Indemnification by Company The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Manager, the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Manager and each person who controls the Manager within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Shares as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in the Base Prospectus, any Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or result from or relate to any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Manager specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have.
Indemnification by Us We shall defend You against any claim, demand, suit, or proceeding (“Claim”) made or brought against You by a third party alleging that the use of the Services as permitted hereunder infringes or misappropriates the intellectual property rights of a third party, and shall indemnify You for any damages finally awarded against, and for reasonable attorney fees incurred by, You in connection with any such Claim; provided, that You (a) promptly give Us written notice of the Claim; (b) give Us sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim (provided that We may not settle any Claim unless the settlement unconditionally releases You of all liability and You may not make any admissions or settlements without Our prior written consent); (c) provide to Us all reasonable assistance, at Our expense; and (d) provided that such infringement or misappropriation of any third party's intellectual property rights is not resulting from: (i) Your or Your Users misuse of the Services or the Site; (ii) Your use of the Services together with a Third Party Application or integration; or (iii) from non-compliance by You or Your Users of the terms and conditions contained herein.

The foregoing limitation in this Section 7.3(b) shall not apply to any claim arising under Section 7.3(a)(ii) or any claim arising from the Fraud of the Buyer.
(c) The Buyer shall not be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Seller Indemnitees against, or reimburse the Seller Indemnitees for, any Liabilities pursuant to Section 7.3(a)(i) in a cumulative aggregate amount exceeding the Purchase Price.

(d) The representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and obligations of Buyer and any Seller Indemnitee’s right to indemnification with respect thereto shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of Seller Indemnitees (including by any of their respective Representatives) or by reason of the fact that such Seller Indemnitee or any of such Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate, (ii) the waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant, agreement or obligation or (iii) the Closing.
Indemnification by You 7.1.1 You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriter, the Trust and each of its Trustees, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls the Trust within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and individually the “Indemnified Party” for purposes of this Section 7) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with your written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or expenses (including the reasonable costs of investigating or defending any alleged loss, claim, damage, liability or expense and reasonable legal counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) (collectively, “Losses”), to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute or regulation, or at common law or otherwise, insofar as such Losses are related to the sale or acquisition of shares of the Trust or the Contracts and
7.1.1.1 arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or alleged untrue statements of any material fact contained in a Disclosure Document for the Contracts or in the Contracts themselves or in sales literature generated or approved by you on behalf of the Contracts or Accounts (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing) (collectively, “Company Documents” for the purposes of this Section 7), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided that this indemnity shall not apply as to any Indemnified Party if such statement or omission or such alleged statement or omission was made in reliance upon and was accurately derived from written information furnished to you by or on behalf of the Trust for use in Company Documents or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Contracts or Trust shares; or
7.1.1.2 arise out of or result from statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in and accurately derived from Trust Documents as defined below in Section 7.2) or wrongful conduct of you or persons under your control, with respect to the sale or acquisition of the Contracts or Trust shares; or
7.1.1.3 arise out of or result from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in Trust Documents as defined below in Section 7.2 or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and accurately derived from written information furnished to the Trust by or on behalf of you; or
7.1.1.4 arise out of or result from any failure by you to provide the services or furnish the materials required under the terms of this Agreement;
7.1.1.5 arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by you in this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by you; or
7.1.1.6 arise out of or result from a Contract failing to be considered a life insurance policy or an annuity Contract, whichever is appropriate, under applicable provisions of the Code thereby depriving the Trust of its compliance with Section 817(h) of the Code.
7.1.2 You shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any Losses to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of such Indemnified Party’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of such Indemnified Party’s duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party’s reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement or to the Trust or Underwriter, whichever is applicable. You shall also not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Indemnified Party shall have notified you in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after such Indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify you of any such claim shall not relieve you from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Parties, you shall be entitled to participate, at your own expense, in the defense of such action. Unless the Indemnified Party releases you from any further obligations under this Section 7.1, you also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the action. After notice from you to such party of your election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and you will not be liable to such party under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such party independently in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.
7.1.3 The Indemnified Parties will promptly notify you of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against them in connection with the issuance or sale of the Trust shares or the Contracts or the operation of the Trust.
