4.2.           Furnishing of Information.  As long as any Investor owns the Securities, the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act.  As long as any Investor owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to the Investors and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for the Investors to sell the Securities under Rule 144.  The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to sell the Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.
 
4.3.           Integration.  The Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Investors, or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market in a manner that would require stockholder approval of the sale of the Securities to the Investors.
 
4.4.           Registrations Rights.
 
(a)           Registration Rights on the Shares.
 
(i)       No later than sixty (60) days after the Last Closing, the Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3 (or any similar or successor forms promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)) to include the Shares (the “Registrable Securities”) in such registration statement (the “Registration Statement”); provided that the amount of Registrable Securities shall be limited to not less than 100% of the maximum amount (“Rule 415 Amount”) of the Registrable Securities which may be included in a single registration statement without exceeding registration limitations imposed by the Commission pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act;
 
(ii)      The Company shall cause each Registration Statement required to be filed under this Agreement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as possible but, in any event, no later than the earlier of: (a) Two Hundred and Seventy (270) days after the initial Registration Statement is filed with the Commission, or (b) the fifth (5th) Business Day following the date on which the Company is notified by the Commission that the initial Registration Statement will not be reviewed or is no longer subject to further review and comments (such date, the “Required Effective Date”);
 
(iii)     The Company will pay all expenses associated with the registration, including, without limitation, filing and printing fees, the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for all selling holders which shall in no event execeed $5,000 and the Company’s counsel and accounting fees and expenses, costs, if any, associated with clearing the Registrable Securities for sale under applicable state securities laws;
 
(iv)     the Company shall have the right to delay, including, without limitation, by delaying the filing or effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning the Company the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the reasonable opinion of the Company in the best interest of the Company and, as applicable, suspend sales of Registrable Securities under an effective registration statement or suspend trading of its securities on any exchange, but in no event shall such delay or suspension take place on more than one occasion or for more than thirty (30) days; and
 
 
12

 
 
(v)      the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement with respect to the Investors to remain continuously effective for a period (the “Effectiveness Period”) that will terminate, with respect to the Investors, upon the earlier of (x) the date on which all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement have been sold or (y) the date on which all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement may be sold immediately without registration under the Securities Act and without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(b), as determined by reputable United States securities counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent and the affected Investors, and will advise the Investors when the Effectiveness Period has expired with respect to the Investors.
 
(b)           Investor Information. Each Investor shall (A) furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities, other securities of the Company held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect and maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, (B) execute such documents in connection with the Registration Statement as the Company may reasonably request and (C) immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any registration statement upon notice from the Company of (x) the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of the Registration Statement by the Commission, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction by the applicable regulatory authorities or (y) the happening of any event, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission 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 were made, not misleading or (z) the failure of the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act until the Investor’s receipt of a supplemented or amended prospectus or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required.
 
(c)           Indemnification.
 
(i)      In the event any Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement under this Section 4.4, to the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each of the Investors (including their officers, directors, members and partners), any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for the Investors and each person, if any, who controls such Investor or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each an “Investor Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law (“Claims”), insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein 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; and the Company will pay to the Investor Indemnified Person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.4 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Claim if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable to any Investor Indemnified Person for any such Claim 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 the Investor Indemnified Person. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Investor Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors.
 
 
13

 
 
 
(ii)
In the event any Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement under this Section 4.4 to the extent permitted by law, each Investor shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 4.4, the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the registration statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each, a “Company Indemnified Person”), against any Claim, insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in strict conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in the Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 4.4, such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any Company Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.4 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors.
 
 
(iii)
Promptly after receipt by an Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person (each, an “Indemnified Person”) under this Section 4.4 of notice of a Claim, such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 4.4, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall, by giving at written notice to the Indemnified Party within fifteen days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Claim, have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Indemnified Person to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. In the case of any Company Indemnified Person, legal counsel referred to in the proviso of the immediately preceding sentence shall be selected by the holders holding at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities included in the registration statement to which the Claim relates. The Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Person that relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Person reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Person of a full and general release from all liability in respect to such Claim or litigation, and such settlement (a) shall provide for the payment by the Indemnifying Party of money as sole relief for the claimant, (b) shall not include any finding or admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnified Person and (c) shall have no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Party.
 
