Indemnity Payments 4.1. Any indemnity payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by the Indemnifying Parties to the Indemnified Party in full, without any set off, counterclaim, restriction or condition and without any deduction or withholding (save as may be required by applicable Law or as otherwise agreed in this Agreement or in writing between the Parties). If Tax must be withheld / deducted, or any other Tax is payable in relation to indemnity payments, such additional amounts must be paid by the Indemnifying Party as may be necessary to ensure that the Indemnified Party receives a net amount equal to the full amount which it would have received had payment not been made subject to such Tax or withholding or deductions.
4.2. Any indemnity payments made by the Indemnifying Parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be effected by crediting for same day value the account specified by the Indemnified Party on behalf of the party entitled to the payment (reasonably in advance and in sufficient detail to enable payment by electronic transfer to be effected) on or before the due date for payment.
4.3. The Parties agree that the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified by the Company with respect to its indemnification event (in its capacity as the Indemnifying Party) and the amount of such indemnification payment shall be grossed-up by the Company to take into account the fact that the Indemnified Party as a shareholder of the Company may be indirectly paying a portion of such indemnification payment.
4.4. To the extent the payment by the Indemnifying Party of any indemnification payment pursuant to the provisions of Clause 7 (Indemnification) shall be subject to receipt of approvals from any Governmental Authority (if required), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall be responsible for obtaining all such approvals from any Governmental Authority and shall make all applications and take all steps required to obtain the same. Alternatively, if mutually agreed between the Parties, with both Parties acting reasonably, the claim amount (that is, the Loss) shall be paid to any Affiliate or nominee of the Indemnified Party.
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/Liability You shall indemnify, and hold harmless RIM, the RIM Group of Companies, RIM's affiliates, suppliers, successors, agents, authorised distributors, (including Airtime Service Providers) and assigns and each of their directors, officers, employees and independent contractors (each a "RIM Indemnified Party") from any damages, losses, costs or expenses (including reasonable lawyers’ fees and costs) incurred by a RIM Indemnified Party, and at the RIM Indemnified Party’s request defend at Your expense any third party claim or proceeding brought against the RIM Indemnified Party, arising from: (a) infringement of patents or other intellectual property or proprietary rights arising from combining with or using any device (other than a BlackBerry Handheld Product), system or service in connection with Your BlackBerry Solution or any portion thereof; or (b) Your breach of this Agreement or any Addendum to this Agreement. No remedy herein conferred upon RIM is intended to be, nor shall it be construed to be, exclusive of any other remedy provided herein or as allowed by law or in equity, but all such remedies shall be cumulative.
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 Determinations Indemnification of an Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 8.4 shall be made if (a) the court or body before whom the proceeding is brought determines, in a final decision on the merits, that such Indemnified Person was not liable by reason of Disabling Conduct or (b) in the absence of such a determination, a majority of a quorum of disinterested, non-party Trustees or independent legal counsel in a written opinion make a reasonable determination, based upon a review of the facts, that such Indemnified Person was not liable by reason of Disabling Conduct. In making such a determination, the Board of Trustees of the Trust shall act in conformity with then applicable law and administrative interpretations, and shall afford a Trustee requesting indemnification who is not an “interested person” of the Trust, as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, a rebuttable presumption that such Trustee did not engage in disabling conduct while acting in his capacity as a Trustee.
Indemnity/Hold Harmless The Union agrees to indemnify and hold the District harmless against any and all liabilities (including reasonable and necessary costs of litigation) arising from any and all claims, demands, suits, or other actions relating to the District's compliance or attempted compliance with either this Article or the requests of the Union pursuant to this Article, or relating to the conduct of the Union in administering this Article. The Union shall have the right to determine and decide all matters relating to settlement and conduct of litigation with respect to this Article. In no case shall District funds be involved in any remedy relating to this Article. Any underpayments to the Union resulting from the District's failure to make a required deduction shall be remedied by additional deductions from the affected employee(s). Any overpayments to the Union resulting from excessive deductions shall be remedied either by refund from the Union to the affected employee(s) or by a credit against future payments by the affected employee(s).
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.
Indemnification Notice In the event that: (i) an event occurs which gives a Person a right to indemnification hereunder; or (ii) any third party claim is asserted against a Person with respect to which such Person is entitled to indemnification hereunder, such Person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, within sixty (60) days of the later of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim or the date that the indemnified party learned of such claim (provided, however, that if a claim arises by virtue of litigation, then in no event less than ten (10) days prior to the date in which an appearance or answer is due, whichever is earlier), notify the Person obligated to indemnify it (the “Indemnifying Party”) of such claim by delivery of a written notice describing the claim and indicating the basis for indemnification hereunder. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days after receipt from the Indemnified Party of notice of such claim, to conduct at its expenses the defense against such claim in its own name, or if necessary in the name of the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to give such notice, it shall be deemed to have elected not to conduct the defense of the subject claim, and in such event the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct such defense and, only with the prior consent of the Indemnifying Party which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to compromise and settle the claim. In the event that the Indemnifying Party does elect to conduct the defense of the subject claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance and materials as may be reasonably requested by it, all at the expense of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in the defense, provided that the Indemnified Party will have the right to compromise and settle the claim only with the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. Any settlement to which the Indemnifying Party shall have consented in writing shall conclusively be deemed to be an obligation with respect to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder.
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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, payments in respect of amounts claimed by the Lender under this Section 6.4 shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.
Determination That Indemnification Is Proper Any indemnification hereunder shall (unless otherwise ordered by a court) be made by the Corporation unless a determination is made that indemnification of such person is not proper in the circumstances because he or she has not met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1(b) hereof. Any such determination shall be made (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question (“disinterested directors”), even if less than a quorum, (ii) by a majority vote of a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote of disinterested directors, even if less than a quorum, (iii) by a majority vote of a quorum of the outstanding shares of stock of all classes entitled to vote on the matter, voting as a single class, which quorum shall consist of stockholders who are not at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question, (iv) by independent legal counsel, or (v) by a court of competent jurisdiction.
