                            MAGUIRE PROPERTIES, INC.

Company's directors and officers liability insurance policies; and

         WHEREAS, the Indemnitee is relying upon the rights afforded under this
Agreement in accepting Indemnitee's position as a director or officer of the

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as
follows:

         1.       Definitions.

                  (a)      "Corporate Status" describes the status of a person
who is serving or has served (i) as a director, officer or employee of the
Company, (ii) in any capacity with respect to any employee benefit plan of the
Company, or (iii) as a director, partner, member, trustee, officer, employee, or
agent of any other Entity at the request of the Company.

                  (b)      "Entity" shall mean any corporation, partnership,
limited liability company, joint venture, trust, foundation, association,
organization or other legal entity and any group or division of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries.

                  (c)      "Expenses" shall mean all reasonable fees, costs and
expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with
any Proceeding (as defined below), including, without limitation, attorneys'

investigators and professional advisors (including, without limitation,
accountants), court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts, travel expenses,
duplicating, printing and binding costs, telephone and fax transmission charges,

expenses.

                  (d)      "Indemnifiable Expenses," "Indemnifiable Liabilities"

Section 4 below.

                                        1

<PAGE>

                  (e)      "Liabilities" shall mean judgments, damages,
liabilities, losses, penalties, excise taxes, fines and amounts paid in
settlement.

                  (f)      "Proceeding" shall mean any threatened, pending or
completed claim, action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution
process, investigation, administrative hearing, appeal, or any other proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether formal or
informal, including a proceeding initiated by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12
of this Agreement to enforce Indemnitee's rights hereunder.

         2.       Services of Indemnitee. In consideration of the Company's
covenants and commitments hereunder, Indemnitee agrees to serve as a director or
officer of the Company. However, this Agreement shall not impose any obligation
on Indemnitee or the Company to continue Indemnitee's service to the Company
beyond any period otherwise required by law or by other agreements or
commitments of the parties, if any.

         3.       Agreement to Indemnify

         The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee, and advance Indemnifiable
Expenses to, Indemnitee (a) as specifically provided in this Agreement and (b)
otherwise to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland law in effect on the date
hereof and as amended from time to time; provided, however, that no change in
Maryland law shall have the effect of reducing the benefits available to
Indemnitee hereunder based on Maryland law as in effect on the date hereof. The
rights of Indemnitee provided in this Section shall include, but shall not be
limited to, the rights set forth in the other Sections of this Agreement,
including any additional indemnification permitted by Section 2-418(g) of the
Maryland General Corporation Law (the "MGCL").

         4.       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 if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened
to be, made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed Proceeding, other
than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 4,
Indemnitee shall be indemnified by the Company against all Expenses and
Liabilities actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in
connection with a Proceeding by reason of his Corporate Status (referred to
herein as "Indemnifiable Expenses" and "Indemnifiable Liabilities,"
respectively, and collectively as "Indemnifiable Amounts") unless it is
established that (i) the act or omission of the Indemnitee was material to the
matter giving rise to the Proceeding and (a) was committed in bad faith or (b)
was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (ii) the Indemnitee actually
received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services, or (iii)
in the case of any criminal Proceeding, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to
believe that his conduct was unlawful.

         5.       Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee
shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 5
if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company to
procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to this Section 5, Indemnitee shall be
indemnified against all amounts paid in settlement and all Indemnifiable
Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection
with such Proceeding unless it is established that (i) the act or omission of
the Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to such a Proceeding and
(a) was committed in bad faith or (b) was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty or (ii) the Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit
in

                                       2

<PAGE>

money, property or services; provided, however, that no indemnification against
such Indemnifiable Expenses shall be made in respect of any Proceeding in which
Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company.

         6.       Court-Ordered Indemnification. A court of appropriate
jurisdiction, upon application of a director or officer and such notice as the
court shall require, may order indemnification in the following circumstances:

                  (a)      if it determines a director or officer is entitled to
Indemnifiable Amounts under Section 2-418(d)(1) of the MGCL, the court shall
order indemnification, in which case the director or officer shall be entitled
to recover the expenses of securing such Indemnifiable Amounts; or

                  (b)      if it determines that the director or officer is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of all the relevant
circumstances, whether or not the director or officer (i) has met the standards
of conduct set forth in Section 2-418(b) of the MGCL or (ii) has been adjudged
liable for receipt of an improper personal benefit under Section 2-148(c) of the
MGCL, the court may order such indemnification as the court shall deem proper.
However, indemnification with respect to any Proceeding by or in the right of
the Company or in which liability shall have been adjudged in the circumstances
described in Section 2-418(c) of the MGCL shall be limited to Indemnifiable
Expenses.

