(e) If the indemnification provided in this Section 3.10 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to in this Agreement, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying partys and indemnified partys relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of Investor under this Section 3.10(e) shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by Investor in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a Party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3.10(a), 3.10(b) and 3.10(c), any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such Party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.10(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 3.10(e). No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 3.10(e) from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
Section 3.11 [Reserved].
Section 3.12 Rule 144. With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, Company covenants that it will (a) make available at all times information necessary to comply with Rule 144, if such Rule is available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, and (b) take such further action as Investor may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable them to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (if available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities), as such rule may be amended from time to time. Upon the request of Investor, Company will deliver to Investor a written statement as to whether Company has complied with such information requirements, and, if not, the specific reasons for non-compliance.
Section 3.13 [Reserved].
Section 3.14 Investor Information. Investor agrees, if requested in writing by Company, to represent to Company the total number of Registrable Securities held by Investor in order for Company to make determinations under this Agreement, including for purposes of Section 3.12.
Section 3.15 [Reserved].

Section 3.16 [Reserved].
Section 3.17 Adjustments. If there are any changes in the Equity Securities as a result of stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification, or through merger, consolidation, recapitalization or other similar event, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the provisions of this Agreement, as may be required, so that the rights, privileges, duties and obligations under this Agreement shall continue with respect to the Equity Securities as so changed.

Section 5.7 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction. The Law of the State of Delaware shall govern (a) all Proceedings, claims or matters related to or arising from this Agreement (including any tort or non-contractual claims) and (b) any questions concerning the construction, interpretation, validity and enforceability of this Agreement, and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, in each case without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES (WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

Each Party agrees and acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure in money the damages that would be suffered if the Parties fail to comply with any of the obligations imposed on them by this Agreement and that, in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved Party will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at Law. Any such Party shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which such Party may be entitled at Law or in equity) to seek injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, without the posting of any bond, and if any Proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the Parties shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at Law.
Section 5.9 [Reserved].
15

Section 5.12 Indemnification; Exculpation.
(a) Company will, and Company will cause each of its subsidiaries to, jointly and severally indemnify and hold Investor and each of its direct and indirect partners, equityholders, members, managers, Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, fiduciaries, controlling Persons, employees, representatives and agents and each of the partners, equityholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, the Investor Indemnitees) free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, liabilities, losses, damages and costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) incurred by the Investor Indemnitees or any of them on or after the date of this Agreement (collectively, the Indemnified Liabilities), to the extent arising out of any third party action, cause of action, suit, litigation, investigation, inquiry, arbitration or claim (each, an Action) arising directly or indirectly out of, or in any way relating to, the Investors or its Affiliates ownership of Equity Securities of Company or control or ability to influence Company or any of its subsidiaries (other than any such Indemnified Liabilities (w) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are liabilities of any Investor Indemnitee or its Affiliates pursuant to any indemnification obligation of such Investor Indemnitee or its Affiliates to Company or its Affiliates (other than such Investor Indemnitee or its Affiliates), under the Purchase Agreement, (x) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of any breach by such Investor Indemnitee or its Affiliates of this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement (to the extent such Investor Indemnitee or such Affiliate is a party thereto), any agreement referenced or contemplated thereby to which such Investor Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates is a party, or any other agreement between such Investor Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Company or any of its subsidiaries, on the other hand, in each case by such Investor Indemnitee or its Affiliates or other related Persons, or the breach of any fiduciary or other duty or obligation (whether arising by Law or contract) of such Investor Indemnitee or its
16
Affiliates to (A) its direct or indirect equity holders, creditors or Affiliates or (B) Company, any of its subsidiaries or their respective equity holders, (y) to the extent such control or the ability to control Company or any of its subsidiaries derives from the Investors or its Affiliates capacity as an officer or director of Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (z) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are directly caused by such Persons fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unavailable or unenforceable for any reason (other than by virtue of any exclusions herein), Company will, and will cause its subsidiaries to, make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. For the purposes of this Section 5.12, none of the circumstances described in the limitations contained in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to apply absent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to such effect, in which case to the extent any such limitation is so determined to apply to any Investor Indemnitee as to any previously advanced indemnity payments made by Company or any of its subsidiaries, then such payments shall be promptly repaid by such Investor Indemnitee to Company and its subsidiaries. The rights of any Invesror Indemnitee to indemnification under this Agreement will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other agreement or instrument to which such Investor Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under law or regulation or under the organizational or governing documents of Company or its subsidiaries.
(b) Company will, and will cause each of its subsidiaries to, jointly and severally, reimburse any Investor Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses and any other litigation-related expenses) as they are incurred by such Investor Indemnitee in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any Action for which the Investor Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 5.12, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom. Company or its subsidiaries, in the defense of any Action for which an Investor Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 5.12, may, without the consent of such Investor Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement if and only if the only penalty imposed in connection with such settlement is a monetary payment that will be paid in full by Company or its designated subsidiary and such settlement (i) includes as a term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such Investor Indemnitee of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Action, (ii) does not impose any limitations (equitable or otherwise) on such Investor Indemnitee, and (iii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Investor Indemnitee. No Investor Indemnitee shall settle, compromise or consent to any judgement in connection with any Action for which such Investor Indemnitee seeks indemnification under the terms of this Section 5.12, in each case without the written consent of Pubco.
(c) [Reserved].
(d) In no event shall any Investor Indemnitee be liable to Company or any of its subsidiaries for any act, alleged act, omission or alleged omission that does not constitute gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of such Investor Indemnitee as determined by a final, nonappealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for purposes of this Section 5.12, the term Invesor Indemnitees shall not include the Investor or its any of its partners, equityholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents or any of the partners, equityholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of
17
any of the foregoing who is an officer, director or employee of Company or any of its subsidiaries in such capacity as officer, director or employee. Such officers, directors and employees are or will be subject to separate indemnification in such capacity through this Agreement and/or the certificate of incorporation or organization, bylaws or limited partnership agreements and other instruments of Company and its subsidiaries.
(f) The rights of any Investor Indemnitee to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.12 will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other section of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which such Invesor Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under law or regulation or under the certificate of limited partnership, limited partnership agreement, certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or equivalent governing documents) of Company or any of its subsidiaries.
