The Company agrees that it will execute all necessary documents and pay all necessary state filing or notice fees to enable the Company to sell the Shares to the Purchaser.

 

4.4   Integration. The Company shall not and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate 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 Shares to the Purchaser.

The Company shall, for so long as any of the Shares remain outstanding and during any period in which the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, make available to any registered holder of the Shares (“Holder” or “Holders”) in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Shares from such Person, such information in accordance with Rule 144(c) promulgated under the Securities Act as is required to sell the Shares under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

4.8   Indemnification.

 

(a)   Indemnification

 

(i)   The Company shall, notwithstanding termination of this Agreement and without limitation as to time, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its officers, directors, agents, employees and affiliates, each Person who controls the Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each such Person, a “Control Person”) and the officers, directors, agents, employees and affiliates of each such Control Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, costs of preparation and attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, arising out of, or relating to, a breach or breaches of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by the Company under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

 

(ii)   The Purchaser shall, notwithstanding termination of this Agreement and without limitation as to time, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors, agents and employees, each Control Person and the officers, directors, agents and employees of each Control Person, to the fullest extent permitted by application law, from and against any and all Losses, as incurred, arising out of, or relating to, a breach or breaches of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by the Purchaser under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

 

(b)   Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

 

An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of the claim against the Indemnified Party but will retain the right to control the overall Proceedings out of which the claim arose and such counsel employed by the Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

 

All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party to which the Indemnified Party is entitled hereunder (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10) Business Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party.

 

No right of indemnification under this Section shall be available as to a particular Indemnified Party if there is a non-appealable final judicial determination that such Losses arise solely out of the negligence or bad faith of such Indemnified Party in performing the obligations of such Indemnified Party under this Agreement or a breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

(c)   Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under this Section is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold such Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses in respect of which this Section would apply by its terms (other than by reason of exceptions provided in this Section), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other and the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether there was a judicial determination that such Losses arise in part out of the negligence or bad faith of the Indemnified Party in performing the obligations of such Indemnified Party under this Agreement or the Indemnified Party’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any attorneys’ or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party.

 

(d)   Non-Exclusivity. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any obligation or liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties. 

 

 

 

5.1   Fees and Expenses. Except as set forth in this Agreement, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.

The Company shall pay all costs, expenses, fees and all taxes incident to and in connection with: (A) the issuance and delivery of the Shares, (B) the exemption from registration of the Securities for offer and sale to the Purchaser under the securities or Blue Sky laws of the applicable jurisdictions, and (C) the preparation of certificates for the Shares (including, without limitation, printing and engraving thereof), and (D) all fees and expenses of counsel and accountants of the Company.
