SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), entered into as of the

I T A L S:
WHEREAS,
Purchaser desires to purchase and the Company desires to sell shares of common
stock on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises hereof and the agreements set
forth
herein below, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
The
Offering.
Private
Offering.
The
securities offered by this Agreement are being offered in a private offering
(the "Offering") of up to 2,400,000 shares (“Shares”) of common stock, $.001 par
value per share (“Common Stock”); provided, however, that in the event of any
over-allotments of Shares during the offering period, the Company reserves
the
right to sell in excess of 2,400,000 Shares to cover such over-allotments.
The
Shares will be sold on a reasonable “best efforts” basis at a purchase price of
$.44 per Share (“Purchase Price”) pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D and
Regulation S (to non-U.S. persons), each under the Securities Act of 1933,
as
amended (the “Securities Act”). The Shares are being offered solely to a limited
number of “accredited investors” (including certain non-U.S. persons) as that
term is defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act during an offering period
that will terminate at the sole discretion of the Company. The Shares are
sometimes referred to herein as the “Securities.” The business of the Company
and certain material risk factors applicable to the Company, its business
and
this Offering are described in the Summary Investment Memorandum attached
hereto
and made a part hereof as Exhibit
A.
Use
of
Proceeds.
Assuming all 2,400,000 Shares are sold, the net proceeds to the Company are
estimated to be approximately $1,000,000 (after deducting offering expenses
payable by the Company estimated at $3,200 and assuming payment of the maximum
amount of fees to brokers and dealers of up to $52,800). The Company intends
to
use the net proceeds for general working capital purposes and other general
corporate purposes, including acquiring a company operating in the logistics
business.
Placement
and Finder’s Fees.
The
Company reserves the right to pay fees to brokers and dealers in connection
with
the sale of the Securities in an amount equal to up to five percent (5%)
of the
Purchase Price of such Securities.
Sale
and Purchase of Securities.
Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company agrees to sell, and Purchaser
agrees to purchase, the number of Shares specified on the signature page
of this
Agreement at a purchase price of $.44 per Share. The aggregate purchase price
for the Shares shall be as set forth on the signature page hereto (the "Purchase
Price") and shall be payable upon execution hereof by check or wire transfer
of
immediately available funds. All funds representing the Purchase Price will
be
held in a segregated account on behalf of the Company (and not available
for
general application) until all closing conditions are satisfied. The closing
conditions consist of: (i) the Company’s acceptance of an executed Agreement;
and (ii) the occurrence of the “Change of Control Transactions” referred to
within the Summary Investment Memorandum attached hereto and made a part
hereof
as Exhibit A. This Offering will automatically terminate if the closing
conditions do not occur by November 1, 2005. Thereafter, any funds being
held on
behalf of the Company representing the Purchase Price will be returned to
all
Purchasers.
Subscription
Procedure.
In
order to purchase Securities, Purchaser shall deliver to the Company, at
its
principal executive office identified in Section 16 hereof: (i) one completed
and duly executed copy of this Agreement; and (ii) immediately available
funds
in an amount equal to the Purchase Price. Execution and delivery of this
Agreement shall constitute an irrevocable subscription for that number of
Securities set forth on the signature page hereto. Payment for the Securities
may be made by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company or on
behalf of the Company or by check made payable to: Golf Two, Inc., 0000 Xxxxxx
Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000. The minimum purchase that may
be
made by a Purchaser is 113,636 Shares for a purchase price of $50,000, although
the Company may, in its sole discretion, accept Agreements for a lesser number
of Shares. This Agreement may be rejected by the Company, in whole or in
part,
in its sole discretion, in which event the Purchase Price will be returned
(by
mail) to Purchaser within ten (10) business days thereafter. Unless the Offering
is otherwise terminated by the Company, as soon as possible after the receipt
and acceptance by the Company of this Agreement and collection of the funds
paid
therefor, the Company will issue certificates for the Shares to
Purchaser.
Representations
and Warranties of Purchaser.
Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
Organization

If
Purchaser is an entity, Purchaser is duly organized, validly existing and
in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, with the
corporate or other entity power and authority to own and operate its business
as
presently conducted, except where the failure to be or have any of the foregoing
would not have a material adverse effect on Purchaser, and Purchaser is duly
qualified as a foreign corporation or other entity to do business and is
in good
standing in each jurisdiction where the character of its properties owned
or
held under lease or the nature of their activities makes such qualification
necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified or in good standing
as
would not have a material adverse effect on it.
