RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and other factors described below, along with all of the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including our financial statements and the related notes, before you decide whether to buy shares of our common stock. Any of the following risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition operating results, cash flows and prospects and could negatively impact the value of your investment.

Risks Related To Our Business and Our Industry

Because the support revenue that we have traditionally relied upon has been steadily declining, it is important that new sources of revenue continue to be developed.

Our revenue from the support services we offer in connection with our legacy software products has been decreasing over the course of the past few years. This decline can be attributed to the fact that many of our support clients are not renewing their support agreements with us, in many cases because they are no longer using our legacy software. Even if they are continuing to use our legacy software, our support clients may choose not to renew their support agreements if their legacy software products no longer require support or they use third party support. In addition, some of the clients who use our support services have reduced the level of support that we provide them, which in turn reduces our support revenue. This downward trend in our support revenue makes us dependent upon our other sources of revenue.

One customer currently provides a significant percentage of our total revenue.

Brit Insurance Holdings PLC, referred to in this prospectus as Brit, owned approximately 29% of our common stock at July 9, 2007. Revenues from Brit represented approximately 11% ($3,117,000) of our total revenue in 2006 and 16% ($3,762,000) of our total revenue in 2005. If revenues from this customer were to discontinue, our operating results could be adversely affected.

Adverse insurance industry economics could adversely affect our revenues.

We are dependent on the insurance industry, which may be adversely affected by economic, environmental and world political conditions.

Our operating results may fluctuate dramatically.

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future due to a variety of factors that could affect our revenues or our expenses in any particular quarter. You should not rely on our results of operations during any particular quarter as an indication of our results for a full year or any other quarter. Factors that may affect our quarterly results may include the loss of a significant insurance agent, carrier or broker relationship, or the merger of any of our participating insurance carriers with one another.

Our operating expenses are based in part on our expectations of our future revenues and are relatively fixed in the short term. We may be unable to adjust spending quickly enough to offset any unexpected revenue shortfall.

Our future capital needs could increase and we may not be able to secure additional financing when we need it.

We may need to raise additional funds in the future in order to fund more aggressive brand promotion or more rapid expansion, to develop new or enhanced services, to respond to competitive pressures or to make acquisitions. Any required additional financing may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to meet our business or

1

strategic objectives or compete effectively. If additional funds are raised by our issuing equity securities, stockholders may experience dilution of their ownership interests, and the newly issued securities may have rights superior to those of our common stock. If additional funds are raised by our issuing debt, we may be subject to limitations on our activities.

Our recent acquisitions of Infinity and Finetre as well as any future acquisitions that we undertake could be difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and harm our operating results.

The acquisitions of Infinity and Finetre and any other future acquisitions, may cause us to be subject to a variety of risks, including risks associated with an ability to integrate acquired assets or operations into our existing operations, higher costs or unexpected difficulties or problems with acquired assets or entities, outdated or incompatible technologies, labor difficulties or an inability to realize anticipated synergies and efficiencies, whether within anticipated timeframes or at all, one or more of which risks, if realized, could have an adverse impact on our operations.

We may not be able to continue to develop new products to effectively adjust for rapid technological changes.

To be successful, we must adapt to rapidly changing technological and market needs by continually enhancing and introducing new products and services to address our customers’ changing demands.

The marketplaces in which we operate are characterized by:

·rapidly changing technology;

·evolving industry standards;

·frequent new product and service introductions;

·shifting distribution channels; and

·changing customer demands.

Our future success will depend on our ability to adapt to this rapidly evolving marketplace. We could incur substantial costs if we need to modify our services or infrastructure in order to adapt to changes affecting our market, and we may be unable to adapt to these changes.

The markets for our products are highly competitive and are likely to become more competitive, and our competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technology and changes in customer requirements.

We operate in highly competitive markets. In particular, the online insurance distribution market, like the broader electronic commerce market, is rapidly evolving and highly competitive. Our software business also experiences some competition from certain large hardware suppliers that sell systems and systems’ components to independent agencies and from small, independent or freelance developers and suppliers of software, who sometimes work in concert with hardware vendors to supply systems to independent agencies. Our Internet business may also face indirect competition from insurance carriers that have subsidiaries which perform in-house agency and brokerage functions.

Some of our current competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, greater brand recognition and significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we do. In addition, we believe we will face increasing competition as the online financial services industry develops and evolves. Our current and future competitors may be able to:

·undertake more extensive marketing campaigns for their brands and services;

2

·devote more resources to website and systems development;

·adopt more aggressive pricing policies; and

·make more attractive offers to potential employees, online companies and third-party service providers.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, our reputation and competitiveness in the marketplace may be materially damaged.

