Page 4 of 14

 
          (a) To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company awritten request for indemnification or advancement of Expenses, including therein or therewith suchdocumentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessaryto determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification as soon as isreasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of written notice thereof. Such writtenrequest to the Company shall include a description of the nature of the Proceeding and the factsunderlying such Proceeding, to the extent known. The omission by Indemnitee to notify the Companyhereunder will not relieve the Company from any liability that it may have to Indemnitee hereunderor otherwise than under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Company shall notconstitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights under this Agreement. The Secretary of the Company(or other executive officer if the secretary is otherwise unavailable) shall, promptly upon receiptof such a request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requestedindemnification.          (b) If a claim under this Agreement, under any statute, or under any provision of theCertificate or Bylaws providing for indemnification is not paid in full by the Company withinthirty (30) days after a written request for payment thereof has first been received by theCompany, Indemnitee shall, at any time thereafter, be entitled to an adjudication in an appropriatecourt of the State of Delaware, or in any other court of competent jurisdiction, of Indemnitee’sentitlement to such indemnification. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his option, may seek an awardin arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rulesof the American Arbitration Association. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seekany such adjudication. In any such action by Indemnitee to recover the unpaid amount of the claim,Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid for the Expenses of bringing such action. It shall bea defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for Expenses incurredin connection with any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition) that Indemnitee has not metthe standards of conduct which make it permissible under applicable law for the Company toindemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on theCompany, and Indemnitee shall be entitled to receive interim payments of Expenses pursuant toSection 5 unless and until such defense may be finally adjudicated by court order or judgment fromwhich no further right of appeal exists. It is the parties’ intention that if the Company contestsIndemnitee’s right to indemnification, the question of Indemnitee’s right to indemnification shallbe for the court to decide, and neither the failure of the Company (including the Board, anycommittee or subgroup of the Board, independent legal counsel or the Company’s stockholders) tohave made a determination that indemnification of Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances becauseIndemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct required by applicable law, nor an actualdetermination by the Company (including the Board, any committee or subgroup of the Board,independent legal counsel or the Company’s stockholders) that Indemnitee has not met suchapplicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Indemnitee has or has not met theapplicable standard of conduct.**INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT — WILLIAM BREHMER**

          (c) Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based onthe records or books of account of the Enterprise (as defined below), including financialstatements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Enterprise in thecourse of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information orrecords given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or byan appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise. In addition, theknowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, agent or employee of theEnterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right toindemnification under this Agreement. Whether or not the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(c)are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted in goodfaith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interestsof the Company. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof.          (d) The Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgmentmay be successful if it permits a party to avoid expense, delay, distraction, disruption anduncertainty. In the event that any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in anymanner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlementof such Proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumedthat Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such Proceeding. Anyone seekingto overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof.          (e) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue, or matter therein, by judgment,order, settlement, or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not(except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right ofIndemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith andin a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or opposed to the best interests of theCompany or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause tobelieve that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.     **Section 6.****Remedies of Indemnitee**.          (a) In the event that Indemnitee seeks a judicial adjudication of Indemnitee’s rights under,or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, or to recover under any D&O Insurance policiesmaintained by the Company, the Company shall pay on Indemnitee’s behalf, in advance, any and allexpenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses in Section 13(d) of this Agreement)actually incurred by Indemnitee in such judicial adjudication, regardless of whether Indemniteeultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of expenses, orinsurance recovery.          (b) The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commencedpursuant to this Section 6 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid,binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such**INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT — WILLIAM BREHMER**
