Exhibit 10.1
[ Form of ]
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
     This Agreement, made and entered into as of this ___ day of
                    , 2007 (“Agreement”), by and between Intellect
Neurosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and
                     (the “Indemnitee”).
     WHEREAS, highly competent persons are reluctant to serve corporations as
directors, officers or in other capacities unless they are provided with
adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against
inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service
to and activities on behalf of the corporation;
     WHEREAS, the current impracticability of obtaining adequate insurance and
the uncertainties relating to indemnification have increased the difficulty of
attracting and retaining such persons;
     WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company
contractually to obligate itself to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the
Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified; and
     WHEREAS, Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on
additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that
Indemnitee be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted.
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants
contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as
follows:

in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint,

Indemnification
     4.01 In General. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in
connection with any Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify, and advance
Expenses, to Indemnitee as provided in this Agreement.
     4.02 Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company.
Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this
Section 4.02 if, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, Indemnitee is, or
is threatened to be made, a party to or is otherwise involved in any Proceeding,
other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be
indemnified against Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in
settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s
behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein,

Benefit from the transaction or occurrence forming the basis of such Proceeding.
     4.03 Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company.
     (a) Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided
in this Section 4.03 if, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, Indemnitee
is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or is otherwise involved in any
Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in
its favor. Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses, judgments,
penalties, and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by
Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with such Proceeding if
Indemnitee acted in Good Faith and such Indemnitee has not been adjudged during
the course of such Proceeding to have derived an Improper Personal Benefit from
the transaction or occurrence forming the basis of such Proceeding.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such indemnification shall be made in respect
of any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the Company if applicable law prohibits such
indemnification; provided, however, that, if applicable law so permits,
indemnification shall nevertheless be made by the Company in such event if and
only to the extent that the Court which is considering the matter shall so
determine.
     4.04 Indemnification of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that
Indemnitee is, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, a party to or is
otherwise involved in and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any
Proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified, to the maximum extent permitted by
law, against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines, and amounts paid in
settlement,

-3-

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

 

actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in
connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding
but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than
all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify
Indemnitee, to the maximum extent permitted by law, against all Expenses,
judgments, penalties, fines, and amounts paid in settlement, actually and
reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with
each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. For purposes of this
Section 4.04 and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or
matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be
deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.
     4.05 Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of
Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, a witness in any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall be
indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee
or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection therewith.
ARTICLE V
Advancement of Expenses
     Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in Article VI and to the
fullest extent provided by applicable law, the Company (acting through the Chief
Executive Officer) shall advance all reasonable Expenses which, by reason of
Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, were incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in
connection with any Proceeding, within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the
Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or
advances, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such
statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by
Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by an undertaking by
or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses if it shall ultimately be
determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such
Expenses. Any advance and undertakings to repay pursuant to this Article V shall
be unsecured and interest free. Advancement of Expenses pursuant to this
Article V shall not require approval of the Board of Directors or the
stockholders of the Company, or of any other person or body. The Secretary of
the Company shall promptly advise the Board in writing of the request for
advancement of Expenses, of the amount and other details of the advance and of
the undertaking to make repayment pursuant to this Article V.
ARTICLE VI
Procedures for Determination of Entitlement
to Indemnification and Defense of Claims
     6.01 Initial Request. To obtain indemnification under this Agreement (other
than advancement of Expenses pursuant to Article V), Indemnitee shall submit to
the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation
and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonable
necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification. The Secretary of the Company shall promptly advise the Board in
writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.
     6.02 Method of Determination. A determination (if required by applicable
law in the specific case) with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to
indemnification shall be made (a) by the Board by a majority vote of a quorum
consisting of Disinterested Directors, or (b) in the event that a quorum of the
Board consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if
obtainable, such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by Independent
Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to
Indemnitee, or (c) by the holders of a majority of the votes of the outstanding
stock at the time entitled to vote on matters other than the election or removal
of directors, voting as a single class, including the stock of the Indemnitee.

-4-

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

 

     6.03 Selection, Payment, Discharge, of Independent Counsel. In the event
the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent
Counsel pursuant to Section 6.02 of this Agreement, the Independent Counsel
shall be selected, paid, and discharged in the following manner:
(a) The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board, and the Company
shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising Indemnitee of the identity of
the Independent Counsel so selected.
(b) Following the initial selection described in clause (a) of this
Section 6.03, Indemnitee may, within seven (7) days after such written notice of
selection has been given, deliver to the Company a written objection to such
selection. Such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the
Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent
Counsel” as defined in Section 1.09 of this Agreement, and the objection shall
set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a
proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent
Counsel. If such written objection is made, the Independent Counsel so selected
may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until a court has determined
that such objection is without merit.
(c) Either the Company or Indemnitee may petition a Court if the parties have
been unable to agree on the selection of Independent Counsel within twenty
(20) days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for
indemnification pursuant to Section 6.01 of this Agreement. Such petition may
request a determination whether an objection to the party’s selection is without
merit and/or seek the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by
the Court or by such other person as the Court shall designate. A person so
appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 6.03 of this Agreement.
(d) The Company shall pay any and all reasonable fees of Independent Counsel and
expenses incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with acting pursuant
to this Agreement, and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses
incident to the procedures of this Section 6.03, regardless of the manner in
which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed.
(e) Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant
to Section 8.02 of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and
relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the
applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).
     6.04 Cooperation. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or
entity making the determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to
indemnification under this Agreement, including providing to such person,
persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or
information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and
which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such
determination. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and
disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons
or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective
of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the
Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

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

 

