Liabilities of Partners. (a) Pursuant to the Delaware Act, the General Partners are liable jointly and severally for all liabilities and obligations of the Partnership. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as among themselves, the General Partners hereby agree that each shall be solely and individually responsible only for his pro rata share (based on Capital Contributions made) of the liabilities and obligations of the Partnership, and any General Partner who incurs liability in excess of his pro rata share shall be entitled to contribution from the other General Partners. Pursuant hereto, the Managing Partner further agrees to indemnify each General Partner for any and all Partnership-related obligations and liabilities otherwise allocable to or paid by such General Partner which are in excess of such General Partner’s share of the Partnership’s undistributed assets. Under no circumstances shall any Partner be required to indemnify the Managing Partner, except to the extent of such Partner’s (i) Capital Contribution and (ii) share of Partnership assets. (b) The Partnership may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of all Partners against any liabilities asserted against or expenses incurred by the Partners in connection with Partnership activities, provided that the Partnership shall not incur the costs of that portion of such insurance, if any, which insures the Managing Partner for any liability with respect to which the Managing Partner is denied indemnification under the provisions of this Agreement. Such insurance may be in such amounts as the Managing Partner shall determine is sufficient to protect the Partners from the maximum amount of such liabilities and expenses.
