7.2 Indemnification.
 
(a) The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the
Investors, their respective affiliates and respective officers, directors,
partners, members, shareholders, employees and agents (collectively, the
“Investors’ Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
judgments, penalties, liabilities and deficiencies (collectively, “Indemnitee
Losses”), and agrees to reimburse the Investors’ Indemnitees for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal
counsel), in each case promptly as incurred and paid by the Investors’
Indemnitees and to the extent arising out of or in connection with: (i) any
material misrepresentation or material breach of any of the Company’s
representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or the annexes,
schedules or exhibits hereto; or (ii) any failure by the Company to perform any
of the Company’s covenants, agreements, undertakings or obligations set forth in
this Agreement or the annexes, schedules or exhibits hereto. The maximum
aggregate liability of the Company for claims pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall
be the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Company shall not have any liability for indemnification pursuant to
this Section 7.3 until the aggregate Indemnitee Losses are in excess of 10% of
Purchase Price, at which point the Company shall only be liable for the amount
of Indemnitee Losses in excess of such amount.

- 14 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b) Promptly after receipt by any indemnitee seeking indemnification pursuant to
this Section 7.3 of written notice of any investigation, claim, proceeding or
other action in respect of which indemnification is being sought (each, a
“Claim”), the indemnitee seeking indemnification therefor (an “Indemnified
Party”) promptly shall notify the party against whom indemnification pursuant to
this Section 7.3 is being sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the commencement
thereof; but the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve
it from any liability that it otherwise may have to the Indemnified Party,
except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by reason of such
failure. In connection with any Claim as to which both the Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party are parties, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled
to assume the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of
any Claim by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right
to employ separate legal counsel and to participate in the defense of such
Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket
costs and expenses of such separate legal counsel to the Indemnified Party if
(and only if): (x) the Indemnifying Party shall have agreed to pay such fees,
out-of-pocket costs and expenses, (y) the Indemnified Party reasonably shall
have concluded that representation of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying
Party by the same legal counsel would not be appropriate due to actual or, as
reasonably determined by legal counsel to the Indemnified Party, potentially
differing interests between such parties in the conduct of the defense of such
Claim, or if there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that
are in addition to or disparate from those available to the Indemnifying Party,
or (z) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to employ legal counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of
time after notice of the commencement of such Claim. If the Indemnified Party
employs separate legal counsel in circumstances other than as described in
clauses (x), (y) or (z) above, the fees, costs and expenses of such legal
counsel shall be borne exclusively by the Indemnified Party. Except as provided
above, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any Claim in the
same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of
legal counsel for the Indemnified Party (together with appropriate local
counsel). The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of
the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), settle
or compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment that does not
include an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities
with respect to such Claim or judgment.
 
(c) In the event an Indemnified Party shall have a claim for indemnification
hereunder that does not involve a claim or demand being asserted by a third
party, the Indemnified Party promptly shall deliver notice of such claim to the
Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party disputes the claim, such dispute
shall be resolved by mutual agreement of the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party or, failing any such agreement, by order or judgment of a
court of appropriate jurisdiction.

7.4 Waiver. No delay on the part of any party hereto with respect to the
exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any of
the Ancillary Agreements shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
exercise or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy
preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power,
privilege or remedy. No modification or waiver by any party hereto of any
provision of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, or consent to
any departure by any other party therefrom, shall be effective other than in the
specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

the Ancillary Agreements are cumulative and not exclusive of any other right,
power, privilege or remedy the parties hereto would otherwise have.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements constitute the
entire agreement and understanding among the Investors and the Company, and

ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES
OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.

shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and
the same instrument. Facsimile signatures shall bind the parties hereto and to
the Ancillary Agreements to the same extent as original signatures.
 
7.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions of this Agreement and without affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
 
7.10 Cross References. References in this Agreement to any section are, unless
otherwise specified, to such section of this Agreement.

Agreement.
 
7.13 Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, no modification,
amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless
such modification, amendment or waiver is approved in writing by the Company and
the Majority Investors; provided, however, that to the extent that any such
modification, amendment or waiver does not apply equally to each Investor,
consent to any such modification, amendment or waiver shall be required from
each such Investor that is treated less favorably than those approving the same
to be binding upon such Investor. The failure of any party to enforce any of the
provisions of this Agreement will in no way be construed as a waiver of such
provisions and will not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce
each and every provision of this Agreement.
 
7.14 Liability for Brokers or Finders. The Company will pay and/or hold the
Investors harmless against the payment of any and all Liability for brokerage or
finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar charges in connection with

7.15 Injunctive Relief. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by any
party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements
hereunder, any other party shall be entitled to an injunction or similar
equitable relief restraining such party from committing or continuing any such
breach or threatened breach or granting specific performance of any action
required to be performed by such party under any such provision.

- 17 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7.16 Binding Effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties (including
transferees of the Shares). Neither party shall be permitted to assign any of
its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in
this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other
than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any
rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this
Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Any attempted
assignment or delegation by a party hereto not in accordance with this Section

disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party may be
entitled.
 
7.18 Rights of Investors. Each holder of the Shares shall have the absolute
right to exercise or refrain from exercising any right or rights that such
holder may have by reason of this Agreement or any thereof, including without
limitation the right to consent to the waiver of any obligation of the Company
under this Agreement and to enter into an agreement with the Company for the
purpose of modifying this Agreement or any agreement effecting any such
modification, and such holder shall not incur any liability to any other holder
or holders of the Shares with respect to exercising or refraining from
exercising any such right or rights.

action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in
connection with the Shares.
 
7.20 Construction. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement is the product
of negotiations between sophisticated parties and individuals, all of whom were
represented by counsel, and each of whom had an opportunity to participate in,
and did participate in, the drafting of each provision hereof. Accordingly,
ambiguities in this Agreement, if any, shall not be construed strictly or in
favor of or against any party hereto but rather shall be given a fair and
reasonable construction without regard to the rule of contra proferentem. As
used in this Agreement, the word “including” shall mean “including without
limitation” and the masculine gender shall include the feminine and the neuter
gender.
