----
Section 8.6.B of the Limited Partnership Agreement to acquire such Units for
Common Shares).
3A. Registration with Respect to Holders.
------------------------------------
(a) Filing of Issuance Registration Statement. Subject to the conditions
-----------------------------------------
set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall cause to be filed with the SEC by
September 2, 2002 a Registration Statement (the "Issuance Registration
---------------------
Statement") under Rule 415 under the Securities Act relating to (i) the issuance
to the Holders of Registrable Shares upon the redemption of Common Units or in
exchange for Common Units and (ii) the sale by any Holder who is an affiliate of
the Company (as defined in Rule 144(a) under the Securities Act) (each, an
"Affiliate Holder") of all of the Registrable Shares of such Holder or Holders
-----------------
in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall use reasonable best efforts to
cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as
practicable thereafter. In the event that the Company is unable to cause the
Issuance Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC prior to
November 1, 2002 (the "Outside Effective Date"), then
----------------------
7
the provisions of Section 3A(b) shall apply. The Company agrees to use
reasonable best efforts to keep the Registration Statement, after its date of
effectiveness, continuously effective until the date on which (i) all Holders
have redeemed or exchanged for Common Shares the Common Units that may be issued
upon conversion of Preferred Units and (ii) the Affiliate Holders (A) no longer
hold any Registrable Shares or (B) may sell all of the Registrable Shares held
by such Affiliate Holders pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or any successor provision)
(hereinafter referred to as the "Issuance Registration Expiration Date").
-------------------------------------
(a-1) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Conversion Date
with respect to a Holder's Preferred Units accelerates due to the consummation
of a "Cash Business Combination" (as defined in the relevant Preferred Units'
Certificate of Designations), (i) the Company's obligations under Section 3A(b)
below shall become immediately effective with respect to such Holder (provided,
however, that the Company must file the Resale Registration Statement (as
defined below) within forty-five (45) days of the consummation of such
transaction) and (ii) the Company's obligations under Section 3A(a) above shall
terminate with respect to such Holder.
(b) Registration Statement Covering Resale of Common Shares. In the
-------------------------------------------------------
event that the Company determines that it is unable to cause the Issuance
Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC by the Outside
Effective Date or (except as otherwise permitted by Sections 9(b) and 10) is
unable or it is impracticable to keep such Issuance Registration Statement
continuously effective until the Issuance Registration Expiration Date, the
Company shall cause to be filed with the SEC, within ten (10) business days
after the Company makes such determination, a Registration Statement (the
"Resale Shelf Registration Statement") under Rule 415 under the Securities Act
-----------------------------------
relating to the resale by each Holder of all Registrable Shares of such Holder.
The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration
Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter.
The Company agrees to use reasonable best efforts to keep the Resale Shelf
Registration Statement, after its date of effectiveness, continuously effective
until the earlier of (a) the date on which all Registrable Shares have been
disposed of by the Holders or (b) the date on which all Registrable Shares have
become eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or any successor provision)
(the "Resale Shelf Expiration Date"). After the Company has filed the Resale
----------------------------
Shelf Registration Statement, any obligation of the Company to file the Issuance
Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3A(a) shall be suspended for so long
as the Resale Shelf Registration Statement remains effective.
(c) Demand Registration. Subject to the conditions set forth in this
-------------------
Agreement, at any time after the later of the Resale Shelf Registration
Expiration Date and the Issuance Registration Expiration Date and while any
Registrable Shares are outstanding (or are not currently outstanding, but are
issuable), the Company shall, at the written request of any Holder holding
Registrable Shares, cause to be filed within twenty (20) business days after the
8
date of such request by such Holder a Registration Statement under Rule 415
under the Securities Act relating to the sale by the Holder of all of the
Registrable Shares held by such Holder in accordance with the terms hereof, and
shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be
declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter. The Company
may, in its sole discretion, elect to file the Registration Statement before
receipt of notice from any Holder. The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts
to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective, after its date of
effectiveness, until the date on which such Holder no longer holds any
Registrable Shares.
