ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES. The Company shall advance all Expenses incurred<br \/>\nby Indemnitee. The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to<br \/>\nIndemnitee as soon as practicable, but in any event no later than thirty (30)<br \/>\ndays after written demand by Indemnitee therefor to the Company.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>b. NOTICE; COOPERATION BY INDEMNITEE. Indemnitee shall, as a condition<br \/>\nprecedent to Indemnitee&#8217;s right to be indemnified under this Agreement, give the<br \/>\nCompany notice in writing as soon as practicable of any Claim made against<br \/>\nIndemnitee for which Indemnification will or could be sought under this<br \/>\nAgreement, provided, however, that any failure to provide such notice shall not<br \/>\naffect Indemnitee&#8217;s rights to indemnification hereunder unless and to the extent<br \/>\nsuch failure to provide notice materially and adversely prejudices the Company&#8217;s<br \/>\nright to defend against such action. Notice to the Company shall be directed to<br \/>\nthe Chief Executive Officer of the Company at the address shown on the signature<br \/>\npage of this Agreement (or such other address as the Company shall designate in<br \/>\nwriting to Indemnitee), or if the Indemnitee is then the Chief Executive Officer<br \/>\nof the Company, such notice shall be directed to the Chairman of the Company&#8217;s<br \/>\nBoard of Directors, at the same address.

For purposes of this Agreement, the<br \/>\ntermination of any Claim by judgement, order, settlement (whether with or<br \/>\nwithout court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of guilty, by itself,<br \/>\nshall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular<br \/>\nstandard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court has determined<br \/>\nthat indemnification is not permitted by applicable law. In addition, neither<br \/>\nthe failure of the Reviewing Party to have made a determination as to whether<br \/>\nIndemnitee has met any particular standard of conduct or had any particular<br \/>\nbelief, nor an actual determination by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee has<br \/>\nnot met such standard of conduct or did not have such belief, prior to the<br \/>\ncommencement of legal proceedings by Indemnitee to secure a judicial<br \/>\ndetermination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law, shall<br \/>\nbe a defense against Indemnitee&#8217;s claim or create a presumption that Indemnitee<br \/>\nhas not met any particular standard of conduct or did not have any particular<br \/>\nbelief. In connection with any determination by the Reviewing Party or otherwise<br \/>\nas to whether the Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the burden<br \/>\nof proof shall be on the Company to establish that Indemnitee is not so<br \/>\nentitled.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">&#8211; 3 &#8211;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<hr>\n<\/p>\n<p>d.

The Company shall thereafter<br \/>\ntake all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf<br \/>\nof the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such action, suit,<br \/>\nproceeding, inquiry or investigation in accordance with the terms of such<br \/>\npolicies.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>e. SELECTION OF COUNSEL. In the event the Company shall be obligated<br \/>\nhereunder to pay the Expenses of any Claim, and the Company shall have confirmed<br \/>\nto Indemnitee in writing such obligation and that the maximum amount of Expenses<br \/>\nthat Indemnitee may incur in connection with the Claim in question will not<br \/>\nexceed the Limit Amount, in respect of such Claim, the Company shall be entitled<br \/>\nto assume the defense of such Claim with counsel approved by Indemnitee, which<br \/>\napproval shall not be unreasonably withheld, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of<br \/>\nwritten notice of its election to do so. After delivery of such written<br \/>\nconfirmation and such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the<br \/>\nretention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to<br \/>\nIndemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by<br \/>\nIndemnitee with respect to the same Claim; provided, that: (i) Indemnitee shall<br \/>\nhave the right to employ Indemnitee&#8217;s counsel in any such Claim at Indemnitee&#8217;s<br \/>\nexpense, and (ii) if (A) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been<br \/>\npreviously authorized by the Company, (B) Indemnitee shall have reasonably<br \/>\nconcluded that a potential conflict of interest between the Company and<br \/>\nIndemnitee may arise in the conduct of any such defense, or (C) the Company<br \/>\nshall not continue to retain such counsel to defend such Claim, then the fees<br \/>\nand expenses of Indemnitee counsel shall be at the expense of the Company. The<br \/>\nCompany shall have the right to conduct such defense as it sees fit in its sole<br \/>\ndiscretion, including the right to settle any claim against Indemnitee without<br \/>\nthe consent of the Indemnitee provided, the amount of such settlement does not<br \/>\nexceed the Limit Amount and any such settlement includes (i) a complete release<br \/>\ndischarge of indemnity, and (ii) does not contain any admittance of wrong doing<br \/>\nby Indemnitee, and (iii) is monetary only.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellpadding=\"0\" class=\" \" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"48\" valign=\"top\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"48\" valign=\"top\">\n<p>3.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<p>ADDITIONAL INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS; NONEXCLUSIVITY.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/p>\n<p>a.

In the event of any change after the date of this agreement of any<br \/>\napplicable law, statute or rule which expands the right of a corporation of the<br \/>\nCompany&#8217;s state of incorporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors<br \/>\nor an officer, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall<br \/>\nenjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits afforded by such change. In the<br \/>\nevent of any change in any applicable law, statute or rule which narrows the<br \/>\nright of a corporation of the Company&#8217;s country or state of incorporation to<br \/>\nindemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, employee, agent or<br \/>\nfiduciary, such change, to the extent not otherwise required by such law,<br \/>\nstatute or rule to be applied to this Agreement, shall have no effect on this<br \/>\nAgreement or the parties&#8217; rights and obligations hereunder except as set forth<br \/>\nin Section 8(a) hereof.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>b.

NO DUPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. The Company shall not be liable under this<br \/>\nAgreement to make any payment in connection with any Claim made against<br \/>\nIndemnitee to the extent Indemnitee has otherwise actually received payment<br \/>\n(under any insurance policy, the Articles or Memorandum of Association or<br \/>\notherwise) of the amounts otherwise Indemnifiable hereunder, except for the<br \/>\ndifference, if any, between the amounts received by the Indemnitee as aforesaid<br \/>\nand the total Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such Claim.
