Environmental Indemnification Borrower shall protect, indemnify, save, defend, and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, actions, causes of action, costs or expenses whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and any and all claims, suits and judgments which any Indemnified Party may suffer, as a result of or with respect to: (a) any Environmental Claim relating to or arising from the Property; (b) the violation of any Environmental Law in connection with the Property; (c) any release, spill, or the presence of any Hazardous Materials affecting the Property; and (d) the presence at, in, on or under, or the release, escape, seepage, leakage, discharge or migration at or from, the Property of any Hazardous Materials, whether or not such condition was known or unknown to Borrower; provided that, in each case, Borrower shall be relieved of its obligation under this subsection if any of the matters referred to in clauses (a) through (d) above did not occur (but need not have been discovered) prior to (1) the foreclosure of the Security Instrument, (2) the delivery by Borrower to Lender or its designee of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure with respect to the Property, or (3) Lender’s or its designee’s taking possession and control of the Property after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. If any such action or other proceeding shall be brought against Lender, upon written notice from Borrower to Lender (given reasonably promptly following Lender’s notice to Borrower of such action or proceeding), Borrower shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, at Borrower’s expense, with counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender; provided, however, Lender may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to participate in such defense, but such participation shall not be deemed to give Lender a right to control such defense, which right Borrower expressly retains. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at Borrower’s expense if, in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and Borrower that would make such separate representation advisable. Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify an Indemnified Party for damage or loss resulting from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(i) Any breach of any representation or warranty of Borrower in Section 5.05.

Landlord Indemnification With respect to only those Hazardous Substances present on, in or under the Industrial Center as of the date of this Lease (the “Existing Hazardous Substances”), Landlord agrees to indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Tenant) and hold Tenant harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, liabilities, losses, suits, administrative proceedings and costs (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ and consultant fees and court costs), arising at any time during or after the Term of this Lease, to the extent arising from (1) any of the Existing Hazardous Substances and/or (2) the removal, investigation, monitoring or remediation of any of the Existing Hazardous Substances; provided, however, Landlord shall not indemnify, defend or hold Tenant harmless to the extent (x) Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities contributes to or has contributed to the presence of such Existing Hazardous Substances or Tenant and/or any of the Tenant Entities exacerbates the conditions caused by such Existing Hazardous Substances, or (y) Tenant and/or any of the Tenant Entities allows or permits persons over which Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities has control and/or for which Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities are legally responsible for, to cause such Existing Hazardous Substances to be present in, on, under, through or about any portion of the Premises, the Building or the Industrial Center, or does not take all reasonably appropriate actions to prevent such persons over which Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities has control and/or for which Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities are legally responsible from causing the presence of Existing Hazardous Substances in, on, under, through or about any portion of the Premises, the Building or the Industrial Center. Landlord’s obligations under this Paragraph 6.8 shall survive the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease.

Tenant’s Indemnification Tenant shall indemnify Landlord and Landlord’s managing agent from any and all claims, losses, liabilities, costs, expenses and damages, including attorneys’ fees, costs of testing and remediation costs, incurred by Landlord in connection with any breach by Tenant of its obligations under this Article 15.