We regard our intellectual property in general and our software in particular as critical to our success. It may be possible for third parties to copy aspects of our products or, without authorization, to obtain and use information that we regard as trade secrets. Existing copyright law affords only limited practical protection, and our software is generally unpatented.

If we infringe on the proprietary rights of others, we may be at a competitive disadvantage, and any related litigation could be time consuming and costly.

Third parties may claim that we have violated their intellectual property rights. Any of these claims, with or without merit, could subject us to costly litigation and divert the attention of key personnel. To the extent that we violate a patent or other intellectual property right of a third party, we may be prevented from operating our business as planned, and we may be required to pay damages, to obtain a license, if available, to use the right or to use a non-infringing method, if possible, to accomplish our objectives.

We depend on the continued services of our senior management and our ability to attract and retain other key personnel.

Our future success is substantially dependent on the continued services and continuing contributions of our senior management and other key personnel, particularly Robin Raina, our President and Chief Executive Officer. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers or other key employees could harm our business. We have no long-term employment agreements with any of our key personnel, nor do we maintain key man life insurance policies on any of our key employees.

Our future success depends on our continuing to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled employees. If we are not able to attract and retain new personnel, our business will be harmed. Competition for personnel in our industry is intense. We may be unable to retain our key employees or attract, assimilate or retain other highly qualified employees in the future.

Our international operations are subject to a number of risks that could affect our income and growth.

We market our software and related services internationally and plan to expand our Internet services to locations outside of the United States. Our international operations are subject to a number of inherent risks, including:

·the impact of recessions in foreign economies on the level of consumers’ insurance shopping and purchasing behavior;

·greater difficulty in collecting accounts receivable;

·difficulties and costs of staffing and managing foreign operations;

·reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries;

·seasonal reductions in business activity during the summer months in Europe and other parts of the world;

3

·burdensome regulatory requirements, other trade barriers and differing business practices;

·fluctuations in exchange rates;

·potentially adverse tax consequences; and

·political and economic instability.

Furthermore, our entry into additional international markets requires significant management attention and financial resources, which could lessen our ability to manage our existing business effectively.

Laws and regulations that govern the insurance industry could expose us or the agents, brokers and carriers who participate in our online marketplace to legal penalties.

We perform functions for licensed insurance agents, brokers and carriers and are, therefore, required to comply with a complex set of rules and regulations that often vary from state to state. These rules and regulations can be difficult to comply with and are ambiguous and open to interpretation. If we fail to properly interpret and/or comply with these rules and regulations, we, the insurance agents, brokers or carriers doing business with us, our officers, or agents with whom we contract could be subject to various sanctions, including censure, fines, cease-and-desist orders, loss of license or other penalties. This risk, as well as other laws and regulations affecting our business and changes in the regulatory climate or the enforcement or interpretation of existing law, could expose us to additional costs, including indemnification of participating insurance agents, brokers or carriers for their costs, and could require changes to our business or otherwise harm our business. Furthermore, because the application of online commerce to the consumer insurance market is relatively new, the impact of current or future regulations on our business is difficult to anticipate. To the extent that there are changes in the rules and regulations regarding the manner in which insurance is sold, our business could be adversely affected.

Governmental regulation of the telemarketing industry may increase our costs and restrict the operation and growth of our call center business.

The telemarketing industry and, therefore, our call center business are subject to an increasing amount of governmental regulation. In particular, telemarketers are now barred from contacting persons who have registered their phone numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry maintained by the Federal Trade Commission. We could be subject to a variety of enforcement or private actions for our failure or the failure of our clients to comply with these regulations. Furthermore, our costs may increase as a result of having to comply with these regulations, and these regulations may limit our call center activities or reduce the demand for our call center services.

Risks Related to Our Conduct of Business on The Internet

Any disruption of our Internet connections could affect the success of our Internet based products.

Any system failure, including network, software or hardware failure, that causes an interruption in our network or a decrease in responsiveness of our website could result in reduced user traffic and reduced revenue. Continued growth in Internet usage could cause a decrease in the quality of Internet connection service. Websites have experienced service interruptions as a result of outages and other delays occurring throughout the Internet network infrastructure. In addition, there have been several incidents in which individuals have intentionally caused service disruptions of major e-commerce websites. If these outages, delays or service disruptions frequently occur in the future, usage of our Internet based services could grow more slowly than anticipated or decline, and we may lose revenues and customers.

