The shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by the Company Preferred Shareholder Indemnifying Party (or cash in lieu thereof, at the election of the Company Preferred Shareholder Indemnifying Party) shall be the sole source from which any Indemnified Party may be indemnified by the Company Preferred Shareholder Indemnifying Party under this Article VIII. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by each Shareholder (or cash in lieu thereof, at the election of the Shareholder) shall be the sole source from which any Indemnified Party may be indemnified by the Shareholder under this Article VIII.
(b) In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to recover or make a claim for any amounts in respect of, and in no event shall Losses be deemed to include, any punitive, special, incidental, exemplary, consequential, indirect or exemplary damages, or for any diminution in value (including any changes measured as a multiple of earnings, revenue or by any other similar performance metric and any loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity), except for any such damages to the extent actually awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction and paid to a third party in a Third Party Claim.
(c) No investigation by an Indemnified Party, or knowledge by an Indemnified Party or its representatives of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of an Indemnifying Party, conducted or arising at any time after the date of this Agreement, shall affect the recourse available to the Indemnified Party under this Article VIII.
(d) Any Losses recoverable hereunder shall be reduced in amount by insurance proceeds, indemnification payments, contribution payments or reimbursements actually received by any Indemnified Party in connection with such Losses, and the Indemnified Party shall use reasonable and diligent efforts to realize such benefits, proceeds, payments or reimbursements; provided, that nothing herein shall require any Indemnified Party to file any claim under any insurance policy.
(e) Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the extent reasonably necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss.
Specific Limitations on Indemnification Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Companies shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnity or payment to Indemnitee in connection with any claim against Indemnitee:
(a) to the extent that payment is actually made to Indemnitee under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise or is made to Indemnitee by either of the Companies or affiliates otherwise than pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the availability of such insurance, Indemnitee also may claim indemnification from the Companies pursuant to this Agreement by assigning to the Companies any claims under such insurance to the extent Indemnitee is paid by the Companies;
(b) for Liabilities in connection with Proceedings settled without the Companies’ consent, which consent, however, shall not be unreasonably withheld;
(c) in no event shall the Companies be liable to pay the fees and disbursements of more than one counsel in any single Proceeding except to the extent that, in the opinion of counsel of the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee has conflicting interests in the outcome of such Proceeding;
(d) to the extent it would be otherwise prohibited by law, if so established by a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to Indemnitee;
(e) for an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Companies within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law;
(f) in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Companies or their directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the commencement of such Proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation and following the Effective Time, or (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law; or
(g) for any reimbursement of the Companies by Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation or of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Companies, as required in each case under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting restatement of the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 (the “Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act”), or the payment to the Companies of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act), if Indemnitee is held liable therefor.
Limitations on Indemnification (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.2, Seller shall not be required to indemnify or hold harmless any of Buyer Indemnified Parties on account of any Buyer Indemnified Losses under Section 7.2 unless the liability of Seller in respect of such Buyer Indemnified Loss, when aggregated with the liability of Seller in respect of all Buyer Indemnified Losses under Section 7.2, exceeds $250,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which event Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification from Seller in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Buyer Indemnified Losses. In no event shall the aggregate liability of Seller under Section 7.2 of this Agreement exceed $2,000,000 (the “Ceiling Amount”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Threshold Amount nor the Ceiling Amount shall be applicable to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(iii) or Section 7.2(iv) or with respect to the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in the first and second sentences of Section 3.2, Section 3.2(e), Section 3.8 and Section 3.10. Seller may satisfy any obligations arising pursuant to this Article 7 in any combination of cash or the surrender of Consideration Units for redemption (valued at $21.00 per Consideration Unit); provided that, Seller must provide written notice to Buyer of the intent to make a payment (in whole or in part) by surrendering Consideration Units for redemption at least five business days prior to the due date of any such payment.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.3, Buyer shall not be required to indemnify or hold harmless any of the Seller Indemnified Parties on account of any Seller Indemnified Loss under Section 7.3 unless the liability of Buyer in respect of such Seller Indemnified Loss, when aggregated with the liability of Buyer in respect of all Seller Indemnified Losses under Section 7.3, exceeds the Threshold Amount, in which event Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification from Buyer in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Seller Indemnified Losses exceed the Threshold Amount. In no event shall Buyer be liable under Section 7.3 of this Agreement for any amount in excess of the Ceiling Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Threshold Amount nor the Ceiling Amount shall be applicable to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.3(iii) or Section 7.3(iv) or with respect the representations and warranties of Buyer set forth in Section 4.6.
