(d) Subscriber acknowledges that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available. Subscriber is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Act which permit limited resale of common stock purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things, the existence of a public market for the common stock, the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the sale being effected through a "broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a "market maker" and the number of shares of common stock being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. (e) Subscriber acknowledges that the Notes, ADM Warrants, AAN Warrants and shares of AAN' s common stock issuable upon the exercise of the AAN Warrants, in payment of interest on the Notes and upon conversion of the Notes, as the case may be are not currently publicly trading. (f) Subscriber acknowledges that Subscriber has had the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from the Company or any person acting on its behalf concerning the Company and its business and to obtain any additional information, to the extent possessed by the Company (or to the extent it could have been acquired by the Company without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify the accuracy of the information received by Subscriber. In connection therewith, Subscriber acknowledges that Subscriber has had the opportunity to discuss the Company's business, management and financial affairs with the Company's management or any person acting on its behalf.

(g) Subscriber has all requisite legal and other power and authority to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement and to carry out and perform Subscriber's obligations under the terms of this Subscription Agreement. This Subscription Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of Subscriber, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other general principals of equity, whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or law.

Subscriber relies solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Subscriber understands that Subscriber (and not the Company) shall be responsible for Subscriber's own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement. (i) This Subscription Agreement and the Purchaser Questionnaire do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit any material fact concerning Subscriber. (j) There are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending against Subscriber or Subscriber's properties before any court or governmental agency (nor, to Subscriber's knowledge, is there any threat thereof) which would impair in any way Subscriber's ability to enter into and fully perform Subscriber's commitments and obligations under this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. (k) The execution, delivery and performance of and compliance with this Subscription Agreement, and the issuance of the Securities will not result in any material violation of, or conflict with, or constitute a material default under, any of Subscriber's articles of incorporation or bylaws, if applicable, or any of Subscriber's material agreements nor result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge against any of the assets or properties of Subscriber or the Securities.

(p) Subscriber understands that any and all certificates representing the Securities and any and all securities issued in replacement thereof or in exchange therefor shall bear the following legend or one substantially similar thereto, which Subscriber has read and understands: "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND NEITHER THE SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS WHICH, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THIS CORPORATION, IS AVAILABLE." (q) In addition, the certificates representing the Securities, and any and all securities issued in replacement thereof or in exchange therefor, shall bear such legend as may be required by the securities laws of the jurisdiction in which Subscriber resides. (r) Because of the restrictions imposed on resale, Subscriber understands that the Company shall have the right to note stop-transfer instructions in its stock transfer records, and Subscriber has been informed of the Company's intention to do so. Any sales, transfers, or any other dispositions of the Securities by Subscriber, if any, will be in compliance with the Act. (s) Subscriber acknowledges that Subscriber has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and of making an informed investment decision. (t) Subscriber represents that (i) Subscriber is able to bear the economic risks of an investment in the Securities and to afford the complete loss of the investment; and (ii) (A) Subscriber could be reasonably assumed to have the capacity to protect his/her/its own interests in connection with this subscription; or (B) Subscriber has a pre-existing personal or business relationship with either the Company or any affiliate thereof of such duration and nature as would enable a reasonably prudent purchaser to be aware of the character, business acumen and general business and financial circumstances of the Company or such affiliate and is otherwise personally qualified to evaluate and assess the risks, nature and other aspects of this subscription. (u) Subscriber further represents that the address set forth below is his/her principal residence (or, if Subscriber is a company, partnership or other entity, the address of its principal place of business); that Subscriber is purchasing the Securities for Subscriber's own account and not, in whole or in part, for the account of any other person; Subscriber is purchasing the Securities for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution; and that Subscriber has not formed any entity for the purpose of purchasing the Securities. (v) Subscriber understands that the Company shall have the unconditional right to accept or reject this subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason or without a specific reason, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company (even after receipt and clearance of Subscriber's funds). This Subscription Agreement is not binding upon the Company until accepted by an authorized officer of the Company. In the event that the subscription is rejected, then Subscriber's subscription funds will be returned without interest thereon or deduction therefrom. (w) Subscriber has not been furnished with any oral representation or oral information in connection with the offering of the Securities that is not contained in the Memorandum and this Subscription Agreement.

