In connection with a firm or best efforts underwritten offering, to the extent customarily required by the managing underwriter, each participating Purchaser will indemnify the underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls the underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act), to the extent customary in such agreements.

(c) Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement will (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) unless in the indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest may exist between the indemnified and indemnifying parties with respect to the claim, permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of the claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party does not assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement made without its consent (but that consent may not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or will enter into any settlement without the consent of the indemnified party (i) that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the claimant’s or plaintiff’s release of the indemnified party from all liability concerning the claim or litigation or (ii) that

- 12 -

contains any admission of guilt on the part of any indemnified party. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to or elects not to assume the defense of a claim will not be under an obligation to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel in each applicable jurisdiction for all parties indemnified by the indemnifying party with respect to the claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between the indemnified party and any other indemnified party with respect to the claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of no more than one additional counsel for the indemnified parties.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 5.3(a) or 5.3(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, (the “Unindemnified Losses”) then each party responsible for indemnification under Section 5.3(a) or 5.3(b) shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of any Unindemnified Losses in the proportion appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and the participating Purchasers in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in the Unindemnified Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company and the participating Purchasers will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the participating Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, and opportunity to correct the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact.

The parties to this Agreement agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant this Section 5.3(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Purchaser contributing pursuant to this Section 5.3(d) will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the lesser of (i) the net proceeds of the offering (before deducting expenses, if any) received by that Purchaser, less the amount of any damages that the Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and (ii) the proportion of the total losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses indemnified against equal to the proportion of the total amount of securities sold under such registration statement sold by the participating Purchaser. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, 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.
