5.        Expenses:  The Company shall reimburse the Consultant for actual out-of pocket expenses incurred by the Consultant in connection with the performance by the Consultant of its duties hereunder.

6.        Indemnification: The Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless each other and their affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling persons (The Parties and each such other persons and entities being an "Indemnified Party" for the purposes of this section) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, and liabilities to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under any applicable federal or state law, or otherwise related to or arising out of any transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the performance by the Consultant of the services contemplated by this Agreement, and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto; provided that the other party shall not be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party.

Any Party against whom indemnification may be sought shall not be liable to indemnify or provide contribution for any settlement effected without the indemnifying party's prior written consent.  In the event that the foregoing indemnity is unavailable or insufficient to hold any Indemnified Party harmless, then the other party shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by such Indemnified Party in respect of such losses, claims in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Parties, but also the relevant fault of each Party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