(d) Piggyback Registration. If at any time after the Conversion Date,
----------------------
while any Registrable Shares of a Holder are outstanding (or are not currently
outstanding, but are issuable) and (except as otherwise permitted by Sections
9(b) and 10) a Registration Statement applicable to Holders under Sections
3A(a), 3A(b) or 3A(c) is not effective, the Company proposes to file a
registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering
solely of Common Shares solely for cash (other than a registration statement (i)
on Form S-8 or any successor form to such Form or in connection with any
employee or director welfare, benefit or compensation plan, (ii) on Form S-4 or
any successor form to such Form or in connection with an exchange offer, (iii)
in connection with a rights offering exclusively to existing holders of Common
Shares, (iv) in connection with an offering solely to employees of the Company
or its subsidiaries, or (v) relating to a transaction pursuant to Rule 145 of
the Securities Act), for its own account or for the accounts of other Holders,
the Company shall give prompt written notice of such proposed filing to the
Holders. The notice referred to in the preceding sentence shall offer the
Holders the opportunity to register such amount of Registrable Shares as each
Holder may request (a "Piggyback Registration"). Subject to the provisions of
----------------------
Section 4 below, the Company shall include in such Piggyback Registration, in
the registration and qualification for sale under the blue sky or securities
laws of the various states and in any underwriting in connection therewith all
Registrable Shares for which the Company has received written requests for
inclusion therein from Holders within twenty (20) calendar days after the notice
referred to above has been given by the Company to the Holders. Holders of
Registrable Shares shall be permitted to withdraw all or part of the Registrable
Shares from a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effective date of
such Piggyback Registration. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten
primary registration on behalf of the Company and the managing underwriter
advises the Company that the total number of Common Shares requested to be
included in such registration by the Holders and holders under similar
registration rights agreements exceeds the number of Common Shares that can be
sold in such offering without impairing the pricing or other commercial
practicality of such offering, the Company will include in such registration in
the following priority: (i) first, all Common Shares the Company proposes to
sell, (ii) second, up to the full number of applicable Common Shares requested
to be included in such registration by any holders identified in that certain
Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement dated June 23, 1997, as amended from
time to time, by and among the Company and such holders, and (iii) third, up to
the full
9
number of applicable Registrable Shares requested to be included in such
registration by any Holders and any other holders under similar registration
rights agreements with the Company which, in the case of this clause (iii), in
the opinion of such managing underwriter, can be sold without adversely
affecting the price range or probability of success of such offering (with, to
the extent necessary, Registrable Shares allocated pro rata among the Holders
--- ----
and such other holders on the basis of the total number of Common Shares
requested to be included in such registration by all such holders). If in
connection with any registration under this Section 3A(d), the Common Shares to
be registered will be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, then
the Company will make reasonable efforts, upon the request of any Holder
requesting registration of Registrable Shares under this Section 3A(d), to
arrange for such underwriters to include the Registrable Shares of such Holder
among the Shares to be distributed by or through such underwriters.
3B. Miscellaneous Provisions Relating to Registration Statements.
------------------------------------------------------------
(a) Notification and Distribution of Materials. The Company shall notify
------------------------------------------
each Holder of the effectiveness of any Registration Statement applicable to the
Shares of such Holder and shall furnish to each such Holder such number of
copies of the Registration Statement (including any amendments, supplements and
exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary
prospectus and all related amendments and supplements) and any documents
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or such other documents
as such Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate its sale of the
Registrable Shares in the manner described in the Registration Statement.
(b) Amendments and Supplements. The Company shall prepare and file with
--------------------------
the SEC from time to time such amendments and supplements to the Registration
Statement and Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to
keep the Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of
the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Shares
until the earlier of (a) the Issuance Registration Expiration Date (in the case
of a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3A(a) hereof) or the
Resale Registration Expiration Date (in the case of a Registration Statement
filed pursuant to Section 3A(b) hereof) or (b) the date on which the
Registration Statement ceases to be effective in accordance with the terms of
this Section 3. Upon ten (10) business days' notice, the Company shall file any
supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement with
respect to the plan of distribution or such Holder's ownership interests in
Registrable Shares that is reasonably necessary to permit the sale of the
Holder's Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. The Company
shall file any necessary listing applications or amendments to the existing
applications to cause the Shares registered under any Registration Statement to
be then listed or quoted on the primary exchange or quotation system on which
the Common Shares are then listed or quoted.
10
(c) Notice of Certain Events. The Company shall promptly notify each
------------------------
applicable Holder of, and confirm in writing, the filing of the Registration
Statement or any Prospectus, amendment or supplement related thereto or any
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement applicable to such Holder
and the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment.
At any time when a Prospectus relating to the Registration Statement is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act by a Holder to a transferee,
the Company shall immediately notify each Holder of the happening of any event
as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as
then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading. In such event, the Company shall promptly prepare and furnish to
each applicable Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an
amendment of such Prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter
delivered to the purchasers of Registrable Shares, such Prospectus shall not
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The
Company will, if necessary, amend the Registration Statement of which such
Prospectus is a part to reflect such amendment or supplement.
