                         (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7.3 of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, indemnifiable hereunder such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 7.3, promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7.3 to the extent it is not prejudiced as a result of such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded, based on an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party, that there may be a conflict of interest between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7.3 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, reasonably satisfactory to such indemnifying party, representing all of the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. In no event shall any indemnifying party be liable in respect of any amounts paid in settlement of any action unless the indemnifying party shall have approved in writing the terms of such settlement; provided that such 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 or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
                         (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is required by its terms but is for any reason held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 7.3 in respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the

-20-


 

Company and the Purchaser from the private placement of Purchased Shares and the Warrant Shares hereunder or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but the relative fault of the Company and the Purchaser in connection with the statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties in this Agreement and/or the Registration Statement which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The respective relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and each Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the amount paid by such Purchaser to the Company pursuant to this Agreement for the Purchased Shares and the Warrant Shares purchased by such Purchaser that were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement bears to the difference between the amount such Purchaser paid for the Purchased Shares and the Warrant Shares that were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and the amount received by such Purchaser from such sale. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and each Purchaser on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or the inaccurate or the alleged inaccurate representation and/or warranty relates to information supplied by the Company or by such Purchaser and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph (c) of this Section 7.3, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in paragraph (c) of this Section 7.3 with respect to the notice of the threat or commencement of any threat or action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this paragraph (d); provided, however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any threat or action for which notice has been given under paragraph (c) for purposes of indemnification. The Company and each Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.3 were determined solely by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers 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 paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.3, the Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the Proceeds exceed the amount of any damages that such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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 Purchaser’s obligation to contribute pursuant to this Section 7.3 is several and not joint with the Other Purchasers.
                         7.4 Termination of Conditions and Obligations.

-21-


 

such time as an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and substance to the Company shall have been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act.
                         7.5 Information Available. The Company, upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser and with prior notice, will be available to the Purchaser or a representative thereof at the Company’s headquarters to discuss information relevant for disclosure in the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities and will otherwise cooperate with the Purchaser when conducting an investigation for the purpose of reducing or eliminating the Purchaser’s exposure to liability under the Securities Act, including the reasonable production of information at the Company’s headquarters, subject to appropriate confidentiality limitations.
                         7.6 Delay in Filing or Effectiveness of Registration Statement. If the Registration Statement is not filed by the Company with the Commission on or prior to the Filing Deadline, then for each day following the Filing Deadline, until but excluding the date the Registration Statement is filed, or if the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission by the Effective Deadline, then for each day following the Effective Deadline, until but excluding the date the Commission declares the Registration Statement effective, the Company shall pay the Purchaser with respect to any such failure, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount per 30-day period equal to 1.0% (prorated for a period of less than 30 days) of the purchase price paid by the Purchaser for the Purchased Shares pursuant to this Agreement; and for any such 30-day period, such payment shall be made no later than three business days following such 30-day period. If the Purchaser shall be prohibited from selling Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement as a result of a Suspension of more than thirty (30) days or Suspensions on more than two (2) occasions of not more than thirty (30) days each in any 12-month period, then for the period during which a Suspension (an “Excess Period Suspension”) is in effect that exceeds the maximum allowed period for a Suspension or Suspensions, but not including any day on which a Suspension is lifted, the Company shall pay the Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount per 30-day period equal to 1.0% (prorated for a period of less than 30 days) of the purchase price paid by the Purchaser for the Purchased Shares pursuant to this Agreement, and such payment shall be made no later than the first business day of the calendar month next succeeding the month in which any such Excess Period Suspension occurs. For purposes of this Section 7.6, a Suspension shall be deemed lifted on the date that notice that the Suspension has been lifted is delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.8 of this Agreement. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 7.6 shall not constitute the Purchaser’s exclusive remedy for such events. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event shall the Company be obligated to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this Section 7.6 (i) to more than one Purchaser in respect of the same securities for the same period of time or (ii) in an aggregate amount that exceeds 10% of the purchase price paid by the Purchasers for the securities purchased pursuant to the Agreements. Such payments shall be made to the Purchasers in cash.
                         SECTION 8. Broker’s Fee. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company intends to pay to the Placement Agent a fee in respect of the sale of the Purchased Shares to the Purchaser. The Purchaser and the Company hereby agree that the Purchaser shall not be responsible for such fee and that the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the

-22-


 

Purchaser and each Purchaser/Affiliate against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, joint or several, to which the Purchaser or Purchaser/Affiliate may become subject with respect to such fee. Each of the parties hereto hereby represents that, on the basis of any actions and agreements by it, there are no other brokers or finders entitled to compensation in connection with the sale of the Purchased Shares to the Purchaser.
                         SECTION 9. Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Purchaser under the Agreements. The decision of the Purchaser to purchase the Purchased Shares pursuant to the Agreement has been made by the Purchaser independently of any Other Purchaser. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by the Purchaser pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchaser and the Other Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchaser and the Other Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser acknowledges that no Other Purchaser has acted as agent for the Purchaser in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Other Purchaser will be acting as agent of the Purchaser in connection with monitoring its investment in the Purchased Shares or enforcing its rights under this Agreement. The Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
                         SECTION 10. Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified; (ii) when received by confirmed facsimile or (iii) one (1) business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight carrier, specifying next business day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

Each of the Company and the Purchaser irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

This Agreement and the rights of the Purchaser hereunder may be assigned by the Purchaser only with the prior written consent of the Company, except such consent shall not be required in the case of (i) any assignment by an investment adviser to a fund for which it is the adviser or by or among funds that are under common control, or (ii) subject to the restrictions on transfer of the Retained Warrants as contained in Section 4 of the Replacement Warrant Certificate, any assignment by any holder of Purchased Shares, Retained Warrants or Warrant Shares to any transferee or assignee of such securities to the extent such transfer of securities shall have not been consummated in violation of the provisions of this Agreement, provided that, in each such case, such assignee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