(y) Subscriber has carefully read this Subscription Agreement and the Memorandum, and Subscriber has accurately completed the Purchaser Questionnaire which accompanies this Subscription Agreement. (z) No representations or warranties have been made to Subscriber by the Company, or any officer, employee, agent, affiliate or subsidiary of the Company, other than the representations of the Company contained herein, and in subscribing for the Securities the Subscriber is not relying upon any representations other than those contained in the Memorandum or in this Subscription Agreement. (aa) Subscriber represents and warrants, to the best of its knowledge, that other than the Placement Agent, no finder, broker, agent, financial advisor or other intermediary, nor any purchaser representative or any broker-dealer acting as a broker, is entitled to any compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement. (bb) Subscriber represents and warrants that he/she/it will have no open position in the Company's Common stock at the time a Registration Statement is filed with the SEC to register the Securities (the "Registration Statement") and is aware of the following Telephone Interpretation in the SEC Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations (July 1997): A.65. Section 5 An issuer filed a Form S-3 registration statement for a secondary offering of common stock which is not yet effective. One of the selling shareholders wanted to do a short sale of common stock "against the box" and cover the short sale with registered shares after the effective date. The issuer was advised that the short sale could not be made before the registration statement becomes effective, because the shares underlying the short sale are deemed to be sold at the time such sale is made. There would, therefore, be a violation of Section 5 if the shares were effectively sold prior to the effective date. (cc) Subscriber represents and warrants that he/she/it has complied with all applicable provisions of the Act, the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder, including Regulation M and applicable state securities laws, and will comply at the time of sale pursuant to the Registration Statement. (dd) Subscriber represents and warrants that Subscriber has: (i) not distributed or reproduced the Memorandum, in whole or in part, at any time, without the prior written consent of the Company and the Placement Agent, (ii) kept confidential the existence of the Memorandum and the information contained therein or made available in connection with any further investigation of the Company and (iii) refrained and shall refrain from trading in the publicly-traded securities of the Company or any other relevant company for so long as such recipient has been in possession of the material non-public information contained in the Memorandum. (ee) The obligations of each Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Subscriber, and no Subscriber shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement. Nothing contained herein, or in any other Agreement, and no action taken by any Subscriber pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Subscribers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement. Each Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of the Subscription Agreement or out of the other Offering documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Subscriber to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. 3.

Neither ADM, AAN nor any Subsidiaries has, nor any director, officer, agent, employee or other person acting on behalf of ADM, AAN or any Subsidiary has in the course of his actions for or on behalf of ADM or AAN, used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds; violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended; or made any bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee.

(u) Solvency. Each of ADM and AAN (both before and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Agreements) is solvent (i.e., its assets have a fair market value in excess of the amount required to pay its probable liabilities on its existing debts as they become absolute and matured), and currently ADM and AAN has no information that would lead it to reasonably conclude that ADM or AAN would not have the ability to, nor does it intend to take any action that would impair its ability to, pay its debts from time to time incurred in connection therewith as such debts mature. (v) Legends. Except for the legend contemplated by Section 2(p), the Securities shall bear no other legend. (w) No General Solicitation. Neither ADM, AAN nor any person acting on behalf of ADM or AAN has conducted any "general solicitation," as described in Rule 502(c) under Regulation D, with respect to any of the Securities being offered hereby.

Each of ADM and AAN and the Subsidiaries maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. (y) Compliance with Patriot Act. Neither ADM, AAN nor any Subsidiaries (i) is or will become a Person whose property or interests in property are blocked pursuant to Section 1 of Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001)) or (ii) knowingly engages or will knowingly engage in any dealings or transactions, or be otherwise knowingly associated, with any such person.

(aa) Form S-3 Eligibility. ADM is currently eligible to register the resale of the applicable ADM Securities on a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act.