(d) Underwritten Offerings. In the case of an underwritten offering of
----------------------
Registrable Shares in which Holders will offer a number of Registrable Shares
with an aggregate offering price to the public of at least $35 million (provided
such number of shares represents at least 20 times the average daily trading
volume of Common Shares during the four weeks preceding the request by the
Holders to initiate an underwritten offering), the Company shall permit Holders
who hold a majority of all Registrable Shares held by the Holders who are
participating in such offering to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s)
who will administer such offering, subject to the approval of the Company which
will not be unreasonably withheld. In connection with any such underwritten
offering, the Company (upon ten (10) business days advance notice) will (i)
enter into underwriting and related agreements reasonably acceptable to the
Company with customary terms (including representations and warranties and
indemnification provisions, such provisions to be, to the extent customary, in
favor of the selling Holders as well as the underwriters, but which terms,
however, shall be no less favorable to the Company than the most recent
underwriting agreement entered into by the Company); (ii) to the extent not
otherwise disruptive of the Company's operations, reasonably cooperate with the
underwriter(s); (iii) provide customary closing documentation; (iv) to the
extent necessary, amend the Registration Statement; (v) to the extent not
otherwise disruptive of the Company's operations, provide such information and
make available appropriate personnel as may reasonably be requested by the
Holders or the managing underwriters, and (vi) to the extent not otherwise
disruptive of the Company's operations, provide such Holder and underwriters and
their respective counsel and accountants,
11
if any, the opportunity to participate in the preparation of such Registration
Statement, provided, that (a) Company personnel will not be required to
-------- ----
participate in road show presentations (but, upon reasonable advance notice and
to the extent not unduly disruptive of the Company's operations, Company
personnel whose identity and office may be reasonably determined by the Company
will be available to participate in a reasonable number of conference calls) and
(b) the Company will be reimbursed by the Holders participating in the offering
(who shall be jointly and severally liable for such reimbursement) for any out
of pocket costs and expenses in connection with such cooperation to the extent
such expenses are greater than the expenses, or are not the type of expenses,
which would be borne by the Company in the case of other Registration Statements
filed hereunder (e.g., the cost of preparing glossy prospectuses with pictures
----
and the cost of any road show presentations in which the Company may in its sole
discretion may elect to participate).
4. State Securities Laws. Subject to the conditions set forth in this
---------------------
Agreement, the Company shall, in connection with the filing of any Registration
Statement hereunder, file such documents as may be necessary to register or
qualify the Registrable Shares under the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of such
states as any Holder may reasonably request, and the Company shall use its best
efforts to cause such filings to become effective; provided, however, that the
-------- -------
Company shall not be obligated to qualify as a foreign corporation to do
business under the laws of any such state in which it is not then qualified or
to file any general consent to service of process in any such state. Once
effective, the Company shall use its best efforts to keep such filings effective
until the earlier of (a) such time as all of the Registrable Shares have been
disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Holder
as set forth in the Registration Statement, (b) in the case of a particular
state, a Holder has notified the Company that it no longer requires an effective
filing in such state in accordance with its original request for filing or (c)
the date on which the Registration Statement ceases to be effective.
5. Expenses. Except as provided in Section 3B(d), the Company shall bear
--------
all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the
Registrable Shares pursuant to this Agreement, except that each Holder shall be
responsible for any brokerage or underwriting commissions and taxes of any kind
(including, without limitation, transfer taxes) with respect to any disposition,
sale or transfer of Registrable Shares sold by it and for any legal, accounting
and other expenses incurred by it.
6. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify each
------------------------------
of the Holders and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
representatives, fiduciaries and affiliates, and any underwriter (as defined in
the Securities Act (unless a formal underwriting agreement is entered into
between the Company and such underwriter, in which case the indemnification
provisions, if any, set forth therein shall apply), and each person or entity,
if any, that controls a Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, and
each other
12
person or entity, if any, subject to liability because of his, her or its
connection with a Holder (each, an "Indemnitee"), against any and all losses,
----------
claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses (including without
limitation reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys and other
professionals), joint or several, arising out of or based upon any violation by
the Company of the Securities Act or of any rule or regulation promulgated
thereunder (i) applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction
required of the Company in connection with any Registration Statement or
Prospectus, or (ii) upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact
contained in the Registration Statement or any Prospectus, or any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading; provided, that the Company shall not be
-------- ----
liable to such Indemnitee or any person who participates as an underwriter in
the offering or sale of Registrable Shares or any other person, if any, who
controls such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, in any such
case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or
proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon (a) an
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
made in such Registration Statement or in any such Prospectus in reliance upon
and in conformity with information regarding such Indemnitee or its plan of
distribution or ownership interests which was furnished in writing by such
person to the Company for use in connection with the Registration Statement or
the Prospectus contained therein by such Indemnitee or (b) such Holder's failure
to send or give a copy of the final, amended or supplemented prospectus
furnished to the Holder by the Company at or prior to the time such action is
required by the Securities Act to the person claiming an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission if such statement or
omission was corrected in such final, amended or supplemented prospectus.
