Indemnification for Taxes (a) Seller Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates, including, after the Closing, the Company (each herein sometimes referred to as an “Indemnified Taxpayer”), against, and protect, save and hold harmless each Indemnified Taxpayer from, any and all Damages directly resulting from:
(i) any Taxes of the Company allocable to any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date or, as provided in Section 7.3(b), allocable to the pre-Closing portion of any period that begins on or before and ends after the Closing Date;
(ii) any Taxes of any other Person imposed on the Company (or Buyer as a result of the Company being a disregarded entity post-Closing) (A) as a result of any written Tax sharing or Tax allocation agreement in effect on or prior to the Closing Date, (B) as a transferee or successor, or otherwise under applicable Legal Requirements (which Taxes described in this clause (B) relate to an event or transaction occurring on or prior to the Closing Date), or (C) by reason of being a member, partner or similar owner of an equity interest in a partnership, limited liability company or other entity classified as a partnership pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3 or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Legal Requirements;
(iii) the portion of any Transfer Taxes that are the responsibility of Sellers pursuant to Section 7.2(d); or
(iv) any breach of or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement relating to Taxes or Tax Returns.
(i) If a written claim is made by any Tax Authority that, if successful, would result in the indemnification of an Indemnified Taxpayer, the Indemnified Taxpayer shall promptly notify Seller Representative in writing of such fact; provided that any failure to give such notice will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Taxpayer except to the extent the rights of the indemnifying party are actually materially prejudiced.
(ii) Seller Representative shall have the right to defend against any claim under subsection (b)(i) at Sellers’ expense and with counsel of Seller Representative’s choice so long as (A) Buyer is kept reasonably informed of the status and progress of such claim and related proceedings, (B) Buyer and Bxxxx’s counsel are allowed to participate at Bxxxx’s expense in such claim and related proceedings, (C) Seller Representative’s counsel with respect to such claim is approved by Buyer in its reasonable discretion and Seller Representative conducts the defense of the claim actively and diligently, and (D) if the applicable Indemnified Taxpayer is requested to pay the Tax claimed and sue for a refund, and if so requested by Bxxxx, Sellers shall have advanced to such Indemnified Taxpayer, on an interest free basis, the full amount such Indemnified Taxpayer is requested to pay. If any of the conditions in clauses (A) through (D) above is or becomes unsatisfied, then (x) Buyer and the applicable Indemnified Taxpayer may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the claim in any manner it may deem appropriate (and neither Buyer nor any Indemnified Taxpayer need consult with, or obtain any consent from, Sellers or Seller Representative in connection therewith), (y) Sellers will reimburse Buyer and the Indemnified Taxpayer promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the claim (including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’ and experts’ fees and disbursements) and (z) Sellers will remain responsible for any Damages Buyer or any other Indemnified Taxpayer may suffer to the fullest extent provided in this Section 7.2.
(iii) Seller Representative shall not be entitled to settle or to contest any claim relating to Taxes without the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, if, in the good faith judgment of Buyer, the settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the claim would reasonably be expected to adversely affect any Indemnified Taxpayer.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnification obligations of the Seller Parties under this Article VI shall survive the Closing until sixty (60) days following the end of the applicable statutes of limitations. With respect to any indemnification obligation for any Tax for which a Tax Authority asserts a claim within ninety (90) days before the end of the applicable statute of limitations, an Indemnified Taxpayer shall be treated as having provided timely notice to such Seller Party by providing written notice to Seller Representative on or before the ninetieth (90th) day after the Indemnified Taxpayer’s receipt of a written assertion of the claim by the Tax Authority.
(d) Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall divide evenly the financial responsibility for all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”), and Seller Representative will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes, and, if required by applicable Legal Requirements, Buyer will, and will cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.
Indemnity for Taxes (a) All payments made by the Issuer to the Funding Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers under this Note Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future stamp or similar taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Official Body, excluding (i) taxes that would not have been imposed if the Affected Party had timely complied with the requirements of Section 8.03(b), and (ii) taxes imposed on the net income of the Funding Agent or any other Affected Party, in each case imposed by any jurisdiction under the laws of which the Funding Agent or such Affected Party is organized or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, collectively or individually, “Taxes”). If any such Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Funding Agent or any Affected Party hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Funding Agent or such Affected Party shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Funding Agent or such Affected Party (after payment of all Taxes) all amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Note Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Issuer shall indemnify the Funding Agent or any such Affected Party for the full amount of any such Taxes on the first Settlement Date which is not less than ten (10) days after the date of written demand therefor by the Funding Agent.
