Exhibit 10.1

FORM OF INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

This Indemnification Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated as of July 22, 2005, by and between Omtool, Ltd., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [Name], a director [and/or officer] of the Company (the “Indemnitee”):

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Indemnitee is presently serving as a director [and/or officer]  of the Company, and the Company desires the Indemnitee to continue in such capacity; and

WHEREAS, the Indemnitee is willing, subject to certain conditions (including the execution and performance of this Agreement by the Company), to continue in that capacity;

NOW, THEREFORE, to induce the Indemnitee to continue to serve in his present capacity and in consideration of these premises and the mutual agreements set forth in this Agreement, the Company and the Indemnitee agree as follows:

1.                                       Continued Service.  The Indemnitee will continue to serve as a director [and/or officer] of the Company so long as he is duly elected and qualified in accordance with the Company’s restated by-laws (the “By-Laws”) or until he resigns in writing or is removed from office in accordance with applicable law.

2.                                       Initial Indemnity.  (a)  The Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (including any proceeding before any administrative or legislative body or agency) (other than an action by or in the right of the Company), by reason of the fact that he is or was or had agreed to become a director [and/or officer] of the Company, or is or was serving or had agreed to serve at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against any and all costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, liabilities and/or amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or imposed upon the Indemnitee in connection therewith and any appeal therefrom if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, or unless such indemnification is prohibited by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”).  The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendre or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not satisfy the foregoing standard of conduct to the extent applicable thereto.

(b)                                 The Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was or had agreed to become a director [and/or officer] of the Company, or is or was serving or had agreed to serve at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, liabilities and/or amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him in connection with the defense or settlement thereof or any appeal therefrom if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and except that no indemnification shall be made if such indemnification is prohibited by the DGCL or in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which the Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action, suit or proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, the Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses that the court shall deem proper.

(c)                                  To the extent that the Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise, including without limitation the dismissal of an action without prejudice, in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 2(a) or 2(b) hereof or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, liabilities and/or amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him in connection therewith.

(d)                                 Any indemnification under Sections 2(a) or 2(b) hereof (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination in accordance with Section 4 hereof or any applicable provision of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Charter”), By-Laws, other agreement, resolution or otherwise.  Such determination shall be made (i) by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, (ii) if such a quorum of disinterested directors is not available or so directs, by independent legal counsel (designated in the manner provided below in this subsection (d)) in a written opinion or (iii) by the stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholders”).  Independent legal counsel shall be designated by vote of a majority of the disinterested directors; provided, however, that if the Board is unable or fails to so designate, such designation shall be made by the Indemnitee subject to the approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld).  Independent legal counsel shall not be any person or firm who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or the Indemnitee in an action to determine the Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement.  The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such independent legal counsel and to indemnify fully such counsel against costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such counsel in connection with this Agreement or the opinion of such counsel pursuant hereto.

3

(e)                                  All expenses (including attorneys’ fees) including by the Indemnitee in his capacity as a director [and/or officer] of the Company in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding in the manner prescribed by Section 4(b) hereof.

(f)                                    The Company shall not adopt any amendment to the Charter or By-Laws the effect of which would be to deny, diminish or encumber the Indemnitee’s rights to indemnity pursuant to the Charter, By-Laws, the DGCL or any other applicable law as applied to any act or failure to act occurring in whole or in part prior to the date (the “Effective Date”) upon which the amendment was approved by the Board of Directors or the Stockholders, as the case may be.  In the event that the Company shall adopt any amendment to the Articles or By-Laws the effect of which is to so deny, diminish or encumber the Indemnitee’s rights to indemnity, such amendment shall apply only to acts or failures to act occurring entirely after the Effective Date thereof unless the Indemnitee shall have voted in favor of such adoption as a director or holder of record of the Company’s voting stock, as the case may be.