If the Internet data center operations that host any of our websites were to experience a system failure, the performance of our website would be harmed. These systems are also vulnerable to damage

4

from fire, floods, earthquakes, acts of terrorism, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins and similar events. Our property and business interruption insurance coverage may not be adequate to compensate us for all losses that may occur. In addition, our users depend on Internet service providers, online service providers and other website operators for access to our website. Each of these providers has experienced significant outages in the past, and could experience outages, delays and other difficulties due to system failures unrelated to our systems.

Concerns regarding security of transactions or the transmission of confidential information over the Internet or security problems we experience may prevent us from expanding our business or subject us to legal exposure.

If we do not offer sufficient security features in our online product and service offerings, our products and services may not gain market acceptance, and we could be exposed to legal liability. Despite the measures that we may take, our infrastructure will be potentially vulnerable to physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses or similar problems. If a person circumvents our security measures, that person could misappropriate proprietary information or disrupt or damage our operations. Security breaches that result in access to confidential information could damage our reputation and subject us to a risk of loss or liability. We may be required to make significant expenditures to protect against or remedy security breaches. Additionally, if we are unable to adequately address our customers’ concerns about security, we may have difficulty selling our goods and services.

Uncertainty in the marketplace regarding the use of Internet users’ personal information, or proposed legislation limiting such use, could reduce demand for our services and result in increased expenses.

Concern among consumers and legislators regarding the use of personal information gathered from Internet users could create uncertainty in the marketplace. This could reduce demand for our services, increase the cost of doing business as a result of litigation costs or increased service delivery costs, or otherwise harm our business. Legislation has been proposed that would limit the users of personally identifiable information of Internet users gathered online or require online services to establish privacy policies. Many state insurance codes limit the collection and use of personal information by insurance agencies, brokers and carriers or insurance service organizations. Moreover, the Federal Trade Commission has settled a proceeding against one online service that agreed in the settlement to limit the manner in which personal information could be collected from users and provided to third parties.

Future government regulation of the Internet could place financial burdens on our businesses.

Because of the Internet’s popularity and increasing use, new laws and regulations directed specifically at e-commerce may be adopted. These laws and regulations may cover issues such as the collection and use of data from website visitors, including the placing of small information files, or “cookies,” on a user’s hard drive to gather information, and related privacy issues; pricing; taxation; telecommunications over the Internet; content; copyrights; distribution; domain name piracy; and quality of products and services. The enactment of any additional laws or regulations, including international laws and regulations, could impede the growth of our revenue from our Internet operations and place additional financial burdens on our business.

Risks Related To Our Common Stock

The price of our common stock may be extremely volatile.

In some future periods, our results of operations may be below the expectations of public market investors, which could negatively affect the market price of our common stock. Furthermore, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations in recent years. We believe that,

5

in the future, the market price of our common stock could fluctuate widely due to variations in our performance and operating results or because of any of the following factors which are, in large part, beyond our control:

·announcements of new services, products, technological innovations, acquisitions or strategic relationships by us or our competitors;

·trends or conditions in the insurance, software, business process outsourcing and Internet markets;

·changes in market valuations of our competitors; and

·general political, economic and market conditions.

In addition, the market prices of securities of technology companies, including our own, have been volatile and have experienced fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to operating performance. As a result, you may not be able to sell shares of our common stock at or above the price at which you purchase them. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against that company. If any securities litigation is initiated against us, we could incur substantial costs and our management’s attention and resources could be diverted from our business.

The significant concentration of ownership of our common stock will limit your ability to influence corporate actions.

The concentration of ownership of our common stock may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of our company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company, and may affect the market price of our common stock. At July 9, 2007, Brit beneficially owned approximately 29% of our outstanding common stock and, together with our executive officers and directors, beneficially owned approximately 42% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, those stockholders, if they act together, are able to exercise significant influence on matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of all directors and approval of significant corporate transactions and amendments to our certificate of incorporation. These stockholders may use their ownership position to approve or take actions that are adverse to your interests or prevent the taking of actions that are consistent with your interests.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains and incorporates by reference certain “forward-looking statements” that reflect our current beliefs and expectations about our future results, performance, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources, prospects and opportunities.

These risks, uncertainties and other factors include the risk factors discussed above, in any prospectus supplement and in any of the documents incorporated by reference. You should not place any undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as expressly required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The shares covered by this prospectus may be offered, sold, or distributed from time to time by the selling stockholders named in this prospectus. The selling stockholders may sell their shares at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at negotiated prices, or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The selling stockholders reserve the right to accept or reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of shares, whether the purchase is to be made directly or through agents. We are not aware that any selling stockholder has entered into any arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of its shares of our common stock.