7. Covenants of Holders. Each of the Holders (severally and not jointly)
--------------------
hereby agrees (a) to cooperate with the Company and to furnish to the Company
all such information concerning its plan of distribution and ownership interests
with respect to its Registrable Shares in connection with the preparation of a
Registration Statement with respect to such Holder's Registrable Shares and any
filings with any state securities commissions as the Company may reasonably
request, (b) to deliver or cause delivery of the Prospectus contained in such
Registration Statement to any purchaser of the shares covered by such
Registration Statement from the Holder and (c) to indemnify the Company, its
officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and affiliates, and each
person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities
Act, and each other person, if any, subject to liability because of his
connection with the Company, against any and all losses, claims, damages,
actions, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys and other
professionals) arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of material fact contained in either such Registration
Statement or the Prospectus contained therein, or any omission or alleged
13
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, if and to the extent that such statement
or omission occurs from reliance upon and in conformity with written information
regarding such Holder, its plan of distribution or its ownership interests,
which was furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein
unless such statement or omission was corrected in writing to the Company not
less than three (3) business days prior to the date of the final prospectus (as
supplemented or amended, as the case may be) or (ii) the failure by the Holder
to deliver or cause to be delivered the Prospectus contained in such
Registration Statement (as amended or supplemented, if applicable) furnished by
the Company to the Holder to any purchaser of the shares covered by such
Registration Statement from the Holder through no fault of the Company.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Holder shall be required to
pay as indemnification hereunder any amount in excess of the gross proceeds from
the sale of Shares by such Holder which gave rise to the incurrence of such
indemnification.
8. Indemnification Procedures.
--------------------------
Any person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement shall notify
promptly the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of any action or
proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made
hereunder, but the failure of any indemnified party to provide such notice shall
not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the
extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced thereby and shall not
relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any
indemnified party otherwise than hereunder. In case any action or proceeding is
brought against an indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party
of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to
participate therein and, unless in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to
the indemnified party a conflict of interest between such indemnified and
indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, to assume the defense
thereof (alone or jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified),
to the extent that it chooses, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party that it so chooses, the indemnifying party shall not be liable
to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided,
--------
however, that (i) if the indemnifying party fails to take reasonable steps
-------
necessary to defend diligently the action or proceeding within twenty (20)
business days after receiving notice from such indemnified party that the
indemnified party believes it has failed to do so; or (ii) if such indemnified
party who is a defendant in any action or proceeding which is also brought
against the indemnifying party reasonably shall have reasonably concluded, based
on the advice of counsel, that there may be one or more legal defenses available
to such indemnified party which are not available to the indemnifying party; or
(iii) if representation of both parties by the same counsel is otherwise
inappropriate under applicable standards of
14
professional conduct, then, in any such case, the indemnified party shall have
the right to assume or continue its own defense as set forth above (but with no
more than one firm of counsel for all indemnified parties in each jurisdiction,
except to the extent any indemnified party or parties reasonably shall have
concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses
available to such party or parties which are not available to the other
indemnified parties or to the extent representation of all indemnified parties
by the same counsel is otherwise inappropriate under applicable standards of
professional conduct) and the indemnifying party shall be liable for any
expenses therefor. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of
the indemnified party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect the
settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with
respect to, any pending or (to the knowledge of the indemnifying party)
threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution
may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or
potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or
judgment (A) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all
liability arising out of such action or claim and (B) does not include a
statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or
on behalf of any indemnified party.
