INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.1

This Indemnity Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of , 2008, (the “Effective Date”) is made by and between Broncus Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and , an individual who is a director and/or officer of the Company (“Indemnitee”).

RECITALS

A. The Company is aware that competent and experienced persons are increasingly reluctant to serve as directors or officers of corporations unless they are protected by comprehensive liability insurance and/or indemnification agreements, due to their increased exposure to litigation costs and risks resulting from their service to such corporations, and because this exposure frequently bears no reasonable relationship to their compensation as directors and officers.

B. Section 145 (“Section 145”) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, under which the Company is organized (the “Law”) empowers the Company to indemnify by agreement its officers, directors, employees and agents, and persons who serve, at the request of the Company, as directors, officers, employees or agents of other corporations or enterprises, and expressly provides that the indemnification provided by the Law is not exclusive.

C. Based on their experience as business managers, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has concluded that, to retain and attract talented and experienced individuals to serve as officers and directors of the Company, and to encourage such individuals to take the business risks necessary for the success of the Company, it is necessary for the Company contractually to indemnify officers and directors and to assume for itself liability for expenses and damages in connection with claims against such officers and directors in connection with their service to the Company.

D. The Company desires and has requested Indemnitee to serve or continue to serve as a director or officer of the Company. The Company desires that Indemnitee be free from undue concern regarding claims for damages arising out of or related to such services, which may impair the free exercise of Indemnitee’s best business judgment on behalf of the Company, its subsidiaries and other enterprises affiliated with the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made in this Agreement, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

(c) during any period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months that begins on or after the Effective Date, the Incumbent Directors (as defined below) cease for any reason to constitute at least two-thirds (2/3) of the members of the Board then in office (where for purposes hereof, with respect to any particular period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months, the term “Incumbent Directors” means (i) the individuals who at the beginning of such twenty-four (24) consecutive month period constituted the Board and (ii) each other individual whose election or nomination for election to the Board during such twenty-four (24) month period was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors in office who were either members of the Board at the beginning of such twenty-four (24) month period or whose election or nomination for election to the Board was approved as described in this clause (ii));

(d) the Company is a party to a consummated merger or consolidation as a result of which the Voting Securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto do not represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity of such merger or consolidation or of a parent of such surviving entity), at least fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power represented by the voting securities of such surviving entity or a parent of such surviving entity immediately after consummation of such merger or consolidation; or

(e) the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (other than a sale or disposition of all or substantially all the Company’s assets to another entity that, immediately after such transaction is owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to the transaction in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the Company’s capital stock immediately prior to such transaction if the acquiring entity assumes this Agreement).

1.7 Proceeding. A “proceeding” means any threatened, pending or completed action, lawsuit, alternative dispute resolution mechanism (including but not limited to an arbitration or mediation) or other proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative.

2. Agreement to Serve. Indemnitee agrees to serve and/or to continue to serve as an officer or director of the Company, at the will of the Company (or under separate written agreement, if any such written agreement exists), in the capacity in which Indemnitee serves the Company as of the Effective Date, faithfully and to the best of Indemnitee’s ability, so long as Indemnitee is duly appointed or elected and qualified in accordance with the applicable provisions of the charter documents of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company; provided, however, that Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from such position (subject to any contractual obligation that Indemnitee may have assumed apart from this Agreement), and the Company or any subsidiary shall have no obligation under this Agreement to continue Indemnitee in any such position.

3. Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. The Company shall, to the extent that the Board determines it to be economically reasonable, maintain a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”), on such terms and conditions and in such coverage amounts as may be approved by the Board from time to time.

4. Mandatory Indemnification.

4.1 Third Party Actions. If Indemnitee was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was an agent of the Company, or by reason of anything done or not done by Indemnitee in Indemnitee’s capacity as an agent of the Company, then, subject to the provisions of Section 8 and the exceptions set forth in Section 9, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all expenses and liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such proceeding or being a witness in such proceeding if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, Indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.