(c) The amount of indemnity claim hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of any tax benefit actually realized by the Buyer Indemnified Parties or the Seller Indemnified Parties as a result of such claim.
(d) The amount of any indemnity claim hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of any proceeds of insurance actually received by the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, in connection with such claim; provided, however, the foregoing shall not bar any insurance company that has made any payment to a Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party from pursuing its lawful rights to subrogation.
(e) Except as set forth in Section 9.6(b), the parties agree that the indemnification provisions in this Article 7 shall be the exclusive remedy of the parties with respect to any claims between the parties concerning this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements.
Limitation on Liability; Indemnification (a) Rise assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder in good faith. Rise and its Affiliates, and any of their members, stockholders, managers, partners, personnel, officers, directors, employees, consultants and any person providing advisory or sub-advisory services to Rise, will not be liable to the Manager or the Manager’s stockholders, partners or members for any acts or omissions by any such Person (including errors that may result from ordinary negligence, such as errors in the investment decision making process or in the trade process) performed in accordance with and pursuant to this Agreement, except by reason of acts or omission constituting bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of their respective duties under this Agreement, as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Manager shall, to the full extent lawful, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Rise, its Affiliates, and any of their members, stockholders, managers, partners, personnel, officers, directors, employees, consultants and any person providing advisory or sub-advisory services to Rise (each, a “Rise Indemnified Party”), of and from any and all expenses, losses, damages, liabilities, demands, charges and claims of any nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) (collectively “Losses”) incurred by the Rise Indemnified Party in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (including an action or suit by or in the right of the Manager or its security holders) arising from any acts or omissions of such Rise Indemnified Party performed in good faith under this Agreement and not constituting bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duties of such Rise Indemnified Party under this Agreement.
(b) Rise shall, to the full extent lawful, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Manager, and the directors, officers, stockholders, partners or members of the Manager (each, a “Manager Indemnified Party” and, together with a Rise Indemnified Party, an “Indemnified Party”) of and from any and all Losses in respect of or arising from (i) any acts or omissions of Rise constituting bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duties of Rise under this Agreement or (ii) any claims by Rise’s employees relating to the terms and conditions of their employment by Rise. Rise hereby agrees that from the date hereof until the termination of this Agreement, Rise shall maintain errors and omissions and other customary insurance coverage in such amounts and with such carriers as determined by Rise, in its sole discretion.
(c) In case any such claim, suit, action or proceeding (a “Claim”) is brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification may be sought by such Indemnified Party pursuant hereto, the Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice thereof to the indemnifying party; provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have hereunder, except to the extent such failure actually materially prejudices the indemnifying party. Upon receipt of such notice of Claim (together with such documents and information from such Indemnified Party), the indemnifying party shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith defend any such Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will be entitled to participate but, subject to the next sentence, not control, the defense of any such action, with its own counsel and at its own expense. Such Indemnified Party may elect to conduct the defense of the Claim, if (i) such Indemnified Party reasonably determines that the conduct of its defense by the indemnifying party could be materially prejudicial to its interests, (ii) the indemnifying party refuses to assume such defense (or fails to give written notice to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days of receipt of a notice of Claim that the indemnifying party assumes such defense), or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, to defend the Claim in good faith. The indemnifying party may settle any Claim against such Indemnified Party without such Indemnified Party’s consent, provided, that (i) such settlement is without any Losses whatsoever to such Indemnified Party, (ii) the settlement does not include or require any admission of liability or culpability by such Indemnified Party and (iii) the indemnifying party obtains an effective written release of liability for such Indemnified Party from the party to the Claim with whom such settlement is being made, which release must be reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Party, and a dismissal with prejudice with respect to all claims made by the party against such Indemnified Party in connection with such Claim. The applicable Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense, in connection with the defense or settlement of any Claim in accordance with the terms hereof. If such Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to this Section 7 to elect to defend such Claim by counsel of its own choosing and so elects, then the indemnifying party shall be responsible for any good faith settlement of such Claim entered into by such Indemnified Party. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no Indemnified Party may pay or settle any Claim and seek reimbursement therefor under this Section 7.
(d) The Manager acknowledges that the duties owed by Rise to the Manager are contractual in nature and governed by the terms of this Agreement and that Rise shall owe no fiduciary duties to the Manager or its members.