 
14

 
 
Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 4.4, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.
 
4.5.           Indemnification of Investors.  In addition to the indemnity provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company Entities will jointly and severally, indemnify and hold the Investors and their directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (each, an “Investor Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs, disbursements and expenses, including all judgments, arbitral awards, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation (collectively, “Losses”) that any such Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to any misrepresentation, breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by any Company Entities in any Transaction Document.  In addition to the indemnity contained herein, the Company Entities will jointly and severally, reimburse each Investor Party for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation, preparation and travel in connection therewith) incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred.
 
4.6.           Non-Public Information.  The Company covenants and agrees that neither it, any Company Entity nor any other Person acting on its or their behalf will provide any Investor or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Investor shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information.  The Company understands and confirms that each Investor shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
 
4.7.           Listing of Securities.  The Company agrees (i) if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will include in such application the Securities, and will take such other action as is necessary or desirable to cause the Securities to be listed on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible, and (ii) the Company will take all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading Market and will comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.
 
 
15

 
 
4.8.           Use of Proceeds.  The Company will use the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder for working capital purposes and such other purposes as set forth on Schedule 4.8 hereto.
 
4.9.           Further Assurances.  The Company will, and will cause all of the Company Entities and their management to, use their best efforts to satisfy all of the closing conditions under Section 5.1, and will not take any action which could frustrate or delay the satisfaction of such conditions.  In addition, either prior to or following the Closing, each Existing Company Entity signatory hereto will, and will cause each other Company Entity and its management to, perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Investor to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any Transaction Document unless the same consideration is also offered to all Investors who then hold Shares.  The Company shall pay for any fees, including reasonable attorney’s fees for one counsel representing the Investors, incurred by the Investors in connection with any amendment to a Transaction Document.

(a)           by written agreement of the Investors holding a majority of the Shares to be issued at Closing pursuant to the terms hereof and the Company; and
 
(b)           by an Investor (as to itself but no other Investor) upon written notice to the Company, if the Closing shall not have taken place by 6:30 p.m. Eastern time on the Closing Date; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.4(b) shall not be available to any Person whose failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such time.
 
In the event of a termination pursuant to Section 6.4(a) upon delivery of a joint written notice from the Company and the Investors to the Escrow Agent or in the event of a termination pursuant to Section 6.4(b) upon delivery of written notice by an Investor to the Escrow Agent, such Investor shall have the right to a return of up to its entire Investment Amount deposited with the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 2.3 without interest or deduction.  The Company covenants and agrees to cooperate with such Investor in obtaining the return of its Investment Amount, and shall not communicate any instructions to the contrary to the Escrow Agent.

18

 
 
6.6.           Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.  The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Investors.  Any Investor may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Investor assigns or transfers any Shares, provided such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Shares, by the provisions hereof that apply to the “Investors.”  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for the avoidance of doubt, each Investor may freely transfer any Shares to any Person (including its Affiliates or any investment fund sponsored or advised by such Investor) without the consent of any of the Existing Company Entities or any other Investor.
 
6.7.           No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.5 (as to each Investor Party).
 
6.8.           Governing Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.  Each party agrees that all Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the New York Courts.  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of the any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such New York Court, or that such Proceeding has been commenced in an improper or inconvenient forum.  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.  If either party shall commence a Proceeding to enforce any provisions of a Transaction Document, then the prevailing party in such Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Proceeding.
 
6.9.           Survival.  The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares.
 
6.10.         Execution.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof.
 
6.11.         Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.
 
 
19

 
 
6.12.         Rescission and Withdrawal Right.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Investor exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Investor may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.
 
6.13.         Replacement of Securities.  If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested.  The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.  If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may require delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement.
 
