EXHIBIT 10.2
                                                                    ------------

                        FORM OF INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

     This Indemnification Agreement, made and entered into as of this 12th day
of January, 2001 ("Agreement"), by and between Datawatch Corporation, a Delaware
corporation ("Company"), and Richard de J. Osborne ("Indemnitee"):

     WHEREAS, highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve
corporations as directors, officers or in other capacities unless they are
provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification
against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their
service to and activities on behalf of the corporation;

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") has determined
that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals, the Company will
attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability
insurance to protect persons serving the Company and its subsidiaries from
certain liabilities. Although the furnishing of such insurance has been a
customary and widespread practice among United States-based corporations and
other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market
conditions and trends, such insurance may be available to it in the future only
at higher premiums and with more exclusions. At the same time, directors,
officers, and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises
are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming litigation
relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been
brought only against the corporation or business enterprise itself;

     WHEREAS, the uncertainties relating to such insurance and to
indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such
persons;

     WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the increased difficulty in
attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of
the Company's stockholders and that the Company should act to assure such
persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future;

     WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company
contractually to obligate itself to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the
Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified;

     WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the
By-Laws of the Company and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and shall
not be deemed a substitute therefore, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of
Indemnitee thereunder;

     WHEREAS, the Company's By-Laws and the Delaware corporate indemnification
statute (Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) each is
<PAGE>

nonexclusive and, therefore, contemplates that contracts may be entered into
with respect to indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents;

     WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company
contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf
of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they
will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they
will not be so indemnified; and

     WHEREAS, Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on
additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that
Indemnitee be so indemnified.

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

     Section 1.  Services by Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees to serve as a
director, officer, employee and/or agent of the Company and/or any of its
subsidiaries, as the case may be, and may serve, at the request of the Company,
as a director, officer, employee and/or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (a
"Relevant Enterprise"). Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign
from such position (subject to any other contractual obligation or any
obligation imposed by operation of law), in which event the Company shall have
no obligation under this Agreement to continue Indemnitee in such position. This
Agreement shall not be deemed an employment contract between the Company (or any
of its subsidiaries) and Indemnitee. Indemnitee specifically acknowledges that
Indemnitee's employment with the Company (or any of its subsidiaries), if any,
is "at will", and the Indemnitee may be discharged at any time for any reason,
with or without cause, except as may be otherwise provided in any written
employment contract between Indemnitee and the Company (or any of its
subsidiaries), other applicable formal severance policies duly adopted by the
Board, or, with respect to service as a director of the Company and/or any of
its subsidiaries, Indemnitee specifically acknowledges that this Agreement does
not impose any obligation of the Company to continue Indemnitee's service to the
Company except as may otherwise be provided by the Company's or its
subsidiaries', as the case may be, Certificate of Incorporation, By-laws, and
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The foregoing
notwithstanding, subject to Section 12 hereof, this Agreement shall continue in
force after Indemnitee has ceased to serve as a director, officer, employee
and/or agent, as the case may be, of the Company and its subsidiaries or of a
Relevant Enterprise.

     Section 2.  Indemnification - General. The Company shall indemnify, and
advance Expenses (as hereinafter defined) to, Indemnitee (a) as provided in this
Agreement and (b) (subject to the provisions of this Agreement) to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law in effect on the date hereof and as amended
from time to time. The rights of Indemnitee provided under the preceding
sentence shall include, but shall not be limited to, the rights set forth in the
other Sections of this Agreement.
<PAGE>

     Section 3.  Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the
Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the
rights of indemnification provided in this Section 3 if, by reason of his
Corporate Status (as hereinafter defined), he is, or is threatened to be made, a
party to or a participant in any threatened, pending, or completed Proceeding
(as hereinafter defined), other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the
Company and/or any of its subsidiaries. Pursuant to this Section 3, Indemnitee
shall be indemnified against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his
behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein,
if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries and,
with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was unlawful.

