or claims.

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE

STATES. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED,

REGISTRATION OTHER THAN PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS. IN ADDITION, THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY

COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE CORPORATION AT ITS

After the above requirement for a legend is no longer applicable with respect to
all or any of the Shares because the applicable Shares are freely transferable

a holder of the applicable Shares, if outside counsel for such holder reasonably
determines that the transfer of such Shares is no longer restricted by the

with copies of any agreement signed and delivered after the date hereof between
the Company and any purchaser of such additional shares of Series A Preferred
Stock which grants such purchaser rights which are greater than or in any
respect more favorable to such investor than the rights granted to the

to cause any provision of any such agreement to become effective as to such

identical to those granted to holders of Common Stock having such rights on the

ARTICLE VIII
MISCELLANEOUS
8.1 SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for one year
except (i) covenants and agreements that are required to be performed after the
Closing Date which shall survive according to their terms; (ii) Sections 3.1,
3.2(a) and 3.3 which shall survive indefinitely; and (iii) representations and
warranties contained in Sections 3.19(b), 3.19(d) and 3.21 which shall survive
until the respective statutes of limitations run; provided, however, that in no
event shall any representations or warranties contained in this Agreement
survive past the Company's first underwritten public offering of securities.
(b) Indemnification by the Company. The Company (the "Company
Indemnitor") shall indemnify and hold the Purchasers and their stockholders,
directors, officers and employees, if any (collectively, the "Purchaser
Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against, and agree to promptly defend
each of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and reimburse each of the
Purchaser Indemnified Parties for, any and all losses, damages, costs, expenses,
liabilities, obligations and claims of any kind (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys fees) (collectively, a "Loss") that any of the Purchaser
Indemnified Parties may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a
result of or in connection with any breach or inaccuracy of any representations
and warranties made by the
27
28
Company in this Agreement, or in any certificate or affidavit delivered by the
same at the Closing in accordance with the provisions hereof.
(c) Indemnification by the Purchasers. Each Purchaser (each, a
"Purchaser Indemnitor" and together with the Company Indemnitor, the
"Indemnitors") shall indemnify and hold the Company and its stockholders,
directors, officers and employees (collectively, the "Company Indemnified
Parties" and together with the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, the "Indemnified
Parties") harmless from and against, and agree to promptly defend each of the
Company Indemnified Parties from and reimburse each of the Company Indemnified
Parties for, any and all Losses that any of the Company Indemnified Parties may
at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of or in
connection with any breach or inaccuracy of any representations and warranties
made by such Purchaser in this Agreement.
(d) Notification of Claims: Election to Defend.
(i) An Indemnified Party entitled to be indemnified by the Indemnitors
pursuant to either Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(c) hereof shall notify its
respective Indemnitor in writing of any claim or demand (a "Claim") that
the Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a
right of indemnification under this Agreement promptly after the
Indemnified Party determines that the Claim exists. The Indemnified Party's
failure to promptly notify the Indemnitor of any such Claim shall not
relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnity obligations under this Agreement,
except to the extent the delay in giving notice of the Claim beyond the
time required materially prejudices the Indemnitor. The amount and
liability for a Claim contained in a notice of Claim shall be deemed final
unless the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within
thirty (30) days of its receipt of such written notice that it disputes
such Claim. Subject to the Indemnitor's right to defend in good faith third
party claims as hereinafter provided, the Indemnitor shall satisfy its
obligations under this Section 8.1 within thirty (30) days after any such
loss is deemed final. Any amounts paid thereafter shall include interest
thereon for the period commencing at the end of such 30-day period and
ending on the actual date of payment, at a rate equal to the prime rate
announced from time to time by Citibank, N.A. plus one percent (1%) per
annum, or, if lower, at the highest rate of interest permitted by
applicable law at the time of such payment (the "Rate").
(ii) If the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnitor of any Claim
pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(i) hereof, and if such Claim relates to a Claim
asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party that the Indemnitor
acknowledges is a Claim for which it must indemnify or hold harmless the
Indemnified Party under Sections 8.1(d) hereof, the Indemnitor shall have
the right, at its sole cost and expense, to employ counsel of its own
choosing to defend any such Claim asserted against the Indemnified Party.
The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of
any such Claim at its own expense (except as provided in Section
8.1(d)(iii) hereto), but the Indemnitor shall retain control over such
litigation (except as provided
28
29
in Section 8.1(d)(iii) hereto). The Indemnitor shall notify the Indemnified
Party in writing, as promptly as possible (but in any case before the due
date for the answer or response to a claim) after the date of the notice of
claim given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnitor under Sections
8.1(d)(i) hereof of its election to defend in good faith any such third
party Claim. The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such
Claim asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party without the
prior written consent of the Indemnitor. The Indemnified Party shall
cooperate with the Indemnitor in connection with any such defense and shall
make available to the Indemnitor or its agents all records and other
materials in the Indemnified Party's possession reasonably required by it
for its use in contesting any third party Claim; provided, however, that
the Indemnitor shall have agreed, in writing, to keep such records and
other materials confidential except to the extent required for defending
the relevant Claim. Whether or not the Indemnitor elects to defend any such
Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have no obligations to do so. Within
thirty (30) days after a final determination (including, without
limitation, a settlement) has been reached with respect to any Claim
contested pursuant to this Section 8.1(d)(ii), the Indemnitor shall satisfy
its obligations with respect thereto. Any amounts paid thereafter shall
include interest thereon for the period commencing at the end of such
30-day period and ending on the actual date of payment, at the Rate.
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnified Party (x)
reasonably believes that its interests with respect to a Claim (or any
material portion thereof) are in conflict with the interests of the
Indemnitor with respect to such Claim (or portion thereof), and (y)
promptly notifies the Indemnitor, in writing, of the nature of such
conflict, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to choose, at the
cost and expense of the Indemnitor, its own independent counsel to defend
the Indemnified Party in such Claim, provided that the Indemnitor shall
only be responsible for reasonable attorney's fees and expenses arising
from such litigation.
8.2 NOTICES.
All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals or other communications
(collectively, "Notices") required or permitted to be given hereunder or which
are given with respect to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
personally served, delivered by reputable air courier service with charges
prepaid, or transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, telex or facsimile,

given on the next business day following delivery of such notice to a reputable

of the Company and the Purchasers, (ii) if the Closing shall not have occurred
on or prior to the date which is seven days from the date hereof, by either the
Company or the Purchasers, at any time after such date, provided that the right
to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.4(a)(ii) shall not be available
to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement was
the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before
such date, (iii) if any Governmental Authority shall have issued a nonappealable

such termination shall be without liability of any party (or any stockholder,
director, officer, partner, employee, agent, consultant or representative of
such party) to any other party to this Agreement; provided that if such
termination shall result from the willful (a) failure of any party to fulfill a
condition to the performance of the obligations of the other party, (b) failure
to perform a covenant of this Agreement or (c) breach by any party hereto of any
representation or warranty contained herein, such failing or breaching party
shall be fully liable for any and all losses (excluding consequential damages)
incurred or suffered by the other party as a result of such failure or breach.

such party, and specifically refers to this Agreement. Waivers may be made in
advance or after the right waived has arisen or the breach or default waived has
occurred. Any waiver may be conditional. No waiver of any breach of any
