such knowledge and experience) in

capable (whether acting for its own
account or in such fiduciary capacity) of
evaluating the merits and risks of

through a Dealer to an institutional
investor approved by the Dealer as an

referred to herein as "you"), from and against any and
all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Private Placement
Memorandum (as amended or supplemented if the Company

to state therein a material fact required to be stated

damages or liabilities in such proportion as is

benefits referred to above but also the relative fault
of each of the parties and any other relevant equitable
considerations.
