(b)                                 The Company contemplates an aggregate of approximately $600,000 of the Securities being offered (the “Offering”); provided, that the Company shall not be required to accept less than $400,000.

 

(c)                                  The Company, the Selling Agent and Private Bank Minnesota shall enter into a Proceeds Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) providing for the release of proceeds of the Offering upon terms to be agreed to which are contemplated to include the receipt of written confirmation from the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research that it has waived the defaults by the Company and that the license agreement effective August 1, 2009 has been full y reinstated or reissued.

investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Selling Agent specifically for use in the preparation of the Offering Documents or any additions or supplements thereto. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

 

The foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in any form of the Offering Documents but eliminated or remedied by amendment or supplement to the Offering Documents, such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of the Selling Agent or each such controlling person with respect to any loss, liability, claim or damage asserted by any person who purchased the Securities which are the subject thereof, if the Offering Documents was so amended or supplemented prior to such acceptance of the subscription.

 

(b)                                 The Selling Agent (to the extent that it is not limited by judgment of a proper court of law under the Act), will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each person who controls (as such term is defined under Rule 405 under the Act) the Company within the meaning of the Act, each of its directors, and each of its officers, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint and several, to which the Company, any such controlling person, director or officer may become subject, under the act or otherwise, 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 any material fact contained in the Offering Documents, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the 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 is made in the Offering Documents, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Selling Agent specifically for use in the preparation thereof; and the Selling Agent will reimburse the Company, any such controlling person, director or officer for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as incurred. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Selling agent may otherwise have.

 

(c)                                  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section, notify each indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof. The indemnification provided for in this Section 9 shall not be available to any party who fails to so notify each indemnifying party to the extent that the indemnifying party to whom notification was not given was unaware of the action to which the notification would have related and was prejudiced by the failure to notify; provided, however, that the omission to so notify each indemnifying party will not relieve any indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this section. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and,

 


 

to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, and selection of counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

 

(d)                                 As an interim measure during the pendency of any claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding as to which indemnification hereunder is sought, the Company will reimburse the Selling Agent on a monthly basis for all reasonable legal fees or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, notwithstanding the absence of a judicial determination as to the propriety and enforceability of the Company’s obligation to reimburse the Selling agent for such expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be held to have been improper by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that any such interim reimbursement payment is ultimately held to have been improper, the Selling Agent shall promptly return it to the party or parties that made such payment, together with interest, compounded daily, determined on the basis of the base rate (or other commercial lending rate for borrowers of the highest credit standing) announced from time to time by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, (“Prime Rate”). Any such interim reimbursement payments which are not made to the Selling agent within 30 days of a request for reimbursement shall bear interest at the Prime Rate from the date of such request.

 

(e)                                  In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in Sections 9(a) or 9(b) is for any reason held, by a court of competent jurisdiction, to be unenforceable as to any party entitled to indemnity, the Company and the Selling Agent, or any controlling person of the foregoing, shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claims asserted) to which the Company and the Selling agent, or any controlling person of the foregoing, may be subject (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Selling agent on the other from the offering contemplated hereby 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 of the Selling agent on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Selling agent 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 bear to the total sales commissions received by the Selling agent. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Selling agent on the other 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 by the Selling agent and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. No person guilty of fraudulent

 


 

misrepresentation or guilty of misstating or misrepresenting a material fact or failing to state a material fact shall be entitled to contribution, as to any liability arising from such fraudulent misrepresentation or omission, from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent or other misrepresentation or omission.

 

10.                               TERMINATION.  The Selling Agent shall have the right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement by giving the Company notice as hereinafter specified at any time on or prior to the termination of the Offering if the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable to perform any agreement on its part to be performed, if there shall have been a breach of any warranty or representation of the Company contained herein, or because any other conditions of the Selling Agent’s obligations set forth herein are not fulfilled. The Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving the Selling Agent notice as hereinafter specified at any time on or prior to termination of the Offering if the Selling Agent shall have failed, refused or been unable to perform any agreement on its part to be performed, if there shall have been a breach of any warranty or representation of the Selling Agent contained herein, or because any other conditions of the Company’s obligations set forth herein are not fulfilled. Except as provided in Section 11, any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party.