Review of Indemnification Obligations (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Reviewing Party shall have determined (in a written opinion, in any case in which Independent Legal Counsel is the Reviewing Party) that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, exonerated or held harmless hereunder under applicable law, (A) the Company shall have no further obligation under Section 2(a) to make any payments to Indemnitee not made prior to such determination by such Reviewing Party and (B) the Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Indemnitee (who hereby agrees to reimburse the Company) for all Expenses theretofore paid in indemnifying, exonerating or holding harmless Indemnitee (within thirty (30) days after such determination); provided, however, that if Indemnitee has commenced or thereafter commences legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure a determination that Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified, exonerated or held harmless hereunder under applicable law, any determination made by any Reviewing Party that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder under applicable law shall not be binding and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any Expenses theretofore paid in indemnifying, exonerating or holding harmless Indemnitee until a final judicial determination is made with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or lapsed). Indemnitee’s obligation to reimburse the Company for any Expenses shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon.
(ii) Subject to Section 2(b)(iii) below, if the Reviewing Party shall not have made a determination within forty-five (45) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (A) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification or (B) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such 45-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement of Indemnitee to indemnification under this Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Claim.
Indemnification for Third Party Claims
(a) Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, its shareholders and Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against all third party Claims and Liabilities for injury, including death, and property damage caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance by any Project Party of the Transaction Documents to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller, the Contractor, any Subcontractor, and its respective employees or agents.
(b) Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its managers, officers, employees and agents, from and against all third party Claims and Liabilities for injury, including death, and property damage caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance of the Transaction Documents to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer, its employees or agents.
(c) Either Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the Party required to provide indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after the Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any Claim as to which indemnity may be sought hereunder, and the Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnifying Party (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) to assume the defense of any Claim or litigation resulting therefrom; provided that:
(i) counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of such Claim or litigation shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party;
(ii) the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense, except the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for its participation in such defense to the extent that the Indemnifying Party requests the Indemnified Party to participate in its own defense; and
(iii) the omission by the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that such omission results in a failure of actual notice to the Indemnifying Party and Indemnifying Party is damaged as a result of such failure to give notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party may not settle any Claim related to the indemnity being provided hereunder without the consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
(d) With regard to any Claim or Liability which is the result of the joint or concurrent fault or negligence of Seller and Buyer, the Parties agree to jointly defend any Claim with respect thereto that is based on such joint or concurrent fault or negligence of Buyer and Seller. Any Claim of contribution or indemnification between Buyer and Seller relating to such Claims shall be resolved on the basis of the percentage of fault or negligence and the Parties agree to reserve the determination of such percentage until after resolution of such Claim. Such pro rata share shall be based upon a final judicial determination of the Parties’ comparative fault or negligence or, in the absence of such determination, by mutual agreement.
(e) Nothing in this Section 26.1 is intended to allow any Indemnified Party to be indemnified from and against any third party Claims and Liabilities caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance of this Agreement to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by, arose out of, or were in any way incidental to or in connection with its own negligence or intentional misconduct.
LEGAL INDEMNIFICATION For the purposes of legal costs, it shall include those costs of an Association approved para-legal service.
(A) Subject to the other provisions of this Article, a member charged with and finally acquitted of a criminal or statutory offence because of acts done in the performance or attempted performance of his employment or duties, shall be indemnified for the necessary and reasonable legal costs incurred in the defence of such charges.
(B) Members shall not be indemnified for legal costs arising from the actions or omissions of members acting in their capacity as private citizens. For the purpose of Clause 29.1 (A) a Member: shall be deemed to have been "Finally Acquitted", where charges are withdrawn or where he is discharged following a preliminary inquiry; and shall be deemed not to have been "Finally Acquitted" where the member is given an absolute or conditional discharge or where, if as a result of charges laid he is subsequently found guilty of, or pleads guilty to, other charges arising out of the same incident or incidents.
29.2 When a member is a defendant in a civil action for damages because of acts done in the course of his employment or duties he shall be indemnified for the necessary and reasonable legal costs incurred in the defence of such an action in the following circumstances only:
(i) where the Board is not joined in the action as a party pursuant to s. 50 of the Police Services Act, and the Board does not defend the action on behalf of itself and the member as joint tortfeasors at the Board's sole expense;
(ii) where the Board is joined as a party or elects to defend the action, but the Solicitor retained on behalf of the Board and the member is of the view that it would be improper for him to act for both the Board and the member in that action.
29.3 Where during an inquest under the Coroner's Act a member's conduct is called into question because of acts done in the performance of his duties, the member shall be indemnified for any necessary and reasonable legal costs directly arising from the protection of the member's interest at such inquiry, but only if:
(i) the Chief of Police or the Board does not provide counsel to represent the York Regional Police, at the Board's expense; or
(ii) in the opinion of counsel retained by the Chief of Police or the Board to represent the York Regional Police, it would be improper for him to represent the member and the Chief and/or the Board before that inquiry.
29.4 To qualify for financial assistance under 29.1, 29.2 or 29.3, the member shall obtain the Board's approval of counsel to be retained by the member by application to the Board through the Chief. The Board's approval of counsel shall not be withheld unreasonably.
29.5 The Board will not consider any application for financial assistance which relates to the legal representation of a member in connection with a grievance or complaint made under the provisions of the Police Services Act, 1990 of this Collective Agreement or for the legal defence of a member resulting from a discipline charge made under the Police Services Act, 1990, Regulations made under that Act and all amendments thereto.
29.6 Where an investigation is commenced under Part VII of the Police Services Act and it appears to the Chief of Police that a member requires legal counsel in responding to the investigation, the Chief of Police may arrange for legal counsel to provide counsel to the member in connection with the investigation of such terms as the Chief considers appropriate. As soon as practicable, the Chief shall bring his action and his recommendation to the attention of the Board who may approve or alter the terms of retention of such legal counsel or the Chief's recommendation in respect thereof. Neither the Board nor the Chief shall provide legal counsel after the completion of the investigation or the laying of information(s), as Article 29 of the Civilian Collective Agreement is intended to govern such matters.
29.7 All sections under Article 29 (Legal Indemnification) are subject to review and re- negotiation by either the Board or the Association when the Regulations of the Police Services Act are proclaimed in force. If changes cannot be negotiated then either party reserves the right to submit the terms of this Article to arbitration.
29.8 A member who becomes involved in a matter which may entitle him/her to legal indemnification under this clause is entitled to receive funds from the Board for a retainer and/or for interim payment of legal costs as reasonably requested by the member’s counsel to a maximum of $5,000.00 provided the member undertakes to indemnify the Board for such funds advanced to him if the member is finally determined not to be eligible for indemnification in accordance with this Agreement.