     Section 4. Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company and/or any of its
Subsidiaries. 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 or a participant in any threatened, pending or
completed Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company and/or any of its
subsidiaries to procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to this Section,
Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses (including all interest,
assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect
of such Expenses) actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in
connection with such Proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company
and/or any of its subsidiaries; provided, however, that, if applicable law so
provides, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect of
any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall have
been adjudged to be liable to the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries unless
and to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or the
court in which such Proceeding shall have been brought or is pending, shall
determine that such indemnification may be made.

     Section 5. Partial Indemnification. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate
Status, a party to (or a participant in) and is successful, on the merits or
otherwise, in defense of any Proceeding, he shall be indemnified against all
Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection
therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in defense of 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 against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on
his behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter.
For purposes of this Section and without limitation, 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. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this agreement to
indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of the Expenses, judgments,
penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest,
assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect
of such Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement)
actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection
<PAGE>

with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, but not, however,
for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify
Indemnitee for the portion to which Indemnitee is entitled.

     Section 6.  Indemnification for Additional Expenses.

     (a) The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses
which are reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action
brought by Indemnitee for (i) indemnification or advance payment of Expenses by
the Company under this Agreement or any other agreement or By-Law of the Company
now or hereafter in effect, or (ii) recovery under any directors' and officers'
liability insurance policies maintained by the Company; but only to the extent
that Indemnitee prevails in such action and ultimately is determined to be
entitled to such indemnification, advance payment of Expenses or insurance
recovery, as the case may be. Indemnitee shall be entitled to advancement of
such Expenses pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 7
hereof.

     (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent
that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a witness in any
Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party, he shall be indemnified against
all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in
connection therewith.

     Section 7. Advancement of Expenses. The Company shall advance, without
duplication, all reasonable Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in
connection with any Proceeding within seven (7) days after the receipt by the
Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or
advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such
Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses
incurred by Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by an
undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it
shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified
against such Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligation of the
Company to advance Expenses pursuant to this Section 7 shall be subject to the
condition that, if, when and to the extent that the Company determines that
Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law, the
Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed, within thirty (30) days of such
determination, by Indemnitee (who hereby agrees to reimburse the Company) for
all such amounts theretofore paid; provided, however, that if Indemnitee has
commenced or thereafter commences legal proceedings in a court of competent
jurisdiction to secure a determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified
under applicable law, any determination made by the Company that Indemnitee
would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law shall not be
binding and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any
advance of Expenses until a final judicial determination is made with respect
thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or
lapsed).

     Section 8.  Procedure for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification.

     (a) To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit
to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such
documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is
reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification. The Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company
shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the
Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.

     (b) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to the
first sentence of Section 8(a) hereof, a determination, if required by
applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee's entitlement thereto shall be made
in the specific case: (i) if a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined) shall
have occurred, by Independent Counsel (as hereinafter defined) in a written
opinion to the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to
Indemnitee; or (ii) if a Change of Control shall not have occurred, (A) by a
majority vote of the Disinterested Directors (as hereinafter defined), even
though less than a quorum of the Board, or (B) if there are no such
Disinterested Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by
Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be
delivered to Indemnitee or (C) if so directed by the Board, by a majority vote
of a quorum of the outstanding shares of stock of all classes entitled to vote
for directors, voting as a single class, which quorum shall consist of
stockholders who are not at that time parties to the Proceeding in question;
and, if it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification,
payment to Indemnitee shall be made within seven (7) days after such
determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity
making such determination with respect to Indemnitee's entitlement to
indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon
reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not
privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably
available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any
costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements)
incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity
making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the
determination as to Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification), and the
Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

