(c) Promptly after receipt by any Person entitled to indemnity (an "Indemnitee") under Section 6(a) or (b) hereof of notice of the commencement of any action or claim, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an Indemnitor (an "Indemnitor") under this Section 6, notify such Indemnitor in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any Indemnitee except to the extent of any actual prejudice. In case any such action shall be brought against any Indemnitee and it shall notify an Indemnitor of the commencement thereof, such Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other Indemnitor similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnitee, and, after notice from the Indemnitor to such Indemnitee of its election so to assume the defense thereof, such Indemnitor shall not be liable to such Indemnitee under this Section 6 for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Indemnitee, in connection with the defense thereof, unless the Indemnitee identifies issues which would be reasonably likely to create a conflict of interest between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor, in which case the Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain counsel and participate in the defense of the claim or demand at the expense of the Indemnitor. No Indemnitor shall, without the written consent of the Indemnitee, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnitee is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such action or claim and -12- 13 (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnitee. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee under Section 6(a) or (b) hereof in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each Indemnitor shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnitor and Indemnitee shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnitor or by such Indemnitee, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6(d) were determined solely by pro rata allocation (even if the Electing Holders or any underwriters, selling agents or other securities professionals or all of them were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 6(d). The amount paid or payable by an Indemnitee as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. 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. The obligations of the Electing Holders and any underwriters, selling agents or other securities professionals in this Section 6(d) to contribute shall be several in proportion to the percentage of principal amount of Applicable Securities registered or underwritten, as the case may be, by them and not joint. (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, in no event will (i) the Holder be required to undertake liability to any Person under this Section 6 for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by such Holder from the sale of such Holder's Applicable Securities (after deducting any fees, discounts and commissions applicable thereto) pursuant to any Registration Statement under which such Applicable Securities are to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii) any Underwriter, selling agent or other securities professional be required to undertake liability to any Person hereunder for any amounts in excess of the discount, commission or other compensation payable to such Underwriter, selling agent or other securities professional with respect to the Applicable Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public. The obligation of the Company under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnitee and the obligations of any Indemnified Person under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which such Indemnified Person may otherwise have to the Company. The remedies provided in this Section are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to an Indemnitee at law or in equity. -13- 14 7. Effectiveness; Termination. (a) This Agreement shall become effective immediately upon the occurrence of the Closing. (b) This Agreement shall terminate in the event that the Financing Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing in accordance with its terms. (c) In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7(b) hereof, this Agreement shall thereafter become void and have no effect, and no party hereto shall have any liability to the other parties hereto or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers or employees. 8. Miscellaneous.

(h) The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other provisions set forth in this Agreement or made pursuant hereto shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the Holder, any director, officer or partner of the Holder, any agent or underwriter, any director, officer or partner of such agent or underwriter, or any controlling person of any of the foregoing, and shall survive the transfer and registration of the Applicable Securities of such Holder. -15- 16 (i) The Holder shall cooperate with respect to any Registration effected under this Agreement and shall provide such information, documents, and instruments as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.
