writing that such Person, as a holder of Restricted Securities, and the
Restricted Securities it acquires shall be bound by and be entitled to the
benefits of all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Restricted

provisions of this Agreement have been complied with.

The restrictions on transfer provided in Section 2.2 (a) shall not be
applicable to (i) any transfer in compliance with federal and all applicable
state securities laws to an Affiliate of the holder of Restricted Securities,
from an Affiliate of such holder to such holder or between Affiliates of such
holder (if any such Affiliate to whom shares of Restricted Securities have been
transferred by a holder thereof ceases to be an Affiliate of such holder of
Restricted Securities, such Restricted Securities shall immediately be
transferred back to the transferor thereof), (ii) any transfer upon the death of
any holder of Restricted Securities to such holder's executors, administrators
or testamentary trustees or (iii) any transfer to a trust the beneficiaries of
which include only the holder of such Restricted Securities or such holder's
spouse, parents, siblings or descendants (any transferee referred to in (i),
(ii) or (iii) above being referred to herein as a "Permitted Transferee");
PROVIDED that no such transfer shall be made to any Permitted Transferee unless
such Permitted Transferee shall have agreed in writing that such Permitted
Transferee, as a Stockholder or Warrantholder (as the case may be), and the
shares of Common Stock or Warrants it acquires shall be bound by and be entitled
to the benefits of all the provisions of this Agreements applicable to Common
Stock or Warrants (as the case may be), and upon such agreement such Permitted
Transferee shall be entitled to such benefits.
SECTION 2.4. TAG-ALONG RIGHTS.
If a Significant Stockholder Group (any such Person or group of such
Persons for purposes of Section 2.4, the "Transferor") wishes to transfer its
shares of Common Stock or any portion thereof to any Person (the "Transferee"),
the Transferor shall first give to Avatech and each Warrant Securityholder
(pursuant to a list provided by Avatech) a written notice (a "Transfer Notice"),
executed by it and the Transferee and containing (i) the number of shares of
Common Stock that the Transferee proposes to acquire from the Transferor, (ii)
the name and address of the Transferee, (iii) the proposed purchase price, terms
of payment and other material terms and conditions of such proposed transfer,
(iv) an estimate, in the Transferor's reasonable judgment, of the fair market
value of any non-cash consideration offered by the Transferee and (v) an offer
by the Transferee or Transferor to purchase, upon the purchase by the Transferee
of any shares of Common Stock owned by the Transferor and for the same per share
consideration, that number of Conversion Shares (or if such number is not an
integral number, the next
5
integral number which is greater that such number) of each Warrant
Securityholder which shall be the product of (x) the aggregate number of
Conversion Shares either then owned, or issuable upon exercise of Warrants then
owned, by such Warrant Securityholder and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock indicated in the Transfer Notice
as subject to purchase by the Transferee and the denominator of which shall be
the sum of (A) the total number of shares of Common Stock then owned by the
Transferor and its Affiliates plus (B) the total number of Conversion Shares
either then owned, or issuable upon exercise of Warrants then owned, by each
Warrant Securityholder. Each Warrant Securityholder shall have the right, for a
period of 20 days after the Transfer Notice is given, to accept such offer in
whole or in part, exercisable by delivering a written notice to the Transferor
and Avatech within such 20-day period, stating therein the number of shares of
Common Stock (which may be the number of shares set forth in the offer by the
Transferor or Transferee, as the case may be, or may be. Prior to the earlier of
(x) the end of such 20-day period or (y) the acceptance or rejection by each
Warrant Securityholder of the Transferee's or Transferor's offer, as the case
may be, neither the Transferor nor its Affiliates will complete any sale of
shares of Common Stock to the Transferee. Thereafter, for a period of 60 days
after the prohibition under the proceeding sentence shall have terminated, the
Transferor may sell to the Transferee for the consideration stated and on the
terms set forth in the Transfer Notice the shares of Common Stock stated in the
Transfer Notice as subject to purchase by the Transferee, PROVIDED that the
Transferor or Transferee, as the case may be, shall simultaneously purchase the
number of shares of Common Stock as calculated above from those Warrant
Securityholders who have accepted the Transferor's or Transferee's offer, as the
case may be. The provisions of this Section 2.4 shall not apply to transfers
between the Transferor and any of its Affiliates or between Affiliates of the
Transferor.
