and Other Indemnification Procedures</I>. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section&nbsp;8 of notice of the commencement
of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section&nbsp;8,
notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve
it from any liability to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a proximate result of such failure and will not relieve it from
any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than under the indemnity agreement contained in
this Section&nbsp;8. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to
seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it shall
elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly
after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such indemnified party; <I>provided</I>, <I>however</I>, such indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in
any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such

may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that
there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to
the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses
and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from
the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party&rsquo;s election so to assume the defense of such action
and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section&nbsp;8
for any fees and expenses of counsel subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i)&nbsp;the
indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood,
however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel),
representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii)&nbsp;the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the
action, in each of which cases, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.</FONT></P>

The indemnifying party under this Section&nbsp;8 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written
consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify
the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party
for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this Section&nbsp;8, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i)&nbsp;such settlement is entered into more than 30&nbsp;days

indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior

action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i)&nbsp;includes an unconditional release
of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (ii)&nbsp;does
not include any statements as to or any findings of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.</FONT></P>

If the indemnification provided for in Section&nbsp;8 hereof is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to
hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (i)&nbsp;in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Notes pursuant to
this Agreement or (ii)&nbsp;if the allocation provided by clause&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;above but also the relative fault of
the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions or inaccuracies
in the representations and warranties herein which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the
other hand, in connection with the offering of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions
as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company,
and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth on the front cover page&nbsp;of the Prospectus
bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Notes. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters,
on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact, any such omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, or any such inaccurate or alleged inaccurate representation
or warranty relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Underwriters, on the other hand, and the parties&rsquo;

or defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in Section&nbsp;8 hereof with respect to notice of commencement of any action

the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the
