directors, employees, agents, partners or controlling persons (within the meaning of the 1933 Act) (each, an “indemnified party”) from and against, and shall reimburse such indemnified party with respect to, any and all claims, suits, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses (“Liabilities”) to which such indemnified party may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, arising from or relating to (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such registration statement, any prospectus contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission so made in strict conformity with information furnished by such indemnified party in writing specifically for use in the registration statement.

(ii)           In the event of any registration under the 1933 Act of Registrable Securities, each holder of such Registrable Securities hereby severally agrees to indemnity, defend and hold harmless the Company, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, partners, or controlling persons (within the meaning of the 1933 Act) (each, an “indemnified party”) from and against, and shall reimburse such indemnified party with respect to, any and all Liabilities to which such indemnified party may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, arising from or relating to (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such registration statement, any prospectus contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; provided, that such holders will be liable in any such case to the extent and only to the extent, that any such Liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such holder specifically for use in the preparation thereof, and such Liability may in no event exceed the value of the Registrable Securities so registered.

(iii)          Promptly after receipt by any indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against another party (the “indemnifying party”) hereunder, notify such party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify such party shall not relieve such party from any Liability which it may have to the indemnified party other than under this Section and shall only relieve it from any Liability which it may have to the indemnified party under this Section if and to the extent an indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such omission.  In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party shall notify an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both parties and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to them which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of one such separate counsel and other reasonable expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.