The Company shall: (i) issue a press release accurately describing and disclosing the transactions contemplated hereby on the Closing Date, (ii) file with the SEC a report on Form 8-K or Form 10-QSB disclosing the transactions contemplated hereby within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, and (iii) timely file with the SEC a Form D promulgated under the Act as required under Regulation D and provide a copy thereof to Subscriber promptly after the filing thereof. (b) Furnishing of Information. So long as Subscriber owns any of the Securities, the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. If at any time while Subscriber owns any of the Securities, the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to Subscriber and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) promulgated under the Act annual and quarterly financial statements, together with a discussion and analysis of such financial statements in form and substance substantially similar to those that would otherwise be required to be included in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as well as any other information required thereby, in the time period that such filings would have been required to have been made under the Exchange Act. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of the Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holder to sell the Common Shares without registration under the Exchange Act under Rule 144 promulgated under the Act. Upon the request of any such holder, the Company shall deliver thereto a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements. (c) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, no less than the number of shares of common stock which are issuable upon conversion of the Notes, in connection with the payment of interest on the Notes, upon exercise of the ADM Warrants or upon exercise of the AAN Warrants. (d) Listing. The Company shall promptly seek the listing of all additional Registrable Securities not previously listed as such shares are issued on the securities exchange, market or other quotation system on which the common stock is then listed or traded and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of common stock shall be so listed, such listing of all such securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction Documents. Once listed, the Company shall maintain the common stock's authorization for listing on a securities exchange, market or other quotation system on which the common stock is then listed or traded. The Company shall promptly provide to Subscriber copies of any notices it receives from a securities exchange, market or other quotation system on which the common stock is then listed or traded regarding the continued eligibility of the common stock for listing on such a securities exchange, market or other quotation system. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section. (e) Notice of Breaches. Each of the Company and Subscriber shall give prompt written notice to the other of any breach by it of any representation, warranty or other agreement contained in any Transaction Document, as well as any events or occurrences arising after the date hereof, which would reasonably be likely to cause any representation or warranty or other agreement of such party, as the case may be, contained in the Transaction Document to be incorrect or breached as of and after the Closing Date. However, no disclosure by any party pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to cure any breach of any representation, warranty or other agreement contained in any Transaction Document. No breach, default or other action by or claim against one Subscriber will be deemed a breach, default or action of or claim against of any other Subscriber or in any way adversely affect the rights of the other Subscribers. (f) 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 Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Act of the issue, offer or sale of the Securities to Subscriber. (g) Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of common stock will result in dilution of the outstanding shares of common stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to issue shares of common stock in accordance with the terms of and with respect to the Notes, the ADM Warrants and the AAN Warrants is unconditional and absolute regardless of the effect of any such dilution. (h) Intentional Acts or Omissions. The Company shall not intentionally perform any act that if performed, or intentionally omit to perform any act that, if omitted to be performed, would prevent or excuse the performance of the Transaction Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the benefits intended to be secured thereby by the Investor. (i) Use of Proceeds. ADM and AAN shall use the proceeds from the sale of the Securities as described in the Memorandum. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the ADM and AAN shall not use such proceeds to make a loan to any employee, officer, director or stockholder of ADM or AAN, to repay any loan or other obligation of ADM or AAN to any such person, or to repurchase or pay a dividend on shares of common stock or other securities of ADM or AAN, other than any such payment explicitly required or permitted by the terms of the Transaction Agreements. (j) Transactions with Affiliates. Each of ADM, AAN and the Subsidiaries will not enter into any agreement or arrangement, written or oral, directly or indirectly, with an affiliate, or provide services or sell goods to, or for the benefit of, or pay or otherwise distribute monies, goods or other valuable consideration to, an affiliate, except upon fair and reasonable terms under circumstances as determined by ADM or AAN, as applicable, in good faith, taking into account all of the facts and circumstances of such agreement or arrangement, and except for existing intercompany debt or transaction with or between ADM or AAN and any of the Subsidiaries and payments and benefits to officers and directors in their capacities as such in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices. (k) Legend Removal. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon the earlier of (i) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement for either ADMT or AAN and receipt by ADMT or AAN, as the case may be, of a holder's written confirmation that ADMT common stock or AAN common stock, as the case may be, will not be disposed of except in compliance with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act becoming available to a holder, ADMT or AAN, as the case may be, shall, upon such holder's written request and delivery of all required documentation by the Company's securities counsel, promptly cause certificates evidencing the ADMT common stock or the AAN common stock, as the case may be, to be replaced with certificates that do not bear such restrictive legends. When ADMT or AAN, as the case may be, is required to cause unlegended certificates to replace previously issued legended certificates, if unlegended certificates are not delivered to such holder within three (3) business days following submission by such holder of legended certificate(s) to ADMT or AAN's transfer agent, as applicable, together with a representation letter in customary form, ADMT or AAN, as the case may be, shall be liable to such holder for liquidated damages in an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price of the ADMT common stock or AAN common stock, as the case may be, evidenced by such certificate(s) for each thirty (30) day period) beyond such three (3) business day period that the unlegended certificates have not been so delivered. ADMT or AAN's obligation to issue unlegended certificates pursuant to this paragraph shall be excused if (i) the SEC promulgates any rule or interpretation expressly prohibiting removal of legends in such circumstances; (ii) the SEC or other regulatory authority instructs ADMT or AAN, as applicable, or their respective transfer agent not to remove such legends, or (iii) the SEC makes it a condition to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement so that ADMT or AAN, as applicable, continues to keep such legends in place. 5. Indemnification. (a) Each of ADM and AAN agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Subscriber, its respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders and affiliates, and any person acting on behalf of the Subscriber, from and against any and all damage, loss, liability, cost and expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) which any of them may incur by reason of the failure by ADM or AAN to fulfill any of the terms and conditions of this Subscription Agreement, or by reason of any breach of the representations and warranties made by ADM or AAN herein, or in any other document provided by the Company to the Subscriber.

