EX-10.1






Form of

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT




This Indemnification Agreement, dated as of , 200, is made by and between COLLEGIATE PACIFIC
INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and      , a director, officer or key
employee of the Company or one of the Company’s Subsidiaries (the “Indemnitee”).



The following recitals are true and constitute the basis for this Indemnification Agreement:



A. The Company is aware that competent and experienced persons are increasingly
reluctant to serve as representatives of corporations unless they are protected by
comprehensive liability insurance and/or indemnification, due to increased exposure
to litigation costs and risks resulting from their service to such corporations,
and due to the fact that the exposure frequently bears no reasonable relationship
to the compensation of such representatives;



B. Plaintiffs often seek damages in such large amounts and the costs of
litigation may be so substantial (whether or not the case is meritorious), that the
defense and/or settlement of such litigation is often beyond the personal resources
of representatives;



C. The Company believes that it is unfair for its representatives and the
representatives of its Subsidiaries (as defined below) to assume the risk of large
judgments and Expenses (as defined below) that may be incurred in cases in which
the representative received no personal profit and in cases where the director or
officer was not culpable;



D. The Company recognizes that the issues in controversy in litigation against a
representative of a corporation such as the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company
are often related to the knowledge, motives and intent of such representatives,
that he or she is usually the only witness with knowledge of the essential facts
and exculpating circumstances regarding such matters and that the long period of
time which usually elapses before the trial or other disposition of such litigation
often extends beyond the time that the representative can reasonably recall such
matters; and may extend beyond the normal time for retirement for such director or
officer with the result that he or she, after retirement or in the event of his or
her death, his or her spouse, heirs, executors or administrators, may be faced with
limited ability and undue hardship in maintaining an adequate defense, which may
discourage such a representatives from serving in that position;



E. Based upon their experience as business managers, the Board of Directors of the
Company (the “Board”) has concluded that, to retain and attract talented and
experienced individuals to serve as representatives of the Company and its
Subsidiaries and to encourage such individuals to take the business risks necessary
for the success of the Company and its Subsidiaries, it is necessary for the
Company to contractually indemnify its representatives and the representatives of
its Subsidiaries, and to assume for itself maximum liability for Expenses and
damages in connection with claims against such representatives in connection with
their service to the Company and its Subsidiaries, and has further concluded that
the failure to provide such contractual indemnification could result in great harm
to the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company’s stockholders;



F. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, under which the Company
is organized (“Section 145”), empowers the Company to indemnify by agreement its
officers, directors, employees and agents, and persons who serve, at the request of
the Company, as directors, officers, employees or agents of other corporations or
enterprises, and expressly provides that the indemnification provided by Section
145 is not exclusive;



G. The Company desires and has requested the Indemnitee to serve or continue to
serve as a representatives of the Company and/or the Subsidiaries of the Company
free from undue concern for claims for damages arising out of or related to such
services to the Company and/or the Subsidiaries of the Company; and



H. The Indemnitee is willing to serve, or to continue to serve, the Company and/or
the Subsidiaries of the Company; provided that he or she is furnished the indemnity
provided for herein.



NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:



1. Definitions.

which the Indemnitee is or was or will be serving as a director, officer, advisory director,
trustee, manager, member, partner, employee, agent, attorney, consultant, member of the entity’s
governing body (whether constituted as a board of directors, board of managers, general partner or
otherwise), fiduciary, or in any other similar capacity at the direct or indirect request of the
Company, and including, but not limited to, any employee benefit plan of the Company or a
Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company.



(b) Agent. For the purposes of this Indemnification Agreement, “Agent” of the Company
means any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, attorney or other agent of the
Company or a Subsidiary of the Company; or is or was serving at the request of, for the convenience
of, or to represent the interest of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture,

corporation which was a predecessor corporation of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise at the request of, for the
convenience of, or to represent the interests of such predecessor corporation.



(c) Expenses. For purposes of this Indemnification Agreement, “Expenses” means all
direct and indirect costs of any type or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, all
attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, and other out-of-pocket costs) actually and reasonably
incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with either the investigation, defense or appeal of, or
being a witness in, a Proceeding (as defined below) or establishing or enforcing a right to
indemnification under this Indemnification Agreement, Section 145 or otherwise; provided, however,
that Expenses shall not include any judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties or amounts
paid in settlement of a Proceeding.



