The termination of any Action by judgment or settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. 10.3 Any indemnification under Section 10.2 shall be limited by the provisions of the TRLPA and shall be made by the Partnership only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth therein.

Any allocation of fees and expenses between the Partnership and such person made by legal counsel shall be final and binding upon the Partnership and such person. 10.6 The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided in this Article X shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership may be entitled under any contract, agreement or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such position or office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person. 10.7 The Partnership shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership, or is or was serving at the request of the Partnership as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article X.
