2.3 of the Formation Agreement, under which Broncus and Asthmatx agreed to enter into an agreement
providing for certain indemnification obligations between themselves and setting forth provisions

Loss arising from any claim, suit, action, arbitration, demand, investigation or other
proceeding asserted, brought or made by a third party or parties to the extent that such third
party or parties seeks to recover damages caused or alleged to have been caused as a result of, or
arising from, (i) any individual(s) having been treated with or by Exhale at any time or (ii) any
use of Exhale at any time; and (b) shall not include any Asthmatx Indemnified Loss (as defined in
Section 2).
4. Covenants Regarding Insurance. The parties hereby agree as follows:
4.1 Asthmatx; Alair Insurance. Asthmatx shall use diligent, good faith efforts to
purchase and obtain the Alair Insurance, and to have the Alair Insurance become effective, as soon
as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date of this Agreement. Asthmatx shall also use
diligent, good faith efforts to cause the Alair Insurance to: (a) have an aggregate coverage limit
of ***** Dollars ($*****); (b) make both Asthmatx and Broncus named insureds of the
Alair Insurance; and (c) cause the Alair Insurance to have a coverage period of at least five (5)
years from the date it is issued. Asthmatx shall consult with Broncus regarding the specific terms
of such Alair Insurance. Asthmatx shall, at its sole expense, (a) pay all premiums and other
charges required to obtain the Alair Insurance and maintain it in effect at all times during the
coverage period of the Alair Insurance and (b) take all other actions reasonably necessary or
appropriate to maintain such Alair Insurance in effect at all times during its coverage period.
4.2 Broncus. The parties acknowledge and agree that no further premiums or other
payments are required to be paid to keep the Broncus Insurance Policies in effect and that such
“occurrence based” policies apply only to claims based on events occurring during specific
Occurrence Periods. Broncus shall, at its sole expense, take all actions reasonably necessary or
appropriate to maintain each Broncus Insurance Policy in effect during the maximum time period
during which such Broncus Insurance Policy can remain in effect in accordance with its current
terms without the payment of any additional premium, fee or other charge.
5. Insurance Allocations; Special Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 2, the parties hereby agree as follows:
5.1 First Recourse to Alair Insurance. If either Broncus or Asthmatx incurs or
suffers any Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss, then it will first seek to obtain coverage for such
Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss from any available Alair Insurance to the maximum extent that coverage
for such Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss is available under the Alair Insurance, before seeking or
obtaining any coverage for such Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss under any Broncus Insurance Policy.
5.2 Limited Indemnification by Broncus for Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss. Subject to
the provisions of this Section 5.2, Broncus agrees to indemnify Asthmatx against, and to hold
Asthmatx harmless from, that amount (and only that amount) of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss actually
suffered or incurred by Asthmatx for which Asthmatx has not been reimbursed or provided coverage
under the Alair
***** Certain