(d) Other Liabilities. For purposes of this Indemnification Agreement, “Other
Liabilities” means any and all liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to,
judgments, fines, ERISA (or other benefit plan related) excise taxes or penalties, and amounts paid
in settlement and all interest, taxes, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection
with or in respect of any Expenses or any such judgments, fines, ERISA (or other benefit plan
related) excise taxes or penalties, or amounts paid in settlement).



(e) Proceeding. For the purposes of this Indemnification Agreement, “Proceeding” means
any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative, investigative or any other type whatsoever, including any arbitration or other

corporation of which more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities is owned directly or

2. Agreement to Serve. The Indemnitee agrees to serve and/or continue to serve as an
Agent of the Company, at the will of the Company (or under separate agreement, if such agreement
exists), in the capacity the Indemnitee currently serves as an Agent of the Company, so long as he
or she is duly appointed or elected, and is and remains qualified to serve in such capacity, in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bylaws of the Company or any Subsidiary of the
Company and until the resignation, removal, termination, permanent disability or death of the
Indemnitee; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Indemnification Agreement is intended
to create any right to continued employment or other form of service by the Indemnitee.



3. Mandatory Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee to the
fullest extent not prohibited by the provisions of the Company’s Bylaws and the Delaware General
Corporation Law (“DGCL”), as the same may be amended from time to time (but only to the extent that
such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Bylaws or the
DGCL permitted prior to the adoption of such amendment) as follows, subject to the limitations set
forth in Section 10 below:



(a) Third Party Actions. If the Indemnitee is a person who was or is a party to, or
witness in, or is threatened to be made a party to, or witness in, any Proceeding (other than an
action by or in the right of the Company, which actions are addressed in Section 3(b) below) by
reason of the fact that he or she is or was an Agent of the Company, or by reason of anything done
or not done by the Indemnitee in any such capacity, against any and all Expenses and Other
Liabilities actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the
investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such Proceeding if he or she acted in good faith
and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
his or her conduct was unlawful; and



(b) Derivative Actions. If the Indemnitee is a person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a
judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was an Agent of the Company, or by
reason of anything done or not done by the Indemnitee in any such capacity, against any amounts
paid in settlement of any such Proceeding, to the maximum extent permitted by law, and all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense,
settlement, or appeal of such Proceeding if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he
or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; except
that no indemnification under this subsection shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or
matter as to which such person shall have been finally adjudged to be liable to the Company, unless
and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (“Court of Chancery”) or
the court in which such Proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the
adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly
and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such amounts which the Court of Chancery or such other
court shall deem proper.



4. Determination of “Good Faith”. For purposes of any determination of “good faith”
hereunder, the Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if in taking such action the
Indemnitee relied on the records or books of account of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate of
the Company, including financial statements, or on information, opinions, reports or statements
provided to the Indemnitee by the officers or other employees of the Company or a Subsidiary or
Affiliate of the Company in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the
Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, or on information or records given or reports
made to the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company by an independent certified public
accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected by the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate
of the Company, or by any other person (including legal counsel, accountants and financial
advisors) as to matters the Indemnitee reasonably believes are within such other person’s
professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of
the Company. In connection with any determination as to whether the Indemnitee is entitled to be
indemnified hereunder, the Reviewing Party (as defined below) or court shall presume that the
Indemnitee has satisfied the applicable standard of conduct and shall be entitled to
indemnification, and the burden of proof shall be on the Company to establish that the Indemnitee
is not so entitled. The provisions of this Section 4 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 Indemnification Agreement. In addition, the
knowledge and/or actions, or failures to act, of any other person serving the Company or a
Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company as an indemnifiable person shall not be imputed to the
Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification hereunder.



5. Exception for Amounts Covered by Insurance and Other Sources. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee for Expenses or Other
Liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to judgments, fines, ERISA excise
taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) to the extent such have been paid directly to
the Indemnitee by any directors and officers insurance (“D&O Insurance”) maintained by the Company
or other indemnity arrangements with third parties.



6. Partial Indemnification and Contribution.



(a) Partial Indemnification. If the Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of
this Indemnification Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of any
Expenses or Other Liabilities, but not entitled, however, to indemnification for all of the total
amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee for such total amount
except as to the portion thereof to which the Indemnitee is not entitled.