         7.       Procedure for Payment of Indemnifiable Amounts. Indemnitee
shall submit to the Company a written request specifying the applicable
Indemnifiable Amounts for which Indemnitee seeks payment under this Agreement
and the basis for the claim. Subject to the exceptions set forth in Sections 4
and 5, the Company shall pay such applicable Indemnifiable Amounts to Indemnitee
within twenty (20) calendar days of receipt of the request. At the request of
the Company, Indemnitee shall furnish such documentation and information as are
reasonably available to Indemnitee and necessary to establish that Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification hereunder.

         8.       Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or
Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and
without limiting any such provision to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason
of Indemnitee's Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or
otherwise, in any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified for all
Indemnifiable Expenses reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee's
behalf in connection therewith. Without limiting any other rights of Indemnitee
in this Agreement, 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 for all Indemnifiable Expenses reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or
on Indemnitee's behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim,
issue or matter. For purposes of this Agreement, 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.

         9.       Effect of Certain Resolutions. Neither the settlement nor
termination of any Proceeding nor the failure of the Company to award
indemnification or to determine that indemnification is payable shall create an
adverse presumption that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder. In addition, the termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order or

                                        3

<PAGE>

settlement shall not create a presumption that the act or omission of the
Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to the Proceeding and was
committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty or
the Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property
or services or with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable
cause to believe that Indemnitee's action was unlawful. The termination of any
Proceeding by conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent,
or an entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, does not create a
rebuttable presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard
of conduct. In addition, the termination of or resignation by Indemnitee shall
not create an adverse presumption that Indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder.

         10.      Agreement to Advance Interim Expenses. The Company shall pay
to Indemnitee all Indemnifiable Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection
with any Proceeding, including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company,
in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding, if Indemnitee furnishes
the Company with a written affirmation by the Indemnitee of the Indemnitee's
good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by
the Company has been met and a written undertaking by or on behalf of the
Indemnitee to repay the amount of such Indemnifiable Expenses advanced to
Indemnitee if it is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that
Indemnitee is not entitled under this Agreement to indemnification with respect
to such Indemnifiable Expenses. The terms and conditions of such undertaking
shall be determined by a quorum of the disinterested members of the Board of
Directors, if any, acting in good faith and as required by the proper exercise
of their duties or, if not available, then by the written opinion of independent
legal counsel or by the Company's stockholders.

         11.      Procedure for Payment of Interim Expenses. Indemnitee shall
submit to the Company a written request specifying the Indemnifiable Expenses
for which Indemnitee seeks an advancement under Section 10 of this Agreement,
together with documentation evidencing that Indemnitee has incurred such
Indemnifiable Expenses. Payment of Indenmifiable Expenses under Section 10 shall
be made no later than twenty (20) calendar days after the Company's receipt of
such request and the affirmation and undertaking required by Section 10.

         12.      Remedies of Indemnitee.

                  (a)      Right to Petition Court. In the event that Indemnitee
makes a request for payment of Indemnifiable Amounts under Sections 3,4 and 5
above or a request for an advancement of Indemnifiable Expenses under Sections
10 and 11 above and the Company fails to make such payment or advancement in a
timely manner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Indemnitee may petition
the appropriate judicial authority to enforce the Company's obligations under
this Agreement.

                  (b)      Burden of Proof. In any judicial proceeding brought
under Section 12(a) above, the Company shall have the burden of proving that
Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of Indemnifiable Amounts hereunder.

                  (c)      Expenses. The Company agrees to reimburse Indemnitee
in full for any Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with
investigating, preparing for, litigating, defending or settling any action
brought by Indemnitee under Section 12(a) above, or in connection with any claim
or counterclaim brought by the Company in connection therewith.

                                        4

<PAGE>

                  (d)      Validity of Agreement. The Company shall be precluded
from asserting in any Proceeding, including, without limitation, an action under
Section 12(a) above, that the provisions of this Agreement are not valid,
binding and enforceable or that there is insufficient consideration for this
Agreement and shall stipulate in court that the Company is bound by all the
provisions of this Agreement.

