Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Standby Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of such Securities or New Shares by such Standby Indemnified Person.

(b) The Standby Purchaser, by acceptance thereof, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each other Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act (all such Persons being hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the “Company Indemnified Persons,” and together with the Standby Indemnified Persons, the “Indemnified Persons”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any of the Company Indemnified Persons may become subject (i) as a result of any breach by such Standby Purchaser or Additional Standby Purchaser of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any certificate delivered hereunder or (ii) under the Securities Act or any other statute or at common law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon information provided in writing to the Company by such Standby Purchaser or Additional Standby Purchaser specifically for use in any registration statement under which Securities were registered under the Securities Act at the request of such Standby Purchaser or Additional Standby Purchaser, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (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 such notice shall not limit the rights of such Person, except to the extent the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced thereby) 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; provided, however, that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses or (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person. If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party as permitted hereunder, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions hereof, such indemnifying party shall not settle or otherwise compromise the applicable claim unless (i) such settlement or compromise contains a full and unconditional release of the indemnified party or (ii) the indemnified party otherwise consents in writing, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will 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, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such additional counsel or counsels.

(d) (i) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 12 is unavailable to an Indemnified Person hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and Indemnified Person in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and Indemnified Persons 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, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, the indemnifying party or the Indemnified Persons, and their relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.

(ii) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 12(d) 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 the immediately preceding paragraph. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Section 14. Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, including any person to whom Securities are transferred in accordance herewith. This Agreement, or the Standby Purchaser’s obligations hereunder, may be assigned, delegated or transferred, in whole or in part, by either Standby Purchaser to any Affiliate (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) of such Standby Purchaser over which such Standby Purchaser or any of its Affiliates exercises investment authority, including, without limitation, with respect to voting and dispositive rights, provided that any such assignee assumes the obligations of such Standby Purchaser or the Additional Standby Purchaser hereunder and agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as such Standby Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions herein, no such assignment will relieve such Standby Purchaser of its obligations hereunder if such assignee fails to perform such obligations.

Section 15. Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties, or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein, with respect to the standby purchase commitments or the registration rights granted by the Company with respect to the Securities and the New Shares.

Section 16. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York (other than its rules of conflict of laws to the extent the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby).

Section 17. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

Section 18. Extension or Modification of Rights Offering. Without the prior written consent of the Standby Purchaser, the Company may (i) waive irregularities in the manner of exercise of the Rights, and (ii) waive conditions relating to the method (but not the timing) of the exercise of the Rights to the extent that such waiver does not materially adversely affect the interests of the Standby Purchaser.
