will be in addition to any liability which the Fund may otherwise have; provided, however, that no party shall be entitled to indemnification if such loss, claim, damage or liability is due to the willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duty by the party seeking indemnification.

(c) The Distributor shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Indemnified Party shall have notified the Distributor in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after such Indemnified Party shall have received notice of any such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Distributor of any such claim shall not relieve the Distributor from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision. In any case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Parties, the Distributor will be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense thereof.
