10.5.        No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced

10.6.        Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction, etc.  This Agreement shall
be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, the U.S., without regard to the principles of conflicts of
law thereof.  Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the

improper.  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of
process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or
proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or

26

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

 

10.7.        Survival.  The representations, warranties, agreements and
covenants contained herein shall survive until the earlier of (i) twenty-four
(24) months from the Closing Date, or (ii) the consummation of the Uplisting
contemplated by this Agreement.

10.8.        Indemnification.

(a)           During the survival period specified in Section 10.7, the Company
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and its Affiliates and their
respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without
limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other expenses
incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action,
claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof)
(collectively, “Losses”) to which such Person may become subject as a result of
any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be
performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents, and will
reimburse any such Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such
Person.

(b)           Promptly after receipt by any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) of
notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a
claim or the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation in respect
of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section 10.8, such Indemnified
Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company shall assume
the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such Indemnified Person, and shall assume the payment of all fees and
expenses; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Person so to
notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder
except to the extent that the Company is materially prejudiced by such failure
to notify.  In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right
to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at
the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company and the
Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel;
or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnified Person
representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between them.  The Company shall not be
liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with
such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Company
shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Person from and against any
loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or
judgment.  Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Company shall not effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any
Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out
of such proceeding.

 
27

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

 

10.9.        Execution.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the
same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by
each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both
parties need not sign the same counterpart.  In the event that any signature is
delivered by facsimile transmission or other electronic transmission, such
signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or
on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if
such facsimile or other electronic signature page were an original thereof.

10.10.      Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the
remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid
and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so
agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.

10.11.      Replacement of Securities.  If any certificate or instrument
evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall
issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon
cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate
or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable
indemnity, if requested.  The applicants for a new certificate or instrument
under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs
associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares.

10.12.      Remedies.  In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the
Investor and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the
Transaction Documents.  The parties agree that monetary damages may not be
adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of
obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in
any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate.

10.13.      Payment Set Aside.  To the extent that the Company makes a payment
or payments to the Investor pursuant to any Transaction Document or the Investor
enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the
proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered
from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored
to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law
(including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common
law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration
the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been
made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