                  (e)      Failure to Act Not a Defense. The failure of the
Company (including its Board of Directors or any committee thereof, independent
legal counsel, or stockholders) to make a determination concerning the
permissibility of the payment of Indemnifiable Amounts or the advancement of
Indemnifiable Expenses under this Agreement shall not be a defense in any action
brought under Section 12(a) above, and shall not create a presumption that such
payment or advancement is not permissible.

         13.      Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company
hereby represents and warrants to Indemnitee as follows:

                  (a)      Authority. The Company has all necessary corporate
power and authority to enter into, and be bound by the terms of, this Agreement,
and the execution, delivery and performance of the undertakings contemplated by
this Agreement have been duly authorized by the Company.

                  (b)      Enforceability. This Agreement, when executed and
delivered by the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof, shall be a
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the
Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally or general
equitable principles, and to the extent limited by applicable federal or state
securities laws.

         14.      Insurance. The Company will use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain and maintain a policy or policies of insurance with reputable
insurance companies providing the members of the Board of Directors with
coverage for losses from wrongful acts, and to ensure the Company's performance
of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement. In all policies of
director and officer liability insurance, Indemnitee shall be named as an
insured in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee at least the same rights and
benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company's officers
and directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company, after employing
commercially reasonable efforts as provided in this Section, determines in good
faith that such insurance is not reasonably available, if the premium costs for
such insurance are disproportionate to the amount of coverage provided, or if
the coverage provided by such insurance is limited by exclusions so as to
provide an insufficient benefit, the Company shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain a policy or policies of insurance with
coverage having features as similar as practicable to those described above.

         15.      Fees and Expenses. During the term of the Indemnitee's service
as a director or officer, the Company shall promptly reimburse the Indemnitee
for all expenses incurred by him in connection with his service as a director or
officer or member of any board committee or otherwise in connection with the
Company's business.

                                       5

<PAGE>

         16.      Contract Rights Not Exclusive. The rights to payment of
Indemnifiable Amounts and advancement of Indemnifiable Expenses provided by this
Agreement shall be in addition to, but not exclusive of, any other rights which
Indemnitee may have at any time under applicable law, the Company's Bylaws, as
amended, Charter, or any other agreement, vote of stockholders or directors, or
otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee's official capacity and as to action
in any other capacity as a result of Indemnitees's serving as a director or
officer of the Company.

         17.      Successors. This Agreement shall be (a) binding upon all
successors and assigns of the Company (including any transferee of all or a
substantial portion of the business, stock and/or assets of the Company and any
direct or indirect successor by merger or consolidation or otherwise by
operation of law) and (b) binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the
heirs, personal representatives, executors and administrators of Indemnitee.
This Agreement shall continue for the benefit of Indemnitee and such heirs,
personal representatives, executors and administrators after Indemnitee has
ceased to have Corporate Status.

         18.      Subrogation. In the event of any payment of Indemnifiable
Amounts under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of
such payment to all of the rights of contribution or recovery of Indemnitee
against other persons, and Indemnitee shall take, at the request of the Company,
all reasonable action necessary to secure such rights, including the execution
of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to
enforce such rights.

         19.      Change in Law. To the extent that a change in applicable law
(whether by statute or judicial decision) shall permit broader indemnification
than is provided under the terms of the Charter, as amended, or Bylaws of the
Company, as amended, and this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to such
broader indemnification and this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to such
extent.

         20.      Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement, or any clause
thereof, shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such provision or clause shall be
limited or modified in its application to the minimum extent necessary to make
such provision or clause valid, legal and enforceable, and the remaining
provisions and clauses of this Agreement shall remain fully enforceable and
binding on the parties.

         21.      Indemnitee as Plaintiff. Except as provided in Section 12 of
this Agreement and in the next sentence, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to
payment of Indemnifiable Amounts or advancement of Indemnifiable Expenses with
respect to any Proceeding brought by Indemnitee against the Company, any Entity
which it controls, any director or officer thereof, or any third party, unless
(a) the Proceeding is brought to enforce indemnification under this Agreement or
otherwise or (b) the Company's Bylaws, as amended, the Charter, a resolution of
the Board of Directors or an agreement approved by the Board of Directors to
which the Company is party expressly provide otherwise. This Section shall not
apply to affirmative defenses asserted by Indemnitee in an action brought
against Indemnitee.

