(ii) by Buyer or Seller pursuant to Section  5.1(c) if, at the time of such termination, Seller would have been entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section  5.1(d) (as a result of an uncured breach of Section  3.7 );

then Buyer shall pay to Seller, by wire transfer in immediately available funds, a fee of twenty million dollars ($20,000,000.00) (the “ Financing Failure Termination Fee ”) within five (5) business days after the date of such termination. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the agreement contained in this Section  5.2(b) is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby, that without this agreement the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement, and that any amount payable pursuant to this Section  5.2(b) does not constitute a penalty but shall constitute liquidated damages to compensate Seller. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if this Agreement is validly terminated by Seller and the Financing Failure Termination Fee is payable pursuant to this Section  5.2(b) , then Seller’s right to receipt of payment of the Financing Failure Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy against Buyer, its Affiliates, Representatives, employees, directors, shareholders, agents, Financing Sources and any of their Affiliates’ Representatives, employees, directors, shareholders or agents, in each case, for any Losses or damages suffered by Seller or any of its Affiliates as a result of the failure of the Closing to occur or any breach of or failure to perform under this Agreement (including any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Buyer set forth in this Agreement), or otherwise in connection with the Transaction or the other transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit Seller from pursuing an action or proceeding against Buyer (in addition to Seller receiving the Financing Failure Termination Fee) to recover additional damages if and only if (x) Buyer is, or has been, in Willful Breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (y) the Financing (or Alternative Financing) has not been funded and will not be funded at the Closing as a result of the Buyer’s Willful Breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and (z) a court of competent jurisdiction enters a final, non-appealable Order finding that Buyer has Willfully Breached its obligations under this Agreement and such Willful Breach resulted in the Financing not being available at the Closing (the occurrence of (x), (y) and (z), a “ Buyer Financing Willful Breach ”). In the event of a Buyer Financing Willful Breach, in addition to Seller’s right to the Financing Failure Termination Fee, if payable pursuant to this Section  5.2(b) , Buyer shall pay to Seller any and all damages awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction in excess of the Financing Failure Termination Fee. The Parties acknowledge and agree that in no event shall Buyer be required to pay the Financing Failure Termination Fee on more than one (1) occasion.

(c) If the Buyer fails to timely pay the Financing Failure Termination Fee due pursuant to Section  5.2(b) , and, in order to obtain such payment, Seller commences a suit that results in a final and non-appealable judgment against Buyer for the amount set forth in Section  5.2(b) , Buyer shall pay, to Seller, Seller’s and its Affiliates’ reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of any expert or consultant engaged by Seller or its

6.1 Survival .

(a) None of the representations or warranties, in this Agreement shall survive the Closing; provided, that the foregoing shall not affect or otherwise limit any claim made or available under any representation and warranty policy obtained by Buyer or its Subsidiaries in connection herewith. For clarity, on and from the Closing (other than in the event of fraud) Buyer’s sole and exclusive recourse for satisfaction of all claims by Buyer and its Affiliates in connection with, resulting from or in any way related to Seller’s representations or warranties herein shall be a claim by Buyer against a third party insurance provider under the representation and warranty insurance policy obtained by Buyer in connection with this Agreement and the Transaction, and all such claims shall be non-recourse to Seller, Seller’s Affiliates and each of their Representatives. Buyer agrees that, on and from the Closing, (other than in the event of fraud) it is not entitled to make, and will not make, and waives any right it may have to make, any claim by Buyer and its Affiliates in connection with, resulting from or in any way related to Seller’s representations or warranties herein against Seller, Seller’s Affiliates and each of their Representatives. Seller agrees that, on and from the Closing, (other than in the event of fraud) it is not entitled to make, and will not make, and waives any right it may have to make, any claim by Seller and its Affiliates in connection with, resulting from or in any way related to Buyer’s representations or warranties herein against Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates and each of their Representatives. Each Party hereby waives any provision of any Law to the extent that it would limit, restrict, conflict with, or otherwise interfere with the application of, this Section  6.1(a) .

(b) The covenants and obligations that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing shall survive for the period provided in such covenants and obligations, or until fully performed and the covenants and obligations that by their terms apply or are to be performed in their entirety on or prior to the Closing shall terminate at the Closing to the extent performed.