If
Purchaser is an entity, the address of its principal place of business is
as set
forth on the signature page hereto, and if Purchaser is an individual, the
address of its principal residence is as set forth on the signature page
hereto.

Validity and Effect of Agreement.

power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and perform its
obligations under this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement
by Purchaser, the performance by Purchaser of its obligations hereunder and
all
other necessary corporate or other entity action on the part of Purchaser
have
been duly authorized by its board of directors or similar governing body,
and no
other corporate or other entity proceedings on the part of Purchaser is
necessary for Purchaser to execute and deliver this Agreement and perform
its
obligations hereunder.
This
Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by
Purchaser and, assuming it has been duly and validly executed and delivered
by
the Company, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser,
in
accordance with its terms.
No
Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.
Neither
the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser nor the performance
by
Purchaser of its obligations hereunder will: (i) if Purchaser is an entity,
conflict with Purchaser’s articles of incorporation or bylaws, or other similar
organizational documents; (ii) violate any statute, law, ordinance, rule
or
regulation, applicable to Purchaser or any of the properties or assets of
Purchaser; or (iii) violate, breach, be in conflict with or constitute a
default
(or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute
a
default) under, or permit the termination of any provision of, or result
in the
termination of, the acceleration of the maturity of, or the acceleration
of the
performance of any obligation of Purchaser under, or result in the creation
or
imposition of any lien upon any properties, assets or business of Purchaser
under, any material contract or any order, judgment or decree to which Purchaser
is a party or by which it or any of its assets or properties is bound or
encumbered except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such violations,
breaches, conflicts, defaults or other occurrences which, individually or
in the
aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on its obligation to
perform
its covenants under this Agreement.
Accredited
Investor.
Purchaser
is an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation
D under the Securities Act. If Purchaser is an entity, Purchaser was not
formed
for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities, and, if it was, all
of
Purchaser’s equity owners are “accredited investors” as defined
above.
No
Government Review.
Purchaser understands that neither the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) nor any securities commission or other governmental authority
of any state, country or other jurisdiction has approved the issuance of
the
Securities or passed upon or endorsed the merits of the Securities, this
Agreement, the Summary Investment Memorandum or any of the other documents
relating to the proposed Offering (collectively, the “Offering Documents”), or
confirmed the accuracy of, determined the adequacy of, or reviewed this
Agreement, the Summary Investment Memorandum or the other Offering
Documents.
Investment
Intent.
The
Securities are being acquired for the Purchaser’s own account for investment
purposes only, not as a nominee or agent and not with a view to the resale
or
distribution of any part thereof, and Purchaser has no present intention
of
selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same.
By
executing this Agreement, Purchaser further represents that Purchaser does
not
have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person
to
sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or third person with
respect to any of the Securities.
Restrictions
on Transfer.
Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” as such
term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and have not been
registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any
state
securities law, and may not be, directly or indirectly, sold, transferred,
offered for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of without
registration under the Securities Act and registration or qualification under
applicable state securities laws or the availability of an exemption therefrom.
In any case where such an exemption is relied upon by Purchaser from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and the registration or
qualification requirements of such state securities laws, Purchaser shall
furnish the Company with an opinion of counsel stating that the proposed
sale or
other disposition of such securities may be effected without registration
under
the Securities Act and will not result in any violation of any applicable
state
securities laws relating to the registration or qualification of securities
for
sale, such counsel and opinion to be satisfactory to the Company. Purchaser
acknowledges that it is able to bear the economic risks of an investment
in the
Securities for an indefinite period of time, and that its overall commitment
to
investments that are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to its
net
worth.
Investment
Experience.
Purchaser has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in financial,
tax
and business matters in general, and investments in securities in particular,
that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment
in the
Securities, and Purchaser has made such investigations in connection herewith
as
it deemed necessary or desirable so as to make an informed investment decision
without relying upon the Company for legal or tax advice related to this
investment. In making its decision to acquire the Securities, Purchaser has
not
relied upon any information other than information provided to Purchaser
by the
Company or its representatives and contained herein and in the other Offering
Documents.
Access
to Information.
Purchaser acknowledges that it has had access to and has reviewed all documents
and records relating to the Company, including, but not limited to, the
Company’s Schedule 14f filed with the SEC on September 28, 2005, that it has
deemed necessary in order to make an informed investment decision with respect
to an investment in the Securities; that it has had the opportunity to ask
representatives of the Company certain questions and request certain additional
information regarding the terms and conditions
of such investment and the finances, operations, business and prospects of
the
Company and has had any and all such questions and requests answered
to its satisfaction; and that it understands the risks and other considerations
relating to such investment.
