NON-EXCLUSIVITY; SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS; INSURANCE; SUBROGATION (a) The rights of Indemnitee as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Charter, the Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any Proceeding (regardless of when such Proceeding is first threatened, commenced or completed) or claim, issue or matter therein arising out of, or related to, any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in Indemnitee’s Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in applicable law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration rights or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Charter, the Bylaws or this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.
(b) The DGCL, the Charter and the Bylaws permit the Company to purchase and maintain insurance or furnish similar protection or make other arrangements including, but not limited to, providing a trust fund, letter of credit, or surety bond (“Indemnification Arrangements”) on behalf of Indemnitee against any liability asserted against Indemnitee or incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee or in such capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or arising out of Indemnitee’s status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify Indemnitee against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement or under the DGCL, as it may then be in effect. The purchase, establishment, and maintenance of any such Indemnification Arrangement shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and obligations of the Company or of Indemnitee under this Agreement except as expressly provided herein, and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and Indemnitee shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and obligations of the Company or the other party or parties thereto under any such Indemnification Arrangement.
(c) To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, trustees, partners, managers, managing members, fiduciaries, employees, or agents of the Company or of any other Enterprise which such person serves at the request of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer, trustee, partner, managers, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent under such policy or policies. If, at the time the Company receives notice from any source of a Proceeding as to which Indemnitee is a party or a participant (as a witness, deponent or otherwise), the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of such Proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
(d) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.
(e) The Company’s obligation to indemnify, hold harmless, exonerate or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other Enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payments or advancement of expenses from such Enterprise. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary except for Section 27, (i) Indemnitee shall have no obligation to reduce, offset, allocate, pursue or apportion any indemnification, hold harmless, exoneration, advancement, contribution or insurance coverage among multiple parties possessing such duties to Indemnitee prior to the Company’s satisfaction and performance of all its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) the Company shall perform fully its obligations under this Agreement without regard to whether Indemnitee holds, may pursue or has pursued any indemnification, advancement, hold harmless, exoneration, contribution or insurance coverage rights against any person or entity other than the Company.
Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification; Subrogation (a) The rights of indemnification as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the By-laws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders, a resolution of directors of the Company, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in the DGCL, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the Certificate of Incorporation, By-laws and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.
(b) To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees, or agents or fiduciaries of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that such person serves at the request of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary under such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
(c) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.
(d) The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.
(e) The Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise.
Geographic Area and Sector Specific Allowances, Conditions and Exceptions The following allowances and conditions shall apply where relevant. Where the Employer does work which falls under the following headings, the Employer agrees to pay and observe the relevant respective conditions and/or exceptions set out below in each case.
Survival; Limitations (a) Except to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement or any other Separation Agreement, all covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in the Separation Agreements shall survive each of the Offering and a Spin-Off. The limitation period applicable to any proceeding in respect of such covenants and agreements shall be as prescribed by applicable Law. To the extent the limitation period applicable to any proceeding in respect of such covenants and agreements is governed by the Laws of the Province of Ontario, the limitation period shall be solely as prescribed in sections 15-17 of the Limitations Act, 2002 and any other limitation period in respect of such proceeding (including that provided for in section 4 of the Limitations Act, 2002) is extended accordingly. The rights and obligations of ATS, Photowatt and each of their respective Indemnified Persons under this Agreement shall survive the direct or indirect sale, assignment or other transfer by any Party of any Assets or Liabilities.
(b) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement shall be net of any Tax Benefit and any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from any third Person (including amounts actually recovered under insurance policies) with respect to such Losses. Any Indemnifying Party hereunder shall be subrogated to the rights of the Indemnified Party upon payment in full of the amount of the relevant indemnifiable Losses. An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provision hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto. If any Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third Person in respect of Losses for which indemnification is provided in this Agreement after the full amount of such indemnifiable Losses has been paid by an Indemnifying Party or after an Indemnifying Party has made a partial payment of such indemnifiable Losses and the amount received from the third Person exceeds the remaining unpaid balance of such indemnifiable Losses, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party the excess, if any, of (X) the sum of the amount theretofore paid by such Indemnifying Party in respect of such indemnifiable Losses plus the amount received from the third Person in respect thereof, over (Y) the full amount of such indemnifiable Losses.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 8, the initial presumption shall be that there is no insurance coverage for any such Losses, and the Indemnifying Party shall, upon request by the Indemnified Party, fully indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against any and all such Losses. Once the Indemnifying Party has discharged this obligation to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party may request that the Indemnified Party pursue insurance coverage from one or more insurers in connection with such Losses. If so requested, the Indemnified Party shall pursue insurance coverage, including, if necessary, the filing of coverage litigation, all of which shall be at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnifying Party shall pay directly or promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party for all such costs and expenses, as directed by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall retain full and exclusive control of all such matters (including the settlement of underlying covered claims and/or coverage claims against insurers), and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select counsel with the concurrence of Indemnifying Party, which concurrence shall not be withheld unreasonably. The net proceeds of any insurance recovery (after deducting any costs and expenses that have not yet been paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party) shall be paid to the Indemnifying Party. At all times, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party’s insurers and/or with the Indemnified Party in the pursuit of insurance coverage, as and when reasonably requested to do so by the Indemnified Party. It is not the intent of this Section 8.5(c) to absolve the Indemnifying Party of any responsibility to the Indemnified Party for those Losses in connection with which the Indemnified Party actually secures insurance coverage, but to allocate the costs of pursuing such coverage to the Indemnifying Party and to provide the Indemnified Party with a full, interim indemnity from the Indemnifying Party until such time as the extent of insurance coverage is determined and is obtained. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.5(c), if the Indemnified Party (in its absolute and sole discretion) determines that it is necessary to do so, the Indemnified Party may pursue insurance coverage for the benefit of the Indemnified Party before the Indemnifying Party has fully discharged its obligations to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement. In such event, the Indemnified Party may unilaterally take any steps it determines are necessary to preserve such insurance coverage, including tendering the defense of any claim or suit to an insurer or insurers of the Indemnified Party if the Indemnified Party concludes that such action may be required by the relevant insurance policy or policies. Any such actions by the Indemnified Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its obligations to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement, including the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to pay directly or reimburse the Indemnified Party for costs and expenses.
(d) Any indemnification payment made under this Agreement shall be characterized for Tax purposes as a contribution or distribution or payment of an assumed or retained liability, as applicable.
(e) ATS’ and Photowatt’s indemnity obligations under Sections 8.2 and 8.3 shall be reduced to reflect any Tax Benefit realized, in the year in which the indemnity payment is required to be made or in any prior year, by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates. To the extent that the claim with respect to which an indemnity obligation arises has not given rise to a Tax Benefit in prior year or in the year in which the indemnity payment is to be made, but gives rise to a Tax Benefit in a later year, the Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such Tax Benefit. For purposes of determining the amount of any payment due to an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.5(e), ATS and Photowatt and their respective Affiliates shall be deemed to use all other deductions, amortizations, exclusions from income or other allowances (to the extent that such deductions, amortizations, exclusions from income or other allowances are entitled to be used under applicable tax law) prior to the use of any Tax Benefits in respect of which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to pay the Indemnified Party hereunder.
(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Separation Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any Party or any of its Group members be liable to the other Party or any other Person under this Agreement or any other Separation Agreement for, and each Party (on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and other Indemnified Persons) hereby releases the other Party from all claims for, special, collateral, indirect, consequential, incidental or punitive damages (including lost profits or savings), however caused and on any theory of liability (including negligence), even if advised of their possible existence; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations shall not limit either Party’s indemnification obligations as set forth in Article 8 hereof in respect of any Third Party Claim.
