proceeding,  did not reasonably believe his conduct was lawful.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing,  the  Consultant  shall not indemnify the Company with respect to
any claim,  issue or matter as to which the Company  shall have been adjudged to
be liable for gross  negligence or willful  misconduct  in  connection  with the
performance of the  Consultant's  duties  pursuant to this Agreement  unless and
only to the extent that the court on which such action or suit was brought shall
determine upon application that, despite the adjunction of liability, bu in view
of all circumstances of the case, the Company is fairly and reasonably  entitled
