Exhibit 4.4 SERIES D CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT THIS SERIES D CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made March 7, 1997 (the "Effective Date"), by and between WEBTV NETWORKS, INC., a California corporation (the "Company"), and SEAGATE TECHNOLOGY, INC., a Delaware Corporation (the "Purchaser"). R E C I T A L S --------------- A. The Company desires to sell to the Purchaser and the Purchaser desires to purchase from the Company shares of the Company's Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. B. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given them in Section 7.1 of this Agreement. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements herein, and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows: ARTICLE 1 PURCHASE, SALE AND TERMS OF SHARES 1.1 The Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company agrees to issue sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase, 1,343,570 shares of the Company's Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, without par value (the "Series D Preferred"), at a price of $10.42 per share (the "Per Share Price"), for an aggregate purchase price of Thirteen Million Nine Hundred Ninety Nine Thousand Nine Hundred Ninety Nine Dollars and Forty Cents ($13,999,999.40) (the shares of Series D Preferred sold hereunder are sometimes referred to as the "Shares"). If, within ninety (90) days of the date of this Agreement, an agreement is signed providing for a Financing Event to occur at a per share price above the Per Share Price, the Per Share Price shall be adjusted upwards to a price which is eighty five percent (85%) of the per share price in such Financing Event. Upon execution by the Company of an agreement providing for such a Financing Event, the Purchaser and the Company each agree to promptly make any filing under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the "H-S-R Act") which is required as a result of the foregoing increase in the Per Share Price. Immediately following the expiration or early termination of the waiting period under the H-S-R Act with respect to such filing, the Purchaser agrees to pay the additional amount owed to the Company as a result of the foregoing increase in the Per Share Price; provided that the Company shall refund such additional amount to the Purchaser if the Financing Event giving rise to such filing under the H-S-R Act is not consummated. If the Purchaser pays such additional amount, the Company will, at the Purchaser's request, seek to cause the Company's Articles of Incorporation to be amended so that the Liquidation Preference of the Series D Preferred reflects the amount ultimately paid by the Purchaser for the Series D Preferred. The designation, rights, preferences and other terms and conditions relating to the Series D Preferred shall be as set forth in Exhibit A hereto. Any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred are herein referred to as the "Conversion Shares." 1.2 Reservation of Shares. The Company will prior to the Closing (as defined herein) authorize and reserve and hereby covenants to continue to reserve a sufficient number of its previously authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to satisfy the rights of conversion of the holders of the Series D Preferred. 1.3 The Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of Shares hereunder (the "Closing") shall be held at the offices of Venture Law Group, A Professional Corporation, 2800 Sand Hill Road, Menlo Park, California, on March 7, 1997, at 7:00 a.m., or on such other date and at such time as may be mutually agreed upon (the date of such Closing being referred to as the "Closing Date"). At the Closing, the Company will issue and deliver a stock certificate evidencing the Shares sold at the Closing to the Purchaser, against payment of the purchase price for such Shares by certified bank check or wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Company. 1.4 Representations by the Purchaser.

If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its Common Stock or any equity securities exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock under the Securities Act, whether or not for sale for its own account (the "Company Securities"), in a manner which would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public under the Securities Act, each such time it will promptly deliver a Registration Notice to each Holder, which Registration Notice will describe the rights of each Holder under this Section 5.2, at least 20 days prior to the anticipated filing date of the registration statement relating to such registration. Such notice shall offer each Holder the opportunity to include in such registration statement such number of Registrable Securities held by such Holder as such Holder may request. Upon the written request of the Holders requesting Registrable Securities to be registered pursuant to such registration statement (collectively, the "Piggyback Securities"), made within 10 days after the receipt of the Company's Registration Notice, which request shall specify the number of Piggyback Securities intended to be disposed of, the Company will use its best efforts to effect, in connection with the registration of the Company Securities, the registration under the Securities Act of all Piggyback Securities, to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with such intended methods thereof) of the Piggyback Securities, provided that: -12- (a) Relief from Company Obligation. If, at any time after giving such written notice of its intention to register any Company Securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register the Company Securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Holder and thereupon the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register the Piggyback Securities in connection with the registration of such Company Securities (but not from its obligation to pay Registration Expenses to the extent incurred in connection therewith as provided in Section 5.3 hereof), without prejudice, however, to the right of the Holder immediately to request that such registration be effected as a registration under Section 5.1 hereof to the extent permitted thereby. (b) Reduction in Piggyback Securities. If the registration referred to in the first sentence of this Section 5.2 is to be an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriter(s) advise the Company