SECTION 2.5. DRAG-ALONG RIGHTS.
If at any time prior to an Initial Public Offering, a Significant
Stockholder Group with drag-along rights (any such Person or group of such
Persons for purposes of this Section 2.5, the "Transferor") wishes to transfer
all of the shares of Common Stock owned by it and its Affiliates (PROVIDED that
such shares of Common Stock constitute more than 50% of all shares of Common
Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis (as defined in the Warrants) at such time) in a
bona fide sale to any Person (the "Proposed Transferee") pursuant to which the
consideration to be paid by the Proposed Transferee consists solely of cash and
freely tradeable securities with an active public market and the Transferor and
its Affiliates will not receive, in connection with the transactions
contemplated at the time of such transfer, any other securities or options to
acquire securities of Avatech, then the Transferor shall have the right (the
"Drag-Along Right") to require each Warrant Securityholder to sell to the
Proposed Transferee for the same per share consideration received by the
Transferor all of the Conversion Shares and Warrants (calculated, in the case of
any Warrants, on the number of Conversion Shares for which such Warrant is
exercisable at such time) held by such Warrant Securityholder; PROVIDED that (a)
such price per share is not less than the Fair Market Value (as defined in the
Warrants) of Avatech per share of outstanding Common Stock on a Fully Diluted
Basis and (b) each Warrant Securityholder shall not be obligated to make any
representation or warranty, or incur any liability in connection with any such
transfer, other than as to its ownership of the Conversion Shares or Warrants
being transferred by it. To exercise the Drag-Along Right, the Transferor shall
first give to Avatech and each other Warrant Securityholder (pursuant to a list
provided by Avatech) a written notice (a "Drag-Along Notice") executed by the
Transferor and the Proposed Transferee and containing (a) the number of shares
of Common Stock that the Proposed Transferee proposes to acquire from the
Transferor and its Affiliates, and certifying that such shares constitute all of
the shares of Common Stock owned by the Transferor and its Affiliates and more
than 50% of the shares of Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis at such time,
(b) the name and address of the Proposed Transferee, (c) the proposed purchase
price (certifying that such price per share is not less than the Fair Market
Value of outstanding Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis), terms of
6
payment and other material terms and conditions of the Proposal Transferee's
offer, (d) a statement by the Proposed Transferee that the Proposed Transferee
(i) has been informed of the Drag-Along Right provided for in this Section 2.5
and (ii) has agreed to purchase the Conversion Shares in accordance with the
terms of this Section 2.5 and (e) the aggregate number of Conversion Shares or
Warrants owned by each Warrant Securityholder with respect to which the
Transferor wishes to exercise its Drag-Along Right pursuant to this Section 2.5.
Each Warrant Securityholder shall thereafter be obligated to sell to the
Proposed Transferee the Warrants and Conversion Shares subject to such
Drag-Along Notice, PROVIDED that the sale to the Proposed Transferee is
consummated within 60 days of delivery of the Drag-Along Notice. If the sale is
not consummated within such 60-day period, then each affected Warrant
Securityholder may sell, but shall no longer be obligated to sell, such Warrant
Securityholder's Warrants or Conversion Shares pursuant to such Drag-Along
Notice. The provisions of this Section 2.5 shall not apply to transfers between
the Transferor and any of its Affiliates or between any of its Affiliates.
SECTION 2.6. [RESERVED]
SECTION 2.7. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER BY REGULATED HOLDERS.
