The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been satisfied if, at or prior to the Effective Time, the Company or Parent (on behalf of the Surviving Corporation) shall purchase six (6) year prepaid “tail” policies on terms and conditions providing coverage retentions, limits and other material terms no less favorable than the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company with respect to matters arising at or prior to the Effective Time, except that the Company may not commit or spend on such “tail” policies annual premiums in excess of 300% of the annual premiums paid by the Company in its last full fiscal year prior to the date hereof for the Company’s current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance (the “Base Amount”), and if such premiums for such “tail” policies would exceed 300% of the Base Amount, then the Company shall purchase policies that provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to 300% of the Base Amount. The Company shall in good faith cooperate with Parent prior to the Effective Time with respect to the procurement of such “tail” policies, subject to such policy being fully prepaid, including with respect to the selection of the broker, available policy price and coverage options. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain such policies in full force and effect for their full term, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

If the Partnership in its sole discretion elects, then the Partnership may, prior to the Effective Time, purchase (and prepay in full the aggregate premium for) a “tail policy,” that by its terms survives the Effective Time and the transactions contemplated hereby, with respect to acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred prior to the Effective Time that were committed or alleged to have been committed by such Indemnified Parties in their capacity as such or relating to their status, service or duties as Indemnified Parties (with such policy having at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are no less favorable to the covered individuals as existing policies); provided that in no event shall the Partnership be permitted to pay as the cost of such policy in excess of six times the Maximum Amount and, if such a “tail policy” is purchased, Parent shall have no further obligations under this Section 5.10(c) other than that the Surviving Entity shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to, maintain such policies in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.
