Indemnification; Contribution
.
(a)        The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Selling Stockholder, its officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates and each Person that controls such Selling Stockholder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses, and expenses of investigation), arising out of or resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any applicable state securities law (or any rule or regulation promulgated under any applicable state securities law), except insofar as the same are contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Selling Stockholder expressly for use therein or by such Selling Stockholder's failure to deliver a copy of the Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after the Company has furnished such Selling Stockholder with a sufficient number of copies of the same.
(b)        To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Selling Stockholder shall indemnify the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates and each Person that controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses, and expenses of investigation) arising out of or resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Selling Stockholder;
provided
, that the obligation to indemnify shall be individual, not joint and several, for each Selling Stockholder and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such Selling Stockholder from the sale of Selling Stockholder Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement.
(c)        Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person's right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party's rights in the prior sentence, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel (and one local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and, based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party, the indemnified party shall have legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are inconsistent with or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after written notice of the institution of such action has been delivered to the indemnifying party; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall have requested the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party.  No indemnifying party shall, in connection with any one action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general circumstances or allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties.  If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).  No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein, to such indemnified party, of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.
(d)       The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the Transfer of Selling Stockholder Shares.
(e)        If the indemnification required by this
Section 2
from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in this
Section 2
:
(i)         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 violation referred to in this
Section 2
has been committed by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such violation.  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 2(a)
and
Section 2(b)
, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.
(ii)        The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 2(e)
were determined by a
pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in
Section 2(e)(i)
.  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.