Reliance
on Representations. Purchaser
understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance
on
specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the federal and
state
securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and
accuracy of, and such Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations,
warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser
set
forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and
the
eligibility of such Purchaser to acquire the Securities. Purchaser
represents and warrants to the Company that any information that Purchaser
has
heretofore furnished or furnishes herewith to the Company is complete and
accurate, and further represents and warrants that it will notify and supply
corrective information to the Company immediately upon the occurrence of
any
change therein occurring prior to the Company's issuance of the Securities.
Within five (5) days after receipt of a request from the Company, Purchaser
will
provide such information and deliver such documents as may reasonably be
necessary to comply with any and all laws and regulations to which the Company
is subject.
No
General Solicitation.
Purchaser is unaware of, and in deciding to participate in the Offering is
in no
way relying upon, and did not become aware of the Offering through or as
a
result of, any form of general solicitation or general advertising including,
without limitation, any article, notice, advertisement or other communication
published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media, or broadcast over
television or radio or the internet, in connection with the
Offering.
Placement
and Finder’s Fees.
No
agent, broker, investment banker, finder, financial advisor or other person
acting on behalf of Purchaser or under its authority is or will be entitled
to
any broker’s or finder’s fee or any other commission or similar fee, directly or
indirectly, in connection with the Offering, and no person is entitled to
any
fee or commission or like payment in respect thereof based in any way on
agreements, arrangements or understanding made by or on behalf of
Purchaser.
Investment
Risks.
Purchaser understands that purchasing Securities in the Offering will subject
Purchaser to certain risks, including, but not limited to, those set forth
under
the caption “Risk Factors” in the Summary Investment Memorandum.
Legends.
(i) The
certificates and agreements evidencing the Securities shall have endorsed
thereon the following legend (and appropriate notations thereof will be made
in
the Company's stock transfer books), and
stop
transfer instructions reflecting these restrictions on transfer will be placed
with the transfer agent of the Securities:

afford each such Selling Stockholder an opportunity to include in such
registration statement all or part of such Restricted Stock held by such
Selling
Stockholder. Each Selling Stockholder desiring to include in any such
registration statement all or any part of the Restricted Stock held by it
shall,
within five (5) days after the above-described notice from the Company, so
notify the Company in writing. Such notice shall state the intended method
of
disposition of the Restricted Stock by such Selling Stockholder. If a Selling
Stockholder decides not to include all of its Restricted Stock in any
registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Selling Stockholder
shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Restricted Stock
in
any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be
filed
by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the
terms
and conditions set forth herein. The Company may, without the consent of
the
Selling Stockholders, withdraw such registration statement prior to its becoming
effective if the proposal to register the securities proposed to be registered
thereby is abandoned.
(b)
In
the
event that any registration pursuant to Section 6.2(a) shall be, in whole
or in
part, an underwritten public offering of Common Stock on behalf of the Company,
all Purchasers proposing to distribute their Restricted Stock through such
underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form
with
the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company.
If the managing underwriter thereof advises the Company in writing that in
its
opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration
exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering
within a price range acceptable to the Company, the Company shall include
in
such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell,
and
(ii) second, the Restricted Stock and any other registrable securities eligible
and requested to be included in such registration to the extent that the
number
of shares to be registered under this clause (ii) will not, in the opinion
of
the managing underwriter, adversely affect the offering of the securities
pursuant to clause (i). In such a case, shares shall be registered pro rata
among the holders of such Restricted Stock and registrable securities on
the
basis of the number of shares eligible for registration that are owned by
all
such holders and requested to be included in such registration.
(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company's obligation in Sections
6.2(a) and 6.2(b) above shall extend only to the inclusion of the Restricted
Stock in a Registration Statement. The Company shall have no obligation to
assure the terms and conditions of distribution, to obtain a commitment from
an
underwriter relative to the sale of the Restricted Stock or to otherwise
assume
any responsibility for the manner, price or terms of the distribution of
the
Restricted Stock.
(d) The
Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated
by it under this Section 6.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration
without thereby incurring liability to the holders of the Restricted Stock,
regardless of whether any holder has elected to include securities in such
registration. The Registration Expenses (as defined in Section 6.5) of such
withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with
Section 6.4 hereof.
