Related to Indemnification Manner of Claims

• Waiver of Claims; Indemnification To the extent not prohibited by law, and excluding the negligence of Landlord, its employees, agents, servants, contractors, or invitees, Landlord and its officers, agents, servants and employees shall not be liable for any damage either to person or property or resulting from the loss of use thereof sustained by Tenant or by other persons due to the Building or any part thereof or any appurtenances thereof becoming out of repair, or due to the happening or any accident or event in or about the Building, or due to any act or neglect of any tenant or occupant of the Building or of any other person. This provision shall apply particularly (but not exclusively) to damage caused by gas, electricity, snow, frost, steam, sewage, sewer gas or odors, fire, water or by the bursting or leaking of pipes, faucets, sprinklers, plumbing fixtures, and windows, and shall apply without distinction as to the person whose act or neglect was responsible for the damage and whether the damage was due to any of the causes specifically enumerated above or to some other cause of an entirely different kind. Tenant further agrees that all personal property upon the Premises, or upon-loading docks, receiving and holding areas, or freight elevators of the Building, shall be at the risk of Tenant only, and that Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage thereto or theft thereof. Without limitation of any other provisions thereof, Tenant agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and save harmless Landlord from and against all liability to third parties arising out of the acts of Tenant and its servants, agents, employees, contractors, suppliers, workmen and invitees. This Section shall be reciprocal in effect between Landlord and Tenant, and Landlord except the trustee agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and save harmless Tenant from and against all liability to third parties arising out of the acts of Landlord and its servants, agents, employees, contractors, suppliers, workmen and invitees. 14.

• Indemnification Claims (a) In the event the Parent or the Company Stockholders are entitled, or seek to assert rights, to indemnification under this Article VI, the Parent or the Company Stockholders (as the case may be) shall give written notification to the Company Stockholders or the Parent (as the case may be) of the commencement of any suit or proceeding relating to a third party claim for which indemnification pursuant to this Article VI may be sought. Such notification shall be given within 20 Business Days after receipt by the party seeking indemnification of notice of such suit or proceeding, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the party seeking indemnification) the facts constituting the basis for such suit or proceeding and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the party seeking indemnification in notifying the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure. Within 20 days after delivery of such notification, the indemnifying party may, upon written notice thereof to the party seeking indemnification, assume control of the defense of such suit or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the party seeking indemnification; provided that the indemnifying party may not assume control of the defense of a suit or proceeding involving criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the party seeking indemnification. If the indemnifying party does not so assume control of such defense, the party seeking indemnification shall control such defense. The party not controlling such defense (the “Non-Controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense; provided that if the indemnifying party assumes control of such defense and the party seeking indemnification reasonably concludes that the indemnifying party and the party seeking indemnification have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such suit or proceeding, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the party seeking indemnification shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement. The party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) shall keep the Non-Controlling Party advised of the status of such suit or proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-Controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-Controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such suit or proceeding (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such suit or proceeding. The indemnifying party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the party seeking indemnification, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the consent of the party seeking indemnification shall not be required if the indemnifying party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a complete release of the party seeking indemnification from further liability and has no other materially adverse effect on the party seeking indemnification. The party seeking indemnification shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

• Indemnification Claim Procedures (a) If any Action is commenced or threatened that may give rise to a claim for indemnification (an “Indemnification Claim”) by any person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against any person obligated to indemnify an Indemnified Party (an “Indemnitor”), then such Indemnified Party will promptly give notice to the Indemnitor. Failure to notify the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent the defense of such Action is materially and irrevocably prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice. An Indemnitor may elect at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Indemnification Claim with counsel of the Indemnitor’s choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnitor will not approve of the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Indemnification Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval (which must not be withheld unreasonably). Until an Indemnitor assumes the defense of the Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against the Indemnification Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party reasonably deems appropriate. If the Indemnified Party gives an Indemnitor notice of an Indemnification Claim and the Indemnitor does not, within ten (10) days after such notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Indemnification Claim and thereafter promptly assume such defense, then the Indemnitor will be bound by any judicial determination made with respect to such Indemnification Claim or any compromise or settlement of such Indemnification Claim effected by the Indemnified Party.

