In furtherance of the foregoing, Seller agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in connection with Purchaser's efforts to obtain Purchaser Financing, as defined in Section 5.07. Seller's cooperation shall include the negotiation and execution of a consent with the lenders with respect to the Operative Agreements, which consent shall include providing such lenders with rights to cure a Purchaser default under the Operative Agreements; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated, in connection with such cooperation or consent, to take any action or enter into any agreement that would have any adverse effect on Seller or any of its rights or benefits under this Agreement or the Operative Agreements.

In entering into this Agreement, Buyer has relied upon its own investigation and analysis as well as the representations and warranties of Sellers contained in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and Buyer (a) acknowledges that none of Sellers, the Companies or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives makes or has made any representation or warranty, either express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any of the information provided or made available to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives, and (b) agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that neither Sellers, the Companies nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives on any basis (including, without limitation, in contract or tort, under federal or state securities laws or otherwise) based upon any information provided or made available, or statements made, to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives (or any omissions therefrom), except in the case of clauses (a) and (b) as and only to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement with respect to the representations and warranties of Sellers in Article III and subject to the limitations and restrictions contained in this Agreement.
Due Diligence Investigation Pubco shall be reasonably satisfied with the results of its due diligence investigation of the Company in its sole and absolute discretion.
Lost Shareholder Due Diligence Searches and Servicing The Trust hereby acknowledges that USBFS has an arrangement with an outside vendor to conduct lost shareholder searches required by Rule 17Ad-17 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Costs associated with such searches will be passed through to the Trust as an out-of-pocket expense in accordance with the fee schedule set forth in Exhibit C hereto. If a shareholder remains lost and the shareholder’s account unresolved after completion of the mandatory Rule 17Ad-17 search, the Trust hereby authorizes vendor to enter, at its discretion, into fee sharing arrangements with the lost shareholder (or such lost shareholder’s representative or executor) to conduct a more in-depth search in order to locate the lost shareholder before the shareholder’s assets escheat to the applicable state. The Trust hereby acknowledges that USBFS is not a party to these arrangements and does not receive any revenue sharing or other fees relating to these arrangements. Furthermore, the Trust hereby acknowledges that vendor may receive up to 35% of the lost shareholder’s assets as compensation for its efforts in locating the lost shareholder.
Indemnification by the Shareholders In connection with any registration statement in which a Shareholder is participating, each such Shareholder will furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits with respect to such Shareholder as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any registration statement or prospectus covering the Registrable Securities of such Shareholder and to the extent permitted by law agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 0000 Xxx) the Company, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising out of or based upon any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in the registration statement or prospectus or preliminary prospectus (in the case of the prospectus or preliminary prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is made in reliance on and in conformity with the information or affidavit with respect to such Shareholder so furnished in writing by such Shareholder expressly for use in the registration statement or prospectus; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Shareholders and the liability of each such Shareholder shall be in proportion to and limited to the net amount received by such Shareholder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.05 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of such seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Company and the holders of the Registrable Securities hereby acknowledge and agree that, unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by such holders, the only information furnished or to be furnished to the Company for use in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities or in any amendment, supplement or preliminary materials associated therewith are statements specifically relating to (a) transactions or the relationship between such holder and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, (b) the beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock by such holder and its Affiliates, (c) the name and address of such holder and (d) any additional information about such holder or the plan of distribution (other than for an underwritten offering) required by law or regulation to be disclosed in any such document.
Indemnification by the Buyer The Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller against and in respect of any loss, damage, deficiency, cost or expense (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any breach by the Buyer of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Buyer contained in this Agreement.
Indemnification by the Shareholder Each Shareholder will, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in subdivision (a) of this Section 6) the Company, each director and officer of the Company, and each other Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, with respect to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact from such Registration Statement, any Prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Shareholder for use in the preparation of such Registration Statement or amendment thereto or Prospectus or supplement thereto; provided, however, that the Shareholder shall not be liable to the extent that the losses, liabilities or expenses arise out of or are based upon (i) the use by the Company of any Prospectus after such time as the obligation of the Company to keep the same effective and current has expired or (ii) the use by the Company of any Prospectus after such time as the Shareholder has advised the Company in writing that the filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus is required with respect to any information contained in such Registration Statement or Prospectus concerning the Shareholder, except such Registration Statement as so amended or such Prospectus as so supplemented. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, or any such director, officer, or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Shareholder. In no event shall the liability of any Shareholder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Shareholder from the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
Indemnification by the Purchasers Each of the Purchasers, severally and jointly, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless, without duplication, each Seller and each of the Sellers’ Affiliates, and each of their respective officers, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”), from and against all Losses that such Seller Indemnified Party may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to that, directly or indirectly, arise out of or relate to (a) any Assumed Servicing Liability, (b) any failure by the Purchasers to perform their Serviced Duties and other obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof or any other breach or violation by the Purchasers of the terms hereof, (c) any action or omission of the Purchasers or their Affiliates or their agents (including such agents appointed pursuant to Section 3.6 hereof) with respect to any Serviced Appointment, whether pursuant hereto or to a Serviced Corporate Trust Contract or otherwise, or (d) the Sellers’ role as backup advancing agent with respect to any Corporate Trust Contract pursuant to clause (c) of the definition of “Retained Duty” (except to the extent the Sellers negligently failed to make a backup advance as required pursuant to such Retained Duty); provided, however, that the Purchasers shall not be required to indemnify any Seller for any matter which would require indemnification of the Purchasers by any Seller under Section 8.2.