     (c) In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to
be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 8(b) hereof, the Independent
Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 8(c). If a Change of
Control shall not have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by
the Board, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him
of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Change of Control
shall have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee
(unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board, in
which event the preceding sentence shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give
prompt written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the
Independent Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as
the case may be, may, within 10 days after such written notice of selection
shall have been given, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the case may
be, a
<PAGE>

written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may
be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not
meet the requirements of "Independent Counsel" as defined in Section 17 of this
Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual
basis of such assertion. If such written objection is so made and substantiated,
the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless
and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such
objection is without merit. If, within 20 days after submission by Indemnitee of
a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 8(a) hereof, no
Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the
Company or Indemnitee, as the case may be, may petition the Court of Chancery of
the State of Delaware for resolution of any objection which shall have been made
by the Company or Indemnitee to the other's selection of Independent Counsel
and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the
Court or by such other person as the Court shall designate, and the person with
respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall
act as Independent Counsel under Section 8(b) hereof. The Company shall pay any
and all reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such
Independent Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to Section 8(b) hereof,
and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the
procedures of this Section 8(c), regardless of the manner in which such
Independent Counsel was selected or appointed. Upon the due commencement of any
judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 10(a) of this Agreement,
Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further
responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of
professional conduct then prevailing).

     (d) The Company shall not be required to obtain the consent of the
Indemnitee to the settlement of any Proceeding which the Company has undertaken
to defend if the Company assumes full and sole responsibility for such
settlement and the settlement grants the Indemnitee a complete and unqualified
release in respect of the potential liability. The Company shall not be liable
for any amount paid by the Indemnitee in settlement of any Proceeding that is
not defended by the Company, unless the Company has consented to such
settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     Section 9.  Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings.

     (a)  In making a determination with respect to entitlement to
indemnification or the advancement of expenses hereunder, the person or persons
or entity making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Agreement if Indemnitee
has submitted a request for indemnification or the advancement of expenses in
accordance with Section 8(a) of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the
burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by
any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption.
Neither the failure of the Company (including the Board or independent legal
counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action
pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances
because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual
determination by the Company (including the Board or
<PAGE>

independent legal counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard
of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that
Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

     (b) If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 8
of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the
Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to
indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be
entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a
material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee's
statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for
indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable
law; provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable
time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or
entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification
in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of
documentation and/or information relating thereto; provided, FURTHER, that the
foregoing provisions of this Section 9(b) shall not apply (i) if the
determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the
stockholders pursuant to Section 8(b) of this Agreement and if (A) within
fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Company of the request for such
determination, the Board of Directors has resolved to submit such determination
to the stockholders for their consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be
held within seventy-five (75) days after such receipt and such determination is
made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of stockholders is called within fifteen
(15) days after such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such
meeting is held for such purpose within sixty (60) days after having been so
called and such determination is made thereat, or (ii) if the determination of
entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to
Section 8(b) of this Agreement.

     (c) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter
therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of NOLO
CONTENDERE or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided
in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to
indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding,
that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

     (d) For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be
deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee's action is based on the
records or books of account of the Company or relevant subsidiary or Relevant
Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to
Indemnitee by the officers of the Company or relevant subsidiary or Relevant
Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for
the Company or relevant subsidiary or Relevant Enterprise, by an independent
certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with
reasonable care by the Company or relevant subsidiary or Relevant Enterprise.
The provisions of this Section 9(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to
<PAGE>

limit in any way the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed
to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.

     (e) The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any other director,
officer, agent or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Relevant
Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the
right to indemnification under this Agreement.

     Section 10.  Remedies of Indemnitee.

     (a) In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 8 of
this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this
Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 7
of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification
shall have been made pursuant to Section 8(b) of this Agreement within 90 days
after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification; provided,
however, that such 90-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to
exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making
the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith
requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation
and/or information relating thereto; provided, further, that the 90-day period
in this subsection (iii) shall not apply if the determination of entitlement of
indemnification is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 8(b) of
this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Company
of the request for such determination, the Board of Directors has resolved to
submit such determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an
annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy-five (75) days after such
receipt and such determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of
stockholders is called within fifteen (15) days after such receipt for the
purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose
within sixty (60) days after having been so called and such determination is
made thereat, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 5
or 6 of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a
written request therefor or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within
ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by the Court of
Chancery of the State of Delaware of his entitlement to such indemnification or
advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his option, may seek an
award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Indemnitee
shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in
arbitration within 180 days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the
right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 10(a); provided,
however, that the foregoing clause shall not apply in respect of a proceeding
brought by Indemnitee to enforce his rights under Section 5 of this Agreement.

