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 Rights Shares by such Standby Indemnified Persons.

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 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 11 (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.