(b) Contribution. If the Indemnitee is not entitled to the indemnification provided in
Section 3 above for any reason other than the statutory limitations set forth in the DGCL, then in
respect of any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable
with the Indemnitee (or would be adjoined in such Proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the
amount of Expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by the Indemnitee in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the
Indemnitee on the other hand from the transaction from which such Proceeding arose and (ii) the
relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Indemnitee on the other hand in connection
with the events which resulted in such Expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault on the Company on the one hand and
of the Indemnitee on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the
parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
the circumstances resulting in such Expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts. The Company
agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were
determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take into
account the foregoing equitable considerations.



7. Mandatory Advancement of Expenses.



(a) Advancement. Subject to Section 5 above or Section 10 below, the Company shall
advance prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding, all Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee
in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of any Proceeding to which the
Indemnitee is a party or is threatened to be made a party by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee
is or was an Agent of the Company or by reason of anything done or not done by him or her in any
such capacity. The Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay such amounts advanced only if, and to the
extent that, it shall ultimately be determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be
indemnified by the Company under the provisions of this Indemnification Agreement, the Company’s
Bylaws or the DGCL. The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to the
Indemnitee or directly to a third party designated in writing by the Indemnitee within twenty (20)
days following delivery of a written request therefor by the Indemnitee to the Company.



(b) Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7, the Company
shall not be obligated to advance any Expenses to the Indemnitee if: (i) those members of the Board
consisting of directors who were not parties to the Proceeding for which a claim is made under this
Indemnification Agreement, even though less than a quorum or (ii) independent legal counsel,
selected by the Indemnitee, and approved by the Board, which approval may not be unreasonably
withheld, by written legal opinion, or (iii) a panel of arbitrators (one of whom is selected by the
Company, another of whom is selected by the Indemnitee and the last of whom is selected by the
first two arbitrators so selected), determines in good faith, within thirty (30) days of the
Indemnitee’s request to be advanced Expenses, that the facts known to them at the time such
determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that the Indemnitee acted in bad faith.
If such a determination is made, the Indemnitee may have such decision reviewed in the manner set
forth in Section 9(d) hereof, with all references therein to “indemnification” being deemed to
refer to “advancement of Expenses,” and the burden of proof shall be on the Company to demonstrate
clearly and convincingly that, based on the facts known at the time, the Indemnitee acted in bad
faith.



8. Notice and Other Indemnification Procedures.



(a) Notification. Promptly after receipt by the Indemnitee of notice of the
commencement of or the threat of commencement of any Proceeding, the Indemnitee shall, if the
Indemnitee believes that indemnification with respect thereto may be sought from the Company under
this Indemnification Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement or threat of commencement
thereof. The failure to promptly notify the Company of the commencement of, or the threat of
commencement of, any Proceeding, or the Indemnitee’s request for indemnification will not relieve
the Company from any obligation that it may have to the Indemnitee hereunder, except to the extent
that the Company is materially prejudiced in its defense of such Proceeding as a result of such
failure.



(b) Insurance and Other Matters. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of the
commencement of a Proceeding pursuant to Section 8(a) above, the Company has D&O Insurance in
effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such Proceeding to the issuers
in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall
thereafter take all reasonable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee,
all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such D&O
Insurance policies.



(c) Assumption of Defense. In the event the Company shall be obligated to
advance the Expenses for any Proceeding against the Indemnitee, the Company, if deemed appropriate
by the Company, shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Proceeding as provided herein.
Following delivery of written notice to the Indemnitee of the Company’s election to assume the
defense of such Proceeding, the approval by the Indemnitee (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld) of counsel designated by the Company and the retention of such counsel by
the Company, the Company will not be liable to the Indemnitee under this Indemnification Agreement
for any fees and expenses of counsel subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to the
same Proceeding. If (A) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been previously authorized
by the Company, (B) the Indemnitee shall have notified the Board in writing that the Indemnitee has
reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and the
Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense, or (C) the Company fails to employ counsel to assume
the defense of such Proceeding, the fees and expenses of the Indemnitee’s counsel shall be subject
to indemnification and/or advancement pursuant to the terms of this Indemnification Agreement.
Nothing herein shall prevent the Indemnitee from employing counsel for any such Proceeding at the
Indemnitee’s expense.



9. Determination of Right to Indemnification.



(a) Success on the Merits. To the extent the Indemnitee has been successful on the
merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding referred to in Section 3(a) or 3(b) of this
Indemnification Agreement or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter described therein, the
Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee against Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or
her in connection therewith.



(b) Right to Indemnification in Other Situations. In the event that Section 9(a) is
inapplicable, the Company shall also indemnify the Indemnitee if he or she has not failed to meet
the applicable standard of conduct for indemnification.



