RELEASE OF LIABILITY, WAIVER OF CLAIMS AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT In consideration of the Releasees allowing me to participate in wilderness activities I hereby agree as follows:
Indemnification for Third Party Claims
(a) Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, its shareholders and Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against all third party Claims and Liabilities for injury, including death, and property damage caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance by any Project Party of the Transaction Documents to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller, the Contractor, any Subcontractor, and its respective employees or agents.
(b) Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its managers, officers, employees and agents, from and against all third party Claims and Liabilities for injury, including death, and property damage caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance of the Transaction Documents to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer, its employees or agents.
(c) Either Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the Party required to provide indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after the Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any Claim as to which indemnity may be sought hereunder, and the Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnifying Party (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) to assume the defense of any Claim or litigation resulting therefrom; provided that:
(i) counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of such Claim or litigation shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party;
(ii) the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense, except the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for its participation in such defense to the extent that the Indemnifying Party requests the Indemnified Party to participate in its own defense; and
(iii) the omission by the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that such omission results in a failure of actual notice to the Indemnifying Party and Indemnifying Party is damaged as a result of such failure to give notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party may not settle any Claim related to the indemnity being provided hereunder without the consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
(d) With regard to any Claim or Liability which is the result of the joint or concurrent fault or negligence of Seller and Buyer, the Parties agree to jointly defend any Claim with respect thereto that is based on such joint or concurrent fault or negligence of Buyer and Seller. Any Claim of contribution or indemnification between Buyer and Seller relating to such Claims shall be resolved on the basis of the percentage of fault or negligence and the Parties agree to reserve the determination of such percentage until after resolution of such Claim. Such pro rata share shall be based upon a final judicial determination of the Parties’ comparative fault or negligence or, in the absence of such determination, by mutual agreement.
(e) Nothing in this Section 26.1 is intended to allow any Indemnified Party to be indemnified from and against any third party Claims and Liabilities caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance of this Agreement to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by, arose out of, or were in any way incidental to or in connection with its own negligence or intentional misconduct.
Indemnification Procedures for Third Party Claims If a claim by a third party (including claims for breaches of fiduciary duties) is made against an Indemnified Party and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto from the Company (in the case of a Purchaser Indemnified Party seeking such indemnity) or the Purchaser (in the case of a Company Indemnified Party seeking indemnity) (each of the Company or the Purchaser, as the case may be, in such capacity, an “Indemnifying Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give notice in writing as promptly as reasonably practicable to such Indemnifying Party of any Proceeding commenced against or by it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify such Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have on account of this Article VI, so long as such failure shall not have materially prejudiced the position of such Indemnifying Party. Upon such notification, the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding brought by a third party, and, after such assumption, the Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any expenses thereafter incurred by it in connection with such Proceeding, except as described below. In any such Proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel (including local counsel), but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to promptly assume and thereafter conduct such defense, (ii) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (iii) in the reasonable determination of counsel for the Indemnified Party, representation of such Indemnified Party by counsel obtained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of a third-party claim, shall, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned by such Indemnifying Party), but if settled with such consent or if there be final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any Loss by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Indemnifying Party will advance expenses to an Indemnified Party as reasonably incurred so long as such indemnified party shall have provided the indemnifying party with a written undertaking to reimburse the indemnifying party for all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that the indemnified party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder (which shall include breaches of fiduciary duty if permitted above).
Release and Indemnification Covenants (1) Developer releases City and the governing body members, officers, agents, servants and employees thereof (hereinafter, for purposes of this Section, the Indemnified Parties) from and covenants and agrees that the Indemnified Parties shall not be liable for, and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties against any loss or damage to property or any injury to or death of any person occurring at or about or resulting from any defect in the Minimum Improvements.

(4) All covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements and obligations of City contained herein shall be deemed to be the covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements and obligations of City, and not of any governing body member, officer, agent, servant or employee of City in their individual capacity thereof.

The Depositor, the Sponsor and the Trustee shall immediately notify the Master Servicer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Depositor, the Sponsor or the Trustee to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Master Servicer shall assume the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Master Servicer shall not settle any claim involving any of the other parties hereto without such party’s prior written consent unless such settlement involves a complete and absolute release of such party from any and all liability in connection with such claim. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the termination of the Master Servicer as a party to this Agreement.
Court-Ordered Indemnification Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a court of appropriate jurisdiction, upon application of Indemnitee and such notice as the court shall require, may order indemnification of Indemnitee by the Company in the following circumstances:
(a) if such court determines that Indemnitee is entitled to reimbursement under Section 2-418(d)(1) of the MGCL, the court shall order indemnification, in which case Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover the Expenses of securing such reimbursement; or
(b) if such court determines that Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances, whether or not Indemnitee (i) has met the standards of conduct set forth in Section 2-418(b) of the MGCL or (ii) has been adjudged liable for receipt of an improper personal benefit under Section 2-418(c) of the MGCL, the court may order such indemnification as the court shall deem proper without regard to any limitation on such court-ordered indemnification contemplated by Section 2-418(d)(2)(ii) of the MGCL.
