Agreement, and provided any such person has complied with all laws, rules
and
regulations and is not in breach of any of its representations, warranties,
or
agreements made in any of the Transaction Documents, the Company will reimburse

Buyer nor any such Affiliates, partners, directors, agents, employees or
controlling persons shall have any liability to the Company or any Person

with all laws, rules and regulations and is not in breach of any of its
representations, warranties and agreements made in any of the Transaction
Documents.

preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the
purpose
of enabling the Company to sell the Shares, and issue the shares of common
stock
issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock.
4.6 Listing of Common Stock. The Company hereby
agrees to use its best efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock
on
its current Trading Market, and promptly file with the Trading Market to

suit or
proceeding arising directly and/or indirectly pursuant to or under this
Agreement shall be brought solely in a federal or state court located in

City of Wilmington, State of Delaware. By its execution hereof, the parties
hereby covenant and irrevocably submit to the in personam
jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the City of Wilmington,
State of Delaware and agree that any process in any such action may be
served
upon any of them personally, or by certified mail or registered mail upon
them

law
would be adequate.
5.13 Indemnification
by the Company and Bontems. The Company and Bontems shall, notwithstanding
any
termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, the officers,
directors, agents and employees of it, each Person who controls Buyer (within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, agents and employees of each
such
controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) and expenses (including
the cost
(including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses relating
to an Indemnified Party’s (as defined below) actions to enforce the provisions
of this Section 5.13) (collectively, “Losses”),
as incurred, to the extent arising out of or relating to (i) any material
misrepresentation or material breach of any representation or warranty
made by
the Company or Bontems in the Transaction Documents, or, (ii) any material
breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or Bontems
contained in the Transaction Documents, or (iii) any cause of action, suit
or
claim brought or made against such Indemnified Party and arising out of
or
resulting from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the
Transaction Documents executed pursuant hereto by any of the Indemnified
Parties. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.13 is held
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified
Party
with respect to any Losses, then the Indemnifying Party (as defined below),
in
lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute
to the
amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of Losses
in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying
Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection
with the actions or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any
other
relevant equitable considerations. The Company and Bontems shall
notify Buyer promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding
of which the Company or Bontems is aware in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.
a.
|
Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding shall be brought or
asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an
“Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall
promptly notify the Company (the “Indemnifying
Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have
the
right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment
of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment
of all
fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof;
provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Party
to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party
of its
obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except
(and only)
to the extent that it shall be finally judicially determined
by a court of
competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to
appeal or
further review) that such failure shall have materially and adversely
prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
|
-
10
-
An
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any
such
proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties
unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees
and
expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume
the
defense of such proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such
Indemnified Party in any such proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any
such
proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified
Party
and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been
advised
by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel
were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in
which
case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing
that
it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party,
the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof
and the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for all Indemnified
Parties in any matters related on a factual basis shall be at the expense
of the
Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any such proceeding affected without its written consent,
which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall,
without
the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement
of any
pending proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party,
unless
such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party
from
all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding.
b.
|
Timing
of Payments. All reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party
(including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred
in
connection with investigating or preparing to defend such proceeding
in a
manner not inconsistent with this Section 5.13 shall be paid to the
Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10) Trading Days
of written
notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however,
that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying
Party
for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such
actions for
which such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder,
determined based upon the relative faults of the
parties.