(c) No Party, after the consummation of the Transaction, shall be entitled to rescind the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by virtue of any failure of any Party’s representations and warranties herein to have been true or any failure by any party to perform its obligations hereunder.

6.2 Modification or Amendment . Subject to the provisions of applicable Law, at any time prior to the Closing, the Parties may modify or amend this Agreement, solely by a written agreement executed and delivered by duly authorized officers of each of the respective Parties; provided , however, that any amendment of Sections 6.2 , 6.5 , 6.8 and 6.16(a) (or any

-67-

other provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment to such provision would modify the substance of such foregoing Sections), in each case to the extent such amendment would adversely affect the rights of a Financing Source under such Section, shall also be approved by such Financing Source (or by the party to the Debt Commitment Letter (or any Debt Document resulting therefrom) affiliated with such Financing Source).

6.3 Waiver of Conditions . The conditions to each of the respective Parties’ obligations to consummate the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are for the sole benefit of such Party and may be waived by such Party in whole or in part to the extent permitted by applicable Law; provided , however, that any such waiver shall only be effective if made in writing. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights hereunder or under applicable Law shall not constitute a waiver of such rights and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no single or partial exercise by any Party of any of its rights hereunder precludes any other or further exercise of such rights or any other rights hereunder or under applicable Law.

6.4 Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile or by attachment to electronic mail in portable document form (PDF)), each such counterpart being deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts shall together constitute the same agreement.

(b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES (AND SELLER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES ON BEHALF OF THE SELLER RELATED PARTIES) THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST A FINANCING SOURCE AND/OR ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTROLLING PERSONS, ADVISORS, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS AND REPRESENTATIVES). EACH PARTY HEREBY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES (AND SELLER CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES ON BEHALF OF THE SELLER RELATED PARTIES) THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION  6.5 .

-69-

(c) The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, may not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Subject to the following two sentences, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without any requirement for the posting of security, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is acknowledged and agreed that Seller shall only be entitled to specific performance of Buyer’s obligations to consummate the Transaction at the Closing and pay the Purchase Price to Seller at the Closing in the event that each of the following conditions has been satisfied: (i) the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by deliveries at the Closing itself, but that are capable of being satisfied if the Closing were to occur) shall have been satisfied, (ii) Buyer has failed to consummate the Closing in breach of Section  1.3 , (iii) Seller has irrevocably confirmed by written notice to Buyer that Seller is ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing if specific performance is granted and the Financing is funded, and (iv) the Financing (or Alternative Financing) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) nothing in the foregoing sentence will be deemed to affect or modify the availability of specific performance of any of Buyer’s covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, other than Buyer’s obligation to consummate the Transaction at the Closing and pay the Purchase Price to Seller at the Closing and (2) in no event shall Seller be entitled to receive both (A) a grant of specific performance requiring Buyer to consummate the Transaction and pay the Purchase Price to Seller at the Closing and (B) payment of the Financing Failure Termination Fee and/or any monetary damages for Willful Breach pursuant to Section  5.2 ; provided , that if Seller seeks a grant of specific performance but such remedy is not awarded by the court, this will not prejudice Seller’s right to subsequently seek the Financing Failure Termination Fee (if such fee was payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) and/or monetary damages for Willful Breach pursuant to Section  5.2 . Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to extent in compliance with this Section  6.5 on the basis that (x) any Party has an adequate remedy at law or (y) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the rights to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy contemplated herein are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without such right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement.

EXHIBIT I

STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT

This Stockholders Agreement (this “ Agreement ”), dated as of [•], 2017, is entered into between Golden Entertainment, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the “ Company ”), and W2007/ACEP Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “ Stockholder ”). The Stockholder and the Company are each a “ Party ” and collectively the “ Parties ”.

WHEREAS, the Stockholder and an affiliate of stockholder (“ Voteco ”) owned all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of American Casino & Entertainment Properties, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ ACEP ”);

WHEREAS, the Stockholder, Voteco and the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 10, 2017 (the “ MIPA ”), pursuant to which (and subject to the terms and subject to the conditions thereof), the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of ACEP; and

WHEREAS this Agreement was an integral part of the Stockholder’s and the Company’s willingness to enter into the MIPA.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Board Observer .