has been requested for these omitted portions pursuant to an
application for confidential treatment sent to the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
4
Insurance; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing (i) under no
circumstance shall Broncus be obligated to indemnify Asthmatx for any amount of Pre-Spinoff Alair
Claim Loss for which coverage is not actually available and actually provided under an Applicable
Broncus Insurance Policy (as defined below) and (ii) in no event shall Broncus have any obligation
under this Section 5.2 to pay any amounts for which it is not provided coverage by a Broncus
Insurance Policy. As used herein, the term “Applicable Broncus Insurance Policy” means, with
respect to any Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss, the Broncus Insurance Policy (or Policies) for which
insurance coverage is available to pay for liability of Broncus in respect of its obligation to
indemnify Asthmatx for such Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss pursuant to this Section 5.2. The parties
acknowledge and agree that the Broncus Insurance Policies also provide Broncus with insurance
coverage for Other Claim Loss. The parties further acknowledge and agree that nothing in this
Section 5.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement imposes any restriction upon Broncus’ right and ability
to at any time seek, obtain, be paid and retain any coverage, proceeds, reimbursements or other
payments available to be paid to Broncus or payable on behalf of Broncus or for the benefit of
Broncus under any Broncus Insurance Policy or Policies as coverage or reimbursement for any Loss,
Liabilities or other amounts (including, but not limited to, any Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss or
Other Claim Loss) and, except to the extent expressly provided in Section 5.3, no rights shall
accrue to Asthmatx as a result of the payment, for any reason, of proceeds of any Broncus Insurance
Policy or Policies to Broncus or a claimant against Broncus, or on behalf of or for the benefit of
Broncus.
5.3 Insurance Allocation and Reimbursement. Asthmatx and Broncus acknowledge that the
total dollar amount of claims for insurance coverage that may be made against a Broncus Insurance
Policy may exceed the Coverage Limit (as defined below) of that policy. Accordingly the parties
desire to agree in this Section 5.3 to a mechanism for allocating the available insurance coverage
under each Broncus Insurance Policy between Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss and Other Claim Loss and,
accordingly, hereby agree as follows:
(a) Allocation. If the aggregate dollar amount of claims for insurance coverage made
against a Broncus Insurance Policy and payable thereunder exceed the Coverage Limit of such Broncus
Insurance Policy, then: (i) the maximum dollar amount of the coverage of such Broncus Insurance
Policy that is allocated to cover Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss (the “Alair Allocation Amount”)
shall, in the aggregate, not exceed the greater of (A) *****
percent (*****%) of the Coverage Limit of
such Broncus Insurance Policy or (B) an amount equal to the Coverage Limit of such Broncus
Insurance Policy minus the total amount of Other Claim Loss that is entitled to be paid or covered
by such Broncus Insurance Policy; and (ii) the maximum dollar amount of the coverage of such
Broncus Insurance Policy that is allocable to cover Other Claim Loss (the “Other Allocation
Amount”) shall, in the aggregate, not exceed the greater
of (A) ***** percent (*****% ) of the
Coverage Limit of such Broncus Insurance Policy or (B) an amount equal to the Coverage Limit of
such Broncus Insurance Policy minus the total amount of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss that is
entitled to be paid or covered by such Broncus Insurance Policy.
***** Certain
portions of this exhibit have been omitted and confidential treatment
has been requested for these omitted portions pursuant to an
application for confidential treatment sent to the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
5
(b) Reimbursement. If for any reason the payments made under a Broncus Insurance
Policy in respect of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss exceed the Alair Allocation Amount for such
policy and the remaining coverage under such policy is insufficient to cover in full all Other
Claim Loss that would otherwise be covered by such Broncus Insurance Policy, then Asthmatx shall
reimburse Broncus for that amount of Other Claim Loss for which coverage would otherwise have been
(but is not) available under such Broncus Insurance Policy; provided however, that
the amount of such reimbursement by Asthmatx shall not exceed the aggregate amounts paid under such
Broncus Insurance Policy in respect of all Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss minus the Alair Allocation
Amount for such Broncus Insurance Policy. Likewise, if for any reason payments made under a
Broncus Insurance Policy in respect of Other Claim Loss exceed the Other Allocation Amount for such
policy and the remaining coverage under such policy is insufficient to cover in full all
Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss that would otherwise be covered by such Broncus Insurance Policy, then
Broncus shall reimburse Asthmatx for that amount of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss for which coverage
would otherwise have been (but is not) available under such Broncus Insurance Policy;
provided however, that the amount of such reimbursement by Broncus shall not exceed
the aggregate amounts paid under such Broncus Insurance Policy in respect of all Other Claim Loss
minus the Other Allocation Amount for such Broncus Insurance Policy. Broncus and Asthmatx shall
each bear their own cost, and shall not be reimbursed by the other party for, any Pre-Spinoff Alair
Claim Loss such party suffers or incurs that is subject to an insurance deductible under a Broncus
Insurance Policy. As used herein, the “Coverage Limit” of a Broncus Insurance Policy means the
total dollar amount of insurance coverage available under such policy as of the Effective Date of
this Agreement.
(c) Other Terms. Nothing in this Section 5.3 limits either party’s indemnification
obligations set forth in Sections 2 and 3 above for any Loss incurred after taking into account
insurance payments, but rather is intended to set forth how the parties desire to allocate
insurance proceeds. The agreements set forth in this Section 5.3 are intended solely to address the
respective rights of the parties and are not intended to modify the terms of any Broncus Insurance
Policy.
(d) Examples. Exhibit “A” to this Agreement contains examples that illustrate
the operation of this Section 5.3.
5.4 Certain Covenants. In the event that either party becomes aware of a claim,
demand, suit, action, investigation or proceeding for which it may be entitled to indemnification
under Section 2, 3 or 5.2 of this Agreement, then such party (“Indemnified Party”) shall:
(a) provide written notice to the other party (“Indemnifying Party”) of such claim, demand,
suit, action, investigation or proceeding promptly, and in no event later than thirty (30) days,
after it has knowledge of such claim, demand, suit, action, investigation or proceeding;
***** Certain

application for confidential treatment sent to the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

