The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended March 31, 2006 (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 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 Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) or, to the Company’s knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls.

     7.   Indemnification and Contribution.

          (a)   Indemnification of the Underwriter. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold you harmless against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which you may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or in any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Shares (“Marketing Materials”), (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any breach of the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein, and will reimburse you for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending against such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or in any Marketing Materials, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by you specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

     In addition to its other obligations under this Section 7(a), the Company agrees that it will reimburse you for all reasonable legal fees or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, described in this Section 7(a), as such fees and expenses are incurred.

          (b)   Indemnification of the Company. You will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with your written consent), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by you, specifically for use in the preparation thereof, and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with

           investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by you consists of the statements set forth in the second, seventh, eighth and ninth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting” in the Prospectus (the “Purchaser Information”).

          (c)   Notice and Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided, that the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent such indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of the indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that if, in the sole judgment of the indemnified party, it is advisable for the indemnified party to be represented by separate counsel, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ a separate counsel to represent it, in which event the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the indemnified party or parties except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying party in writing, (ii) the indemnifying party has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the indemnifying party and the position of the indemnified party, in which case, if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it 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 action on behalf of such indemnified party, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. An indemnifying party shall not be obligated under any settlement agreement relating to any action under this Section 7 to which it has not agreed in writing. In addition, no indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party for all liability on claims that are the subject matter of the proceeding.

          (d)   Contribution; Limitation on Liability. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above, (i) in such proportion

25

as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and you on the other from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and you on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and you on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bears to the total underwriting compensation received by you. The relative fault 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 you and the parties’ relevant intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and you agree that they would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if you were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party (and not reimbursed by the indemnifying party) in connection with investigating or defending against any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection, you shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by you and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that you have 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 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

          (e)   Non-Exclusive Remedies. The obligations of the Company under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls you within the meaning of the Securities Act; and your obligations under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability that you may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the Company (including any person who, with his consent, is named in the Registration Statement as about to become a director of the Company), to each officer of the Company who has signed the Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

     8.   Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties, and agreements of the Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto, and the agreements of you and the Company contained in Section 7 hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on your behalf or any controlling person thereof, or the Company or any of its officers, directors, or controlling persons and shall survive delivery of, and payment for, the Shares. The respective agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements set forth in Sections 5, 7 and 9 hereof shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement.

     9.   Termination.

          (a)   You shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice as hereinafter specified at any time at or prior to the Closing Date, without liability on your part to the Company, if, prior to delivery and payment for the Shares (i) trading in securities generally shall have been suspended or materially limited or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on NASDAQ, the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the National Association of Securities Dealers Inc., the Chicago Board Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade (each, a “Trading Market”), or additional material governmental restrictions, not in force on the date of this Agreement, shall have been imposed upon trading in securities generally by any of the foregoing Trading Markets or by order of the Commission or any court or other governmental authority; (ii) trading in the Common Stock of the Company shall have been suspended by the Commission or by NASDAQ, or trading of any other securities issued or guaranteed by the Company shall have been suspended on any Trading Market or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by federal, New York or California state authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism within or outside the United States or there shall have been a declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, (vi) any change in general economic, political or financial conditions in the United States or elsewhere or any other calamity or crisis shall have occurred, or (vii) there has been any Material Adverse Effect, if the effect of any such event specified in clause (v), (vi) or (vii), in your judgment, makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the sale of and payment for the Shares on the Closing Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement and the Prospectus. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 5, Section 7 and Section 12 hereof shall at all times be effective notwithstanding such termination.

          (b)   If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to any of the provisions hereof (other than a termination of your engagement pursuant to Section 9(a)), or if the sale of the Shares provided for herein is not consummated by reason of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Company to perform any agreement on its part to be performed, or because any other condition of your obligations hereunder required to be fulfilled by the Company is not fulfilled, the Company will, subject to demand by you, reimburse you for all reasonable out-of-pocket disbursements (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by you in connection with this Agreement and the proposed offering of the Shares.