(c) Forum. The Indemnitee shall be entitled to select the forum in which determination
of whether or not the Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct will be made from among
the following, except that the Indemnitee can select the forum consisting of the stockholders of
the Company only with the approval of the Company:



(1) Those members of the Board consisting of directors who are not parties to the Proceeding
for which indemnification is being sought, even though less than a quorum;



(2) The stockholders of the Company;



(3) Independent legal counsel selected by the Indemnitee, and approved by the Board, which
approval may not be unreasonably withheld, which counsel shall make such determination in a written
opinion; or



(4) A panel of three arbitrators, one of whom is selected by the Company, another of whom is
selected by the Indemnitee and the last of whom is selected by the first two arbitrators so
selected.



The selected forum shall be referred to herein as the “Reviewing Party”.



As soon as practicable, and in no event later than 30 days after written notice of the
Indemnitee’s choice of forum pursuant to Section 9(c) above, the Company and the Indemnitee shall
each submit to the Reviewing Party such information as they believe is appropriate for the
Reviewing Party to consider.



(d) Delaware Court of Chancery. Notwithstanding a final determination by any Reviewing
Party that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification with respect to a specific Proceeding,
the Indemnitee shall have the right to apply to the Court of Chancery of Delaware, the court in
which that Proceeding is or was pending or any other court of competent jurisdiction, for the
purpose of enforcing the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Indemnification
Agreement.



(e) Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indemnification Agreement to
the contrary, the Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee against all Expenses incurred by the
Indemnitee in connection with any hearing or Proceeding under this Section 9 involving the
Indemnitee and against all Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any other
Proceeding between the Company and the Indemnitee involving the interpretation or enforcement of
the rights of the Indemnitee under this Indemnification Agreement unless a court of competent
jurisdiction finds that each of the material claims and/or defenses of the Indemnitee in any such
Proceeding was frivolous or not made in good faith.



10. Exceptions. Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of this Indemnification Agreement under the
following circumstances:



(a) Claims Initiated by Indemnitee. To indemnify or advance Expenses to the Indemnitee
with respect to Proceedings or claims initiated or brought voluntarily by the Indemnitee and not by
way of defense, except with respect to (1) Proceedings brought to establish or enforce a right to
indemnification under this Indemnification Agreement, any other statute or law, as permitted under
Section 145, or otherwise, and (2) Proceedings brought to discharge the Indemnitee’s fiduciary
responsibilities, whether under ERISA or otherwise, but such indemnification or advancement of
Expenses may be provided by the Company in specific cases if the Board finds it to be appropriate;
or



(b) Unauthorized Settlements. To indemnify the Indemnitee under this Indemnification
Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of a Proceeding unless the Company consents to such
settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or



(c) Undeserved Personal Advantage. To indemnify the Indemnitee under this
Indemnification Agreement for Other Liabilities from a Proceeding in which a court enters a
judgment concluding that the Indemnitee gained in fact a material personal profit or advantage to
which the Indemnitee is not entitled; or



(d) Advance Expenses. To advance Expenses to the Indemnitee under this Indemnification
Agreement for any Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to any Proceeding brought by the
Company against the Indemnitee for breach of the duty of loyalty, an act or omission not in good
faith or that involves intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law, or a transaction from
which the Indemnitee gained an improper personal benefit; or



(e) Actions. To indemnify the Indemnitee on account of any suit in which judgment is
rendered against the Indemnitee for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by the
Indemnitee of securities of the Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and amendments thereto or similar provisions of any federal, state
or local statutory law; or



(f) Unlawful Indemnification. To indemnify the Indemnitee for Other Liabilities if a
final decision by a court having jurisdiction in the matter shall determine that such
indemnification is prohibited by law. Both the Company and the Indemnitee acknowledge that in
certain instances, federal law or applicable public policy may prohibit the Company from
Indemnifying under this Indemnification Agreement or otherwise a person serving the Company or a
Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company as an Agent.



11. Non-exclusivity. The provisions for indemnification and advancement of Expenses
set forth in this Indemnification Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights which
the Indemnitee may have under any provision of law, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or
Bylaws, the vote of the Company’s stockholders or disinterested directors, other agreements, or
otherwise, both as to acts or omissions in his or her official capacity and to acts or omissions in
another capacity while occupying his or her position as an Agent of the Company, and the Indemnitee
‘ s rights hereunder shall continue after the Indemnitee has ceased acting as an Agent of the
Company and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of the
Indemnitee. If the Company and the Indemnitee have previously entered into an Indemnity Agreement
providing for indemnification of the Indemnitee by the Company, the parties’ entry into this
Indemnification Agreement shall be deemed to amend and restate such Indemnity Agreement to read in
its entirety as, and to be superseded by, this Indemnification Agreement.



