If any Damages are paid by the Indemnified Parties as a result of a demand for payment made against the Indemnified Parties by the SBA or the Bank with respect to the guarantee under the Loans, the Indemnified Parties shall promptly notify Propell in writing of the institution of such action; provided, however, the failure to give such notice shall not release Propell from its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Parties hereunder except to the extent Propell actually incurs damage by reason of such failure and shall not release Propell from any other obligations or liabilities to the indemnified Parties in any event. Propell shall immediately upon receipt of evidence that the Indemnified Parties have paid such Damages, remit to the Indemnified Parties an amount of money equal to the Damages paid by the indemnified Parties.

On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, Purchaser shall purchase from Sellers, and Sellers shall sell to Purchaser, the Shares, free and clear of all options, proxies, voting trusts, voting agreements, judgments, pledges, charges, escrows, rights of first refusal or first offer, mortgages, indentures, claims, transfer restrictions, liens, equities, encumbrances, security interests and other encumbrances of every kind and nature whatsoever, whether arising by agreement, operation of law or otherwise (collectively, “Claims”).

The transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be consummated (the “Closing”) at 9:00 a.m., prevailing business time, at the offices of ANTH 1, Inc. on July 17, 2008, or on such date that the conditions of Closing set forth in this Agreement are satisfied or waived, or on such other date, or at such other place, as shall be agreed upon by Sellers and Purchaser.

1.4  

Piggy-back Registration Rights.  If at any time while the Common Stock issued on conversion of the Note contains any restrictive legend the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act on a form which permits registration of shares for resale, it will each such time promptly give written notice to the stockholder of its intention to do so together with the name of the proposed underwriter, if any, and, subject to the provisions herein, upon the written request of the stockholder delivered within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such notice (which request shall state the intended method of disposition of such Common Stock), the Company will use its best efforts to cause any or all of the stockholder’s Common Stock to be registered under the Securities Act, all to the extent requisite to permit the sale or other disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof, as aforesaid), provided, however, that the Company may, at any time, withdraw or cease proceeding with any such registration if it shall at the same time withdraw or cease proceeding with the registration of such other securities originally proposed to be registered.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to register any of the Shares if such shares could then be sold by the holder pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

The indemnified party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the loss resulting from an Indemnified Claim.

(b) Third Party Claim. If any Indemnity Claim is based upon any claim, demand, suit or action of any third party against an indemnified party (a “Third Party Claim”), then the indemnified party, at the time it delivers the Notice of Claim with respect to such Third Party Claim, shall offer to the indemnifying party the option to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim, which option may be exercised by the indemnifying party by written notice to the indemnified party, acknowledging its indemnification obligation under this Article 8 with respect to such Third Party Claim and assuming the defense thereof, within fifteen (15) days after the indemnified party gives written notice thereof. If the indemnifying party exercises the option, then it shall at its own expense assume the defense of the Third Party Claim, shall upon the final determination thereof fully discharge at its own expense all liability of the indemnified party with respect to the Third Party Claim, and shall be entitled, at its sole expense but without any liability of the indemnified party therefor, to compromise or settle the Third Party Claim. From the time the indemnifying party so assumes such defense and while such defense is pursued diligently in good faith, the indemnifying party shall have no liability for attorneys’ fees or other costs of defense incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the Third Party Claim. If the indemnifying party does not exercise the option to defend a Third Party Claim, or fails to diligently defend such Third Party Claim, then the indemnified party may undertake to defend such Third Party Claim at the expense of the indemnifying party.