(a) Notwithstanding anything else set forth herein to the contrary, in
the event of any reasonable determination in good faith by any Regulated Holder
that, by reason of any Regulatory Requirement, such Regulated Holder is
effectively restricted or prohibited from holding, exercising or transferring
(as the case may be) any Warrant or Conversion Shares (or any portion thereof),
Avatech shall use reasonable good faith efforts to take such action as it may
determine is reasonably necessary and appropriate to permit such Regulated
Holder to hold, exercise or transfer (as the case may be) such Warrant or
Conversion Shares (or any portion thereof) in such manner as is necessary to
comply with such Regulatory Requirement. All such actions shall be taken at the
expense of Regulated Holder. Regulated Holder shall give written notice to
Avatech of any reasonable determination by it hereunder and the transfer or
other action it believes may be necessary or appropriate to permit it to comply
with such Regulatory Requirement. In the event of a Regulatory Change, the
effect of which is to permit such Regulation Holder to hold, exercise or
transfer such Warrant or Conversion Shares in any other manner, the foregoing
proviso shall be deemed modified to permit the holding, exercise or transfer of
such Warrant or Conversion Shares in such other manner.
(b) Nothing in this Agreement (including without limitation
Sections 2.4 and 2.5) shall require any Regulated Holder to make a transfer of
Warrants or Conversion Shares in a manner not permitted by Section 2.6(a) (an
"Impermissible Transfer"). If any provision of this Agreement (including without
limitation Sections 2.4 and 2.5) would otherwise require any Regulated Holder to
make an Impermissible Transfer as a condition precedent to making a transfer of
Warrants or Conversion Shares in a manner permitted by Section 2.6(a) (a
"Permissible Transfer"), then such Regulated Holder shall not be required to
make such Impermissible Transfer as a condition precedent to making such
Permissible Transfer.
SECTION 2.8. ADJUSTMENT EVENT FEE.
If (a) any Adjustment Event shall occur within 90 days after the Optional
Redemption Date and (b) the Consideration Per Share for such Adjustment Event is
greater than the Redemption Price Per Share then, immediately upon the
occurrence of such Adjustment Event, Avatech shall pay to each Warrant
Securityholder an amount equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of
Voting Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants of such Warrant
Securityholder that were redeemed and (y) the difference between the
Consideration Per Share for such Adjustment Event and the Redemption Price Per
Share paid to such Warrant Securityholder.
7

a single sale or a series of sales); or
(ii) assets of Avatech and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis are, directly or indirectly, sold, exchanged, leased, transferred or

of Persons; or
(c) the stockholders or directors of Avatech consummate a definitive
agreement or plan for any merger, consolidation, recapitalization,

representing in the aggregate a percentage of the total voting power entitled to
vote in the election of directors, managers or trustees of the corporation
surviving or resulting from such transaction greater than 75% of the percentage
of such total voting power with respect to Avatech represented by the Common
Stock held by such stockholders on the Optional Redemption Date; or
(d) the stockholders or directors of Avatech consummate a definitive
agreement or plan for the liquidation or dissolution of Avatech.
"Consideration Per Share" means:

or (b)(i) of the definition of Adjustment Event, the highest consideration
per share (if any) received by Avatech or any stockholder of Avatech from
the sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition by it of Common Stock in
connection with such Adjustment Event; and
(ii) in the case of any other Adjustment Event, the highest
consideration per share of Common Stock that would be received by any
stockholder of Avatech upon the disposition of all or substantially all of
the Common Stock or of the assets of Avatech (determined by reference to
all of the consideration received by the stockholders of Avatech (as

Avatech were liquidated immediately following receipt of the consideration
received by Avatech in connection with such Adjustment Event).
"Optional Redemption Date" means the date of any redemption of the Warrants
pursuant to Section 5.3 of the Warrants.
"Redemption Price Per Share" means the Optional Redemption Price (as

SECTION 2.9. NO RESTRICTIVE AGREEMENTS.
Avatech has not entered into and will not enter into any stockholders
rights agreement, registration rights agreement or similar arrangements the
performance by Avatech of the terms of which would in any manner restrict or
limit, or materially conflict with, the performance by Avatech of its
obligations under this Agreement.
ARTICLE III
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
SECTION 3.1. [RESERVED].
SECTION 3.2. INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION.