     6.05 Defense of Claim. With respect to any Proceeding to which Indemnitee
shall have requested indemnification in accordance with Section 6.01:
(a) The Company will be entitled to participate in the defense at its own
expense.
(b) Except as otherwise provided below, the Company jointly with any other
indemnifying party will be entitled to assume the defense with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to the
Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a suit, the Company will not
be liable to the Indemnitee under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of the
Proceeding other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided
below. The Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his own counsel in such
Proceeding but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from
the Company of its assumption of the defense shall be at the expense of the
Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been
authorized by the Company, (ii) the Indemnitee shall have concluded reasonably
that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and the Indemnitee
in the conduct of the defense of such action and such conclusion is confirmed in
writing by the Company’s outside counsel regularly employed by it in connection
with corporate matters or (iii) the Company shall not in fact have employed
counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding, in each of which cases the
fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Company. The Company
shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or in
the right of the Company or as to which the Indemnitee shall have made the
conclusion provided for in (ii) above and such conclusion shall have been so
confirmed by the Company’s said outside counsel.
(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company
shall not be liable to indemnify the Indemnitee under this Article of any
amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding or claim effected without its
written consent. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding or claim in any
manner which would impose any penalty, limitation or disqualification of the
Indemnitee for any purpose without the Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the
Company nor the Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold their consent to any
proposed settlement.
     6.06 Payment. If it is determined that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification not covered by defense of the claim afforded under Section 6.05
above, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such
determination.
ARTICLE VII
Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings
     7.01 Burden of Proof. In making a determination with respect to entitlement
to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such
determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in
accordance with Section 6.01 of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the
burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by
any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption.

-6-

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

 

     7.02 Effect of Other Proceedings. The termination of any Proceeding or of
any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or
conviction, or upon a plea of guilty or of nolo contendere or its equivalent,
shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself
adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a
presumption that Indemnitee did not act in Good Faith.
     7.03 Reliance as Safe Harbor. For purposes of any determination of Good
Faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in Good Faith if Indemnitee’s
action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including
financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the Officers
of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal
counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to
the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser
or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise. The provisions
of this Section 7.03 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way
the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.
     7.04 Actions of Others. The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of
any director, Officer, employee, agent, trustee or fiduciary of the Enterprise
shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to
indemnification under this Agreement.
ARTICLE VIII
Remedies of Indemnitee
     8.01 Application. This Article VIII shall apply in the event of a Dispute.
For purposes of this Article, “Dispute”, shall mean any of the following events:
(a) a determination is made pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement that
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement;
(b) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Article V of this
Agreement;
(c) the determination of entitlement to be made pursuant to Section 6.02 of this
Agreement has not been made within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company
of the request for indemnification;
(d) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 4.05 of this
Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request
therefor; or
(e) notice of election by the Company to assume defense of a claim as provided
for in Section 6.05 or payment of indemnification, as the case may be, is not
given or made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed to
have been made pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement.
     8.02 Adjudication. In the event of a Dispute, Indemnitee shall be entitled
to an adjudication in an appropriate Court of Indemnitee’s entitlement to such
indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at
Indemnitee’s option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a
single arbitrator pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in
arbitration within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date on which
Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this
Section 8.02. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such
adjudication or award in arbitration.

-7-

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

 

     8.03 De Novo Review. In the event that a determination shall have been made
pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to
this Article VIII shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or
arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of
that adverse determination. In any such proceeding or arbitration, the Company
shall have the burden of proving that Indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be.
     8.04 Company Bound. If a determination shall have been made or deemed to
have been made pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement that Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in
any judicial proceeding or arbitration absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee
of a material fact, or any omission of a material fact necessary to make
Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request
for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under
applicable law.
     8.05 Procedures Valid. The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any
judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Article VIII that
the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and
enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator
that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.
     8.06 Expenses of Adjudication. In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to
this Article VIII, seeks a judicial adjudication of or an award in arbitration
to enforce Indemnitee’s rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this
Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover from the Company, and shall
be indemnified by the Company against, any and all expenses (of the types
described in the definition of Expenses in Section 1.06 of this Agreement)
actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in such adjudication or
arbitration, but only if Indemnitee prevails therein. If it shall be determined
in such adjudication or arbitration that Indemnitee is entitled to receive part
but not all of the indemnification or advancement of Expenses sought, the
expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such adjudication or
arbitration shall be appropriately prorated.
ARTICLE IX
Non-Exclusivity, Insurance, Subrogation
     9.01 Non-Exclusivity. The rights of indemnification and to receive
advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled
under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the By-Laws, any
agreement, a vote of shareholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No
amendment, alteration, rescission or replacement of this Agreement or any
provision hereof shall be effective as to Indemnitee with respect to any action
taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in Indemnitee’s Corporate Status prior to
such amendment, alteration, rescission or replacement.
     9.02 Insurance. The Company may maintain an insurance policy or policies
against liability arising out of this Agreement or otherwise.
     9.03 Subrogation. In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the
Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights
of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all
action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as
are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.

-8-

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

 

     9.04 No Duplicative Payment. The Company shall not be liable under this
Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if
and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment
under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.
ARTICLE X
General Provisions
     10.01 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
Company and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of
Indemnitee and Indemnitee’s legal representatives, heirs, executors and
administrators.
     10.02 Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall
be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever:
(a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of
this Agreement (including without limitation, each portion of any Section of
this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and
(b) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including,
without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any

the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.
     10.03 No Adequate Remedy. The parties declare that it is impossible to
measure in money the damages which will accrue to either party by reason of a
failure to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, if
either party shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce the provisions
hereof, such party against whom such action or proceeding is brought hereby
waives the claim or defense that the other party has an adequate remedy at law,
and such party shall not urge in any such action or proceeding the claim or
defense that the other party has an adequate remedy at law.
     10.04 Headings. The headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are
inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this
Agreement or to affect the construction thereof.
     10.05 Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or amendment of
this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the
parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be
deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or
not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