6.3. Registration
Procedures.
Whenever it is obligated to register any Restricted Stock pursuant to this
Agreement, the Company shall:
(a) prepare
and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to the Restricted
Stock in the manner set forth in Section 6.2 hereof and use its reasonable
best
efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as promptly
as
possible and to remain effective until the earlier of (i) the sale of all
shares
of Restricted Stock covered thereby, (ii) the availability under Rule 144
for
the Selling Stockholder to immediately, freely resell without restriction
all
Restricted Stock covered thereby, or (iii) two (2) years from the date of
this
Agreement;
(b) prepare
and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments)
and
supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective
for
the period specified in Section 6.3(a) above and to comply with the provisions
of the Act with respect to the disposition of all Restricted Stock covered
by
such Registration Statement in accordance with the intended method of
disposition set forth in such Registration Statement for such
period;
(c) furnish
to the Selling Stockholders such number of copies of the Registration Statement
and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus)
as
such person may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale
or
other disposition of the Restricted Stock covered by such Registration
Statement;
(d) use
its
reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the Restricted Stock covered
by
such Registration Statement under the state securities laws of such
jurisdictions as any Selling Stockholder shall reasonably request; provided,
however,
that
the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally
to
transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is
not
so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction;
(e) in
the
event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its
obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form,
with
the managing underwriter(s) of such offering. Each Selling Stockholder
participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its
obligations under such an agreement, as described in Section
6.2(b);
(f) immediately
notify each Selling Stockholder at any time when a prospectus relating thereto
is required to be delivered under the Act, of the happening of any event
as a
result of which the prospectus contained in such Registration Statement,
as then
in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state
a
material fact required or necessary to be stated therein in order to make
the
statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances
under
which they were made. The Company will use reasonable efforts to amend or
supplement such prospectus in order to cause such prospectus not to include
any
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 not misleading
in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made;
(g) prepare
and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration
Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement
as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with
respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration
Statement;
(h) use
its
reasonable best efforts to list the Restricted Stock covered by such
Registration Statement on each exchange or automated quotation system on
which
similar securities issued by the Company are then listed (with the listing
application being made at the time of the filing of such Registration Statement
or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable);
(i) notify
each Selling Stockholder of any threat by the SEC or state securities commission
to undertake a stop order with respect to sales under the Registration
Statement; and
(j) cooperate
in the timely removal of any restrictive legends from the shares of Restricted
Stock in connection with the resale of such shares covered by an effective
Registration Statement.
6.4. Delay
of Registration.
No
Selling Stockholder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction
restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of
any
controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or
implementation of this Section 6.
6.5 Expenses.
(a) For
the
purposes of this Section 6.5, the term "Registration Expenses" shall mean:
all
expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Section 6.2 of this
Agreement, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees,
printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public
accountants for the Company, fees under state securities laws, fees of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), fees and expenses
of
listing shares of Restricted Stock on any securities exchange or automated
quotation system on which the Company's shares are listed and fees of transfer
agents and registrars. The term "Selling Expenses" shall mean: all underwriting
discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Restricted Stock
and
all accountable or non-accountable expenses paid to any underwriter in respect
of such sale.
(b) Except
as
otherwise provided herein, the Company will pay all Registration Expenses
in
connection with the Registration Statements filed pursuant to Section 6.2
of
this Agreement. All Selling Expenses in connection with any Registration
Statements filed pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Agreement shall be borne
by the
Selling Stockholders pro rata on the basis of the number of shares registered
by
each Selling Stockholder whose shares of Restricted Stock are covered by
such
Registration Statement, or by such persons other than the Company (except
to the
extent the Company may be a seller) as they may agree.
6.6. Obligations
of the Selling Stockholders.
(a) In
connection with each registration hereunder, each Selling Stockholder will
furnish to the Company in writing such information with respect to it and
the
securities held by it and the proposed distribution by it, as shall be
reasonably requested by the Company in order to assure compliance with
applicable federal and state securities laws as a condition precedent to
including the Selling Stockholder's Restricted Stock in the Registration
Statement. Each Selling Stockholder shall also promptly notify the Company
of
any changes in such information included in the Registration Statement or
prospectus as a result of which there is an untrue statement of material
fact or
an omission to state any material fact required or necessary to be stated
therein in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading
in
light of the circumstances under which they were made.