(a) If Avatech at any time proposes to register any of its securities
under the Securities Act (other than by a registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any
successor or similar forms) whether for its own account or for the account of
the holder or holders of shares other than Registrable Shares (any such shares
with respect to any registration, "Other Shares") requested to be included in
such registration by the holder or holders thereof, it will each such time give
prompt written notice to all Warrant Securityholders of its intention to do so
and of such holders' rights under the Section 3.2. Upon the written request of
any such holder made within 20 days after the receipt of any such notice (which
request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by
such holder and the intended method of disposition thereof), Avatech will use
its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all
Registrable Securities which Avatech has been so requested to register by the
holders thereof, to the extent requisite to permit the disposition (in
accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable
Securities so to be registered, by inclusion of such Registrable Securities in
the registration statement which covers the securities which Avatech proposes to
register; PROVIDED that if, at any time after giving written notice of its
intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the
registration statement filed in connection with such registration, Avatech shall
determine for any reason either not to register to delay registration of such
securities, Avatech may, at its election, give written notice of such
determination to each holder of Registrable Securities and, thereupon, (i) in
the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation
to register any Registration Expenses in connection therewith), and (ii) in the
case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay
registering any Registrable Securities, for the same period as the delay in
registering such other securities. Avatech will pay all Registration Expenses in
connection with each registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this
Section 3.2.
(b) If Avatech at any time proposes to register any of its securities
under the Securities Act as contemplated by Section 3.2 and such securities are
to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, Avatech will, if
requested by any holder of Registrable Securities as provided in this Section
3.2, use its best efforts to arrange for such underwriters to include all the
Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such holder among the
securities to be distributed by such underwriters, PROVIDED that if the managing
underwriter of such underwritten offering shall inform Avatech and holders of
the Registrable Securities requesting such registration and all other holders of
any other shares of Common Stock which shall have exercised, in respect of such
underwritten offering, registration rights comparable to the rights under this
Section 3.2 by letter of its belief that inclusion in such distribution of all
or a specified number of such securities proposed to be distributed by such
underwriters would interfere with the successful marketing of the securities
being distributed by such underwriters (such letter to state the
9
basis of such belief and the approximate number of such Registrable Securities
and such Other Shares proposed so to be registered which may be distributed
without such effect), then Avatech may, upon written notice to all holders of
such Registrable Securities and holders of such Other Shares, reduce PRO RATA
(if and to be extent stated by such managing underwriter to be necessary to
eliminate such effect) the number of such Registrable Securities and Other
Shares the registration of which shall have been requested by each holder
thereof so that the resultant aggregate number of such Registrable Securities
and Other Shares so included in such registration, together with the number of
securities to be included in such registration for the account of Avatech, shall
be equal to the number of shares stated in such managing underwriter's letter.
SECTION 3.3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
(a) If and whenever Avatech is required to effect the registration of
any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in Section 3.2.,
Avatech shall, as expeditiously as possible:
(i) prepare and (within 60 days after the end of the period
within which requests for registration may be given to Avatech or in any
event as soon thereafter as possible) file with the Commission the
requisite registration statement to effect such registration (including
such audited financial statements as may be required by the Securities Act)
and thereafter use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to
become and remain effective; PROVIDED that Avatech may discontinue any
registration of its securities which are not Registrable Securities at any
time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating
thereto; PROVIDED FURTHER that before filing such registration statement or
any amendments thereto, Avatech will furnish to the counsel selected by the
holders of Registrable Securities which are to be included in such
registration copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which
documents will be subject to the review of such counsel;
(ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration
statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act
with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement until the expiration of 90 days after such
registration statement becomes effective;
(iii) furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement and each underwriter, if any, of the securities
being sold by such seller such number of conformed copies of such
registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto
(in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the
prospectus contained in such registration statement (including each
preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus
filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents, as such
seller and underwriter, if any, may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned by such seller;
(iv) use its best efforts to register or qualify all Registrable
Securities and other securities covered by such registration statements
under blue sky or similar laws of such jurisdictions as any seller thereof
and any underwriter of the securities being sold by such seller shall
reasonably request, to keep such registrations or qualifications in effect
for so long as such registration statement remains in effect, and take any
other action which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such