(a) Subject to the Stockholder’s and each WH Observer’s execution and delivery of a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Stockholder, effective as of the day following the Closing until such time as the Stockholder Total Share Ownership (as defined below) is less than five percent (5%) of the total number of shares of Buyer Common Stock (as defined in the MIPA) issued and outstanding (excluding, for the purposes of such calculation, those shares of Buyer Common Stock held by the Company or its subsidiaries) (the “ Threshold Amount ”), the Board of Directors of the Company (the “ Board ”) shall permit such Person as the Stockholder may designate from time to time in writing to the Company (the “ WH Observer ”) to attend all meetings of the Board (including telephonic meetings) and any committee thereof in a nonvoting observer capacity. In connection therewith, the Board or the Company shall give the WH Observer copies of all notices, minutes, consents, and other materials that it provides to members of the Board or any committee thereof substantially concurrently therewith.

(b) Effective Registration .

(c) Selection of Underwriters . With respect to any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration in the form of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriter for the offering shall be an investment banking firm of national standing to be selected by mutual agreement of Stockholder and the Company (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Upon the written request of Stockholder, received by the Company no later than 10 days after receipt by the Stockholder of the notice sent by the Company, to register and offer, on the same terms and conditions as the securities otherwise being sold pursuant to such registration statement or prospectus supplement, any of Stockholder’s Registrable Securities of the same class as those being offered (which request shall state the intended method of disposition thereof if the securities otherwise being sold are being sold by more than one method of disposition), the Company will cause such Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included in the registration statement or prospectus supplement proposed to be filed by the Company on the same terms and

6

conditions as the securities otherwise being sold pursuant to such registration statement or prospectus supplement (a “ Piggyback Registration ”); provided , however , that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may at any time, in its sole discretion, without the consent of Stockholder, delay or abandon the proposed offering in which a Stockholder had requested to participate pursuant to this Section 4(a) or cease the filing (or obtaining or maintaining the effectiveness) of or withdraw the related registration statement or prospectus supplement or other governmental approvals, registrations or qualifications. In such event, the Company shall so notify the Stockholder and the Company shall incur no liability for its failure to complete any such offering other than its obligation to pay Registration Expenses in connection therewith.

(b) Priority on Primary Registrations . If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriter advises the Company that in its reasonable opinion the number of equity securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without having a material adverse effect on the price or success of the offering, then the Company shall include in such registration statement or prospectus supplement the maximum number of shares that such underwriter advises can be so sold without having such adverse effect, allocated (i) first, to the equity securities the Company proposes to sell and to Stockholder, pro rata among the Company and Stockholder on the basis of the percentage of the shares requested to be registered by them, or on such basis as the Company and Stockholder may agree, (ii) second, to any other shareholder with piggyback registration rights entitling it to include shares of Company common stock in such registration, pro rata among such holders on the basis of the percentage of the shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as such holders may agree among themselves and the Company, and (iii) third, among other security holders of the Company, pro rata among such holder(s) on the basis of the percentage of the then outstanding shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as such holder(s) may agree among themselves and the Company.

(c) Priority on Secondary Registrations . If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as a secondary underwritten registration on behalf of any holders of the Company’s securities other than Stockholder, and the managing underwriter advises the Company that in its reasonable opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without having a material adverse effect on the price or success of the offering, then the Company shall include in such registration statement or prospectus supplement the maximum number of shares that such underwriter advises can be so sold without having such adverse effect, allocated (i) first, to the securities requested to be included therein by the holder(s) requesting such registration, to the extent such holder(s) have priority registration rights in effect on the date hereof, and to the Stockholder, pro rata among such holders on the basis of the percentage of the shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as such holders may agree among themselves and the Company, (ii) second, to any other shareholder with piggyback registration rights entitling it to include shares of Company common stock in such registration, pro rata among such holders on the basis of the percentage of the shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as such holders may agree among themselves and the Company, and (iii) third, among the Company and other security holders of the Company, pro rata among such holder(s) and the Company on the basis of the percentage of the shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as such holder(s) may agree among themselves and the Company.