The selling stockholders may offer their shares at various times in one or more of the following transactions:

·in ordinary brokers’ transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

·in transactions involving cross or block trades or otherwise on any national securities exchange or quotation system, such as the NASDAQ Global Market, on which our common stock may be listed or quoted;

·in an over-the-counter distribution in accordance with the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market;

·in transactions in which brokers, dealers, or underwriters purchase the shares as principals and resell the shares for their own accounts pursuant to this prospectus;

·in transactions “at the market” to or through market makers in our common stock;

·in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales of the shares to purchasers or sales of the shares effected through agents;

·through transactions in options, swaps, or other derivatives that may or may not be listed on an exchange;

·in privately negotiated transactions;

·in transactions to cover short sales; or

·in a combination of any of the foregoing transactions.

In addition, the selling stockholders also may sell their shares in private transactions or in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act rather than under this prospectus.

From time to time, the selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares they own. If the selling stockholders default in performance of the secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares from time to time. The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate shares in other circumstances. If the selling stockholders donate or otherwise transfer their shares, the number of shares they beneficially own will decrease as and when they take these actions. The plan of distribution for the shares offered and sold under this prospectus will otherwise remain unchanged, except that the transferees, donees, or other successors in interest will be selling stockholders for purposes of this prospectus.

The selling stockholders may use brokers, dealers, underwriters, or agents to sell their shares. The persons acting as agents may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions. This compensation may be paid by the selling stockholders or the purchasers of the shares for whom such persons may act as agent, or to whom they may sell as principal, or both. In addition, the broker-dealers’ or their affiliates’ commissions, discounts, or concessions may qualify as underwriters’ compensation under the Securities Act. Neither we, nor the selling stockholders, can presently estimate the amount of that

9

compensation. We will make copies of this prospectus and any supplements or amendments hereto available to the selling stockholders or any of its agents or broker-dealers for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

The selling stockholders and any other person participating in a distribution of the shares covered by this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and referred to in this prospectus as the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by the selling stockholders and any other such person. Furthermore, under Regulation M, any person engaged in the distribution of the shares may not simultaneously engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular shares being distributed for certain periods prior to the commencement of, or during, that distribution. All of the above may affect the marketability of the shares and the availability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares.

Under our agreement with the selling stockholders, we are required to bear the expenses relating to the registration of this offering, other than fees and expenses of counsel for the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders will bear any underwriting discounts or commissions, brokerage fees or stock transfer taxes. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain liabilities arising in connection with this offering, including liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. The selling stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer, or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the shares of common stock against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of our capital stock is summarized from, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Certificate of Incorporation, which has been publicly filed with the SEC and is reproduced as an Exhibit to this registration statement. This summary is not intended to give full effect to provisions of statutory common law. We urge you to review the following documents because they, and not this summary, define your rights as a holder of shares of common stock or preferred stock:

·The Delaware General Corporation Law, as it may be amended from time to time;

·Our certificate of incorporation, as it has been amended to date and as it may be amended or restated from time to time, and

·Our by-laws, as they may be amended or restated from time to time.

General

We have 10,000,000 shares of authorized common stock and 500,000 shares of authorized preferred stock. As of July 9, 2007, there were 3,260,924 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

Common Stock

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by our stockholders, and do not have cumulative voting rights. Accordingly, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in the election of directors can elect all of the directors standing for election. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to shares of preferred stock then outstanding, if any, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of funds legally available for dividends. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock then outstanding, if any. Our common stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights, nor are there any redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid. Our certificate of incorporation and by-laws provide further information about our capital stock.

Preferred Stock

We may issue preferred stock in one or more series, as described below. The following briefly summarizes the provisions of our certificate of incorporation, as amended to date, that would be important to holders of our preferred stock. The following description may not be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the terms and provisions of our certificate of incorporation, as amended to date.

Our board of directors is authorized to issue up to 500,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. Our board of directors has the discretion to determine the number of shares of preferred stock to be included in each series as well as to determine the dividend, voting, conversion, redemption, liquidation and other rights, preferences and limitations of our preferred stock. The rights of the holders of common stock will be affected by, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of holders of any preferred stock that we may designate and issue in the future. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions or other corporate actions, could have the effect of making it more difficult for others to acquire, or of discouraging others from attempting to acquire, a majority of our outstanding voting stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Mellon Investor Services, 200 West Monroe Street, Suite 1590, Chicago, Illinois 60606.