3.                                       Additional Indemnification.  (a) Without limiting any right that the Indemnitee may have pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the Charter, the By-Laws, the DGCL, any policy of insurance or otherwise, but subject to the limitations on the maximum permissible indemnity that may exist under applicable law at the time of any request for indemnity hereunder determined as contemplated by Section 3(a) hereof, the Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee against any amount that he is or becomes legally obligated to pay relating to or arising out of any claim made against him because of any act, failure to act or neglect or breach of duty, including any actual or alleged error, misstatement or misleading statement, which he commits, suffers, permits or acquiesces in while acting in his capacity as a director [and/or officer] of the Company, or, at the request of the Company, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.  The payments that the Company is obligated to make pursuant to this Section 3 shall include without limitation judgments, liabilities, amounts paid as settlements, costs and expenses, of legal actions, suits or proceedings and appeals therefrom, and expenses of appeal, attachment or similar bonds; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated under this Section 3(a) to make any payment in connection with any claim against the Indemnitee:

(i)                                     to the extent of any fine or similar governmental imposition that the Company is prohibited by applicable law from paying that results in a final, nonappealable order; or

(ii)                                  to the extent based upon or attributable to the Indemnitee gaining in fact a personal profit to which he was not legally entitled, including without limitation profits made from the purchase and sale by the Indemnitee of equity securities of the Company that are recoverable by the Company pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and profits arising from transactions in publicly traded securities of the Company that were effected by the Indemnitee in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.

4

The determination of whether the Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3(a) may be, but shall not be required to, be made in accordance with Section 4(a) hereof.  If that determination is so made, it shall be binding upon the Company and the Indemnitee for all purposes.

(b)                                 Expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees) incurred by Indemnitee in defending any actual or threatened civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition thereof as authorized in accordance with Section 4(b) hereof.

4.                                       Certain Procedures Relating to Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

(a)                                  Except as otherwise permitted or required by the Charter, By-Laws or DGCL, for purposes of pursuing his rights to indemnification under Sections 2(a), 2(b) or 3(a) hereof, as the case may be, the Indemnitee shall be required to (i) submit to the Board a sworn statement of request for indemnification substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Indemnification Statement”) averring that he is entitled to indemnification hereunder; and (ii) present to the Company reasonable evidence of all expenses for which payment is requested.  Submission of an Indemnification Statement to the Board shall create a presumption that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under Sections 2(a), 2(b) or 3(a) hereof, as the case may be, and the Board shall be deemed to have determined that the Indemnitee is entitled to such indemnification unless within 30 calendar days after submission of the Indemnification Statement the Board shall determine by vote of a majority of the directors at a meeting at which a quorum is present, based upon clear and convincing evidence (sufficient to rebut the foregoing presumption), and the Indemnitee shall have received notice within such period in writing of such determination, that the Indemnitee is not so entitled to indemnification, which notice shall disclose with particularity the evidence in support of the Board’s determination.  The foregoing notice shall be sworn to by all persons who participated in the determination and voted to deny indemnification.  The provisions of this Section 4(a) are intended to be procedural only and shall not affect the right of the Indemnitee to indemnification under this Agreement, and any determination by the Board that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification and any failure to make the payments requested in the Indemnification Statement shall be subject to judicial review as provided in Section 7 hereof.

(b)                                 For purposes of determining whether to authorize advancement of expenses pursuant to Section 2(e) or 3(b) hereof, the Indemnitee shall submit to the Board a sworn statement of request for advancement of expenses substantially in the form of Exhibit 2 attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Undertaking”), averring that (i) he has reasonably incurred or will reasonably incur actual expenses in defending an actual civil or criminal action, suit, proceeding or claim and (ii) he undertakes to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company under this Agreement or otherwise. Upon receipt of an Undertaking, the Board shall within 10 calendar days authorize immediate payment of the expenses stated in the Undertaking, whereupon such payments shall immediately be made by the Company.  No security shall be required in connection with any

5

Undertaking and any Undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the Indemnitee’s ability to make repayment.

5.                                       Subrogation; Duplication of Payments.  (a)  In the event of payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may be necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

(b)                                 The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment in connection with any claim made against the Indemnitee to the extent the Indemnitee has actually received payment (under any insurance policy, the Charter, the By-Laws or otherwise) of the amounts otherwise payable hereunder.

