Section 5.Indemnification.


a.Indemnification by the Company.
The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its partners, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives,
and each Person (a “Controlling Person”), if any, who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Section
15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), against any losses, claims, damages, and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), arising out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered and sold under
the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
and the Company will reimburse each Holder for any reasonable legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceedings; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof)
or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission made in such
registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Holder specifically stating that it is for use
in the preparation thereof. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on
behalf of the Holders or any such controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Holders.






    	7 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT



    	 



    

b.Indemnification by the Holders.
Each Holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 5(a)) the
Company, each member of the Board, each officer, employee, agent and representative of the Company and each of their respective
Controlling Persons, with respect to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in or omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus
contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder regarding
such Holder giving such indemnification specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation of such registration statement,
preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force
and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any such Board member, officer, employee, agent,
representative or Controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by any Holder. The obligation of a Holder
to indemnify will be several and not joint among the Holders of Registrable Securities and the liability of each such Holder of
Registrable Securities will be in proportion to and limited in all events to the net amount received by such Holder from the sale
of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement.


c.Notices of Claims, etc. Promptly
as reasonably practicable after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving
a claim referred to in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 5, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is
to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided, however,
that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations
under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 5, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such
failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s
reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim,
the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, for itself, if applicable, together with any other indemnified
party similarly notified, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof.






    	8 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT



    	 



    

d.Indemnification Payments.
To the extent that the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of an action brought against the indemnified party as provided
in Section(c)(c), the indemnified party (or parties if there is more than one) shall be entitled to the reasonable legal expenses
of common counsel for the indemnified party (or parties). In such event, however, the indemnifying party will not be liable for
any settlement effected without the written consent of such indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The indemnification required by this Section 5 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of an
investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred. No indemnifying party
shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any
claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity
could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release
of such indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.


e.Contribution. If, for any
reason, the foregoing indemnity is unavailable, or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party, then the indemnifying
party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of the expense, loss, damage or liability,
(i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified
party on the other (determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or omission relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or the indemnified party and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission) or (ii) if the
allocation provided by subclause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law or provides a lesser sum to the indemnified party
than the amount hereinafter calculated, in the proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative fault of the indemnifying
party and the indemnified party, but also the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified
party on the other, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.


No indemnified party guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying
party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation, and the liability for contribution of each Holder of Registrable
Securities will be in proportion to and limited in all events to the net amount received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable
Securities pursuant to such registration statement.


Section 6.Covenants Relating To
Rule 144. At such times as the Company becomes obligated to file reports in compliance with either Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, the Company covenants that it will file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act and that it will take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time
to enable Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions
provided by (a) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time or (b) any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the Commission.

Company then holding Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock enter into similar
agreements for not less than the entire time period required of the Holders hereunder.