Delaware anti-takover law and charter and bylaw provisions

Provisions of Delaware law and our by-laws could make it more difficult to acquire us by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest, open market purchases, removal of incumbent directors and otherwise. These provisions, summarized below, are expected to discourage types of coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with us. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging takeover or acquisition proposals because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

We are subject to the “business combination” provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In general, those provisions prohibit a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in various “business combination” transactions with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless:

·The transaction is approved by the board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder obtained interested stockholder status;

·Upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder’s becoming an interested stockholder, the stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding those shares owned by (a) persons who are directors and also officers and (b) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

·On or subsequent to the date the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least 662¤3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

A “business combination” is defined to include mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in financial benefit to a stockholder. In general, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns or within three years, did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. The statute could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change of control attempts with respect to us and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us.

Registration Rights

Under the terms of the shares purchase agreement, we agreed to file, as soon as practicable after the closing of the private placement, a registration statement registering the shares purchased by the investors in the private placement. We also agreed to use our reasonable best efforts to cause the SEC to notify us of the SEC’s willingness to declare such registration statement effective on or before 120 days after the closing, and to cause the shares to be duly listed for trading on the Nasdaq Global Market concurrently with the effectiveness of such registration statement. In addition, we agreed to take such action as may be necessary to keep the registration statement effective until the earlier of (1) the date on which the shares may be resold without registration and without regard to any volume limitations of Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act, (2) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to the registration statement or Rule 144 of the Securities Act, or (3) the second anniversary of the closing date of the private placement.

ITEM 14.Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law grants the Registrant the power to limit the personal liability of its directors to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a fiduciary duty. Article XI of the Registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides for the limitation of personal liability of the directors of the Registrant as follows:

A director shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director; provided that this sentence shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of his duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit. This Article XI shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date when this Article XI becomes effective.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law grants to the Registrant the power to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against liability arising out of their respective capacities as directors, officers, employees or agents. Article VII of the Registrant’s Bylaws provides that the Registrant shall indemnify any person who is serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant or of another entity at the request of the Registrant against judgments, fines, settlements and other expenses incurred in such capacity if such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In the event of an action or suit by or in the right of the Registrant, no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the Registrant unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court shall deem proper.

The Registrant has a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy.

The above discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of Sections 102(b)(7) and 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws.

ITEM 15.Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

Within the past three years, we have had only one private placement. On June 1, 2007 we sold 400,000 shares of unregistered common stock to Luxor Capital Group. Please see “Selling Stockholders” section of this registration statement for additional information regarding that transaction.

The following table provides information regarding our repurchases of shares of its common stock during the past three years.

Period	Shares Purchased		Average Price Paid Per Share			Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Programs		Maximum Shares that May Yet be Purchased Under Publicly Announced Program
July 2006(1)		6,079		$	16.52		6,079		—
August 2006(1)		1,709		$	16.21		1,709		—

(1)On June 2, 2006, the Board of Directors of Ebix, Inc. announced a share repurchase plan to acquire up to $1 million of the Company’s current outstanding shares of common stock. Under the terms of the Board’s authorization, the Company retains the right to purchase up to $1 million in shares but does not have to repurchase this entire amount.

The repurchase plan’s terms have been structured to comply with the SEC’s Rule 10b-18, and is subject to market conditions and applicable legal requirements. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be suspended or terminated at any time. All purchases will be on the open market and are expected to be funded from existing cash.

For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company repurchased 8,890 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $15.00 to $18.50. Total expenditures under the repurchase plan were $149,000. The Company has not repurchased any shares of common stock since September 30, 2006.

ITEM 17.Undertakings

A.The Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i)    To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii)   To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii)  To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.

(2)   That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)   To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4)   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Exhibit 3.1

CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF
EBIX, INC.,
AS AMENDED

I

The name of the Corporation is Ebix, Inc.

II

The address of the registered office of the Corporation in the State of Delaware is 100 West Tenth Street in the City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, and the name of its registered agent at that address is The Corporation Trust Company.

III

The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

IV

The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock designated “Preferred Stock” and “Common Stock,” respectively. The total number of shares of Preferred Stock authorized to be issued is 500,000 and each of such shares shall have a par value of ten cents ($.10). The total number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued is 10,000,000 and each such share shall have a par value of ten cents ($.10).

The shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized, by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Delaware, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including but not limited to the fixing or alteration of the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), the redemption price or prices, and the liquidation preferences of any wholly unissued series or shares of Preferred Stock, or any of them; and to increase or decrease the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issue of the shares of that series, but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding. In case the number of shares of any series shall be so decreased, the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status which they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series.