         22.      Modifications and Waiver. Except as provided in Section 19
above with respect to changes in applicable law which broaden the right of
Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Company, no supplement, modification or
amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless

                                        6

<PAGE>

executed in writing by each 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 of this Agreement (whether or not similar), nor shall such
waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

         23.      General Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been

         1.       Definitions.

                  (a)      "Corporate Status" describes the status of a person
who is serving or has served (i) as a director, officer or employee of the
Company, (ii) in any capacity with respect to any employee benefit plan of the
Company, or (iii) as a director, partner, member, trustee, officer, employee, or
agent of any other Entity at the request of the Company.

                  (b)      "Entity" shall mean any corporation, partnership,
limited liability company, joint venture, trust, foundation, association,
organization or other legal entity and any group or division of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries.

                  (c)      "Expenses" shall mean all reasonable fees, costs and
expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with
any Proceeding (as defined below), including, without limitation, attorneys'

disbursements and retainers incurred by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12 of

investigators and professional advisors (including, without limitation,
accountants), court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts, travel expenses,
duplicating, printing and binding costs, telephone and fax transmission charges,
postage, delivery services, secretarial services, and other disbursements and

                  (d)      "Indemnifiable Expenses," "Indemnifiable Liabilities"

Section 4 below.

                                        1

<PAGE>

                  (e)      "Liabilities" shall mean judgments, damages,
liabilities, losses, penalties, excise taxes, fines and amounts paid in
settlement.

                  (f)      "Proceeding" shall mean any threatened, pending or
completed claim, action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution
process, investigation, administrative hearing, appeal, or any other proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether formal or
informal, including a proceeding initiated by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12
of this Agreement to enforce Indemnitee's rights hereunder.

         2.       Services of Indemnitee. In consideration of the Company's
covenants and commitments hereunder, Indemnitee agrees to serve as a director or
officer of the Company. However, this Agreement shall not impose any obligation
on Indemnitee or the Company to continue Indemnitee's service to the Company
beyond any period otherwise required by law or by other agreements or
commitments of the parties, if any.

         3.       Agreement to Indemnify

         The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee, and advance Indemnifiable
Expenses to, Indemnitee (a) as specifically provided in this Agreement and (b)
otherwise to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland law in effect on the date
hereof and as amended from time to time; provided, however, that no change in
Maryland law shall have the effect of reducing the benefits available to
Indemnitee hereunder based on Maryland law as in effect on the date hereof. The
rights of Indemnitee provided in this Section shall include, but shall not be
limited to, the rights set forth in the other Sections of this Agreement,
including any additional indemnification permitted by Section 2-418(g) of the
Maryland General Corporation Law (the "MGCL").

         4.       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 if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened
to be, made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed Proceeding, other
than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 4,
Indemnitee shall be indemnified by the Company against all Expenses and
Liabilities actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in
connection with a Proceeding by reason of his Corporate Status (referred to
herein as "Indemnifiable Expenses" and "Indemnifiable Liabilities,"
respectively, and collectively as "Indemnifiable Amounts") unless it is
established that (i) the act or omission of the Indemnitee was material to the
matter giving rise to the Proceeding and (a) was committed in bad faith or (b)
was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (ii) the Indemnitee actually
received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services, or (iii)
in the case of any criminal Proceeding, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to
believe that his conduct was unlawful.

         5.       Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee
shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 5
if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company to
procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to this Section 5, Indemnitee shall be
indemnified against all amounts paid in settlement and all Indemnifiable
Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection
with such Proceeding unless it is established that (i) the act or omission of
the Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to such a Proceeding and
(a) was committed in bad faith or (b) was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty or (ii) the Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit
in

                                        2

<PAGE>

money, property or services; provided, however, that no indemnification against
such Indemnifiable Expenses shall be made in respect of any Proceeding in which
Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company.

         6.       Court-Ordered Indemnification. A court of appropriate
jurisdiction, upon application of a director or officer and such notice as the
court shall require, may order indemnification in the following circumstances:

                  (a)      if it determines a director or officer is entitled to
Indemnifiable Amounts under Section 2-418(d)(1) of the MGCL, the court shall
order indemnification, in which case the director or officer shall be entitled
to recover the expenses of securing such Indemnifiable Amounts; or

                  (b)      if it determines that the director or officer is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of all the relevant
circumstances, whether or not the director or officer (i) has met the standards
of conduct set forth in Section 2-418(b) of the MGCL or (ii) has been adjudged
liable for receipt of an improper personal benefit under Section 2-148(c) of the
MGCL, the court may order such indemnification as the court shall deem proper.
However, indemnification with respect to any Proceeding by or in the right of
the Company or in which liability shall have been adjudged in the circumstances
described in Section 2-418(c) of the MGCL shall be limited to Indemnifiable
Expenses.

