• Additional Indemnification Provisions (a) The Parent and the Acquiror agree, for themselves and on behalf of their respective Affiliates and Representatives, that with respect to each indemnification obligation set forth in ARTICLE X of this Agreement or any other certificate executed or delivered in connection with the Closing: (i) Deductible Losses shall be calculated on an After-Tax Basis; (ii) all Losses shall be net of any Eligible Insurance Proceeds; (iii) in no event shall the Parent have any liability or obligation to any Acquiror Indemnified Party pursuant to this ARTICLE X with respect to the inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty made by the Parent pursuant to this Agreement to the extent that Losses resulting from or in connection with such inaccuracy or breach have been recovered by the Acquiror in connection with the calculation of the Final Actual Closing Solvency Capital; (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall be liable to the Indemnified Party for any Losses to the extent incurred in connection with the Indemnified Party’s successful assertion, enforcement, dispute or resolution of its indemnification or other rights under this Agreement or the collection of any amounts payable to a Party under this Agreement; (v) solely with respect to claims that are not Third Party Claims, the Indemnified Party shall be liable to the Indemnifying Party for any Losses to the extent incurred in connection with the Indemnifying Party’s successful defense of any claim by the Indemnified Party for indemnification or other rights under this Agreement; (vi) in no event shall the Parent have any liability or obligation to any Acquiror Indemnified Party to the extent that any Loss, or any portion thereof, for which indemnification is sought hereunder is specifically reflected or reserved for in the Final Actual Closing Solvency Capital Worksheet and taken into account in the calculation of the Final Actual Closing Solvency Capital; and (vii) notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of ARTICLE VII and this ARTICLE X, (A) a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to exist either if such representation or warranty is actually inaccurate or breached or would have been inaccurate or breached if such representation or warranty had not contained any qualification as to materiality, or Acquiror Material Adverse Effect or Material Adverse Effect (which, in each case, instead will be read as any adverse effect or change) or similar language, and (B) the amount of Losses in respect of any breach of a representation or warranty, including any deemed breach resulting from the application of clause (A), shall be determined without regard to any limitation or qualification as to materiality, or Acquiror Material Adverse Effect or Material Adverse Effect (which, in each case, instead will be read as any adverse effect or change) or similar language set forth in such representation or warranty.

• Redemption Provisions Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Certificate of Incorporation of Borrower, as amended from time to time (the “Charter”), if, pursuant to the redemption provisions contained in the Charter, Lender is entitled to a redemption of its Warrant, such redemption (in the case of Lender) will be at a price equal to the redemption price set forth in the Charter (the “Existing Redemption Price”). If, however, Lender delivers written notice to Borrower that the then current regulations promulgated under the SBIC Act prohibit payment of the Existing Redemption Price in the case of an SBIC (or, if applied, the Existing Redemption Price would cause the Series C Preferred Stock to lose its classification as an “equity security” and Lender has determined that such classification is unadvisable), the amount Lender will be entitled to receive shall be the greater of (i) fair market value of the securities being redeemed taking into account the rights and preferences of such securities plus any costs and expenses of the Lender incurred in making or maintaining the Warrant, and (ii) the Existing Redemption Price where the amount of accrued but unpaid dividends payable to the Lender is limited to Borrower's earnings plus any costs and expenses of the Lender incurred in making or maintaining the Warrant; provided, however, the amount calculated in subsections (i) or (ii) above shall not exceed the Existing Redemption Price.

The only limitation that shall exist upon the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement shall be that the Company shall not be obligated to make any payment to Indemnitee that is finally determined (under the procedures, and subject to the presumptions, set forth in Sections 6 and 7 hereof) to be unlawful.

The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with the engagement of Placement Agent by the Company or for any other reason, except to the extent that any such liability is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

These indemnification provisions shall be in addition to any liability, which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Party. If any action, suit, proceeding or investigation is commenced, as to which an Indemnified Party proposes to demand indemnification, it shall notify the Company with reasonable promptness; provided, however, that any failure by an Indemnified Party to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company from its obligations hereunder. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain counsel of its own choice to represent it, and the fees, expenses and disbursements of such counsel shall be borne by the Company. Any such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the Company and any counsel designated by the Company.
