INDEMNIFICATION
7.1 INDEMNIFICATION. Subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 7.4, the Company (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") agrees to indemnify, defend
and hold harmless each of the Purchasers and its Affiliates and their respective
officers, managers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners,
members and controlling persons (each, an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") to the fullest
extent permitted by law from and against any and all losses, Claims, or written
threats thereof (including, without limitation, any Claim by a third party),
damages, expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of
counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in any action between the Company
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party
and any third party (other than a third party who is an Affiliate of such
Indemnified Party) or otherwise in the manner described in Section 7.2 below) or
other liabilities (collectively, "Losses") resulting from or arising out of any
breach of any representation or warranty, covenant or agreement by the Company
in this Agreement. In connection with the obligation of the Indemnifying Party
to indemnify for expenses as set forth above, the Indemnifying Party shall, upon
presentation of appropriate invoices containing reasonable detail, reimburse
each Indemnified Party for all such expenses (including reasonable fees,
disbursements and other charges of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in
any action between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party or between
the Indemnified Party and any third party (other than a third party who is an
Affiliate of such Indemnified Party) as they are incurred by such Indemnified
Party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if an Indemnified Party is reimbursed under this
Article VII for any expenses, such reimbursement of expenses shall be refunded
to the extent it is finally judicially determined that such expenses resulted
solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified
Party.
7.2 NOTIFICATION. Each Indemnified Party under this Article
VII shall, promptly after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any Claim
against such Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought from
the Indemnifying Party under this Article VII, notify the Indemnifying Party in
writing of the commencement thereof. The omission of any Indemnified Party to so
notify the Indemnifying Party of any such action shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Parties from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified
Party (a) other than pursuant to this Article VII or (b) under this Article VII
unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in such Indemnifying
Party's forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses. In case any such Claim
shall be brought against any Indemnified Party, and it shall notify the
Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be
entitled to assume the defense thereof at their own expense, with counsel
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in its reasonable judgment; provided that
any Indemnified Party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to
participate in such defense at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in any Claim in which both the Indemnifying
21
Party, on the one hand, and an Indemnified Party, on the other hand, are, or are
reasonably likely to become, a party, such Indemnified Party shall have the
right to employ separate counsel and to control its own defense of such Claim
if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, either (x)
one or more defenses are available to the Indemnified Party that are not
available to the Indemnifying Parties or (y) a conflict or potential conflict
exists between the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified
Party, on the other hand, that would make such separate representation
advisable; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Indemnifying Party (i) shall not be
liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel to all Indemnified
Parties and (ii) shall reimburse the Indemnified Parties for all of such fees
and expenses of such counsel, as such fees and expenses are incurred. The
Indemnifying Party agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of
the Purchasers, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in
any pending or threatened Claim relating to the matters contemplated hereby (if
any Indemnified Party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to be
made a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an
unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising or
that may arise out of such Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for
any settlement of any Claim effected against an Indemnified Party without its
written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The rights
accorded to an Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to any rights
that any Indemnified Party may have at common law, by separate agreement or
otherwise; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Article VII shall
restrict or limit any rights that any Indemnified Party may have to seek
equitable relief.
7.3 CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided for in this
Article VII from an Indemnifying Party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party
hereunder in respect of any Losses for which such Indemnified Party would
otherwise be required to indemnify the Indemnified Party under this Article VII,
then such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a
result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection
with the actions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative faults of such Indemnifying Party and
Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has
been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or
Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid
or payable by a party as a result of the Losses referred to above shall be
deemed to include any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably
incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.
7.4 CAP ON INDEMNIFICATION. The amount of any payment by the
Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Parties under this Article VII in respect
of Losses resulting from or arising out of any indemnification claim made
pursuant to Section 7.1
22
shall in no event exceed the aggregate purchase price paid to the Company in
consideration of the Purchased Securities.

forty-five (45) days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of
each fiscal year, the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for
such quarter and for the period commencing on the first day of the fiscal year
and ending on the last day of such quarter, all certified by an appropriate
officer of the Company as presenting fairly the consolidated financial condition
as of such date and results of operations and cash flows for the periods
indicated in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis, subject to
normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes required by GAAP; and
(c) such other information of the type that would satisfy Rule
144A(d)(4)(i).