Indemnification by Buyers (a) Subject to this Article 11, Buyers, from and after Closing, shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers, their Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, equity holders, managers, members, principals, attorneys, agents, employees or other representatives (collectively, “Sellers Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses that such Sellers Indemnified Party incurs as a result of, or with respect to (i) the breach of any of the representations or warranties made by Buyers in this Agreement, (ii) any breach or non-fulfillment of any of the covenants or other agreements made by Buyers in this Agreement, (iii) any of the Assumed Liabilities, and (iv) any fraud, willful misconduct or criminal acts of Buyers or their officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees, agents and independent contractors;
(b) Buyers will have no obligation to indemnify Sellers Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(i) in respect of Indemnifiable Losses arising from the breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty described therein unless the aggregate amount of all such Indemnifiable Losses incurred or suffered by Sellers Indemnified Parties exceeds $700,000, in which event the Sellers Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to seek indemnification under Sections 11.2(a)(i) for all claims over $350,000; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation will not apply to claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(i) in respect of breaches of, or inaccuracies in, representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.1 (Organization; Capacity) or Section 5.2 (Authority; Noncontravention) (collectively, “Buyers Fundamental Representations”). For avoidance of doubt, claims for indemnification pursuant to Sections 11.2(a)(ii), (iii) and (iv) are not subject to the monetary limitation set forth in this Section 11.2(b); and
(c) Buyers’ aggregate liability in respect of claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(i) and (ii) will not exceed an amount equal to the 20% Cap for its breach of representations, warranties and covenants other than the Buyers Fundamental Representations. Buyer’s aggregate liability in respect of claims for indemnification under this Agreement will not exceed the Purchase Price Cap, except that Buyers’ aggregate liability in respect of claims pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(iii) shall not be subject to the 20% Cap or the Purchase Price Cap.
(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, obligations of Buyer under Section 10.1, 10.2 and Section 10.13 shall not be subject to the monetary limitation set forth in Section 11.2(b) or the 20% Cap or the Purchase Price Cap in Section 11.2(c).
Indemnification by Sellers From and after the Closing Date, except with respect to Taxes and Tax matters (indemnification claims in respect of which may be brought solely under Article IX), and subject to the provisions of this Article VIII (including the limitations set forth in Section 8.5), each Seller, severally (in proportion to its Seller Proportion, except to the extent subject to the proviso to this Section 8.2) but not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless
(a) the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses actually incurred by the Company Indemnified Parties to the extent resulting from:
(i) any breach of a Fundamental Representation by the Company;
(ii) any breach of any other representation or warranty by the Company contained in Article IV;
(iii) any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to be performed by the Company prior to Closing; or
(iv) the matters set forth in Section 8.2(a)(iv) of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule.
(b) the Purchaser and its Affiliates (other than the Company Indemnified Parties) (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties” and together with the Company Indemnified Parties, the “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses actually incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to the extent resulting from:
(i) any breach of a Fundamental Representation by such Seller;
(ii) any breach of any other representation or warranty by such Seller contained in Section 3.1;
(iii) any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to be performed by such Seller; or
(iv) Seller Transaction Expenses to the extent they were incurred prior to the Closing and were not considered in calculating the Equity Value or the Distribution Amount. provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any indemnifiable Losses incurred by the Company Indemnified Parties or the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to the extent resulting from the breach of any representation or warranty made by a Seller or from the breach of a covenant or agreement made by a Seller shall be indemnified solely by the breaching Seller in accordance with this Article VIII, and not by any other Seller; provided further, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the foregoing indemnification with respect to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties is intended to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties only for Losses suffered or incurred by them directly and is not intended to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties with respect to Losses suffered by a Company Indemnified Party or that they may suffer or incur solely by virtue of their direct or indirect equity ownership in a Company Indemnified Party.
Indemnification by Seller (a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 7.1(b), 7.4 and 7.5 below, Seller shall indemnify Purchaser and its Affiliates, and each of their respective shareholders, officers, directors, employees and representatives (each a “Purchaser Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Purchaser Indemnitee harmless from, any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, payments and obligations, and all expenses, including without limitation reasonable legal fees (collectively “Losses”), incurred, suffered, sustained or required to be paid, directly or indirectly, by, or sought to be imposed upon, such Purchaser Indemnitee resulting from, related to or arising out of (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties made by Seller in or pursuant to this Agreement or the agreements or documents delivered by Seller pursuant to Sections 5.1(b)(i), (iii), (iv), (v), (viii), and (ix); provided, however, that (ix) shall be limited to documents that are necessary to convey to Purchaser title to the Purchased Assets; (ii) any breach of any of the covenants made by Seller in or pursuant to this Agreement (including Section 5.1(b)(ii)) or the agreements or documents delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 5.1(b)(iii), (iv), (v), (viii) and (ix); provided, however, that (ix) shall be limited to documents that are necessary to convey to Purchaser title to the Purchased Assets; (iii) the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities, including with respect to Taxes and bulk sales laws; and (iv) the conduct of the Business prior to the Closing Date. The lack of indemnity under this Section 7.1(a) for breaches shall not limit the remedies that may be available to Purchaser under the Noncompetition Agreement.
