instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree, or contract or an event which results
in the creation of any lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any assets of the
Company. The Company does not have any knowledge of any termination or material
breach or anticipated termination or material breach by the other parties to any

labor dispute relating to the Company is pending and no application for

file, with any federal, state or local governmental agencies alleging employment
discrimination or other violations of laws pertaining to such employees. The
Company is not aware that any officer or key employee of the Company or any

liability therefor, except as set forth on Section 2.14 of the Schedule of
Exceptions.

connection with the Securities Act or registration or qualification under such

thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and
after notice from the Company to such Indemnified Party of its election to

upon matters beyond the scope of the indemnity provided by this Section 7, the
Company shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf
of such Indemnified Party and the Company shall reimburse each such Indemnified
Party and any person controlling such Indemnified Party for that portion of the
reasonable and documented fees and expenses of any counsel retained by the

all liability, loss or damage, together with all reasonable and documented costs
and expenses related thereto (including legal and accounting fees and expenses),
arising from the untruth, inaccuracy or breach of any of the representations or
warranties set forth in Section 3 hereof; provided, however, that no
indemnification shall be required hereunder for the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of any Indemnified Party or breach by the Company of any of its
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Company contained in
this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or the assertion of any claims
relating to the foregoing. In case any such action is brought against an
Indemnified Party, such investor will be entitled to participate therein and
assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party, and after notice from such investor to such Indemnified Party
of its election to assume the defense thereof, such investor shall be
responsible for any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof,
provided that if any Indemnified Party shall have reasonable concluded, upon the
advice of legal counsel experienced in such matters, that there may be one or
more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party that conflict in any
material respect with those available to such investor, or that such claims or
litigation involves or could have an effect upon matters beyond the scope of the
indemnity provided by this Section 7(b), such Investor shall not have the right
to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party and
shall reimburse each such Indemnified Party and any person controlling such
Indemnified Party for that portion of the reasonable and documented fees and
expenses of any counsel retained by the Indemnified Party to the extent relating
to such defense or matters for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to
indemnification under this Section 7. Such investor shall not make any
settlement of any claims indemnified against hereunder without the written
consent of the indemnified Party or Parties, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Any claim for indemnification under this Section 7(b)
with respect to representations and warranties must be made not later than the
end of the survival period set forth in Section 8.1.