(e) The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
Limitation on Indemnification Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this Agreement:
Exculpation; Indemnification Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, whether express or implied, or any obligation or duty at law or in equity, neither the Sole Member, nor any officers, directors, stockholders, partners, employees, affiliates, representatives or agents of the Sole Member, or any manager, officer, employee, representative or agent of the Company (individually, a “Covered Person” and, collectively, the “Covered Persons”) shall be liable to the Company or any other person for any act or omission (in relation to the Company, its property or the conduct of its business or affairs, this Agreement, any related document or any transaction or investment contemplated hereby or thereby) taken or omitted by a Covered Person in the reasonable belief that such act or omission is in or is not contrary to the best interests of the Company and is within the scope of authority granted to such Covered Person by the Company, provided such act or omission does not constitute fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person from and against any and all civil, criminal, administrative or investigative losses, claims, demands, liabilities, expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings (“Claims”), in which the Covered Person may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its management of the affairs of the Company or which relates to or arises out of the Company or its property, business or affairs. A Covered Person shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 11 with respect to (i) any Claim with respect to which such Covered Person has engaged in fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence or (ii) any Claim initiated by such Covered Person unless such Claim (or part thereof) (A) was brought to enforce such Covered Person’s rights to indemnification hereunder or (B) was authorized or consented to by the Board or the Sole Member. Expenses incurred by a Covered Person in defending any Claim shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Claim upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be ultimately determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by this Section 11.
Limitation of Liability; Indemnification (a) None of the Property Manager, its affiliates, or any of their respective directors, members, stockholders, partners, officers, employees or controlling persons (collectively, “Managing Parties”) shall be liable to the Company for (i) any act or omission performed or failed to be performed by any Managing Party (other than any criminal wrongdoing) arising from the exercise of such Managing Party’s rights or obligations hereunder, or for any losses, claims, costs, damages, or liabilities arising therefrom, in the absence of criminal wrongdoing, willful misfeasance or gross negligence on the part of such Managing Party, (ii) any tax liability imposed on the Company or the Asset, or (iii) any losses due to the actions or omissions of the Company or any brokers or other current or former agents or advisers of the Company.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company will indemnify the Property Manager and its Managing Parties against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, judgments, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) and amounts paid in settlement (collectively, “Losses”) to which such person may become subject in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, except to the extent that any such Loss results solely from the acts or omissions of a Managing Party that have been determined in a final, non-appealable decision of a court, arbitrator or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Managing Party’s fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence. If this Section 5 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify the Managing Party for any Losses incurred to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section that shall not have been invalidated.
(c) The Property Manager gives no warranty as to the performance or profitability of the Asset or as to the performance of any third party engaged by the Property Manager hereunder.
(d) The Property Manager may rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from action upon any instruction from, or document signed by, any authorized person of the Company or other person reasonably believed by the Property Manager to be authorized to give or sign the same whether or not the authority of such person is then effective.
Limits of Liability; Indemnification The Adviser assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder. The Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or for any loss suffered by the Trust or the Fund in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to receipt of compensation for services (in which case any award of damages shall be limited to the period and the amount set forth in Section 36(b)(3) of the Investment Company Act of 1940) or a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of, or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under, this Agreement. It is agreed that the Adviser shall have no responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness of the Trust's registration statement under the Act or the Securities Act of 1933, except for information supplied by the Adviser for inclusion therein. The Trust agrees to indemnify the Adviser to the full extent permitted by the Trust's Declaration of Trust.
Limitations on Indemnification Obligations (a) REDUCTIONS FOR INSURANCE PROCEEDS AND OTHER RECOVERIES. The amount that any party (an "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") is or may be required to pay to any other Person (an "INDEMNITEE") pursuant to Section 7.01 or Section 7.02 above, as applicable, shall be reduced (retroactively or prospectively) by any Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually recovered from third parties by or on behalf of such Indemnitee in respect of the related Indemnifiable Losses. The existence of a claim by an Indemnitee for insurance or against a third party in respect of any Indemnifiable Loss shall not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained herein and otherwise determined to be due and owing by an Indemnifying Party. Rather, the Indemnifying Party shall make payment in full of such amount so determined to be due and owing by it against an assignment by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party of the entire claim of the Indemnitee for such insurance or against such third party. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intention of the parties hereto that no insurer or any other third party shall be (i) entitled to a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions, (ii) relieved of the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated or (iii) entitled to any subrogation rights with respect to any obligation hereunder. If an Indemnitee shall have received the payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Indemnifiable Losses and shall subsequently actually receive Insurance Proceeds or other amounts in respect of such Indemnifiable Losses, then such Indemnitee shall hold such Insurance Proceeds in trust for the benefit of such Indemnifying Party and shall pay to such Indemnifying Party a sum equal to the amount of such Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually received, up to the aggregate amount of any payments received from such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such Indemnifiable Losses.
