indemnified person, at any time or from time to time, it will promptly
reimburse such indemnified person for any loss, claim, damage, liability,

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 6(A), any such
payment or reimbursement by the Company of fees, expenses or
disbursements incurred by an indemnified person in any proceeding in
which a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (after all

Placement Agent or such indemnified person based upon specific finding of
fact that the Placement Agent or such indemnified person's gross
negligence or willful misfeasance will be promptly repaid to the Company.
B. The Placement Agent hereby agrees that it will indemnify and hold the
Company and each officer, director, shareholder, employee or
representative of the Company, and each person controlling, controlled by
or under common control with the Company within the meaning of Section 15
of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act or the Rules and
Regulations, harmless from and against any and all loss, claim, damage,

incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or
defending any action, suit or proceeding, including any inquiry or
investigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever or in
appearing or preparing for appearance as a witness in any action, suit or
proceeding, including any inquiry, investigation or pretrial proceeding
such as a deposition) to which the Company or such indemnified person of
the Company may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, the
Rules and Regulations, or any other federal or state law or regulation,
common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon (i) the conduct of
the Placement Agent or its officers, employees or representatives in its
acting as Placement Agent for the Offering or (ii) the material breach of
any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Placement
Agent in this Agreement (iii) any false or misleading information
provided to the Company by one of the Placement Agent's indemnified
persons.
C. The Investor hereby agrees that it will indemnify and hold the Placement
Agent and each officer, director, shareholder, employee or representative
of the Placement Agent, and each person controlling, controlled by or
under common control with the Placement Agent within the meaning of
Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act or the Rules and
Regulations, harmless from and against any and all loss, claim, damage,

defending any action, suit or proceeding, including any inquiry or
investigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever or in
appearing or preparing for appearance as a witness in any action, suit or
proceeding, including any inquiry, investigation or pretrial proceeding
such as a deposition) to which the Placement Agent or such indemnified
person of the Placement Agent may become subject under the 1933 Act, the
1934 Act, the Rules and Regulations, or any other federal or state law or
regulation, common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon (i) the
conduct of the Investor or its officers, employees or representatives in

of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the
Investor in the Offering Materials (iii) any false or misleading
information provided to the Placement Agent by one of the Investor's
indemnified persons.
D. The Placement Agent hereby agrees that it will indemnify and hold the
Investor and each officer, director, shareholder, employee or
representative of the Investor, and each person controlling, controlled
by or under common control with the Investor within the meaning of
Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act or the Rules and
Regulations, harmless from and against any and all loss, claim, damage,
liability, cost or expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any
and all reasonable legal fees and other expenses and disbursements
incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or
defending any action, suit or proceeding, including any inquiry or
investigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever or in
appearing or preparing for appearance as a witness in any action, suit or
proceeding, including any inquiry, investigation or pretrial proceeding
such as a deposition) to which the Investor or such indemnified person of
the Investor may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, the
Rules and Regulations, or any other federal or state law or regulation,
common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon (i) the conduct of
the Placement Agent or its officers, employees or representatives in its
acting as the Placement Agent for the Offering or (ii) the material
breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the
Placement Agent in this Agreement (iii) any false or misleading
information provided to the Investor by one of the Placement Agent's
indemnified persons.
E. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of commencement
of any action covered by Section 6(A), (B), (C) or (D), the party to be
indemnified shall, within five (5) business days, notify the indemnifying
party of the commencement thereof; the omission by one (1) indemnified
party to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the
indemnifying party of its obligation to indemnify any other indemnified
party that has given such notice and shall not relieve the indemnifying
party of any liability outside of this indemnification if not materially
prejudiced thereby. In the event that any action is brought against the
indemnified party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent it may desire, to assume and control the
defense thereof with counsel chosen by it which is reasonably acceptable
to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to
such indemnified party of its election to so assume the defense thereof,
the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under
such Section 6(A), (B), (C), or (D) for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, but the
indemnified party may, at its own expense, participate in such defense by
counsel chosen by it, without, however, impairing the indemnifying
party's control of the defense. Subject to the proviso of this sentence
and notwithstanding any other statement to the contrary contained herein,
the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to choose its or
their own counsel and control the defense of any action, all at the
expense of the indemnifying party if, (i) the employment of such counsel
shall have been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party in
connection with the defense of such action at the expense of the
indemnifying party, or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have
employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party to
have charge of the defense of such action within a reasonable time after
notice of commencement of the action, or (iii) such indemnified party or
parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses
available to it or them which are different from or additional to those
available to one or all of the indemnifying parties (in which case the
indemnifying parties shall not have the right to direct the defense of
such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of
which events such fees and expenses of one additional counsel shall be
borne by the indemnifying party; provided, however, that the indemnifying
party shall not, in connection with any one action or separate but
substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising
out of the same general allegations or circumstance, be liable for the
reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys
at any time for all such indemnified parties. No settlement of any action
or proceeding against an indemnified party shall be made without the
consent of the indemnifying party.
F. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances
in which the indemnification provided for in Section 6(A) or 7(B) is due
in accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by a court to be
unavailable on grounds of policy or otherwise, the Company and the
Placement Agent shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages
and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with the investigation or defense of same) which the other may
incur in such proportion so that the Placement Agent shall be responsible
for such percent of the aggregate of such losses, claims, damages and
liabilities as shall equal the percentage of the gross proceeds paid to
the Placement Agent and the Company shall be responsible for the balance;
provided, however, that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6(F), any person
controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Placement
Agent, or any partner, director, officer, employee, representative or any
agent of any thereof, shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Placement Agent and each person controlling, controlled by or under
common control with the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each officer of the Company
and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to
contribution as the Company. Any party entitled to contribution will,
promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or
proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for
contribution may be made against the other party under this Section 6(D),
notify such party from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission
to so notify such party shall not relieve the party from whom
contribution may be sought from any obligation they may have hereunder or
otherwise if the party from whom contribution may be sought is not
materially prejudiced thereby. The indemnity and contribution agreements
contained in this Section 6 shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any
indemnified person or any termination of this Agreement.
7. PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. The Company hereby agrees to bear all of the
expenses in connection with the Offering, including, but not limited to
the following: filing fees, printing and duplicating costs,
advertisements, postage and mailing expenses with respect to the
transmission of Offering Materials, registrar and transfer agent fees,
and expenses, fees of the Company's counsel and accountants, issue and
transfer taxes, if any.

Investor or its counsel. The obligations of the Placement Agent hereunder