9. Suspension of Registration Requirement; Restriction on Sales.
------------------------------------------------------------
(a) The Company shall promptly notify each Holder of, and confirm in
writing, the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness
of a Registration Statement with respect to such Holder's Registrable Shares or
the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose. The Company shall use its
best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness
of such a Registration Statement at the earliest possible moment.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement,
the Company's obligation under this Agreement to cause a Registration Statement
and any filings with any state securities commission to become effective or to
amend or supplement a Registration Statement shall be suspended in the event and
during such period as unforeseen circumstances exist (including without
limitation (i) an underwritten primary offering by the Company if the Company is
advised by the underwriters that the sale of Registrable Shares under the
Registration Statement would impair the pricing or commercial practicality of
the primary offering or (ii) pending negotiations relating to, or consummation
of, a transaction or the occurrence of an event that would require additional
disclosure of material information by the Company in the Registration Statement
or such filing, as to which the Company has a bona fide business purpose for
---- ----
preserving confidentiality or which renders the Company unable to comply with
SEC requirements) (such unforeseen circumstances being hereinafter referred to
as a "Suspension Event") that would make it impractical or unadvisable to cause
----------------
the Registration Statement or such filings to become effective or to amend or
supplement the
15
Registration Statement, but such suspension shall continue only for so long as
such event or its effect is continuing. The Company shall promptly notify the
Holders of the existence and, in the case of circumstances referred to in clause
(i) of this Section 9(b), nature of any Suspension Event, and shall promptly
notify the Holders upon the expiration of such Suspension Event.
(c) Each holder of Registrable Shares agrees, if requested by the Company
in the case of a Company-initiated non-underwritten offering or if requested by
the managing underwriter or underwriters in a Company-initiated underwritten
offering, not to effect any public sale or distribution of any of the securities
of the Company, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144, during the fifteen (15)
day period prior to, and during the sixty (60) day period beginning on, the date
of commencement of such Company-initiated offering (such period, or such lesser
period as the Company may specify, a "Company Sale Period"), subject to its
-------------------
rights under Section 3A(d) hereof, and provided, that any such request shall be
-------- ----
made no more then two times in any twelve-month period.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event
shall Suspension Events be permitted to take effect more than twice in any
twelve-month period and in no event shall Suspension Events and Company Sale
Periods be permitted to take effect for more than an aggregate of one hundred
twenty (120) days in any twelve-month period.
10. Black-Out Period. Each Holder agrees that, following the
----------------
effectiveness of any Registration Statement (except an Issuance Registration
Statement) relating to Registrable Shares of such Holder, such Holder will not
effect any sales of the Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration
Statement or any filings with any state Securities Commission at any time after
such Holder has received notice from the Company to suspend sales as a result of
the occurrence or existence of any Suspension Event or so that the Company may
correct or update the Registration Statement or such filing. During such
period, the Company will not be obligated to effect redemptions of Common Units
under an Issuance Registration Statement. The Holder may recommence effecting
sales of the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement or such filings, and
the Company will be obligated to resume effecting redemptions of Common Units
under an Issuance Registration Statement, and all other obligations which are
suspended as a result of a Suspension Event shall no longer be so suspended,
following further notice to such effect from the Company, which notice shall be
given by the Company not later than five (5) business days after the conclusion
of any such Suspension Event.
11. Additional Shares. The Company, at its option, may register, under
-----------------
any Registration Statement and any filings with any state securities commissions
filed pursuant to this Agreement, any number of unissued Common Shares of the
Company or any Common Shares of the Company owned by any other shareholder or
shareholders of the Company.
16
12. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Sections 6 and 7
------------
is unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims,
damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses referred to therein or is
insufficient to hold the indemnified party harmless as contemplated therein,
then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result of such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
Company, on the one hand, and the Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection
with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
actions, liabilities, costs or expenses as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the
Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other
factors, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company
or by the Indemnitee and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission;
provided, however, that in no event shall the obligation of any indemnifying
-------- -------
party to contribute under this Section 12 exceed the amount that such
indemnifying party would have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if
the indemnification provided for under Sections 6 or 7 hereof had been available
under the circumstances.
The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable
if contribution pursuant to this Section 12 were determined by pro rata
--- ----
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 12, no Holder shall be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the gross
proceeds from the sale of Shares exceeds the amount of any damages that the
Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission. No indemnified party guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying party who was not guilty
of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
13. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be
----------------------
amended, modified, or supplemented or waived without the prior written consent
of the Company and Holders holding in excess of one-half of the aggregate of all
Shares held by (or issuable to) such Holders.
14. Notices. Except as set forth below, all notices and other
-------
communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been duly given if delivered personally or sent by registered
or certified mail (return receipt requested),
17
postage prepaid or courier or overnight delivery service to the respective

hereto shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to
herein, with respect to such subject matter. This Agreement supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such
subject matter.