6.                                       Enforcement.  (a)  If a claim for indemnification made to the Company pursuant to Section 4 hereof is not paid in full by the Company within 30 calendar days after a written claim has been received by the Company, the Indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim.

(b)                                 In any action brought under Section 5(a) hereof, it shall be a defense to a claim for indemnification pursuant to Sections 2(a) or 2(b) hereof (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the Undertaking has been tendered to the Company) that the Indemnitee has not met the standards of conduct that make it permissible under the Charter, By-Laws or DGCL for the Company to indemnify the Indemnitee for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Company.  Neither the failure of the Company (including the Board, independent legal counsel or the Stockholders) to have made a determination prior to commencement of such action that indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Charter, By-Laws or DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Company (including the Board, independent legal counsel or the Stockholders) that the Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

(c)                                  It is the intent of the Company that the Indemnitee not be required to incur the expenses associated with the enforcement of his rights under this Agreement by litigation or other legal action because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to the Indemnitee hereunder.  Accordingly, if it should appear to the Indemnitee that the Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement or in the event that the Company or any other person takes any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any action, suit or proceeding designed (or having the effect of being designed) to deny, or to recover from, the Indemnitee the benefits intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder, the Company irrevocably authorizes the Indemnitee from time to time to retain counsel of his choice, at the expense of the Company as hereinafter provided, to represent the Indemnitee in connection with the initiation or defense of any litigation

6

or other legal action, whether by or against the Company or any director, officer, stockholder or other person affiliated with the Company, in any jurisdiction.  Regardless of the outcome thereof, the Company shall pay and be solely responsible for any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees ) reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee (i) as a result of the Company’s failure to perform this Agreement or any provision thereof or (ii) as a result of the Company or any person contesting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any provision thereof as aforesaid.

7.                                       Merger or Consolidation.  In the event that the Company shall be a constituent corporation in a consolidation, merger or other reorganization, the Company, if it shall not be the surviving, resulting or other corporation therein, shall require as a condition thereto the surviving, resulting or acquiring corporation to agree to indemnify the Indemnitee to the full extent provided in Sections 2 and 3 hereof.  Whether or not the Company is the resulting, surviving or acquiring corporation in any such transaction, the Indemnitee shall also stand in the same position under this Agreement with respect to the resulting, surviving or acquiring corporation as he would have with respect to the Company if its separate existence had continued.

8.                                       Nonexclusivity and Severability.  (a)  The right to indemnification provided by this Agreement shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which the Indemnitee may be entitled under the Charter, By-Laws, the DGCL, any other statute, insurance policy, agreement, vote of stockholders or directors or otherwise, both as to actions in his official capacity and as to actions in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue after the Indemnitee has ceased to be a director [and/or officer].

(b)                                 If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected, and the provision so held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal shall be reformed to the extent (and only to the extent) necessary to make it enforceable, valid and legal.

9.                                       Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

10.                                 Modification; Survival.  This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof.  This Agreement may be modified only by an instrument in writing signed by both parties hereto.  The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the death, disability, or incapacity of the Indemnitee or the termination of the Indemnitee’s service as a director [and/or officer] of the Company and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnitee’s executors and administrators.

11.                                 Certain Terms.  For purposes of this Agreement, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; and references to “serving at the request of the Company” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company that imposes duties on, or involves services by, the Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan, its

7

participants or beneficiaries; references to the masculine shall include the feminine; references to the singular shall include the plural and vice versa; and if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan he shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company” as referenced to herein.

12.                                 Binding Effect; Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the successors, heirs, personal and legal representatives and assigns of the parties hereto, including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all, substantially all or a substantial part of the business or assets of the Company.  The Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect, and whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all, substantially all or a substantial part of the business or assets of the Company, by written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

13.                                 Consent to Jurisdiction.  The Company and the Indemnitee each hereby irrevocably consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of Delaware for any purpose in connection with any action or proceeding that arises out of or relates to this Agreement.

14.                                 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.