         7.       Procedure for Payment of Indemnifiable Amounts. Indemnitee
shall submit to the Company a written request specifying the applicable
Indemnifiable Amounts for which Indemnitee seeks payment under this Agreement
and the basis for the claim. Subject to the exceptions set forth in Sections 4
and 5, the Company shall pay such applicable Indemnifiable Amounts to Indemnitee
within twenty (20) calendar days of receipt of the request. At the request of
the Company, Indemnitee shall furnish such documentation and information as are
reasonably available to Indemnitee and necessary to establish that Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification hereunder.

         8.       Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or
Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and
without limiting any such provision to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason
of Indemnitee's Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or
otherwise, in any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified for all
Indemnifiable Expenses reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee's
behalf in connection therewith. Without limiting any other rights of Indemnitee
in this Agreement, 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 for all Indemnifiable Expenses reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or
on Indemnitee's behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim,
issue or matter. For purposes of this Agreement, 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.

         9.       Effect of Certain Resolutions. Neither the settlement nor
termination of any Proceeding nor the failure of the Company to award
indemnification or to determine that indemnification is payable shall create an
adverse presumption that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder. In addition, the termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order or

                                        3

<PAGE>

settlement shall not create a presumption that the act or omission of the
Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to the Proceeding and was
committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty or
the Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property
or services or with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable
cause to believe that Indemnitee's action was unlawful. The termination of any
Proceeding by conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent,
or an entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, does not create a
rebuttable presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard
of conduct. In addition, the termination of or resignation by Indemnitee shall
not create an adverse presumption that Indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder.

         10.      Agreement to Advance Interim Expenses. The Company shall pay
to Indemnitee all Indemnifiable Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection
with any Proceeding, including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company,
in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding, if Indemnitee furnishes
the Company with a written affirmation by the Indemnitee of the Indemnitee's
good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by
the Company has been met and a written undertaking by or on behalf of the
Indemnitee to repay the amount of such Indemnifiable Expenses advanced to
Indemnitee if it is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that
Indemnitee is not entitled under this Agreement to indemnification with respect
to such Indemnifiable Expenses. The terms and conditions of such undertaking
shall be determined by a quorum of the disinterested members of the Board of
Directors, if any, acting in good faith and as required by the proper exercise
of their duties or, if not available, then by the written opinion of independent
legal counsel or by the Company's stockholders.

         11.      Procedure for Payment of Interim Expenses. Indemnitee shall
submit to the Company a written request specifying the Indemnifiable Expenses
for which Indemnitee seeks an advancement under Section 10 of this Agreement,
together with documentation evidencing that Indemnitee has incurred such
Indemnifiable Expenses. Payment of Indenmifiable Expenses under Section 10 shall
be made no later than twenty (20) calendar days after the Company's receipt of
such request and the affirmation and undertaking required by Section 10.

         12.      Remedies of Indemnitee.

                  (a)      Right to Petition Court. In the event that Indemnitee
makes a request for payment of Indemnifiable Amounts under Sections 3,4 and 5
above or a request for an advancement of Indemnifiable Expenses under Sections
10 and 11 above and the Company fails to make such payment or advancement in a
timely manner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Indemnitee may petition
the appropriate judicial authority to enforce the Company's obligations under
this Agreement.

                  (b)      Burden of Proof. In any judicial proceeding brought
under Section 12(a) above, the Company shall have the burden of proving that
Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of Indemnifiable Amounts hereunder.

                  (c)      Expenses. The Company agrees to reimburse Indemnitee
in full for any Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with
investigating, preparing for, litigating, defending or settling any action
brought by Indemnitee under Section 12(a) above, or in connection with any claim
or counterclaim brought by the Company in connection therewith.

                                        4

<PAGE>

                  (d)      Validity of Agreement. The Company shall be precluded
from asserting in any Proceeding, including, without limitation, an action under
Section 12(a) above, that the provisions of this Agreement are not valid,
binding and enforceable or that there is insufficient consideration for this
Agreement and shall stipulate in court that the Company is bound by all the
provisions of this Agreement.

                  (e)      Failure to Act Not a Defense. The failure of the
Company (including its Board of Directors or any committee thereof, independent
legal counsel, or stockholders) to make a determination concerning the
permissibility of the payment of Indemnifiable Amounts or the advancement of
Indemnifiable Expenses under this Agreement shall not be a defense in any action
brought under Section 12(a) above, and shall not create a presumption that such
payment or advancement is not permissible.

