Certain Agreements of the Company and the Selling Stockholders The Company agrees with the several Underwriters and the Selling Stockholders that:
Covenants of the Company and the Selling Stockholders The Company and each Selling Stockholder covenant with each Underwriter as follows:
INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY AND THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP (a) The Company and the Operating Partnership, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, as well as their respective officers, directors, equity holders, members, partners, stockholders, other equity holders and employees (collectively, the “Indemnitees,” and each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against all losses, claims, damages, losses, joint or several, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts (collectively, “Losses,” and each, a “Loss”) arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such Losses are not fully reimbursed by insurance, and to the extent that such indemnification would not be inconsistent with the laws of the State of New York, the Articles of Incorporation or the provisions of Section II.G of the NASAA REIT Guidelines. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Operating Partnership shall not provide for indemnification of an Indemnitee for any Loss suffered by such Indemnitee, nor shall they provide that an Indemnitee be held harmless for any Loss suffered by the Company and the Operating Partnership, unless all the following conditions are met:
(i) the Indemnitee has determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was in the best interest of the Company and the Operating Partnership;
(ii) the Indemnitee was acting on behalf of, or performing services for, the Company or the Operating Partnership;
(iii) such Loss was not the result of negligence or willful misconduct by the Indemnitee; and
(iv) such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the Company’s net assets and not from the Stockholders.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnitee shall not be indemnified by the Company and the Operating Partnership for any Losses arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws by such Indemnitee unless one or more of the following conditions are met:
(i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the Indemnitee;
(ii) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the Indemnitee; or
(iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against the Indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Company or the Operating Partnership were offered or sold as to indemnification for violation of securities laws.
(c) In addition, the advancement of the Company’s or the Operating Partnership’s funds to an Indemnitee for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any legal action for which indemnification is being sought is permissible only if all the following conditions are satisfied:
(i) the legal action relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company or the Operating Partnership;
(ii) the legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a Stockholder or the legal action is initiated by a Stockholder acting in such Stockholder’s capacity as such and a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves such advancement; and
(iii) the Indemnitee undertakes to repay the advanced funds to the Company or the Operating Partnership, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, in cases in which such Indemnitee is found not to be entitled to indemnification.
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 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.
