Indemnification by Stockholders Subject to the other provisions of this ARTICLE 9, from and after the Closing, the Stockholders (the “Stockholders Indemnifying Party”), severally and not jointly, shall indemnify JAC, and each of its Affiliates and each of its respective Representatives, and successors and assigns, as the case may be (the “JAC Indemnified Parties”) and hold each of them harmless from and against, and reimburse and pay each of them as actually incurred with respect to, any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, deficiencies, actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments, judgments, penalties, diminutions in value, lost earnings, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation, suffered or paid by them (collectively, “Losses”) as a result and to the extent arising out of: (i) any breach of any representations or warranties by the Company or any Stockholder; and (ii) any breach by the Company or any Stockholder of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement that are required to be performed prior to the Closing Date (“JAC Indemnifiable Claims”). The JAC Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification (which may be asserted by the JAC Representative on behalf of JAC and the JAC Indemnified Parties) under this ARTICLE 9 (other than with respect to JAC Indemnifiable Claims under clauses (ii) or (iii) above) unless the aggregate of all of the Indemnifying Party’s obligations to indemnify the JAC Indemnified Parties pursuant to this ARTICLE 9 exceeds $1,000,000 (the “Basket”), and once this threshold has been exceeded, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the JAC Indemnified Parties for all of such obligations, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.3 hereof.
Indemnification of Shareholders If any Shareholder or former Shareholder of any Series is held personally liable solely by reason of his or her being or having been a Shareholder and not because of his or her acts or omissions or for some other reason, the Shareholder or former Shareholder (or his or her heirs, executors, administrators or other legal representatives or, in the case of any entity, its general successor) shall be entitled out of the assets belonging to the applicable Series to be held harmless from and indemnified against all loss and expense arising from such liability. The Trust, on behalf of the affected Series, shall, upon request by such Shareholder or former Shareholder, assume the defense of any claim made against him or her for any act or obligation of the Series and satisfy any judgment thereon from the assets belonging to the Series.
Indemnification by the Shareholders The Shareholders severally (and not jointly) shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Purchaser Indemnitees for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees or to which any of the Purchaser Indemnitees may otherwise become subject (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with:
(a) any Breach by the Shareholders of any representation or warranty of the Shareholders contained in this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement;
(b) any Breach of any covenant of the Shareholders contained in this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement; and
(c) any Proceeding relating directly or indirectly to any Breach, alleged Breach, Liability or matter of the type referred to in clauses "(a)" or "(b)" above (including any Proceeding commenced by any Purchaser Indemnitee for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights under this Section 6). The Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.2 until the total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such Breach and all other Damages arising from any other Breaches of any representations or warranties pursuant to this Section 6.2 (and excluding any Damages arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below)) exceeds $100,000 (the "Basket Amount") (it being understood and agreed that the Basket Amount is intended as a deductible, and the Shareholders will not be liable for the first $100,000 of Damages for which the Purchaser Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Basket Amount shall apply to (a) claims based on fraud or any claim in the nature of fraud or (b) claims arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below. Subject to Sections 6.3 and 7.14 below, all of the indemnification obligations of either of the Shareholders shall be satisfied exclusively by deduction from the Escrow Shares; provided, that, each Shareholder may elect, at its sole option, to satisfy such indemnification obligation in cash (the "Shareholder Cap"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Breach of any covenant (or any Proceeding relating directly or indirectly to any such failure or Breach) of the Shareholders contained in Sections 1.1, 1.2(b), 1.2(c), 1.4, 1.6, 4.1, 4.2(b), 6.1(e), 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 7.7, 7.8, 7.10 or 7.12 of this Agreement shall be satisfied exclusively by the payment in cash of the amount thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no limitation shall apply to (a) claims based on fraud or any claim in the nature of fraud or (b) claims arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below. For purposes of the indemnity obligations under Section 6, the value per share of Purchaser Series 1 Stock shall be deemed to be the Series 1 Value on the date of a written settlement agreement executed on behalf of the indemnifying party or parties or on the date of receipt of a final, non-appealable judgment issued by a court of competent jurisdiction; any indemnification obligation that may be satisfied by the surrender of Escrow Shares shall be satisfied by transfer of that number of Escrow Shares with a value (based on such Series 1 Value) equal to the amount of the indemnification obligation.