         13.      Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company
hereby represents and warrants to Indemnitee as follows:

                  (a)      Authority . The Company has all necessary corporate
power and authority to enter into, and be bound by the terms of, this Agreement,
and the execution, delivery and performance of the undertakings contemplated by
this Agreement have been duly authorized by the Company.

                  (b)      Enforceability. This Agreement, when executed and
delivered by the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof, shall be a
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the
Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally or general
equitable principles, and to the extent limited by applicable federal or state
securities laws.

         14.      Insurance. The Company will use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain and maintain a policy or policies of insurance with reputable
insurance companies providing the members of the Board of Directors with
coverage for losses from wrongful acts, and to ensure the Company's performance
of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement. In all policies of
director and officer liability insurance, Indemnitee shall be named as an
insured in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee at least the same rights and
benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company's officers
and directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company, after employing
commercially reasonable efforts as provided in this Section, determines in good
faith that such insurance is not reasonably available, if the premium costs for
such insurance are disproportionate to the amount of coverage provided, or if
the coverage provided by such insurance is limited by exclusions so as to
provide an insufficient benefit, the Company shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain a policy or policies of insurance with
coverage having features as similar as practicable to those described above.

         15.      Fees and Expenses. During the term of the Indemnitee's service
as a director or officer, the Company shall promptly reimburse the Indemnitee
for all expenses incurred by him in connection with his service as a director or
officer or member of any board committee or otherwise in connection with the
Company's business.

                                       5

<PAGE>

         16.      Contract Rights Not Exclusive. The rights to payment of
Indemnifiable Amounts and advancement of Indemnifiable Expenses provided by this
Agreement shall be in addition to, but not exclusive of, any other rights which
Indemnitee may have at any time under applicable law, the Company's Bylaws, as
amended, Charter, or any other agreement, vote of stockholders or directors, or
otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee's official capacity and as to action
in any other capacity as a result of Indemnitees's serving as a director or
officer of the Company.

         17.      Successors. This Agreement shall be (a) binding upon all
successors and assigns of the Company (including any transferee of all or a
substantial portion of the business, stock and/or assets of the Company and any
direct or indirect successor by merger or consolidation or otherwise by
operation of law) and (b) binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the
heirs, personal representatives, executors and administrators of Indemnitee.
This Agreement shall continue for the benefit of Indemnitee and such heirs,
personal representatives, executors and administrators after Indemnitee has
ceased to have Corporate Status.

         18.      Subrogation. In the event of any payment of Indemnifiable
Amounts under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of
such payment to all of the rights of contribution or recovery of Indemnitee
against other persons, and Indemnitee shall take, at the request of the Company,
all reasonable action necessary to secure such rights, including the execution
of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to
enforce such rights.

         19.      Change in Law. To the extent that a change in applicable law
(whether by statute or judicial decision) shall permit broader indemnification
than is provided under the terms of the Charter, as amended, or Bylaws of the
Company, as amended, and this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to such
broader indemnification and this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to such
extent.

         20.      Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement, or any clause
thereof, shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such provision or clause shall be
limited or modified in its application to the minimum extent necessary to make
such provision or clause valid, legal and enforceable, and the remaining
provisions and clauses of this Agreement shall remain fully enforceable and
binding on the parties.

         21.      Indemnitee as Plaintiff. Except as provided in Section 12 of
this Agreement and in the next sentence, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to
payment of Indemnifiable Amounts or advancement of Indemnifiable Expenses with
respect to any Proceeding brought by Indemnitee against the Company, any Entity
which it controls, any director or officer thereof, or any third party, unless
(a) the Proceeding is brought to enforce indemnification under this Agreement or
otherwise or (b) the Company's Bylaws, as amended, the Charter, a resolution of
the Board of Directors or an agreement approved by the Board of Directors to
which the Company is party expressly provide otherwise. This Section shall not
apply to affirmative defenses asserted by Indemnitee in an action brought
against Indemnitee.

         22.      Modifications and Waiver. Except as provided in Section 19
above with respect to changes in applicable law which broaden the right of
Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Company, no supplement, modification or
amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless

                                        6

<PAGE>

executed in writing by each 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 of this Agreement (whether or not similar), nor shall such
waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

         23.      General Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
duly given (a) when delivered by hand, (b) when transmitted by facsimile and
