to be so on identical terms immediately following the Closing Date except as
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,

ARTICLE VI
INDEMNIFICATION
---------------
6.1 Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided in this Article VII,
---------------
the Company (the "Indemnifying Party") agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless each of the Purchasers and its Affiliates and their respective
officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners, members,
attorneys, accountants, 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 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 Indemnifying
Party and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party and any third
party or otherwise) 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 or the other Transaction Documents;
provided however, that if and to the extent that such indemnification is
-------- -------
unenforceable for any reason, the Indemnifying Party shall make the maximum
contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such Losses which shall be
permissible under applicable laws. The amount of any payment to any Indemnified
Party herewith in respect of any Loss shall be of sufficient amount to make such
Indemnified Party whole for any diminution in value of the securities purchased
hereunder below the Purchase Price hereof. 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
23
(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) 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 the Losses in question resulted primarily from the
willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party.
6.2 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 Party 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 the 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 its own expense, with counsel
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in its reasonable judgment; provided,
--------
however, 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 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 Party 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 in any one legal action or
group of related legal actions and (ii) shall reimburse the Indemnified Parties
for all of such fees and expenses of such counsel incurred in any action between
the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties or between the Indemnified
Parties and any third party, as such 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.
24
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.
6.3 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article
------------
VII from the Indemnifying Party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder
in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then the 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 the 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, subject to
the limitations set forth in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, any legal or other fees,
charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any
investigation or proceeding.

Shares shall, upon such approval, be duly authorized and, when issued or
delivered in accordance with the Certificate of Designations or the Warrants, as
applicable, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Company
shall issue such shares of Common Stock and Warrant Shares, in accordance with
the terms of the Certificate of Designations or the Warrants, as applicable, and
otherwise comply with the terms hereof and thereof.
7.4 Most Favored Nation Clause. If the Company issues additional shares
--------------------------
of convertible preferred stock and/or warrants (or similar securities) within
180 days following the date of this Agreement and, in connection with such
issuance, grants to any Person rights or terms that are in any manner more
favorable to the holder(s) of such securities than the rights or terms granted
to the Purchasers under this Agreement, the Certificate of Designations, the
Warrants or the other Transaction Documents, then the applicable documentation
shall, at the option of each Purchaser, be amended promptly to provide such
Purchaser (or any permitted transferees of such Purchaser) with any of such more
favorable terms as such Purchaser (or such transferees) elect to include
therein, except that the following terms shall not be subject to amendment
pursuant to this Section 7.4: (i) the initial conversion price of the Preferred
Stock, if such amendment would stem solely from a change in the Market Price of
the Company's Common Stock due to the fact that the issuance took place on a
later date,
26
(ii) the initial exercise price of the Warrants, if such amendment would stem
solely from a change in the Market Price of the Company's Common Stock due to
the fact that the issuance took place on a later date, (iii) the mandatory
redemption date of the Preferred Stock, and (iv) the expiration date of the
Warrants.
7.5 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 in accordance with GAAP
consistently applied.
7.6 Inspection. The Company shall permit representatives of the
----------
Purchasers to visit and inspect any of its properties, to examine its corporate,
financial and operating records and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom,
and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with their respective
directors, officers and independent public accountants, all at such reasonable
times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably requested
upon reasonable advance notice to the Company; provided, however, that no such
-------- -------
inspection, examination or inquiry, the failure to conduct same, nor any
knowledge of any Purchaser, including any knowledge obtained by such Purchaser
in connection with any such inspection, investigation or inquiry, shall
constitute a waiver of any rights Purchaser may have under any representation,
warranty, covenant, term or agreement under any of the Transaction Documents.