(b) Each Purchaser Indemnitee shall promptly give written notice to Seller of the assertion by any Person of any claim, action, suit or proceeding with respect to which Seller is obligated to provide indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that the rights of a Purchaser Indemnitee to be indemnified hereunder shall only be affected by the failure to give such notice if and to the extent such failure prejudices Seller in the defense of such third party claim. Amounts due with respect to Losses covered by this Section 7.1 shall be paid promptly after delivery of reasonably documented written notice of the amount of Losses incurred, and if Seller disputes the validity of the notice or the amounts of the Losses and such dispute is ultimately resolved wholly or partially in favor of the Purchaser Indemnitee, Seller shall promptly pay the amount found owing. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to contest, defend or litigate, and to retain counsel of its choice in connection with, any claim, action, suit or proceeding by any third party alleged or asserted against a Purchaser Indemnitee that is subject to indemnification by Seller hereunder, and the cost and expense thereof shall be subject to the indemnification obligations and limitations of Seller hereunder; provided, that each Purchaser Indemnitee shall have the right and option to participate in, but not control, the defense of such action at its own expense and with its own counsel; and provided, further, that, (i) if Seller elects not to defend any such action or (ii) if a Purchaser Indemnitee shall reasonably believe that it has defenses not available to Seller and if counsel to Purchaser shall advise in a written opinion that common representation is not appropriate, then such Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled, through counsel of its choice, but at Seller’s expense (should indemnification be applicable), to participate in the defense of such action. Neither Seller, on the one hand, nor any Purchaser Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be entitled to settle or compromise any such claim, action, suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Indemnification by Owner To the fullest extent permitted by law, Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer, Engineer’s officers, directors, partners, agents, employees, and Consultants from and against any and all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals, and all court, arbitration, or other dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to the Project, provided that any such claim, cost, loss, or damage is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease, or death or to injury to or destruction of tangible property (other than the Work itself), including the loss of use resulting therefrom, but only to the extent caused by any negligent act or omission of Owner or Owner’s officers, directors, partners, agents, consultants, or employees, or others retained by or under contract to the Owner with respect to this Agreement or to the Project.
Indemnification by Parent Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, Parent shall, and shall cause the other members of the Parent Group to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless SpinCo, each member of the SpinCo Group and each of their respective past, present and future directors, officers, employees or agents, in each case in their respective capacities as such, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “SpinCo Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Liabilities of the SpinCo Indemnitees relating to, arising out of or resulting from, directly or indirectly, any of the following items (without duplication):
(a) any Parent Liability;
(b) any failure of Parent, any other member of the Parent Group or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any Parent Liabilities in accordance with their terms, whether prior to, on or after the Effective Time;
(c) any breach by Parent or any other member of the Parent Group of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements;
(d) except to the extent it relates to a SpinCo Liability, any guarantee, indemnification or contribution obligation, surety bond or other credit support agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding for the benefit of any member of the Parent Group by any member of the SpinCo Group that survives following the Distribution; and
(e) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, with respect to statements made explicitly in Parent’s name in the Form 10, the Information Statement (as amended or supplemented if SpinCo shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any other Disclosure Document; it being agreed that the statements set forth on Schedule 4.3(e) shall be the only statements made explicitly in Parent’s name in the Form 10, the Information Statement or any other Disclosure Document, and all other information contained in the Form 10, the Information Statement or any other Disclosure Document shall be deemed to be information supplied by SpinCo.
Indemnification by Purchaser Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller, its affiliates and its and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, representatives and advisors (the “Seller Indemnitees”) harmless from and shall reimburse the applicable Seller Indemnitee for any Losses suffered or incurred by any Seller Indemnitee which result from:
(a) Any material breach of a representation or warranty by Purchaser, or non-fulfillment of any covenant or obligation of Purchaser contained in this Agreement; and
(b) Litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions or decrees, the basis for which occurred after the Agreement Date, resulting from any of the items described in Section 11.02(a) above; provided, however, that the applicable Seller Indemnitee has taken all commercially reasonable and appropriate actions to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses as reasonably requested by Purchaser, which such failure of mitigation shall not relieve Purchaser of its indemnification obligations in this Section 11.02 but may affect the amount of such obligation; and further provided, that any Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnitee pursuant to any attempt to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses shall be reimbursed by Purchaser as part of its indemnification obligations in this Section 11.02. Seller shall notify Purchaser promptly after receiving written notice of the assertion of any litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions, decrees or any third party claims subject to indemnification under this Agreement (each, a “Third Party Claim”). Upon receipt of such notice of a Third Party Claim, Purchaser shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim using counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Seller Indemnitee, but may not enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. A Seller Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate counsel and to otherwise separately defend itself but shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any exercise of such rights by a Seller Indemnitee shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations and liabilities under this Section 11.02 or any other provision of this Agreement. With respect to any Third Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Agreement, the applicable Seller Indemnitee shall be required to cooperate in good faith with Purchaser to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Third-Party Claim.
