any registration statement filed by the Company or any Subsidiary under the 1933 Act or the 1934
Act.

included in the SEC Filings filed prior to the date hereof or as described on
-13-
Schedule 4.18, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any
liabilities, contingent or otherwise, except those incurred in the ordinary course of business,

expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.19 Insurance Coverage. The Company and each Subsidiary maintains in full force and
effect insurance coverage that is customary for comparably situated companies for the business

risks against which it is customary for comparably situated companies to insure.
4.20 [reserved]
4.21 Brokers and Finders. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the

4.23 No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates, nor any

the transactions contemplated hereby or would require registration of the Securities under the 1933
Act.
4.24 Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Investment Representations (as
defined in Section 6.2(a) of this Agreement), the offer and sale of the Securities to the Investor
as contemplated hereby is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.
4.25 Questionable Payments. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to
the Companys Knowledge, any of their respective current or former directors, officers, employees,

or employees from corporate funds; (c) established or maintained any unlawful or unrecorded fund of
corporate monies or other assets; (d) made any false or fictitious
-14-
entries on the books and records of the Company or any Subsidiary; or (e) made any unlawful bribe,

directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of
services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise
requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the Companys
Knowledge, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial
interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.
4.27 Internal Controls. The Company is in material compliance with the provisions of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 currently applicable to the Company. The Company and the
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable
assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with managements general or specific
authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is
permitted only in accordance with managements general or specific authorization, and (iv) the
recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and
appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company has established
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 1934 Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information
relating to the Company, including the Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by
others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Companys most recently
filed periodic report under the 1934 Act, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Companys
certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys controls and procedures as of
the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act (such
date, the Evaluation Date). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report
under the 1934 Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the
disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the
Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Companys internal controls (as such
term is defined in Item 308 of Regulation S-K), to the Companys Knowledge, in other factors that
could significantly affect the Companys internal controls. The Company maintains and will
continue to maintain a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance
with GAAP and the applicable requirements of the 1934 Act.
4.28 Disclosures. Neither the Company nor any Person acting on its behalf has
provided the Investor or its agent with any information that constitutes or might constitute
material, non-public information, other than the terms of the transactions contemplated hereby.
The written materials delivered to the Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

or otherwise affect the Investors right to rely on the Companys representations and warranties
contained in this Agreement.

any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation

investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and
the costs of enforcement thereof) (collectively, Losses) to which such Person may become subject
as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be
performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any such
Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such Person; provided, however, that such
indemnifiable Losses shall not exceed the amount of the Purchase Price.
8.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification
hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which
it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such
claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any
person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to
participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses,
or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such
person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person
and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the
indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of
the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of
such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of
any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of
its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially
adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is
understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same
jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any
time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the
indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or
-21-
plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim
or litigation.
