In the event of the death, resignation or removal of the Shareholder Representative, a new Shareholder Representative shall be appointed by a vote of Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Shareholder Representative.

The Shareholder Representative shall, at the expense of the Shareholders, be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as they shall deem necessary in connection with exercising their powers and performing their function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Shareholder Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. (c) The Shareholder Representative shall not be entitled to any fee, commission or other compensation for the performance of its services hereunder, but shall be entitled to the reimbursement by the Shareholders of all his, her or its fees and expenses incurred as the Shareholder Representative pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof. In connection with this Agreement, and any instrument, agreement or document relating hereto or thereto, and in exercising or failing to exercise all or any of the powers conferred upon the Shareholder Representative hereunder, the Shareholder Representative shall incur no responsibility whatsoever to any Shareholder by reason of any error in judgment or other act or omission performed or omitted hereunder or any such other agreement, instrument or document, excepting only responsibility for any act or failure to act which represents willful misconduct. Each Shareholder shall indemnify, pro rata based upon such holder's percentage interest, the Shareholder Representative against all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, obligations, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys', accountants' and other experts' or consultant's fees and the amount of any judgment against the Shareholder Representative, of any nature whatsoever, arising out of or in connection with any claim, investigation, challenge, action or proceeding or in connection with any appeal thereof, relating to the acts or omissions of the Shareholder Representative hereunder. The foregoing indemnification shall not apply in the event of any action or proceeding which finally adjudicates the liability of the Shareholder Representative hereunder for his or her gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event of any indemnification hereunder, upon written notice from Shareholder Representative to the Shareholders as to the existence of a deficiency toward the payment of any such indemnification amount, each such holder shall promptly deliver to the Shareholder Representative full payment of his or her ratable share of the amount of such deficiency, in accordance with such Shareholder's percentage interest. In no event shall the Company be responsible for any reimbursement or indemnification of the Shareholder Representative. (d) All of the indemnities, immunities and powers granted to the Shareholder Representative under this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
