D. The Placement Agent hereby agrees that it will indemnify and hold the
Investor and each officer, director, shareholder, employee or

7
controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Investor
within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934
Act or the Rules and Regulations, harmless from and against any and all
loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense whatsoever (including, but
not limited to, any and all reasonable legal fees and other expenses and
disbursements incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to
defend or defending any action, suit or proceeding, including any inquiry
or investigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever or in
appearing or preparing for appearance as a witness in any action, suit or

such as a deposition) to which the Investor or such indemnified person of
the Investor may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, the
Rules and Regulations, or any other federal or state law or regulation,
common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon (i) the conduct of
the Placement Agent or its officers, employees or representatives in

Placement Agent for the Offering or (ii) the material breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Placement
Agent in this Agreement (iii) any false or misleading information provided
to the Investor by one of the Placement Agent's indemnified persons.
E. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of commencement
of any action covered by Section 6(A), (B), (C) or (D), the party to be
indemnified shall, within five (5) business days, notify the indemnifying
party of the commencement thereof; the omission by one (1) indemnified
party to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the
indemnifying party of its obligation to indemnify any other indemnified
party that has given such notice and shall not relieve the indemnifying
party of any liability outside of this indemnification if not materially
prejudiced thereby. In the event that any action is brought against the
indemnified party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent it may desire, to assume and control the
defense thereof with counsel chosen by it which is reasonably acceptable
to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election to so assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under such
Section 6(A), (B), (C), or (D) for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof, but the indemnified party may, at its own expense,
participate in such defense by counsel chosen by it, without, however,
impairing the indemnifying party's control of the defense. Subject to the
proviso of this sentence and notwithstanding any other statement to the
contrary contained herein, the indemnified party or parties shall have the
right to choose its or their own counsel and control the defense of any
action, all at the expense of the indemnifying party if, (i) the
employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the
indemnifying party in connection with the defense of such action at the
expense of the indemnifying party, or (ii) the indemnifying party shall
not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
party to have charge of the defense of such action within a reasonable
time after notice of commencement of the action, or (iii) such indemnified
party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be
defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to
those available to one or all of the indemnifying parties (in which case
the indemnifying parties shall not have the right to direct the defense of
such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of
which events such fees and expenses of one additional counsel shall be
borne by the indemnifying party; provided, however, that the indemnifying
party shall not, in connection with any one action or separate but
substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising
out of the same general allegations or circumstance, be liable for the
reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys
at any time for all
8
such indemnified parties. No settlement of any action or proceeding
against an indemnified party shall be made without the consent of the
indemnifying party.
F. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances
in which the indemnification provided for in Section 6 is due in
accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by a court to be
unavailable on grounds of policy or otherwise, the Company and the
Placement Agent and the Investor shall contribute to the aggregate losses,
claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with the investigation or defense of
same) which the other may incur in such proportion so that the Company,
the Placement Agent and the Investor shall be responsible for such percent
of the aggregate of such losses, claims, damages and liabilities as shall
equal the percentage of the gross proceeds paid to each of them.;
provided, however, that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6(F), any person
controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Placement
Agent, or any partner, director, officer, employee, representative or any
agent of any thereof, shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Placement Agent and each person controlling, controlled by or under common
control with the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act
or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each officer of the Company and each
director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Company and each person controlling, controlled by or under common control
with the Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or
Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each member of the general partner of the
Investor shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. Any
party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of
commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in
respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against the other
party under this Section 6(F), notify such party from whom contribution
may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party shall not relieve
the party from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation they
may have hereunder or otherwise if the party from whom contribution may be
sought is not materially prejudiced thereby. The indemnity and
contribution agreements contained in this Section 6 shall remain operative
and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on
behalf of any indemnified person or any termination of this Agreement.
7. FEES. The Company hereby agrees to pay the Placement Agent 1% for the
gross proceeds from each Put with a maximum of ten thousand dollars
($10,000). It is hereby agreed that the Agent's fee shall be paid on a pro
rata basis, as a relative proportionate part of each withdrawal the
company actually executes. Each proportionate fee shall be paid within 15
days of the actual withdrawal of money.
8. PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. The Company hereby agrees to bear all of the expenses
in connection with the Offering, including, but not limited to the

Company's counsel and accountants, issue and transfer taxes, if any. The
Company agrees to bear all the reasonable expenses of the Placement Agent
in performing its services under this Agreement including but not limited
to the fees and expenses of counsel. All expenses bigger then 50 US$ shall
be authorized by the company in advance.