7

(d) Withdrawal . Stockholder shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of any specified number of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement or prospectus supplement pursuant to this Section 4 by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw at least five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of such registration statement. In the event of any such withdrawal, the Company shall not include such Registrable Securities in the applicable registration and such Registrable Securities shall continue to be Registrable Securities hereunder. No such withdrawal shall affect the obligations of the Company with respect to the Registrable Securities not so withdrawn.

(e) Underwritten Offerings . In connection with the exercise of any registration rights granted to the Stockholder pursuant to this Section 4, if the offering is to be effected by means of an underwritten offering, the Company may condition participation in such offering on Stockholder entering into an underwriting agreement in customary form and acting in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof; provided that the Company shall cooperate reasonably with Stockholder in the event Stockholder is required by applicable law to engage an underwriter other than the managing underwriter engaged by the Company or the requesting holder in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 4.

Section 5. Standstill and Suspension Periods .

(a) Company Standstill Period .

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be entitled to more than three Suspension Periods, which Suspension Periods shall have durations of not more than 30 days each (which may at the Company’s determination run consecutively for a given Material Disclosure Event), during any consecutive 12 month period; provided , however , that if the Company deems in good faith that it is necessary to file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement in order to comply with Section 2 hereof, then such period of time from the date of filing of such post-effective amendment until the date on which such Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC or otherwise becomes effective shall not be treated as a Suspension Period and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective or otherwise become effective as promptly as possible. Stockholder agrees that, upon receipt of notice from the Company of the occurrence of a Material Disclosure Event (a “ Suspension Notice ”), Stockholder will forthwith discontinue any disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement or any public sale or distribution, including pursuant to Rule 144, until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Suspension Period and (ii) Stockholder’s receipt of a notice from the Company to the effect that such suspension has terminated. Any Suspension Notice shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President or any Vice President of the Company confirming the existence of the Material Disclosure Event. If so directed by the Company, Stockholder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in Stockholder’s possession, of the most recent prospectus(es) covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such Suspension Notice. The Company covenants and agrees that it will not deliver a Suspension Notice with respect to a Suspension Period unless the Company’s employees, officers and directors are also prohibited by the Company for the duration of such Suspension Period from effecting any public sales of shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by them. In the event of a Suspension Notice, the Company shall, promptly after such time as the related Material Disclosure Event no longer exists, provide notice to the Stockholder that the Suspension Period has ended, and take any and all actions necessary or desirable to give effect to Stockholder’s rights under this Agreement that may have been affected by such notice, including Stockholder’s Demand Registration rights and rights with respect to a Shelf Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a valid postponement or suspension of the filing of a registration statement shall not diminish the obligation of the Company to continue preparations for the filing of such registration statement during the Suspension Period.

(c) Stockholder Standstill Period . To the extent requested by the managing underwriter(s) for the applicable offering, Stockholder agrees to enter into a customary lock-up agreement with the managing underwriter for any underwritten offering of the Company’s equity securities for its own account, containing terms reasonably acceptable to such managing underwriter and Stockholder, covering the period commencing five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of any registration statement or amendment to registration statement pertaining to such underwritten offering or, if applicable, five (5) Business Days prior to the date of the final prospectus supplement to a registration statement pertaining to such underwritten offering,

9

and ending on the 90th day after such effective date or final prospectus supplement date (or such shorter period as shall have been agreed to by the Company or the Company’s executive officers and directors in their respective lock-up agreements); provided , however , that the obligations of Stockholder under this Section 5(c) shall apply only if: (i) Stockholder owns five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding Company common stock, (ii) Stockholder will be afforded the right (whether or not exercised by Stockholder) to include Registrable Securities in such underwritten offering in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof; (iii) each of the Company’s executive officers and directors enter into lock-up agreements with such managing underwriter, which agreements shall not contain terms more favorable to such executive officers or directors than those contained in the lock-up agreement entered into by Stockholder; and (iv) the aggregate restriction periods in Stockholder’s lock-up agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 5(c) shall not exceed an aggregate of 180 days during any 365-day period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, none of the provisions or restrictions set forth in this Section 5(c) shall in any way limit Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or any of its Affiliates (other than the Stockholder) from engaging in any brokerage, investment advisory, financial advisory, anti-raid advisory, principaling, merger advisory, financing, asset management, trading, market making, arbitrage, investment activity and other similar activities conducted in the ordinary course of their business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the restrictions contained in this Agreement shall not apply to any shares of the Company’s common stock or any other securities acquired by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or any of its Affiliates other than the Registrable Securities.