(b) Each Affected Party that is a Non-United States Person shall:
(i) deliver to the Issuer and the Funding Agent two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8 BEN or Form W-8 ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be;
(ii) deliver to the Issuer and the Funding Agent two (2) further copies of any such form or certification on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Issuer; and
(iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and complete such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Issuer or the Funding Agent; unless, in any such case, an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which, regardless of the identity of the Affected Party, renders all such forms inapplicable or which, regardless of the identity of the Affected Party, would prevent such Affected Party from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it, and such Affected Party so advises the Issuer and the Funding Agent. Each such Affected Party so organized shall certify in the case of an IRS Form W-8 BEN or IRS Form W-8 ECI (or successor applicable form), that it is entitled to receive payments under this Note Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each Affected Party which is a Non-United States Person represents and warrants to the Issuer and the Funding Agent that, as of the date of this Note Purchase Agreement (or the date such Person otherwise becomes an Affected Party, as the case may be), (i) it is entitled to receive all payments hereunder without deduction or withholding for or on account of any United States federal Taxes and (ii) it is permitted to take the actions described in the preceding sentence under the laws and any applicable double taxation treaties of the jurisdiction of its head office or any booking office used in connection with this Note Purchase Agreement. Each Affected Party which is a Non-United States Person further agrees that, to the extent any form claiming complete or partial exemption from withholding and deduction of United States federal Taxes delivered under this clause (b) is found to be incomplete or incorrect in any material respect, such Affected Party shall (to the extent it is permitted to do so under the laws and any double taxation treaties of the United States, the jurisdiction of its organization and the jurisdictions in which its relevant booking offices are located) execute and deliver to each of the Funding Agent and the Issuer a complete and correct replacement form.
Indemnification for Additional Expenses Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall reimburse Indemnitee for, or advance to Indemnitee, within five business days of such request accompanied by supporting documentation for specific Expenses to be reimbursed or advanced, any and all actual and reasonable Expenses paid or incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Claim made, instituted or conducted by Indemnitee for (a) indemnification or reimbursement or advance payment of Expenses by the Company under any provision of this Agreement, or under any other agreement or provision of the Constituent Documents now or hereafter in effect relating to Indemnifiable Claims, and/or (b) recovery under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company; provided, however, if it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to such indemnification, reimbursement, advance or insurance recovery, as the case may be, then the Indemnitee shall be obligated to repay any such Expenses to the Company; provided further, that, regardless in each case of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, reimbursement, advance or insurance recovery, as the case may be, Indemnitee shall return, without interest, any such advance of Expenses (or portion thereof) which remains unspent at the final disposition of the Claim to which the advance related.
Expenses; Documentary Taxes; Indemnification (a) Whether or not the Effective Date shall have occurred, the Borrower agrees to pay (i) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, (A) including reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm acting as special counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the due diligence, preparation, execution and delivery of any Credit Document, any waiver or consent thereunder or any amendment hereof or any Default or alleged Default hereunder and (B) in connection with the administration and syndication (including, without limitation, printing and distribution) of the credit facility provided hereby and (ii) if an Event of Default occurs, all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Bank, including fees and disbursements of counsel (including without limitation the reasonably allocated costs of internal counsel if the Borrower shall not also be responsible for the costs of other counsel for such Person) in connection with such Event of Default and collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each other Agent and each Bank against any transfer, documentary stamp, registration, recording, excise, intangible or similar taxes, assessments or charges made by any Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of any Credit Document.
(b) Whether or not the Effective Date shall have occurred and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each other Agent, each Bank and their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, advisors and agents (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against all losses, settlement costs, liabilities, penalties, claims, damages or expenses that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) the Credit Documents, the use of the proceeds thereof, or any related transaction or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is a party thereto, and to reimburse each Indemnified Party promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing, provided that the foregoing indemnity and reimbursement obligations will not, as to any Indemnified Party, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent they are found in a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party as determined in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Funding Loss Indemnification The Borrower shall pay to the Liquidity Provider, upon the request of the Liquidity Provider, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of the Liquidity Provider) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Liquidity Provider to fund or maintain any LIBOR Advance (but excluding loss of the Applicable Margin or anticipated profits) incurred as a result of:
(1) Any repayment of a LIBOR Advance on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance; or
(2) Any failure by the Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Advance on the date for borrowing specified in the relevant notice under Section 2.02.
Tax Indemnification (a) Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a joint and several basis, each Recipient against any Indemnified Taxes (including those imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by a Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to a Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent against any amount that a Lender or Issuing Bank fails for any reason to pay indefeasibly to Agent as required pursuant to this Section. Each Borrower shall make payment within 10 days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender or Issuing Bank (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b) Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a several basis, (i) Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank (but only to the extent Borrowers have not already paid or reimbursed Agent therefor and without limiting Borrowers’ obligation to do so), (ii) Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participant register as required hereunder, and (iii) Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by Agent or an Obligor in connection with any Obligations, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall make payment within 10 days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or Issuing Bank by Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b) The Credit Parties agree to indemnify the Agents, the Issuing Lender and each Lender, and each of their Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and controlled parties of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel (and environmental consultants or professionals) for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Credit Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Credit Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Lenders to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on, at, under or from any Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or formerly owned, leased or otherwise operated by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any liability under Environmental Laws related in any way to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence, breach of this Agreement or other Credit Documents or willful misconduct of such Indemnitees or (v) any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other similar taxes (other than withholding taxes), if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, any Credit Document and any such other documents.