in writing that, in their good faith opinion, inclusion of all the Piggyback Securities together with all other securities of the Company that are entitled to "piggyback" registration rights in such offering would materially and adversely affect the offering and sale of the Company Securities, including the per share price thereby obtainable, the Company shall only include in such registration: (i) first, all the Company Securities being registered for sale for the Company's own account, with such priorities among them as the Company may determine, (ii) second, up to the full number of securities of the Company having "piggyback" registration rights which, in the good faith opinion of such underwriter(s) can be so sold without materially and adversely affecting such offering (and, if less than the full number of such "piggyback" securities, allocated pro rata among the Holders and the other holders of securities of the Company that are entitled to "piggyback" registration rights other than the Founders (the "Other Non-Founder Holders") on the basis of the number of securities requested to be included therein by each such Holder and Other Non- Founder Holder) and (iii) finally, up to the full number of securities of the Company that are entitled to "piggyback" registration rights held by the Founders which, in the good faith opinion of such underwriter(s) can be so sold without materially and adversely affecting such offering (and, if less than the full number of such securities, allocated pro rata among the Founders on the basis of the number of securities requested to be included therein by each such Founder). (c) Exceptions. The Company shall not be required to effect any registration of Registrable Securities held by any Holder under this Section 5.2 incidental to the registration of any of its securities in connection with mergers, acquisitions, exchange offers, subscription offers, dividend reinvestment plans or stock option or other employee benefit plans. (d) No Effect on Demand Rights. No registration of Registrable Securities effected under this Section 5.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to effect a registration of other Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof. (e) Withdrawal of Piggyback Securities. A Holder may withdraw all or any part of the Holder's Piggyback Securities from the proposed registration at any time prior to the later of (i) the registration statement being declared effective by the SEC and (ii) the execution of any underwriting agreement. -13- (f) Same Terms and Conditions. The Company may require that any Piggyback Securities be included in the offering proposed by the Company on the same terms and conditions as the Company Securities are included therein. 5.3 Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with (i) each Demand and (ii) all registrations of Holders' Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 5.2. In the event the requesting Holder withdraws a Registration Notice, abandons a registration statement or following an effected Demand does not sell Registrable Securities, then all Registration Expenses in respect of such Registration Notice shall be borne, at the requesting Holder's option, either by the requesting Holder or by the Company (in which case, if borne by the Company and subject to Section 5.1(d) hereof, such withdrawn Registration Notice shall be deemed to be an effected Demand for purposes of Section 5.1 hereof). 5.4 Registration and Qualification. If and whenever the Company is required to use its best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in Sections 5.1 or 5.2 hereof, the Company will as promptly as is practicable: (a) prepare and file with the SEC, as soon as possible, and use its best efforts to cause to become effective, a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the Registrable Securities to be offered on such form as the requesting Holder, or if not filed pursuant to a Demand, the Company, determines and for which the Company then qualifies; (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post- effective amendments) and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities until the later of such time as all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such registration statement or the expiration of one hundred twenty (120) days after such registration statement becomes effective; (c) furnish to the Holder and to any underwriter of Registrable Securities such number of conformed copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, such documents incorporated by reference in such registration statement or prospectus, and such other documents, as the Holder or such underwriter may reasonably request, and, if requested, a copy of any and all transmittal letters or other correspondence to, or received from, the SEC or any other governmental agency or regulatory body or other body having jurisdiction (including any domestic or foreign securities exchange) relating to such offering; (d) make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement at the earliest possible moment; (e) use its best efforts to register or qualify all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or blue sky laws of any domestic jurisdiction, -14- and to list or qualify for such securities exchanges and other trading markets, as the requesting Holder or any underwriter of such Registrable Securities shall request, and use its best efforts to obtain all necessary registrations, permits and consents required in connection therewith, and do any and all other acts and things which are reasonably requested to enable the Holder or any such underwriter to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it is not so qualified, or to subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction; (f) if requested by a requesting Holder, (i) furnish to each Holder an opinion of counsel for the Company addressed to each Holder and dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement (if any) (or if such offering is not underwritten, dated the effective date of the registration statement), and (ii) use its best efforts to furnish to each Holder a "comfort" or "special procedures" letter addressed to each Holder and signed by the independent public accountants who have audited the Company's financial statements included in such registration statement, in each such case covering substantially the same matters with respect to such registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer's counsel and in accountants' letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities and such other matters as the Holder may reasonably request and, in the case of such accountants' letter, with respect to events subsequent to the date of such financial statements; (g) immediately notify the Holders in writing (i) at any time when a prospectus relating to a registration pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2 hereof is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (ii) of any request by the SEC or any other regulatory body or other body having jurisdiction for any amendment of or supplement to any registration statement or other document relating to such offering, and in either such case (i) or (ii) at the request of a Holder prepare and furnish to such Holders a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading; (h) use its best efforts to list all such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement on each securities exchange and inter- dealer quotation system on which a class of common equity securities of the Company is then listed, and to pay all fees and expenses in connection therewith; and (i) upon the transfer by a Holder in connection with a registration pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2 furnish unlegended certificates representing ownership of the Registrable -15- Securities being sold in such denominations as shall be requested by the Holders or the underwriters. 5.5 Underwriting; Due Diligence, etc. (a) Underwriting Agreement. If requested by the underwriters for any underwritten offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration requested under this Agreement, the Company will enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such offering, which, in the case of a Demand, shall be in form reasonably acceptable to the requesting Holder and which, in the case of a Company Registration Process, shall be in form reasonably acceptable to the Company, any such agreement to contain such representations and warranties by the Company and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, including indemnities and contribution (provided, any indemnities and contribution shall, unless the requesting Holder and the Company agree otherwise, be to the effect and only to the extent provided in Section 5.9 hereof) and the provision of opinions of counsel and accountants' letters to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 5.4(f) hereof; provided, however, the Company may negotiate and agree to differing indemnification obligations with respect to the underwriters, provided such (i) do not adversely affect the Holders with respect to their rights and obligations hereunder and (ii) shall not excuse the Company from entering into (or delaying the execution of) an underwriting agreement on the terms as provided herein. The Holder on whose behalf the Registrable Securities are to be distributed by such underwriters shall be parties to any such underwriting agreement, and the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the Holder. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to prevent any Holder from being required to make any representation or warranty, other than as to its ownership of the Registrable Securities and as to the due authorization, execution and enforceability, with respect to it, of the underwriting agreement. Such underwriter shall be instructed to use its reasonable best efforts to effect a wide distribution of the Registrable Securities being distributed so long as doing so shall not, in any manner, adversely affect the marketing (including timing) or price of such shares. The Company, if requested by the Requesting Holder or the underwriters, will enter into an agreement with the Independent Underwriter on customary terms. (b) Same Terms. In the event that any registration pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 5.2 shall involve, in whole or in part, an underwritten offering, the Company may require the Registrable Securities requested to be registered pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 5.2 to be included in such underwriting on the same terms and conditions as shall be applicable to the other securities being sold through underwriters under such registration. The representations and warranties in such underwriting agreement by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the Holders. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to prevent any Holder from being required to make any representation or warranty, other than as to its ownership of the Registrable Securities and as to the due authorization, execution and enforceability, with respect to it, of the underwriting agreement. In the event a Holder enters into any underwriting agreement with underwriters in connection with a registration which contains representations and warranties more extensive than -16- those contained in this Section 5.5 above, such an agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement by the Company. (c) Access to Books and Records. In connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement registering Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company will give the Holders of Registrable Securities and the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel and accountants, such reasonable and customary access to its books and records and such opportunities to discuss the business of the Company with its officers and the independent public accountants who have certified the Company's financial statements as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of such Holders and such underwriters or their respective counsel, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Holders and the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel and accountants, shall use their reasonable best efforts to coordinate and time their review so as to not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of the Company. (d) Offering Not Underwritten. In the event an offering pursuant to this Agreement is not underwritten, the Company, at the request of the requesting Holder, will enter into such agreements with any selling agents or similar persons as are customary; such agreements shall contain terms and provisions analogous to those described herein and, to the extent not so described, customary terms and provisions. 