The Company shall have five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Objection Notice to correct such deficiencies to the satisfaction of the Objecting Party, and will notify each Selling Holder of any stop order issued or threatened by the Commission in connection therewith and take all reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered; (b) as promptly as practicable prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the period required pursuant to Section 2;

keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period which the Registration Statement is required to be kept effective; and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement;

and, as promptly as practicable thereafter, prepare and file with the Commission and furnish a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter deliverable to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (g) make generally available to the Holders an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act no later than thirty (30) days after the end of the 12-month period beginning with the first day of the Company's first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of a Registration Statement;

Each Selling Holder, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in subsection (f) of this Section 3, shall forthwith discontinue disposition of the Registrable Securities until such Selling Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by subsection (f) of this Section 3 or until it is advised in writing (the "Advice") by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, and, if so directed by the Company, such Selling Holder will, or will request the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to, deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Selling Holder's possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event that the Company shall give any such notice, the time periods for which a Registration Statement is required to be kept effective pursuant to Section 2 hereof shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each Selling Holder shall have received (i) the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(f) or (ii) the Advice. 4.

(a) All expenses incident to the Company's performance of, or compliance with, the provisions hereof, including without limitation, all Commission and securities exchange or NASD registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or "blue sky" laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with "blue sky" qualifications of the Registrable Securities), printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of the Company's officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the securities to be registered, if any, on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and its independent certified public accountants (including the expense of any special audit or "cold comfort" letters required by, or incident to, such performance), Securities Act liability insurance (if the Company elects to obtain such insurance), reasonable fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration, fees and expenses of other Persons retained by the Company in connection with each registration hereunder (but not including the fees and expense of legal counsel retained by a Holder or Holders, or any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities) are herein called "Registration Expenses." (b) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 except as otherwise set forth therein. Other than as specifically provided for in Section 2(a) hereto, all expenses to be borne by the Holders in connection with any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 (including, without limitation, all underwriting fees, discounts or commissions attributable to such sale of Registrable Securities) shall be borne by the participating Holders pro rata in relation to the number of Units of Registrable Securities to be registered by each Holder. 5. Indemnification; Contribution. (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each Holder, its officers, directors and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act), and any agent or investment adviser thereof, against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of investigation) arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any amendment or supplement thereto, any Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same arise out of or are based upon any such untrue statement or omission based upon information with respect to such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein; provided that, in the event that the Prospectus shall have been amended or supplemented and copies thereof as so amended or supplemented, shall have been furnished to a Holder prior to the confirmation of any sales of Registrable Securities, such indemnity with respect to the Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of such Holder if the Person asserting such loss, claim, damage or liability and who purchased the Registrable Securities from such holder did not, at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to such Person, receive a copy of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented and the untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in the Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented. (b) Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder is participating, each such Holder will furnish to the Company in writing such information with respect to the name and address of such Holder and such other information as may be reasonably required for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and agrees to indemnity, to the full extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue or alleged untrue statement relates to any information with respect to such Holder so furnished in writing by such Holder specifically for inclusion in any Prospectus or Registration Statement; provided, however, that such Holder shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that prior to the filing of any such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, such Holder has furnished in writing to the Company information expressly for use in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto which corrected or made not misleading information previously furnished to the Company. In no event shall the liability of any Selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Selling Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder agrees to give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party after the receipt by such Person of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat thereof made in writing for which such Person will claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to the provisions hereof and, unless in the judgment of counsel of such indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and the indemnifying party with respect to such claim, permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim. Whether or not such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. If the indemnifying party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus such local counsel, if any, as may be reasonably required in other jurisdictions) with respect to such claim, unless in the judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels. For the purposes of this Section 5(c), the term "conflict of interest" shall mean that there are one or more legal defenses available to the indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or such other indemnified parties, as applicable, which different or additional defenses make joint representation inappropriate. (d) Contribution. If the indemnification from the indemnifying party provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then the 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, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. 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 Section 5(c), any reasonable legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. 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. (e) If indemnification is available under this Section 5, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Sections 5(a) and (b) without regard to the relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable consideration provided for in this Section 5. 6. Transfer of Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities granted pursuant to the provisions hereof may be transferred or assigned by any Holder to a transferee or assignee; provided; however, that the transferee or assignee of such rights assumes the obligations of such transferor or assignor, as the case may be, hereunder. 7. Amendment Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate number of the Registrable Securities then outstanding.
