The Company also agrees that Centrecourt Asset Management shall not have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with the engagement of Centrecourt Asset Management, except to the extent that any such liability is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from Centrecourt Asset Management's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

The indemnification provisions contained herein shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to Centrecourt Asset Management or the persons identified below in this sentence and shall extend to the following: Centrecourt Asset Management, its affiliated entities, partners, employees, legal counsel, agents and controlling persons (within the meaning of the federal securities laws), and the officers, directors, employees, legal counsel, agents and controlling persons of any of them. All references to Centrecourt Asset Management in these indemnification provisions shall be understood to include any and all of the foregoing.

If any action, suit, proceeding or investigation is commenced, as to which Centrecourt Asset Management proposes to demand indemnification, it shall notify the Company with reasonable promptness (but any failure by Centrecourt Asset Management to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company from its obligations hereunder except to the extent the Company is damaged by such failure); and the Company shall promptly assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, including the employment of counsel (reasonably satisfactory to Centrecourt Asset Management) and payment of fees and expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Centrecourt Asset Management shall have the right to retain counsel of its own choice to represent it and such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the Company and any counsel designated by the Company, but the fees and expenses of such counsel employed by Centrecourt Asset Management shall be at the expense of Centrecourt Asset Management unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Company in connection with the defense of such action, (ii) the Company shall not have promptly employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to Centrecourt Asset Management, or (iii) counsel appointed to represent Centrecourt Asset Management shall have reasonably concluded that there is a conflict of interest that precludes such counsel from representing the Company or its affiliates and Centrecourt Asset Management and its affiliates, in such event such fees and expenses shall be borne by the Company and the Company shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of Centrecourt Asset Management. The Company shall be liable for any settlement of any claim against Centrecourt Asset Management made with the Company's written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Centrecourt Asset Management, settle or compromise any claim, or permit a default or consent to the entry of any judgment in respect thereof, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes, as unconditional term thereof, the giving by the c1aimant to Centrecourt Asset Management of an unconditional release from all liability in respect of such claim.

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution, if a claim for indemnification pursuant to these indemnification provisions is made but it is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, even though the express provisions hereof provide for indemnification in such case, then the Company, on the one hand, and Centrecourt Asset Management, on the other hand, shall contribute to the losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses, and disbursements to which the indemnified persons may be subject in accordance with the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and Centrecourt Asset Management, on the other hand, and also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and Centrecourt Asset Management, on the other hand, in connection with the statements, acts or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements and all relevant equitable considerations shall also be considered. No person found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is also found liable for such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Centrecourt Asset Management shall not be obligated to contribute any amount hereunder that exceeds the amount of fees previously received by Centrecourt Asset Management pursuant to the Agreement.

Neither termination nor completion of the engagement of Centrecourt Asset Management referred to above shall affect these indemnification provisions which shall then remain operative and in full force and effect.