8.2 BOOKS AND RECORDS. The Company shall keep proper books of
record and account, in which full and correct entries shall be made of all
financial transactions and the assets and business of the Company and its
Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP consistently applied.
23
8.3 INSPECTION. As long as the Purchasers or Affiliates
thereof hold in the aggregate not less than the Minimum Ownership Percentage,
the Company shall permit representatives of such Purchasers to visit and inspect
any of its properties and make copies of the Company's corporate and financial
records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with its directors
and officers, all at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as
often as may be reasonably requested upon reasonable advance notice to the
Company.
8.4 BOARD REPRESENTATION.
(a) The Board of Directors of the Company shall be comprised
of seven members. The Company shall fill the existing vacancy on its Board of
Directors with one person designated by GAP LP, which designee shall initially
be Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, and shall cause another director to resign and cause the
resulting vacancy on the Board of Directors to be filled by one person
designated by GAP LP (collectively, the "GAP DESIGNEES"). The General Atlantic
Designees shall serve in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation and the
Bylaws until the next succeeding annual meeting of stockholders of the Company
to be held after such election for the purpose of electing directors of the
class of which the General Atlantic Designees are members.
(b) As long as the Purchasers or Affiliates thereof continue
to beneficially own in the aggregate not less than the Minimum Ownership
Percentage, commencing with the next succeeding annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Company at which directors of the class of which the General
Atlantic Designees are members are elected, and at each annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Company thereafter held for the purpose of electing
directors of such class, GAP LP shall be entitled to designate to the Board of
Directors the General Atlantic Designees to serve as two of the directors of the
Company. The Company shall cause such General Atlantic Designees to be included
in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board of Directors to the Company's
stockholders for election as directors, and the Company shall use its reasonable
best efforts to cause the election of such General Atlantic Designees, including
using its reasonably best efforts to cause officers of the Company who hold
proxies (unless otherwise directed by the stockholder submitting such proxy) to
vote such proxies in favor of the election of such General Atlantic Designees,
unless the Board of Directors determines in good faith, with the written advice
of outside counsel, that it would be inconsistent with their fiduciary duties to
take such actions. As long as the Purchasers or Affiliates thereof continue to
beneficially own in the aggregate not less than the Minimum Ownership
Percentage, in the event that the General Atlantic Designees shall cease to
serve as directors for any reason, the Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to cause any vacancy resulting thereby to be filled by another designee
of GAP LP.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Company shall provide such reimbursement and compensation to the
General Atlantic Designees as is consistent with the reimbursement and
compensation provided to other members of the Board of Directors.
24
(d) Subject to applicable securities laws and Nasdaq
regulations, each committee of the Board of Directors shall include the General
Atlantic Designees.
(e) As long as the Purchasers or Affiliates thereof continue
to beneficially own in the aggregate not less than the Minimum Ownership
Percentage, GAP LP shall have the right to designate one observer who shall have
the right to attend all regular, special and telephonic meetings of the Board of
Directors, except to the extent that such attendance would negate any
attorney-client privilege.
8.5 OFFERING NOTICE; PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS; EXERCISE; CLOSING.
(a) Except for (i) Common Stock or options to acquire Common
Stock issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plans or issued to employees,
directors or officers of, or consultants to, the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries pursuant to any compensatory plan, agreement or arrangement
approved by the Board of Directors and by a majority of the members of the Board
of Directors who are not employees of the Company or a Subsidiary of the
Company, (ii) a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) capital stock issued
upon exercise, conversion or exchange of any Stock Equivalent (including the
Warrants) previously issued, and (iv) capital stock or securities convertible
into capital stock of the Company issued in consideration of an acquisition of
any Person, approved by the Board of Directors, by the Company of another Person
((i)-(iv) being referred to collectively as "EXEMPT ISSUANCES"), if the Company
wishes to issue any capital stock or any other securities convertible into or
exchangeable for capital stock of the Company pursuant to a private placement
exempt from registration under the Securities Act (collectively, "NEW
SECURITIES") to any Person (the "SUBJECT PURCHASER"), then the Company shall
offer such New Securities first to the Purchasers by sending written notice (the
"NEW ISSUANCE NOTICE") to the Purchasers, which New Issuance Notice shall state
(x) the number of New Securities proposed to be issued and (y) the proposed
purchase price, or mechanism for determining the proposed purchase price, per
security of the New Securities (as calculated, the "PROPOSED PRICE"). Upon
delivery of the New Issuance Notice, such offer shall be irrevocable unless and
until the rights provided for in Section 8.5(b) shall have been waived or shall
have expired.
