-------------------------------------
will not effect any disposition of the Shares or its right to purchase the
Shares that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the Securities Act,
except as contemplated in the Registration Statement
12
referred to in Section 7.1, and that it will promptly notify the Company of any
changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding the
Purchaser or its plan of distribution.
7.3 Indemnification. For the purpose of this Section 7.3:
---------------
(i) the term "Purchaser/Affiliate" shall mean the Purchaser and any
person who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act; and
(ii) the term "Registration Statement" shall include any final
prospectus, exhibit, supplement or amendment included in or
relating to the Registration Statement referred to in Section

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the
Purchasers and each Purchaser/Affiliate, against any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses, joint or several, to which such
Purchasers or such Purchaser/Affiliate may become subject, under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state
statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including
in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with
the written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as
contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained
in the Registration Statement, including the prospectus, financial
statements and schedules, and all other documents filed as a part
thereof, as amended at the time of effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, including any information deemed to be a part thereof as of
the time of effectiveness pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 430A, or
pursuant to Rule 434, of the Rules and Regulations, or the prospectus,
in the form first filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of
the Regulations, or filed as part of the Registration Statement at the
time of effectiveness if no Rule 424(b) filing is required (the
"Prospectus"), or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of
or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in any of
them a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements in any of them not misleading in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, or arise out of or are based
in whole or in part on any inaccuracy in the representations and
warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement, or any failure
of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or under law, and
will reimburse the Purchaser and each such Purchaser/Affiliate for any
legal and other expenses as such expenses are reasonably incurred by
such Purchaser or such Purchaser/Affiliate in connection with
investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such
loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however,
that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of
or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement,
the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by
the Purchaser expressly for use therein, or (ii) the failure of such
Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in
Sections 5(b) or 7.2 hereof re-
13
specting the sale of the Shares, or (iii) the inaccuracy of any
representations made by such Purchaser herein or (iv) any statement or
omission in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent
Prospectus that was delivered to the Purchaser prior to the pertinent
sale or sales by the Purchaser.
(b) Each of the Purchasers will severally indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the
Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Securities Act against any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company, each of
its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration
Statement or controlling person may become subject, under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state
statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including
in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with
the written consent of such Purchaser) insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as
contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon (i) any failure to
comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Sections 5(b) or
7.2 hereof respecting the sale of the Shares or (ii) the inaccuracy of
any representation made by such Purchaser herein or (iii) any untrue
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in
each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
was made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of
any Purchaser expressly for use therein, and will reimburse the
Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the
Registration Statement or controlling person for any legal and other
expense reasonably incurred by the Company, each of its directors,
each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or
controlling person in connection with investigating, defending,
settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, expense or action.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7.3
of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, such
indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made
against an indemnifying party under this Section 7.3 promptly notify
the indemnifying party in writing thereof; but the omission so to
notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability
which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or
otherwise than under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section
7.3 or to the extent it is not prejudiced as a result of such failure.
In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and
such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an
indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all
other indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense
thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include
both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemni-
14
fied party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a
conflict between the positions of the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that
there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified
parties which are different from or additional to those available to
the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have
the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and
to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of
such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified
party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section 7.3 for any legal or other
expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have
employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal
defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it
being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be
liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by
such indemnifying party in the case of paragraph (a), representing all
of the indemnified parties who are parties to such action, or (ii) the
indemnified party shall not have employed counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified
party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of action,
in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel
shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is required by
its terms but is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under paragraphs
(a), (b) or (c) of this Section 7.3 in respect to any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each
applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein (i) in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the Company and the Purchaser from the placement of Common Stock or
(ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted
by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not
only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but the
relative fault of the Company and the Purchaser in connection with the
statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and
warranties in this Agreement that resulted in such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the
Company on the one hand and each Purchaser on the other shall be
deemed to be in the same proportion as the amount paid by such
Purchaser to the Company pursuant to this Agreement for the Shares
purchased by such Purchaser that were sold pursuant to the
Registration Statement bears to the difference (the "Difference")
between the amount such Purchaser paid for the Shares that were sold
pursuant to the Registration Statement and the amount received by such
Purchaser from such sale. The relative fault of the Company on the one
hand and each Purchaser on the other shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged statement of a
material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact or the inaccurate or the alleged inaccurate representation and/or
war-
15
ranty relates to information supplied by the Company or by such
Purchaser and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above
shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in
paragraph (c) of this Section 7.3, any legal or other fees or expenses
reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or
defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in paragraph
(c) of this Section 7.3 with respect to the notice of the threat or
commencement of any threat or action shall apply if a claim for
contribution is to be made under this paragraph (d); provided,
however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to
any threat or action for which notice has been given under paragraph
(c) for purposes of indemnification. The Company and each Purchaser
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant
to this Section 7.3 were determined solely by pro rata allocation
(even if the Purchaser were treated as one entity for such purpose) or
by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.3, no Purchaser shall
be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which
the Difference exceeds the amount of any damages that such Purchaser
has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
The Purchasers' obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7.3 are
several and not joint.
7.4 Termination of Conditions and Obligations. The restrictions imposed
-----------------------------------------
by Section 5 or this Section 7 upon the transferability of the Shares shall
cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Shares on the date all
such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k) or at such time as an
opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and substance to the Company shall have
been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to
comply with the Securities Act.
7.5 Information Available. So long as the Registration Statement is
---------------------
effective covering the resale of Shares owned by the Purchaser, the Company will
furnish to the Purchaser:
(a) as soon as practicable after available (but in the case of the
Company's Annual Report to Stockholders, within 120 days after the end
of each fiscal year of the Company), one copy of (i) its Annual Report

statements audited in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles by a national firm of certified public accountants), (ii)
if not included in substance in the Annual Report to Stockholders, its
Annual Report on Form 10-K, (iii) its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q,
(iv) its Current Reports on Form 8-K, and (v) a full copy of the
particular Registration Statement covering the Shares (the foregoing,
in each case, excluding exhibits);
16
(b) upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, all exhibits excluded by
the parenthetical to subparagraph (a)(v) of this Section 7.5;
(c) upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, a reasonable number of
copies of the prospectuses to supply to any other party requiring such
prospectuses; and
(d) upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, the Company will meet
with the Purchaser or a representative thereof at the Company's
headquarters to discuss information relevant for disclosure in the
Registration Statement covering the Shares, subject to appropriate
confidentiality limitations as the Company may reasonably require.
SECTION 8. Broker's Fee. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company
------------
intends to pay to the Placement Agent a fee in respect of the sale of the Shares
to the Purchaser and that the Placement Agent intends to enter into agreements
with the parties listed on Exhibit A attached hereto, and that such parties may

of the parties hereto hereby represents that, on the basis of any actions and
agreements by it, there are no other brokers or finders entitled to compensation
in connection with the sale of the Shares to the Purchaser.

------------
Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
