INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 10.1 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and each of its members, directors, limited and general partners, managers, officers, employees and controlling persons, and each of their respective successors and assigns (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Xxxxx Affiliates) (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons” and each individually, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, demands and liabilities, joint or several, or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, brought by or against any person (collectively, “Losses”), relating to or arising out of any pending or threatened Action brought by or on behalf of the shareholders of the Target, the Company or Charter (each such Action, a “Shareholder Action”). Except as provided in Section 10.2 below, the Company agrees to reimburse each Indemnified Person promptly upon request for all reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of legal counsel) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for, defending (including, with the Company’s prior consent, counterclaims and impleading third parties) against or providing evidence in, any pending or threatened Shareholder Action (whether or not the Purchaser or any other Indemnified Person is a named party or witness, and whether or not any liability to any person results therefrom), including in connection with enforcing the terms hereof.

SECTION 10.2 Limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify, hold harmless or promptly reimburse any Indemnified Person under this Agreement or other obligation to any Indemnified Person in respect of any Losses to the extent that such Losses are finally judicially determined to have resulted from the material breach of this Agreement of or by any Indemnified Person. In the event that it is determined that an Indemnified Person materially breached this Agreement, such Indemnified Person shall be obligated to reimburse the Company for any amounts

previously paid by the Company or on behalf of such Indemnified Person. In case any proceeding shall be instituted in respect of which an Indemnified Person may seek indemnification, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing, but the failure to so notify the Company will not relieve it from any Liability which it may have hereunder or otherwise, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the Company’s rights with respect to such proceeding.

SECTION 10.3 Defense of Third-Party Claims

(a) Subject to the provisions hereof, the Company on behalf of the Indemnified Party shall have the right, by providing written notice to the Indemnified Party, to elect to defend and control the defense of any litigation that is instituted or claim or demand that is asserted by any third party in respect of which indemnification may be sought under this Article 10 (a “Third Party Claim”), the costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such defense (including attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees and court or arbitration costs) shall be paid by the Company. If the Company does not assume the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend, or assume control of the defense of, any Third-Party Claim against the Company. The Indemnified Party (unless itself controlling the Third-Party Claim in accordance with this Section 10.3(a)) may participate, through counsel of its own choice and, except as provided herein, at its own expense, in the defense of any Third-Party Claim.

(b) Any party controlling the defense of any Third-Party Claim pursuant hereto shall: (i) conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim with reasonable diligence and keep the other parties reasonably informed of material developments in the Third-Party Claim at all stages thereof; (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable, submit to the other parties copies of all pleadings, responsive pleadings, motions and other similar legal documents and papers received or filed in connection therewith; (iii) permit the other parties and their counsel to confer on the conduct of the defense thereof; and (iv) permit the other parties and their counsel an opportunity to review all legal papers to be submitted prior to their submission; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no party shall be required to disclose any information to the other party or its counsel, accountants or representatives, if doing so would be reasonably expected to violate any Law to which such person is subject or could jeopardize (in the reasonable discretion of the disclosing party) any attorney-client privilege available with respect to such information.

SECTION 10.4 Settlement of Claims. The Company agrees that it will not, without the Purchaser’s prior written consent, settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Purchaser or any other Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding and does not impose any monetary or financial obligation on any Indemnified Person or contain any admission of culpability or liability on the part of any Indemnified Person. The Company shall not be required to indemnify the Purchaser for any

amount paid or payable by the Purchaser in the settlement of any action, proceeding or investigation entered into without the prior written consent of the Company. No Indemnified Person seeking indemnification, reimbursement or contribution under this Agreement will, without the Company’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding referred to herein.

SECTION 10.5 Contribution. If the foregoing indemnification provided for herein is determined to be unavailable to an Indemnified Person for any reason (other than as specified in Section 10.2 or is insufficient to hold it harmless in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person hereunder, the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Losses (and expenses related thereto) (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and to the Purchaser, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) of this paragraph is not available, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of each of the Company and the Purchaser and any other relevant and equitable considerations.