(b) For a period of five (5) Business Days after the giving of
a New Issuance Notice, each of the Purchasers shall have the right to purchase
up to its Proportionate Percentage (as hereinafter defined) of the New
Securities at a purchase price equal to the Proposed Price and upon the same
terms and conditions set forth in the New Issuance Notice. Each Purchaser shall
have the right to purchase up to that percentage of the New Securities
determined by dividing (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock (assuming
the exercise of all of the Purchased Warrants) beneficially owned by such
Purchaser exercising its rights under this Section 8.5 by (y) the total number
of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming the exercise of all of the
Purchased Warrants) (the "Proportionate Percentage"). If any Purchaser does not
fully subscribe for the number or amount of New Securities that it or he is
entitled to purchase pursuant to the preceding sentence, then each Purchaser
which elected to purchase New
25
Securities shall have the right to purchase that percentage of the remaining New
Securities not so subscribed for (for the purposes of this Section 8.5, the
"Excess New Securities") determined by dividing (x) the total number of shares
of Common Stock (assuming the exercise of all of the Purchased Warrants) then
beneficially owned by such participating Purchaser by (y) the total number of
shares of Common Stock (assuming the exercise of all of the Purchased Warrants)
then beneficially owned by all participating Purchasers who elected to purchase
Excess New Securities. The Purchasers may transfer all or any portion of their
rights pursuant to this Section 8.5 to any Affiliate thereof.
(c) The right of the Purchasers to purchase the New Securities
under subsection (b) above shall be exercisable by delivering written notice of
the exercise thereof, prior to the expiration of the 5 Business Day period
referred to in subsection (b) above, to the Company, which notice shall state
the amount of New Securities that such Purchaser elects to purchase pursuant to
Section 8.5(b). The failure of the Purchasers to respond within such 5 Business
Day period shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Purchasers' rights under
Section 8.5(b), provided that the Purchasers may waive their rights under
Section 8.5(b) prior to the expiration of such 5 Business Day period by giving
written notice to the Company. In the event that the aggregate number of New
Securities elected to be purchased by the Purchasers exceeds the total number of
New Securities, each Purchaser who has elected to purchase New Securities shall
be entitled to purchase only that portion of the New Securities as the number of
New Securities elected to be purchased by such Purchaser bears to the total
number of New Securities elected to be purchased by all Purchasers, subject to
rounding by the Board of Directors to the extent it deems reasonably necessary.
(d) The closing of the purchase of New Securities subscribed
for by the Purchasers under this Section 8.5 shall be held at the executive
office of the Company at 11:00 a.m., local time, on (a) the 15th day after the
giving of the New Issuance Notice pursuant to Section 8.5(a), if the Purchasers
elect to purchase all of the New Securities under this Section 8.5, (b) the date
of the closing of the sale to the Subject Purchaser or Subject Purchasers if the
Purchasers elect to purchase some, but not all, of the New Securities under this
Section 8.5 or (c) at such other time and place as the parties to the
transaction may agree. At such closing, such New Securities shall be issued free
and clear of all Liens (other than those arising hereunder and those
attributable to actions by the purchasers thereof) and the Company shall so
represent and warrant, and further represent and warrant that such New
Securities shall be, upon issuance thereof to the Purchasers and after payment
therefor, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The
Company shall deliver certificates representing the New Securities no later than
five (5) Business Days after such closing. The Purchasers shall deliver at the
closing payment in full in immediately available funds for the New Securities
purchased by them. At such closing, all of the parties to the transaction shall
execute such additional documents as are otherwise necessary or appropriate.
Nothing in this Section 8.5 shall prevent or delay the Company from consummating
the closing of the issuance and sale of the New Securities to any Subject
Purchaser; provided that the Company complies with its obligations under this
Section 8.5.

shall relieve the Company from liability for actual damages resulting from a
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(c) and nothing shall
relieve the Purchasers from liability for actual damages resulting from a
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(d); and PROVIDED, FURTHER,
that none of the parties hereto shall have any liability for speculative,
indirect, unforeseeable or consequential damages or lost profits resulting from
any legal action relating to any termination of this Agreement.
