Company Indemnification The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls the Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows: (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any related Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 11(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be delayed or withheld; and (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of counsel), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above, provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Agent expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or in any related Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).
Indemnification Limitations (a) In no event shall the Sellers be liable for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than in respect of the representations and warranties in Section 4.1 (Corporate Status), Section 4.2 (Authority), the first two sentences of each of Section 4.4(a) and 4.4(b) (Capitalization), Section 4.7 (Taxes), and Section 4.21 (Finder’s Fee) (collectively, the “Excluded Representations”) and Section 4.17 (Sufficiency of Assets)) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses with respect to Section 10.2(a)(i) that are imposed on or incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties exceeds $1,400,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which case the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification for all Losses from the first dollar, including both the Threshold Amount and any amounts in excess thereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Sellers shall not (i) be required to make payments for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than in respect of the Excluded Representations) in an aggregate amount in excess of $18,000,000 (the “Indemnification Cap”), or (ii) be liable for indemnification with respect to any Loss by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than in respect of the Excluded Representations) to the extent such Loss and all Losses arising out of the same facts and circumstances are, in the aggregate, less than $15,000 (each, a “De Minimis Loss”) (and such Losses shall be disregarded and shall not be aggregated for purposes of the Threshold Amount unless and until such Losses arising out of the same facts or circumstances exceed the De Minimis Loss amount). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Sellers shall have ninety (90) days after the receipt of an indemnification claim for any Loss by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in respect of Section 4.20(b) (Products Liability; Warranty) in which to propose a commercially reasonable alternative to satisfy such claim, including the repair, replacement or redelivery of any products that are the subject of such claim, which such commercially reasonable alternative is subject to the prior written approval of the Purchaser Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (it being understood that any and all costs or other Losses imposed on or incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising out of such alternative shall, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations contained herein, be considered indemnifable Losses). Purchaser shall not be required to make payments for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(b)(i) in an aggregate amount in excess of the Indemnification Cap. (b) In calculating amounts payable to an Indemnified Party hereunder, the amount of any indemnified Losses shall be determined without duplication of any other Loss for which an indemnification claim has been made or could be made under any other representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement and shall be computed net of (i) payments recovered by the Indemnified Party under indemnification agreements or arrangements with third parties or under any insurance policy with respect to such Losses (after deduction for any cost of collection, deductible, retroactive premium adjustment, reimbursement obligation or other cost or expense directly related thereto) (each, a “Collateral Source”), (ii) any prior recovery by the Indemnified Party from any Person with respect to such Losses, including by such Loss being included as a Liability in Final Net Working Capital and actually resulting in an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.4(f), or (iii) any Tax Benefit actually received by a Purchased Entity with respect to such Losses in the year of the indemnity payment or a prior year, but increased by the amount of any Tax detriment actually paid by any Indemnified Party as a result of such party’s receipt of the indemnification payment with respect to such Loss. In the event of any indemnification claim paid, Honeywell may, in its sole discretion, require the Indemnified Party to grant to Honeywell an assignment of the right of such Indemnified Party to assert a claim against any Collateral Source. If the amount to be netted hereunder from any payment required under this Article X or Article VIII is determined after payment of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Party under this Article X or Article VIII, the Indemnified Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article X or Article VIII had such determination been made at the time of such payment. (c) Subject to the other provisions of this Article X, but notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) in no event shall the Sellers or Purchaser be liable for any punitive damages, except to the extent such damages are payable to an unaffiliated third party and (ii) in no event shall the Sellers be liable for any consequential damages (it being understood and agreed that the term “consequential damages” used herein shall not include damages related to lost profits, diminution in value (including multiple of earnings or similar metrics for measuring damages), nor damages payable to an unaffiliated third party) arising out of indemnification claims for Excluded Liabilities described in Sections 2.5(a)(iv), (v)(A), (vii)(B), (ix), (x), (xi), (xii), and (xiv) and Section 2.5(b)(vi) (each such indemnification claim, a “Business Related Excluded Liabilities Claim”) in excess of $28,000,000; provided that the foregoing limitation on consequential damages shall not apply to the extent any such Excluded Liability relates to the Excluded Assets, the Purchased Entities’ Excluded Assets, or operation or conduct by the Sellers or any of their