Conversion of Common Stock.

Effective at 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on October 1, 2002, (a) each eight (8) shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock shall automatically, without the necessity of any further action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into and reclassified as one (1) share of Common Stock. Upon the occurrence of the conversion and reclassification effected by this Article IV (the “Conversion”), each certificate for outstanding shares of Common Stock dated prior to the effective date of the Conversion (each an “Old Certificate”) shall evidence, and be deemed to evidence, the number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares previously evidenced by such Old Certificate shall have been converted and reclassified in accordance with this Article IV, and the Conversion shall become effective in accordance with the terms hereof, whether or not any or all of the Old Certificates shall have been surrendered or new certificates evidencing the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares have been converted and reclassified have been issued in accordance with Article IV hereof.

Subsequent Reissuance of Certificates.

Following the occurrence of the Conversion, each holder of shares of Common Stock shall receive a letter of transmittal from the Corporation’s transfer agent and shall either (a) surrender each Old Certificate evidencing any such shares pursuant to the instructions in such letter of transmittal or (b) notify the Corporation that such Old Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed and execute an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with the reissuance of such lost, stolen or destroyed Old Certificate. The Corporation shall thereupon issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and delivered, to such holder a certificate or certificates, in the name shown on such Old Certificate, for the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Common Stock evidenced by the surrendered (or lost, stolen or destroyed) Old Certificate have been converted and reclassified, dated as of the date on which the Conversion became effective. The Corporation shall not be obligated to issue any certificate evidencing shares of Common Stock in connection with the Conversion except in accordance with this Article IV.

Fractional Shares.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no fraction of a share of Common Stock shall be issued by virtue of the Conversion, but in lieu thereof, each holder of shares of Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Common Stock by virtue of the Conversion (after aggregating all fractional shares of Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall receive from the Corporation the number of shares of Common Stock the holder would otherwise be entitled to by virtue of the Conversion, rounded up to the next number of whole shares of Common Stock.

Par Value of Common Stock.

The par value of the Common Stock as set forth above shall remain unchanged by the Conversion.

V

The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation shall be vested in its Board of Directors. The number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the Bylaws of the Corporation.

VI

In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to make, repeal, alter, amend and rescind the Bylaws of the Corporation.

VII

Election of directors at an annual or special meeting of shareholders need not be by written ballot.

VIII

Special meetings of the shareholders of the Corporation for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the Board of Directors or by a committee of the Board of Directors which has been duly designated by the Board of Directors and whose powers and authority, as provided in a resolution of the Board of Directors or in the Bylaws of the Corporation, include the power to call such meetings, but such special meetings may not be called by any other person or persons; provided, however, that if and to the extent that any special meeting of stockholders may be called by any other person or persons specified in any provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or any amendment thereto or any certificate filed under Section 151(g) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware (or its successor statute as in effect from time to time hereunder), then such special meeting may also be called by the person or persons, in the manner, at the times and for the purposes so specified.

IX

The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred on stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

X

The name and mailing address of the incorporator of the Corporation is:

Mr. Richard R. Janssen
c/o Alan J. Barton, Esq.
Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker
1299 Ocean Avenue, Fifth Floor
Santa Monica, California 90401

XI

A director shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director; provided that this sentence shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of his duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, (iii) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit. This Article XI shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date when this Article XI becomes effective.

Re:          Ebix, Inc. — Registration Statement on Form S-1

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for Ebix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on or about the date hereof relating to the offer and sale of 400,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company by certain stockholders of the Company.

This opinion letter is furnished to you at your request to enable you to fulfill the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K.

In connection with rendering our opinion herein, we have examined the following:

(1)           the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware;

(2)           the By-laws of the Company, as amended;

(3)           a unanimous written consent of the board of directors of the Company, taken as of July 11, 2007; and

(4)           the Registration Statement.

In our examination of documents, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures and the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as copies.