• Indemnification and Release a. The Parent and the Non-LNG Subsidiaries hereby, jointly and severally: (a) indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and the Creditor, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, equityholders, attorneys, consultants and agents (each, a “Creditor Indemnitee”), from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements, which may be incurred by or asserted against any Creditor Indemnitee in any investigation, litigation, suit or action arising out of or relating to (i) the release pursuant hereto of any security interest, lien, encumbrance or other charge granted to the Collateral Agent (on behalf the Creditor), or (ii) the release of any of the LNG Parties from its respective liabilities under the Guaranty; provided, however, that the Parent and the Non-LNG Parties shall not be required to indemnify any Creditor Indemnitee from or against any portion of such claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Creditor Indemnitee, as determined by a final nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; (b) agree to pay all costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Release, Consent and Waiver, and the performance of any other acts and the execution of any other documents required to effect the release of any security interest pursuant hereto, including (without limitation) the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Collateral Agent and the Creditor; (c) agree to pay any and all stamp and other transfer or filing taxes and fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery hereof or any release document pursuant hereto, and to hold each Creditor Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes or fees; and (d) release each Creditor Indemnitee from any duty, liability or obligation (if any) under the Notes or any other Existing Transaction Document in respect of the LNG Property and the release of the security interests therein pursuant hereto.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE PARTNERSHIP SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS EACH INDEMNITEE FROM AND AGAINST ALL LOSSES, COSTS, CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES, EXPENSES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, COSTS OF SUIT AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES) SUCH INDEMNITEE MAY INCUR IN CONNECTION WITH THE GENERAL PARTNER’S PERFORMING ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOSSES, COSTS, CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES AND EXPENSES ARISING FROM, OR ALLEGED TO ARISE FROM, THE INDEMNITEE’S ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, SOLE OR CONCURRENT, NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE), AND THE PARTNERSHIP SHALL ADVANCE EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEFENSE OF ANY ACTION RELATED THERETO; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO ACTIONS WHICH HAVE BEEN FINALLY, WITHOUT FURTHER RIGHT TO APPEAL, JUDICIALLY DETERMINED TO CONSTITUTE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR BAD FAITH. IF THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED FOR ABOVE IS NOT PERMITTED OR ENFORCEABLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW OR IS OTHERWISE UNAVAILABLE OR INSUFFICIENT TO HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AS CONTEMPLATED ABOVE, THEN THE PARTNERSHIP SHALL CONTRIBUTE TO THE AMOUNT PAID OR PAYABLE BY THE INDEMNITEES AS A RESULT OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES AND EXPENSES REFERRED TO ABOVE IN SUCH PROPORTION AS IS APPROPRIATE TO REFLECT THE RELATIVE BENEFITS CONTEMPLATED TO BE RECEIVED BY THE PARTNERSHIP AND THE INDEMNITEES, RESPECTIVELY, FROM THE ACTIONS GIVING RISE TO SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES OR EXPENSES.

• Release Indemnification (a) In further consideration of Agent’s and Lenders’ execution of this Amendment, each Credit Party, individually and on behalf of its successors (including, without limitation, any trustees acting on behalf of such Credit Party and any debtor-in-possession with respect to such Credit Party), assigns, subsidiaries and affiliates, hereby forever releases Agent and each Lender and their respective successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, employees, directors, agents and attorneys (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all debts, claims, demands, liabilities, responsibilities, disputes, causes, damages, actions and causes of actions (whether at law or in equity) and obligations of every nature whatsoever, whether liquidated or unliquidated, whether known or unknown, matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent (collectively, “Claims”) that such Credit Party may have against the Releasees which arise from or relate to any actions which the Releasees may have taken or omitted to take in connection with the Obligations, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents prior to the date this Amendment was executed, including, without limitation, with respect to the Obligations, any Collateral, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document and any third parties liable in whole or in part for the Obligations, other than debts, claims, demands, liabilities, responsibilities, disputes, causes of action and obligations to the extent they result from any Releasee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This provision shall survive and continue in full force and effect whether or not the Credit Parties shall satisfy all other provisions of this Amendment, the Loan Documents or the Credit Agreement, including payment in full of all Obligations.