Affiliates of any business (other than the Business). Purchaser and the Sellers shall, and Purchaser shall cause the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to, in good faith, (x) agree upon what portion of damages (if any) constitute consequential damages in connection with the settlement of a Business Related Excluded Liabilities Claim and (y) use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Governmental Authority to determine what portion of damages (if any) constitute consequential damages as part of any Governmental Order that is entered by such Governmental Authority in connection with a Business Related Excluded Liabilities Claim. (d) Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, after the Closing, indemnification and specific performance pursuant to the provisions of this Article X, Section 6.14 and Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties with respect to any and all claims (whether in contract or in tort) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (other than remedies set forth in the Ancillary Agreements with regard to the transactions contemplated thereby), including in respect of any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty, covenant or other provision contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto. Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, as a material inducement to the Sellers entering into this Agreement, Purchaser hereby waives, from and after the Closing, any claim or cause of action, known and unknown, foreseen and unforeseen, which it or any of the other Purchaser Indemnified Parties may have against any Seller or any of its Affiliates, including without limitation under the common law or federal or state securities Laws, trade regulation Laws or other Laws (including any relating to Intellectual Property, products liability (including Products Liability Claims), Tax, environmental, real estate or employee matters), by reason of this Agreement and the transactions provided for herein, except for claims or causes of action brought under and subject to the terms and conditions of the provisions contained in this Article X and Article VIII. All payments made pursuant to this Article X and Article VIII shall be made by the Sellers to Purchaser or by Purchaser to the Sellers, as the case may be, and shall be deemed to be adjustments to the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Article X shall limit any claim by a Purchaser Indemnified Party alleging that Sellers defrauded such Person by intentionally omitting or misstating any disclosure in the Disclosure Schedule where such omission or misstatement constitutes a breach in any material respect of any express representation or warranty, which claims shall, in any case, be subject to the provisions of Sections 4.23, 5.7(a)-(d), 11.7 and 11.8. (e) The Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the other parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise is breached, so that a party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof. In particular, the parties acknowledge that the Business is unique and recognize and affirm that in the event that the Sellers breach this Agreement, money damages would be inadequate and Purchaser would have no adequate remedy at law, so that Purchaser shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to enforce its rights and the Sellers’ obligations hereunder not only by action for damages but also by action for specific performance, injunctive, and/or other equitable relief.
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.
Buyer Indemnification Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any and all claims, damages and liabilities arising from Buyer' breach of their representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement.
Seller Indemnification (a) The Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser against any and all Damages. “Damages,” as used herein, shall include any claim, action, demand, loss, cost, expense, liability (joint or several), penalty and other damage, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and other costs and expenses reasonably incurred in investigation or in attempting to avoid the same or oppose the imposition thereof or in enforcing this indemnity, resulting to Purchaser from (i) any inaccurate representation made by or on behalf of The Seller or the Company in this Agreement or any certificate or other document referenced in, this Agreement and delivered pursuant hereto, (ii) the breach of any of the warranties or agreements made by or on behalf of the Seller or the Company in this Agreement or any certificate or other document referenced in this Agreement and delivered pursuant hereto, or (iii) the breach or default in the performance by the Seller of any of the obligations to be performed hereunder. The Seller agrees to pay or reimburse the Purchaser for any payment made or amount payable or loss suffered or incurred by the Purchaser at any time from and after the Closing in respect of any Damages to which the foregoing indemnity relates. (b) If any claim shall be asserted against Purchaser by a third party for which Purchaser intends to seek indemnification from the Seller under this Section, Purchaser shall given written notice to the Seller of the nature of the claim asserted within forty-five (45) days after any executive officer of Purchaser learns of the assertion thereof and determines that the Purchaser may have a right of indemnification with respect thereto, but the failure to give this notice will not relieve the Seller of any liability hereunder in respect of this claim. The Purchaser shall have the exclusive right to conduct, through counsel of its own choosing, which counsel is approved by the Seller (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld), the defense of any such claim or action, and may compromise or settle such claims or actions with the prior consent of the Seller (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).
ERISA Indemnification Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense, and settlement of Losses incurred in correcting any prohibited transaction or in the sale of a prohibited loan, and in obtaining any individual prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA that may be required, in Lender's sole discretion) that Lender may incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of a default under Sections 4.1.9 or 5.2.12 of the Loan Agreement.