4.2 Actions by or in Right of the Company. If Indemnitee was or is a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, any proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was an agent of the Company, or by reason of anything done or not done by Indemnitee in Indemnitee’s capacity as an agent of the Company, then, subject to the provisions of Section 8 and the exceptions set forth in Section 9, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any amounts paid in settlement of

any such proceeding and all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such proceeding or being a witness in such proceeding if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company; except that no indemnification under this Section 4.2 shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been finally adjudged to be liable to the Company by a court of competent jurisdiction due to Indemnitee’s willful misconduct of a culpable nature in the performance of Indemnitee’s duty to the Company, unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such amounts which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

4.3 Witness Expenses in Certain Proceedings. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that Indemnitee was or is, by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was an agent of the Company, a witness in any proceeding to which Indemnitee is not made a party or of which Indemnitee is not the subject, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf solely in connection with Indemnitee’s being a witness in such proceeding (including on appeal), and in preparing to be a witness in such proceeding without the need for any determination with respect to Indemnitee’s conduct pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement.

4.4 Exception for Amounts Covered by Insurance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify Indemnitee for expenses or liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) to the extent such have been paid directly to Indemnitee by D&O Insurance. To the extent that any payment payable by the carrier of D&O Insurance in respect of such expenses or liabilities has previously been paid or advanced to Indemnitee by the Company, the parties agree that the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of Indemnitee to receive such payments from the D&O Insurance carrier and that Indemnitee will take all actions reasonably necessary to turn over or otherwise cause the Company to receive any such payment from the D&O Insurance carrier.

5. Partial Indemnification and Contribution.

5.1 Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of any expenses or liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) incurred by Indemnitee in the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of a proceeding or in being a witness in a proceeding but is not entitled, however, to indemnification for all of the total amount thereof, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for such total amount except as to the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification.

5.2 Contribution. If Indemnitee is not entitled to the indemnification provided in Section 4 for any reason other than the statutory limitations set forth in the Law, then in respect of any threatened, pending or completed proceeding in which the Company is jointly

liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the amount of expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by Indemnitee in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (a) the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and Indemnitee on the other hand from the transaction from which such proceeding arose and (b) the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of Indemnitee on the other hand in connection with the events which resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties or settlement amounts, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of Indemnitee on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent the circumstances resulting in such expenses, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes, penalties or settlement amounts. The Company agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.2 were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the foregoing equitable considerations.

6. Mandatory Advancement of Expenses.

6.1 Advancement. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.2 and the exceptions in Section 9 below and except as prohibited by law, the Company shall advance all expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of any proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party or is threatened to be made a party or witness by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was an agent of the Company or by reason of anything done or not done by Indemnitee in Indemnitee’s capacity as an agent of the Company. Indemnitee hereby undertakes and agrees to promptly repay to the Company such amounts as are so advanced by the Company to Indemnitee only if, and to the extent that, it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company under the provisions of this Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, the Law or otherwise with respect to the proceeding or proceedings for which such expenses were advanced. Subject to the foregoing, the advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to Indemnitee within thirty (30) days following delivery of a written request therefor by Indemnitee to the Company which includes reasonable verification of the expenses incurred by Indemnitee for which an advance is sought.

6.2 Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 6.1, the Company shall not be obligated to advance any expenses to Indemnitee arising from a lawsuit filed or brought directly by the Company against Indemnitee or a criminal proceeding resulting from a complaint made by the Company if an Independent Majority (as defined below) of the Board reasonably determines in good faith, within thirty (30) days of Indemnitee’s request to be advanced such expenses, that the facts known to them at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that Indemnitee acted in bad faith with respect to the subject matter of such lawsuit or proceeding or the facts, circumstances or events from which such lawsuit or criminal proceeding arose (a “Section 6.2 Determination”). If such a determination that Indemnitee acted in bad faith is made, then Indemnitee may have such decision reviewed by another forum, in the manner set forth in Section 8, with all references therein to “indemnification” being deemed to refer to “advancement of expenses,” and the burden of proof shall be on the Company to demonstrate clearly and convincingly that, based on

