Action for Indemnification To indemnify Indemnitee for any expenses incurred by Indemnitee with respect to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, unless Indemnitee is successful in establishing Indemnitee’s right to indemnification in such action, suit or proceeding, in whole or in part, or unless and to the extent that the court in such action, suit or proceeding shall determine that, despite Indemnitee’s failure to establish their right to indemnification, Indemnitee is entitled to indemnity for such expenses; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8(b) is intended to limit the Corporation’s obligation with respect to the advancement of expenses to Indemnitee in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, as provided in Section 4 hereof.
Standard for Indemnification If, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be, made a party to any Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement and all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with any such Proceeding unless it is established that (a) the act or omission of Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to the Proceeding and (i) was committed in bad faith or (ii) was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (b) Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services or (c) in the case of any criminal Proceeding, Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.
Exception to Right of Indemnification or Advancement of Expenses 17.1 Except as provided in Section 11.5, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement under this Agreement with respect to any Proceeding, or any claim therein, brought or made by him against the Company.
Request for Indemnification To obtain indemnification, Indemnitee shall submit to the Secretary of the Corporation a written claim or request. Such written claim or request shall contain sufficient information to reasonably inform the Corporation about the nature and extent of the indemnification or advance sought by Indemnitee. The Secretary of the Corporation shall promptly advise the Board of Directors of such request.
Procedures for Indemnification and Expense Advances (a) NOTICE/COOPERATION BY INDEMNITEE. Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing as soon as practicable of any claim or action made against Indemnitee for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement; provided that failure to so notify shall not affect Company's obligations hereunder unless the failure to so notify materially prejudices the Company's rights or defenses in connection with the underlying claim or action. In addition, Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Company and provide it with the information it reasonably requires to assert its rights or defenses to the underlying claim or action.
PROCEDURE UPON APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION 12.1 A determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall be made in the specific case by one of the following methods, which shall be at the election of Indemnitee: (i) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board (ii) by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or (iii) by vote of the shareholders by ordinary resolution. The Company will promptly advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to any determination that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has been denied. If it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or Expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.
EXCEPTIONS TO RIGHT OF INDEMNIFICATION OR ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification or advancement of reasonable Expenses under this Agreement with respect to (i) any Proceeding initiated by such Indemnitee against the Indemnitor other than a proceeding commenced pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof, or (ii) any Proceeding for an accounting of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities of the Company in violation of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any similar provisions of any federal, state or local statute.
Procedure for Notification of Claim for Indemnification or Advancement (a) Indemnitee will notify the Company in writing of any Proceeding with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of written notice thereof. Indemnitee will include in the written notification to the Company a description of the nature of the Proceeding and the facts underlying the Proceeding and provide such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of such Proceeding. Indemnitee’s failure to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any obligation it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Company will not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights under this Agreement. The Secretary of the Company will, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification or advancement, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification or advancement.
Claims for Indemnity Whenever a claim shall arise for which any party shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder, the indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party in writing within sixty (60) days of the indemnified party's first receipt of notice of, or the indemnified party's obtaining actual knowledge of, such claim, and in any event within such shorter period as may be necessary for the indemnifying party or parties to take appropriate action to resist such claim. Such notice shall specify all facts known to the indemnified party giving rise to such indemnity rights and shall estimate (to the extent reasonably possible) the amount of potential liability arising therefrom. If the indemnifying party shall be duly notified of such dispute, the parties shall attempt to settle and compromise the same or may agree to submit the same to arbitration or, if unable or unwilling to do any of the foregoing, such dispute shall be settled by appropriate litigation, and any rights of indemnification established by reason of such settlement, compromise, arbitration or litigation shall promptly thereafter be paid and satisfied by those indemnifying parties obligated to make indemnification hereunder.
Claims for Indemnification In the event of the occurrence of any event which any Party asserts is an indemnifiable event pursuant to this Article 8, the Party claiming indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") shall provide prompt notice to the Party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party"), specifying in detail the facts and circumstances with respect to such claim and the basis for which indemnification is available hereunder. If such event involves the claim of any third party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control the defense of settlement of such claim; provided, however, that (a) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim at its own expense, (b) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) before entering into any settlement of such claim if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement, injunctive or other non-monetary relief would be imposed against the Indemnified Party, (c) the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control (but shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of), and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, and shall assume all expense with respect to the defense or settlement of any claim to the extent such claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party which, if successful, could materially interfere with the business, operations, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnified Party shall provide written notice to the Indemnifying Party of its election to assume control over the defense of such claim pursuant to this Section 8.4 if the Indemnifying Party is entitled but fails to assume control over the defense of a claim as provided in this Section 8.4. If the Indemnified Party assumes control of the defense of a claim as permitted hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall obtain the prior written approval of the Indemnifying Party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) before entering into any settlement of such claim if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement, injunctive or other non-monetary relief would be imposed against the Indemnifying Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 8, the Indemnifying Party shall, upon payment of such indemnity in full, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party with respect to the claim to which such indemnification relates.