Based upon such examination and upon examination of such other instruments and records as we have deemed necessary, we are of the opinion that the 400,000 shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement have been legally authorized by the Company and, when sold in accordance with the terms described in the Registration Statement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement and to the reference to this firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement.  In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules or regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Very truly yours,
Smith, Gambrell & Russell, LLP

5. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PURCHASER

The Purchaser represents, warrants and covenants to the Company as follows:

5.1 Securities Law Representations, Warranties and Covenants

(a) The Purchaser is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in making, and is qualified to make, decisions with respect to investments in shares representing an investment decision like that involved in the purchase of the Shares, including investments in securities issued by the Company, and has requested, received, reviewed and considered all information it deems relevant in making an informed decision to purchase the Shares. The Purchaser is not relying, in making its decision to purchase the Shares, on any oral representations or statements made by the Company’s personnel, and is relying solely on the information contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC Documents”). Purchaser has carefully considered the potential risks relating to the Company and a purchase of the Shares, including the risks identified under “Risk Factors” in the SEC Documents, and fully understands that the Shares are speculative and include a high degree of risk of loss. The Purchaser acknowledges that no assurances are given by the Company that any pending plans will be completed.

(b) The Purchaser is acquiring the Shares in the ordinary course of its business and for its own account, and has no present intention of distributing any of the Shares nor any arrangement or understanding with any other persons regarding the distribution of such Shares, or as would otherwise not be in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws.

(c) The Purchaser has completed or caused to be completed and delivered to the Company the Stock Certificate Questionnaire and the Registration Statement Questionnaire attached to this Agreement as Appendices I and II, for

3

use in preparation of the Certificates, any necessary filings required by applicable state securities laws, and the Registration Statement (as defined in Section 7.4 below), and the answers to the Questionnaires are true and correct and will be true and correct as of the effective date of the Registration Statement.

(d) The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Shares nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Shares.

(e) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares.

 (f) The Purchaser understands that the offer and sale of the Shares to the Purchaser have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and the Shares may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned, pledged, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless (i) subsequently registered thereunder, (ii) the Purchaser shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Company in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such Shares to be offered for sale, sold, assigned, pledged, transferred or otherwise disposed of may be so offered for sale, sold, assigned, pledged, transferred or otherwise disposed of pursuant to an exemption from such registration, or (iii) the Purchaser provides the Company with written reasonable assurance that such Shares can be or are being offered for sale, sold, assigned, pledged, transferred or otherwise disposed of pursuant to, and in compliance with, Rule 144 under the Securities Act; provided, further, that in no event may the Shares be offered for sale, sold, assigned, pledged, transferred or otherwise disposed of prior to 60 days after the Closing.

(g) The Purchaser understands that the Certificates representing the Shares purchased by it hereunder, until the occurrence of an event described in Section 5.1(f), shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such Certificates):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTED FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR (C) WRITTEN REASONABLE ASSURANCE THAT IT WILL BE DONE PURSUANT TO, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH, RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.

The Company agrees to cause such legend and stop transfer order to be removed from the Certificates representing the Shares upon the occurrence of an event described in Section 5.1(f).

(h) The Purchaser will comply, at its own expense, with all applicable laws and regulations in any foreign jurisdiction in which it purchases, offers, sells or delivers any of the Shares.

5.2 Resales of Shares

(a) The Company shall notify the Purchaser if it determines, in good faith following consultation with its Board of Directors or a committee thereof, that an event has happened as a result of which the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as defined in Section 7.3.1 below) includes an untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Purchaser will suspend its use of the Prospectus until such time as an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus has been filed by the Company and any such amendment to the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, or until such time as the Company has filed an appropriate report with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act, in each case to correct such misstatement or omission. The Company shall use its best efforts to prepare and file with

4

the Commission any such amendment, supplement or report, as the case may be, as soon as practicable after delivering such notice to the Purchaser.

(b) In addition to the foregoing provisions of Section 5.2(b), the Company may, upon written notice to the Purchaser, suspend the use of the Prospectus for up to sixty (60) days, no more than thirty (30) days of which may be consecutive, in any 365-day period (less the number of days in such 365-day period that the Purchaser must suspend its use of the Prospectus pursuant to Section 5.2(a)) based on the reasonable determination of the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee thereof that there is a significant business purpose for such determination, such as pending corporate developments, public filings with the SEC or similar events. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in Section 5.2(a), the Company shall in no event be required to disclose the business purpose for which it has suspended the use of the Prospectus pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) if the Company determines in its good faith judgment that the business purpose should remain confidential.

(c) The Company shall notify the Purchaser (i) of any request by the Commission for an amendment or any supplement to such Registration Statement or any related Prospectus, or any other information request by any other governmental agency directly relating to the offering of the Shares, and (ii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any related Prospectus or the initiation or threat of any proceeding for that purpose.

(d) The Purchaser further covenants to notify the Company promptly of the sale of any of its Shares.

5.3 Due Execution, Delivery and Performance

(a) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy or other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors’ rights or remedies, (ii) general principles of equity or (iii) applicable laws and consideration of public policy relating to indemnification and contribution provisions.

