The Company will, from time to time, prepare and file such statements, reports, and other documents, as are or may be required to continue such qualifications in effect for so long a period as the Initial Purchaser may reasonably request for distribution of the Securities.

(d) If at any time prior to the date on which all of the Securities shall have been sold by the Initial Purchaser, any event shall occur as a result of which, in the judgment of the Company or in the reasonable opinion of the Initial Purchaser, it becomes necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or, if it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum to comply with applicable law, the Company will promptly prepare an appropriate amendment or supplement to the Offering Memorandum so that the Offering Memorandum as so amended or supplemented will not contain statements that, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, are misleading, or so that the Offering Memorandum will comply with applicable law.

(e) No offering, sale, short sale or other disposition of any shares of Common Stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock or derivative of Common Stock (or agreement for such) will be made for a period of 90 days after the date of the Offering Memorandum, directly or indirectly, by the Company otherwise than hereunder or with the prior written consent of the Initial Purchaser.

(g) The Company will not, nor will it permit any of its Affiliates (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act) to, during the two-year period following the closing of the Offering, resell any Securities that have been acquired by any of them, other than pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

(h) Except as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, neither the Company, nor any of its respective Affiliates, nor any authorized person acting on its or their behalf will, directly or indirectly, make offers or sales of any security, or solicit offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require the registration of the Securities or the Underlying Securities issuable upon conversion thereof under the Securities Act.

(i) Neither the Company nor any of its respective Affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf will engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act) in connection with any offer or sale of the Securities in the United States.

(j) So long as any of the Securities or the Underlying Securities issuable upon conversion thereof are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, the Company will, during any period in which it is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, provide to each holder of such restricted securities and to each prospective purchaser (as designated by such holder) of such restricted securities, upon the request of such holder or prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. This covenant is intended to be for the benefit of the holders, and the prospective purchasers designated by such holders, from time to time of such restricted securities.

(k) The Company will cooperate with the Initial Purchaser and use all reasonable efforts to (i) permit the Securities to be eligible for clearance and settlement through the facilities of DTC and such other clearance and settlement systems that the Initial Purchaser may designate and (ii) arrange to have the Securities be designated as PORTAL-eligible securities in accordance with the rules and regulations of the NASD relating to the PORTAL Market.

(l) The Company will use all reasonable efforts to cause the Underlying Securities issuable upon conversion of the Securities to be duly authorized for listing by the Nasdaq National Market on or prior to the Closing Date and ensure that the Underlying Securities issuable upon conversion of the Securities remain authorized for listing following the Closing Date.

-14-

(m) The Company shall apply the net proceeds of its sale of the Securities as set forth in the Offering Memorandum.

(n) The Company shall not invest, or otherwise use the proceeds received by the Company from its sale of the Securities in such a manner as would require the Company to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act.

(o) The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or result in, or that has constituted or could reasonably be expected to constitute, the unlawful stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company.

7. INDEMNIFICATION.

(a) The Company agrees:

(i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Initial Purchaser or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Offering Document or any amendment or supplement thereto or (B) 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were made; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable under this subsection (a) to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission made in the Offering Document, or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser specifically for use therein; and

(ii) to reimburse the Initial Purchaser and each such controlling person upon demand for any legal or other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchaser or such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage or liability, action or proceeding referenced in

-21-

Section 7(a)(i) above, or in responding to a subpoena or governmental inquiry related to the offering of the Securities, whether or not the Initial Purchaser or controlling person is a party to any action or proceeding. In the event that it is finally judicially determined that the Initial Purchaser was not entitled to receive payments for legal and other expenses pursuant to this subparagraph, the Initial Purchaser will promptly return all sums that had been advanced pursuant hereto.

(b) The Initial Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Offering Document or any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made; and will reimburse upon demand any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding or in responding to a subpoena or governmental inquiry related to the offering of the Securities, whether or not the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person is a party to any action or proceeding; provided, however, that the Initial Purchaser will be liable in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission has been made in the Offering Document or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser specifically for use therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section 7, such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing. No indemnification provided for in Section 7(a) or (b) shall be available to any party who shall fail to give notice as provided in this Section 7(c) if the party to whom notice was not given was unaware of the proceeding to which such notice would have related and was materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice, but the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party or parties from any liability which it or they may have to the indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than on account of the provisions of Section 7(a) or (b). In case any such proceeding 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 participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and shall pay as incurred (or within 30 days of presentation) the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain

-22-

its own counsel at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall pay as incurred (or within 30 days of presentation) the fees and expenses of the counsel retained by the indemnified party in the event (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party within a reasonable period of time after notice of commencement of the action. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for all such indemnified parties. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Initial Purchaser in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(a) and by the Company in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. In addition, the indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (if the indemnified party is an actual or is a reasonably likely potential party to such claim, action or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 7(a) or 7(b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, except by reason of the exceptions set forth in Section 7(a) or 7(b) or the failure of the indemnified party to give notice as required in Section 7(c), then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchaser on the other from the offering of the Securities. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchaser on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchaser. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to

-23-

information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Initial Purchaser on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Initial Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 7(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 7(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim or enforcing any rights hereunder. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), (i) the Initial Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the discounts and commissions applicable to the Securities purchased by it and (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) In any proceeding relating to the Offering Document or any supplement or amendment thereto, each party against whom contribution may be sought under this Section 7 hereby consents to the jurisdiction of any court having jurisdiction over any other contributing party, agrees that process issuing from such court may be served upon it by any other contributing party and consents to the service of such process and agrees that any other contributing party may join it as an additional defendant in any such proceeding in which such other contributing party is a party.

(f) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section 7 shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred (or within 30 days of presentation). The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7 and the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser or any person controlling the Initial Purchaser, the Company, their respective directors or officers or any persons controlling the Company, (ii) acceptance of any Securities and payment therefor hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. A successor to the Initial Purchaser, or any person controlling the Initial Purchaser, or to the Company, their respective directors or officers, or any person controlling the Company, shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section 7.