(c) To the extent that a Credit Party fails to pay any amount required to be paid by them to an Agent or an Issuing Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this subsection 11.5, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent or each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s or Revolving Credit Lender’s, as the case may be, pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent or such Issuing Lender in its capacity as such.

(g) The Credit Parties agree that any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this subsection 11.5) or any other Credit Document shall (i) survive payment in full of the Obligations, (ii) survive the release of all or any portion of the Collateral and (iii) inure to the benefit of any Person that was at any time an Indemnitee under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.
Mandatory Indemnification; Indemnification as a Witness (i) To the extent that Indemnitee shall have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event or any portion thereof or in defense of any issue or matter therein, including without limitation dismissal without prejudice, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Losses relating to such Claim in accordance with Section 2 to the fullest extent allowable by law, and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 8(b)) shall be required.
(ii) To the extent that Xxxxxxxxxx’s involvement in a Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event is to prepare to serve and serve as a witness, and not as a party, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Losses incurred in connection therewith to the fullest extent allowable by law and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 8(b)) shall be required.
Liability for Taxes (i) Seller shall be liable for and pay, and pursuant to ARTICLE XI shall indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer Group Member from and against any and all Losses and Expenses incurred by such Buyer Group Member in connection with or arising from (A) Taxes imposed on the Company or for which the Company may otherwise be liable as a result of having been a member of a Company Group (including Taxes for which the Company may be liable pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.1502-6 or similar provisions of state, local or foreign law as a result of having been a member of a Company Group and any Taxes resulting from the ceasing to be a member of any Company Group) and (B) Taxes imposed on the Company or for which the Company may otherwise be liable for any taxable year or period that ends on or before the Closing Date and the portion of any Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Tax Period”), except, in each case, to the extent such Taxes were included on the Closing Date Balance Sheet and taken into account in determining the Adjusted Purchase Price.
(ii) For purposes of paragraph (a)(i), whenever it is necessary to determine the liability for Taxes of the Company for a Straddle Period, the determination of the Taxes of the Company for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date shall be determined by assuming that the Straddle Period consisted of two taxable years or periods, one which ended at the close of the Closing Date and the other which began at the beginning of the day following the Closing Date and items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit of the Company for the Straddle Period shall be allocated between such two taxable years or periods on a “closing of the books basis” by assuming that the books of the Company were closed at the close of the Closing Date, provided, however, that exemptions, allowances, deductions or Taxes that are calculated on an annual basis, such as property Taxes and depreciation deductions, shall be apportioned between such two taxable years or periods on a daily basis.
(iii) Seller shall be entitled to the amount of any refund or credit of Taxes of the Company (including any interest relating thereto) with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such Taxes were paid by the Company prior to the Closing or by a Seller after the Closing pursuant to Section 8.2(a) or ARTICLE XI which refund or credit is actually recognized by Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company) after the Closing, net of any cost to Buyer and its Affiliates attributable to the obtaining and receipt of such refund or credit, except to the extent such refund or credit arises as the result of a carryback of a loss or other tax benefit from a Tax period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date or such refund or credit was included on the Closing Date Balance Sheet and taken into account in determining the Adjusted Purchase Price. Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller any amount to which Seller is entitled pursuant to the prior sentence within fifteen (15) days of the receipt or recognition of the applicable refund or credit by Buyer or its Subsidiaries. To the extent requested by Seller, Buyer will reasonably cooperate with Seller in obtaining such refund or credit, including through the filing of amended Tax Returns for periods ending before or on the Closing Date or refund claims. To the extent such refund or credit is subsequently disallowed or required to be returned to the applicable Governmental Body, Seller agrees promptly to repay the amount of such refund or credit to Buyer. Buyer shall be entitled to any refund or credit with respect to Taxes (including any interest relating thereto) that results from the carryback of losses, credits or similar items from a taxable year or period that begins after the Closing Date and is attributable to the Company and, to the extent such refund is actually received by Seller or its Affiliates, any such refund or credit shall be paid by Seller to Buyer within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of such refund by Seller. Buyer shall be entitled to any refund or credit included on the Closing Date Balance Sheet and taken into account in determining the Adjusted Purchase Price. Buyer and Seller shall take reasonable steps as may be requested by the other Party to obtain any refund or credit to which such Party is entitled under this subparagraph (iii).
(iv) Buyer shall be liable for and pay, and pursuant to ARTICLE XI shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all Losses incurred by Seller in connection with or arising from any real property transfer Tax, sales Tax, use Tax, stamp Tax, stock transfer Tax, or other similar Tax imposed on the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Indemnification; Expenses (a) The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender, and its directors, officers, employees, and agents (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower arising out of or as a result of (i) the Lender being party to this Loan Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of proceeds therefrom, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
(b) Subject to Section 2.8, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender, within thirty (30) days after written demand (which shall include reasonable documentation), any and all reasonable costs, expenses, and fees incurred by the Lender including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Lender in connection with the collection, enforcement, preservation or protection of its rights in connection with this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made.