(b) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms of this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, agency or other action and will not conflict with or violate the provisions of the organizational documents of the Purchaser, including, without limitation, its charter, bylaws, partnership agreement or operating agreement, as applicable, or any applicable statute, law, rule, regulation, ordinance, decision, directive or order, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Purchaser to consummate the transaction contemplated hereunder.

6. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS

Notwithstanding any investigation made by any party to this Agreement, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Company and the Purchasers in this Agreement shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the Purchasers of the Shares being purchased and the payment therefor.

(k) bear all expenses in connection with the procedures in paragraphs (a) through (i) of this Section 7.1 and the registration of the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, but excluding fees and expenses of counsel for the Purchasers and any commissions or other amounts payable to brokers and any transfer taxes relating to Shares sold by the Purchasers.

7.2 Transfer of Shares After Registration

6

untrue statement of any material fact contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, including financial statements and schedules, and all other documents filed as a part thereof, including any information deemed to be a part thereof as of the time of effectiveness pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 430A, or pursuant to Rule 434, under the Securities Act, or in the prospectus related thereto, in the form first filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or filed as part of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness if no Rule 424(b) filing is required (the “Prospectus”), or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in any of them a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any of them, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse the Purchaser Indemnitee for reasonable legal and other expenses as such expenses are incurred by such Purchaser Indemnitee or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to a Purchaser Indemnitee to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of a Purchaser expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) the failure of the applicable Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 5.2 or 7.2 of this Agreement regarding the resale of the Shares, or (iii) the inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by the Purchaser in this Agreement or (iv) any untrue statement or omission of a material fact required to make such statement not misleading in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus or supplement thereto that was delivered to the applicable Purchaser a reasonable amount of time before the pertinent sale or sales by such Purchaser or (v) a direct claim against the Company by such Purchaser Indemnitee if such Purchaser Indemnitee is a person that is under common control with any Purchaser (as opposed to a third-party claim against such Purchaser Indemnitee).

7.3.2 Indemnification by the Purchaser

Subject to Section 7.3.5, the Purchaser will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Purchaser), insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon (i) any failure on the part of such Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 5.2 or 7.2 of this Agreement regarding the resale of the Shares or (ii) the inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by such Purchaser in this Agreement or (iii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Purchaser expressly for use therein and such Purchaser will reimburse the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each controlling person for reasonable legal and other expenses as such expenses are incurred by the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be liable for any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of which the Purchaser has delivered to the Company in writing a correction of such untrue statement or omission of a material fact a reasonable amount of time before the occurrence of the transaction from or upon which such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arose or was based.

7.3.3 Indemnification Procedure

(a) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7.3 of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party

7

under this Section 7.3, promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7.3 to the extent it is not prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(b) In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7.3 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless:

(i) the indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by such indemnifying party representing all of the indemnified parties who are parties to such action), or

(ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.

7.3.4 Contribution

If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is required by clause (i) of Section 7.3.1 or clause (iii) of Section 7.3.2 but is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under this Section 7.3 in respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in this Agreement, then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in this Agreement in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and the Purchaser in connection with the statements or omissions, the inaccuracies in the representations and warranties in this Agreement or the breach of covenants and agreements in this Agreement that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative fault of the Company and the Purchaser shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or the inaccurate or the alleged inaccurate representation or warranty relates to information supplied by the Company or by such Purchaser and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.3.3, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in Section 7.3.3 with respect to the notice of the threat or commencement of any threat or action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 7.3.4; provided, however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any threat or action for which notice has been given under Section 7.3 for purposes of indemnification. The Company and the Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.3 were determined solely by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.3, no Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total proceeds received by it from the sale of the Shares exceeds the amount of any damages that such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or

8

alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Purchasers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7.3 are several and not joint.

7.3.5 Limits on Liability

In no event shall the aggregate liability hereunder of the Purchaser exceed (x) the purchase price paid by the Purchaser for the Shares it bought hereunder with respect to the matters described in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.3.2 and (y) the gross proceeds to such Purchaser as a result of the sale of Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement, Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto with respect to the matters described in clause (iii) of Section 7.3.2.

7.4 Rule 144 Information

Until the earlier of (i) the date on which the Shares may be resold by the Purchaser without registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the Shares have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect, the Company shall file all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and the Exchange Act so long as it is subject to such requirements and shall take such further reasonable action to the extent required to enable the Purchaser to sell the Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (as such rule may be amended from time to time).