6.14.         Remedies.  In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Investors and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
 
6.15.         Payment Set Aside.  To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Investor pursuant to any Transaction Document or an Investor enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
 
6.16.         Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights.  The obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document.  The decision of each Investor to purchase Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor.  Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Shares or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents.  Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.  The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor.
 
 
20

 
 
6.17.         Limitation of Liability.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the liability of an Investor arising directly or indirectly, under any Transaction Document of any and every nature whatsoever shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of such Investor, and that no trustee, officer, other investment vehicle or any other Affiliate of such Investor or any investor, shareholder or holder of shares of beneficial interest of such an Investor shall be personally liable for any liabilities of such Investor.

4.1           The Escrow Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth herein. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to enforce any obligation of any person to make any payment or delivery, or to direct or cause any payment or delivery to be made, or to enforce any obligation of any person to perform any other act.  The Escrow Agent shall be under no liability to the other parties hereto or anyone else, by reason of any failure, on the part of any party hereto or any maker, guarantor, endorser or other signatory of a document or any other person, to perform such person’s obligations under any such document.  Except for written instructions given to the Escrow Agent by the Escrowing Parties relating to the Escrow Funds, the Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to recognize any other agreement between or among the Purchasers and the Company, notwithstanding that references hereto may be made herein and whether or not it has knowledge thereof.

4.2           The  Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report, or other paper or document or any written instructions from the Escrowing Parties (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained), which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons.  The  Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any of the terms thereof, unless evidenced by written notice delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto.

4.3           The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the sufficiency or accuracy of the form, or of the execution, validity, value or genuineness of, any document or property received, held or delivered to it hereunder, or of any signature or endorsement thereon, or for any lack of endorsement thereon, or for any description therein; nor shall the Escrow Agent be responsible or liable to the Escrowing Parties or to anyone else in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights, of the person executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any document or property or this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the use or application of the Escrow Funds pursuant to the provisions hereof.

4.4           The Escrow Agent shall have the right to assume, in the absence of written notice to the contrary from the proper person or persons, that a fact or an event, by reason of which an action would or might be taken by the Escrow Agent, does not exist or has not occurred, without incurring liability to the Escrowing Parties or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, in reliance upon such assumption.

4.5           To the extent that the Escrow Agent becomes liable for the payment of taxes, including withholding taxes, in respect of income derived from the investment of the Escrow Funds, or any payment made hereunder, the Escrow Agent may pay such taxes; and the Escrow Agent may withhold from any payment of the Escrow Funds such amount as the Escrow Agent estimates to be sufficient to provide for the payment of such taxes not yet paid, and may use the sum withheld for that purpose.  The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless against any liability for taxes and for any penalties in respect of taxes, on such investment income or payments in the manner provided in Section 4.6 herein.

4.7            In the event that the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder or shall receive instructions, claims or demands which, in its opinion, are in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, it shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action, other than to keep safe the purchase information and purchase payments received, until the questions regarding its duties and rights are clarified to its satisfaction or it shall be directed otherwise by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
 
4.8            No provision of this Agreement shall require the Escrow Agent to risk or advance its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability or potential financial liability in the performance of its duties or the exercise of its rights under this Agreement.

4.9            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to perform any obligation hereunder and shall not incur any liability for the nonperformance or breach of any obligation hereunder to the extent that the Escrow Agent is delayed in performing, unable to perform or breaches such obligation because of acts of God, war, terrorism, fire, floods, strikes, electrical outages, equipment or transmission failures, or other causes reasonably beyond its control.

4.10          IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ESCROW AGENT BE LIABLE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS), EVEN IF THE ESCROW AGENT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION.

4.11          For purposes hereof, the term “expense or loss” shall include all amounts paid or payable to satisfy any claim, demand or liability, or in settlement of any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding settled with the express written consent of the Escrow Agent, and all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, whether or not the Escrow Agent uses outside counsel or its own attorneys, paid or incurred in investigating or defending against any such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding.