the facts known at the time, Indemnitee acted in bad faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company has undergone a Change in Control after the occurrence of the acts or omissions of Indemnitee that are the primary focus of the lawsuit or criminal proceeding in question, then the Section 6.2 Determination with respect to such lawsuit or criminal proceeding must instead be made in good faith by Independent Counsel selected by an Independent Majority of the Board. As used in this Section, an “Independent Majority” of the Board means: (i) a majority of the members of the Board other than Indemnitee (if Indemnitee is then a member of the Board); or (ii) an absolute majority of the members of the Board if Indemnitee is not then a member of the Board.

7. Notice and Other Indemnification Procedures.

7.1 Notice of Proceeding. Promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of or the threat of commencement of any proceeding, Indemnitee shall, if Indemnitee believes that indemnification with respect thereto may be sought from the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company in writing of the commencement or threat of commencement thereof.

7.2 Notice to D&O Insurance Carrier. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of the commencement of a proceeding pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company has D&O Insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers providing such D&O Insurance in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable D&O Insurance policy or policies. The Company shall thereafter use diligent, good faith efforts to cause such insurers to promptly pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such D&O Insurance policies.

7.3 Assumption of Defense by the Company; Settlement. In the event the Company shall be obligated to advance Indemnitee’s expenses with respect to any proceeding, the Company, if appropriate, shall be entitled, at its option, to assume Indemnitee’s defense of such proceeding, with counsel approved by Indemnitee (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of its election to do so. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same proceeding, provided that: (a) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee’s own counsel in any such proceeding at Indemnitee’s own expense; (b) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee’s own counsel in connection with any such proceeding if such counsel serves solely in a review, observer, advice and counseling capacity and does not otherwise materially control or participate in the defense of such proceeding, and the Company shall advance, and/or indemnify Indemnitee for, the fees of such counsel to the extent the Company would be required to do so under the terms of this Agreement (without regard to the provisions of this Section 7.3); and (c) if (i) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been previously authorized by the Company, or (ii) Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense or (iii) the Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume Indemnitee’s defense of such proceeding, then the Company shall advance, and/or indemnify Indemnitee for, the fees of Indemnitee’s counsel to the extent the Company would be required to

do so under the terms of this Agreement (without regard to the provisions of this Section 7.3). The Company shall not be required to obtain the consent of Indemnitee to the settlement of any proceeding as to which the Company has assumed the defense if the Company assumes the full and sole responsibility and liability for such settlement and the settlement grants Indemnitee a complete and unqualified release in respect of the potential liability arising from such proceeding.

8. Determination of Right to Indemnification.

8.1 Successful Defense. To the extent Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any proceeding referred to in Section 4.1 or 4.2 of this Agreement or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter described therein, then subject to the provisions of Section 4.4, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the investigation, defense or appeal of such proceeding, or such claim, issue or matter, as the case may be.

8.2 Other Circumstances. In the event that Indemnitee seeks indemnification under Section 4.1 or 4.2 of this Agreement and Section 8.1 is inapplicable to such claim for indemnification, or does not apply to the entire proceeding, then subject to the provisions of Section 4.4, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee as provided in Section 4.1 or 4.2, as applicable, unless the Company shall claim and prove by clear and convincing evidence to a forum listed in Section 8.3 that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct required to entitle Indemnitee to indemnification under Section 4.1 or 4.2, as applicable.

8.3 Selection of Forum to Determine Entitlement to Indemnification. In the event that the Company claims that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to select the forum in which the validity of the Company’s claim under Section 8.2 that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification will be heard by one (1) forum from among the following, except that Indemnitee can select a forum consisting of the stockholders of the Company only with the prior written approval of the Company that is duly authorized by the Board:

(a) A majority of a quorum of the Board consisting of directors who are not parties to the proceeding for which indemnification is being sought;

(b) The stockholders of the Company;

(c) Independent Counsel mutually agreed upon by Indemnitee and the Board, which Independent Counsel shall make such determination in a written opinion;

(d) A panel of three (3) arbitrators, one of whom is selected by the Company, another of whom is selected by Indemnitee and the last of whom is selected by the first two arbitrators so selected, who will conduct the arbitration in San Jose, California pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association; or

(e) The Court of Chancery of Delaware or other court having jurisdiction of the subject matter and the parties.

