the indemnification provided for in this Section&nbsp;9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a)&nbsp;or

indemnified party in respect of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto), contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such

the Underwriter on the other from the offering of the Shares to which such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) relates. If, however, the allocation provided by the
immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Transaction Entities on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Transaction Entities on the
one hand and the Underwriter on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from such offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Transaction Entities

fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Transaction Entities on the one hand or the Underwriter on the other and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Transaction Entities and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contributions pursuant to this subsection (d)&nbsp;were determined by </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>pro rata</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d)&nbsp;shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by
which the total price at which the applicable Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which the Underwriter has otherwise
been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section&nbsp;11(f)
of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The indemnifying party shall not be required to indemnify the
indemnified party for any amount paid or payable by the indemnified party in the settlement of any action, proceeding or investigation without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. </FONT></P>
