expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action,
suit, proceeding or any claim asserted) under the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities

regarding non-participation, or non-pro rata participation, in such round by such
stockholder), or made by a third party against Indemnitee based on any misstatement or

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by

be liable to the Indemnitee under this Agreement for any Expenses incurred by the
Indemnitee after the date such notice was received. The Indemnitee shall be

the same respective proportions that the net proceeds from the offering (before
deducting expenses) received by the Company and Indemnitee, in each case as set
forth in the table on the cover page of the applicable prospectus, bear to the
aggregate public offering price of the securities so offered. The relative fault of
the Company and Indemnitee shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Company or Indemnitee and the parties&#146; relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The
Company and Indemnitee agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 4(g) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation
or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