8.4 Submission of Claim by Company. As soon as practicable, and in no event later than thirty (30) days after the forum has been selected pursuant to Section 8.3, the Company shall, at its own expense, submit to the selected forum its claim that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, and the Company shall act in the utmost good faith to assure Indemnitee a complete opportunity to defend against such claim.

8.5 Further Proceedings. If the forum selected in accordance with Section 8.3 is not a court, then after the final decision of such forum is rendered, the Company or Indemnitee shall have the right to apply to the Court of Chancery of Delaware, the court in which the proceeding giving rise to Indemnitee’s claim for indemnification is or was pending or any other court having jurisdiction of the subject matter and the parties, for the purpose of appealing the decision of such forum, provided that such right is executed within sixty (60) days after the final decision of such forum is rendered. If the forum selected in accordance with Section 8.3 is a court, then the rights of the Company or the Indemnitee to appeal any decision of such court shall be governed by the applicable laws and rules governing appeals of the decision of such court.

8.6 Court Proceeding. If the forum selected by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 8.3 to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification is not a court described in Section 8.3(e) and such forum shall not have made a determination within 120 days after the date on which the Company is required by Section 8.3 to submit to such forum its claim that Indemnitee is not entitled to such indemnification, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to apply to the Court of Chancery of Delaware or other court described in Section 8.3(e) to have Indemnitee’s request for indemnification adjudicated by such court in lieu of having the determination made by such forum. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication.

8.7 No Presumption. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court has determined that indemnification is not permitted by this Agreement or applicable law.

8.8 Section 8 Matters. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any hearing or proceeding under this Section 8 involving Indemnitee and against all expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any other proceeding between the Company and Indemnitee involving the interpretation or enforcement of the rights of Indemnitee under this Agreement unless a court of competent jurisdiction finds that each of the material claims and/or defenses of Indemnitee in any such proceeding was frivolous or not made in good faith.

9. Exceptions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement:

9.1 Claims Initiated by Indemnitee. To indemnify or advance expenses to Indemnitee with respect to proceedings or claims initiated or brought voluntarily by Indemnitee and not by way of defense, except with respect to (a) proceedings specifically authorized by the Board or (b) (subject to the provisions of Section 6.2 and Section 8.8) proceedings brought by Indemnitee to establish or enforce a right to indemnification and/or advancement of expenses arising under this Agreement, the charter documents of the Company or any subsidiary or any statute or law; or

9.2 Unauthorized Settlements. To indemnify Indemnitee hereunder for any amounts paid in settlement of a proceeding unless the Company consents in advance in writing to such settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; or

9.3 Certain Securities Law Actions. To indemnify or advance expenses to Indemnitee on account of any suit in which judgment is rendered against Indemnitee for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by the Indemnitee of securities of the Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, or similar provisions of any federal, state or local statutory law or Section 306(a) of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002; or

9.4 Unlawful Indemnification. To indemnify Indemnitee if a final decision by a court having jurisdiction in the matter shall determine that such indemnification is not lawful. In this respect, the Company and Indemnitee have been advised that the Securities and Exchange Commission takes the position that indemnification for liabilities arising under the federal securities laws is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable and that claims for indemnification should be submitted to appropriate courts for adjudication.

10. Non-Exclusivity. The provisions for indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights which Indemnitee may have under any provision of law, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, the vote of the Company’s stockholders or disinterested directors, other agreements or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee’s official capacity and to action in another capacity while occupying his position as an agent of the Company, and Indemnitee’s rights hereunder shall continue after Indemnitee has ceased acting as an agent of the Company and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators.

shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (b) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, all portions of any paragraphs of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that are not themselves invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable and to give effect to Section 11.1.
