(4) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and
the consummation of the Transactions by the Company have been duly and validly
authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company and, no other corporate
proceedings on the part of the Company which have not been taken (including,
without limitation, approval of its stockholders) are necessary to authorize
this Agreement or to consummate the Transactions.
(5) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Company and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Company,
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium
12
or other similar Laws affecting or relating to enforcement of creditors' rights
generally and may be subject to general principles of equity.
(6) After giving effect to the Transactions, the Company is not in
breach of any obligation under this Agreement, any Related Agreement or any of
the Credit Documents.
1.13 Consents; No Conflicts. Neither the execution, delivery and
----------------------
performance by the Company of this Agreement nor the consummation of the
Transactions will (a) conflict with, or result in a breach or violation of, any
provision of the Company's organizational documents; (b) constitute, with or
without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, a breach, violation or
default, create a Lien (other than Liens under the Credit Documents), or give

acceleration, under (i) any Law or License, or (ii) any note, bond, mortgage,
indenture, lease, agreement or other instrument, in each case which is

any Consent on the part of the Company or the approval of the Company's Board of
Directors (which approval has been obtained), except in each case where such
breach, violation, default, Lien, right, or the failure to obtain or give such
Consent would not have a Material Adverse Effect on it or materially adversely
affect the Transactions, its ability to perform its obligations under the

its business in the manner currently contemplated.

--------
jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless each other Cash Equity Investor and
Xxxxxx Entity, the Company and their respective Affiliates, and the
shareholders, members, managers, officers, employees, agents and/or the legal
representatives of any of them (each, a "Section 6.2 Indemnified Party"),
-----------------------------
against all liabilities and expenses (including amounts paid in satisfaction of
judgments, in compromise, as fines and penalties, and as counsel fees)
(collectively, "Losses") incurred by him or it in connection with the
------
investigation, defense, or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding
in which any Section 6.2 Indemnified Party may be involved or with which he or
it may be threatened that arises out of or results from (a) any representation
or warranty of such Cash Equity Investor or Xxxxxx Entity contained in this
Agreement being untrue in any material respect as of the date on which it was
made or (b) any material default by such Cash Equity Investor or Xxxxxx Entity
or any of its Affiliates in the performance of their respective obligations
under this Agreement, except to the extent (but only to the extent) any such
Losses arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Section 6.2 Indemnified Party or its Affiliates.
1.30 Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and
------------------------------
hold harmless each Cash Equity Investor and Xxxxxx Entity and their respective

-----------
Indemnified Party"), against all Losses incurred by him or it in connection with
-----------------
the investigation, defense, or disposition of any action, suit or other
proceeding in which any Section 6.3 Indemnified Party may be involved or with
which he or it may be threatened that arises out of or results from (a) any
representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement being
untrue in any material respect as of the date on which it was made or (b) any
material default by the Company or any of its Affiliates in the performance of
their respective obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent (but
only to the extent) any such Losses arise
17
out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Section
6.3 Indemnified Party or its Affiliates.
1.31 Procedures.
----------
(1) The terms of this Section 6.4 shall apply to any claim (a
-----------
"Claim") for indemnification under the terms of Sections 6.2 or 6.3. The Section
----- -------------------
6.2 Indemnified Party or Section 6.3 Indemnified Party (each, an "Indemnified
-----------
Party"), as the case may be, shall give prompt written notice of such Claim to
-----
the indemnifying party (the "Indemnifying Party") under the applicable Section,
------------------
which party may assume the defense thereof, provided that any delay or failure
to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is materially
prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure. The Indemnified Party shall have
the right to approve any counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and to
approve the terms of any proposed settlement, such approval not to be
unreasonably delayed or withheld (unless such settlement provides only, as to
the Indemnified Party, the payment of money damages actually paid by the
Indemnifying Party and a complete release of the Indemnified Party in respect of
the claim in question). Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary,
the provisions of this Article VI shall not be construed so as to provide for
----------
the indemnification of any Indemnified Party for any liability to the extent
(but only to the extent) that such indemnification would be in violation of
applicable Law or that such liability may not be waived, modified or limited
under applicable Law, but shall be construed so as to effectuate the provisions
of this Article VI to the fullest extent permitted by Law.
----------
(2) In the event that the Indemnifying Party undertakes the defense
of any Claim, the Indemnifying Party will keep the Indemnified Party advised as
to all material developments in connection with such Claim, including, but not
limited to, promptly furnishing the Indemnified Party with copies of all
material documents filed or served in connection therewith.
(3) In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the
defense of any Claim within ten Business Days after receiving written notice
thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, subject to the Indemnifying
Party's right to assume the defense pursuant to the provisions of this Article
-------
VI, to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Claim for the
--
account of the Indemnifying Party. Unless and until the Indemnifying Party
assumes the defense of any Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall advance to the
Indemnified Party any of its reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and
expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any such action or
proceeding. Each Indemnified Party shall agree in writing prior to any such
advancement that, in the event he or it receives any such advance, such
Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for such fees, costs
and expenses to the extent that it shall be determined that he or it was not
entitled to indemnification under this Article VI.
----------
(4) In no event shall an Indemnifying Party be required to pay in
connection with any Claim for more than one firm of counsel (and local counsel)
for each of the following groups of Indemnified Parties: (i) the Cash Equity
Investors and the Xxxxxx Entities, their respective Affiliates and the
shareholders, members, managers, officers, employees, agents and/or the legal
18
representatives of any of them; and (ii) the Company, its Affiliates and the
shareholders, members, managers, officers, employees, agents and/or the legal
representatives of any of them.
1.32 Registration Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
-------------------
in this Article VI, the indemnification and contribution provisions set forth in
----------
Sections 5(e) and 5(f) of the Stockholders' Agreement shall govern any claim
----------------------
made with respect to the registration statements filed pursuant to Section 5 of
---------
the Stockholders' Agreement or sales made thereunder.
1.33 Limit on Indemnity. So long as the Company does not conduct any
------------------
business or engage in any activities other than those described in the first
sentence of the definition of "Business" (as such term is defined in the
Stockholders' Agreement), each party waives its right to indemnification under
this Article VI or any other right to assert any claim arising from any
----------
inaccuracy in the Company's representations and warranties set forth in Section
-------
4.10 or the violation by the Company of the covenant set forth in Section 5.2(d)
---- --------------
to the extent such Section relates to ineligible or prohibited activities of
SBICs.
ARTICLE VII
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
------------------------
1.34 Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may be amended,
--------------------------
modified or supplemented only by written agreement of each of the Cash Equity
Investors, the Xxxxxx Entities and the Company, and (solely with respect to the
provisions contained in Section 5.6) the Other Stockholders.
-----------
1.35 Waiver of Compliance; Consents. Any failure of any of the
------------------------------
parties to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein
may be waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefits thereof only by a
written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but such waiver or
failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant,
agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with
respect to, any subsequent or other failure. Whenever this Agreement requires or
permits consent by or on behalf of any party hereto, such consent shall be given
in writing in a manner consistent with the requirement for a waiver of
compliance as set forth in this Section 7.2.

--------------
construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without giving
effect to the conflicts of Law principles thereof. The parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally consent to submit to the non-exclusive

---------------
any litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the
