Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the indemnity and contribution obligations of the Crown Selling Stockholders and the Executive Selling Stockholders shall be subject to the following additional limitations: (i) the U.S. Underwriters shall pursue and satisfy any and all claims arising under this Agreement or otherwise (collectively, 37 "Claims") by seeking recovery from the Company prior to pursuing any Claim against the Crown Selling Stockholders or the Executive Selling Stockholders, and the U.S. Underwriters shall thereafter be entitled to pursue any remaining unsatisfied Claims by seeking recovery from the Crown Selling Stockholders and the Executive Selling Stockholders only following the Company's failure to satisfy in full the Claims as a result of the Company's insolvency, bankruptcy or liquidation; (ii) the aggregate amount of any Selling Stockholder's indemnity and contribution obligations under this paragraph 15(a) shall not exceed the net cash proceeds received by such Selling Stockholder from its sale of Stock in the offering after reduction for (A) taxes, (B) underwriting commissions and discounts, (C) other fees and expenses incurred by such Selling Stockholder relating to the offering, including legal and financial advisory fees, and (D) the aggregate amount of any and all direct and indirect costs or expenses incurred by such Selling Stockholder in defense or settlement of any other claim against it relating or attributable to the offering or the sale of shares of Stock by such Selling Stockholder thereunder, including without limitation claims under the Act; and (iii) the Crown Selling Stockholders and the Executive Selling Stockholders shall be liable under this paragraph 15(a) solely with respect to any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus which was actually known by such Selling Stockholder as of the date of the Registration Statement or Prospectus (or such amendment or supplement thereto) to be untrue, or any omission to state a material fact which was actually known by such Selling Stockholder as of the date of the Registration Statement or Prospectus (or such amendment or supplement thereto) to be necessary to make the statements contained in the Registration Statement or Prospectus (or such amendment or supplement thereto) in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading as of the date of the Registration Statement or Prospectus (or such amendment or supplement thereto). The provisions of this Section 15 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy available to the U.S. Underwriters with respect to any claims against the Crown Selling Stockholders and the Executive Selling Stockholders relating to the offering or sale of shares by such Selling Stockholders hereunder. (b) Each Employee Selling Stockholder and each Sponsor Selling Stockholder, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless each U.S. Underwriter, its officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls any U.S. Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of Stock), to which that U.S. Underwriter, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any breach of the representations and warranties of such Employee Selling Stockholder or Sponsor Selling Stockholder, as the case may 38 be, contained herein, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, any 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 relates to information provided to the Company or the Representatives in writing by such Selling Stockholder specifically for use in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or to any breach of the representations and warranties made by such Employee Selling Stockholder or such Sponsor Selling Stockholder in Section 4 of this Agreement; and shall reimburse each U.S. Underwriter, its officers and employees and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that U.S. Underwriter, its officers and employees or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that such Employee Selling Stockholder or such Sponsor Selling Stockholder 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, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such U.S. Underwriter furnished to the Company through the Representatives by or on behalf of any U.S. Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein.; provided further that no Employee Selling Stockholder or Sponsor Selling Stockholder shall be liable to any U.S. Underwriter under the indemnity agreement in this paragraph 15(a) with respect to any Preliminary Prospectus to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such U.S. Underwriters results from the fact that such U.S. Underwriter sold shares of Common Stock to a person as to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof in the quantity requested and in a timely manner in accordance with Section 8(c) hereof to such U.S. Underwriter and the loss, claim, damage or liability of such U.S. Underwriter results from an untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus and corrected in the Prospectus as amended or supplemented. The foregoing indemnity agreement constitutes the sole and exclusive remedy available to the U.S. Underwriters with respect to any claims against the Employee Selling Stockholders and the Sponsor Selling Stockholders relating to the offering or sale of Shares by such Selling Stockholders hereunder. 39 (c) Each U.S. Underwriter, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers who sign the Registration Statement, each of its directors (including any person who, with his or her consent, is named in the Registration Statement as about to become a director of the Company), and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, any 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 the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such U.S. Underwriter furnished to the Company through the Representatives by or on behalf of that U.S. Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, and shall reimburse the Company and any such director, officer or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which any U.S. Underwriter may otherwise have to the Company or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person. (d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 15 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 15, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 15 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 15. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, 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 reasonably 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 40 indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 15 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have in good faith reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right to select a separate counsel in the defense of such action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred, provided further that in no event shall the foregoing proviso require the indemnifying party to bear the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel to represent jointly each of (i) the Representatives and those other U.S. Underwriters and their respective officers, employees and controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Section 15, (ii) the Company and its Subsidiaries, (iii) the Crown Selling Stockholders, (iv) the Executive Selling Stockholders, (v) the Employee Selling Stockholders and (vi) the Sponsor Selling Stockholders. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment of the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment to the extent provided in this Section 15. (e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 15 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient (other than by reason of the exceptions provided therein) to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 15(a), 15(b) or 15(c) in respect of any loss, claim, damage 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, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, the Crown Selling Stockholders, the Executive Selling Stockholders, the Employee Selling Stockholders and the 41 Sponsor Selling Stockholders on the one hand and the U.S. Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Stock 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, the Crown Selling Stockholders, the Executive Selling Stockholders, the Employee Selling Stockholders and the Sponsor Selling Stockholders on the one hand and the U.S. Underwriters 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 benefits received by the Company, the Crown Selling Stockholders, the Executive Selling Stockholders, the Employee Selling Stockholders or the Sponsor Selling Stockholders, on the one hand and the U.S. Underwriters on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Stock purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, the Crown Selling Stockholders, the Executive Selling Stockholders, the Employee Selling Stockholders or the Sponsor Selling Stockholders, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the U.S. Underwriters with respect to the shares of the Stock purchased under this Agreement, on the other hand, bear to the total gross proceeds from the offering of the shares of the Stock under this Agreement, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. 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 Company, the Crown Selling Stockholders, the Executive Selling Stockholders, the Employee Selling Stockholders, the Sponsor Selling Stockholders or the U.S. Underwriters, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company, the Crown Selling Stockholders, the Executive Selling Stockholders, the Employee Selling Stockholders, the Sponsor Selling Stockholders and the U.S. Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 15 were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if the U.S. Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. 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 Section 15 shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 15(e), 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 Section 15(e), no U.S. Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Stock underwritten by it and distributed to the public was offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such U.S. Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any 42 untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Selling Stockholder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the proceeds received by such person in respect of all shares of Stock offered and sold by it pursuant to the Registration Statement and 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. The U.S. Underwriters' obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 15(e) are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint. (f) The U.S. Underwriters severally confirm and the Company acknowledges that (i) the last paragraph on the cover page of the Prospectus, (ii) the stabilization legend at the top of page i of the Prospectus and (iii) the fourth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twenty- second paragraphs and the first sentence of the thirteenth paragraph under the caption "Underwriting" in the Prospectus constitute the only information concerning such U.S. Underwriters furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the U.S. Underwriters specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. (g) As used herein, the phrase "actual knowledge" means, with respect to any natural person, the knowledge of such person and, with respect to any other person, the knowledge of any natural person exercising control (whether by ownership or management) over such person, and shall not imply any duty to investigate or be deemed to include any knowledge that might have become actually known following investigation. The phrase "actually known" shall have a correlative meaning. 16. Defaulting U.S. Underwriters. If, on either Delivery Date, any U.S. Underwriter defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the remaining non- defaulting U.S. Underwriters shall be obligated to purchase the Firm Stock which the defaulting U.S. Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase on such Delivery Date in the respective proportions which the number of shares of the Firm Stock set opposite the name of each remaining non-defaulting U.S. Underwriter in Schedules 1 and 2 hereto bears to the total number of shares of the Firm Stock set opposite the names of all the remaining non-defaulting U.S. Underwriters in Schedules 1 and 2 hereto; provided, however, that the remaining non-defaulting U.S. Underwriters shall not be obligated to purchase any of the Stock on such Delivery Date if the total number of shares of the Stock which the defaulting U.S. Underwriter or U.S. Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such date exceeds 9.9% of the total number of shares of the Stock to be purchased on such Delivery Date, and any remaining non-defaulting U.S. Underwriter shall not be obligated to purchase more than 110% of the number of shares of the Stock which it agreed to purchase on such Delivery Date pursuant to the terms of Section 7. If the foregoing maximums are exceeded, the remaining non-defaulting U.S. Underwriters, or those other U.S. Underwriters satisfactory to the 43 Representatives who so agree, shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to purchase, in such proportion as may be agreed upon among them, all the Stock to be purchased on such Delivery Date. If the remaining U.S. Underwriters or other underwriters satisfactory to the Representatives do not elect to purchase the shares which the defaulting U.S. Underwriter or U.S. Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such Delivery Date, this Agreement (or, with respect to the Second Delivery Date, the obligation of the U.S. Underwriters to purchase, and of the Executive Selling Stockholders, the Employee Selling Stockholders and the Sponsor Selling Stockholders to sell, the Option Stock) shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting U.S. Underwriter or the Company or the Selling Stockholders, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses to the extent set forth in Sections 13 and 18. As used in this Agreement, the term "U.S. Underwriter" includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise, any party not listed in Schedules 1 and 2 hereto who, pursuant to this Section 16, purchases Firm Stock which a defaulting U.S. Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase. Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting U.S. Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Company and the Selling Stockholders for damages caused by its default. If other U.S. Underwriters are obligated or agree to purchase the Stock of a defaulting or withdrawing U.S. Underwriter, either the Representatives or the Company may postpone the Delivery Date for up to seven full business days in order to effect any changes that, in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the U.S. Underwriters, may be necessary in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement. 17. Termination. The obligations of the U.S. Underwriters hereunder may be terminated by the Representatives by notice given to and received by the Company and the Selling Stockholders prior to delivery of and payment for Firm Stock if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Sections 14(q), 14(r) or 14(s) shall have occurred or if the U.S. Underwriters shall decline to purchase the Stock for any reason permitted under this Agreement. 18. Reimbursement of U.S. Underwriters' Expenses. If the Company or any of the Selling Stockholders shall fail to tender the Stock for delivery to the U.S. Underwriters by reason of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Company or any Selling Stockholder to perform any agreement on its part to be performed, or because any other condition of the U.S. Underwriters' obligations hereunder required to be fulfilled by the Company or the Selling Stockholders is not fulfilled, the Company or any such defaulting Selling Stockholder(s), as the case may be, will severally and not jointly, in proportion to the shares of Stock to be sold by the Company or such defaulting Selling Stockholder(s) hereunder, reimburse the U.S. Underwriters for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the U.S. Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Stock, and upon demand the Company or such defaulting Selling Stockholder(s), as the case may be, shall pay the full amount thereof to the Representatives. Neither the Company nor any Selling Stockholder shall have the liability to any of the U.S. Underwriters for damages on account of loss of anticipated profits from the proposed sale by them of the Stock. 44 19.

Definition of the Terms "Business Day" and "Subsidiary".