(b) In
connection with the filing of the Registration Statement, each Selling
Stockholder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and
affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with
such
Registration Statement or prospectus.
(c) In
connection with each registration pursuant to this Agreement, each Selling
Stockholder agrees that it will not effect sales of any Restricted Stock
until
notified by the Company of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement,
and
thereafter will suspend such sales after receipt of telegraphic or written
notice from the Company to suspend sales to permit the Company to correct
or
update a Registration Statement or prospectus. At the end of any period during
which the Company is obligated to keep a Registration Statement current,
each
Selling Stockholder shall discontinue sales of Restricted Stock pursuant
to such
Registration Statement upon receipt of notice from the Company of its intention
to remove from registration the Restricted Stock covered by such Registration
Statement that remains unsold, and each Selling Stockholder shall notify
the
Company of the number of shares registered which remain unsold immediately
upon
receipt of such notice from the Company.
6.7. Information
Blackout and Holdbacks.
(a) At
any
time when a Registration Statement effected pursuant to Section 6.2 is
effective, upon written notice from the Company to Purchaser that the Company
has determined in good faith that the sale of Restricted Stock pursuant to
the
Registration Statement would require disclosure of non-public material
information, each Selling Stockholder shall suspend sales of Restricted Stock
pursuant to such Registration Statement until such time as the Company notifies
the Selling Stockholders that such material information has been disclosed
to
the public or has ceased to be material, or that sales pursuant to such
Registration Statement may otherwise be resumed.
(b) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that the Company undertakes
a primary offering of shares of its unissued Common Stock, which may also
include other securities (a "Primary Offering"), in which all of the shares
of
Restricted Stock are not included (such shares not included being the “Excluded
Shares”), the Selling Stockholder shall not effect any public sale or
distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act),
if
and when available, of any of the Excluded Shares, during the thirty (30)
days
prior to the commencement of any such Primary Offering and ending one hundred
twenty (120) days after completion of any such Primary Offering, unless the
Company, in the case of a non-underwritten Primary Offering, or the managing
underwriter, in the case of an underwritten Primary Offering, otherwise
agree.
6.8. Indemnification.
(a) The
Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Selling
Stockholder, such Selling Stockholder’s respective partners, officers,
directors, underwriters and each Person who controls any Selling Stockholder
(within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses caused by (i) any untrue statement of or alleged
untrue
statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus
or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) any
omission of or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated
therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any
violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in
connection with the offering covered by such registration statement
(“Violations”); provided,
however,
that
the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6.8(a) shall not
apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action
if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which
consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable in for
any
loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out
of or
is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity
with
written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such
registration by such Selling Stockholder, partner, officer, director,
underwriter or controlling person of such Selling Stockholder.
(b) To
the
extent permitted by law, each Selling Stockholder shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, each of its directors, its officers and each person,
if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any
underwriter and any other Selling Stockholder selling securities under such
registration statement or any of such other Selling Stockholder’s partners,
directors or officers or any person who controls such Selling Stockholder,
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to
which
the Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter
or
other such Selling Stockholder, or partner, director, officer or controlling
person of such other Selling Stockholder, may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as
such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise
out
of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only
to the
extent) that such Violation (i) occurs in reliance upon and in conformity
with
written information furnished by such Selling Stockholder to the Company
for use
in connection with such registration, (ii) occurs as a result of any failure
to
deliver a copy of the prospectus relating to such Registration Statement,
or
(iii) occurs as a result of any disposition of the Restricted Stock in a
manner
that fails to comply with the permitted methods of distribution identified
within the Registration Statement.
(c) Any
Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written
notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks
indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not
impair any Person's right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such
failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party), and (ii) unless in such
indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such
indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim,
permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed,
the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement
made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall
not be
unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or
elects
not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees
and
expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such
indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment
of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such
indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect
to such
claim.
(d)
If
the
indemnification provided for in this Section 6.8 is held by a court
of
competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect
to
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying
party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to
the
extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the amount paid or payable
by
such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability
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 violation(s) described in Section 6.8(a) that resulted
in
such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to,
among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact
or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied
by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission; provided,
that in
no event shall any contribution by a Selling Stockholder hereunder exceed
the
net proceeds from the offering received by such Selling
Stockholder.
(e) The
indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force
and
effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified
party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified
party
and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company also agrees to
make
such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for
contribution to such party in the event the Company's indemnification is
unavailable for any reason.