seller and underwriter to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions
of the securities owned by such seller, except that Avatech shall not for
any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a
foreign corporation in any
10
jurisdiction wherein it would not but for the requirements of this
subdivision (iv) be obligated to be so qualified, to subject itself to
taxation in any such jurisdiction or to consent to general service of
process in any such jurisdiction;
(v) use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by
such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to
enable the seller or sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities;
(vi) notify the holders of Registrable Securities and the
managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, promptly and confirm such
advice in writing promptly thereafter:
(A) when the registration statement, the prospectus or any
prospectus supplement related thereto or post-effective amendment
to the registration statement has been filed, and, with respect to
the registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto,
when the same has become effective;
(B) of any request by the Commission for amendments or
supplements to the registration statement or the prospectus or for
additional information;
(C) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the registration or the initiation
of any proceedings by any Person for that purpose; and
(D) of the receipt by Avatech of any notification with
respect to the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable
Securities for sale under the securities or blue sky laws of any
jurisdiction or the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such
purpose;
(vii) notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon Avatech' discovery
that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the
prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect,
includes as untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then
existing, and at the request of any such seller promptly prepare and
furnish to such seller and each underwriter, if any, a reasonable number of
copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be
necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such
securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the
light of the circumstances then existing;
(viii) make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any
order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement at the
earliest possible moment;
(ix) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable
rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its security
holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering
the period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen months,
beginning with the first full calendar quarter after the effective date of
such registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the
provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act;
11
(x) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and
registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such
Registration Statement;
(xi) use its best efforts to list all Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement on any securities exchange on which
any of the Common Stock is then listed and, if not so listed, to be listed
on the NASD automated quotation system and, if listed on the NASD automated
quotation system, use its best efforts to secure designation of all such
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement as a NASDAQ
"national market system security" within the meaning of Rule 11Aa2-1 of the
Securities and Exchange Commission or, failing that, to secure NASDAQ
authorization for such Registrable Securities and, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, to arrange for at least two market makers to
register as such with respect to such Registrable Securities with the NASD;
and
(xii) use its best efforts to provide a CUSIP number for the
Registrable Securities, not later than the effective date of the
registration.
Avatech may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any
registration is being effected to furnish Avatech such information regarding
such seller and the distribution of such securities as Avatech may from time to
time reasonably request in writing for purposes of preparing the relevant
registration statement and amendments and supplements thereto.
(b) Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees by acquisition of such
Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of any notice from Avatech of the
occurrence of any event of the kind described in subdivision (vii) of Section
3.3(a), such holder will forthwith discontinue such holder's disposition of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement relating to such
Registrable Securities until such holder's receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by subdivision (vii) of Section
3.3(a). In the event Avatech shall give any such notice, the periods specified
in subdivision (ii) of Section 3.3(a) shall be extended by the length of the
period from and including the date when each seller of any Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement shall have received such
notice to the date on which each such seller has received the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by subdivision (vii) of Section
3.3(a).
(c) If any such registration or comparable statement to any holder of
Registrable Securities by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of
Avatech, then such holder shall have the right to require, in the event that
such reference to such holder by name or otherwise is not required by the
Securities Act or any similar federal statute then in force, the deletion of the
reference to such holder.
SECTION 3.4. UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS.
(a) [reserved];
(b) Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees by acquisition of such
Registrable Securities not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any
option for the purchase of, effect any public sale or distribution of or
otherwise dispose of any equity securities of Avatech, during the ten days prior
to and the 90 days after the effective date of any underwritten registration
pursuant to Section 3.2 has become effective, except as part of such
underwritten registration, whether or not such holder participates in such
registration, and except as otherwise permitted by the managing underwriter of
such underwriting (if any). Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees that
Avatech may instruct its transfer agent to place stop transfer notations in its
records to enforce this Section 3.4(b).