Additional Indemnification; Limitation of Liability A. Subject to Section 2(A), USBFS CANNOT AND DOES NOT GUARANTEE AVAILABILITY OF THE ELECTRONIC SERVICES. Accordingly, USBFS’s sole liability to the Trust or any third party (including End Users) for any claims, notwithstanding the form of such claims (e.g., contract, negligence, or otherwise), arising out of the delay of or interruption in the Electronic Services to be provided by USBFS hereunder shall be to use its best reasonable efforts to commence or resume the Electronic Services as promptly as is reasonably possible. B. USBFS shall, at its sole cost and expense, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Trust and its trustees, officers and employees from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, expenses and liabilities of any and every nature (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to (a) any infringement, or claim of infringement, of any United States patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret, or other proprietary rights based on the use or potential use of the Electronic Services and (b) the provision of the Trust Files (as defined below) or Confidential Information (as defined below) to a person other than a person to whom such information may be properly disclosed hereunder. C. If an injunction is issued against the Trust’s use of the Electronic Services by reason of infringement of a patent, copyright, trademark, or other proprietary rights of a third party, USBFS shall, at its own option and expense, either (i) procure for the Trust the right to continue to use the Electronic Services on substantially the same terms and conditions as specified hereunder, or (ii) after notification to the Trust, replace or modify the Electronic Services so that they become non-infringing, provided that, in the Trust’s judgment, such replacement or modification does not materially and adversely affect the performance of the Electronic Services or significantly lessen their utility to the Trust. If in the Trust’s judgment, such replacement or modification does materially adversely affect the performance of the Electronic Services or significantly lessen their utility to the Trust, the Trust may terminate all rights and responsibilities under this Exhibit C immediately on written notice to USBFS. D. Because the ability of USBFS to deliver Electronic Services is dependent upon the Internet and equipment, software, systems, data and services provided by various telecommunications carriers, equipment manufacturers, firewall providers and encryption system developers and other vendors and third parties, USBFS shall not be liable for delays or failures to perform its obligations hereunder to the extent that such delays or failures are attributable to circumstances beyond its reasonable control which interfere with the delivery of the Electronic Services by means of the Internet or any of the equipment, software and services which support the Internet provided by such third parties. USBFS shall also not be liable for the actions or omissions of any third party wrongdoers (i.e., hackers not employed by USBFS or its affiliates) or of any third parties involved in the Electronic Services and shall not be liable for the selection of any such third party, unless USBFS selected the third party in bad faith or in a grossly negligent manner. E. USBFS shall not be responsible for the accuracy of input material from End Users nor the resultant output derived from inaccurate input. The accuracy of input and output shall be judged as received at USBFS’s data center as determined by the records maintained by USBFS. F. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, USBFS shall not be obligated to ensure or verify the accuracy or actual receipt, or the transmission, of any data or information contained in any transaction via the Electronic Services or the consummation of any inquiry or transaction request not actually reviewed by USBFS.
Expenses Indemnification Etc (a) The Credit Parties, jointly and severally, agree to pay or reimburse: (i) Agents for all of their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, but limited to in the case of counsel, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of one primary legal counsel for Lenders and Agents selected by Administrative Agent and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction reasonably deemed necessary by Agents and any “ClearPar” costs and expenses) in connection with (1) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Documents and the extension and syndication of credit (including the Loans and Commitments) hereunder and (2) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any modification, supplement, amendment or waiver of any of the terms of any Credit Document (whether or not consummated or effective) requested by the Credit Parties; (ii) each Agent and each Lender for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Agent or Lender (provided that any legal expenses shall be limited to the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of one primary legal counsel for Lenders and Agents selected by Administrative Agent and of one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction reasonably deemed necessary by Agents) (and solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, where the Persons affected by such conflict inform Borrower in writing of the existence of an actual or perceived conflict of interest prior to retaining additional counsel, one additional of each such counsel for each group of similarly situated Secured Parties)) in connection with (1) any enforcement or collection proceedings resulting from any Event of Default, including all manner of participation in or other involvement with (x) bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up or liquidation proceedings, (y) judicial or regulatory proceedings and (z) workout, restructuring or other negotiations or proceedings (whether or not the workout, restructuring or transaction contemplated thereby is consummated), (2) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the enforcement of any Credit Document and (3) the enforcement of this Section 13.03; and (iii) Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable but without duplication, for all reasonable and documented costs, expenses, assessments and other charges (including reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Credit Document or any other document referred to therein. Without limiting the rights of any Agent under this Section 13.03(a), each Agent, promptly after a request of Borrower from time to time, will advise Borrower of an estimate of any amount anticipated to be incurred by such Agent and reimbursed by Borrower under this Section 13.03(a). (b) The Credit Parties, jointly and severally, hereby agree to indemnify each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, trustees, officers, employees, representatives, advisors, partners and agents (each, an “Indemnitee”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all Losses incurred by, imposed on or asserted against any of them directly or indirectly arising out of or by reason of or relating to the negotiation, execution, delivery, performance, administration or enforcement of any Credit Document, any of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents (including the Transactions), any breach by any Credit Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in any Credit Document in connection with any of the Transactions, the use or proposed use of any of the Loans or Letters of Credit, the issuance of or performance under any Letter of Credit or, the use of any collateral security for the Obligations (including the exercise by any Agent or Lender of the rights and remedies or any power of attorney with respect thereto or any action or inaction in respect