     (b) In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to
Section 8(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to
this Section 10 shall be conducted in all respects as a DE NOVO trial, or
arbitration, on the merits, and Indemnitee
<PAGE>

shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. If a Change of
Control shall have occurred, in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced
pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall have the burden of proving that
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the
case may be.

     (c) If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 8(b) of
this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall
be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration
commenced pursuant to this Section 10, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee
of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make
Indemnitee's statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request
for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under
applicable law.

     (d) In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section 10, seeks a
judicial adjudication of or an award in arbitration to enforce his rights under,
or to record damages for breach of, this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled
to recover from the Company, and shall be indemnified by the Company against,
any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses in
Section 17 of this Agreement) actually and reasonably incurred by him in such
judicial adjudication or arbitration, but only if he prevails therein. If it
shall be determined in said judicial adjudication or arbitration that Indemnitee
is entitled to receive part but not all of the indemnification or advancement of
expenses sought, the expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such
judicial adjudication or arbitration shall be appropriately prorated.

     (e) The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial
proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 10 that the
procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and
enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator
that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.

     Section 11.  Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Subrogation.

     (a) The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of Expenses as
provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to
which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the relevant
company's Certificate of Incorporation, By-Laws, any agreement, a vote of
stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment,
alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or
restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action
taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such
amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, whether by statute or judicial
decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would
be afforded currently under the relevant company's By-Laws and this Agreement,
it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this
Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy
herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and
every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other
right and remedy given hereunder or
<PAGE>

now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or
employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the
concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.

     (b) To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or
policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees, or
agents of the Company and its subsidiaries or of a Relevant Enterprise,
Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or
their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such
director, officer, employee or agent under such policy or policies.

     (c) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be
subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of
Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary
to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to
enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.

     (d) The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any
payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent that
Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance
policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.

     (e) The Company's obligations to indemnify or advance expenses hereunder to
Indemnitee who is or was serving a Relevant Enterprise shall be reduced by any
amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of
expenses from such Relevant Enterprise.

     Section 12. Duration of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue until and
terminate upon the later of: (a) 10 years after the date that Indemnitee shall
have ceased to serve as a director, officer, employee and/or agent of the
Company and its subsidiaries or of any Relevant Enterprise; or (b) the final
termination of any Proceeding then pending in respect of which Indemnitee is
granted rights of indemnification or advancement of expenses hereunder and of
any proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement
relating thereto. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and his
heirs, executors and administrators.

     Section 13. Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement
shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever:
(a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of
this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section of
this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby; (b) such provision or provisions
shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law
and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (c) to
the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including,
without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any
such provision
<PAGE>

held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid,
illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent
manifested thereby.

     Section 14. Exception to Right of Indemnification or Advancement of
Expenses. Except as provided in Section 6(a) of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall
not be entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses under this
Agreement (including, with respect to subsection (c) of this Section 14, payment
of profits) with respect to any Proceeding (a) brought by Indemnitee (other than
a Proceeding by Indemnitee to enforce his rights under this Agreement), (b)
brought by the Company or any of its subsidiaries against the Indemnitee
alleging (x) a willful violation by the Indemnitee of the terms and conditions

     party or otherwise, by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a
     director, officer, employee and/or agent of the Company and/or any of its
     subsidiaries or of a Relevant Enterprise or by reason of any action taken
     by him or of any inaction on his part while acting in such capacity, in

     the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification or

Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise.

     Section 21.  Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
duly given (i) upon delivery, if delivered by hand and receipted for by the