12. Interpretation of Agreement. It is understood that the parties hereto intend this
Indemnification Agreement to be interpreted and enforced so as to provide indemnification and
advancement of Expenses to the Indemnitee to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by law,
except as expressly prohibited herein.



13. Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Indemnification Agreement
shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, (i) the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Indemnification Agreement
(including, without limitation, all portions of any paragraphs of this Indemnification Agreement
containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that are not themselves
invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and (ii)
to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Indemnification Agreement (including,
without limitation, all portions of any paragraphs of this Indemnification Agreement containing any
such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that are not themselves invalid,
illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the
provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable and to give effect to Section 12 above.



14. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or amendment of this
Indemnification Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties
hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Indemnification Agreement shall be deemed or
shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar) and except as
expressly provided herein, no such waiver shall constitute a continuing waiver.



15. Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Indemnification Agreement shall bind,
and shall inure to the benefit of, the successors and assigns of the parties hereto.



16. Notice. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this
Indemnification Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given (i) if delivered by
hand and receipt is provided by the party to whom such communication is delivered or (ii) if mailed
by certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, return receipt requested, on the signing by
the recipient of an acknowledgment of receipt form accompanying deliver through the U.S. mail,
(iii) personal service by a process server, or (iv) delivery to the recipient’s address by
overnight delivery (e.g. FedEx, UPS or DHL) or other commercial delivery service. Addresses for
notice to either party are as shown on the signature page of this Indemnification Agreement, or as
subsequently modified by written notice complying with the provisions of this Section 16. Delivery
of communications to the Company with respect to this Indemnification Agreement shall be sent to
the attention of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.



17. No Presumptions. For purposes of this Indemnification Agreement, the termination
of any Proceeding, by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval) or
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet any particular standard of conduct or have any
particular belief or that a court has determined that indemnification is not permitted by
applicable law or otherwise. In addition, neither the failure of the Company or a Reviewing Party
to have made a determination as to whether the Indemnitee has met any particular standard of
conduct or had any particular belief, nor an actual determination by the Company or a Reviewing
Party that the Indemnitee has not met such standard of conduct or did not have such belief, prior
to the commencement of Proceedings by the Indemnitee to secure a judicial determination by
exercising the Indemnitee’s rights under Section 7 or 9(d) of this Indemnification Agreement that
the Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law shall be a defense to the Indemnitee’s
claim or create a presumption that the Indemnitee has failed to meet any particular standard of
conduct or did not have any particular belief or is not entitled to indemnification under
applicable law or otherwise.



18. Survival of Rights. The rights conferred on the Indemnitee by this Indemnification
Agreement shall continue after the Indemnitee has ceased to serve the Company or a Subsidiary or
Affiliate of the Company as an indemnifiable person and shall inure to the benefit of the
Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators.



19. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Indemnification Agreement, the
Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the
Indemnitee, who shall execute all documents required and shall do all acts that may be necessary to
secure such rights and to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.



20. Specific Performance. The parties recognize that if any provision of this
Indemnification Agreement is violated by the Company, the Indemnitee may be without an adequate
remedy at law. Accordingly, in the event of any such violation, the Indemnitee shall be entitled,
if the Indemnitee so elects, to institute Proceedings, either in law or at equity, to obtain
damages, to enforce specific performance, to enjoin such violation, or to obtain any relief or any
combination of the foregoing as the Indemnitee may elect to pursue.



21. Counterparts. This Indemnification Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each
of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom
enforceability is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this Indemnification
Agreement.



22. Headings. The headings of the sections and paragraphs of this Indemnification
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this
Indemnification Agreement or to affect the construction of interpretation thereof.



23. Governing Law. This Indemnification Agreement shall be governed exclusively by and
construed according to the laws of the State of Delaware, as applied to contracts between Delaware
residents entered into and to be performed entirely with Delaware.



24. Consent to Jurisdiction. The Company and the Indemnitee each hereby irrevocably
consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware for all purposes in connection
with any action or Proceeding which arises out of or relates to this Indemnification Agreement.



The parties hereto have entered into this Indemnification Agreement effective as of the date
first above written.