thereof), including all amounts payable by any Lender pursuant to Section 12.08, but excluding (i) any such Losses relating to matters referred to in Sections 5.01 or 5.06 (which shall be the sole remedy in respect of matters referred to therein), (ii) any such Losses arising from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of any Credit Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Indemnified Persons (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision) and (iii) any such Losses relating to any dispute between and among Indemnitees that does not involve an act or omission by any Company (other than any claims against Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any other agent or bookrunner named on the cover page hereto or any L/C Lender, in each case, acting in such capacities or fulfilling such roles). For purposes of this Section 13.03(b), a “Related Indemnified Person” of an Indemnitee means (1) any controlling person or controlled affiliate of such Indemnitee, (2) the respective directors, officers, or employees of such Indemnitee or any of its controlling persons or controlled Affiliates and (3) the respective agents of such Indemnitee or any of its controlling persons or controlled Affiliates, in the case of this clause (3), acting at the instructions of such Indemnitee, controlling person or such controlled Affiliate; provided that each reference to a controlled Affiliate or controlling person in this sentence pertains to a controlled Affiliate or controlling person involved in the performance of the Indemnitee’s obligations under the facilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Credit Parties, jointly and severally, will indemnify each Agent, each Lender and each other Indemnitee from, and hold each Agent, each Lender and each other Indemnitee harmless against, any Losses incurred by, imposed on or asserted against any of them arising under any Environmental Law as a result of (i) the past, present or future operations of any Company (or any predecessor-in-interest to any Company), (ii) the past, present or future condition of any site or facility owned, operated, leased or used at any time by any Company (or any such predecessor-in-interest) to the extent such Losses arise from or relate to the parties’ relationship under the Credit Documents or to any Company’s (or such predecessor-in-interest’s) (A) ownership, operation, lease or use of such site or facility or (B) any aspect of the respective business or operations of such parties, and, in each case shall include, without limitation, any and all such Losses for which any Company could be found liable, or (iii) any Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any such site or facility to the extent such Losses arise from or relate to the parties’ relationship under the Credit Documents or to any Company’s (or such predecessor-in-interest’s) (A) ownership, operation, lease or use of such site or facility or (B) any aspect of the respective business or operations of such parties, and, in each case shall include, without limitation, any and all such Losses for which any Company could be found liable, including any such Release or threatened Release that shall occur during any period when any Agent or Lender shall be in possession of any such site or facility following the exercise by such Agent or Lender, as the case may be, of any of its rights and remedies hereunder or under any of the Security Documents; provided, however, that the indemnity hereunder shall be subject to the exclusions from indemnification set forth in the preceding sentence. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify and hold harmless set forth in this Section 13.03 or any other provision of any Credit Document providing for indemnification is unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy or otherwise, the Credit Parties, jointly and severally, shall contribute the maximum portion that each of them is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified liabilities incurred by any of the Persons indemnified hereunder. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and the parties hereto hereby waive, any claim against any Person, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Credit Parties’ indemnity and reimbursement obligations to the extent set forth in this Section 13.03 (including the Credit Parties’ indemnity and reimbursement obligations to indemnify the Indemnitees for indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage that are included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder). No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of any Credit Document by such Indemnitee as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Basic Indemnification Arrangement (a) In the event Indemnitee was, is or becomes a party to or witness or other participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, a Claim by reason of (or arising in part out of) an Indemnifiable Event, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law as soon as practicable but in any event no later than thirty days after written demand is presented to the Company, against any and all Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties or amounts paid in settlement) of such Claim. If so requested by Indemnitee, the Company shall advance (within five business days of such request) any and all Expenses to Indemnitee (an “Expense Advance”). (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the obligations of the Company under Section 2(a) shall be subject to the condition that the Reviewing Party shall not have determined (in a written opinion, in any case in which the Independent Legal Counsel referred to in Section 3 hereof is involved) that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law, and (ii) the obligation of the Company to make an Expense Advance pursuant to Section 2(a) shall be subject to the condition that, if, when and to the extent that the Reviewing Party determines that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be so indemnified under applicable law, the Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Indemnitee (who hereby agrees to reimburse the Company) for all such amounts theretofore paid; provided, however, that if Indemnitee has commenced or thereafter commences legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure a determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law, any determination made by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law shall not be binding and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any Expense Advance until a final judicial determination is made with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or lapsed). If there has not been a Change in Control, the Reviewing Party shall be selected by the Board of Directors, and if there has been such a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control which has been approved by a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control), the Reviewing Party shall be the Independent Legal Counsel referred to in Section 3 hereof. If there has been no determination by the Reviewing Party or if the Reviewing Party determines that Indemnitee substantively would not be permitted to be indemnified in whole or in part under applicable law, Indemnitee shall have the right to commence litigation in any court in the State of Colorado or Delaware having subject matter jurisdiction thereof and in which venue is proper seeking an initial determination by the court or challenging any such determination by the Reviewing Party or any aspect thereof, including the legal or factual bases therefor, and the Company hereby consents to service of process and agrees to appear in any such proceeding. Any determination by the Reviewing Party otherwise shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and Indemnitee.