12
(c) [reserved];
(d) No Person may participate in any underwritten offering hereunder
unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person's securities on the basis
provided in any underwriting arrangements approved, subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, by the Person or a majority of the Persons entitled to
approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all agreements,
questionnaires, indemnities and other documents (other than powers of attorney)
required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
SECTION 3.5. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Avatech agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each holder of
Registrable Securities whose Registrable Securities are covered by any
registration statement, its directors and officers and each other Person, if
any, who controls such holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any such
indemnified party may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or
proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of
or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in any registration statement under which such
securities were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus,
final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, and Avatech will reimburse each such indemnified party
for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or
proceeding; PROVIDED that Avatech shall not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in
respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such
registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus,
summary prospectus, amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to Avatech by or on behalf of such holder
specifically for use in the preparation thereof. In addition, Avatech shall
indemnify any underwriter of such offering and each other Person, if any, who
controls any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act in
substantially the same manner and to substantially the same extent as the
indemnity herein provided to each Indemnified Party. Such indemnity shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
such holder or any such director, officer, underwriter or controlling person and
shall survive the transfer of such securities by such holder.
(b) Each prospective seller of Registrable Securities hereunder shall
indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set
forth in subdivision (a) of this Section 3.5) Avatech, each director of Avatech,
each officer of Avatech and each other person, if any, who controls Avatech
within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any statement or
alleged statement in or omission or alleged omission from such registration
statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus
contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, if such statement or
alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished to Avatech by or on behalf of
such seller specifically for use in the preparation of such registration
statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus,
amendment or supplement. Any such indemnity shall remain in full force and
effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Avatech or any
such director, officer or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of
such securities by such seller. The amount payable by any prospective seller of
Registrable Security with respect to the Indemnification set forth in this
subsection (b) in connection with any offering of securities will not exceed the
amount of net proceeds received by such prospective seller pursuant to such
offering.
13
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the
commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the
preceding subdivisions of this Section 3.5, such indemnified party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give
written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; PROVIDED that
the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not
relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding
subdivisions of this Section 3.5, except to the extent that the indemnifying
party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such
action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified
party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and
indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party
shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly
with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to the extent that the
indemnifying party may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal
or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the
defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the
indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement
of any such action which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from
all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. No indemnified party shall
consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of any such action
the defense of which has been assumed by an indemnifying party without the
consent of such indemnifying party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in the preceding subdivisions
of this Section 3.5 is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any
expense, loss, claim, damage or liability referred to therein, then each
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 expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (i) in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by Avatech on the one hand
and the holder or underwriter, as the case may be, on the other from the
distribution of the Registrable Securities 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 also the relative fault of Avatech on the one hand and of the holder
or underwriter, as the case may be, on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such expense, loss, damage or
liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
benefits received by Avatech on the one hand and the holder or underwriter, as
the case may be, on the other in connection with the distribution of the
Registrable Securities shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total
net proceeds received by Avatech from the initial sale of the Registrable
Securities by Avatech to the purchaser bear to the gain realized by the selling
holder or the underwriting discounts and commissions received by the
underwriter, as the case may be. The relative fault of Avatech on the one hand
and of the holder or underwriter, as the case may be, on the other shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact relates
to information supplied by Avatech, by the holder or by the underwriter and
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission; PROVIDED that the foregoing
contribution agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any indemnified party
if indemnification would be unavailable to such indemnified party by reason of
the proviso contained in the first sentence of subdivision (a) of this Section
3.5, and in no event shall the obligation of any indemnifying party to
contribute under this subdivision (d) exceed the amount that such indemnifying
party would have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if the
indemnification provided for under subdivisions (a) or (b) of this Section 3.5
had been available under the circumstances.
Avatech and the holders of Registrable Securities agree that it would not
be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subdivision (d) were
determined by PRO RATA allocation (even if the holders
14
and any underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or any other
method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph and subdivision (c) of this
Section 3.5 The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of
the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this subdivision (d), no holder of
Registrable Securities or underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount
in excess of the amount by which (i) in the case of any such holder, the net
proceeds received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities or (ii)
in the case of an underwriter, the total price at which the Registrable
Securities purchased by it and distributed to the public were offered to the
public exceeds, in any such case, the amount of any damages that such holder or
underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or
alleged untrue statement or 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.