Sartini and Delise F. Sartini Family Trust. If the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement provide to any holder of any securities of the Company rights with respect to the registration of such securities under the Securities Act, such rights shall not be in conflict with, adversely affect, or be more favorable than any of the rights provided in this Agreement to the Stockholder.

Section 7. Indemnification .

(a) Indemnification by the Company . In the event of any registration of Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Stockholder, its members, managers, partners, officers, directors, employees, advisors, direct or indirect equityholders, stockholders, representatives and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls Stockholder within the meaning of the Securities Act or

15

the Exchange Act, against any losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any related claim or proceeding) (collectively, “ Losses ”) to which Stockholder or any such indemnitees may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities Laws, any rule or regulation under the Securities Act, or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or related actions or proceedings) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered and sold under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a 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; provided , however , that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information about Stockholder which is furnished to the Company by or on behalf of Stockholder specifically for use in such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement; and provided , further , that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Loss arises out of Stockholder’s failure to deliver a copy of the prospectus (as amended or supplemented) after the Company has furnished Stockholder with a sufficient number of copies in advance with a reasonable opportunity to deliver the same in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities, but only if such statement or omission was corrected in such prospectus (as amended or supplemented).

(b) Indemnification by Stockholder . In the event of any registration of Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, Stockholder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 7(a)) the Company, its officers, directors, employees, advisors, representatives and agents, and each other Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any Losses to which the Company or any such indemnitees may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or related actions or proceedings) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered and sold under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a 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, in each case to the extent such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information about Stockholder furnished to the Company by or on behalf of Stockholder specifically for use in such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement; provided , however , that Stockholder shall not be liable for any amounts in excess of the net proceeds (after deducting Selling Expenses) received by Stockholder from sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement; and provided , further , that Stockholder shall not be liable for any Loss that arises out of Company’s failure to update, supplement or amend the prospectus after Stockholder has provided the Company with information correcting such statement or omission with a reasonable opportunity to amend or correct such prospectus.

16

(c) Notices of Claims, etc. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided , however , that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties exists with respect to such claim, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of such claim upon written notice to the indemnified party within 30 days of its receipt of notice of the claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided , however , that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (i) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses or (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person and to continue diligently pursuing such defense. If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party as permitted hereunder, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions hereof, such indemnifying party shall not settle or otherwise compromise the applicable claim unless (A) such settlement or compromise contains a full and unconditional release of the indemnified party or (B) the indemnified party otherwise consents in writing (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one counsel (plus local counsel to the extent reasonably necessary to defend against such claim) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim.

The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

(d) Contribution . If, for any reason, the foregoing indemnity is unavailable, or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of the Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, and the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No indemnified party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)

17

shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party 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 indemnifying party or by the indemnified party, and by such party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, Stockholder shall not be required to contribute an amount greater than the net proceeds (after deducting Selling Expenses) received by Stockholder from sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement to which the claims relate.

Section 8. Covenants Relating To Rule 144 . With a view to making available to Stockholder the benefits of Rule 144 and any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit Stockholder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company covenants that for so long as it is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it shall use its reasonable efforts to file in a timely manner all reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act and to comply with the requirements of Rule 144(c), as it may be amended from time to time (or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC), regarding the availability of current public information to the extent required to enable Stockholder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to the resale provisions of Rule 144 (or any similar rule or regulation). Upon the request of the Stockholder, the Company will promptly deliver to Stockholder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and, upon Stockholder’s compliance with the applicable provisions of Rule 144 and its delivery of such documents and certificates as the Company’s transfer agent may reasonably request in connection therewith, will take such reasonable action as may be required (including using its reasonable efforts to cause legal counsel to issue an appropriate opinion) to cause its transfer agent to effectuate any transfer of Registrable Securities properly requested by Stockholder, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Rule 144.

Section 9. Miscellaneous .

(a) Termination; Survival . The rights of Stockholder under this Agreement shall terminate on the date that all of the Registrable Securities held by Stockholder cease to be Registrable Securities.

(b) Governing Law .
