[A] The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Legend and its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and assigns from and against any and all losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities (including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) to which any of them may become subject in connection with the investigation, defense or settlement of any actions or claims: (i) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Information provided by the Company or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in any such Information or necessary to make the statements in any Information not misleading, provided such Information was used by Legend in rendering any Service hereunder; (ii) arising in any manner out of or in connection with the rendering of Services by Legend hereunder; or (iii) otherwise in connection with this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, cost, damage or liability arises out of any breach of this Agreement by Legend, or any misrepresentation or alleged misrepresentation of the material facts provided to Legend by the Company or arising from acts of gross negligence or malfeasance by Legend or any breach by Legend of this Agreement.

[B] Legend shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and assigns from and against any and all losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities (including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) to which any of them may become subject in connection with the investigation, defense or settlement of any actions or claims: (i) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any information provided by Legend other than Information provided to Legend by the Company ("Legend Information") or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in any such Legend Information or necessary to make the statements in any Legend Information not misleading; (ii) arising in any manner out of or in connection with the rendering of Services by Legend hereunder; or (iii) otherwise in connection with this Agreement; provided, however, that Legend will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, cost, damage or liability arises out of any breach of this Agreement by the Company or arising from acts of gross negligence or malfeasance by the Company or any breach by the Company of this Agreement

[C] Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any action, the party against whom an action is brought (the "Indemnified Party") shall, if a claim is also being made against the other party (the "Indemnifying Party") for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such action; provided that, the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved from any obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement to the extent that any delay by the Indemnified Party to provide notice to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section impairs or prejudices the Indemnifying Party's ability to assume and defend any such action. In case any such action shall be brought against the Indemnified Party it shall notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of such action, and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense of such action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party under this paragraph 13 for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such action; if the Indemnified Party retains its own counsel, then Indemnified Party shall pay all fees, costs and expenses of such counsel, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred.

14.	The Company acknowledges that Legend has made no guarantees that its performance hereunder will achieve any particular result with respect to the Company's business, stock price, trading volume, market capitalization or otherwise.

15.

All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be validly given, made or served if in writing and delivered in person or when received by facsimile transmission, or five days after being sent first class certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, or one day after being sent by nationally recognized overnight carrier to the party for whom intended at the address set forth after each Parties signatures.

16.

If any clause or provision of this Agreement is illegal, invalid or unenforceable under applicable present or future Laws effective during the Term, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected. In lieu of each clause or provision of this Agreement that is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, there shall be added as a part of this Agreement a clause or provision as nearly identical as may be possible and as may be legal, valid and enforceable. In the event any clause or provision of this Agreement is illegal, invalid or unenforceable as aforesaid and the effect of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability is that either party no longer has the substantial benefit of its bargain under this Agreement and a clause or provision as nearly identical as may be possible cannot be added, then, in such event, such party may in its discretion cancel and terminate this entire Agreement provided such party exercises such right within a reasonable time after such occurrence.

17.

The Parties agree and acknowledge that they have jointly participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and that this Agreement has been fully reviewed and negotiated by the Parties and their respective counsel. In the event of an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumptions or burdens of proof shall arise favoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

18.

This Agreement may not be modified, amended, supplemented, canceled or discharged, except by written instrument executed by all Parties. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver of any breach of any provision shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision, nor shall any waiver be implied from any course of dealing between the Parties. To be effective, all waivers must be in writing, signed by both Parties. The rights and remedies of the Parties under this Agreement are in addition to all other rights and remedies, at law or equity, that they may have against each other except as may be specifically limited herein.

19.

This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties in respect of its subject matter and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (oral or written) between or among the Parties with respect to such subject matter. The Parties agree that prior drafts of this Agreement shall not be deemed to provide any evidence as to the meaning of any provision hereof or the intent of the Parties with respect thereto. Any amendment or modification to the Agreement shall be by written instrument only and must be executed by a representative, with complete authority, from the Company and Legend.

20.	This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall bean original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A telecopy signature of any party shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as an original signature.