• Third-Party Claim Indemnification Procedures (a) In the event that any written claim or demand for which an indemnifying party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to any Indemnified Party hereunder, other than those relating to Taxes (which are the exclusive subject of Article X), is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than ten (10) days following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of a Third-Party Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third-Party Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third-Party Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure timely to give a Claim Notice shall affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder only to the extent that such failure has a material prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days (or such lesser number of days set forth in the Claim Notice as may be required by court proceeding in the event of a litigated matter) after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party that it desires to assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim.

• Indemnification Matters The Company hereby acknowledges that one (1) or more of the directors nominated to serve on the Board of Directors by the Investors (each a “Fund Director”) may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by one or more of the Investors and certain of their affiliates (collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees (a) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to any such Fund Director are primary and any obligation of the Fund Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by such Fund Director are secondary), (b) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by such Fund Director and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement by or on behalf of any such Fund Director to the extent legally permitted and as required by the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company (or any agreement between the Company and such Fund Director), without regard to any rights such Fund Director may have against the Fund Indemnitors, and, (c) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of any such Fund Director with respect to any claim for which such Fund Director has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Fund Director against the Company.

• Procedure for Indemnification; Notification and Defense of Claim (a) Promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company hereunder, notify the Company in writing of the commencement thereof. The failure to promptly notify the Company of the commencement of the action, suit or proceeding, or of Indemnitee’s request for indemnification, will not relieve the Company from any liability that it may have to Indemnitee hereunder, except to the extent the Company is actually and materially prejudiced in its defense of such action, suit or proceeding as a result of such failure. To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request therefor including such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to enable the Company to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification.

• Indemnification; Third Party Claims (a) The Special Servicer and any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, member, manager or agent of the Special Servicer (the “Special Servicer Indemnified Parties”) shall be indemnified and held harmless out of the proceeds of the Mortgage Loans, any Serviced Companion Loans and any B Notes (including REO Loans), against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (“Special Servicer Losses”) incurred in connection with any legal action relating to (i) this Agreement, any Mortgage Loans, any Serviced Companion Loans, any B Notes, any REO Property or the Certificates or any exercise of any right under this Agreement reasonably requiring the use of counsel or the incurring of expenses and (ii) any action properly taken by the Special Servicer in accordance with this Agreement based on an instruction delivered in writing to the Special Servicer by the Trustee, the Controlling Class Representative or the Master Servicer pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and the Special Servicer and each of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, members, managers and agents shall be entitled to indemnification from the Trust for any loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the provision by the Special Servicer of any information included by the Special Servicer in the report required to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, in each case other than any loss, liability or expense: (A) specifically required to be borne by the party seeking indemnification, without right of reimbursement pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (B) which constitutes a Servicing Advance that is otherwise reimbursable under this Agreement; (C) incurred in connection with any legal action or claim against the party seeking indemnification, resulting from any breach on the part of that party of a representation or warranty made in this Agreement; or (D) incurred in connection with any legal action or claim against the party seeking indemnification, resulting from any willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence on the part of that party in the performance of its obligations or duties under this Agreement or negligent disregard of such obligations or duties. Except as provided in the following sentence, indemnification for Special Servicer Losses described in the preceding paragraph (including in the case of such Special Servicer Losses that relate primarily to the administration of the Trust, to any REMIC Pool or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense) shall be paid out of collections on, and other proceeds of, the Mortgage Loans as a whole but not out of collections on, or other proceeds of, any Serviced Companion Loan or any B Note. In the case of any such Special Servicer Losses that do not relate primarily to the administration of the Trust, to any REMIC Pool or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense:
