are

of
protecting their own interests in connection with the transaction and (b) meet
the Investor suitability requirements contained in the Memorandum. You and
any
person acting on your behalf will cooperate with the Company so that the Units

7.1 By
the Company.
The
Company will indemnify and hold harmless you, each Selected Broker, and each
person, if any, who controls you or any Selected Broker within the meaning
of
the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several,
to which you, a Selected Broker or such controlling person may become subject
under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon
any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained
in
the Memorandum, or in any related sales material (whether designated solely
for
broker-dealer use or otherwise) which the Company or any officer thereof
authorizes in writing for use by you or any Selected Broker, or arise out of
or
are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to
indemnify you, each Selected Broker or such a controlling person thereof
pursuant to this Section 7.1 to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage
or
liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by you or any
Selected Broker specifically for use in the Memorandum or sales material; and
will reimburse you, each Selected Broker and each such controlling person for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating
or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1, the Company shall not indemnify
you, any Selected Broker or any person, if any, who controls you or the Selected
Broker within the meaning of the Act, for losses, liabilities or expenses
arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities
laws
unless (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count
involving alleged securities law violations by the particular indemnitee not
caused by materials supplied by the Company, (ii) such claims have been
dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction
as
to the particular indemnitee or (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves
the settlement of the claims against the particular indemnitee; nor shall the
Company indemnify you, any Selected Broker or any person, if any, who controls
you or the Selected Broker within the meaning of the Act, for losses,
liabilities or expenses arising from or out of any material misrepresentation
made by you or your representatives which are inconsistent with any statement
made in the Memorandum or in any written materials provided to you by the
Company in connection with your duties hereunder. In any claim against the
Company for indemnification for federal or state securities law violations,
the
party seeking indemnification shall place before the court the position of
the
Securities and Exchange Commission and any states that may require it with
respect to the issue of indemnification for securities law violations. This
indemnification supersedes the indemnification in the LOI.
If
for
any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraph is held
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party
with respect to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense referred to
therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the
indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received
by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party. but also the relative
fault
of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party.. For purposes of this
paragraph, “relative benefit” shall mean the amount of net proceeds actually
received by the Company in the Offering versus the compensation received by
WP
for services provided in connection with the Offering, net of its expenses.

the
Company and each other person who controls the Company within the meaning of
the
Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several,
to
which the Company may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact contained in the Memorandum, or any related
sales
material which the Company authorizes in writing for use by you and the Selected
Brokers, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission
to state therein any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to
make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent that
such
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
was
made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to
the Company by you or any Selected Broker specifically for use therein; (ii)
any
material misrepresentation made by you or your representatives which are
inconsistent with any statement made in the Memorandum or in any written
materials provided to you by the Company in connection with your duties
hereunder; and (iii) any breach by you or any Selected Broker of any
representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement,. You or any
Selected Broker will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by the Company or any controlling person in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided that
you
or any Selected Broker shall reimburse any such legal or other expenses in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action only to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or
liability results from any action or inaction caused by you. This
indemnification supercedes the indemnification in the LOI.
7.3 Notification.
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice
of
the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in
respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section
7, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission
so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability
which
it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7. In
case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies
the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
will
be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly
with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense
thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.