Indemnification of the Purchaser Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.6, SMSA will indemnify and hold the Purchaser and his representatives and agents (each, a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by SMSA in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against Purchaser in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of SMSA who is not an Affiliate of Purchaser, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is pleaded with particularity as follows and based upon a breach of Purchaser’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings Purchaser may have with any such stockholder or any violations by Purchaser of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by Purchaser which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance). If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, Purchaser Party shall promptly notify SMSA in writing, and SMSA shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by SMSA in writing, (ii) SMSA has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of SMSA and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case SMSA shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. SMSA will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without SMSA’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.
Indemnification of the Escrow Agent In consideration of the benefits to be derived by Seller from the Split-Off Escrow Agreement, as a third-party beneficiary under the Split-Off Escrow Agreement, Seller shall, from and at all times after the date of the Split-Off Escrow Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent and each partner, director, officer, employee, attorney, agent and affiliate of Escrow Agent (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), to the fullest extent permitted by law and to the extent provided herein, against any and all actions, claims (whether or not valid), losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and expenses) incurred by or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties from and after the date hereof, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or in any way relating to any claim, demand, suit, action, or proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) by any person, including without limitation the parties to the Split-Off Escrow Agreement, whether threatened or initiated, asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any person under any statute or regulation, including, but not limited to, any federal or state securities laws, or under any common law or equitable cause or otherwise, arising from or in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, performance or failure of performance of the Split-Off Escrow Agreement or any transaction contemplated herein, whether or not any such Indemnified Party is a party to any such action or proceeding, suit or the target of any such inquiry or investigation; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for liability finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, subject to no further appeal, to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. The obligations of the parties under this section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
Indemnification by Shareholders Each Shareholder shall, severally and not jointly, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless REIT, its subsidiaries each of their respective trustees, directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents, in their capacity as such and each Person, if any, who controls REIT within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “REIT Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Covered Liabilities suffered, directly or indirectly, by any REIT Indemnified Party by reason of or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement under which the sale of Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act (or any amendment thereto), or any Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, or free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) related to such Registration Statement or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to REIT by such Shareholder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that (i) the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Covered Liability if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Shareholder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and (ii) in no event shall the total amounts payable in indemnity by a Shareholder under this Section 5.2 exceed the net proceeds received by such Shareholder in the registered offering out of which such Covered Liability arises. The indemnity in this Section 5.2 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any REIT Indemnified Person. For the avoidance of doubt, a Shareholder is not a “REIT Indemnified Party.”
Indemnification of the Underwriters by the Selling Stockholders Each of the Selling Stockholders severally and not jointly in proportion to the number of Shares to be sold by such Selling Stockholder hereunder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to such losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission to state a material fact made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information furnished by such Selling Stockholder in writing to the Company relating to such Selling Stockholder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this Agreement, the only information so furnished by such Selling Stockholder consists of such Selling Stockholder’s Selling Stockholder Information; provided that the liability under this subsection of each Selling Stockholder shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate gross proceeds after underwriting commissions and discounts, but before deducting expenses, to such Selling Stockholder from the sale of Stock sold by such Selling Stockholder hereunder.
Indemnification of the Company and the Selling Stockholders The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each of the Selling Stockholders to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to the Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by the Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Pricing Disclosure Package, it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by the Underwriter consists of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of the Underwriter: the concession figure appearing in the sixth paragraph and the information concerning short selling and purchasing contained in the eleventh and twelfth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting” (collectively, the “Underwriter Information”).

The Corporation shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Corporation is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Annex A.