5.6 Restrictions on Public Sale; Inconsistent Agreements. (a) Lock-up. If required by an underwriter of Common Stock in connection with (i) the initial Qualified Public Offering or (ii) any registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 5.2, which registration is effected in an underwritten public offering, then, in each such case, the Holders agree not to effect any sale or distribution, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 (except as part of such registration), of any of the Company's common equity securities or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company (x) with respect to clause (i), for a period of time following the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto customary in underwritten initial public offerings, which period shall not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days (or such longer period as the Founders and all other holders of five percent (5%) or more of TVP shall accept), or (y) with respect to clause (ii) only for a period of time following the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto reasonably acceptable to the Holders, which period shall not exceed ninety (90) days (or such longer period as the Founders and all other holders of five percent (5%) of TVP shall accept). Such agreement shall be in writing in the form satisfactory to the Company and such underwriter. The Company may impose a stop-transfer instruction with respect to the shares (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such period. (b) No Distribution. The Company agrees (i) without the written consent of the managing underwriters, not to effect any public or private sale or distribution of the Company's common equity securities or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company, including a sale pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act, during the requesting Holder's Registration Process (except (A) as part of such underwritten registration or pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or any successor form -17- or (B) equity securities issued pursuant to the conversion or exchange of any securities convertible into or exchangeable for the Company's common equity securities and which were outstanding prior to the commencement of such Registration Process), and (ii) to use its reasonable efforts to cause each holder of its privately placed securities purchased from the Company at any time on or after the date of this Agreement to agree not to effect any public sale or distribution of any such securities during such period, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 (except as part of such underwritten registration, if permitted). 5.7 Rule 144. The Company hereby covenants that after the Company shall have filed a registration statement pursuant to the requirements of Section 12 of the Exchange Act or a registration statement pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act and such registration statement shall have become effective, the Company will file in a timely manner all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales under Rule 144), and it will take such further action as any Holder of Registrable Securities, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. Upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. In addition, the Company hereby agrees that for a period of eighteen months following the date on which a registration statement filed pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2 hereof shall have become effective, the Company shall not deregister such securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act (even if then permitted to do so pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder). 5.8 Transferability. A Holder of registration rights may transfer the rights to any transferee who holds, subsequent to such transfer, at least 250,000 shares (as adjusted for any Recapitalizations) of Series D Preferred or Common Stock issued up conversion thereof or other securities exercisable for or convertible into Registrable Securities; provided (a) the Company must first be given written notice of the transfer, and (b) such transferee shall have agreed in writing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to be bound by the terms of this Article 5 to the same extent and in the same manner as the transferor of such shares or securities. 5.9 Indemnification and Contribution. With respect only to the offering of Registrable Securities contemplated by this Agreement, and in no way limiting or modifying the other provisions of this Agreement, the following indemnity and contribution provisions shall apply: (a) Indemnification by Company. In the case of each offering of Registrable Securities made pursuant to this Agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities, each underwriter of Registrable Securities so offered, each person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing persons within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the officers and directors of any of the foregoing from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, expenses and judgments, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, and shall promptly reimburse them, as and when incurred, for any legal or other expenses incurred by them in connection with -18- investigating any claims and defending any actions, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions shall arise out of, or shall be based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein) or in any offering memorandum or other offering document relating to the offering and sale of such Registrable Securities, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any document incorporated by reference therein, or any 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 shall arise out of or be based upon any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, any blue sky laws, securities laws or other applicable laws of any state or country in which the Registrable Securities are offered and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such offering; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to a particular Holder of Registrable Securities in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission, (i) if such statement or omission shall have been made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use in the preparation of the registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein), offering memorandum or other offering document, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or a document incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing or (ii) if such statement or omission was corrected in a prospectus delivered to such Holders of Registrable Securities prior to the consummation of the sale in which such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon and such corrected prospectus shall not have been delivered or sent to the purchaser within the time required by the Securities Act, provided that the Company delivered the corrected prospectus to such Holders in requisite quantity on a timely basis to permit such delivery or sending. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of a Holder of Registrable Securities and shall survive the transfer of such securities. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to each Holder of Registrable Securities, underwriters of the Registrable Securities, any controlling person of any of the foregoing or any officer or director of any of the foregoing. (b) Indemnification by Holder. In the case of each offering of Registrable Securities made pursuant to this Agreement, each Holder of Registrable Securities included in such offering, by exercising its registration rights hereunder, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if requested by the underwriters, each underwriter who participates in the offering and each person, who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the officers and directors of any of the foregoing from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, expenses and judgments, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, and shall promptly reimburse them, as and when incurred, for any legal or other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating any claims and defending any actions, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions shall arise out of, or shall be based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or in any preliminary or final -19- prospectus included therein) or in any offering memorandum or other offering document relating to the offering and sale of such Registrable Securities, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any document incorporated by reference therein, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement of a material fact is contained in, or such material fact is omitted from, information relating to such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use in the preparation of such registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein), offering memorandum or other offering document or a document incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company and shall survive the transfer of such securities. The foregoing indemnity is in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have to the Company, or any of its directors, officers or controlling persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the liability of a Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such offering. (c) Procedure for Indemnification. Each party indemnified under this Section 5.9 shall, promptly after receipt of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be sought, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement thereof; provided that the failure of the indemnified party to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party on account of the indemnity agreements contained in this Section 5.9, unless the indemnifying party was materially prejudiced by such failure, and in no event shall relieve the indemnifying party from any other liability which it may have to such indemnified party. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof and the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable (except to the extent the proviso to this sentence is applicable, in which event it will be so liable) to the indemnified party under this Section 5.9 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided that each indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel to represent it and assume its defense (in which case, the indemnifying party shall not represent it) if, in the reasonable judgment of such indemnified party, (i) upon the advice of counsel, the representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, or (ii) in the event the indemnifying party has not assumed the defense thereof within 10 days of receipt of notice of such claim or commencement of action, and in which case the fees and expenses of one such separate counsel shall be paid by the indemnifying party. If any indemnified party employs such separate counsel it will not enter into any settlement agreement which is not approved by the indemnifying party, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. If the indemnifying party so assumes the defense thereof, it may not agree to any settlement of any such claim or action as -20- the result of which any remedy or relief, other than monetary damages for which the indemnifying party shall be responsible hereunder, shall be applied to or against the indemnified party, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party. In any action hereunder as to which the indemnifying party has assumed the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party, the indemnified party shall continue to be entitled to participate in the defense thereof, with counsel of its own choice, but, except as set forth above, the indemnifying party shall not be obligated hereunder to reimburse the indemnified party for the costs thereof. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.9 shall for any reason be unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any loss, claim, damages or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party on the one hand or the indemnified party on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission, but not by reference to any indemnified party's stock ownership in the Company. In no event, however, shall a Holder of Registrable Securities be required to contribute in excess of the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities in the offering which is the subject of such loss, claim, damages or liability. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this paragraph shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this paragraph, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 12(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