(b) permit the Indemnifying Party (but only if the Indemnifying Party so chooses, in its sole
and absolute discretion) to assume full responsibility to investigate, prepare for, defend against,
and/or settle, all at the Indemnifying Party’s own expense, any such claim, demand, suit, action,
investigation or proceeding; and
(c) assist and cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the investigation of, preparation for,
defense of, and/or settlement of any such claim, demand, suit, action, investigation or proceeding.
In no case shall the Indemnified Party or any of its employees, officers, directors,
consultants or agents compromise, settle, and/or admit to, any such claim, demand, suit, action,
investigation or proceeding without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Exhibit “A”: Certain Examples of the Operation of Section 5.3

portions of this exhibit have been omitted and confidential treatment
has been requested for these omitted portions pursuant to an
application for confidential treatment sent to the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
9
Exhibit “A”
Certain Examples of the Operation of Section 5.3
The following hypothetical examples are intended to illustrate the operation of Section 5.3 of
this Indemnification Agreement.
Example
1: Assume that a Broncus Insurance Policy has a $****** Coverage Limit and that (i) a $****** payment
is made under such policy in respect of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss, and (ii) subsequently,
$****** of Other Claim Loss is incurred by Broncus that would otherwise have been (but is not)
covered by such Broncus Insurance Policy. In this example, Asthmatx would be obligated to
reimburse Broncus for $****** of the $****** that was paid from such Broncus Insurance Policy in
respect of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss and the remaining $****** of such Other Claim Loss would be
the responsibility of Broncus (either because it was direct liability of Broncus or because Broncus
is obligated to indemnify Broncus for such $****** of Other Claim Loss under Section 3 of this
Agreement).
Section 5.3 limits the amount of Asthmatx’s reimbursement for uncovered Other Claim Loss to the
aggregate amounts paid under such Broncus Insurance Policy in respect of all Pre-Spinoff Alair
Claim Loss (in this example $******) minus the Alair Allocation Amount for such Broncus
Insurance Policy (in this example $******). In this example, the Alair Allocation Amount is
$****** because that is the greater of (i) ******% of the $****** Coverage Limit of the Broncus
Insurance Policy or (ii) the $****** Coverage Limit of such Broncus Insurance Policy minus the
$****** of Other Claim Loss entitled to be paid or covered by such Broncus Insurance Policy.
Example
2: Assume that a Broncus Insurance Policy has a $****** Coverage Limit and that (i) a $****** payment
is made under such policy in respect of Other Claim Loss, (ii) a $****** payment is also made under
such policy in respect of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss, and (iii) subsequently, an additional
$****** of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss is incurred (such $****** of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss
is referred to in this example as the “Remaining Alair Claim Loss”). In this example, Broncus
would be obligated to reimburse Asthmatx for $****** of the $****** that was paid from such Broncus
Insurance Policy in respect of Other Claim Loss. Such $****** payment would reduce the Remaining Alair Claim Loss to $******, of which (i) $****** could be
covered by the Broncus Insurance Policy and (ii) $****** would be the responsibility of Asthmatx
(either because it was direct liability of Asthmatx or because Asthmatx is obligated to indemnify
Broncus for such $****** of Loss under Section 2 of this Agreement).
Section 5.3 limits the amount of Broncus’ reimbursement for uncovered Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss
to the aggregate amounts paid under such Broncus Insurance Policy in respect of all Other Claim
Loss (in this example $******) minus the Other Allocation Amount for such Broncus Insurance
Policy (in this example $******). In this example, the Other Allocation Amount is $****** because
that is the greater of (i) ******% of the $****** Coverage Limit of the Broncus Insurance Policy or
(ii) the $****** Coverage Limit of such Broncus Insurance Policy minus the $****** of Pre-Spinoff
Alair Claim Loss entitled to be paid or covered by such Broncus Insurance Policy.

Example
3: Assume that a Broncus Insurance Policy has a $****** Coverage Limit and that (i) a $****** payment
is made under such policy in respect of Pre-Spinoff Alair Claim Loss, and (ii) no other claims for
coverage are made against such Broncus Insurance Policy. In this example, neither Broncus nor
Asthmatx would have any obligation to reimburse the other for any amounts under Section 5.3.
